Question 4

With the growing popularity of casual surf print clothing, two recent MBA graduates decided to broaden this casual surf concept to encompass a “surf lifestyle for the home.” With limited capital, they decided to focus on surf print table and floor lamps to accent people’s homes. They projected unit sales of these lamps to be 7,000 in the first year, with growth of 8 percent each year for the next five years. Production of these lamps will require GH¢35,000 in net working capital to start. Total fixed costs are GH¢ 95,000 per year, variable production costs are GH¢ 20 per unit, and the units are priced at GH¢48 each. The equipment needed to begin production will cost GH¢175,000. The equipment will be depreciated using the straight-line method over a five-year life and is not expected to have a salvage value. The effective tax rate is 34 percent, and the required rate of return is 25 percent. Evaluate the project using NPV.

1. Given the growing popularity of environmentally friendly clothing, two recent MBA graduates decided to broaden this casual surf concept to encompass a “green lifestyle for the home.” With limited capital, they decided to focus on environmentally friendly curtains to accent people’s homes. They projected unit sales of these curtains to be 5,000 per year. Production of these curtains will require $28,000 in net working capital to start. Variable production costs are $20 per unit, and the units are priced at $45 each. The equipment needed to begin production will cost $60,000. The equipment will be depreciated to zero using the straight-line method over a five-year life and is expected to have a salvage value of $5,000. The production will take place in an old warehouse that one of the graduates has inherited. He could have gotten it rented for $100,000 a year. The effective tax rate is 34%, and the required rate of return is 12%. (a) Compute the Payback period, NPV and IRR for this project. (b) How many curtains do you need to sell in order to make this project worthwhile?

MBA 5010 Week 3 Weekly Integrative Assignment

Copper and zinc work equally well as a chemical catalyst to mitigate pollution created in the production of lithium batteries. However, copper is currently 10% more expensive than zinc. And so, zinc is the current preferred material. The following diagrams represent the copper, zinc, and lithium battery markets.

However, some recent advances in pharmaceutical research have substantially increased demand for zinc in pharmaceutical manufacturing.

Using this example, explain how markets see to the most appropriate allocation of resources between competing uses. Limit your response to no more than 500 words. Be sure to include in your response the preceding diagrams, demonstrating the relevant change in each respective market. You may use Word drawing features or draw the diagrams, use your phone to capture them, and then insert them into your response. If you need help, ask. Your answer will be evaluated based on correctness, completeness, and clarity. Be attentive to your writing.

Write a C++ program named, myGrade.cpp, that calculates a letter grade for a student of this...

Write a C++ program named, myGrade.cpp, that calculates a letter grade for a student of this course (CSC100 online) based on three user inputs. This program should begin by printing the title of the application (program) and a brief description of what it does. (Note: this is NOT the same as the program prolog: a prolog is much more detailed, has required elements, and is intended for other programmers reading the cpp file. The title and description displayed by the program are meant for the user of the program.)

Next, the program must prompt the user for three integer inputs in the following order: 1) Points earned on programming assignments, 2) Points earned on MPL homework, and 3) Points earned on the final exam. Each prompt should be clear, concise, and free of spelling errors. After getting all three of the integer inputs, the program should either print an input validation error message and then terminate or output the required data for this program.

If an input error is detected, one and only one of the following error messages should be displayed:

  1. The number of points entered for Programming Assignments must be between 0 and 400, inclusive.
  2. The number of points entered for MPL Homework must be between 0 and 200, inclusive.
  3. The number of points entered for the Final Exam must be between 0 and 400, inclusive.

After displaying one of these error messages, the program should terminate after displaying:
myGrade is now terminating.

Only if there is no input error would the program continue normal execution. This means that the next step after all three inputs are validated is to make the necessary calculations and determinations to display the following items of information to the user in this order:

  1. The number of Programming Assignment points entered
  2. The number of MPL Homework points entered
  3. The number of Final Exam points entered
  4. The total number of points earned
  5. The student's letter grade
  6. A support message based on the letter grade earned

Each numeric value displayed should be preceded by a clear, concise label stating what the number means. The total points earned is the sum of the three integers input by the user. The letter grade is determined by matching the total points to the correct row in the table given under the Grading section in the Syllabus. Your code will need to implement efficient grade range checks to determine the appropriate letter grade based on the table in the syllabus. Use named constants for the grade range boundaries (900, 800, etc.) and store the determined letter grade as an upper case letter in variable of type, char. Do not use any variables of type, double, in this program: double is not needed since all entries are integers and the grade range boundaries are integers. Your program must also implement the course rule that automatically assigns a letter grade of F when the Final Exam points earned are less then 240, i.e., 60% of the total possible.

Your program must use a switch statement on the letter grade (type, char) to print one and only one of the following support messages:

  1. For an A, print:      Great job! You will have no problem in CSC205.
  2. For a B, print:        Good job! You should have little trouble in CSC205.
  3. For a C, print:        Ok, you passed, but you may be challenged in CSC205.
  4. For a D, print:       When you retake this course, you will be able to do much better.
  5. For an F, print either:
              You did not put forth enough effort to pass this course.
    or
              You did not score enough points on the Final Exam to pass this course.

Once all six items of information are displayed (in the order listed above), the program should terminate after displaying:

myGrade is now terminating.


TRUE for THIS and ALL programs submitted in this course:
Avoid unnecessary point deductions by formatting your code AND following ALL pertinent coding conventions. Make sure all requirements are implemented. Make sure the program does not calculate or display anything that is NOT required. Remember named constants.

Example of Output:

Example output from your program if the three inputs were: 305 (programming assignments), 108 (MPL Homework), and 288 (Final Exam):

Final Exam points entered:            240
Total number of points earned:      595           
Student's letter grade earned:            F
     You did not put forth enough effort to pass this course.

Example output from your program if the three inputs were: -348 (programming assignments), 139 (MPL Homework), and 300 (Final Exam):

Programming Assignment points entered: -348

Profit Center Responsibility Reporting A-One Freight Inc. has three regional divisions organized as profit centers. The chief executive officer (CEO) evaluates divisional performance using operating income as a percent of revenues. The following quarterly income and expense accounts were provided from the trial balance as of December 31, 20Y3. Revenues—Air Division $ 1,104,600 Revenues—Rail Division 1,295,000 Revenues—Truck Division 2,401,200 Operating Expenses—Air Division 700,000 Operating Expenses—Rail Division 770,700 Operating Expenses—Truck Division 1,452,100 Corporate Expenses—Shareholder Relations 168,000 Corporate Expenses—Customer Support 613,800 Corporate Expenses—Legal 207,900 General Corporate Officers’ Salaries 371,000 The company operates three service departments: Shareholder Relations, Customer Support, and Legal. The Shareholder Relations Department conducts a variety of services for shareholders of the company. The Customer Support Department is the company’s point of contact for new service, complaints, and requests for repair. The department believes that the number of customer contacts is an activity base for this work. The Legal Department provides legal services for division management. The department believes that the number of hours billed is an activity base for this work. The following additional information has been gathered:

   Air    Rail    Truck
Number of customer contacts 5,000 5,900 8,900
Number of hours billed 800 1,300 1,200

Division management does not control activities related to the shareholder relations department and general corporate officers’ salaries.

Required:

a. Prepare quarterly income statements showing operating income for the three divisions. Use three column headings: Air, Rail, and Truck.

Feedback

1. Determine the customer contact rate by dividing service cost by output. For each division's customer support, multiply the customer contact rate by the number of customer contacts. Repeat this process for the other service department charges. Subtract the service department charges for a division from that division's operating income before such charges.

b. What is the profit margin percentage of each division? Round to one decimal place.

Division Profit Margin
Air Division %
Rail Division %
Truck Division %

Identify the most successful division according to the profit margin percentage.
Truck

3. All of the following statements are true regarding the evaluation of divisional performance for A-1 except:

  1. A better measure for A-1 Freight than the amount of operating income per dollar of earned revenue would be either rate of return on investment or residual income, because both measures incorporate asset utilization into the measures.
  2. A better measure for A-1 Freight than the amount of operating income per dollar of earned revenue would be either rate of return on investment or residual income, because the amount of assets used by a division in earning a return is a very important consideration in evaluating divisional performance.
  3. A better measure for A-1 Freight than the amount of operating income per dollar of earned revenue would be either rate of return on investment or residual income, because this company requires a significant investment in fixed assets and distribution facilities.
  4. All of these choices are correct.

Wells Technical Institute (WTI), a school owned by Tristana Wells, provides training to individuals who pay tuition directly to the school. WTI also offers training to groups in off-site locations. Its unadjusted trial balance as of December 31, 2016, follows. WTI initially records prepaid expenses and unearned revenues in balance sheet accounts. Descriptions of items a through h that require adjusting entries on December 31, 2016, follow.

Additional Information Items

An analysis of WTI's insurance policies shows that $2,400 of coverage has expired.

An inventory count shows that teaching supplies costing $2,800 are available at year-end 2016.

Annual depreciation on the equipment is $13,200.

Annual depreciation on the professional library is $7,200.

On November 1, WTI agreed to do a special six-month course (starting immediately) for a client. The contract calls for a monthly fee of $2,500, and the client paid the first five months' fees in advance. When the cash was received, the Unearned Training Fees account was credited. The fee for the sixth month will be recorded when it is collected in 2017.

On October 15, WTI agreed to teach a four-month class (beginning immediately) for an individual for $3,000 tuition per month payable at the end of the class. The class started on October 15, but no payment has yet been received. (WTI's accruals are applied to the nearest half-month; for example, October recognizes one-half month accrual.)

WTI's two employees are paid weekly. As of the end of the year, two days' salaries have accrued at the rate of $100 per day for each employee.

The balance in the Prepaid Rent account represents rent for December.
