Your project to obtain charitable donations is now 30 days into a planned 40-day project. The project is divided into three acti

adell [148]

Answer:

1. schedule variance = -$52,500

2. SPI = 0.65

3. CPI = 0.56

Explanation:

to get the solution, we calculate for BRWS and BRWP

first we calculate the budgeted revenue of the work scheduled for each activity using this formula:

budgeted revenue * planned completion

A = 25,000 x 100percent

= $25000

B = 150,000 x (25/30) percent

= $125000

C = 50000 x 0percent

= 0$

total = $25000+$125000+$0

= $150000

Next we calculate budgeted revenue of work performed (brwp)

calculated using this formula:

budgeted revenue x actual completion

A = 25000 x 90percent

= 22500 dollars

B = 150000 x 50percent

= $75000

C = 50000 x 0%

= $0

total = 22500 + 75000 + 0

= $97500

1. schedule variance = BRWP - BRWS

= $97500 - $150000

= -$52500

we have a negative schedule, telling us that the project is behind schedule

2. schedule performance index = revenue of work performed divided by revenue of work schedule

= 97500/150000

= 0.65

3. cost price index = revenue of work performed divided by actual revenue

= 97500/175000

= 0.56

4. how the project is going:

the schedule performance index (SPI) is 0.65 which is less than 1. this is to say that the project is doing better than planned revenue when we talk of revenue

Jaxon Markets currently has credit terms of net 30, an average collection period of 29 days, and average receivables of $211,410

Fudgin [204]

Answer: $50,301

Explanation:

If they offered the new terms of 2/10, net 30 then 45 percent of their customers would pay on day 10 with the remainder paying on average in 32 days.

The collection period would therefore be;

= 0.45 * 10 + 0.55 * 32

= 22.1 days

Currently the Average Daily sales are;

= Average Receivables/ Average collection period

= 211,410/29

= $7,290

With the new collection period their Average receivables would be;

= 7,290 * 22.1

= $‭161,109‬

Potential cash to be freed up = Current Receivables - New receivables

= 211,410 - 161,109

= $50,301
