At the end of the year, BizCon owed employees for one full month of salaries, but due to a cash shortfall, it promised to pay them the first week of next year. As the senior accountant, the Chief Financial Officer has asked you to prepare a memo to be sent to management notifying them of the delayed wage payments. Prepare the memo in a maximum 700 words including the following information to better outline the situation: • Explain how cash and accrual accounting differs for each of the events listed in the above scenario and describe the proper accrual accounting. • Assess how at the end of the year, BizCon reported a favorable net income, yet the company's management is concerned because the

Many of you will some day own your own business. One rapidly growing opportunity is no-frills workout centers. Such centers attract customers who want to take advantage of state-of-the-art fitness equipment but do not need the other amenities of full-service health clubs. One way to own your own fitness business is to buy a franchise. Snap Fitness is a Minnesota-based business that offers franchise opportunities. For a very low monthly fee ($27, without an annual contract) customers can access a Snap Fitness center 24 hours a day. The Snap Fitness website (www.snapfitness.com) indicates that start-up costs range from $60,000 to $184,000. This initial investment covers the

following pre-opening costs: franchise fee, grand opening marketing, leasehold improvements, utility/rent deposits, and training. Part 1 (Sections 1 - 4): Section 1: Suppose that Snap Fitness estimates that each location incurs $5,000 per month in general fixed operating expenses and $1,000 to lease equipment. Mixed costs are equal to $500 per/month (fixed) plus $1 per membership sale (variable). Total variable costs were not provided. A recent newspaper article describing no-frills fitness centers indicated that a Snap Fitness site might require only 320 members to break even. Members pay on a monthly basis. Using the information provided above, and your knowledge of CVP analysis, estimate the amount of variable costs. (When performing your analysis, assume that fixed costs include estimated monthly operating expenses, equipment lease and the fixed part of mixed costs.) Section 2: Using the information from part 1, section 1, what would monthly sales in members and dollars have to be to achieve a target net income of $15,000 for the month? Section 3: Provide several examples of variable costs and fixed costs for a fitness center. Discuss how a fitness center's cost structure, relevant range, margin of safety, cost behaviors, and CVP apply to the case study. How do you plan to use this in order to manage the business and plan for profitability? What type of internal accounting reports would you like to review in order to help you make informed decisions? Section 4: Go to a competitor's internet site and find information about purchasing their franchise. Summarize the pertinent information

required to make an informed investment decision. Which franchise do you believe is a better business opportunity? Explain your answer. Part 2: See CVP and Break Even Analysis project instructions for further details. ------------------------------------------------------------

ACC 561 Week 5 Team Cost Behavior Analysis (2 PPT)

For more course tutorials visit www.newtonhelp.com

This Tutorial contains 2 PPT of this Assignment Week Five Learning Team Assignment

Purpose of Assignment The case study focuses on break-even, margin of safety, and incremental analysis and allows students to experience working through a business scenario to apply these tools in managerial decision making. Students are required to make decisions and provide solutions based on their evaluation of financial data. Assignment Steps Resources: Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP), U.S. Securities and Exchange Committee (SEC) Tutorial help on Excel® and Word functions can be found on the Microsoft® Office website. There are also additional tutorials via the web offering support for Office products. Scenario: Shelley Jones has just been elected as president of the Circular Club of Auburn, Kansas, and she has been asked to suggest a new fundraising activity for the club. After a considerable amount of research, Shelley proposed the Circular Club sponsor a professional rodeo. In her presentation to the club, Shelley recommends the fundraiser become an annual activity with the following goals: · Continue to grow each year · Give back to the community · Provide the club a presence in the community Shelley's goal in the first year is to have an activity that would become an "annual community event" and would break even the first year and raise $5,000 the following year. In addition, based on the experience of other communities, Shelley believed a rodeo could grow in popularity so the club would eventually earn an average of $20,000 annually. A rodeo committee was formed. Shelley contacted the world's oldest and largest rodeo-sanctioning agency to apply to sponsor a professional rodeo. The sanctioning agency requires a rodeo to consist of the following five events: Bareback Riding, Bronco Riding, Steer Wrestling,

Bull Riding, and Calf Roping, Team Roping and Women's Barrels. Prize money in the amount of $3,000 would be paid to winners in each of the seven events. Members of the rodeo committee contracted with RJ Cattle Company, a livestock contractor on the rodeo circuit, to provide bucking stock, fencing, and chutes. Realizing costs associated with the rodeo were tremendous and ticket sales would probably not be sufficient to cover the costs, the rodeo committee sent letters to local businesses soliciting contributions in exchange for various sponsorships. Exhibiting Sponsorships are $1,000 to exhibit products or services, while Major Sponsorships are $600, and Chute Sponsorships are $500 to have the name of the sponsor's business on one of the six bucking chutes. For a contribution of $100, individual sponsors will be included in a Friends of Rodeo list found in the rodeo programs. A local youth group will be contacted to provide concessions to the public and divide the profits with the Circular Club. The Auburn Circular Club Pro Rodeo Roundup will be held on June 1, 2, and 3. The cost of an adult ticket is set at $8 in advance or $10 at the gate; the cost of a ticket for a child 12 or younger is set at $6 in advance or $8 at the gate. Tickets are not date-specific. Rather, one ticket will admit an individual to one performance of his or her choice-- Friday, Saturday, or Sunday. The rodeo committee is able to secure a location through the county supervisors' board at a nominal cost to the Circular Club. The arrangement allows for the use of the county fair grounds and arena for a one-week period. Several months prior to the rodeo, members of the rodeo committee were notified the bleachers at the arena would hold 2,500 patrons. On Saturday night, paid attendance was 1,663, but all seats were filled due to poor gate controls. Attendance was 898 Friday and 769 on Sunday. The following revenue and expense figures relate to the first year of the rodeo.

Receipts Contributions from sponsors $22,000 Receipts from ticket sales $28,971 Share of concession profits $1,513 Sale of programs $600 Total receipts $53,084 Expenses Livestock contractor $26,000 Prize money $21,000 Contestant hospitality $3,341* Sponsor signs for arena $1,900 Insurance $1,800 Ticket printing $1,050 Sanctioning fees $925 Entertainment $859 Judging fees $750 Port-a-potties $716 Rent $600 Hay for horses $538 Programs $500 Western hats to first 500 children $450 Hotel rooms for stock contractor $325 Utilities $300 Sand for arena $251 Miscellaneous fixed costs $105 Total expenses $61,410 Net loss $ (8,326) *The club contracted with a local caterer to provide a tent and food for the contestants. The cost of the food was contingent on the number of

contestants each evening. Information concerning the number of contestants and the costs incurred are as follows: Contestants Total Cost Friday 68 $998 Saturday 96 $1,243 Sunday 83 $1,100 $3,341 On Wednesday after the rodeo, members of the rodeo committee met to discuss and critique the rodeo. Jonathan Edmunds, CPA and President of the Circular Club, commented that the club did not lose money. Rather, Jonathan said, "The club made an investment in the rodeo." The rodeo committee has requested an analysis of the rodeos performance and evaluation of the CPA's review. Create a minimum 10-slide presentation, including detailed speaker notes, as the committee's consultation team and respond to the following: Âˇ What did Jonathan Edmunds mean when he said the club had made an investment in the rodeo? Is his comment consistent with Shelley's idea that the club should have a fundraiser that would: o Continue to get better each year. o Give back to the community. o Provide the club a presence in the community? Why or why not? Âˇ Shelley, Jonathan, and Adrian Stein, the Fundraising Chairperson, are beginning to make plans for next year's rodeo. Shelley believes by negotiating with local feed stores, inn- keepers, and other business owners, costs can be cut dramatically. Jonathan agrees. After carefully analyzing costs, Jonathan has estimated the fixed expenses can be pared to approximately $51,000. In addition, Jonathan estimates variable costs are 4% of total gross receipts. After talking with business owners who attended the rodeo, Adrian is confident the funds solicited from sponsors will increase. Adrian is comfortable in budgeting revenue from sponsors

at $25,600. The local youth group is unwilling to provide concessions to the audience unless they receive all of the profits. Not having the personnel to staff the concession booth, members of the Circular Club reluctantly agree to let the youth group have 100% of the profits from the concessions. In addition, members of the rodeo committee, recognizing the net income from programs was only $100, decide not to sell rodeo programs next year. o Compute the break-even point in dollars of ticket sales assuming Adrian and Jonathan are correct in their assumptions. 路 Shelley has just learned you are calculating the break-even point in dollars of ticket sales. She is still convinced the Club can make a profit using the assumptions above (second bullet point above). o Calculate the dollars of ticket sales needed to earn a target profit of $6,000. o Calculate the dollars of ticket sales needed to earn a target profit of $12,000. 路 Are the facilities at the fairgrounds adequate to handle crowds needed to generate ticket revenues calculated above (third bullet point above) to earn a $6,000 profit? Show calculations to support your answers. 路 A few members in the Circular Club do not want to continue with the annual rodeo. However, Shelley is insistent the Club must continue to conduct the rodeo as an annual fundraiser. Shelley argues she has spent hundreds of dollars on western boots, hats, and other items of clothing to wear to the rodeo. Are the expenses related to Shelley's purchases of rodeo clothing relevant costs? Why or why not? 路 Rather than hire the local catering company to cater the Contestant Hospitality Tent, members of the Circular Club are considering asking Shady's Bar-B-Q to cater the event in exchange for a $600 Major Sponsor spot. In addition, The Fun Shop, a local party supply business, will be asked to donate a tent to use for the event. The Fun Shop will

also be given a $600 Major Sponsor spot. Several members of the Club are opposed to this consideration, arguing that the two Major Sponsor spots will take away from the money to be earned through other sponsors. Adrian Stein has explained to the members the Major Sponsor signs for the arena cost only $48 each. In addition, there is more than enough room to display two additional sponsor signs. What would you encourage the Club to do concerning the Contestant Hospitality Tent? Would your answer be different if the arena were limited in the number of additional signs that could be displayed? What kind of cost would you consider in this situation that would not be found on a financial statement? · Assume you are elected chair of the rodeo committee for next year. What steps would you suggest the committee take to make the rodeo profitable? Show your work in Microsoft® Word or Excel®. Complete calculations/computations using Microsoft® Word or Excel®.

This Tutorial contains 2 Papers of this Assignment Week Six Individual Assignment Purpose of Assignment This comprehensive case requires students to evaluate a static budget and prepare flexible budgets to meet managerial needs. Students are required to calculate and analyze variances and discuss how variances are critical to managerial decision making. Assignment Steps Resources: Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP), U.S. Securities and Exchange Committee (SEC), Green Pastures Static Budget Income Statement Tutorial help on ExcelÂŽ and Word functions can be found on the MicrosoftÂŽ Office website. There are also additional tutorials via the web offering support for Office products. Scenario: Green Pastures is a 400-acre farm on the outskirts of the Kentucky Bluegrass, specializing in the boarding of broodmares and their foals. A recent economic downturn in the thoroughbred industry has led to a decline in breeding activities, and it has made the boarding business extremely competitive. To meet the competition, Green Pastures planned in 2017 to entertain clients, advertise more extensively, and absorb expenses formerly paid by clients such as veterinary and blacksmith fees.

The budget report for 2017 is presented as an attachment. As shown, the static income statement budget for the year is based on an expected 21,900 boarding days at $25 per mare. The variable expenses per mare per day were budgeted: feed $5, veterinary fees $3, blacksmith fees $0.25, and supplies $0.55. All other budgeted expenses were either semifixed or fixed. During the year, management decided not to replace a worker who quit in March, but it did issue a new advertising brochure and did more entertaining of clients. Develop a minimum 700-word examination of the financial statements and include the following: • Based on the static budget report: o What was the primary cause(s) of the loss in net income? o Did management do a good, average, or poor job of controlling expenses? o Were management's decisions to stay competitive sound? • Prepare a flexible budget report for the year. • Based on the flexible budget report: o What was the primary cause(s) of the loss in net income? o Did management do a good, average, or poor job of controlling expenses? o Were management's decisions to stay competitive sound? • What course of action do you recommend for the management of Green Pastures? ------------------------------------------------------------
