Mr. Beridon received your requests for information and returned data which you have compiled in an Microsoft® Excel® spreadsheet (see document template). He also said, "We grow sod and trees at Jeemp Farms. We sell the sod mainly to home builders in the area, although we sell to some individuals who are purchasing square footages to re-sod their yard. Many home builders will purchase to sod an entire subdivision. They then may come back to us to purchase trees for the yards. It really is a package deal. For builders like that, we are a one-stop-shop. In most cases, however, we sell the trees to orchards and some individuals. The purchaser is responsible for all shipping costs related to their product." "Our production process is different for each product. For sod, we plant the seed, irrigate, cut, and roll the sod and then transport it. For the trees, we plant the root stock, graft the tree, water until a particular maturity and then dig it up and sell it. We inspect the plants as needed to make sure we are producing a quality product that is disease-free." "We have delayed purchasing some machinery that reduces time for the planting of the trees because it is a large up-front cost and we don't want to have a huge outlay of cash if our profits keep going down." "The grass does not require as much irrigation as the trees, as it is at a lower elevation than the tree acres and is closer to the creek; it gets a lot of the run off." "Historically, we have always been able to sell everything we produce. Hopefully, that will continue since Houston is expanding rapidly." Compute the product costs for the sod and trees under traditional and ABC costing using the Microsoft® Excel® spreadsheet. Write a 700- to 1,050-word paper analyzing Jeemp Farms and what data and information you will consider. Include the following:
Justify whether Mr. Beridon should cut the tree portion of his company instead.
Describe other methods of analysis you could use to help you come to a decision.

There is a famous line from Shakespeare “Beware the Ides of March.” We are almost there. The topic currently is The Yield Curve. Please, for this posting go to https://www.treasury.gov/resource-center/data-chart-center/interest-rates/Pages/TextView.aspx?data=yield and get some data about the yield curve and use that data to answer this question. You can download a Word version of this document at the bottom of this page. The basic idea is to look at the data for the yield curve for March 1, 2018 and compare it with the yield curve for some reference date. You have these choices for a reference date: 1) your birthday (if you want to share), 2) a date that is important to your family (if you want to share), 3) a date at least 5 years ago but not more than 10 years ago (you have to tell the class what the date is), 4) your date cannot be within 2 weeks (plus or minus) of a date chosen by a previous poster. For this posting you are to do the following Describe the yield curve on March 1, 2018, it would be extra points if you make a graph of the yield curve and post it for part A. and B. Describe the yield curve on your reference date. Based on the yield curve on your reference date, what inferences can you draw about expected movements in interest rate based on their yield curve at that point it time. Fully explain these expectations. (Extra Bonus) What were the actual movements in interest rates after your reference date and how did the actual movements in interest rates compare with the expectations with the yield curve. If you don’t pursue the bonus of identifying actual movements in the interest rates following your expectations statement your classmates will be invited, as an IR statement, to compare your expectations with reality. This discussion posting is a “bit harder” than usual and I strongly suggest you read the text material about the yield curve carefully. Some interest rate analysis incorporate the yield curve into their expectations setting process for future interest rates. For most of this question there isn’t a “certainly right” answer.

The long-term care center has 225 beds and provides the highest level of patient care, according to ongoing Department of Health Services annual surveys. The Director of the long-term center has the overall responsibility of ensuring the continuing high level of quality outcomes while also concurrently keeping the facility as risk free as practical. You and the Director have just returned from an annual Long-Term Care Association symposium where you were both introduced to some new groundbreaking initiatives regarding the differences between risk management and quality improvement. Earlier in the week, the Director called for a meeting of the center’s department managers, including the Quality Assurance Nurse and the Manager of Risk Management. After briefing them on the symposium talking points, your Director asks you to come up with a working plan and strategy for how the facility will use both of the concepts you have introduced to arrive at a more centralized and standardized approach. Overall, the desired outcomes focus on adopting a new approach to higher quality with fewer risk factors for the organization. Later that week, the Manager of Risk Management, the Manager of Nursing Quality Assurance, and a representative from Human Resources met to formulate a new plan to reduce the litigation exposure while concurrently increasing the quality of patient outcomes. They set about the complex set of tasks with the expectation that you, as the Director’s designated facilitator, will be closely reviewing their final recommendations. Provide a 250-word executive summary of the research project and recommended plan of action that you will provide to the Director. Address the following: Questions: 1. What is the necessary background information needed to complete your executive summary?Who are the stakeholders? 2. How do the facility’s current Continuous Quality Improvement (CQI) outcomes correspond with the current litigation prevention systems? 3. What factors within the nursing units are the most critical to consider when examining higher quality outcomes? 4. What factors within the nursing units are the most critical to consider when examining lower litigation adverse actions and operational impact? 5. What future steps must be taken to accomplish this directive?

Question 1
You have reviewed the work performed by your assistant, Raymond Snow, on the audit of Tin Ltd for the year ended 30 June 20X8 and you have noted the following two independent matters: (i) In testing investments in listed securities, Raymond selected all shareholdings with a market value above $200,000 and checked them to the closing market value reported by the Australian Stock Exchange (ASX) to determine the net realisable value of each shareholding. The items tested totaled $5,500,000 or 60% of the total balance. Of the items tested, only one error of $110,000 was discovered. Raymond concluded that the error was not itself material, as it was only 2% of the balance tested. He extrapolated this error to the total population and estimated that the error for the total population would be $185,000, which was also immaterial. Therefore, he concluded that the investments in listed securities were fairly stated at the lower of cost or net realisable value.
(ii) Tin Ltd has 1,000 stock lines that are maintained on a perpetual inventory system. Stock is counted on a cyclical basis so that all lines are covered at least once per year. Raymond attended the March stocktake to observe the counting procedures and conducted 20 test counts from the floor to the client’s count sheets and 20 from the client’s count sheets to the floor. He uncovered two minor discrepancies of one item each, which he considered to be immaterial. The client also uncovered five minor discrepancies between the perpetual records and the actual quantity on hand. None of these discrepancies were adjusted on the perpetual records, as the amounts involved only totaled $50,000 and were considered to be immaterial. Raymond concluded that no further work was considered necessary on stock quantities at year end.
Required: (a) In your own words, explain what is meant by sufficient appropriate audit evidence. (b) Explain whether sufficient appropriate audit evidence has been obtained for each of the above situations. Give reasons for your answer. (Word Limit: Minimum of 250 words. Maximum of 300 words)
