...Chapter 4 |Accumulating and Assigning Costs to Products |[pic] | QUESTIONS 4-1 The cost of the raw materials entered into production is moved from the raw materials account to the work-in-process inventory account. The cost of manufacturing labor and overhead items are assigned to production by adding them to the work-in-process inventory account. Overhead costs are assigned (or allocated or apportioned) as determined by the cost system. When manufacturing is completed, work is transferred to finished goods inventory, and costs are moved from the work-in-process inventory account to the finished goods inventory account. Finally, when goods are sold their costs are moved from the finished goods inventory account to cost of goods sold. 4-2 Manufacturing organizations face greater challenges in product costing, especially the assignment of overhead costs, than retail or service organizations do. The basic idea behind all manufacturing costing systems is to determine the costs that products accumulate as they consume organization resources during manufacturing, as described above in 4-1. In retail organizations, goods are purchased rather than manufactured; the cost of the goods purchased is entered into an account that accumulates the cost of merchandise inventory in the store. Stores incur various overhead costs such as labor, depreciation on the store, lighting, and heating...

...How it came To Be That Too Many Cooks Spoil the Broth: A Study into the Problems of Ill-Defined Property Rights “Resources are limited, whereas Human wants are unlimited. Economics is the study of how people utilize these goods as to get the highest level of satisfaction.” These are few of the very first words of wisdom every novel economist has to learn. Further on in his pursue of knowledge he is explained; In organizations conflict often revolves around common resources as they are critical for influence, power, performance and even organizational survival. A commons is a shared resource for which access to users is not restricted, and use of the resource subtracts from the other users’ benefit. As first introduced by Hardin in 1968 in his work “The tragedies of the commons”; the very existence of common resources surfaces a very different kind of a problem. When many people have the privilege to use a commons resource and no one user has the right to exclude another, not only is conflict likely, but tragedies of resource inefficiency and exhaustion emerge. Considering that a primary goal of any organization is to use resources effectively and efficiently to achieve its goals, conflict involving commons resources can pose a significant threat to an organization’s performance. To resolve (and even avoid) the tragedy of the commons, a pleura of solutions have been proposed by leading economists. One popular solution suggested by the property rights, territoriality, and social...

...implications for my future nursing practice. Although I am aware many reflective models exist, I have chosen to use Gibbs’s reflective framework as it is a cycle and encourages me to think about what I would do differently next time. This clearly shows Gibbs’ awareness that a nurse will have a similar experience again. This reflection method supports Schon’s (1991 cited Issitt 2003) opinion that reflecting on practice after the event is the most effective way to maintain an improvement as a development can be made. As part of the UKCC Project 2000 pre registration nurses are expected to be able to reflect on practice experiences and reflection can help create holistic and flexible practitioners (Andrews et al 1998). For the purpose of the assignment I will use a pseudonym to protect the client’s identity in accordance with the law as stated by the Department of Health (2003), there is also an obligation stated by the Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC 2008) to protect client confidentiality. This pseudonym is Sue. The first stage of Gibbs’ model is a description of what happened; whilst on a surgical ward I was caring for a lady post operatively who had a bilateral total mastectomy performed. It was her first day post surgery and as per hospital policy she was advised to mobilise as soon as possible to avoid lymphoedema, an obstruction of the lymph flow causing chronic swelling of the limb (Harmer 2008), therefore she asked me if I would assist her to the bathroom.

...IHRM can be defined as a highly dynamic and constantly evolving field with new themes emerging, which transcends traditional approaches. (G. Hofstede, 2001) The assignment contributes in developing a broad, detailed and rational study of Japanese HRM practices mainly recruitment and selection and also training and development. It tells us about what is the basic essence that makes them quintessentially Japanese. It tells how it is advancing towards a continuous evolutionary change. This assignment also tells the reader about the impact of culture, traditions, socio-economic and politico-legal angles that affect the very basis of Japanese HRM structure. Finally it tells the reader about the different changes in HRM practices due to the current scenario and ultimately leading the way and telling about the implications for Japanese HRM practitioners. Japan is kind of very well designed society there is plans and structure for everything (Doole and Lowe 2000). Japanese management puts stress to secure survival, long term growth of company to benefit all incorporating the organization. It focuses on soft S of Mckinsey 7S concept i.e. staff style, skill and subordinate goal. Overall significance of HRM on management is high. There is a high importance of HR with stress on its strategic meaning.

... ENGLISH I The JPPSS Instructional Sequence Guides are aligned with the LA Comprehensive Curriculum. JPPSS Implementation of Activities in the Classroom Incorporation of activities into lesson plans is critical to the successful implementation of the Louisiana Comprehensive Curriculum. The Comprehensive Curriculum indicates one way to align instruction with Louisiana standards, benchmarks, and grade-level expectations. The curriculum is aligned with state content standards, as defined by grade-level expectations (GLEs), and organized into coherent, time-bound units with sample activities and classroom assessments to guide teaching and learning. The units in the curriculum have been arranged so that the content to be assessed will be taught before the state testing dates. While teachers may substitute equivalent activities and assessments based on the instructional needs, learning styles, and interests of their students, the Comprehensive Curriculum should be a primary resource when planning instruction. Grade level expectations—not the textbook—should determine the content to be taught. Textbooks and other instructional materials should be used as resource in teaching the grade level expectations. Lesson plans should be designed to introduce students to one or more of the activities, to provide background information and follow-up, and...

...Strategic Analysis of Syngenta Jolly was a young, bright girl, studying her Bachelor of Business Administration. When she came home from college, her mind was occupied by the assignment given to her in her Business Strategy Class. She had to pick up a company of her choice and complete strategic analysis, over a period of three years, consisting of size of the organization, financial performance, operational performance, some tailored measures of performance relating to the organization’s industry, competitor analysis, strategic actions of the organization, and strategic issues faced. She thought that she would figure out what procedure to follow from her prescribed textbook ‘Strategic Management – Theory and Application,’ by Adrian Haberberg & Alison Rieple. After a certain thought, she chose Syngenta – headquartered at Basel, Switzerland. Jolly referred to the textbook and jotted down the procedure as below. Procedure for doing the Strategic Analysis: 1) Evaluate financial performance: Calculate the following quantities and analyze them and find out the trend in the last three years. Overall Sales Overall Profit Profitability ratios such as Return on Equity (ROE), Return on Assets (ROA), and Return on Capital Employed(ROCE). 2) Measure operational performance: Page 1 of 29 Calculate the following quantities; find out the trend and analyze: Operating profit Operating profit as a percentage of sales (profit margin) Sales per employee Operating profit per employee ...
