Bias may be occurring. Bias is basically thinking someone is better than another person due to one factor, without even knowing the person. In this instance, the store manager is only hiring shift supervisors who have a degree, rather than an experienced cashier without a degree. The bias here is dependent on the employee's educational history. The manager may think that even though the cashiers are great, they still may not have the qualifications that one would pick up in college.
Answer:
Option (D) is correct.
Explanation:
Given that,
Began July with a finished-goods inventory = $48,000
Finished-goods inventory at the end of July = $56,000
Cost of goods sold during the month = $125,000
Cost of goods manufactured during July:
= Ending finished goods inventory + Cost of goods sold - Beginning finished goods inventory
= $56,000 + $125,000 - $48,000
= $133,000
Answer:
False
Explanation:
The GAAP established that when the benefits of obtaining accounting information are lower than the costs of providing that information, the information should not be provided.
For example, sometimes there are very small differences in certain accounts that don't allow a balance sheet to be balanced. If the accounting error is very small, e.g. just a few hundred dollars, then it is not reasonable to have a whole audit team check all the financial statements again to determine what caused the error. An adjusting entry could be made to close the account balances.
Imagine you are an auditor that must check the physical inventory of a factory and some boxes containing supplies are misplaced. It might take you a whole day to count again all the supplies and materials, but is it worth it? If the supplies were really expensive, probably yes, but if they were cheap components, then probably no.
Answer:
The production exhibit both scope economics and scale economics. They are not mutually exclusive.
Explanation:
Looking at the scenario critically, we will clearly see the tendency of a scope economics. Scope economics basically hinges on getting a competitive advantage, essentially because of producing in large quantities and numbers. Riverside Ranger logo T-shirts exhibits this as it produce its products in large numbers, producing 1000 pieces of a particular design in 1 hour.
In same breath, we also have the scale economics exhibited by the organization. Taking a deeper look at the cost representation, we will see that the average cost tend to reduce as the production increases. Thus, an economic of scale is achieved here by leveraging on the mass and swift production style of Riverside Rangers logo T-shirts.
