Lakeside Inc. produces a product that currently sells for $78.00 per unit. Current production costs per unit include direct materials, $30; direct labor, $32; variable overhead, $15.00; and fixed overhead, $15.00. Product engineering has determined that certain production changes could refine the product quality and functionality. These new production changes would increase material and labor costs by 20% per unit. Lakeside has received an offer from a nonprofit organization to buy 10,000 units at $78.00 per unit. Lakeside currently has unused production capacity.

Required:
a. Calculate the effect on Lakeside's operating income of accepting the order from the nonprofit organization.

Explain how the sympathetic nervous system (and endocrine system) act Directly to regulate heart rate and thus cardiac

output. Include a detailed description of the mechanism (include the target cells, the proteins, signaling molecules, ions,

and changes in membrane pontial where appropriate) and explain how the mechanism operates to alter heart rate.

Explain how the parasympathetic nervous system acts to Directly regulate cardiac output (1 mechanism).

Discuss each mechanism separately including a detailed description of each mechanism (include the target cells,

the proteins, signaling molecules, ions, and changes in membrane pontial where appropriate). Make clear how

each affects cardiac output. This should require about half a page.

At a corporate board meeting, one of the members indicates that the FASB has passed a new accounting update to take effect concerning the nature of lease accounting. As of now the company has leases which are both capital in nature and operating. The company also has several forms of debt with banks. The board member asks you as the Chief Financial Officer to give a 5-10 minute presentation on a summary of changes and how those changes could impact the company.

I am still very confused on this, and my head feels like it's spinning, lol.

I also want to know "the company also has several forms of debt with banks", how would that be affected by this?

Help would be appreciated!

Interest rate risk is associated with the bonds price variability given a change in the interest rates.

Suppose you have BOND A, which is a 30 year zero coupon bond and BOND B, which is a 5 year 10% coupon bond. If interest rates (YTM) change from 8% to 7% the bonds will increase in value. Suppose BOND A's price changes from $99.38 to 121.71 and the 5 year 10% coupon bond price changes from $1079.85 to $1123.01. Which bond has the greatest percentage increase in value? Record the percentage increase in value of the bond with the highest percentage change below. Write the increase as a decimal, so a 5% increase would be written as 0.0500.

Accrual accounting matches revenue with expenses, however accruals can be used to manipulate income and expenses. In the Forbes Magazine article, “Cash Doesn’t Lie,” written by Daniel Fisher, the author discusses the use of negative accruals, changes to estimates and recognizing income before it is earned. Read the article and then:

a. Discuss the use of each of these three techniques and their effect on current and future earnings reporting.
b. How should changes of accounting estimates that significantly affect income be reported? Should they be regarded as a change in accounting principle?
c. Research revenue recognition and discuss the accounting rules violated that brought down the company Sunbeam.

PLEASE PROVIDE NEW DETAIL ANSWERS TO EACH QUESTION AND PLEASE NO HAND WRITTEN ANSWERS.

FASB has develop new accounting standards for accounting for leases. These new standards are not covered in your text book. Research the new FASB Lease Accounting Standards and answer the following questions:

1. Why did FASB develop new lease accounting standards?

2. How will accounting for leases change under these new standards?

3. When will the new standards take effect?

4. How will the changes effect companies who lease assets/

5. Based on your reading and research do you think companies are prepared for these changes?

Submit a paper containing your answers and observations concerning these questions and suggestions you would make to companies who are preparing to implement the new standards.

Both Bond A and Bond B have 8 percent coupons, make semiannual payments, and are priced at par value. Bond A has 3 years to maturity, whereas Bond B has 20 years to maturity.

a. If interest rates suddenly rise by 2 percent annually (to 10% annually right now), what would be the percentage changes in the prices of Bond A and Bond B?

b. If rates were to suddenly drop by 2 percent instead (to 6% right now), what would be the percentage changes in the prices of Bond A and Bond B?

c. What does this problem tell you about the interest rate risk of long-term bonds?

An extruded, rectangular polypropylene strut of width 9 mm, depth 3 mm and length 80 mm is to be loaded from the ends in compression along its length with a creep load of 40 N for one year. [Creep curves for polypropylene are shown below. The buckling load is given by F = (2 p/ L)2 E I. For a rectangular beam the second moment of area is given by I = (w d3) /12.].

In order to improve buckling resistance, explain with reference to the buckling equation, what changes are possible in either material or beam design, indicating any likely constraints on such changes.

Discuss the manufacturing problems (in terms of extruder system design) which must be considered in producing such a beam.
