Curriculum Development Discussion Board Discuss how elementary students differ in their development and approaches to learning. Activity-Based Costing, Journal Entries, T-Accounts, and Preparing an Income Statement. Custom Furniture Company. The only difference is that this problem uses activity-based costing to allocate overhead costs rather than one plantwide rate. Recall that inventory beginning balances were $25,000 for raw materials inventory, $35,000 for work-in-process inventory, and $90,000 for finished goods inventory. Management of Custom Furniture Company would like to use activity-based costing to allocate overhead costs totaling $1,140,000 rather than one plantwide rate based on direct labor hours. The following estimates are for the activities and related cost drivers identified as having the greatest impact on overhead costs. Transactions for the month of May are shown as follows: 1. Raw materials were purchased during the month for $15,000 on account. 2. Raw materials totaling $21,000 were placed in production: $3,000 for indirect materials (glue, screws, nails, and the like) and $18,000 for direct materials (wood planks, hardware, etc.). 3. Timesheets from the direct labor workforce show total costs of $40,000, to be paid the next month. 4. Production supervisors and other indirect labor working in the factory are owed wages totaling $27,000. 5. The following costs were incurred related to the factory: building depreciation of $29,000, insurance of $11,000 (originally recorded as prepaid insurance), utilities of $4,000 (to be paid the next month), and maintenance costs of $22,000 (paid immediately). 6. Manufacturing overhead is applied to products based on the following cost driver activity for the month: Number of purchase orders 75 Number of machine setups 120 Machine hours 1850 Direct labor hours 3240 7. The following selling costs were incurred: wages of $5,000 (to be paid the next month), building rent of $3,000 (originally recorded as prepaid rent), and advertising totaling $10,000 (to be paid the next month). 8. The following general and administrative (G&A) costs were incurred: wages of $13,000 (to be paid the next month), equipment depreciation of $6,000, and building rent of $7,000 (originally recorded as prepaid rent). 9. Completed goods costing $155,000 were transferred out of work-in-process inventory. 10. Sold goods for $100,000 on account and $90,000 cash. 11. The goods sold in the previous transaction had a cost of $129,000. 12. Closed the manufacturing overhead account to cost of goods sold. Question1: Calculate the predetermined overhead rate for each activity. Question2: Is overhead underapplied or overapplied for the month of May? Based on the balance in the manufacturing overhead T-account prepared in requirement c, prepare a journal entry for transaction 12.

1 MBA 670 Capsim: Strategic Decision Making Project 5 - Creating an International Business Plan Learning Topics 2 MBA 670: Strategic Decision Making Project 5 Learning Topics 1 Assess the Characteristics of MediCorp's Potential Customers in the Selected Country International Cultural Differences Communications, teamwork, organizational hierarchy, and positive attitudes toward management roles are essential in any organization. These are crucial in international business, as problems are often exacerbated by subtle cross-cultural differences. When defining roles in multinational teams whose members have diverse attitudes and expectations about organizational hierarchy, these cultural differences can present a challenge. Culture is a system of values and norms that is shared among a group of people. The ways people interact socially, their mutual expectations, and the values they share all have consequences for doing business and managing across cross-cultural boundaries. How a country's cultural differences relate to international business can be seen in the following examples: • In Japan, social hierarchy and respect for seniority are highly valued and are reflected at the workplace. Those in senior management positions command respect and expect a formality and deference from junior team members. • In Scandinavian countries, societal equality is emphasized. Workplaces therefore tend to have a comparatively flat organizational hierarchy. In turn, this organization can result in relatively informal communication and an emphasis on cooperation across the organization. • The way to address colleagues and business partners varies in different countries. While Americans and Canadians tend to use first names, in Asian countries such as South Korea, China, and Singapore, colleagues tend to use the formal address, Mr. or Ms. So do Germans and many Europeans. • The concept of punctuality also differs between cultures. Where an American may arrive at a meeting a few minutes early, an Indian or Mexican colleague may arrive well after the scheduled start time and still be considered on time. • Attitudes to work also differ. While some may consider working long hours a sign of commitment, others may view it as an encroachment on their personal time and a sacrifice of essential family time. • Greeting customs are highly culture- and situation-specific. In the United States and Canada, a simple handshake while looking a person in the eye is the norm. In Japan, bowing is the traditional greeting—the deeper the bow, the greater the respect shown. In India, you put hands together as in prayer and say "namaste." In Arab countries, men might hug and kiss each other (but not a woman) on the cheek. • In Latin America and the Middle East, the acceptable physical distance needed to respect someone's personal space is much shorter than what most Europeans and Americans feel comfor.

1-an explanation of why the Marbury v. Madison case is a landmark decision. Then briefly describe the Supreme Court case you reviewed and explain the significance of the Marbury v. Madison decision on the outcomes of the case. Be specific. Note: Put the name of the Supreme Court case you reviewed in the first line of your post. You will be asked to respond to a colleague who selected a different Supreme Court case than you did. Powers of the Supreme Court There are a number of Supreme Court cases that have significantly impacted law and public policy. As you progress through the course, you will review many of these cases. For this Discussion, you are asked to consider the significance of the Marbury v. Madison case. In the presidential election of 1800, Thomas Jefferson defeated the incumbent president, John Adams, a Federalist. Before John Adams left office, he appointed judges and justices of the peace for the District of Columbia who also were Federalists. All of the appointments for the new judges and justices of the peace were approved in a mass Senate hearing. However, four of the justices of the peace did not receive their commissions before John Adams’ presidency was over. One of these justices of the peace, William Marbury, petitioned the Supreme Court to force James Madison, the new Secretary of State under Jefferson, to deliver his commission. Marbury cited the Judiciary Act of 1789 which gave the Supreme Court the power to take such an action. In the end, Chief Justice John Marshall of the Supreme Court declared that the Judiciary Act of 1789 was unconstitutional and then denied Marbury’s petition. This decision was the first time in history that the Supreme Court deemed a legislative act to be unconstitutional. As a direct result of the case, the concept of judicial review was established and the checks and balances of the U.S. Government were further defined. 2-a brief explanation of the Supreme Court’s role in policy making. Then describe two strengths and two limitations of the Supreme Court’s role in policy making. Role of the Supreme Court in Policy Making While the U.S. Supreme Court is extremely powerful, theoretically, it is not able to create law or public policy in the way that Congress or the President does. However, the Supreme Court is able to review public policies or laws that are disputed and determine their constitutionality. Supreme Court justices must determine which cases or disputes to hear and then determine if the laws or policies in such cases are constitutional. If they rule that the laws or policies are unconstitutional, they make recommendations about how the laws or policies should be changed or adapted. In this way, the Supreme Court engages in policy making. To prepare for this Discussion: Review the Preface and Introduction in the course text, Landmark Supreme Court Cases: The Most Influential Decisions of the Supreme Court of the United States. Consider the history of the Supreme Court a.

S. President James K. Polk ran on a Democratic platform that supported manifest destiny. Manifest Destiny is the idea that Americans were predestined to occupy the entire North American continent. The last act of Polk's predecessor, John Tyler, had been to annex the Republic of Texas in 1845. Polk wanted to lay claim to California, New Mexico, and land near the disputed southern border of Texas. Mexico, however, was not so eager to let go of these territories. What ensued later is referred in the historical records as the Mexican American War. Examine the causes that precipitated the Mexican American War, as well as the end result of this conflict. .
