Pick an Agile Manifesto principle that you think is likely to have the biggest impact on the success or failure of a typical project in your organization and why
The correct answer to this open question is the following.
The Agile Manifesto principle that I am going to pick in the principle of "Embracing Change."
I think this is likely to have the biggest impact on the success or failure of a typical project in my organization because change is the constant in modern-day business. Probably, since the inception of the modern-day industry.
In order to be successful and maintain that success over the years -no matter the conditions- a company has to be ready not only to adapt to change but to change ahead of necessity. And this is one of the most difficult things to do in business because people love to be in a comfort zone for years. People in corporate America likes to know they are safe in their traditional places doing traditional things. For them, change is tough.
That is why I think "Embrace change" would be the principle that would help me the most.

Dozier Company produced and sold 1,000 units during its first month of operations. It reported the following costs and expenses for the month: Direct materials $88,000 Direct labor $44,500 Variable manufacturing overhead$22,600 Fixed manufacturing overhead 33,700 Total manufacturing overhead $56,300 Variable selling expense$15,800 Fixed selling expense 25,600 Total selling expense $41,400 Variable administrative expense$5,900 Fixed administrative expense 28,800 Total administrative expense $34,700 Required: 1. With respect to cost classifications for preparing financial statements: a. What is the total product cost
Answer:
the total product cost is $188,800
Explanation:
The computation of the total product cost is given below:
= Direct material + direct labor + Total manufacturing overhead
= $88,000 + $44,500 + $56,300
= $188,800
Hence, the total product cost is $188,800
We simply added the above 3 items to determine the total product cost
5. Refer to the original data. By automating, the company could reduce variable expenses by $3 per unit. However, fixed expenses would increase by $57,000 each month. a. Compute the new CM ratio and the new break-even point in unit sales and dollar sales. b. Assume that the company expects to sell 20,800 units next month. Prepare two contribution format income statements, one assuming that operations are not automated and one assuming that they are. (Show data on a per unit and percentage basis, as well as in total, for each alternative.) c. Would you recommend that the company automate its operations (Assuming that the company expects to sell 20,800)
Question Completion:
Due to erratic sales of its sole product - a high capacity battery for laptop computers - PEM, Inc., has been experiencing difficulties for some time. The contribution format income statement for the most recent month is given as follows:
Sales (19,500 units at $30 per unit) $585,000
Variable expenses 409,500
Contribution margin 175,500
Fixed expenses 180,000
Net operating margin ($4,500)
Answer:
PEM, Inc.
a1) New CM ratio = 40%
a2) Break-even point in unit sales and dollars sales
i) Break-even point in unit sales = Fixed Expenses/Contribution per unit
= $237,000/$12
= 19,750 units
ii) Break-even point in dollars sales = Fixed Expenses/Contribution margin ratio
= $237,000/0.4
= $592,500
b. Contribution format income statements, based on sales of 20,800 units:
Without With
Automation Automation
Sales (20,800 units at $30 per unit) $624,000 $624,000 (20,800 * $30)
Variable expenses (20,800 at $21) 436,800 374,400 (20,800 * $18)
Contribution margin (20,800 * $9) 187,200 249,600 (20,800 * $12)
Fixed expenses 180,000 237,000
Net operating margin $7,200 $12,600
c) I would recommend that the company should automate its operations. It will generate more net operating margin, equal to $5,400 ($12,600 - $7,200), when it automates than when it does not, assuming that it expects to sell 20,800 units.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Variable expenses reduction = $3 per unit
Old variable expenses per unit = $21 ($409,500/19,500)
New variable expenses per unit = $18 ($21 - $3)
New variable expenses = $351,000 ($18 * 19,500)
New Contribution Margin per unit = $12 ($30 - $18)
New Contribution margin ratio = $12/$30 * 100 = 0.4 or 40%
Old Fixed Expenses = $180,000
New Fixed Expenses = $237,000 ($180,000 + $57,000)

Carole is in a strategic alliance with one of the biggest distributors of the state. Which sales channel is she using?
Carole is using the "blank"
sales channel
Answer:
wholesale channel
Explanation:
Sometimes companies do not have the time, money, logistics or personnel to deal with small retailers. That is why they decide to use wholesalers that purchase large quantities and then resell them to smaller retailers. The workload is much lower plus the company has the benefit of only needing to deal with one big client per sales area. This reduces logistics expenses, as well as the labor hours.
Answer:
The correct answer is B2B
Explanation:
"In a business-to-business (B2B) channel, your customer is another business rather than a retail customer."

Southern Markets has sales of $78,400, net income of $2,400, costs of goods sold of $43,100, and depreciation of $6,800. What is the common-size statement value of EBIT?
Answer:
36.35%
Explanation:
According to the scenario, computation of the given data are as follows,
Sales = $78,400
Net income = $2,400
Cost of goods sodl = $43,100
Depreciation = $6,800
So, we can calculate the EBIT value by using following formula:
= EBIT ÷ Sales
= ($78,400 - $43,100 - $6,800) ÷ ($78,400)
= $28,500 ÷ $78,400
= 36.35%
Hence, the common-size statement value of EBIT is 36.35%
If enterprise systems do much of the traditional work of recording transactions and processing journal entries and other accounting information, what role is left for the accountant to perform?
Answer:
If enterprise systems do much of the traditional work of recording transactions and processing journal entries and other accounting information,
the role that is left for the accountant to perform is to analyze the accounting information and provide interpretations to guide management's actions.
Explanation:
This is an evolving role that accountants must fulfill as Information Technology frees up their time to concentrate on less routine accounting tasks. They should now be focused on becoming trusted and valued advisors to their organizations by helping them to undertake strategic planning. They can achieve this as they devote more of their time to carry out an in-depth analysis of the accounting information being produced through technological automation and to provide correct interpretation of the analyzed data.
What is the percentage of the misstatement in (a) to the reported income of $1,073 million? Round to one decimal place.
Answer: 51.5%
Explanation:
Accrued expenses are to be included in the income statement because they show expenses that have not been paid but belong to the current period.
If accrued expenses were not included in the income calculation then the income is overstated because expenses reduce income.
Income is overstated by the accrued expenses amount which is $553 million
The percentage of this to the reported income is:
= 553 / 1,073 * 100
= 51.5%

B. $13,392
C. Isabel should pay the $20,000 bill in December
Explanation:
A. Calculation for the after-tax cost if Isabel pays the $20,000 bill in December
First step is to calculate present value tax savings
Present value tax savings=$20,000 x 37%
Present value tax savings= $7,400
Now let calculate the After-tax cost
After-tax cost = $20,000 - $7,400
After-tax cost = $12,600
Therefore the after-tax cost if Isabel pays the $20,000 bill in December is $12,600
B. Calculation for the What the after-tax cost if Isabel pays the $20,000 bill in January
First step is to calculate present value tax savings
Present value tax savings=($20,000 x 37%)* (Discount factor, 1 year, 12%)
Present value tax savings= $7,400 * .893
Present value tax savings=$6,608
Now let calculate the After-tax cost
After-tax cost= $20,000 - $6,608
After-tax cost = $13,392
Therefore the after-tax cost if Isabel pays the $20,000 bill in January is $13,392
c. Based on the above calculation for a and b Isabel should pay the $20,000 bill in the month of December reason been that in a situation where her payment is increase from the month of January to the month of December it will tend to lead to increase in the cash flow present value (PV) .

ABC Corp. is considering an investment project that costs $500 today. It expects the project will yield income of $200 at the end of years 1, 2, and 3. The interest rate must be ________ for the firm to undertake the project.
Answer:
B) no more than 9%
Explanation:
The computation of the rate of interest is given below:
Given that
Initial Cost = $500
Yearly Yield = $200
Based on the above information
Let us assume the rate of interest be 10%
So,
PV at 10% is
= - $500 + $200 ( P/A , 10% , 3 )
= -$500 + $200 ( 2.487 )
= - 500 + 497.4
= -2.6
As we can see that the at 10% there is a negative value and if we take more than 10% so again it would be the negative value
Now
Let us assume the rate of interest be 10%
So,
PV at 8% is
= - $500 + $200 ( P/A , 8% , 3 )
= -$500 + $200 ( 2.577 )
= -$500 + $515.4
= $15.4
So the rate of interest would not be more than 9%
Sheridan Company had net income for 2021 of $3050000. Additional information is as follows: Depreciation of plant assets $1192000 Amortization of intangibles 248000 Increase in accounts receivable 428000 Increase in accounts payable 543000 Sheridan's net cash provided by operating activities for 2021 was $4375000. $2725000. $4605000. $4490000.
Answer:
$4605000
Explanation:
The cash flow provided by operating activities is computed by starting with the net income and adjusting for non-cash expenses such as depreciation and amortization as well as the impact of working capital as shown by the formula below:
operating cash flows=net income+depreciation+amortization-increase in accounts receivable+increase in accounts payable
increase in accounts receivable deprives the business of cash , hence, it is treated as an ouflow (deducted) and an increase in accounts payable has an opposite impact.
operating cash flows=$3050000+$1192000+$248000-$428000+$543000
operating cash flows=$ 4,605,000
