1) Timmy and Jenny's Asset, Liability, and Net Worth (Balance Sheet)

Elsinore Electronics is a decentralized organization that evaluates divisional management based on measures of divisional contribution margin. Home Audio (Home) Division and Mobile Electronics (Mobile) Division both sell electronic equipment, primarily for video and audio entertainment. Home focuses on home and personal equipment; Mobile focuses on components for automobile and other, nonresidential equipment. Home produces an audio player that it can sell to the outside market for $72 per unit. The outside market can absorb up to 90,000 units per year. These units require 3 direct labor-hours each.

If Home modifies the units with an additional hour of labor time, it can sell them to Mobile for $81 per unit. Mobile will accept up to 78,000 of these units per year.

If Mobile does not obtain 78,000 units from Home, it purchases them for $84 each from the outside. Mobile incurs $36 of additional labor and other out-of-pocket costs to convert the player into one that fits in the dashboard and integrates with the automobile’s audio system. The units can be sold to the outside market for $203 each.

Home estimates that its total costs are $1,080,000 for fixed costs, $14.40 per direct labor-hour, and $7.20 per audio player for materials and other variable costs besides direct labor. Its capacity is limited to 375,000 direct labor-hours per year.

Required:

Determine the following:

a. Total contribution margin to Home if it sells 90,000 units outside. (Do not round intermediate calculations.)

b. Total contribution margin to Home if it sells 78,000 units to Mobile. (Do not round intermediate calculations.)

(c) & (d). The costs to be considered in determining the optimal company policy for sales by Home.

The annual contributions and costs for Home and Mobile under the optimal policy.

RBC’s Youth Marketing Strategy

As stated above, the marketing strategy consists of selecting a target market and designing the marketing mix of your product, price, place, and promotion to appeal to your competitors. RBC, Canada’s largest bank, obviously has many different target markets, which results in the key managing different marketing mixes. One key target market for the bank is university students and recent graduates. The group is particularly important as they are just starting to form relationships with companies and the bank realized that if it captures a young customer’s business now it may be able to retain the customer for a lifetime. To achieve this result, RBC tries to differentiate itself from the other banks by creating a superior “student-focused” marketing mix.

    While all banks in Canada are offering student banking packages, student lines of credit, credit cards for students and so forth, RBC is attempting to differentiate itself first and foremost by using promotions that appeal to youth. The bank spends upwards of 120$ million to sponsor the 2010 Olympics, including the “Own the Podium” campaign, which consisted of directing money to athletes who had the best chance to capture an Olympic medal, and the “Torch Relay”, a 45000 kilometer trip across the country that stopped in cities and towns and featured youth-focused entertainment. RBC has followed up that promotion with a commitment to the “Road to Excellence” program, which replaced “Own the Podium. “Royal Bank has now committed to being the Premier National Partner of the Canadian Olympic Committee through 2016 and is proving additional support for the Paralympic teams.

            In addition, RBC is considered the social media leader among the big banks in Canada. RBC has invested heavily in social media including Twitter, Facebook, blogs, avatars, and online completions and communities to attract young clients. For example, a recent online contest focused on recent university graduates who were asked to provide the best advice they could to new university students.

Questions:

1. What markets in RBC targeting with social media?

2. Are there other things RBC could be doing with its marketing mix to appeals to the youth markets?

We are mainly using basic in and out declarations and are focusing on API for method invocations. Any help would be very appreciated :)

Problem 7: Distance (10 points) Use API (Data Science) Data Science is an emergent field from Computer Science with applications in almost every domain including finances, medical research, entertainment, retail, advertising, and insurance. The role of a data analyst is to aggregate data points and make conclusions based on how that data clusters together. Fundamentally, this is how Pandora selects what song to play next, how Netflix determines what shows to recommend next, how Amazon chooses which products to promote together, how banks determine whether to issue a loan, and how hedge companies decide which stocks to invest into. One critical component that empowers data analysts to make such predictions is to determine how close or far two data points are in relation to one another. This is accomplished using Trigonometry, a field of study in mathematics which observes the relationships of the sides and angles of triangles. By mapping the data points onto a 2d chart, it is then possible to use the distance formula (pythagorean theorem) to calculate the geometric distance between these two points. Your task in this problem is to calculate the distance between two points.

Facts

● Distance formula: distance = √(x x ) 2 − 1 2 + (y y ) 2 − 1 2

● Java Math class contains sqrt and pow methods ○ https://docs.oracle.com/javase/10/docs/api/java/lang/Math.html

● Your solution should have a main method.

● Use Scanner for input & Use System.out for output!

Input The first line of input is the number of test cases. Each line afterwards contains four double values. The first two values represent the first point's coordinates as (x1 ,y1 ). The second set of values represent the second point's coordinates as (x2 ,y2 ).

Output Print the distance between the two points as a double type. Use System.out.println() on your result.

Lionel Corporation manufactures pharmaceutical products sold through a network of sales agents in the United States and Canada. The agents are currently paid an 18% commission on sales; that percentage was used when Lionel prepared the following budgeted income statement for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2019:

Since the completion of the income statement, Lionel has learned that its sales agents are requiring a 5% increase in their commission rate (to 23%) for the upcoming year. As a result, Lionel’s president has decided to investigate the possibility of hiring its own sales staff in place of the network of sales agents and has asked Alan Chen, Lionel’s controller, to gather information on the costs associated with this change.

Alan estimates that Lionel must hire eight salespeople to cover the current market area, at an average annual payroll cost for each employee of $80,000, including fringe benefits expense. Travel and entertainment expenses is expected to total $700,000 for the year, and the annual cost of hiring a sales manager and sales secretary will be $200,000. In addition to their salaries, the eight salespeople will each earn commissions at the rate of 10% of sales. The president believes that Lionel also should increase its advertising budget by $600,000 if the eight salespeople are hired.

Required

1. Determine Lionel’s breakeven point (operating profit = 0) in sales dollars for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2019, if the company hires its own sales force and increases its advertising costs. Prove this by constructing a contribution income statement.

2. If Lionel continues to sell through its network of sales agents and pays the higher commission rate, determine the estimated volume in sales dollars that would be required to generate the operating profit as projected in the budgeted income statement.

1. Find the most recent 4 years' balance sheets and 3 years' income statement for the two companies you have chosen to study for your project. (CVS +Walgreens or Mcdonalds +  Wendy's).

3.  Perform vertical analysis and horizontal analyses for the income statements  (for horizontal analysis, use the first year as your base year; for vertical analysis, use "net sales" or "net revenue" as the base).

A firm has to decide whether to (1). stay with current machine as it is (2). upgrade it with an enhancement or (3). buy a new machine.  Cost of upgrade is $1000, and the cost of a new machine is $8000.  Revenues are estimated as follows, based on the performance of the economy next year:

It is estimated that the probability of a stagnant economy next year is 0.51 (so probability of a growth economy is 1 - 0.51).

If a new machine is purchased, and if there is a growth economy next year, what is the estimated payoff?  (= revenue - cost of new machine)
