You have recently been hired as the vice president for human resource in an advertising agency. One problem that has been brought to your attention is the fact that the creative departments at the agency have dysfunctionally high levels of conflict. You have spoken with members of each of these departments, and in each one it seems that a few members of the department are creating all the problems. All these individuals are valued contributors how have many creative ad campaigns to their credit. The high levels of conflict are creating problems in the departments, and negative moods and emotions are much more prevalent than positive feelings. What are you going to do to both retain valued employees and alleviate the excessive conflict and negative feelings in these departments?

Answers

Answer 1

Explanation:

There are two problems that need to be solved in the scenario above: the increase in team conflicts and the retention of valuable employees who are the cause of conflicts. In these two situations, as recently hired as vice president of human resources for an advertising agency, the ideal would be to try to understand how the people management process that occurred before his arrival at the company was carried out, and from there, find strategies for resolve the two main types of conflicts that occur at the advertising agency.

Some solutions arise from the principle of revising the HR policy and establishing a more direct and facilitated communication with employees, in order to increase the employees' perception of a management focused on the employee's well-being and open to feedbacks.

Another solution for reducing conflicts in teams is the assessment and analysis of the profile of each member individually and in a group, in order to monitor the individual and collective performance of each and define assignments according to their skills, generating greater integration between teams and appreciation of each employee, which increases engagement and motivation at work, reducing conflicts and turnover.

Answers

Answer:

$4,000

Explanation:

For computation of the government's total support payments to producers first we need to find out the surplus units which is shown below:

Floor price = $40

[tex]Q_d = 180[/tex]

[tex]Q_s = 280[/tex]

[tex]Surplus\ units[/tex] = [tex]Q_s - Q_d[/tex]

= 280 - 180

= 100

Therefore,

The Total support payments to producer = Price floor × Surplus units

= $40 × 100

= $4,000

So, for determining the total support payment to producer we simply multiply the price floor with surplus units.

Xu owns two investments, A and B, that have a combined total value of $40,000. Investment A is expected to pay $28,000 in 3 years from today and has an expected return of 7.1 percent per year. Investment B is expected to pay $36,000 in T years from today and has an expected return of 5.5 percent per year. What is T, the number of years from today that investment B is expected to pay $36,000?

Answers

Answer:

The number of years is [tex]T =13 \ years[/tex]

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

       The total value of the investment A and B is  [tex]k =[/tex]$40, 000

       The future value of A is [tex]F_A =[/tex]$28,000

       The time period is  t = 3

       The expected return of A is  [tex]e_A =[/tex] 7.1 % =  0.071

       The future value of  B is  [tex]F_B =[/tex]$36,000

        The time period for  B  is T

       The expected return of B is [tex]e_B =[/tex]5.5 % = 0.055

     

The present value of investment A is mathematically represented as

        [tex]A = \frac{F_A }{(1 + e_A) ^t}[/tex]

substituting values

      [tex]A = \frac{ 28000 }{(1 + 0.071) ^3}[/tex]

       [tex]A =[/tex]$ 22792.38

The present value of B is mathematically evaluated as

      [tex]B = k - A[/tex]

  substituting values

     B  =  40, 000 - 22792.38

      B  =  $17,208

The future value of B is

      [tex]F_B = B * (1 + e_B)^T[/tex]

 substituting values

     [tex]36,000 =17,208 * (1 + 0.055)^T[/tex]

     [tex]2.0921 = (1.055)^T[/tex]

take log of both sides

    [tex]log(2.0921) =log (1.055)^T[/tex]

   [tex]0.32057 = T log (1.055)[/tex]

Assets totaled $24,750 and liabilities totaled $8,550 at the beginning of the year. During the year, assets decreased by $3,550 and liabilities increased by $2,850. What is the amount of the change in stockholders' equity during the year?

Answers

Answer:

Amount of the change in stockholders' equity during the year is $6,400 (Decrease)

Explanation:

Assets = $24,750

Liabilities = $8,550

Equity = Assets - Liability

Equity at Beginning : $24,750 -$8,550 = $16,200

Equity at End : ($24,750 - $3,550) - ($8,550+$2,850)

= $21,200 - $11,400

= $9,800

Change in Stock holder's Equity : $16,200 -$9,800

= $6,400(Decrease)

Pekoe sold stock to his sister Rose for $12,000, its fair market value. Pekoe bought the stock 5 years ago for $16,000. Also, Pekoe sold Earl (an unrelated party) stock for $6,500 that he bought 3 years ago for $9,500. What is Pekoe's recognized gain or loss?

Answers

Answer:

The answer is $3000

Explanation:

Solution

Given that:

Pekoe sold stock  to his sister rose for the amount = $12,000

The stock cost 5 years ago for Pekoe = $16,000

Pekoe sold earl stock for =$6,500

Previous stock for earl 3 years ago = $9,500

Now we have to find the recognized loss of Pekoe

THus,

The sale of stock to rose will be a loss of $ 4000

which is

($12,000 -$16,000) =$4000 loss

Thus,

The sale of stock to Earl will result to the following loss which is state below:

$6,500 - $9,500 = a loss of $3000

Therefore the recognized loss of pekoe is $3000 or -$3000

Note: A loss was recognized here, no gain earned

Answer:

Pekoe would recognize the loss of $3,000.

Explanation:

The sale of stock to Rose would result in a loss of $3,000 ($12,000 (FMV) - $16,000 (cost) = $4,000 loss).

Under the tax law, "losses from sale or exchange of property ... directly or indirectly" are disallowed between related parties. When the property is later sold to an unrelated party, any disallowed loss may be used to offset gain on that transaction.

The sale of stock to Earl (an unrelated party) also results in a loss ($6,500 (FMV) - $9,500 (cost) = $3,000 loss). This is considered an arms-length transaction.

Pekoe would recognize the loss of $3,000.

Juggernaut Satellite Corporation earned $19.6 million for the fiscal year ending yesterday. The firm also paid out 30 percent of its earnings as dividends yesterday. The firm will continue to pay out 30 percent of its earnings as annual, end-of-year dividends. The remaining 70 percent of earnings is retained by the company for use in projects. The company has 2.8 million shares of common stock outstanding. The current stock price is $84. The historical return on equity (ROE) of 14 percent is expected to continue in the future.
What is the required rate of return on the stock?

Answers

Answer:

The required rate of return on the stock is 12.55%

Explanation:

According to the given data we have the following:

The Company is distributing 30% of its earnings as dividends

Therefore, company is retaining = 100-30 = 70% of its earnings

Growth = Retention ratio * ROE = 0.7*0.14 = 9.8%

Earning = 19.6 million

hence, Paid as dividends = 19.6*0.3 = $5.88 million

The Number of shares outstanding = 2.8 million

hence, Dividend per share = Total dividends / number of shares outstanding = 5.88/2.8 = $2.1

Current stock price = $84

Therefore, to calculate the required rate of return on the stock we would have to use the following formula:

Price of stock = Current dividend*(1+growth)/(r-growth), where r is required rate of return

84 = 2.1*(1.098)/(r-0.098)

40 = 1.098/(r-0.098)

r - 0.098 = 0.02745

r = 0.02745+0.098 = 0.12545

The required rate of return on the stock is 12.55%

b. The entries are:

Debit Cash for $23,730

Debit Accumulated depreciation for $41,100

Debit Loss on disposal of equipment for $14,870

Credit Equipment for $79,700

Explanation:

(a) Prepare the journal entries to update depreciation to July 31, 2022.

Note: the correct date to update to is July 31, 2022 not the wrongly stated July 31, 2014 in the question.

The journal entries will look as as follows:

Date      Particulars                                         Dr ($)               Cr ($)    

July 31  Depreciation expenses                   4,920

            Accumulated depreciation                                      4,920

           To record the updating of depreciation to July 31, 2022.      

(a) Prepare the journal entries to record the sale of the equipment.

To prepare this, we need to first calculate the gain or loss on disposal as follows:

Accumulated depreciation till date = $36,130 + $4,970 = $41,100

Net book value = Equipment cost - Accumulated depreciation till date = $79,700 - $41,100 = $38,600

Gain or loss on disposal = Sales proceed - Net book value = $23,730 - $38,600 = $14,870 loss

The journal entries will be as follows:

Date      Particulars                                                 Dr ($)             Cr ($)    

July 31  Cash                                                        23,730

             Accumulated depreciation                     41,100

             Loss on disposal of equipment              14,870

             Equipment                                                                         79,700

             (To record disposal of equipment.)

Required: 1. Using FIFO, calculate ending inventory, cost of goods sold, sales revenue, and gross profit.

Answers

Answer:

TRC Corporation

Calculations, using FIFO:

a) Ending Inventory:

Ending Inventory in units = Units available for sale minus Units sold

Ending Inventory in units = 466 - 413 = 53 units

Ending Inventory value = Units x FIFO cost of last purchase = 53 x $42 = $2,226

b) Cost of goods sold:

Cost of goods sold = Beginning Inventory + Purchases - Ending Inventory

Cost of goods sold = $1,584 + 17,034 - 2,226 = $16,392

c) Sales Revenue:

Sales Revenue = Units sold x Selling price = 414 x $54 = $22,302

d) Gross Profit:

Gross Profit = Sales Revenue minus Cost of goods sold

Gross Profit = $22,302 - $16,392 = $5,910

Explanation:

a) Summary of Inventory Transactions:

Date     Transaction              Number of Units   Unit Cost     Total Cost

Jan. 1     Beginning inventory     44                     $ 36              $ 1,584

d) Dec. 31 Ending Inventory      53                         42             $ 2,226

e) The FIFO (First-in, First-out) inventory method assumes that goods sold are from earlier inventory units, unlike Last-in, First-out (LIFO).  This means that beginning and earlier purchased inventory units are sold first before the latest purchases. Using the FIFO method, the ending inventory is valued at the cost of the most recent inventory purchases.

Answers

Answer:

The times interest earned (TIE) ratio = 4.41 times

Explanation:

The times interest earned (TIE) ratio is an accounting ratio that shows the extent to which the income income of an organization can be used to cover its future interest expenses. This can be calculated as follows:

TIE Ratio = Earning before interest and tax (EBIT) / Interest expenses

Since,

Bonds payable, 11% (due in 15 years) = $1,023,237

Interest expenses = 11% * $1,023,237 = $112,556.07

Income before income tax for year = $383,882

EBIT = Interest expenses + Income before income tax for year = $112,556.07 + $383,882 = $496,438.07

Therefore, we have:

The times interest earned (TIE) ratio = $496,438.07 / $112,556.07 = 4.41 times

This shows that the income is 4.41 times greater than its annual interest expense. That is, the income can cover the annual interest 4.41 times.

The Stationery Company purchased merchandise on account from a supplier for $9,100, terms 2/10, n/30. The Stationery Company returned merchandise with an invoice amount of $1,100 and received full credit. a. If The Stationery Company pays the invoice within the discount period, what is the amount of cash required for the payment? $

Answers

Answer:

$7,840

Explanation:

The terms 2/10, n/30 means that if the amount is paid in maximum 10 days, the client will receive a 2% discount. If he/she doesn't make the payment in this period, the total amount has to be paid within 30 days.

As Stationary Company returned merchandise with an invoice amount of $1,100, you have to subtract this amount from the initial value of the merchandise they purchased:

$9,100-$1,100= $8,000

Then, you have to calculate the 2% discount they will get from the $8,000 for paying the invoice within the discount period:

$8,000*2%= $160

$8,000-$160= $7,840

According to this, the answer is that the amount of cash required for the payment is $7,840.

Answer:

[tex]\mathbf{Max \ Z = 2.033 BR + 2.583 BD + 1.868 CR + 2.418 CD}[/tex]

Explanation:

From the given information:

The total revenue can be illustrated as :

Total revenue = 3.6 BR +  4.4 BD + 3.6 CR + 4.4 CD

On the other hand; the total cost  of the beans is:

= 1.1 (0.47 BR  + 0.47 BD + 0.62 CR + 0.62 CD)

=  0.517  BR + 0.517 BD + 0.682 CR + 0.682 CD

Also; The total production cost is :

= 0.8 BR + 1.05 BD + 0.8 CR + 1.05 CD

The total profit  = Total revenue - Total Cost of Beans - Total Production Cost

The total profit  =  [tex]\left[\begin{array}{}3.6 BR + 4.4 BD + 3.6 CR + 4.4 CD\\- (0.517 BR + 0.517 BD + 0.682 CR + 0.682 CD)\\-(0.8 BR + 1.05 BD + 0.8 CR + 1.05 CD)\end{array}\right][/tex]

The total profit  = 2.033 BR + 2.583 BD + 1.868 CR + 2.418 CD

Therefore the  linear programming model represents the Objective function of the total profit as:

Answer:

c. $73.00 per share

Explanation:

The computation of market value of the stock will fall to approximately is shown below:-

The market value of the stock will fall to approximately = Market value per share ÷ 4-for-1 stock split

= $292 ÷ 4-for-1 stock split

= $73.00 per share

Therefore for computing the market value of the stock will fall to approximately we simply applied the above formula.

Which of the following is not counted as a part of GDP?
A. the purchase of 100 shares of AT&T stock by your grandfather.
B. the purchase of a snow plough by the city of Minneapolis.
C. the unsold additions to inventory at an appliances store
D. the purchase of a loaf of bread by a consumer​

Answers

Answer:

C, The unsold additions to inventory at an appliances store.

Explanation:

GDP = Gross DOMESTIC Product

Since the unsold additions are not sold, there's no money coming from it, thus it is not counted in GDP.

Bonus: If you order clothes from Thailand, that is called GNP. It counts as Thailand's GDP because the money is going into the country, and it counts as America's GNP as you are buying goods from another country.

The question is incomplete. Here is the complete question

Suppose Ms. Smith sells her 2018 Honda Fit next year. The original cost of the

vehicle was $10,000. During the time she has owned the car she has taken $3,000 dollars

of deprecation on it. Ms. Williams sells the car for $9,000. What is result of the transaction?

A. An ordinary loss of $1,000

B. Long-term capital gain of $2,000

C. An ordinary gain of $2,000

D. An ordinary gain of $6,000

Answer:

An ordinary gain of $2,000

Explanation:

Ms. Smith wants to sell her 2018 Honda fit car next year

The original cost of the car is $10,000

She has incurred $3,000 worth of depreciation on it during the period that she has used the car

She sells the car for $9,000

Her transaction rate can be calculated as follows:

Net value of the car= $10,000-$3,000

= $7,000

Amount of gain realized while selling the car= $9,000-$7,000

= $2,000

Hence Ms. Smith has an ordinary gain of $2,000 after selling her car

The income elasticity for most staple foods, such as wheat, is known to be between zero and one. As incomes rise over time, what will happen to the demand for wheat? What will happen to the quantity of wheat purchased by consumers? What will happen to the percentage of their budgets that consumers spend on wheat? All other things equal, are farmers likely to be relatively better off or relatively worse off in periods of rising incomes?

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

a. As it is given that the income elasticity of wheat is between zero and one that reflects inelastic and less than unity condition.

So in this, when the income is increased the demand for wheat is also increased but it would be less proportionally

And, the percentage increase in demand for wheat is lower than the increase in income

b. The quantity of wheat purchased is increased as there is an increase in income which increased the demand for all goods

c. The percentage of their budget will go decline as the income elasticity is between zero and one that results into an increase in income and they can switch more expenditure for other goods

d. The farmer condition does not affect overall as if the income increased the demand for other goods is also increased but it is more than the wheat
