...Kristen’s Cookie Co. – Katherine Fanola Individual Assignment Question 1: Draw a Flow Diagram Question 2: How long will it take to fulfill a rush order? The answer is 26 minutes. First, the customer will order which will not take any time. Then, Kristen begins by washing and mixing which will have a cycle time of 6 minutes. Next, spooning will take Kristen 2 minutes, leaving a finish time at 8 minutes (6 min+2min). Then Kristen’s roommate will heat the oven which will take 1 minute leaving a finish time of 9 minutes (8 min+1 min). The cookies will bake for 9 minutes leaving a finish time of 18 minutes (9 min+9 min). Time for the cookies to unload and cool down will then be an additional 5 minutes leaving a finish time of 23 minutes (18 min+5 min). Last step is for customer to pay and for the money to be collecting taking a total of 3 more minutes and leaving a finish time of 26 minutes (23 min + 3 min). Therefore, total time to fulfill a rush order is 26 minutes. Question 3: How many orders can you fulfill in a night, assuming you are open for 4 hours each night? The answer is 22 dozen cookies. Operating for 4 hours in a night is equivalent to operating for 240 minutes. If each order size is one dozen cookies, then order completion time for 1 batch will be 26 minutes. Then, the time for every additional dozen of cookies after that will take 10 minutes. It will take 236 minutes for 22 dozen cookies to be ordered in this case, and it will take 246...

...To: Steve Howe From: Cristina Aravena Date: September 21, 2015 Re: Mark Down Client Mark Down came to the law firm of Dewey, Cheatum, and Howe. We did a will for him stating that all his assets go to the children since his wife previously past. He executed a power of attorney to his son, Slowe, giving him the power to handle all of his assets. Mark Down health started deteriorating and Slowe is worried that Mark may need Medicaid. Slow wants to remove Mark’s assets of $300,000 brokerage account and give them to his children. Since Slowe said Mark is losing competency and doesn’t want to deal with any financial matters anymore, Slowe is asking if he can transfer the money. Right now that would put Mark at a 5 year period of ineligibility for long term Medicaid care. According to New York law, there are limitations to how much a power of attorney can gift a year. In the Matter of Ferrara 7 N.Y. 3d 244 (2006), decedent George J. Ferrara, executed a will stating that his entire assets will go to the Salvation Army. When the decent became hospitalized in Florida, his nephew Dominick Ferrara came and visited then decedent, then told Dominick to obtain powers of attorney so that [he] could attend to [decedents] affairs. (id. 248) “Florida powers of attorney apparently authorized Dominick and john Ferrara to write checks on decedent’s bank accounts and liquidate certificates of deposit”.

Complutense University of Madrid. Spain. cimunnoz@ccee.ucm.es Abstract. This research study is aimed, based on empirical evidence, at measuring the relationship between the use of the Accounting Information Systems (AIS) by the Small and Medium Sized Enterprises (SMEs) in Spain, and firms’ improved performance indicators and productivity. This empirical study is based on a survey carried out among small and medium-sized firms to ascertain the extent to which development and implementation of accounting information systems had taken place, and subsequently an analysis was made as to how much this introduction may impact on improvement in outcome indicators and productivity. As interesting results we have found that there is a positive relationship among the SMEs that use AIS for fiscal and bank management and better performance measures. This research provides value added in accounting literature given the scarcity of works dealing with the relationship between the application and use of AIS and performance and productivity indicators in SMEs in Spain.

...2suggestions for Chinese enterprises’ application ABC 15 Bibliography 15 1. Introduction 1.1 Research background With the rapid development of the national economy, enterprises’ competition is increasingly fierce; many companies are using advanced science and technology to achieve competitive advantage in the market. Market competition and technological progress are the two fundamental economic factors which generate activity-based costing. Since The beginning of 1980s of the 20th century, the activity based cost method is paid a wide range of attention; the developed countries gradually adopt it in a number of advanced enterprises, and it continuously develops in the practice. Traditional Costing emphasizes on the accounting and control of the direct materials and direct labor and other direct costs, while for indirect costs it uses the single number standard as the basis for the allocation. In the case that products variety is single, the proportion of indirect costs is smaller, and it still can provide...

...Bartlett's Test of Sphericity shows the value of significance sig=.000 which reflects the strong correlation between household behavior and shopping behavior and rejects the null hypothesis. In the communalities table, the initial is by definition, always equals to 1. While in the extraction column, variables with high values are well represented in the common factor space. In the above table of communalities, all variables have high values, near to 1, and thus are well represented. The screen plot graphs the eigenvalue against the component number. You can see these values in the first two columns of the table immediately above. From the third component on, you can see that the line is almost flat, meaning the each successive component is accounting for smaller and smaller amounts of the total variance. In general, we are interested in keeping only those principal components whose eigenvalues are greater than 1. Components with an eigenvalue of less than 1 account for less variance than did the original variable and so are of little use. In the case of above table, three principal components; 1, 2 and 3 are kept. Explain the model...

...“ Polysar Ltd Case” Brief Introduction to Polysar Limited Polysar Limited is the Canada’s largest chemical company and the world’s largest producer of synthetic rubber and latex and a major producer of basic petrochemicals and fuel products. The organization is structured into three groups: petrochemicals, rubber and diversified products; the rubber group accounts for 46% of Polysar’s sales, whose main products are butyl and halobutyl, and whose principal customers are tire manufacturers. Rubber group is composed by two divisions NASA (North America & South America) and EROW (Europe & elsewhere); Butyl is produced by NASA at its Sarnia 2 plant, and by EROW at its Antwerp plant. EROW’s demand exceeds its manufacturing capacity, so EROW “buys” butyl from NASA. Presentation This presentation aims to explain to the board of directors the results of operations for NASA Rubber Division for the first nine months of 1986, it is important that this presentation integrates reports since the reading of data alone is not sufficient to evaluate firm’s performance. In fact, according to data in statements, in the first 9 months results are not as good as expected, and this would entail a negative evaluation of the NASA’s management team, but the team worked well. The main problem lies in the transfer of costs. Polysar uses a cost-based transfer price, in particular a full cost transfer price including both variable and fixed costs; the system is based on budgeted...

...HBSP Product Number TCG129 THE CRIMSON PRESS CURRICULUM CENTER THE CRIMSON GROUP, INC. Converse Health System I don’t get it! We switched St. Luke’s from a profit center to a standard expense center, and yet they continue to encourage the PCPs to admit patients that we all know could be treated as outpatients. What’s going on? Maybe we should just switch back to profit centers and be done with it. The speaker was Gus Mahler, Chief Financial Officer of Converse Health System (CHS). He was speaking with Rob Shuman, M.D., CHS’s Senior Vice President for Medical Affairs, about his concern that, despite a change in the control structure and incentive system at one of the system’s hospitals, many primary care physicians (PCPs) were continuing to admit to the hospital patients who could be treated appropriately in a less expensive setting. He wanted to enlist Dr. Shuman’s help with the problem. BACKGROUND Converse Health System began through a merger of St. Luke’s Hospital and Medical Center with HealthGroup. St. Luke’s was a 283 bed tertiary care facility located in downtown Mansfield. HealthGroup consisted of two hospitals: Mansfield Memorial Hospital and Lakeview Medical Center. Mansfield Memorial was a 454 bed tertiary care facility located approximately 2 miles from St. Luke’s. Lakeview was a smaller hospital about 2 miles from Mansfield and St. Luke’s. The merger also involved a large visiting nurse association and several smaller providers, including an occupational...
