Uber and Lyft Drivers Go on Strike This activity is important because fairness gives employees observable evidence of trustworthiness of a manager, company or other source. Managers should know the types of justice and how they can exhibit those to gain trust. Trust is a strong predictor of organizational commitment and a moderate predictor of job performance. The goal of this exercise is to demonstrate your understanding of justice, by reading a case and answering questions that follow. Read the following case about Uber and Lyft and answer the questions that follow. Uber and Lyft drivers went on strike in several U.S. major cities the week of May 6, 2019, holding rallies and, in some cases, drivers not working for 12 to 24 hours. The drivers were protesting a pay decrease per mile and seeking better benefits. Lyft and Uber drivers are independent contractors, so they do not qualify for the same benefits and protections that govern typical employees. Drivers aren't guaranteed minimum wage or overtime, for example. Currently, Uber offers some benefits for high volume drivers, such as discounts on car repair and maintenance. Lyft and Uber have pushed back, with Lyft saying that most drivers work 10 hours or fewer a week and wouldn't qualify for benefits anyway. The timing of the strikes was no accident because Uber faced its IPO (initial public offering) the same week. Since then, Uber reported its largest quarterly loss in August 2019 of $5.2 billion. Furthermore, Lyft's shares fell 20% since its March 2019 IPO. If drivers were considered employees, they would get the same benefits and labor protection of other employees. Legally, they would be entitled to unemployment insurance, health care subsidies, overtime pay and a guaranteed minimum wage, among other rights. The lawsuit currently progressing through the court system in California is projected to be passed into law by the state senate. Uber and Lyft are not the only companies using "gig" workers. For example, another booming business model is food delivery, like Grubhub and DoorDash. Part of these companies' pushback is saying they will not be able to employ as many people due to the costs of benefits. In California, Uber is estimated to have 140,000 drivers and Lyft to have 80,000 drivers. Barclays, a renowned worldwide financial services company, estimated that benefits, payroll taxes and workers compensation would cost Uber $508 million per year and Lyft $290 million per year, assuming the same number of drivers were employed. In June 2019, Uber's and Lyft's top executives joined together to write an op ed in the San Francisco Chronicle to explain their arguments and promise to address the quality of work and job security. In their op ed, the executives sought to provide information to the public and drivers about their positions regarding providing benefits to drivers, showing the desire to increase justice.

On January 1, 2021, Canseco Plumbing Fixtures purchased equipment for $40,000. Residual value at the end of an estimated 7 year service life is expected to be $12,000. The company expects the equipment to operate for 12,500 hours. Required: a. Calculate depreciation expense for 2021 and 2022 using sum-of-the-years’-digits assuming the equipment was purchased on January 1, 2021. b. Calculate depreciation expense for 2021 and 2022 using sum-of-the-years’-digits assuming the equipment was purchased on March 31, 2021.

Answers

Answer:

Part a

2021  = $7,000

2022  = $6,000

Part b

2021  = $5,250

Explanation:

Sum of the year`s digit method provide for higher depreciation in early life of the asset with lower depreciation in later years.

Step 1

Some of digits calculation :

Year      Digits

2021        7

2022       6

2023       5

2024       4

2025       3

2026       2

2027        1

Total      28

Step 2

Determine the depreciable amount

Depreciable amount = Cost - Residual value

                                   = $40,000 - $12,000

                                   = $28,000

Step 3

Depreciation expense calculations

2021 = 7 / 28 x $28,000 = $7,000

2022 = 6/ 28 x $28,000 = $6,000

assuming the equipment was purchased on March 31, 2021

2021 = $7,000 x 9/12 = $5,250

Bernie Company sets their prices so that they earn an average 46% gross profit on sales revenue. What is budgeted cost of goods sold for February? Round your answer to the nearest whole number. Don't enter commas or dollar signs.

Answers

Answer:

$1,701,371

Explanation:

Gross Profit = Sales - Cost of Sales

therefore,

In percentage this equation can be expressed according to the Company policy as :

46 % = 146 % - 100%

Cost of Sales = 100/146 x $2,484,001 = $1,701,371

Conclusion :

Budgeted cost of goods sold for February is $1,701,371

David is trying to decide if it makes sense to outsource the purchasing function. He has a chain of 12 restaurants and employs two buyers at an annual fixed cost of $85,000. David estimates that the variable cost of each purchase order placed is $15. An outsourced company will perform the purchasing function for a fixed annual fee of $100,000 plus $5 for each purchase order placed. Last year, David placed 1400 purchase orders.

Required:
a. What was the in-house purchasing cost last year?
b. What would the cost be if outsourced?
c. If David estimates it will place 1600 purchase orders next year, should he outsourced?

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

The computation is shown below;

a) The In-house purchasing cost last year is

= Fixed costs + Variable costs

 =$85,000 + Total number of purchase orders × cost per order

 = $85,000 + 1400 × 15

= $106,000

b)

The outsourcing cost is

Outsourcing cost = Fixed costs +Variable costs

 = $100,000 + Total number of purchase orders × cost per order

= $100,000 + 1400 × 5

 = $107,000

c) Total number of purchase orders = 1600

In-house purchasing cost = 85,000 + 1600 × $15 = $109000

Outsourcing cost = $100,000 + 1600 × $5 = $108000

Yes, David should outsource as the outsourcing cost is less than the in-house purchasing cost.

Ten cavemen with a remaining average life expectancy of 10 years use a path from their cave to a spring some distance away. The path is not easily traveled due to 100 large stones that could be removed. The annual benefit to each individual if the stones were removed is $8.25. Each stone can be removed at a cost of $2.50. The interest rate is 2 %.

Required:
a. Compute the benefit/cost ratio for the individual if he alone removed the 100 stones.
b. Compute the benefit/cost ratio for the individual if the task was undertaken collectively, with each individual removing 10 stones.
c. What maximum amount may be charged by a manager who organizes the group effort if the minimum acceptable benefit/cost ratio is 2?

Answers

Answer:

a. B/C Ratio = 0.296  

b. B/C Ratio = 2.964

c. Y = 12.05 USD will be the maximum amount charged by the manager.

   Y = 12.05 x 10 = 120.54 USD for the whole group of 10

Explanation:

Solution:

Data Given:

Number of Individuals = 10

Number of Stones = 100

Life Expectancy = 10 Years

Annual benefit = 8.25 USD

Stone Removal Cost = 2.50 USD

Interest Rate = 2%

a. If all the stones are removed by one individual:

Cost = 100 stones x Stone Removal Cost

Cost = 100 x 2.50 = 250 USD

Now, we have to calculate the Benefit/Cost Ratio for this individual by using the following formula:

B/C Ratio = [tex]\frac{AB (P/A, 2, 10)}{Cost}[/tex]

Where,

AB = Annual Benefit = 8.25 USD

(P/A, 2%, 10) = 8.983     (From the compound interest table)

Cost = 250 USD

B/C Ratio = [tex]\frac{8.25 * 8.983}{250}[/tex]

B/C Ratio = 0.296

b. Each individual removing 10 stones.

Number of individuals = 10

So, the cost of removing the stones will be:

Cost = 10 x 2.50 = 25 USD

So,

B/C Ratio = [tex]\frac{AB (P/A, 2, 10)}{Cost}[/tex]  

B/C Ratio = [tex]\frac{8.25 * 8.983}{25}[/tex]

 B/C Ratio = 2.964

c.

In this part, we are already given the B/C ratio, now we need to calculate the maximum amount charged by the manager for the help.

B/C ratio = 2

Let, Y be the amount of the manager. So,

B/C Ratio =  [tex]\frac{AB (P/A, 2, 10)}{Cost + Y}[/tex]  

Plugging in the values and solving for Y:

2 = [tex]\frac{8.25 * 8.983}{25 + Y}[/tex]

50 + 2Y = 8.25 x 8.983

2Y = 74.109 - 50

2Y = 24.109  

Y = 24.109/2

Y = 12.05 USD will be the maximum amount charged by the manager.

Y = 12.05 x 10 = 120.54 USD for the whole group of 10

When using the cost of production report to analyze the change in direct materials cost per equivalent unit compared to conversion cost per equivalent unit, an investigation may reveal that direct materials costs a.may increase while conversion costs decrease because the two are separately calculated and depend on separate costs. b.will never decrease when conversion costs decrease. c.always increase between periods if conversion costs increase. d.always decrease between periods if conversion costs increase.

Answers

Answer: a.may increase while conversion costs decrease because the two are separately calculated and depend on separate costs.

Explanation:

When the cost of production report is being used to analyze change in direct materials cost per equivalent unit when compared to the conversion cost per equivalent unit, we should note that an investigation may end up showing that the fluctuation in the the direct materials costs which then brings about an increase or a decrease.

Therefore, the correct option is A "may increase while conversion costs decrease because the two are separately calculated and depend on separate costs".

Marvin Industries must choose between an electric-powered and a coal-powered forklift machine for its factory. Because both machines perform the same function, the firm will choose only one. (They are mutually exclusive investments.) The electric-powered machine will cost more, but it will be less expensive to operate; it will cost $102,000, whereas the coal-powered machine will cost $69,500. The cost of capital that applies to both investments is 10%. The life for both types of machines is estimated to be 6 years, during which time the net cash flows for the electric-powered machine will be $26,150 per year, and those for the coal-powered machine will be $20,000 per year. Annual net cash flows include depreciation expenses.

Answer:

$11,890

13.89%

$17,605

18.25%

Explanation:

Net present value is the present value of after-tax cash flows from an investment less the amount invested.

Internal rate of return is the discount rate that equates the after-tax cash flows from an investment to the amount invested

IRR can be calculated with a financial calculator  

NPV can be calculated using a financial calculator

The electric-powered machine

Cash flow in year 0 = $-102,000

Cash flow in year 1 to 6 = $26,150  

I = 10 %

NPV = $11,890

IRR = 13.89%

the coal-powered machine

Cash flow in year 0 = $-69,500

Cash flow in year 1 to 6 = $20,000

I = 10 %

NPV = $17,605

IRR = 18.25%

Total cost per unit .................. (C) (I) (O)

Required:
Complete the cost schedule. When computing the cost per unit, round to two decimal places.

Answers

Answer:

Results are below.

Explanation:

Relevant range= 25,000 to 100,000

In this range, fixed and variable (unitary) costs remain constant.

To calculate the unitary values, we need to use the following formulas:

Variable cost per unit= Total variable cost / Total number of units

Fixed cost per unit= Total fixed cost / total number of units

Memory chips produced= 45,000

Total variable cost= $1,350,000

Total fixed cost= 810,000

Variable cost per unit= 1,350,000 / 45,000= $30

Fixed cost per unit= 810,000 / 45,000= $18

Total cost per unit= 30 + 18= $48

Memory chips produced= 60,000

Total variable cost= 30*60,000= $1,800,000

Total fixed cost= 810,000

Total cost= $2,610,000

Variable cost per unit= $30

Fixed cost per unit= 810,000 / 60,000= $13.5

Total cost per unit= 30 + 13.5= $43.5

Memory chips produced= 75,000

Total variable cost= 30*75,000= $2,250,000

Total fixed cost= 810,000

Total cost= $3,060,000

Variable cost per unit= $30

Fixed cost per unit= 810,000 / 75,000= $10.8

Total cost per unit= 30 + 10.8= $40.8

Med Max buys surgical supplies from a variety of manufacturers and then resells and delivers these supplies to dozens of hospitals. In the face of declining profits, Med Max decided to implement an activity-based costing system to improve its understanding of the costs incurred to serve each hospital. The company broke its selling and administrative expenses into four activities as shown below:

Activity Cost Pool (Activity Measure) Total Cost Total Activity
Customer deliveries (Number of deliveries) $630,000 7,000 deliveries
Manual order processing (Number of manual orders) 444,000 6,000 orders
Electronic order processing (Number of electronic orders) 231,000 11,000 orders
Line item picking (Number of line items picked) 955,500 490,000 line items
Other organization-sustaining costs (None) 610,000
Total selling and administrative expenses $2,870,500

Med Max gathered the data below for two of the many hospitals that it serves—City General and County General:

Volume Variance : ( Actual production Units - Budgeted Units ) * Cost per unit

Volume Variance = (32,000 - 30,000) * $8 per unit

Volume variance = $16,000 Favorable

Volume variance is the measure of the units produced in comparison with the budgeted units. The favorable variance is one when actual units produced are more than budgeted.

During 2017, Waterway Industries expected Job No. 26 to cost $300000 of overhead, $500000 of materials, and $200000 in labor. Waterway applied overhead based on direct labor cost. Actual production required an overhead cost of $290000, $470000 in materials used, and $190000 in labor. All of the goods were completed. What amount was transferred to Finished Goods

Answers

Answer:

$945,000

Explanation:

The computation of the amount transferred to the finished goods is shown below:

= Material + labor + overhead

= $470,000 + $190,000 + $190,000 × $300,000 ÷ $200,000

= $470,000 + $190,000 + $285,000

= $945,000

hence, the amount transferred is $945,000

A process includes 9 tasks and there are 3 workers. Each task can be assigned to only one worker and each worker must be assigned consecutive tasks.
The time to complete tasks 1 to 9( in seconds) are as follows: 45 55 15 25 50 5 30 95 50
What is the capacity of this process in units per hour?

Answers

Answer:

24.8 per hour

Explanation:

There are 3 workers and hence are three workstations. Consecutive activities are assigned to each workstation such that workload is as uniform as possible

Hence the time in each workstation (WS) is,  

WS1 = 45+55+15 = 115 seconds

WS2 = 25+50+5+30 = 110 seconds

WS3 = 95+50 = 145 seconds

Workstation 3 has the highest processing time and hence is the bottleneck and determines the capacity of the process

Therefore capacity = 1/145 per second = 3600/145 per hour = 24.8 per hour

There are 3 workers and hence are three workstations. Consecutive activities are assigned to each workstation such that workload is as uniform as possible

Hence, the time in each workstation (WS) is,

WS1 = 45+55+15 = 115 seconds

WS2 = 25+50+5+30 = 110 seconds

WS3 = 95+50 = 145 seconds

Workstation 3 has the highest processing time and hence is the bottleneck and determines the capacity of the process,

Therefore, capacity = 1/145 per second = 3600/145 per hour

= 24.8 per hour

What is capacity?

The capacity is the ability to contain or deal with something. It describes your ability to do something or the amount something can hold.

Prior to May 1, Fortune Company has never had any treasury stock transactions. A company repurchased 140 shares of its common stock on May 1 for $7,000. On July 1, it reissued 70 of these shares at $52 per share. On August 1, it reissued the remaining treasury shares at $49 per share. What is the balance in the Paid-in Capital, Treasury Stock account on August 2

Answers

Answer: $70

Explanation:

First, we need to calculate the purchase price per share and this will be:

= Purchase amount / Number of shares bought

= $7000 / 140

= $50 per share

Therefore, the balance in the Paid-in Capital, Treasury Stock account on August 2 will be:

= [70 × ($52 - $50)] + [70 × ($49 - $50)]

= (70 × $2) + ($70 × $-1)

= $140 - $70

= $70

Answers

Answer: $20,101

Explanation:

Profitability of sales = Sales revenue - Cost of goods sold - Activity costs

Activity costs = Customer relation cost + Selling costs + Accounting + Warehousing + Packing + Shipping

= (95 * 30) + (0.11 * 124,400) + (5 * 240) + (0.5 * 4,700) + (0.25 * 4,700) + (0.2 * 70,500)

= $‭35,359‬

Profitability of sales = 124,400 - 68,940 - 35,359

= $20,101
