Katie and William recently had a baby. Katie is a famous actress and.pdf
Katie and William recently had a baby. Katie is a famous actress and philanthropist. William is a
famous actor and action star. William and Katie are regarded in Hollywood circles as a power
couple. Because of the couple’s fame, there are countless stories about them in the tabloids. They
are always followed by the paparazzi and often featured on covers of national magazines. In fact,
William was once pictured on the cover of a magazine as the “most handsome man alive”. Both
Katie and William have been your clients for 10 years, even before the time they were married.
Because of their different en deavors, Katie and William’s taxable income has historically
varied widely by year, but nonetheless, they always seem to need your tax advice, and are
willing to pay quite well for it.
On December 3, 2015, Katie and William plan to sell the highly-sought after first baby photos
of their newborn daughter, Georgina, to Stars Lifestyle, a national magazine, for $15 million.
Georgina was born October 3, 2015. In exchange for the $15 million payment, Stars Lifestyle
will obtain the publication rights to the pictures in North America. Katie and William,
collectively worth more than $300 million, wish to donate the $15 million proceeds to benefit the
American Red Cross. They also would like to complete this transaction as soon as possible, as
they are currently being followed relentlessly by the paparazzi for the first pictures of their baby,
to the point where they feel that their privacy is being violated daily (just last week Katie spotted
a reporter in a tree outside Georgina’s window). Katie and William file a joint tax return
(married filing jointly) and will have combined adjusted gross income (‘‘AGI’’) of $8 million for
2015, prior to considering any anticipated proceeds from the sale of the photographs. Katie and
William are expected to be in a similar taxable income situation in future years and tax rates are
not expected to change.
Katie and William ask you what are the tax implications if they sell the photos for $15 million
and then claim a charitable contribution deduction on their 2015 joint tax return? Also, do you
have any planning ideas that may reduce the tax impact of the transaction?
Solution
They must file IRS Form 1040 and itemize deductions on Schedule A to claim the charitable
deduction.
Total charitable deduction can’t exceed 50% of your adjusted gross income (AGI). hence they
can claim ($8*.5) $ 4million in 2015 as tax deduction..

Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels,1. What does Marx and Engels mean b.pdf
Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels,
1. What does Marx and Engels mean by alienation?
2. What do they mean by \"externalization of labor\"?
3. How did the division and inequality of classes come to be, according to them?
Solution
1)Marx and Engels have wrote about an enormous range of subjects including
religion,politics,history,economics,housing,philosophy etc.But some people argue that the key to
all their writings is the idea of \"alienation\"Alienation can be illustrated as the separation to
what we really are.As per Marx and Engels the social system makes us aliens or strangers to
ourselves.Marx and Engels thought people are being truly human by stunting effect of a
capitalist system.Here the present system was called capitalism or the bourgeois order.Also like
our previous systems it distorts our true being but our full humanity will flourish in the
communist future.2) The externalisation of labor has two components :- a) Labor is external to
the workers as it doesn\'t belong to him after it is bought for a wage .Also the externalization of
Labor leads to misery instead of pride because work may no longer be the satisfaction of a need
but instead becomes a means to survive.b) Through labor man loses his intellectual and creative
side.His nature is taken away by him and he becomes the inorganic body of a man without even
his creativity and his soul is sold like a product. 3)The analysis of class divisions and struggles is
especially important in the development of an understanding of the nature of capitalisim.For
Marx and Engels classes are defined and structured by a)who owns or possesses property and
means of production and performs the work in the production process b)the social relationships
involved in work and labor. c)who produces and controls the surplus human labor we can
produce .Now these economic factors fully govern the social relationships in capitalism than they
did in earlier societies..

compensation would she likely receive in addition to her salary? Can shareholders do anything to
challenge her level of compensation if they think it is unfairly high in comparison to average
employee compensation within the company?
Solution
Kalina is the CEO of Northfield Corporation. Who sets her compensation, and what types of
compensation would she likely receive in addition to her salary?
CEOs of public corporations get paid based on the recommendations of the board of directors.
The pay package can include salary, bonus, stock options, and deferred compensation.
Can shareholders do anything to challenge her level of compensation if they think it is unfairly
high in comparison to average employee compensation within the company?
Yes they can reduce her sallarry if they think is too much in comparison to the average
employee, they would need to do a review of her performance and compare with the goals of the
company and how much she has contributed to reach them, if she did not work hard enough
having the coditions and the means to reach the goals she should receive less money..

Justin Jordan has been named project manager of the General Sensor Company
Solution
1. Justin should combine the top-down approach with selected bottom-up inputs and checks on
the 50% of cost stage. He is experienced and comfortable with a top-down approach and this
makes sense for the majority of the project. Selective inputs from lower level workers involved
in the tasks would confirm his estimates, or indicate where more information is needed.
2. The most relevant factors are the seriousness of the error, Justin.
Just as Judy Garland and Mickey Rooney cried, Lets put on a show.pdf
Just as Judy Garland and Mickey Rooney cried, \"Let\'s put on a show!\" to solve problems in
their 1940s movie lives, many businesses cry \"Let\'s build teams!\" to attack problems ranging
from low productivity to poor morale, high costs and missed deadlines. Likewise, in our Week 3
Case study, Building a Coalition, we had a team begin to form to address problems in the
Washington, DC school system. Employee teams intuitively seem to be a great idea and are
certainly a growing trend.
Use your newfound knowledge of teams and discuss the following 2 elements:
a. Describe the stages of group development? Why is it important that managers have an
understanding of the group development process?
Identify and discuss three group property or team process elements you feel are most important
in building a high performing team?
Solution
a) Describe the stages of group development? Why is it important that managers have an
understanding of the group development process?
Stages of group development are four:
I Forming: Involves the process of discuss, agreements, contradictions, in a context of
uncertainty, in which members maybe do not feel confident to express freely their own behavior.
In this stage rules are confusing and it is necessary to encourage trust in the team. Managers
should not demand assignments to the team that imply to them high levels of organization and
communication in this stage.
II Storming: In this stage members have understood tasks by do, and they have more knowledge
of capacities of the rest of members, so they are ready to compete. Here you will see to emerge
leaders and are observable the individuals skills. To this stage is important for managers to pay
attention to individual\'s characteristics that will be useful to organization.
III Norming: Now we have the process to establish rules of the team, the basis of cooperation,
punishments and rewards, what is acceptable or not in the group. Here group becomes a cohesive
unit. Morale is high as group members actively acknowledge the talents, skills and experience
that each member brings to the team. This stage is the more productive to the organization, and it
will be necessary to take advantage of performance gains.
IV Performing: Is fourth stage and is the most productive fase. Now team is amalgamated,
leadership is shared, exist ways to channel questions and good ideas. There is a positive
atmosphere now and performance is the most high. Managers need to work to make their team
arrives to this stage, with the promotion of cooperation, communication, trust and a positive
environment.
b) Identify and discuss three group property or team process elements you feel are most
important in building a high performing team?
1) Deal assertively with emotional behavior; in human groups always emerge emotional behavior
that often block themselves to see rationals and team goals, so you can not avoid emotion in
human beings you need to learn to deal with it.
2) Promote a trust environment.

John Diaz owns Pacific Electric, a large electrical contracting firm.pdf
John Diaz owns Pacific Electric, a large electrical contracting firm that provides services to
building construction projects. The company has 2,000 employees and operates in three western
states. Recently the company experienced large losses due to a downturn in the economy and a
slowdown in construction. John thinks the losses were particularly large because his company
has too much fixed cost.
Expand on John\'s thought. How are the large losses related to fixed costs?
Identify a way that John can turn potential fixed costs into variable costs.
Solution
My thought regarding the loss being \'blamed\' on too much fixed costs is this:
Fixed costs are things like rent on buildings and administrative salaries. It sounds like the
company expanded during the \'boom times\' by renting/buying/leasing more buildings in the
three states, which carries with it the associated administrative and staffing fixed costs as well.
Then when the revenue starts slumping, the company still has to cover those fixed costs. The
money has to come from somewhere - if not from revenue, the company would have to take out
loans. The employee wages are a variable cost - those can be \'trimmed\' by lay-offs or reduction
in scheduled hours. (We see that all too frequently these days)..

Joe decided to go to a record store from his home. The store is loca.pdf
Joe decided to go to a record store from his home. The store is located 10 blocks east and 7
blocks north of Joe\'s home (see map).
(a) Suppose Joe just reached the record store now, how many blocks has he walked?
(b) What is the probability that Joe will reach the store?
(c) On his way to the store, Joe wanted to stop by the bank if he passed by it (see map).Given
that Joe reached the store, what is the probability that he also stopped by thebank?
Solution
a)17 blocks, 10 east and 7 north (he only walks on the grid and never walks south or west, so you
can just add).
b) Since it is a fair coin, it would be C(17,7) * 2 - 17 (the probability under the binomial
distribution with n = 17 and p = 1/2 of flipping 7 heads. Note that if you flip more heads than this
you will be north of the store after walking the 17 blockes and not be as far east as the store, so
you will never reach it. Similarly, if you flip less heads, you will be east of the store before you
get that far north and never reach it.
C(17,7) * 2 - 17 = 19448/131072 = 2431/16384 = 0.14837646484375
c)
The probability of going to the bank and then the store would be
C(10,4)2 -10 *C(7,3)2 -7
The probability of going to the store is C(17,7) * 2 - 17
Then, the probability of going to the bank, given that you reached the store, is
C(10,4)2 -10 * C(7,3)2 -7 /(C(17,7) * 2 - 17) = C(10,4) * C(7,3)/C(17,7) = 210 * 35 /19448 =

John Young is a new assistant controller at Richmond Electronics, a large regional consumer
electronics chain. Before John’s recruitment, he was aware of Richmond’s long trend of
moderate profitability. The reports on his desk confirm the slight, but steady, improvements in
net income in recent years. The issue he is facing as he reviews the reports is the decline and
erratic trend in cash flows from operations. John sketched the following comparison ($ in

His sketch shows increasing profits but an ominous trend in cash flow, which is consistently
lower than net income. Upon closer review, Ben noticed three events in the last two years that,
unfortunately, seemed related: Richmond loosened its credit policy. In other words, Richmond
relaxed its credit terms and lengthened payment periods. Accounts receivable balances increased
dramatically. Several of the company’s compensation arrangements, including that of the
controller and the company president, were based on reported net income. What is so ominous
about the combination of events John sees? If you were John, what course of action will you
take?

Joseph Freberg had been with Alcon for 18 months. He had begun his c.pdf
Joseph Freberg had been with Alcon for 18 months. He had begun his career right out of college
with a firm in the Southeast called Cala Industrial, which specialized in air compressors. Because
of his work with Cala, he had been lured away to Alcon, in Omaha, as a sales manager. Joseph’s
first six months had been hard. Working with older salespeople, trying to get a handle on his
people’s sales territories and settling into the corporate culture of a new firm took 16-hour days,
six days a week. During those six months, he also bought a house, and his fiancé, Ellen,
furnished it, deciding almost everything from the color of the rugs to the style of the curtains.
Ellen had taken a brokerage job with Trout Brothers and seemed to be working even more hours
than Joseph. But the long days were paying off. Ellen was now starting to handle some large
accounts and was being noticed by the “right” crowd in the wealthier Omaha areas. Costs for the
new home had exceeded their anticipated spending limit, and the plans for their wedding seemed
to be getting larger and larger. In addition, Ellen was commuting from her apartment to the new
home and then to her job, and the commute killed her car. As a result, she decided to lease
something that exuded success. “Ellen, don’t you think a Mercedes is a little out of our range?
What are the payments?” inquired Joseph. “Don’t worry, darling. When my clients see me in
this—as well as when we
start entertaining at the new house once we’re married—the payments on the car will seem small
compared with the money I’ll be making,” Ellen mused as she ran her fingers through Joseph’s
hair and gave him a peck
on the cheek. By the time of their wedding and honeymoon, Joseph and Ellen’s bank statement
looked like a bullfighter’s cape— red. “Don’t worry, Joseph, everything will turn out okay.
You’ve got a good job. I’ve got a good job. We’re young and have drive. Things will straighten
out after a while,” said Ellen as she eyed a Rolex in a store window. After the wedding, things
did settle down—to a hectic pace, given their two careers and their two sets of parents 1,000
miles away in either direction. Joseph had realized that Alcon was a paternal type of
organization, with good benefits and tremendous growth potential. He had identified whom to be
friends with and whom to stay away from in the company. His salespeople seemed to tolerate
him, sometimes calling him “Little Joe” or “Joey” because of his age, and his salespeople were
producing—slowly climbing up the sales ladder to the numberone spot in the company. While
doing some regular checkup work on sales personnel, Joseph found out that Carl had been giving
kickbacks to some of his buyers. Carl’s sales volume accounted for a substantial amount of the
company’s existing clientele sales, and he had been a trainer for the company for several years.
Carl also happened to be the vice president’s son-in-law. Joseph started to check on the other
reps more closely and discovere.

Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels,1. What does Marx and Engels mean b.pdf
Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels,
1. What does Marx and Engels mean by alienation?
2. What do they mean by \"externalization of labor\"?
3. How did the division and inequality of classes come to be, according to them?
Solution
1)Marx and Engels have wrote about an enormous range of subjects including
religion,politics,history,economics,housing,philosophy etc.But some people argue that the key to
all their writings is the idea of \"alienation\"Alienation can be illustrated as the separation to
what we really are.As per Marx and Engels the social system makes us aliens or strangers to
ourselves.Marx and Engels thought people are being truly human by stunting effect of a
capitalist system.Here the present system was called capitalism or the bourgeois order.Also like
our previous systems it distorts our true being but our full humanity will flourish in the
communist future.2) The externalisation of labor has two components :- a) Labor is external to
the workers as it doesn\'t belong to him after it is bought for a wage .Also the externalization of
Labor leads to misery instead of pride because work may no longer be the satisfaction of a need
but instead becomes a means to survive.b) Through labor man loses his intellectual and creative
side.His nature is taken away by him and he becomes the inorganic body of a man without even
his creativity and his soul is sold like a product. 3)The analysis of class divisions and struggles is
especially important in the development of an understanding of the nature of capitalisim.For
Marx and Engels classes are defined and structured by a)who owns or possesses property and
means of production and performs the work in the production process b)the social relationships
involved in work and labor. c)who produces and controls the surplus human labor we can
produce .Now these economic factors fully govern the social relationships in capitalism than they
did in earlier societies..

Kalina is the CEO of Northfield Corporation. Who sets her compensation, and what types of
compensation would she likely receive in addition to her salary? Can shareholders do anything to
challenge her level of compensation if they think it is unfairly high in comparison to average
employee compensation within the company?
Solution
Kalina is the CEO of Northfield Corporation. Who sets her compensation, and what types of
compensation would she likely receive in addition to her salary?
CEOs of public corporations get paid based on the recommendations of the board of directors.
The pay package can include salary, bonus, stock options, and deferred compensation.
Can shareholders do anything to challenge her level of compensation if they think it is unfairly
high in comparison to average employee compensation within the company?
Yes they can reduce her sallarry if they think is too much in comparison to the average
employee, they would need to do a review of her performance and compare with the goals of the
company and how much she has contributed to reach them, if she did not work hard enough
having the coditions and the means to reach the goals she should receive less money..

1. Justin should combine the top-down approach with selected bottom-up inputs and checks on
the 50% of cost stage. He is experienced and comfortable with a top-down approach and this
makes sense for the majority of the project. Selective inputs from lower level workers involved
in the tasks would confirm his estimates, or indicate where more information is needed.

Just as Judy Garland and Mickey Rooney cried, Lets put on a show.pdf
Just as Judy Garland and Mickey Rooney cried, \"Let\'s put on a show!\" to solve problems in
their 1940s movie lives, many businesses cry \"Let\'s build teams!\" to attack problems ranging
from low productivity to poor morale, high costs and missed deadlines. Likewise, in our Week 3
Case study, Building a Coalition, we had a team begin to form to address problems in the
Washington, DC school system. Employee teams intuitively seem to be a great idea and are
certainly a growing trend.
Use your newfound knowledge of teams and discuss the following 2 elements:
a. Describe the stages of group development? Why is it important that managers have an
understanding of the group development process?
Identify and discuss three group property or team process elements you feel are most important
in building a high performing team?
Solution
a) Describe the stages of group development? Why is it important that managers have an
understanding of the group development process?
Stages of group development are four:
I Forming: Involves the process of discuss, agreements, contradictions, in a context of
uncertainty, in which members maybe do not feel confident to express freely their own behavior.
In this stage rules are confusing and it is necessary to encourage trust in the team. Managers
should not demand assignments to the team that imply to them high levels of organization and
communication in this stage.
II Storming: In this stage members have understood tasks by do, and they have more knowledge
of capacities of the rest of members, so they are ready to compete. Here you will see to emerge
leaders and are observable the individuals skills. To this stage is important for managers to pay
attention to individual\'s characteristics that will be useful to organization.
III Norming: Now we have the process to establish rules of the team, the basis of cooperation,
punishments and rewards, what is acceptable or not in the group. Here group becomes a cohesive
unit. Morale is high as group members actively acknowledge the talents, skills and experience
that each member brings to the team. This stage is the more productive to the organization, and it
will be necessary to take advantage of performance gains.
IV Performing: Is fourth stage and is the most productive fase. Now team is amalgamated,
leadership is shared, exist ways to channel questions and good ideas. There is a positive
atmosphere now and performance is the most high. Managers need to work to make their team
arrives to this stage, with the promotion of cooperation, communication, trust and a positive
environment.
b) Identify and discuss three group property or team process elements you feel are most
important in building a high performing team?
1) Deal assertively with emotional behavior; in human groups always emerge emotional behavior
that often block themselves to see rationals and team goals, so you can not avoid emotion in
human beings you need to learn to deal with it.
2) Promote a trust environment.

John Diaz owns Pacific Electric, a large electrical contracting firm.pdf
John Diaz owns Pacific Electric, a large electrical contracting firm that provides services to
building construction projects. The company has 2,000 employees and operates in three western
states. Recently the company experienced large losses due to a downturn in the economy and a
slowdown in construction. John thinks the losses were particularly large because his company
has too much fixed cost.
Expand on John\'s thought. How are the large losses related to fixed costs?
Identify a way that John can turn potential fixed costs into variable costs.
Solution
My thought regarding the loss being \'blamed\' on too much fixed costs is this:
Fixed costs are things like rent on buildings and administrative salaries. It sounds like the
company expanded during the \'boom times\' by renting/buying/leasing more buildings in the
three states, which carries with it the associated administrative and staffing fixed costs as well.
Then when the revenue starts slumping, the company still has to cover those fixed costs. The
money has to come from somewhere - if not from revenue, the company would have to take out
loans. The employee wages are a variable cost - those can be \'trimmed\' by lay-offs or reduction
in scheduled hours. (We see that all too frequently these days)..

Joe decided to go to a record store from his home. The store is loca.pdf
Joe decided to go to a record store from his home. The store is located 10 blocks east and 7
blocks north of Joe\'s home (see map).
(a) Suppose Joe just reached the record store now, how many blocks has he walked?
(b) What is the probability that Joe will reach the store?
(c) On his way to the store, Joe wanted to stop by the bank if he passed by it (see map).Given
that Joe reached the store, what is the probability that he also stopped by thebank?
Solution
a)17 blocks, 10 east and 7 north (he only walks on the grid and never walks south or west, so you
can just add).
b) Since it is a fair coin, it would be C(17,7) * 2 - 17 (the probability under the binomial
distribution with n = 17 and p = 1/2 of flipping 7 heads. Note that if you flip more heads than this
you will be north of the store after walking the 17 blockes and not be as far east as the store, so
you will never reach it. Similarly, if you flip less heads, you will be east of the store before you
get that far north and never reach it.
C(17,7) * 2 - 17 = 19448/131072 = 2431/16384 = 0.14837646484375

The probability of going to the bank and then the store would be
C(10,4)2 -10 *C(7,3)2 -7
The probability of going to the store is C(17,7) * 2 - 17
Then, the probability of going to the bank, given that you reached the store, is
C(10,4)2 -10 * C(7,3)2 -7 /(C(17,7) * 2 - 17) = C(10,4) * C(7,3)/C(17,7) = 210 * 35 /19448 =

John Young is a new assistant controller at Richmond Electronics, a large regional consumer
electronics chain. Before John’s recruitment, he was aware of Richmond’s long trend of
moderate profitability. The reports on his desk confirm the slight, but steady, improvements in
net income in recent years. The issue he is facing as he reviews the reports is the decline and
erratic trend in cash flows from operations. John sketched the following comparison ($ in
millions):

His sketch shows increasing profits but an ominous trend in cash flow, which is consistently
lower than net income. Upon closer review, Ben noticed three events in the last two years that,
unfortunately, seemed related: Richmond loosened its credit policy. In other words, Richmond
relaxed its credit terms and lengthened payment periods. Accounts receivable balances increased
dramatically. Several of the company’s compensation arrangements, including that of the
controller and the company president, were based on reported net income. What is so ominous
about the combination of events John sees? If you were John, what course of action will you
take?

Joseph Freberg had been with Alcon for 18 months. He had begun his c.pdf
Joseph Freberg had been with Alcon for 18 months. He had begun his career right out of college
with a firm in the Southeast called Cala Industrial, which specialized in air compressors. Because
of his work with Cala, he had been lured away to Alcon, in Omaha, as a sales manager. Joseph’s
first six months had been hard. Working with older salespeople, trying to get a handle on his
people’s sales territories and settling into the corporate culture of a new firm took 16-hour days,
six days a week. During those six months, he also bought a house, and his fiancé, Ellen,
furnished it, deciding almost everything from the color of the rugs to the style of the curtains.
Ellen had taken a brokerage job with Trout Brothers and seemed to be working even more hours
than Joseph. But the long days were paying off. Ellen was now starting to handle some large
accounts and was being noticed by the “right” crowd in the wealthier Omaha areas. Costs for the
new home had exceeded their anticipated spending limit, and the plans for their wedding seemed
to be getting larger and larger. In addition, Ellen was commuting from her apartment to the new
home and then to her job, and the commute killed her car. As a result, she decided to lease
something that exuded success. “Ellen, don’t you think a Mercedes is a little out of our range?
What are the payments?” inquired Joseph. “Don’t worry, darling. When my clients see me in
this—as well as when we
start entertaining at the new house once we’re married—the payments on the car will seem small
compared with the money I’ll be making,” Ellen mused as she ran her fingers through Joseph’s
hair and gave him a peck
on the cheek. By the time of their wedding and honeymoon, Joseph and Ellen’s bank statement
looked like a bullfighter’s cape— red. “Don’t worry, Joseph, everything will turn out okay.
You’ve got a good job. I’ve got a good job. We’re young and have drive. Things will straighten
out after a while,” said Ellen as she eyed a Rolex in a store window. After the wedding, things
did settle down—to a hectic pace, given their two careers and their two sets of parents 1,000
miles away in either direction. Joseph had realized that Alcon was a paternal type of
organization, with good benefits and tremendous growth potential. He had identified whom to be
friends with and whom to stay away from in the company. His salespeople seemed to tolerate
him, sometimes calling him “Little Joe” or “Joey” because of his age, and his salespeople were
producing—slowly climbing up the sales ladder to the numberone spot in the company. While
doing some regular checkup work on sales personnel, Joseph found out that Carl had been giving
kickbacks to some of his buyers. Carl’s sales volume accounted for a substantial amount of the
company’s existing clientele sales, and he had been a trainer for the company for several years.
Carl also happened to be the vice president’s son-in-law. Joseph started to check on the other
reps more closely and discovere.
