Trustmark provides more than 2 million people with flexible medical, life, and disability benefits and fitness and wellness services. The company, headquartered in Lake Forest, Illinois, has more than 6,200 full- and part-time employees working in twenty five locations across the United States. Trustmark experienced steady growth until mid-1990, when it experienced financial pressures that forced it to re-evaluate its operations. Trustmark concentrated on core competencies, sold off businesses, and focused on generating capital. Once the company was financially sound, Trustmark executives moved to create a culture that would be open to innovation and opportunity. The challenge was to create a culture where all employees felt they could challenge that status quo and seek new opportunities. The key to creating this culture was developing effective leaders who supported it. Trustmark used workshops and 360-degree feedback to help the "Trustmark Renaissance," a radical change in the organization culture and mindset, succeed. The leadership program includes sessions, attended by senior leaders, directors, and managers, during which participants learn about leadership practices, such as how to inspire a shared vision, challenge the process, enable others to act, and encourage with the heart. During these sessions, participants also receive feedback from their 360-degree assessments. Participants also get one-on-one coaching where they can discuss their leadership challenges and their feedback. Participants are asked to identify development areas to focus on during the next step in the process, a two-day workshop. At the workshop, participants learn more about the leadership practices and how to improve the areas identified in their feedback. Participants leave the workshop with an improvement plan for improving their leadership effectiveness. Participants are paired with partners who are expected to provide post-workshop support, exchange action plans, and commit to follow-up to ensure success in using what they learned. 1- What development activities are used in this program? Why are they important? 2- What data or outcomes should be collected to monitor the effectiveness of the leadership development program? Explain the business reason for your choice or outcomes or data.

b. challenge the process
c. enable others to act
d. encourage with the heart.
The business reason for the above-stated outcomes is that these outcomes will demonstrate that participants have actually improved their leadership skills. Their improved leadership skills will galvanize them to become effective leaders who could create and grab new business opportunities for the overall growth of the company.
Explanation:
Creating a culture open to innovation and opportunity will enable Trustmark to become competitive.
Leadership workshops are sessions where participants learn and improve their leadership skills.

Kingston Company, which needs 10,000 units of a certain part to be used in its production cycle, can make or buy the part. If Kingston buys the part from Utica Company, Kingston could not use the released facilities in another manufacturing activity within the coming year. 60% of the fixed overhead applied will continue regardless of which decision option is chosen. The following per-unit cost information to make the part by Kingston is available: Direct materials $ 37 Direct labor 148 Variable overhead 74 Fixed overhead applied 93 $ 352 Cost to buy the part from Utica Company $ 85 In deciding whether to make or buy the part, Kingston's total relevant cost to make the part would be:
Answer: $2,962,000
Explanation:
60% of the fixed overhead cannot be avoided which means that only 40% can be avoided. This is the amount to include in the analysis.
To make 10,000 units, the cost would be:
= Direct materials + Direct labor + Variable Overhead + Fixed overhead applied
= (10,000 * 37) + ( 10,000 * 148) + (10,000 * 74) + (10,000 * 93 * 40%)
= 370,000 + 1,480,000 + 740,000 + 372,000
= $2,962,000
Since a cell phone is a private good, if Neha chooses to spend $300 on a cell phone, Neha would get $300 of benefit from the cell phone and Teresa wouldn't receive any benefit from Neha's choice. If Neha still spends $300 on a cell phone and Teresa chooses to contribute $300 to the public park, Neha would still receive the $270 of benefit from Teresa's generosity. In other words, if Neha decides to keep the $300 for a cell phone and Teresa decides to contribute the $300 to the public project, then Neha would receive a total benefit of $300 $270
Answer:
In other words, if Neha decides to keep the $300 for a cell phone and Teresa decides to contribute the $300 to the public project, then Neha would receive a total benefit of:
$570.
Explanation:
Neha has, in this situation, maximized his benefits to the detriment of the public good. This is an illustration of the tragedy of the commons. The tragedy of the common is an economic problem that explains the loss that the society incurs when some persons like Neha neglect to contribute to the common good because they are solely concentrated on pursuing their individual goals for personal gains.
This year Don and his son purchased real estate for an investment. The price of the property was $630,000, and the title named Don and his son as joint tenants with the right of survivorship. Don provided $358,000 of the purchase price and his son provided the remaining $272,000. Has Don made a taxable gift and, if so, in what amount
Answer:
$28,000
Explanation:
Calculation for Don taxable gift amount
Taxable gift amount=[$358,000 − ($630,000)/2] − $15,000
Taxable gift amount=[$358,000 −$315,000] − $15,000
Taxable gift amount=$43,000-$15,000
Taxable gift amount=$28,000
Therefore Don has made a taxable gift of the amount of $28,000
Changes from the Cash Flow Statement (Indirect Method) A recent statement of cash flows for Colgate-Palmolive reporting the following information (dollars in millions): Operating Activities Net income $1,957.20 Depreciation 347.6 Cash effect of changes in Receivables 69.8 Inventories 134.7 Other current assets 31 Payables 125.2 Other 43.8 Net cash provided by operations $2,238.30 Based on the information reported on the statement of cash flows for Colgate-Palmolive, determine whether the following accounts increased or decreased during the period: Receivables, Inventories, Other Current Assets and Payables.
Answer:
a. Receivables increased during the period.
b. Inventories increased during the period.
c. Other Current Assets increased during the period.
d. Payables increased during the period.
Explanation:
Given:
Colgate-Palmolive
Cash Flow Statement (Operating Section Only)
Details $'million
Operating Activities Net income 1,957.20
Depreciation 347.60
Cash effect of changes in Receivables –69.80
Inventories –134.70
Other current assets –31.00
Payables 125.20
Other 43.80
Net cash provided by operations 2,238.30
Therefore, we have:
a. Receivables
The negative amount of $69.80 millions indicates that Receivables increased during the period. This is because, as Receivables increase without paying cash to the business, less cash is available for the business. This makes the increase to be negative in the Cash Flow Statement.
b. Inventories
The negative amount of $134.70 millions indicates that Inventories increased during the period. This is because, as Inventories increase and held in the store without being sold for cash, less cash is available for the business. This makes the increase to be negative in the Cash Flow Statement.
c. Other Current Assets
The negative amount of $31 millions indicates that Other Current Assets increased during the period. This is because, as Other Current Assets increase and without being converted to cash, less cash is available for the business. This makes the increase to be negative in the Cash Flow Statement.
d. Payables
The positive amount of $15.20 millions indicates that Payables increased during the period. This is because, as Payables increase and without cash being paid, more cash is available for the business. This makes the increase to be positive in the Cash Flow Statement.
Golden Generator Supply is approached by Mr. Stephen, a new customer, to fulfill a large one-time-only special order for a product similar to one offered to regular customers. Golden Generator Supply has excess capacity. The following per unit data apply for sales to regular customers:
Direct materials $180
Direct manufacturing labor 170
Variable manufacturing support 250
Fixed manufacturing support 140
Total manufacturing costs 740
Markup (10% of total manufacturing costs) 74
Estimated selling price $814
Required:
If Mr. Stephen wanted a long-term commitment, and not a one-time-only special order, for supplying this product, calculate the most likely price to be quoted assuming the markup remains the same?
Answer:
$814
Explanation:
With regards to the above, if it charges a price below the full cost and markup, it will not be able to sustain such in the long run.
However, when a company received one time only, then they may be willing to charge a lower price in order to cover a portion of their fixed cost when there is extra capacity; whereas in the long run, they will have to charge at full cost so that they will not lose money.
Yankee Express is offering qualified customers a new credit card that offers an introductory rate of .5 percent per year, compounded monthly for the first 6 months, then increasing to 17.3 percent compounded monthly. Assume you transfer a balance of $6,300 from your existing credit card to Yankee Express, and make no subsequent payments. How much credit card interest will you owe at the end of the first year? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)
Answer: $582.15
Explanation:
Total amount owed in 6 months = 6,300 * ( 1 + 0.5%/12)⁶
= $6,315.77
Interest increases to 17.3%.
Amount owed at the end of the year:
= 6,315.77 * (1 + 17.3%/12)⁶
= $6,882.16
Interest owed = Amount owed end of year - Beginning balance
= 6,882.16 - 6,300
= $582.15
XYZ company sells wooden carvings for $300 each. The direct materials cost per unit is $160 and the direct labor per unit is 2 hours at a rate of $26 per hour. Manufacturing overhead (all fixed costs) is applied based on labor hours at a rate of $36 per hour. XYZ makes and sells 1,000 units per period. How many units must XYZ sell to breakeven
Answer:
818 units
Explanation:
Unit Contribution margin
= 300 - 160 - (2 × $26)
= $88
Fixed cost period
= (2 × $36) × 1,000 units
= $72,000
Break even = Fixed cost / Contribution margin
Break even = $72,000 / $88
Break even = 818 units
Therefore, XYZ company must sell 818 units to break even.

Explanation:
a. Assume that Spindler acquired the surfboards on September 1, 2020, and made payment on December 1, 2020. What is the effect of the exchange rate fluctuations on reported income in 2020?
Since the U.S. Dollar per Brazilian Real on 1-Sep-20 is higher than the U.S. Dollar per Brazilian Real on 31-Dec-20, the effect of the exchange rate fluctuations on reported income in 2020 is a foreign exchange gain calculated as follows:
Foreign exchange gain on 31-Dec-20 = Value of surfboards in Brazilian real * (U.S. Dollar per Brazilian Real on 1-Sep-20 - U.S. Dollar per Brazilian Real on 31-Dec-20) = BRL640,000.00 * ($0.24 - $0.23) = $6,400

Foreign exchange gain on 31-Mar-21 = Value of surfboards in Brazilian real * (U.S. Dollar per Brazilian Real on 1-Dec-20 - U.S. Dollar per Brazilian Real on 1-Mar-21) = BRL640,000.00 * ($0.25 - $0.235) = $9,600
c. Assume that Spindler acquired the surfboards on September 1, 2020, and made payment on March 1, 2021. What is the effect of the exchange rate fluctuations on reported income in 2020 and in 2021?
c-1. Since the U.S. Dollar per Brazilian Real on 1-Sep-20 is lower than the U.S. Dollar per Brazilian Real on 31-Dec-20, the effect of the exchange rate fluctuations on reported income in 2020 is a foreign exchange loss calculated as follows:
Foreign exchange loss on 31-Dec-20 = Value of surfboards in Brazilian real * (U.S. Dollar per Brazilian Real on 1-Sep-20 - U.S. Dollar per Brazilian Real on 31-Dec-20) = BRL640,000.00 * ($0.24 - $0.25) = -$6,400

A borrower is interested in comparing the monthly payments on two otherwise equivalent 30 year FRMs. Both loans are for $100,000 and have a 7% interest rate. Loan 1 is fully amortizing, where as Loan 2 has negative amortization with a $120,000 balloon payment due at the end of the life of the loan. How much higher is the monthly payment on loan 1 versus loan 2
Answer:
The monthly payment in Loan 1 is higher than in loan 2 by:
(665.30 - 566.94) = $98.36
Explanation:
Solution:
Comparison of Loan 1 and Loan 2 in terms of monthly payments.
For the first loan, we have to calculate equal monthly payments with the following details:
Principal = $ 100,000,
Monthly Interest rate = 7/12 = 0.58% ,
Term = 360 months
Use the PV = C (1 - (1+r)-n ) / r ,
where PV = Principal, r = monthly rate, n = 360 and
find C (EMI) = $665.30
NOTE: (Excel function is used: PMT(rate, year, PV) formula for convenience)
For Loan 2, we have to understand a few things.
The original loan principal is $ 100,000,
but you are allowed to do a balloon payment of $ 120000 at the end of 30 years.
The present value of the Balloon payment can be deducted from the principal to find out the monthly cash payments to be done.
The monthly payments will of course be lower since a lump sum balloon payment is done at the end.
The calculation is similar to the above. In this scenario, the Monthly payment comes out to be $ 566.94
Hence,
The monthly payment in Loan 1 is higher than in loan 2 by:
(665.30 - 566.94) = $98.36

It is better to ___ than to ___.
A. pay with a credit card; use cash
B. pay down a credit card; save the money
C. save the money, pay off a credit card
D. use cash; save the money
Answer:
It is better to pay down a cred card than to save the money.
Or B
Explanation: I just took the quiz.
It is better to "save the money, pay off a credit card" than to "use cash". The correct option is C.
Why is it important to save money early?The first step toward financial independence is saving money. The sooner children and teenagers begin saving, the more probable it is that it will become a habit. Children and teenagers can benefit from compound interest by saving frequently and early. Finding ways to generate additional money might help kids and teenagers increase their savings.
This is because paying off a credit card debt can help reduce overall debt and save money in the long term by avoiding high-interest charges. On the other hand, using cash may provide a sense of security and control over spending, but it does not necessarily address existing debt or help build credit history.
Thus, the ideal selection is option C.

Unitary product cost= 17 + 7 + 3 + (893,000 / 47,000)
Unitary product cost= 27 + 19
Unitary product cost= $46
Now the income statement:
Sales= 42,000*84= 3,528,000
COGS= (42,000*46)= (1,932,000)
Gross profit= 1,596,000
Total Selling and administrative expenses= (42,000*4) + 560,000= (728,000)
Net operating profit= 868,000
The variable costing method incorporates all variable production costs (direct material, direct labor, and variable overhead).
Unitary variable product cost= 17 + 7 + 3
Unitary variable product cost= $27
Now, the income statement:
Sales= 3,528,000
Total variable cost= 42,000*(27 + 4)= (1,302,000)
Total contribution margin= 2,226,000
Total fixed manufacturing cost= (893,000)
Total Selling and administrative expenses= (560,000)
Net operating profit= 773,000
The difference between mediation and arbitration is that __________. Group of answer choices in mediation the mediator is brought into the dispute to resolve the issues, whereas in arbitration the arbitrator merely listens to the dispute in arbitration the arbitrator actually decides who is right and who is wrong, whereas in mediation the mediator suggests different outcomes in mediation there must be a union representative present, whereas in arbitration no union representative attends in arbitration there is both a mediator and an arbitrator present who decide the outcome of the dispute
Answer:
In arbitration the arbitrator actually decides who is right and who is wrong, whereas in mediation the mediator suggests different outcomes.
Explanation:

Suppose that France and Germany each produce wheat and cars. By using all available resources and technology, France can produce at most 30 units of wheat and 12 cars per year, and Germany can produce at most 25 units of wheat and 15 cars per year. Suppose that, to protect the domestic car industry, the government of France decides that France will produce 6 cars per year. Assuming that opportunity costs are constant, at most how many units of wheat can France produce?
Answer:
15
Explanation:
Opportunity cost is the cost of the next best option forgone when one alternative is chosen over other alternatives
For France, the opportunity cost of producing one car = 30/12 = 2.5 wheats
If the production of cars is fixed at 6 cars per year, the highest amount of wheat that would be produced = 2.5 x 6 = 15

The premium liability at December 31, 2015 is?
Answer: $108875
Explanation:
First, we calculate the Premium liability at December 31, 2020 which will be:
= (480,000 × 45%) - $110,000/8 × 4
= (216000 - 110000)/8 × 4.
= $53000.
Premium liability at December 31, 2021 will be:
= 53000 + [(620000 × 45%) - $130,000]/8 × 3
= 53000 + 55875
= $108875

If most cartel members keep their agreement to cut back production: a. it's not profitable in the short run for another member to increase production. b. it's profitable in the short run for another member to increase production. c. cheating by another member won't be detected. d. the losses associated with cheating are internalized by the cheater.
Answer: b. it's profitable in the short run for another member to increase production.
Explanation:
This refers to an oligopolistic market where there are few producers of a good. These producers can come together to create a cartel that fixes prices for the goods and services they produce.
If they agree to cut back production, this will have the effect of increasing prices due to a reduction in supply. If a member decides to increase production, they would enjoy profits in the short term from the increased prices.
The other members would however respond by increasing production as well so those profits would stop towards the long run.
In 2020, the CEO of Crimson, Inc., entertains 9 clients at a skybox in Memorial Stadium for a single athletic event during the year. Substantive business discussions occurred at various times during the event. The box cost $11,300 per event and seats 11 people. (The cost of a regular, nonluxury box seat at Memorial ranges from $90 to $180.) Refreshments served during the event cost $820 (and were separately itemized on the bill Crimson received).
Required:
How much of these costs may Crimson deduct?
Answer:
The amount of these costs Crimson may deduct is $1,400.
Explanation:
The amount of these costs Crimson may deduct can be calculated as follows:
Costs of refreshments served during the event = $820
Higher of the cost of nonluxury box seat at Memorial = $180
Number of people the box can seat = 11
Costs of the seat = Higher of the cost of nonluxury box seat at Memorial * Number of people the box can seat = $180 * 11 = $1,980
Total cost of entertainment = Costs of refreshments served during the event + Costs of the seat = $820 + $1,980 = $2,800
50% of the total cost of entertainment = $2,800 * 50% = $1,400
Allowable deduction = Total cost of entertainment - Elimination of 50% of the total cost of entertainment = $2,800 - $1,400 = $1,400
Therefore, the amount of these costs Crimson may deduct is $1,400.
Album Co. issued 10-year $200,000 debenture bonds on January 2. The bonds pay interest semiannually. Album uses the effective interest method to amortize bond premiums and discounts. The carrying value of the bonds on January 2 was $185,953. A journal entry was recorded for the first interest payment on June 30, debiting interest expense for $13,016 and crediting cash for $12,000. What is the annual stated interest rate for the debenture bonds
Answer: 12%
Explanation:
Stated interest rate is used in the calculation of the annual interest payment.
Interest payment = Face value of bonds * Stated interest rate
Annual Interest payment = Semi annual interest payment * 2
= 12,000 * 2
= $24,000
24,000 = 200,000 * Stated interest
Stated interest = 24,000 / 200,000
= 0.12
= 12%
