The Gourmand Cooking School runs short cooking courses at its small campus. Management has identified two cost drivers it uses in its budgeting and performance reports—the number of courses and the total number of students. For example, the school might run two courses in a month and have a total of 64 students enrolled in those two courses. Data concerning the company’s cost formulas appear below:
| Fixed Cost per Month | Cost per Course | Cost per Student |
|||||
| Instructor wages | $ | 2,900 | |||||
| Classroom supplies | $ | 260 | |||||
| Utilities | $ | 1,220 | $ | 70 | |||
| Campus rent | $ | 4,500 | |||||
| Insurance | $ | 2,100 | |||||
| Administrative expenses | $ | 3,500 | $ | 42 | $ | 4 | |
For example, administrative expenses should be $3,500 per month plus $42 per course plus $4 per student. The company’s sales should average $900 per student.
The company planned to run four courses with a total of 64 students; however, it actually ran four courses with a total of only 54 students. The actual operating results for September appear below:
| Actual | ||
| Revenue | $ | 54,700 |
| Instructor wages | $ | 10,880 |
| Classroom supplies | $ | 16,490 |
| Utilities | $ | 1,910 |
| Campus rent | $ | 4,500 |
| Insurance | $ | 2,240 |
| Administrative expenses | $ | 3,350 |
Required:
Prepare a flexible budget performance report that shows both revenue and spending variances and activity variances for September. (Indicate the effect of each variance by selecting "F" for favorable, "U" for unfavorable, and "None" for no effect (i.e., zero variance). Input all amounts as positive values.)

Brian just graduated from engineering school and landed a sweet job earning $55000 per year. He expects his salary to increase by 4.4% per year. At the end of each year he will invest 10% of his salary into an investment account that earns 7.9.% per year compounded annually. He hopes to retire in 45 years. If all goes according to his plan, how much money will be in his retirement account when he retires? $
After working for almost a year Brian decides he would rather spend
Christmas in Mexico then put money in his retirement account. Each
year he finds something else he wants to do with his retirement
money until 15 years have passed and he realizes he has zero
savings. Sure enough his salary increased by exactly what he had
predicted over 15 years. He vows to start putting 10% of his salary
away each year from then on. If all goes according to plan how much
will be in his account after 30 more years when he reaches the age
he would like to retire? $
Brian is sad when he realizes how far he has fallen behind in his
retirement planning. He decides to buy a lottery ticket hoping that
he can use the winnings to put him back on track for his original
retirement prediction. How much does he need to win and invest at
the end of his 15th year working in order to get back to where he
would have been if he had followed his original plan?

Scenario: A 28-year-old elementary school teacher begins to exhibit uncharacteristic behaviors such as having multiple sexual partners, engaging in compulsive online shopping, barely sleeping, dressing in a more provocative fashion, and attending frequent “wild” parties. Friends and family report these recent behaviors as “totally unlike her,” describing her as a normally conservative, responsible person. Her cousin, who lives nearby, becomes concerned and accompanies the woman to a Crisis Unit where she is subsequently diagnosed with Bipolar Disorder and admitted to a Mental Health Unit. Initial Discussion Post: Address the following: What is the priority RN action for this client? Which medical concerns may be significant, considering this client’s recent behavior? Discuss what the RN would teach the client about Bipolar Disorder. Provide two 3-part nursing diagnosis statements that might be appropriate for this client. (Note: Each statement must include an actual NANDA-I nursing diagnosis [no risk-for diagnoses], related factor, and “as evidenced by.”)

Jack Lane, a 54-year-old male client who teaches history at the local high school, is seen at the outpatient surgical center for a left inguinal herniorrhaphy via a laparoscopic approach. The client was moving to a different house and developed the hernia while lifting heavy objects 1 week ago. When the client is standing, the nurse sees bulging in the left inguinal area, which decreases when he is lying flat. The vital signs include T, 99° F; BP, 120/78 mm Hg; HR, 80 beats/minute; RR, 22 breaths/minute. The client had preadmission testing, and the nurse notes that the CBC with differential is within normal limits (WNL), and the electrolytes, renal function, and coagulation profile are also WNL. The electrocardiogram (ECG) copy is on the chart, and the reading is a normal ECG. The results of the chest X-ray are WNL. The physician’s history and physical is also on the chart, and the nurse notes that the client has no previous medical or surgical history. The client is an active runner and has participated in marathons. The client is 5 feet 8 inches in height and weighs 160 lb. He follows a heart-healthy diet, being proactive because he has a family history of cardiovascular disease. He does not smoke cigarettes or use tobacco products, has a rare alcoholic drink socially, and does not use any recreational drugs. The client stated that he was told about the surgical procedure by his surgeon, to not eat or drink anything the night before the surgery or the morning of the surgery, and to report to the surgical center. The client asks the LPN/LVN to provide preoperative education of the hernia repair and what to do at home once he is discharged.
a. What preoperative nursing management and client
education are needed?
b. What discharge instructions should the nurse
provide?

Bob has been active all of his life. He played soccer from elementary school all the way through college. He even played on a community team but now at age 45, he’s been diagnosed with high blood pressure (hypertension). At times he ate too much junk food and occasionally drank too much alcohol but he couldn’t get around the fact that the men in his family all had high blood pressure. Dr. Miller, Bob’s primary care physician, had to prescribe two different antihypertensive medications in order to get his blood pressure under control. She also recommended Bob continue his regular soccer workouts but suggested a low-salt diet and more modest alcohol intake. Bob heeded Dr. Miller’s recommendations. His father and his 2 uncles had hypertension at a young ages, and all 3 men ended up on dialysis before dying from complications of kidney failure.Bob began the recommended lifestyle changes at age 45 and even started running regularly to keep his blood pressure under control. Now, 10 years later, he was a marathoner and participated in local marathons, competing with, and outrunning many his own age. However, Bob noticed that during the past several months, he’d experienced more fatigue than normal and some dehydration symptoms after his long runs. After consulting with Dr. Miller, Bob sought the help of Ty, an exercise physiologist, to help him maintain his exercise regime and his health without feeling “old”.Ty worked with Dr. Miller to make sure that Bob was monitored closely since he was still taking his anti-hypertensive medications. Ty suggested a urinalysis to assess Bob’s physical condition before, during and after his workouts. Bob dutifully supplied urine samples to Dr. Miller for evaluation as Ty recommended. Ty explained that Bob’s dehydration symptoms were more difficulty to evaluate since the medication Bob took to control his high blood pressure could affect his renal status or physiologic functioning.Dr. Miller logged the following results of Bob’s urinalysis immediately after, and six hours after, a rigorous 2-hour run.
| Time | color | Specific gravity | protein | glucose | PH |
| Before exercise | pale yellow | 1.002 | none | none | 6.0 |
| Immediately after exercise | dark yellow | 1.035 | small amount | none | 4.5 |
| 6 hours after exercise | yellow | 1.025 | none | small amount | 5.0 |
Based on the urine color and specific gravity, Ty assessed Bob’s hydration status at the three different urine collection times. Explain what you believe to be Bob’s hydration status before Bob began his workout, immediately after his work and 6-hours after his workout.
Antidiuretic hormone (ADH) plays a large part in regulating the formation of concentrated or dilute urine. During Bob’s long runs, his ADH secretion would change based on how much he perspired. Explain why ADH secretions would fluctuate during Bob’s long runs.

Ty noted the color changes of Bob’s urine before, immediately after and 6-hours after his workouts. What do the color changes of Bob’s urine indicate?
Ty also noted that Bob’s specific gravity changed with each urine collection. Explain how Bob’s urine color/concentration compare to the urine specific gravity at the same time?
