Answer and Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

Total material cost variance

= (Standard quantity × standard price) - (actual quantity × actual price)

= (4,000 tiles × 2 pounds of material × $4) - (8,800 pounds × $35,640 ÷ 8,800 pounds)

= (8,000 pounds × $4) - ($8,800 pounds × $4.05)

= $3,640 unfavorable

For material price variance

= Actual Quantity × (Standard Price - Actual Price)

= 8,800 × ($4 - $4.05)

= $440 unfavorable

For material quantity variance

= Standard Price × (Standard Quantity - Actual Quantity)

= $4 × (8,000 pounds - 8,800 pounds)

= $3,200 unfavorable

The favorable variance is that in which the standard cost is more than the actual cost and the inverse goes to unfavorable variance

Valentin [98]

Answer:

$2,730,000

Explanation:

The opening cash balance is netted off the cash flows from all activities namely; Operating, investing and financing activities to get the closing cash balance.

The operating activities includes elements such as net income, depreciation and amortization, changes in working capital etc.

Given;

Net income = $2,500,000

Depreciation = $160,000

accounts receivable decrease = $350,000 (inflow of cash)

accounts payable decrease =  $280,000 (outflow of cash)

net cash provided by operating activities using the indirect approach

= $2,500,000 + $160,000 + $350,000 - $280,000

= $2,730,000

At the start of the case, Cisco’s information systems are failing, yet no one steps forward to lead the effort to replace them.
SpyIntel [72]

Answer:

When Peter Solvik joined Cisco in January 1993 as the company's CIO, Cisco was a $500 million company running a UNIX-based software package to support its core transaction processing, including financial, manufacturing, and order entry systems. At that time, Cisco was experiencing significant growth. However, the application didn't provide the degree of redundancy, reliability, and maintainability that Cisco needed to meet the business requirements anymore. The current systems may be good for $300 million companies, but they were not suitable for a $1 billion dollar company. Solvik let each functional area make its own decision regarding the application and timing of its move, but all functional areas were required to use common architecture and databases. However, in the following years, the functional area were facing dilemma. Anything Cisco did would just run over the legacy systems. It turned into an effort to constantly band-aid the existing systems. So the systems replacement difficulties of functional areas perpetuated the deterioration of Cisco's legacy environment. System outages became routines. Finally, in January of 1994, Cisco's legacy environment failed. As a result, the company was largely shut down for two days.

Why were no managers eager to take on this project?  

Because if Cisco wanted to replace the existing legacy systems, the system in each functional areas had to make change accordingly. Take manufacturing for example, if manufacturing wanted to spend $5 or $6 million dollars to buy a package and by the way it will take a year or more to get it. It was too much to justify. Therefore, none of managers was going to throw out the legacies and do something big. In a word, because implementation a new system would cost a lot of money and take long time to be realized, no one was individually going to go out and buy a package.
