Activity-Based Supplier Costing

Clearsound uses Alpha Electronics and La Paz Company to buy two electronic components used in the manufacture of its cell phones: Component 125X and Component 30Y. Consider two activities: testing components and reordering components. After the two components are inserted, testing is done to ensure that the two components in the phones are working properly. Reordering occurs because one or both of the components have failed the test and it is necessary to replenish component inventories. Activity cost information and other data needed for supplier costing are as follows:

I. Activity Costs Caused by Suppliers (testing failures and reordering as a result)

II. Supplier Data

Required:

Determine the cost of each supplier by using ABC. Round Test and Reorder rates to the nearest dollar, and final answers to the nearest cent.

The Ste. Marie Division of Pacific Media Corporation just started operations. It purchased depreciable assets costing $47 million and having a four-year expected life, after which the assets can be salvaged for $9.4 million. In addition, the division has $47 million in assets that are not depreciable. After four years, the division will have $47 million available from these nondepreciable assets. This means that the division has invested $94 million in assets with a salvage value of $56.4 million. Annual depreciation is $9.4 million. Annual operating cash flows are $27 million. Depreciation is computed on a straight-line basis, recognizing the salvage values noted. Ignore taxes. Assume that the division uses beginning-of-year asset values in the denominator for computing ROI.

Required:

a. & b. Compute ROI, using net book value and gross book value. (Enter your answers as a percentage rounded to 1 decimal place (i.e., 32.1).)

Use Java Collections to write a small program using NetBeans to do the following:

1. Create a queue object of Integer items, myQueue.

2. Create a stack object of Integer items, myStack.

3. Enqueue the integers 10, 20. 30, .., 100 into myQueue, in that order.

4. Push the integers 10, 20, 30, ..., 100 into myStack, in that order.

5. Display the message: "Here are the elements of myQueue:".

6. Remove and display the front element of the queue until myQueue becomes empty.

7. Display the message: "And here are the elements of myStack:".

8. Remove and display the top element of the stack until myStack becomes empty.

What are the arguments for and against allowing defendants without any legal training to represent themselves in felony prosecutions? How far should a trial judge go in advising a defendant of the pitfalls of proceeding without legal counsel?

Consider the “index calculation” problem we have studied in the class (see lecture note), where we have a relation of 8,000,000 tuples. Again, make the following assumptions:

• the size of disk block (also called disk page): it is usually 4K or 8K bytes, to make our calculation easier, we will use 4000 bytes as a block size
• the size of the search key value: say we index the relation by using an attribute that is part of the primary key, and it is 40 byte string
• the size of physical page addresses: this is needed since every node in the tree will store search key values as well as references to disk pages, i.e., the address of the disk page being referenced. For ease of calculation, we use a 10-byte page address
• each swap takes about 10 milliseconds

1. For this relation, calculate how long it will take to find a particular record if we use dense index, as

described by databaseSystems-71-indexing, page 2? [16 points]

2. Consider again the situation in question 1, with the same dense index, but add one extra level of sparse index, as described by databaseSystems-71-indexing, page 5 – 6. Now, how long it will take to find one particular record? [16 points]

Westpac City-Bay Fun Run is an annual fund-raising event that started in Adelaide in November of 1973. The main purpose of the event is to raise funds to support the athletic community of South Australia and to support local athletes and clubs while also engaging in a fun and friendly competition. From its humble origins, the event grew each year and last year the run raised over 350,000 AUD. It is a popular event, supported by many local firms and individuals alike and entry fees range from 25 dollars to 60. Despite the event being organized for September 2020, the organizers are already thinking about 2021 and how to make the event even bigger.There are three main types of marketing research that were discussed in the week 4 lecture (exploratory, descriptive, and causal). Imagine that you have joined the board of directors for the City-Bay Fun Run as a Market Research Advisor. Explain to the Board the three types of research they could do before the 2021 run and give examples of how and where primary and secondary data could be collected and used to improve the event. Explain the relevance of primary and secondary data to the Board. (400 words essay)

Diego Company manufactures one product that is sold for $81 per unit in two geographic regions—the East and West regions. The following information pertains to the company’s first year of operations in which it produced 52,000 units and sold 47,000 units.

The company sold 35,000 units in the East region and 12,000 units in the West region. It determined that $260,000 of its fixed selling and administrative expense is traceable to the West region, $210,000 is traceable to the East region, and the remaining $82,000 is a common fixed expense. The company will continue to incur the total amount of its fixed manufacturing overhead costs as long as it continues to produce any amount of its only product.

a.  What is the unit product cost under variable costing?

b. What is the unit product cost under absorption costing?

c. What is the company’s total contribution margin under variable costing?

d. What is the company’s net operating income (loss) under variable costing?
