Explanation:
Provide arguments that his firm can meet the customer’s specific needs.
,Tom talked about the industry trends, how the firm has been successful and presented price options.
An important point that he didn't address and that is crucial in these cases: it is to explain why the firm is the best option for the customer in terms of what the firm can do to fulfill the customer's needs and help them achieve their goals. This is because different competitors offer the same services and what would set your company apart is how it can better address the customer's needs.
nventory records for Dunbar Incorporated revealed the following: Date Transaction Number of Units Unit Cost Apr. 1 Beginning inventory 490 $ 2.44 Apr. 20 Purchase 320 2.73 Dunbar sold 630 units of inventory during the month. Ending inventory assuming FIFO would be: (Do not round your intermediate calculations. Round your answer to the nearest dollar amount.)
Answer:
Ending inventory assuming FIFO would be $169.4
Explanation:
Under the FIFO system , inventories are priced using the price of the oldest batch in the stock, after which the price of the next oldest batch and this is done in turn. It is based on the principle that the first batch that arrives the store should be issued first.
The 630 units sold would be valued as follows:
$
490 × 2.44= 382.2
140 × 2.73 =1,195.6
630 1,577.8
The value of closing inventory = Value of opening inventory + Cost of purchases - cost of goods sold
= (490× $ 2.44) + ( 320 ×$2.73) - 1577.8 =$169.4
Ending inventory assuming FIFO would be $169.4

Splash Planet is considering purchasing a water park in Atlanta, Georgia, for $1,870,000. The new facility will generate annual net cash inflows of $472,000 for eight years. Engineers estimate that the facility will remain useful for eight years and have no residual value. The company uses straight-line depreciation, and its stockholders demand an annual return of 12% on investments of this nature.
Requirements:
1. Compute the payback, the ARR, the NPV, the IRR, and the profitability index of this investment.
2. Recommend whether the company should invest in this project.
Answer:
Payback period = 3.96 years
Rate of return = 9.34%
NPV = $474,725.97
IRR = 18.938%
Profitability index = 0.254
Explanation:
Initial investment = $1,870,000
Annual cash inflow = $472,000
Number of years = 8
Annual return rate = 12%
Payback period = Initial investment / Annual cash inflows = $1,870,000 / $472,000 = 3.96 years
Rate of return = Net income / Initial investment = ($472,000 - $1,870,000/8) / $1,870,000 = 0.093 = 9.34%
Net present value (NPV) = $474,725.97 (using the NPV CALCULATOR)
Internal rate of return (IRR) = 18.938% (USING THE IRR CALCULATOR)
Profitability index = NPV / Initial Investment = $474,725.97 / $1,870,000 = 0.254
Bonita Construction Company changed from the completed-contract to the percentage-of-completion method of accounting for long-term construction contracts during 2021. For tax purposes, the company employs the completed-contract method and will continue this approach in the future. (Hint: Adjust all tax consequences through the Deferred Tax Liability account.) The appropriate information related to this change is as follows.
Percentage-of-Completion Completed-Contract Difference
2014 $752,200 $586,700 $165,500
2015 683,500 444,700 238,800
Required:
a. Assuming that the tax rate is 30%, what is the amount of net income that would be reported in 2015?
b. What entry(ies) are necessary to adjust the accounting records for the change in accounting principle?
Answer:
(a) Net income that would be reported in 2015 is $478,450
(b) The entries necessary are Construction in process (Debit), Deferred tax liability ( Credit) and Retained earning (Credit).
Explanation:
Percentage-of-Completion Completed-Contract Difference
2014 $752,200 $586,700 $165,500
2015 $683,500 $444,700 $238,800
(a) Pre-tax income for 2015 = $683,500
Income tax expense = 30% × $683,500
= $205,050
Net income = Pre-tax income - income tax expense
= $683,500 - $205,050
= $478,450
(b) Deferred tax liability = Temporary difference×Tax rate
= $165,500 × 30%
= $49,650
Retained earning = Construction in process − Deferred tax liability
=$165,500 − $49,650
=$115,850
The entries necessary are Construction in process (Debit), Deferred tax liability ( Credit) and Retained earning (Credit).
Hank, a calendar-year taxpayer, uses the cash method of accounting for his sole proprietorship. In late December, he performed $20,000 of legal services for a client. Hank typically requires his clients to pay his bills immediately upon receipt. Assume his marginal tax rate is 30 percent this year and will be 33 percent next year, and that he can earn an after-tax rate of return of 12 percent on his investments.a. What is the after-tax income if Hank sends his client the bill in December?After- tax income ?b. What is the after-tax income if Hank sends his client the bill in January? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round "PV Factor" to 3 decimal places. Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)after-tax income ?c. Should Hank send his client the bill in December or January?DecemberJanuaryd. What is the after-tax income if Hank expects his marginal tax rate to be 25 percent next year and sends his client the bill in January? (Round "PV Factor" to 3 decimal places. Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)
Answer: a. $14,000
b. $14,106
c. January
2. $15,535
Explanation:
a. If Hank sends the bill in December.
Tax rate is 30% this year.
Amount is $20,000
After Tax Income = 20,000 * (1 - tax)
= 20,000 ( 1 - 30%)
= $14,000
b. If Hank pays Next year
Tax rate is 33%
After tax return rate of 12%
Amount is 20,000
Tax = 20,000 * 33%
= $6,600.
Because this is next year, the present value of the tax needs to be computed for better comparison.
With an after tax return of 12%, the PV will be,
= 6,600 * PV factor ( 12%, 1 period)
= 6,600 * 0.893
= $5,894
The income therefore will be,
= $20,000 - 5,894
= $14,106
c. Hank should pay in January as he would make more income.
2. Tax rate is 25% next year and income is to be received next year.
Tax = 20,000 * 25%
= $5,000
PV of $5,000 = 5,000 * PV Factor (12%, 1 period)
= 5,000 * 0.893
= $4,465
After tax income = 20,000 - 4,465
= $15,535
Which of the following is generally NOT true and an advantage of going public? a. Facilitates stockholder diversification. b. Makes it easier to obtain new equity capital. c. Makes it easier for owner-managers to engage in profitable self-dealings. d. Establishes a market value for the firm. e. Increases the liquidity of the firm's stock.
Answer:
c.
Explanation:
Based on the answer choices provided it can be said that the option that is not true and an advantage would be that going public Makes it easier for owner-managers to engage in profitable self-dealings. Self dealings involves a deal in which the trustee/corporate official acts more in their own self interest as opposed to the interest of the beneficiary. This would be extremely difficult and not an advantage if the company decides to go public due to them being watched and scrutinized by the public eye. Therefore an action like this would end up badly hurting the company.
Tamarisk Company began operations in 2018 and for simplicity reasons, adopted weighted-average pricing for inventory. In 2020, in accordance with other companies in its industry, Tamarisk changed its inventory pricing to FIFO. The pretax income data is reported below.
Year Weighted-Average FIFO
2018 $373,800 $403,300
2019 391,900 434,700

A) What is Cullumber’s net income in 2017? Assume a 35% tax rate in all years.
B) Compute the cumulative effect of the change in accounting principle from weighted-average to FIFO inventory pricing.
C) Show comparative income statements for Cullumber Company, beginning with income before income tax, as presented on the 2017 income statement.
Answer: Please see explanation column for answer
Explanation:Given
Year Weighted-Average FIFO
2018 $373,800 $403,300
2019 391,900 434,700
2020 412,800 471,500
A)Cullumber’s net income in 2017? There is no 2017 from your queston., Am thinking you mean for 2020. However, the same calculations apply no matter the year, only change to the correct values.
Income before tax = $471,500
Income tax is at 35%=$471,500 x 35%= $165,025
Net income = Income before tax -Income tax = $306,475.
b)Compute the cumulative effect of the change in accounting principle from weighted-average to FIFO inventory pricing.
That is year between 2018 and 2019 before it changed in 2020, therefore 2020 will not be considered
year Weighted-Average FIFO difference
2018 $373,800 $403,300 $29,500
2019 391,900 434,700 $42,800
Total $72,300
tax rate = 35% = $`72,300 x 0.35= $25,303
Net of cumulative effect = Total ndifference before tax - total income tax= $72,300- $25,303= $46,997
c.comparative income statements for Cullumber Company, beginning with income before income tax, as presented on the 2017 you mean 2020 income statement.

Net Income $306,475 $282,555 $262,155 (Income before tax -Income tax)
Under SEC rules, internal controls over financial reporting (ICFR) are processes that provide reasonable assurance that financial reports are reliable. Which of the following is not assured by ICFR? A. Financial reports, records, and data are accurately maintained. B. Transactions are prepared according to GAAP rules and are properly recorded. C. Unauthorized acquisition or use of data or assets that could affect financial statements will be prevented or detected in a timely manner. D. IT controls that contain financial data are maintained.
Answer:
C. Unauthorized acquisition or use of data or assets that could affect financial statements will be prevented or detected in a timely manner.
Explanation:
Internal Control Financial Reporting is a framework designed to help companies manage their financial reporting and achieve the greater goals of risk assessment, control, information and communication, as well as monitoring. One of the weaknesses that could characterize ICFR is its inability to assure timely prevention and detection of unauthorized acquisition or use of data.
The scheme however ensures that financial records are maintained and that transactions are prepared according to GAAP rules. ICFR ensures that misstatements are detected in financial reporting.

Therefore, net operating income earned by product N28X is $ 69,000.
53. To determine how to crash activity times a. normal activity costs and costs under maximum crashing must be known. b. shortest times with crashing must be known. c. realize that new paths may become critical. d. All of the alternatives are true.
Answer:
D. All of the alternatives are true.
Explanation:
Crash activity time are been used in the in different organisations for different reasons. In the case, above the mentioned conditions in all options are been put to consideration. Because in its determination, one has to analyze thoroughly its critical path method in its first step; here the tasks are been shortened before being tackled. Secondly, you identify the newer critical ways in dealing of the things.
Also, normal activity costs and costs under maximum crashing are been made known. Therefore, all options above appear to be one of the steps in critical ways of determining crash activity time.
Calculate the required rate of return for Mudd Enterprises assuming that investors expect a 4.2% rate of inflation in the future. The real risk-free rate is 2.5%, and the market risk premium is 4.5%. Mudd has a beta of 2.1, and its realized rate of return has averaged 13.5% over the past 5 years. Round your answer to two decimal places. %
Answer:
16.15%
Explanation:
Required rate of return is the rat that a investor expect for investment in a specific stock. It also account for the risk associated with that stock.
As per given data
Inflation rate = 4.2%
Real Risk free rate = 2.5%
Risk free rate = 4.2% + 2.5% = 6.7%
Market Risk Premium = 4.5%
Beta = 2.1
To calculate the required rte of return we will use the CAPM formula as below
Required rate of return = Risk free rate + Beta ( Market Risk Premium )
Required rate of return = 6.7% + 2.1 ( 4.5% )
Required rate of return = 16.15%
Assume that Cane expects to produce and sell 93,000 Betas during the current year. One of Cane’s sales representatives has found a new customer that is willing to buy 4,000 additional Betas for a price of $42 per unit. If Cane accepts the customer’s offer, how much will its profits increase or decrease?
Note that the total cost per unit of Betas is $47.
Answer:
decrease by -$4,375,000
Explanation:
Since Cane expects to produce and sell 93,000 Betas during the current year, additional 4000 units would make the total cost be
93,000 + 4,000 = 97,000 units
97,000 x $87 = $8,439,000
To find the decrease or increase in profit, we multiply the total sales volume by the price willing to be paid by the new customer
97,000 x $42 = $4,074,000 (This value is a great loss of profit). By substracting the total cost by amount paid we see a decrease of $8,439,000-$4,074,000= $4,375,000.
Reese, a calendar-year taxpayer, uses the cash method of accounting for her sole proprietorship. In late December, she received a $31,000 bill from her accountant for consulting services related to her small business. Reese can pay the $31,000 bill anytime before January 30 of next year without penalty. Assume Reese’s marginal tax rate is 30 percent this year and will be 40 percent next year, and that she can earn an after-tax rate of return of 6 percent on her investments.a. What is the after-tax cost if she pays the $31,000 bill in December?b. What is the after-tax cost if she pays the $31,000 bill in January?
Answer:
a) The after-tax cost if she pays the bill in December is $21,700
b) The after-tax cost if she pays the bill in January is $19,306.80
Explanation:
a) If she pays the $31,000 bill in December
Present value tax savings = amount × marginal tax rate
= $31,000 × 30%
= $9,300
After-tax cost = Pre-tax cost - present value tax
= $31,000 - $9,300
= $ 21,700
b) If she pays the $31,000 bill in January
Present value tax savings = amount × marginal tax rate
= $31,000 × 40%
= $12,400
Calculation of discount factor = Present value = [tex]\frac{FutureValue}{(1+r)^{n} }[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{1}{(1+0.06)^{1} }[/tex]
= 0.943
Present value tax savings = amount × discount factor
= $ 12,400 × 0.943
= $11,693.20
After-tax cost = Pre-tax cost - present value tax
= $31,000 - $11,693.20
= $ 19,306.80
New York Waste (NYW) is considering refunding a $50,000,000, annual payment, 14% coupon, 30-year bond issue that was issued 5 years ago. It has been amortizing $3 million of flotation costs on these bonds over their 30-year life. The company could sell a new issue of 25-year bonds at an annual interest rate of 11.67% in today's market. A call premium of 14% would be required to retire the old bonds, and flotation costs on the new issue would amount to $3 million. NYW's marginal tax rate is 40%. The new bonds would be issued when the old bonds are called.
Answer:
$699,000
Explanation:
Calculation for New York Waste (NYW) after-tax annual interest savings if the refunding takes place;
First step is to calculate for the old interest:
Old interest $50,000,000(0.14 )(0.6)
= $4,200,000
Second step is to calculate for the New interest:
New interest =$50,000,000(0.1167)(0.6)
= 3,501,000
Last step is to deduct new interest from old interest in order to arrived at the Net annual interest savings
$4,200,000-3,501,000
= $699,000
Therefore the New York Waste (NYW) after-tax annual interest savings if the refunding takes place will be $699,000
Pelamed Pharmaceuticals has EBIT of $ 325$325 million in 2012. In addition, Pelamed has interest expenses of $ 125$125 million and a corporate tax rate of 40 %40%. a. What is Pelamed's 2012 net income? b. What is the total of Pelamed's 2012 net income plus interest payments? c. If Pelamed had no interest expenses, what would its 2012 net income be? How does it compare to your answer in part (b)? d. What is the amount of Pelamed's interest tax shield in 2012?
Answer:
(a) The firms net income is $120 million
(b) Total of Pelamed's 2012 net income plus interest payments is $245 million
(c) Without interest expenses, Pelamed's 2012 net income is $195 million
(d) The amount of Pelamed's interest tax shield in 2012 is $50 million
Explanation:
(a) Net income = (EBIT - Interest expenses) × (1- tax rate)
= ($325 - $125) million × (1 - 40%)
= $200 million × 0.60
= $120 million
(b) Net income plus Interest payments = $120 million + $125 million
= $245 million
(c) Net income without interest = (EBIT) × (1- tax rate)
= $325 million × (1 - 40%)
= $325 million × 0.60
= $ 195 million
(d) Interest tax shield = interest expense × tax rate
= $125 million × 40%
= $50 million
Robert Necco and Nelson Packard are economists at Economic Research Associates. ERA asks Necco and Packard for their opinions about the effects of fiscal policy on real GDP for an economy currently experiencing a recession. Necco states that real GDP is likely to increase if both government spending and taxes are increased by the same amount. Packard states that if both government spending and taxes are increased by the same amount, there is no expected net effect on real GDP.
Regarding the statements made by Necco and Packard:
Necco Packard
A) Correct Correct
B) Correct Incorrect
C) Incorrect Incorrect
D) Incorrect Correct
Answer: B) Correct Incorrect
Explanation:
Whilst it was generally believed at some point that raising taxes and Government Spending by the same amount would have no effect, research has disproven this thought.
This is because it was shown that an increase in Government Spending leads to a larger increase in GDP than an increase in taxes reduces it.
This is because when the Government spends money, the Multiplier effect of Government Spending is always 1 more than that of the Taxes therefore raising taxes and spending by the same amounts still increases the Real GDP because Government Spending will create more income than taxes will take.
Necco is right, Packard is wrong.
It is said that the rational consumer will act according to his or her self-interest, and that self-interest can include a concern for one’s family and friends, but not often society as a whole. Which of the following illustrates this type of decision? Select one: a. The boat rental was worth the additional fish caught, regardless of how little fish we left behind. b. Mr. T. decides not to purchase any case of water bottle so there could be more left for other consumers. c. The rental of recreational vehicles for use in national parks is responsive to concerns of noise pollution. d. Our time was very valuable at that moment, but we stopped to put out the fire before it spread.
Answer:
a. The boat rental was worth the additional fish caught, regardless of how little fish we left behind.
Explanation:
Indeed, this action does not take into account the loss to society, that is, the little fish left behind for others to share. Note from the statement that the emphasis of the consumers that rented the boat was on their self interest (the additional fish caught).
Clark Company estimated the net realizable value of its accounts receivable as of December 31, 2019, to be $178,000, based on an aging schedule of accounts receivable. Clark has also provided the following information: The accounts receivable balance on December 31, 2019 was $190,600. Uncollectible accounts receivable written off during 2019 totaled $13,300. The allowance for doubtful accounts balance on January 1, 2019 was $17,600. How much is Clark's 2019 bad debt expense
Answer: $8,300
Explanation:
Clark Company estimates that the net realizable value of their Accounts Receivable is $178,000. This is while their Accounts Receivable balance on the same date is $190,600.
This would infer that out of $190,600, they only intend on recovering $178,000.
The difference in these figures will be the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts balance at the end of the year because that is the amount that they do not believe they'll receive.
= 190,600 - 178,000
= $12,600
When the year started, the Allowance Balance was $17,600. Uncollectible Amount written off was $13,300. This amount would be written off from this account which would supposedly leave the balance to be,
= 17,600 - 13,300
= $4,300
The balance on the Allowance account is supposed be $12,600 yet the amount written off brings it to $4,300. The bad debts Expense for the year therefore, is the difference between these 2 figures because it is the bad debt expense that was written off from the $12,600 to bring it to $4,300.
= 12,600 - 4,300
= $8,300
Clark's 2019 Bad Debt expense is $8,300

You want to have $2.5 million in real dollars in an account when you retire in 50 years. The nominal return on your investment is 14 percent and the inflation rate is 3 percent. What real amount must you deposit each year to achieve your goal
Answer:
The real amount must you deposit each year to achieve your goal is $1,682.0610
Explanation:
In order to calculate the real amount must you deposit each year to achieve your goal first we have to calculate the real rate as follows:
Real rate=(1+nominal rate)/(1+inflation rate)-1
=(1+0.14)/(1+0.03)-1
=(1.14/1.03)-1
0.10679611(Approx)
So, the real amount must you deposit each year to achieve your goal is calculated by the following formula:
Future value of annuity=Annuity[(1+rate)^time period-1]/rate
$2,500,000=Annuity[(1+ 0.10679611)^50-1]/ 0.10679611
$2,500,000=Annuity*1,486.27188043
Annuity=$2,500,000/1,486.27188043
Annuity=$1,682.0610(Approx).
The real amount must you deposit each year to achieve your goal is $1,682.0610
The motivation that gets us to buy can be the positive the product gives us or the negative. Give me an example of a product whose marketing uses positive and product that uses negative and explain. Don't bother giving me deodorant since I used this example in the notes.
Answer:
Positive motivation is when you try to influence people to do something by offering a reward. For example, car advertisements in which they mention the good features about the model and this can have a powerful effect on consumers by making them believe that with the car, they will feel good and have status and a certain lifestyle.
Negative motivation is when you influence people by making them believe that they might have a negative outcome if they don't do something.

An engineering firm measures its output in standard service hours (SSH) per unit, which is a function of the skill levels of its engineers (skill levels range from an engineering intern to an engineering scientist). The variable cost is $60 per SSH and the fixed cost is $2,000,000 per year. The firm charges $100 for each service per hour. Assume the maximum hours the firm operates (that is the output) is 170,000 per year. a) Compute the break-even point in SSH.b) At what percentage does the break-even occur as compared to the maximum hours the firm operates? c) What is the percentage reduction in the break-even point if the fixed cost can be reduced by 20%? d) Does the break-even point increase or decrease if the charges per service are increased by 10%? e) What is your recommendation? Should the firm reduce the fixed cost or increase the price?
Answer:
Instructions are below.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
The variable cost is $60 per SSH and the fixed cost is $2,000,000 per year. The firm charges $100 for each service per hour. Assume the maximum hours the firm operates (that is the output) is 170,000 per year.
1) To calculate the break-even point, we need to use the following formula:
Break-even point in units= fixed costs/ contribution margin per unit
Break-even point in units= 2,000,000/ (100 - 60)
Break-even point in units= 50,000 hours
2) %of hours= (50,000/170,000)*100= 29.41%
3) Fixed costs= $1,800,000
Break-even point in units= 1,800,000/40
Break-even point in units= 45,000 hours
The number of units required to cover for fixed costs diminished by 10%.
4) Selling price= $110
Break-even point in units= 2,000,000/(110 - 60)
Break-even point in units= 40,000 hours
The number of units required to cover for fixed costs diminished by 20%.
5) In generals terms, it is easier to increase the selling price compared to decreasing fixed costs. In this case, the best option is to increase the selling price. The effect on income and the break-even analysis is higher than decreasing fixed costs.
There is a 10% chance you will get in a serious car accident, incurring damage of $1,990. (There is a 90% chance that nothing will happen.) Your utility function is U (I )equals square root of I. What is the fair price of this policy
Answer:
The answer is $199
Explanation:
Solution
Given that:
There is fair chance of 10% of you involving in an accident.
The damage incurred is =$1990
There is 90% chance that nothing will happen'
Utility function U (1)√1
Now,
We find the fair price of this policy
A fair premium is the amount that enables insurance company to break exactly even. that is to say
economic zero profit = expected costs.
Thus,
EC =p * (The loss of income if the accidents take place) + 1- p (The income loss when accidents foes not take place)
EC = 0.1 ($1990) + 0.9 (0) =
EC = $199 + 0 = $199
Therefore, the fair price of this policy is $199
Suppose that there are three beachfront parcels of land available for sale in Asilomar and six people who would each like to purchase one parcel. Assume that the parcels are essentially identical and that the minimum selling price of each is $595,000. The following table states each person's willingness and ability to purchase a parcel.
Willingness and Ability to Purchase Dollars
Bob 620,000
Cho 570,000
Eric 540,000
Ginny 530,000
Sean 750,000
Yvette 660,000
Which of these people will buy one of the three beachfront parcels?
a. Bob
b. Cho
c. Eric
d. Gianny
e. Sean
f. Yvette
Assume that the three beachfront parcels are sold to the people that you indicated in the previous section. Suppose that a few days after the last of those beachfront is sold, another essentially identical beachfront parcels is sold, another essentially identical beachfront parcel becomes available for sale at a minimum price of $582,500. This fourth parcel _____ be sold, because _____ will purchase it from the seller for at least the minimum price.
Answer:
When the minimum price is 582,500, the forth parcel WILL not be sold because the willingness to pay is LESS and no one will purchase it from the seller for atleast the minimum price.
Explanation:
Bob 620,000
Sean 750,000
Yvette 660,000
The people that will buy one of the three beachfront parcels are Bob, Sean and Yvette because they are the ones willing and has the ability to purchase the beachfront parcel of land available for sale in Asilomar.
Cho, Eric and Gianny may as well have the desire to own the beachfront land in Asilomar, but they do not have the ability to pay the selling price.
Therefore when the minimum price is 582,500, the forth parcel WILL not be sold because the willingness to pay is LESS and no one will purchase it from the seller for atleast the minimum price.

more frequent switching from bonds to money will result in a higher opportunity cost of holding money and lower money management costs. true or false.
Answer:
False
Explanation:
In Economics, more frequent switching from bonds to money would not result in a higher opportunity cost of holding money and lower money management costs because on the average, individuals will have less money to hold. As a result of this, there would be a sharp decline or fall in their opportunity costs.
Also, as individuals make more business transactions, there would be a consequent increase or rise in their money management costs.
Hence, more frequent switching from bonds to money would result in a lower opportunity cost of holding money and higher money management costs.
Suppose that you would like to put money in an account today to make sure your younger sibling has enough money in 10 years to buy a car. If you would like to give your sibling $20,000 in 10 years, and you know you can get 5% interest per year from a savings account during that time, how much should you put in the account now
Answer:
The amount to be deposited today = $12,278.26
Explanation:
The amount to be deposited in the account is the present value of the 20,000 future value discounted at 5%.
The formula is given below
PV = FV × (1+r)^(-n)
PV - Present Value, r- interest rate, n- number of years
PV = 20,000 × 1.05^(-10)
The amount to be deposited today = $12,278.26
You have recently been hired as the vice president for human resource in an advertising agency. One problem that has been brought to your attention is the fact that the creative departments at the agency have dysfunctionally high levels of conflict. You have spoken with members of each of these departments, and in each one it seems that a few members of the department are creating all the problems. All these individuals are valued contributors how have many creative ad campaigns to their credit. The high levels of conflict are creating problems in the departments, and negative moods and emotions are much more prevalent than positive feelings. What are you going to do to both retain valued employees and alleviate the excessive conflict and negative feelings in these departments?
Explanation:
There are two problems that need to be solved in the scenario above: the increase in team conflicts and the retention of valuable employees who are the cause of conflicts. In these two situations, as recently hired as vice president of human resources for an advertising agency, the ideal would be to try to understand how the people management process that occurred before his arrival at the company was carried out, and from there, find strategies for resolve the two main types of conflicts that occur at the advertising agency.
Some solutions arise from the principle of revising the HR policy and establishing a more direct and facilitated communication with employees, in order to increase the employees' perception of a management focused on the employee's well-being and open to feedbacks.
Another solution for reducing conflicts in teams is the assessment and analysis of the profile of each member individually and in a group, in order to monitor the individual and collective performance of each and define assignments according to their skills, generating greater integration between teams and appreciation of each employee, which increases engagement and motivation at work, reducing conflicts and turnover.
