The manager of your company's pension fund is compensated based entirely on fund performance; he earned over $1.2 million last y
Anon25 [30]

Answer:

The compensation to the fund manager is based on the performance of the pension fund. If the fund performs well and earns significant profit, then the compensation to the mangers should increase.  

If it incurs losses, then the argument for capping the compensation of funds managers will gain ground. Note that the manager is being paid according to the pay-for-performance scheme. Thus it is unjustified that his compensation is reduced when there is no significant evidence that his performance was responsible for the poor performance of the fund. The manager has earned over $1.2 million last year. Hence fixing the compensation of managers to $100,000 should be considered only when the fund has under performed drastically. Without such evidence, such capping will only demoralize them and the profitability of the company will fall.

enyata [817]

Answer: $696,000

Explanation:

Given the following;

JULY direct material purchase = $300,000

AUGUST BUDGET

direct material purchase =$480,000

Selling and administrative expenses = $48,000

Depreciation expense = $36,000

Purchase of office equipment = $72,000

Wages expenses = $150,000

Only 70% of the amount of purchases made in a month being paid that month. The remaining 30% paid the next month

Therefore, total Budgeted cash disbursement for the month of August will include ;

30% of July purchase

0.3 × $300,000 = $90,000

70% of August direct material

0.7 × $480,000 = $336,000

Wage expense = $150,000

Office equipment purchase =$72, 000

Selling and administration expenses = $48,000

= $(90,000 + 336,000+ 150,000+72,000+ 48,000) = $696,000.
