Chick-fil-A Action Plan
The Chick-fil-a organization hired Team C as consultants to address needs this organization feels needs resolving. Team C was able to develop a project plan that will address the needs of this organization. Team C created an action plan to help the organization better understand the process of the project plan. In this action plan summary, Team C will discuss the data collection process, the different measures used to for the action plan, taking the data collection and converting into monetary value. Team C will discuss how to take all this information and utilized it terms of training and development for Chick-fil-A.
Data Collection
Collecting data for the project is done to assess how well the project is meeting, or has met the stated goals and objectives. According to Shays (2005), “Data collection is a delaying tactic to decide where to begin" (pg1) There are multiple ways to collect the data including questionnaires, surveys, interviews, and focus groups are types of data collection that require human interaction. Collection methods would be ideal in helping the project team evaluate the differences in customer service, before and after the training. Measurement tests, simulations, and observation are a few other ways for the researchers to collect data. Measurement tests, simulations, and observation are meant to evaluate the depth of the employees learning or practical application of the skills taught as a part of the training program. This is ideal for Chik-fil-A’s training program evaluation. Project teams must research each data collection method to ensure they have selected the best methods of collecting the data for their project, so they are able to properly assess the project's performance (Phillips et al., 2015).
Methods for Data Collection
To ensure project success, the consultant will utilize different data collecting methods. The consultants will conduct interviews with top management to gather input at the reaction level. These interviews will provide a clear understanding of how main stockholders and top management perceive the project, how useful do they believe it will be and how effective do they perceive the chosen communication methods. Feedback on the reaction level is essential to ensure customer satisfaction.
Data collection for the learning level will consist of a small survey given to the trainees. A small survey with mainly close-ended questions will provide information on how the new training program skills are received. Addressing the learning objective will be key in knowing if the trainees understand the new tools and if the learning process is being effective.
Application and implementation level are to measure the various times during the project. Prior every location manager is trained, they will be provided with an action plan with step by steps instructions on h ...

Team Project Deliverable and PresentationYou team works for XY.docx
Team Project Deliverable and Presentation
You team works for XYZ Company, which has a directional strategy focused on expanding the company through horizontal integration. Your team can determine the official name of the company and industry. The company does a great job keeping close watch on its cash position and consistently maintains a positive cash flow; is very solvent; controls its overhead expenses; has solid marketing and sales, production, and human resources performance metrics, and fosters a culture of strategic thinkers. Historically, your company has expanded through a combination of organic (new startups) and inorganic growth and feels it’s time to consider acquisition opportunities.
The Board is looking to engage in a friendly acquisition of a company that will not only increase its market share, but allow it to penetrate new markets and increase the company’s abilities to meet current and future consumer needs and expectations. Since management’s attitude is to pursue a friendly acquisition as opposed to a hostile takeover, your team may consider looking at conglomerates that have experienced significant growth through inorganic growth (acquisitions) and may now be looking to refocus on their core business and are willing to consider divesting some of its businesses that are within your industry. There could be other companies that are under financial duress and receptive to acquisition offers. Your team is a part of the corporate mergers and acquisition (M&A) department and has been assigned the task of identifying two potential acquisition targets. Since your Board is committed to a strategy of horizontally integration, you will be looking for possible acquisitions from within your industry. You will be performing a preliminary analysis of the companies under consideration, and then ultimately recommend one of the companies move forward for a more in-depth valuation by M&A Department.
Notes: The target acquisitions should be publicly traded and have the same fiscal year end, preferably December 31st. In addition, your team is encouraged to select a proper name for your company and the industry for which it is aligned.
To successfully complete your preliminary analysis of the target acquisitions, your team should follow this high level process flow:
1. Select Comparable Companies that Satisfy Inclusion Criteria
2. Conduct Qualitative Research on the Companies
3. Conduct Quantitative Analyses of the Companies (financial)
4. Prepare Report of Findings with Recommendation
Select Comparable Companies
Describe the methodology used to select the target acquisitions. You may want to consider utilizing the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) to identify companies within you r industry. Of course, there are a variety of Internet sites that can assist you in locating firms within your chosen industry, such as Google Finance and Yahoo Finance.

As much as diversification and expansion would greatly help the organization achieve its set goals and objective and also improve its profitability, it is paramount to evaluate the investments. Capital investments are known to require substantial capital and resources so that they can successfully be implemented. Additionally, the article highlights that an organization ought to ensure that they have enough capital resources before deciding to invest in many capital projects. Last but not least, the article stresses the importance of organizations comparing the costs incurred when implementing a project and the resulting benefits to know if the project is financially viable.

This practice is consistent with the industry.
Company Objectives and Related Risks
For this company, there is a specific risk associated with potential errors in the valuation of receivables, the existence of receivables, and the cutoff of sales. This risk results from REDTOP Sports’ interest in expanding to a global market. Helmet sales in Europe are expected to increase significantly in the near future and REDTOP would like to be in a position to obtain a significant market share in Europe. REDTOP Sports would like to finance this growth through an additional stock offering during the next year. To assure that the stock offering is successful, some pressure has been exerted on management to meet slightly optimistic growth levels over the past two years. Bonuses for top management have been partially based on the achievement of these growth goals.
Summary Financial Information
Sales of REDTOP Sports continue to grow. Over the last five years, sales have climbed at an average annual rate of 27%. When compared to other companies in this industry, the growth in earnings per share (EPS) over the past two years has been at the same level as the growth for the industry: 39%. In comparing this company to the S&P 500, the company’s EPS has increased at 39% while the EPS of the S&P 500 has increased at 14% (about 2.8 times more). The growth in accounts receivable has been primarily due to the increased sales demand. Current-year recorded sales total $99,133,000. The accounts receivable balance for the current year consists of approximately 500 accounts, primarily from retail and sporting goods stores. The individual accounts range from approximately $300 to $65,000. The year-end balance in the ac ...

An internal auditor is examining inventory control in a merchandising division with annual sales of US $3,000,000 and a 40% gross profit rate. Tests show that 2% of the monetary amount of purchases do not reach inventory because of breakage and employee theft. Adding certain controls costing US $35,000 annually could reduce these losses to .5% of purchases. Should the controls be recommended?
A.No, because the cost of the added controls exceeds the projected savings.
B.Yes, because the projected saving exceeds the cost of the added controls.

Team Project Deliverable and Presentation
You team works for XYZ Company, which has a directional strategy focused on expanding the company through horizontal integration. Your team can determine the official name of the company and industry. The company does a great job keeping close watch on its cash position and consistently maintains a positive cash flow; is very solvent; controls its overhead expenses; has solid marketing and sales, production, and human resources performance metrics, and fosters a culture of strategic thinkers. Historically, your company has expanded through a combination of organic (new startups) and inorganic growth and feels it’s time to consider acquisition opportunities.
The Board is looking to engage in a friendly acquisition of a company that will not only increase its market share, but allow it to penetrate new markets and increase the company’s abilities to meet current and future consumer needs and expectations. Since management’s attitude is to pursue a friendly acquisition as opposed to a hostile takeover, your team may consider looking at conglomerates that have experienced significant growth through inorganic growth (acquisitions) and may now be looking to refocus on their core business and are willing to consider divesting some of its businesses that are within your industry. There could be other companies that are under financial duress and receptive to acquisition offers. Your team is a part of the corporate mergers and acquisition (M&A) department and has been assigned the task of identifying two potential acquisition targets. Since your Board is committed to a strategy of horizontally integration, you will be looking for possible acquisitions from within your industry. You will be performing a preliminary analysis of the companies under consideration, and then ultimately recommend one of the companies move forward for a more in-depth valuation by M&A Department.
Notes: The target acquisitions should be publicly traded and have the same fiscal year end, preferably December 31st. In addition, your team is encouraged to select a proper name for your company and the industry for which it is aligned.
To successfully complete your preliminary analysis of the target acquisitions, your team should follow this high level process flow:
1. Select Comparable Companies that Satisfy Inclusion Criteria
2. Conduct Qualitative Research on the Companies
3. Conduct Quantitative Analyses of the Companies (financial)
4. Prepare Report of Findings with Recommendation
Select Comparable Companies
Describe the methodology used to select the target acquisitions. You may want to consider utilizing the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) to identify companies within you r industry. Of course, there are a variety of Internet sites that can assist you in locating firms within your chosen industry, such as Google Finance and Yahoo Finance.

Case 9-56: Judging the quality of a client’s internal audit function and determining the effects of internal audit’s work
Case study for advance auditing discussion
CPAs is performing the audit of REDTOP Sports. You are on the external audit team for that engagement. Following is some information about the client and its internal audit function. After reviewing this information, you will be asked to assess the quality of the internal audit function and whether the external auditor should rely on work performed by the internal auditors.
General Background Information about REDTOP Sports
REDTOP Sports Company is a publicly held manufacturing company. The primary activities of REDTOP Sports Company include the design and manufacture of sporting and athletic goods. The major product lines are bicycle helmets for infants, youths, and adults and other bicycle accessories, including child bicycle seats, car bicycle carriers, and water-bottle cages.

and performance.
Project Case Scenario
Introduction:
Along her drive home, idling along in the slow crawl of the afternoon rush hour, Susan replayed
the events of the last few months over and over in her mind. The news of a merger shocked
everyone, and tension in the office was at an all-time high. This was Susan's first merger, and, in
many ways, she hoped it would be her last. As the only certified HR specialist with an advanced
degree, Susan was asked to work with a consultant to draft a plan detailing the culture, structure,
and leadership needs of the HR office. It was an exciting but weighty assignment - one that had
the potential to affect the entire organization for better or worse. On one hand, Susan could play
it safe and try not to "ruffle any feathers." After all, what if the executive art of the organization
disagreed with her plan? What if the plan had a negative impact on her coworkers? On the other
hand, she knew that change was needed, and playing it safe would likely lead to very few
changes. She believed that if she presented a strong plan, it could lead to making this office a
great place to work for everyone.
In the morning, Susan will meet with the consultant and discuss recommendations. Then she'll
need to prepare a plan to present to the Board of Directors a few days later.
Background Information: United Services
United Services began operations in 1990 to provide health and wellness services to the elderly
and the disabled. Positioned as a locally sourced and operated organization, United Services
flourished. By 2010, there were approximately 400 care providers with eight managers, and the
support services to match. The organization's leadership was formed from a regulatory
perspective to provide a stable and trusted service to the community.
The HR office includes six people: one director, one manager, two recruiters, and two
generalists. The current Director, Susan, is being promoted to the VP position. Short of that, no
other information - about positions, job descriptions, and even whether everyone will have a
position after the merger - has not been finalized. As a result, stress in the office is at an all-time
high. Another contributor to the stress level is that fact that, during the merger, the HR office will
go from six to sixteen people and will end up with several redundancies. Not only that, but
mergers are an ideal time to eliminate positions and streamline processes.

Plethora Service began operations in 2005. A regional operation near United, Plethora employs
300 caregivers, ten handlers, and also has similar support services. In large part, the business
