Some types of performance appraisal include;
1. The 360-degree feedback appraisal where opinions about the employee's performance are sourced from the employee's subordinates, his peers, and seniors in the organization.
2. Peer assessment where opinions about the employee's performance are gotten from his peers.

The balance sheet provides a snapshot of the financial condition of a company. Investors and analysts use the information given on the balance sheet and other financial statements to make several interpretations regarding the company's financial condition and performance. Cute Camel Woodcraft Company is a hypothetical company. Suppose it has the following balance sheet items reported at the end of its first year of operation. For the second year, some parts are still incomplete. Use the information given to complete the balance sheet. Cute Camel Woodcraft CompanyBalance Sheet for Year Ending December 31 (Millions of Dollars) Year 2 Year 1 Year 2 Year 1 Assets Liabilities and equity Current assets: Cash and equivalents Accounts rece vable Inventories Total current assets Net fixed assets Net plant and equipment Current liabilities: $2,767 Accounts payable $0 176 996 $0 1,266 3,712 8,437 1,013 Accruals 2,970 Notes payable $6,750 Total current liabilities 937 $937 2,813 $3,750 Long-term debt 3,515 8,250 Total debt $4,687 Common equity: Common stock Retained earnings 9,141 7,313 3,937 Common stock Retained earnings Total common equity 9,141 7,313 Y 3,937 11,250 $15,000 $14,063 Total assets $18,750 15,000 Total liabilities and equity $18,750 Given the information in the preceding balance sheet-and assuming that Cute Camel Woodcraft Company has 50 million shares of common stock outstanding-read each of the following statements, then identify the selection that best interprets the information conveyed by the balance sheet.
Cute Camel's pool of relatively liquid assets, which are available to support the company's current and future sales, decreased from Year 1 to Year 2
This statement is,_________ because:
A) Cute Camel's total current asset balance actually increased from $6,750 million to $8,437 million between Year 1 and Year 2
B) Cute Camel's total current liabilities balance decreased by $1,687 mililion between Year 1 and Year 2
C) Cute Camel's total current liabilities balance increased from $1,013 million to $1,266 million between Year 1 and Year 2
Answer:
1. Year 2 Cash and Cash Equivalents = Current Assets - Accounts Receivable - Inventories
= 8,437 - 1,266 - 3,712
= $3,459
2. Year 2 Net Plant & equipment = Total assets - Total current assets
= $18,750 - 8,437
= $10,313
3. Year 2 Total current liability = Accruals + Notes Payable
= $176 + 996
= $1,172
4. Year 2 Retained earnings = Total Common Equity - Common Stock
= $14,063 - 9,141
= $4,922
5. This statement is False because:
A) Cute Camel's total current asset balance actually increased from $6,750 million to $8,437 million between Year 1 and Year 2
Current Assets are a pool of relatively liquid assets, which are available to support the company's current and future sales and they increased from Year 1 to 2.

The balance sheet gives us information regarding the company. Both th investors and the analyst of the cute Carmel woodcraft company use it for accessing their performance.The sheet is made for the first and the second year basis. Year 2 the Cash and Cash Equivalents = Current Assets - Accounts Receivable - Inventories. Hence equals $3,459Next the both years Net Plant & equipment = Total assets - Total current assets Thus is $10,313. Thus Total CL = Accruals + N.Payable = $1,172. A 2 Retained earnings = Total Common Equity - Common Stock = $4,922.Hence the option A is correct.

___What is the firm's inventory turnover ratio?
___What is the firm's TIE?
___What is the firm's debt/assets ratio?
___What is the firm's ROA?
___What is the firm's ROE?
Answer:
1. Current ratio = Current Asset / Current Liability
= 24,940 / 18,920
= 1.32
2. Quick ratio = (Current Asset-inventory) / CL
= (24,940-13,760)/18,920
= 0.591
3. Days sales outstanding = (Avg AR / Sales) * 365
= 9,890/51,600 * 365
= 70.0
4. Total assets turnover = Sales/Total assets
= 51,600 / 43,000
= 1.2
5. inventory turnover ratio = Cost of Goods Sold / Average inventory
= 48,246 / 13,760
= 3.51
6. TIE = EBIT / Interest Expense
= 2,451/927
= 2.64
7. Debt/assets ratio = Total debt/Total asset
= 43,000/27,735
= 1.55
8. ROA = Net income/Total asset
= 990/43,000
= 0.0230
9. ROE = Net income/Total equity
= 990/15,265
= 0.0649

a) true
b) false
Answer:
The answer is False.
Explanation:

Since all around the world different automobile maker work in different economies with a different set of strategies that varies according to the economic situations. For example, the strategy to work in a developed economy will be different from the developing economy. Therefore, all automobile makers will not follow the same strategy so it will not be in the same strategic group.

Explanation:
a) Depreciation / Impairment Expenses:
1) Storage Shed = $8,400 ($87,000 + 3,000 - 6,000) / 10
2) Pickup Truck = $7,000 ($39,000 - 4,000) / 5
for 2015 = $5,250 ($7,000 x 9/12)
3) Patent Rights = $5,600 ($28,000/5)
for 2015 = $5,600 /2 = $2,800
4) Truck for 2016: $7,000/2 = $3,500
5) Depreciation is an accounting method for expensing the cost of a fixed asset over its useful life. It is based on estimate and there are many methods for estimating the depreciation expense for the various fixed assets.
6) Impairment is like depreciation as a method for expensing cost of an asset. The difference is that while depreciation is used for tangible non-current assets, impairment is for intangible non-current assets. Another difference is that impairment is determined at the end of the period when the asset is checked for impairment based on fair value.

Assume that Pope Enterprises held a $10,000, 10 percent, six-month note signed by Mary Drew. On December, 1, 2015, the maturity date, Drew dishonored the note. At this point, Drew owes a total of $10,500, which is comprised of the principal of $10,000 plus interest in the amount of $500 (or $10,000 x 10% x 6/12). Prepare the December 1 entry for Pope by selecting the account names and dollar amounts from the drop-down menus. If there are multiple debits or multiple credits, please enter the account titles in alphabetical order.
Answer:
Prepare the December 1 entry for Pope:

24. You have saved $4,000 for a down payment on a new car. The largest monthly payment you can afford is $350. The loan will have a 12% APR based on end-of-month payments. What is the most expensive car you can afford if you finance it for 48 months
Answer:
The most expensive car can be afforded is = $17290.89
Explanation:
The down payment of a new car = $4000
The mothly payment (annuity ) = $350
Interest rate on the rate = 12% = 12% / 12 per month.
Now we have to calculate the most expensive car that can be afforded with the finance time of 48 months.
Below is the calculation:
[tex]Present \ value = annuity \times \left [ \frac{1-(1+r)^{-n}}{r} \right ] \\= 350 \times \left [ \frac{1-(1+ 0.01)^{-48}}{0.01} \right ] \\= 13290.89 \\[/tex]
[tex]\text{Total value of car} = savings + present \ value \\= 4000 + 13290.89 \\= 17290.89[/tex]

Explain the concept of fraud in organizations as emerging ethical issues. Give example of an organization who have done fraud and being convicted.
When you take your first job, you decide to start saving right away for your retirement. You put $5,000 per year into a saving plan, which interest rate 10% per year. Five years later, you move to another job and stop making contributions to the saving plan. If the first plan continued to earn interest for another 35 years, determine the future worth in year 40.
Answer:
FV= $857,840.94
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
First investment:
Annual deposit= $5,000 per year
Interest rate= 10%
Number of years= 5
Second investment:
Number of years= 35
Interest rate= 10%
Lumpsum= first investment
First, we need to calculate the future value of the first investment. We will use the following formula:
FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i
A= annual deposit
FV= {5,000*[(1.1^5) - 1]} / 0.10
FV= $30,525.5
Now, the future value of the second investment.
FV= PV*(1+i)^n
FV= 30,525.5*(1.1^35)
FV= $857,840.94
Suppose a five-year, $ 1 comma 000 bond with annual coupons has a price of $ 902.86 and a yield to maturity of 5.7 %. What is the bond's coupon rate?
Answer:
The coupon rate is 3.41%
Explanation:
The price of a bond is calculated as the present value of the annuity payments of its interest plus the present value of the face value of the bond. The formula to calculate the price of the bond is attached.
As the bond is an annual coupon paying bond, we determine the following,
r = 5.7%
n = 5 years or 5
The C or coupon payment is unknown. Let x be the coupon rate paid by the bond. Then C or coupon payment is 1000 * x or 1000x.
We know the current price of the bond. Thus putting in the available values for all the variables, we can calculate the value of x which is the coupon rate.
902.86 = 1000x * [(1 - (1+0.057)^-5) / 0.057] + 1000 / (1+0.057)^5
902.86 = 1000x * (4.246965615) + 757.92296
902.86 - 757.92296 = 4246.965615x
144.93704 / 4246.965615 = x
x = 0.03412 or 3.412% rounded off to 3.41%
What does a descriptive study seek to accomplish?
The correlation between the fund returns is 0.1560. What is the expected return and standard deviation for the minimum-variance portfolio of the two risky funds?
Answer:
The answer is given below
Explanation:
The question is not complete. Given that:
[tex]E(r_s)=11\%,E(r_b)=8\%, \sigma(r_s)=33\%,\sigma(r_b)=25\%[/tex], ρ = 0.1560
From the covariance matrix, Cov (B, S) = [tex]\rho*\sigma_b*\sigma_s=0..1560*33*25=128.7[/tex]
The minimum-variance portfolio is gotten using the formula:
[tex]w_{min}(S)=\frac{\sigma_B^2-Cov(B,S)}{\sigma_S^2+\sigma_B^2-2Cov(B,S)}=\frac{(25^2)-128.7}{33^2+25^2-2(128.7)}=\frac{625-128.7}{225+1089-257.4}=0.4697\\\\w_{min}(B)=\frac{\sigma_S^2-Cov(B,S)}{\sigma_S^2+\sigma_B^2-2Cov(B,S)}=\frac{(33^2)-128.7}{33^2+25^2-2(128.7)}=\frac{1089-128.7}{225+1089-257.4}=0.9089[/tex]
the expected return for the minimum-variance portfolio is:
[tex]E(r_{min})=w_{min}S*E(r_s)+w_{min}B*E(r_b)=11*0.4697+0.9089*8=12.44\%[/tex]
the standard deviation for the minimum-variance portfolio is:
[tex]\sigma_{min}=[w_S^2\sigma_s^2+w_B^2\sigma_B^2+2w_Bw_SCov(B,S)]^\frac{1}{2} =[0.4687^2*33^2+0.9089^2*25^2+2*0.9089*0.4687*128.7]^\frac{1}{2}=29.41\%[/tex]

Alden Corp. has the following balances as of December 31, 2019:Total Assets $90,000Total Liabilities 60,000Total Equity 30,000Calculate the debt to equity ratio. A. 0.64.B. 0.92.C. 1.56.D. 256.
Answer:
2.00
Explanation:
Calculation of the debt to equity ratio
Using this formula
Debt to equity ratio= Total liabilities/Total Shareholders equity
Where,
Total liabilities=60,000
Total Shareholders equity =30,000
Let plug in the formula
Debt to equity ratio=60,000/30,000
Debt to equity ratio =2.00
Therefore debt to equity ratio will be 2.00

McLin, Inc., is a calendar year S corporation. Its AAA balance is zero. Determine the tax aspects of the following transactions. If an amount is zero, enter "0". a. McLin holds $90,000 of AEP. Tobias, the sole shareholder, has an adjusted basis of $80,000 in his stock. Tobias is paid a $90,000 salary. Ignore the 20% QBID.
Answer:
$10,000
Explanation:
Given that:
McLin holds $90,000 of AEP, this implies what is salary is made of;
Tobias, the sole shareholder, has an adjusted basis of $80,000 in his stock.
Tobias is paid a $90,000 salary income.
Ignore the 20% QBID
We are to determine the tax aspects of the transactions
Since the company receives a $90000 for salary expense. Thus Tobias basis is zero, then :
The tax aspect of the transaction is : ($90000 - $80000)
The tax aspect of the transaction = $10,000
Select the most appropriate answer about bringing components from other continents.
a. It potentially results in better products for the customer.
b. It never affects innovation of the final product.
c.It has no impact on the production lines in the home country.
d. It always lowers the quality of the final product.
e. It always increases the cost of the final product.
Answer:
A. It potentially results in better products for the customer.
Explanation:
When components for the production of a good are imported from other continent, such could potentially results in better products for the customer because most often than not, the exporting country has superior knowledge base in terms of manufacturing these component parts which can be utilized by the importing country.
Moreover, companies import components for various reasons; either to reduce or save cost or they found superior materials somewhere else . Where they found superior materials in in other continent, then the chances of making good or better product is high because of these superior components.
Also, one of the gains in globalization is that one can source for materials or components in other continent for products that can be made locally with high quality and value.
Texas-Q Company produces and sells barbeque grills. Texas-Q sells three models: a small portable gas grill, a larger stationary gas grill, and the specialty smoker. In the coming year, Texas-Q expects to sell 20,000 portable grills, 50,000 stationary grills, and 5,000 smokers. Information on the three models is as follows:
Portable Stationary Smokers
Price $90 $200 $250
Variable cost per unit 45 130 140
Total fixed cost is $2,128,500.
Required:
1. What is the sales mix of portable grills to stationary grills to smokers?
2. Compute the break-even quantity of each product.
Answer:
1.
Sales mix
Portable grills = 20000/75000 = 4/15 or 26.67%
Stationary grills = 50000/75000 = 2/3 or 66.67%
Smokers = 5000/75000 = 1/15 or 6.67%
2.
Break even in units
Overall = 2128500 / 66 = 32250 units
Portable = 32250 * 4/15 = 8600
Stationary = 32250 * 2/3 = 21500
Smokers = 32250 * 1/15 = 2150
Explanation:
1.
The sales mix is the proportion of sales in units that each product holds in the in relation to the total overall sales in units of all products. The sales mix is calculated as follows,
Sales mix proportion of Product A = Sales in units Product A/Total number of sales in units of all products
The total number of sales in units of all products is,
Total sales in units = 20000 + 50000 + 5000 = 75000 units
Sales mix
Portable grills = 20000/75000 = 4/15 or 26.67%
Stationary grills = 50000/75000 = 2/3 or 66.67%
Smokers = 5000/75000 = 1/15 or 6.67%
2.
We will compute the overall break even point in units in then divide it according to the sales mix to calculate the break even in units of each product.
To calculate the overall break even in units, we need to determine the weighted average contribution per unit.
Weighted average contribution per unit = 4/15 * (90 - 45) + 2/3 * (200 - 130) + 1/15 * (250 - 140)
Weighted average contribution per unit = 66
Break even in units
Overall = 2128500 / 66 = 32250 units
Portable = 32250 * 4/15 = 8600
Stationary = 32250 * 2/3 = 21500
Smokers = 32250 * 1/15 = 2150
Assuming all other factors remain constant, if variable cost per unit increases, then the break-even point will:
Answer:
The break-even point in units increases.
Explanation:
The break-even point in units is the number of units required to cover for the fixed costs. In this sales level, the net income is zero.
To calculate the break-even point in units, you need to use the following formula:
Break-even point in units= fixed costs/ (selling price - unitary variable cost)
If the unitary variable cost increases, the contribution margin per unit decreases. Therefore, now you need to sell more units to cover for the fixed costs. The break-even point in units increases.
In Sheridan Company, the Cutting Department had beginning work in process of 8800 units, transferred out 25300 units, and had an ending work in process of 5000 units. How many units were started by Sheridan during the month?
Answer:
The units were started by Sheridan during the month is 21500 units
Explanation:
The units started in the month can be derived from the below formula:
units started =units completed-beginning work-in process+ending work-in process
units completed and transferred out=25300 units
beginning work-in process is 8800 units
ending work-in process is 5000 units
units started=25300 units-8800 units+5000 units=21500 units
