Break-Even Point Elrod Inc. sells a product for $75 per unit. The variable cost is $45 per unit, while fixed costs are $48,000. Determine (a) the break-even point in sales units and (b) the break-even point if the selling price were increased to $95 per unit.a. Break-even point in sales units unitsb. Break-even point if the selling price were increased to $95 per unit units Solution a ) BEP (units) = Fixed cost / (selling price -variable cost per unit) = 48,000 / (75-45) = 48,000/ 30 = 1600 units B)BEP = 48,000 /(95 -45) = 48,000 / 50 = 960 units.

Briefly describe body plan of a typical turbellarian and cestode Solution Turbellarians are flatworms with a bilateral symmetry, meaningthat their left and right sides are mirrors of each other. Theycontain no internal cavity nor do they have specialized circulatoryor respiratory organs. This means that they simply use diffusionthrough their skin to get oxygen. Cestodes are tapeworms found in the human body. They have hooksand suckers to attach onto the host. Their body is segmented intoparts..

Briefly describe Hofstede\'s dimensions of national culture. Solution Geert Hofstede first researched the role of national culture within the organisation in a study of many thousand IBM managers. He identified a framework of four dimensions which he argued largely accounted for cross-cultural differences in people\'s belief systems and values, referring to them as: - Uncertainty avoidance - Masculinity - Individualism - Power-distance Later he added a fifth dimension, long versus short-term orientation or \'Confucian dynamism\'. Uncertainty avoidance Uncertainty avoidance measures a society\'s tolerance for uncertainty and ambiguity. In other words, the extent to which a national culture programmes its members to feel comfortable in novel, unknown, surprising, or different situations. Uncertainty avoiding cultures (such as Japan and France) try to minimise the possibility of such situations by strict laws and rules, safety and security measures. Uncertainty accepting cultures (such as Denmark and Sweden) are more tolerant of opinions different from what they are used to and try to have as few rules as possible. Masculinity (versus femininity) Masculine cultures (such as Japan and USA) emphasise \'assertiveness\' compared to \'nurturance\' for feminine cultures (such as Denmark and Sweden). Men in feminine countries have the same modest, caring values as the women, but in masculine countries women are more assertive and competitive; but not as much as men! Individualism (versus collectivism) This dimension measures the degree to which individuals are integrated into groups. Individualist societies (such as UK and USA) expect individuals to look after themselves and their immediate family, differences are admired and the cult of individuals prospers most. Collectivist societies (such as China, Pakistan and Taiwan) have individuals integrated into strong in-groups, such as extended families which protect one another. Here, conformity is generally considered the norm and society\'s rights and responsibilities are dominant and individual needs are subservient. Power-distance Power-distance is the extent to which the less powerful members of organisations accept and expect that power is distributed unequally. In high power-distance organisations, superiors display their power and exercise it. Subordinates expect this behaviour and feel uncomfortable if they do not personally experience their superiors displaying their status and power. In high power-distance cultures (such as France and India) subordinates feel separated from one another. In low power-distance societies (such as Denmark and Austria) members of organisations, and of society, tend to feel equal and relatively close to each other at work. Power is much more likely to be delegated in low power-distance cultures. Confucian dynamism Asian cultures replace the dimension uncertainty avoidance by Confucian dynamism which relates to different values taken from long verses short term orienta.

briefly compare the IASB and FASB in regards to the convergence process. Give your opinion on the reasons why a single set of accounting principles would be beneficial to corporations. Explain your rationale. Solution WHY IS IT IMPORTANT TO HAVE MORE COMPARABLE GLOBAL ACCOUNTING STANDARDS? HOW DOES THAT EFFORT FIT WITH THE FASB’S MISSION? The first priority of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) is to improve financial reporting for the benefit of investors and other users of financial information in U.S. capital markets. We do that by striving to set the highest-quality standards, which collectively are known as Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP). By highest quality, we mean standards that provide users of financial statements with information that is clear, useful, and relevant to their needs, while considering whether the expected benefits of that information justify the costs of providing and using it. The FASB believes that seeking more comparable global accounting standards—improving the quality of accounting standards used around the world while reducing differences among those standards—is consistent with its core mission. Investors, companies, auditors, and other participants in the U.S. financial reporting system benefit from the increased comparability that can result from the closer alignment of standards used internationally. More comparable standards have the potential to reduce costs for both users and preparers of financial statements and make worldwide capital markets more efficient. The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) expects the FASB to consider, in developing standards, the extent to which international comparability is necessary or appropriate in the public interest and for the protection of investors. HOW DOES THE FASB SEEK GREATER COMPARABILITY? As we conclude the bilateral convergence program begun in 2002 by the FASB and the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB), the FASB has implemented a three-part strategy for seeking greater comparability in accounting standards internationally: Developing High Quality GAAP Standards The FASB continually strives to meet the needs of investors and other users of GAAP-based financial reports, both within and outside the United States, by improving the quality of GAAP. The FASB believes that the high-quality standards it develops will continue to influence the shape and future direction of international standards, as they have for more than 40 years. By creating high-quality standards through a best-in-class standard-setting process, the FASB serves as a reference point and benchmark for others. In other words, we will continue to lead by setting an example of excellence. As it undertakes standard-setting projects, the FASB carefully evaluates whether U.S. financial reporting would be improved by implementing approaches consistent with particular IFRS standards. This also would enhance international comparability for the benefit of investor.

Break down the argument. Explicitly identify the component statements (p, q, r, etc.) that make up the argument and show the symbolic form of the argument. Analyze the argument. Decide whether the argument is valid or invalid by manipulating the premises, if necessary, and eventually recognizing the logical form of the argument (e.g. Modus Ponens, Modus Tollens, Fallacy of the Inverse, etc.) 1. This absurd argument is taken from Lewis Carroll\'s Symbolic Logic (1896): Babies are illogical. Nobody is despised who can manage a crocodile. Illogical persons are despised. Hence, babies cannot manage crocodiles. Solution Nobody is despised who can manage a crocodile the above statment is similar to persons who can manage crocodiles are not dispised its inverse is despised persons cannot manage crocodiles Babies are illogical llogical persons are despised despised persons cannot manage crocodiles combining 3 statments babies cannot manage crocodiles.
