Explain why different things are important for journalists from different media, with specific reference to radio, television and daily newspapers journalists. (9 marks)

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Because each of those mediums has a different logic.

Explanation:

For journalists in television, time is a great constraint, and therefore, they are interested in news reporting that is succint, and even entertaining.

In newspapers, what is limited is not time, but word space. Journalists are worried about presenting a newstory with the right words, but without an excessive amount of them.

Finally, in radio, journalists are worried about presenting a newscast with clear words, and in a way that the listener can understand, because radio lacks the visual clues that are present in newspapers and television.

how globalization has changed jobs in an organization where you have worked. What are some HR responses to those changes

Answers

Explanation:

Globalization is a phenomenon that has interconnected the world in a political, economic, social and cultural way, which means that this phenomenon has had a significant impact on an organization's business world and HR sector.

An organization that is present in a globalized world, will need to develop new ways of carrying out processes, since this environment is increasingly competitive and needs creativity and innovation for a company to remain well positioned in the market. It is also necessary to highlight that people have new work demands and seek to work in companies that exercise corporate governance and improve their socio-environmental environment.

Therefore, HR was positively impacted by globalization in a positive way, establishing an integration of its processes and people, in order to seek cultural and professional diversity in the recruited professionals, which combine greater innovation and competence for the company. In addition, organizations are more flexible and open to communication, assertiveness, self-management and processes that assist in innovation, motivation and continuous improvement of processes.

A remotely located air sampling station can be powered by solar cells or by running an electric line to the site and using conventional power. Solar cells will cost $12,600 to install and will have a useful life of 4 years with no salvage value. Annual costs for inspection, cleaning, etc. are expected to be $1,400. A new power line will cost $11,000 to install, with power costs expected to be $800 per year. Since the air sampling project will end in 4 years, the salvage value of the line is considered to be zero. At an interest rate of 10% per year, which alternative should be selected on the basis of a future worth analysis?

Answers

Answer:

Since the total future worth of running an electric line of $19,353.42 is less than the total future worth of solar cells is $24,132.22, it implies that it will be cheaper to run an electric line than to use solar cells. Therefore, running an electric line should be selected.

Explanation:

The future worth analysis refers to an act of determining what the the worth of present amount of money or stream of money invested at an interest rate will after in some period or years to come.

To determine which one to select between solar cells and running an electric line, the we need to calculate the future worth of both and compared as follows:

a. Calculation of future value of solar cells

Calculation of future worth of $12,600 installation cost

FW of $12,600 = PW of $12,600 * (1 + r)^n ................ (1)

Where;

FW of $12,600 = Future worth of $12,600 installation cost = ?

PW of $12,600 = Present worth of $12,600 installation cost = $12,600

r = interest rate = 10%, or 0.10

n = number of years = 4

Substitute the values into equation (1), we have:

FW of $12,600 = $12,600 * (1 + 0.10)^4

FW of $12,600 = $12,600 * 1.4641

FW of $12,600 = $18,447.66

Calculation of future worth of annual costs for inspection, cleaning, etc. of $1,400

The future worth of annual costs for inspection, cleaning, etc. of $1,400 can also be calculated using the formula for calculating the Future Value (FV) of an Ordinary Annuity as follows:

FW of $1,400 = M * (((1 + r)^n - 1) / r) ................................. (2)

Where,

FW of $1,400 = Future value of Annual costs for inspection, cleaning, etc. of $1,400 =?

M = Annual costs for inspection, cleaning, etc. = $1,400

r = interest rate = 10%, or 0.10

n = number of years = 4

Substitute the values into equation (2), we have:

FW of $1,400 = $1,400 * (((1 + 0.01)^4 - 1) / 0.01)

FW of $1,400 = $1,400 * 4.060401

FW of $1,400 = $5,684.56

Calculation of total future worth of solar cells

This is calculated by simply adding the FW of $12,600 and FW of $1,400 as follows:

Total future worth of solar cells = FW of $12,600 + FW of $1,400 = $18,447.66 + $5,684.56 = $24,132.22

Therefore, the total future worth of solar cells is $24,132.22.

b. Calculation of future value of running an electric line

Calculation of future worth of $11,000 installation cost

FW of $11,000 = PW of $11,000 * (1 + r)^n ................ (3)

Where;

FW of $11,000 = Future worth of $11,000 installation cost = ?

PW of $11,000 = Present worth of $11,000 installation cost = $11,000

r = interest rate = 10%, or 0.10

n = number of years = 4

Substitute the values into equation (3), we have:

FW of $11,000 = $11,000 * (1 + 0.10)^4

FW of $11,000 = $11,000 * 1.4641

FW of $11,000 = $16,105.10

Calculation of future worth of expected annual power costs of $800

The future worth of expected annual power costs of $800 can also be calculated using the formula for calculating the Future Value (FV) of an Ordinary Annuity as follows:

FW of $800 = M * (((1 + r)^n - 1) / r) ................................. (4)

Where,

FW of $800 = Future value of expected annual power costs of $800 =?

M = Expected annual power costs = $800

r = interest rate = 10%, or 0.10

n = number of years = 4

Substitute the values into equation (4), we have:

FW of $800 = $800 * (((1 + 0.01)^4 - 1) / 0.01)

FW of $800 = $800 * 4.060401

FW of $800 = $3,248.32

Calculation of total future worth of running an electric line

This is calculated by simply adding the FW of $11,000 and FW of $800 as follows:

Total future worth of running an electric line = FW of $11,000 + FW of $800 = $16,105.10 + $3,248.32 = $19,353.42

Therefore, the total future worth of running an electric line is $19,353.42.

c. Conclusion

Since the total future worth of running an electric line of $19,353.42 is less than the total future worth of solar cells is $24,132.22, it implies that it will be cheaper to run an electric line than to use solar cells. Therefore, running an electric line should be selected.

Midland Petroleum is holding a stockholders’ meeting next month. Ms. Ramsey is the president of the company and has the support of the existing board of directors. All 12 members of the board are up for reelection. Mr. Clark is a dissident stockholder. He controls proxies for 42,001 shares. Ms. Ramsey and her friends on the board control 52,001 shares. Other stockholders, whose loyalties are unknown, will be voting the remaining 24,998 shares. The company uses cumulative voting.

Required:
a. How many directors can Mr. Clark be sure of electing?
b. How many can Ms Rmasey be sure of electing
c. How many votes could clark have if he had all the uncommitted votes
d. Does that give him control?
e. If nine directors were to be elected, and Ms. Ramsey and her friends had 70,001 shares and Mr. Clark had 48,001 shares plus half the uncommitted votes, how many directors could Mr. Clark elect?

Answers

Answer:

Midland Petroleum

a. Mr. Clark can be sure of electing = 4 directors

b. Ms Ramsey can be sure of electing = 5 directors

c. If Mr. Clark had all the uncommitted votes, he can elect  = 7 directors

d. With 7 directors, he has control.

e. Mr. Clark can elect (60,50/143,000 * 9) = 4 directors.

Explanation:

Board members = 12                

Mr. Clark control = 42,001 shares  or 35.295%

Ms. Ramsey control = 52,001 shares or 43.698%

Undecided shareholders = 24,998 shares or 21.01%

Total shareholding = 119,000 shares or 100%

Mr. Clark can elect = 35.295% of directors = 4

Ms. Ramsey can elect = 43.698% of directors = 5

Other shareholders can elect = 21.01% of directors = 3

New shareholding:

Ms. Ramsey and friends = 70,001 shares

Mr. Clark and half uncommitted votes = 60,500 (48,001 + 12,499)

Half of the other uncommitted votes = 12,499

Total votes = 143,000

Mr. Clark can elect (60,50/143,000 * 9) = 4 directors.

d. Reject the proposal because if future sales remain at the current level, the income from operations will increase.
e. Reject the proposal because the sales necessary to maintain the current income from operations would be below the current year sales.

Answers

Answer:

1. Determine the total variable costs and the total fixed costs for the current year.

Total variable costs = $17,500,000 + $3,000,000 + $1,500,000 = $22,000,000 Total fixed costs = $10,000,000

2. Determine (a) the unit variable cost and (b) the unit contribution margin for the current year.

Unit variable cost = $22,000,000 / 500,000 = $44 Unit contribution margin = $94 - $44 = $50

3. Compute the break-even sales (units) for the current year.

break even point = $10,000,000 / $50 = 200,000 units

4. Compute the break-even sales (units) under the proposed program for the following year.

break even point = $11,800,000 / $50 = 236,000 units

5. Determine the amount of sales (units) that would be necessary under the proposed program to realize the $15,000,000 of income from operations that were earned in the current year.

units = ($11,800,000 + $15,000,000) / $50 = 536,000 units

6. Determine the maximum income from operations possible with the expanded plant.

total units sold 500,000 + 40,000 = 540,000total contribution margin = 540,000 x $50 = $27,000,000operating income = $27,000,000 - $11,800,000 = $15,200,000

7. If the proposal is accepted and sales remain at the current level, what will the income or loss from operations be for the following year?

operating income = (500,000 x $50) - $11,800,000 = $13,200,000represents a decrease of $15,000,000 - $13,200,000 = $1,800,000

8. Based on the data given, would you recommend accepting the proposal?

b. In favor of the proposal because of the possibility of increasing income from operations.

The price of oil in international markets has dropped stunningly 60% in the past twelve months. Among the factors mentioned behind this drastic fall is the millions of barrels of oil produced in the US called shale oil and analyze:

a. The market struc ture for oil industry.
b. The supply and demand for oil in that market structure.
c. The pricing of oil at the presence of OPEC and the role of Speculators.
d. Why shale oil is a substitute for oil and explain the news in regard to the Cross elasticity of demand.

Answers

Answer:

a. The market structure for oil industry.

The market structure is monopolistic competition: there are many competitors, that hold some market power, but not as much as in oligopoly. The good that is offered is not as homogenous as in agricultural markets, and this is the reason why it is not a perfect-competition structure either.

b. The supply and demand for oil in that market structure.

Supply and demand is determined more or less freely in the market. Producers hold some market power so they charge a price that is a bit higher than the marginal cost, which would be the price in a perfect competition structure.

Consumers also have power in the demand curve because they have a fair number of options.

c. The pricing of oil at the presence of OPEC and the role of Speculators.

The OPEC forms an oligopoly, however, not all countries that produce oil are members of the OPEC, and this is why the market structure as a whole is not an oligopoly, but monopolistic competition.

Speculators can drive prices, but their influence is marginal in comparison to consumers as a whole.

d. Why shale oil is a substitute for oil and explain the news in regard to the Cross elasticity of demand.

Shale oil is a substitute because it offers the same service: providing energy, and serving as a chemical component of many products.

As for the cross elasticity of demand, this means that when the price of oil increases, the demand for shale oil increases, because people flock to the substitute.

Pham can work as many or as few hours as she wants at the college bookstore for $12 per hour. But due to her hectic schedule, she has just 15 hours per week that she can spend working at either the bookstore or other potential jobs. One potential job, at a café, will pay her $15 per hour for up to 6 hours per week. She has another job offer at a garage that will pay her $13 an hour for up to 5 hours per week. And she has a potential job at a daycare center that will pay her $11.50 per hour for as many hours as she can work.

If her goal is to maximize the amount of money she can make each week, how many hours will she work at the bookstore?

Answers

Answer:

4 hours

Explanation:

For Pham to maximize her income, she must consider the jobs with the highest per-hour earnings first. She has 15 hours to work. Her priorities should be as below.

Work at the cafe for 6 hours for $15 per hourWork at the garage for 5 hours  for $13 per hourWork at the books store for 4 hours for $12 per hour

A  total of 15 hours. Pham can work at the book store for 4 hours per week to maximize her income.

Pham will have to work 4 hour per week at the bookstore to maximize her pay.

Given data

Total number of hours available per week = 15 hours

Cafe will pay her $15 per hour up to 6 hoursGarage offers $13 per hour up to 5 hoursDycare Centre offers $11.50 per hours for as long as she can work

Out of the potential job, only the cafe and garage centre pay is more than the pay of bookstore

Hence, in order to maximize the amount of money, Pham have to devote 6 hours at the cafe, 5 hours at the garage centre and remaining 4 hours at bookstore,

In this way, the amount of money she will receives will be at maximum.

Working at Cafe she will make $15 * 6 = $90 Working at Garage centre she will make $13 * 5 = $65Working at Bookstore she will make $12*4 = $48

Total amount she will earn = $90 + $65 + $48

Total amount she will earn = $203

Therefore, Pham will have to work 4 hour per week at the bookstore to maximize her pay.

Consider a project to supply Detroit with 20,000 tons of machine screws annually for automobile production. You will need an initial $3,000,000 investment in threading equipment to get the project started; the project will last for four years. The accounting department estimates that annual fixed costs will be $850,000 and that variable costs should be $450 per ton; accounting will depreciate the initial fixed asset investment straight-line to zero over the four-year project life. It also estimates a salvage value of $280,000 after dismantling costs. The marketing department estimates that the automakers will let the contract at a selling price of $600 per ton. The engineering department estimates you will need an initial net working capital investment of $300,000. You require a return of 18 percent and face a marginal tax rate of 38 percent on this project.

Required:
a. What is the estimated OCF for this project?
b. Suppose you believe that the accounting department’s initial cost and salvage value projections are accurate only to within ±15 percent; the marketing department’s price estimate is accurate only to within ±10 percent; and the engineering department’s net working capital estimate is accurate only to within ±5 percent. What is your worst-case and best-case scenario for this project?

Answers

Answer:

a) expected revenue = 20,000 tons x $600 = $12,000,000 per year

initial investment = $3,000,000 + $300,000 = $3,300,000

contribution margin per unit = $600 - $450 = $150

total contribution margin = $150 x 20,000 = $3,000,000

annual fixed costs = $850,000

depreciation expense per year = $750,000

tax rate = 38%

required return rate = 18%

after tax salvage value = $280,000 x (1 - 38%) = $173,600

NCF₀ = -$3,300,000

NCF₁ = [($3,000,000 - $850,000 - $750,000) x 0.62] + $750,000 = $1,618,000

NCF₂ = $1,618,000

NCF₃ = $1,618,000

NCF₄ = $1,618,000 + $300,000 + $173,600 = $2,091,600

NPV = $1,296,797.61

IRR = 36.36%

b) our best case scenario:

expected revenue = 20,000 tons x $660 = $13,200,000 per year

initial investment = $2,550,000 + $285,000 = $2,835,000

contribution margin per unit = $660 - $450 = $210

total contribution margin = $210 x 20,000 = $4,200,000

annual fixed costs = $850,000

depreciation expense per year = $637,500

tax rate = 38%

required return rate = 18%

after tax salvage value = $322,000 x (1 - 38%) = $199,640

NCF₀ = -$2,835,000

NCF₁ = [($4,200,000 - $850,000 - $637,500) x 0.62] + $637,500 = $2,319,250

NCF₂ = $2,319,250

NCF₃ = $2,319,250

NCF₄ = $2,319,250 + $285,000 + $199,640 = $2,803,890

NPV = $3,655,445.13

IRR = 74.34%

our worst case scenario:

expected revenue = 20,000 tons x $540 = $10,800,000 per year

initial investment = $3,450,000 + $315,000 = $3,765,000

contribution margin per unit = $540 - $450 = $90

total contribution margin = $90 x 20,000 = $1,800,000

annual fixed costs = $850,000

depreciation expense per year = $862,500

tax rate = 38%

required return rate = 18%

after tax salvage value = $238,000 x (1 - 38%) = $147,560

NCF₀ = -$3,765,000

NCF₁ = [($1,800,000 - $850,000 - $862,500) x 0.62] + $862,500 = $916,750

NCF₂ = $916,750

NCF₃ = $916,750

NCF₄ = $916,750 + $315,000 + $147,560 = $1,379,310

NPV = -$1,060,302.54

In 2010, Toyota recalled millions of automobiles to fix a potentially hazardous problem known as sudden acceleration. Writing in the Wall Street Journal, James Stewart gave investors the following advice: "Toyota shares were over $90 as recently as Jan. 19, 2010. They closed Tuesday (February 02, 2010) at $78.18, which strikes me as a modest decline under the circumstances. If I owned shares, I’d seize the chance to get out.

Required:
Would a believer in the efficient markets theory be likely to follow Stewart's advice?

Answers

Answer:

Of course not. Someone that believes in the efficient market theory (or hypothesis as it is generally called), believes that the market is always right. As an individual investor, you might be right or wrong, but the market as a whole has access to perfect information and the price of each stock already has been determined factoring all possible events and outcomes. I.e. the market's price is always the correct price and there is no way in which an individual investor can make a profit by buying or selling undervalued or overvalued stocks.

Personally, I disagree with this hypothesis, and the reason why most people call is a hypothesis is that they disagree with it. If the market is always right, then this theory is no good.

A company has the following aging schedule of its accounts receivable with the estimated percent uncollectible:______.
Age Group Amount Receivable Estimated Percent Uncollectible
Not yet due $ 175,000 4 %
0-60 days past due $ 40,000 10 %
61-120 days past due $ 10,000 30 %
More than 120 days past due $ 5,000 60 %
Assuming the balance of Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts is $3,000 (credit) before adjustment, which of the following would be recorded in the year-end adjusting entry?

Answers

Answer: $14,000

Explanation:

Estimated Uncollectibles = (4% * 175,000) + ( 10% * 40,000) + ( 30% * 10,000) + (60% * 5,000)

= 7,000 + 4,000 + 3,000 + 3,000

= $17,000

Balance before adjustment is a credit of $3,000 so the adjustment for the year is;

= 17,000 - 3,000

= $14,000

Variable selling and administrative $18

Fixed costs:
Fixed manufacturing overhead $940,000
Fixed selling and administrative $820,000

Required:
a. Assume that the company uses absorption costing. Compute the unit product cost for one gamelan.
b. Assume that the company uses variable costing. Compute the unit product cost for one gamelan.

Answers

Answer:

Results are below.

Explanation:

The absorption costing method includes all costs related to production, both fixed and variable. The unit product cost is calculated using direct material, direct labor, and total unitary manufacturing overhead.

The variable costing method incorporates all variable production costs (direct material, direct labor, and variable overhead).

Absorption costing:

Unitary fixed overhead= 940,000/23,000= $40.87

Unitary production cost= 180 + 340 + 51 +40.87

Unitary production cost= $610.87

Variable costing:

Unitary production cost= 180 + 340 + 51

Unitary production cost=$571

The absorption costing method includes all costs related to production and variable costs includes all variable production costs.

What are absorption costs?

Absorption costs, also known as absorption costs, are a management calculation method that combines both highly flexible and adjusted cost to produce a particular product.

Knowing the full cost of production per unit enables manufacturers to price their products.

Calculation of Production costs assuming that the method of Absorption costing:

[tex]\rm\,Unitary \;Fixed \;Overhead= \dfrac{\$940,000}{23,000}\\\\Unitary \;Fixed \;Overhead== \$40.87 \;per \;unit\\\\Unitary \;Production \;Cost= (180 + 340 + 51 +40.87)\\\\Unitary \; Production \;Cost= \$610.87[/tex]

b) Calculation of production costs by variable costing method:

[tex]\rm\,Unitary \; Production \;Cost= (\$180 +\$340 + \$51)\\\\Unitary \;Production \;Cost=\$571[/tex]

Hence, The unit product cost for one gamelan by applying absorption costing is $610.87 and by variable costing is $571.

First come, First served." Marsha LufMin was first in line when the store opened and went directly to the coat department, but the coats identified in the ad were not available for sale. She identified herself to the manager and pointed out that she was first in line in conformity with the store's advertised offer and that she was ready to pay the $500 price set forth in the store's offer.

Answers

Answer:

This technique is called "bait and switch", it is illegal and is considered false advertising. A seller cannot falsely advertise a product and then simply say that they do not have it on stock. It is a type of sales fraud and it is prohibited by the Lanham Act.

In order for this situation to be considered legal, the seller must have advertised and sold a certain amount of coats, but it didn't sell any. I.e. the seller runs out of stock because it already sold the 3 coats.

Mickey, Mickayla, and Taylor are starting a new business (MMT). To get the business started, Mickey is contributing $200,000 for a 40% ownership interest. Mickayla is contributing a building with a value of $200,000 and a tax basis of $150,000 for a 40% ownership interest, and Taylor is contributing legal services for a 20% ownership interest.

a. MMT is formed as a C corporation.
b. MMT is formed as an S corporation.
c. MMT is formed as LLC.

Answers

Answer:

a. MMT is formed as a C corporation.

Mickey and Mickayla will not recognize any gain, while Taylor must recognize $100,000 as ordinary income. Mickey and Mickayla's exchange classifies under §351, but Taylor's doesn't.

b. MMT is formed as an S corporation.

Mickey and Mickayla will not recognize any gain, while Taylor must recognize $100,000 as ordinary income. Mickey and Mickayla's exchange classifies under §351, but Taylor's doesn't.

c. MMT is formed as LLC.

Mickey and Mickayla will not recognize any gain, while Taylor must recognize $100,000 as ordinary income. Mickey and Mickayla's exchange classifies under §721, but Taylor's doesn't.

Explanation:

Basically §351 and §721 are very similar except that one applies to corporations and the other applies to partnerships and LLCs. No gain will be recognize when assets are transferred in exchange for equity, and the people involved in the exchange can control the company.
