Order Description
Study the Calculating Inventory Turnover portion of the chapter closely whereby the cost of goods sold divided by the average inventory equals the inventory
turnover.
Required
Compute two inventory turnover calculations as follows:1. Use the LIFO information in the previous assignment to first compute the average inventory and then to
compute the inventory turnover. 2. Use the FIFO information in the previous assignment to first compute the average inventory and then to compute the inventory
turnover.
Practice Exercise 8I: Depreciation Concept
Assume that MHS purchased equipment for $600000 cash on April 1 (the first day of its fiscal year). This equipment has an expected life of 10 years. The salvage value
is 10% of cost. No equipment was traded in on this purchase.
Required
1. Compute the straight-line depreciation for this purchase. 2. Compute the double-declining balance depreciation for this purchase.
Assume that MHS purchased two additional pieces of equipment on April 1 (the first day of its fiscal year) as follows:1. The laboratory equipment cost $300000 and
has an expected life of = years. The salvage value is 5% of cost. No equipment was traded in on this purchase. 2. The radiology equipment cost $800000 and has an
expected life of 7 years. The salvage value is 10% of cost. No equipment was traded in on this purchase.
Set up a purchase scenario of your own and compute the depreciation with and without salvage value.
The Metropolis Health System managers are also working on their budgets for next year. Each manager must annualize his or her staffing plan and thus must convert
staff net paid days worked to a factor. Each manager has the MHS worksheet which shows 9 holidays 7 sick days 15 vacation days and 3 education days equaling 34
paid days per year not worked.
The Laboratory is fully staffed 7 days per week and the 34 paid days per year not worked is applicable for the lab. The Medical Records department is also fully
staffed 7 days per week. However Medical Records is an outsourced department so the employee benefits are somewhat different. The Medical Records employees receive 9
holidays plus 21 personal leave days which can be used for any purpose.
Required
1. Compute net paid days worked for a full-time employee in the Laboratory and in Medical Records. 2. Convert net paid days worked to a factor for the Laboratory and
for Medical Records so these MHS managers can annualize their staffing plans.
Metropolis Health System (MHS) uses a basic work week of 40 hours throughout the system. Thus one full-time employee works 40 hours per week. MHS also uses a standard
24-hour scheduling system of three 8-hour shifts. The Director of Nursing needs to compute the staffing requirements to fill the Operating Room (OR) positions. Since
MHS is a trauma center the OR is staffed 24 hours a day 7 days a week. At present staffing is identical for all 7 days of the week although the Director of Nursing
is questioning the efficiency of this method.
The Operating Room department is staffed with two nursing supervisors on the day shift and one nursing supervisor apiece on the evening and night shifts. There are two
technicians on the day shift two technicians on the evening shift and one technician on the night shift. There are three RNs on the day shift two RNs on the evening
shift and one RN plus one LPN on the night shift. In addition there is one aide plus one clerical worker on the day shift only.
Required
1. Set up a staffing requirements worksheet using the format in Exhibit 94. 2. Compute the number of FTEs required to fill the Operating Room staffing positions.
