ACC 315 5-1 Problem Set Question 1 of 10 > 5/5 = : v Your answer is correct. Southeastern Paper is a paper manufacturing company located in the southeastern United States. At its mills, Southeastern Paper turns trees into pulp and manufactures cardboard boxes, rolls of industrial paper, and more. This spring, a hurricane hit the town of Southeastern Paper’s largest mill on the Georgia coastline. The mill has been closed for five months, and Southeastern Paper has been making efforts to clean, rebuild, and reopen operations. Avariety of risks have been identified in relation to the shutdown. Risk i Southeastern Paper hired new vendors for cleanup work. The new vendors are no longer needed, but the billing system was overloaded during the shutdown, and because of the resulting confusion, Southeastern Paper thinks some cleanup vendors may still be receiving payments when they are no longer doing work. ii. Southeastern Paper is afraid there will be theft of inventory while the paper rolls are being stored in a temporary warehouse located at a distance from the mill property. This warehouse lacks the security that the mill had. iii. Southeastern Paper lost data stored on local hard drives at the mill due to water damage from the hurricane. If a hurricane hits one of its other mills, the company may face additional data loss. iv. Southeastern Paper’s accounting department was located at a corporate office down the road from where the hurricane hit. While the accounting department was not affected, Southeastern Paper realizes it would have been unprepared if it had been. V. Southeastern Paper lost a lot of physical inventory in the hurricane. With the year-end audit coming up, Southeastern Paper is worried that there will not be sufficient documentation of the lost inventory and its value. As part of its risk response efforts, Southeastern Paper has implemented internal controls. Match each risk with the appropriate internal control. Internal Control 1. Southeastern Paper hires temporary security guards to monitor inventory and ensure that only authorized personnel have access to the warehouse. 2. Southeastern Paper creates a remote work plan that includes testing the equipment of all corporate personnel and ensuring that they have appropriate network access from home. v Vv 3. Southeastern Paper's data analysts create a vendor payment dashboard. It shows payments made to vendors by category, including the category Temporary Vendors. Southeastern Paper’s management can look at this dashboard to see if any payments are made to temporary vendors after the mill has reopened. The dashboard also sends an email to management if any temporary vendors receive payments over a certain amount so management can review the payments for appropriateness. 4, Southeastern Paper sends out the Internal Audit team to assist its warehouse personnel in valuing the lost inventory. The group does a physical inventory count and ties the data to the most recent inventory count or to the perpetual inventory records before the hurricane. This is standard procedure for Southeastern Paper, but it moved up the inventory count to immediately after the hurricane to ensure an accurate assessment of damage. < < 5. Southeastern Paper creates a server backup location at a network operations center facility in Ohio, where there is less chance of a natural disaster. This facility backs up all the data stored at all Southeastern Paper's mills. n v

Problem 16-11 (Algo)
One of your Taiwanese suppliers has bid on a new line of molded plastic parts that is currently being assembled at your plant. The supplier has bid $0.10 per part, given a forecast you provided of 100,000 parts in year 1; 200,000 in year 2; and 300,000 in year 3. Shipping and handling of parts from the supplier’s factory is estimated at $0.01 per unit. Additional inventory handling charges should amount to $0.005 per unit. Finally, administrative costs are estimated at $20 per month.
Although your plant is able to continue producing the part, the plant would need to invest in another molding machine, which would cost $10,000. Direct materials can be purchased for $0.04 per unit. Direct labor is estimated at $0.02 per unit for wages plus a 50 percent surcharge for benefits and, indirect labor is estimated at $0.010 per unit plus 50 percent benefits. Up-front engineering and design costs will amount to $30,000. Finally, management has insisted that…

tennis balls, tennis clothing, and tennis shoes, all bearing the company's distinctive logo, a large green question mark on a white flocked
tennis ball. The company's sales have been increasing over the past 10 years.
The tennis racket division has recently implemented several advanced manufacturing techniques. Robot arms hold the tennis rackets in
place while glue dries, and machine vision systems check for defects. The engineering and design team uses computerized drafting and
testing of new products. The following managers work in the tennis racket division:

Case 10-6. Just-in-time principles
Warm Space Inc. manufactures electric space heaters. While the CEO, Gwen Willis, is visiting the production facility, the following conversation takes place with the plant manager, Tyra Chastain:
Gwen: As I walk around the facility, I can't help noticing all the materials inventories. What's going on?
Tyra: I have found our suppliers to be very unreliable in meeting their delivery commitments. Thus, I keep a lot of materials on hand so as to not risk running out and shutting down production.
Gwen: Not only do I see a lot of materials inventory, but there also seems to be a lot of finished goods inventory on hand. Why is this?
Tyra: As you know, I am evaluated on maintaining a low cost per unit. The one way that I am able to reduce my unit costs is by producing as many space heaters as possible. This a.llows me to spread my fixed costs over a larger base. When orders are down, the excess production builds up as inventory, as we are seeing now. But…

Ivanhoe's Candles will be producing a new line of dripless candles in the coming years and has the choice of producing the candles in
a large factory with a small number of workers or a small factory with a large number of workers. Each candle will be sold for $10. If
the large factory is chosen, the cost per unit to produce each candle will be $3.00. The cost per unit will be $7.50 in the small actory.
The large factory would have fixed cash costs of $1.8 million and a depreciation expense of $300,000 per year, while those expenses
would be $490,000 and $100,000, respectively in the small factory.
Calculate the accounting operating profit break-even point for both factory choices for Ivanhoe's Candles. (Round answers to

Mini Case Study
Five years ago, Phil Davis left his position at a large company to start Integrated Solutions Co. (ISC), a software design company. ISC’s first product was a unique software package that seamlessly integrated networked PCs. Robust sales of this initial product permitted the company to begin development of other software products and to hire additional personnel. The staff at ISC quickly grew from three people working out of Davis’s basement to over 70 individuals working in leased spaces at an industrial park. Continued growth led Davis to hire seasoned marketing, distribution, and production managers and an experienced accountant, Jan Smith.
Recently, Davis decided that the company had become too large to run on an informal basis and that a formalized planning and control program centered on a budget was necessary. Davis asked the accountant, Jan Smith, to work with him in developing the initial budget for ISC.
Davis forecasted sales revenues based on his projections…
