Management Assignment Unit VIII. (I will check for plagiarism and other cheating sites)
This assignment consists of reading the following scenario and composing a paper regarding what managers must do to lead change and achieve their goals through planning and prioritization.
This Assignment will be used to assess the following Course Outcomes:
MT140-3: Discuss the steps to manage change.
PC-2.1: Achieve goals through planning and prioritization.
You are owner and executive level manager of a food and beverage shop which has eight locations. Your strategic goal is to expand this business over the next 5 years. Your business has a great problem: An increase in the number of customers! However, employees have been consistently reporting that they are overwhelmed by the volume of customers. Additionally, your frontline and middle level managers have noticed that the number of reported errors in customer orders has increased. You have decided to adopt an electronic customer ordering system that will allow customers to input their own orders at touch-screen computer kiosks located within each store. Employees will focus on preparing each order as it appears on a screen in the food preparation area. This will address the issue of employees being overwhelmed by the increased pace of the workplace while also improving accuracy and speed in fulfilling customers’ orders.
You have decided to first communicate your decision to the eight location managers who report to you in an email communication. You are aware of how important it is to exhibit professionalism and business etiquette in constructing this email message to the managers. It is important for you to gain the support of the managers since they will have key roles in leading this change at the shop level. The main focus of this message is to describe the intended implementation and achieve your goals with planning and prioritization, following each of the eight steps in the process for leading change.
Following the eight steps to leading change (which start with establishing a sense of urgency and end with anchoring new approaches in the culture, as well as the other required reading from the text, compose an email communication (type it in a Word document). You will need to bold the steps.(Mandatory) This email will be from you to the location managers describing what they must be aware of and do to manage this change in technology to automated customer service. After you have completed the email message to the location managers (in a Word document), address the following questions in the remainder of your paper:
Is email an effective channel to send this message? Why or why not? What are potential communication pitfalls in this scenario, and how can they be avoided?
In summary: In a Word document, compose an email message from you to the location managers (shop managers) explaining the steps necessary to manage this new technology change, and addressing the questions above concerning this communication channel and its potential pitfalls. Note: The main portion of your paper consists of the message about the change, written from the perspective of you to the managers and following the protocol laid out in the eight steps to leading change from your text. After you have composed the message to the managers, address the other parts of the assignment regarding the effectiveness of email as a channel to communicate this message and potential communication pitfalls in this scenario.

Revenue Recognition
Introduction and Purpose of Assignment
The timing of recognizing revenue can affect a company’s income especially at the end or beginning of a period, therefore it is important to properly record revenue.
Objectives
Upon completion of this assignment you should be able to determine the proper timing of revenue recognition and the possibilities for its abuse. (2.2)
Theory and Context
Because revenue often has the greatest effect on the income statement, properly recognizing revenue plays a pivotal role in determining a company’s profitability. Determining when revenue can be recognized is carefully governed by FASB and therefore accountants must pay special attention to those guidelines.
Instructions
- Review the concept of revenue recognition.
- Read the Ethical Dilemma regarding Precision Parts Corporation:
The Precision Parts Corporation manufactures automobile parts. The company has reported a profit every year since the company’s inception in 1980. Management prides itself on this accomplishment and believes one important contributing factor is the company’s incentive plan that rewards top management a bonus equal to a percentage of operating income if the operating income goal for the year is achieved. However, 2016 has been a tough year, and prospects for attaining the income goal for the year are bleak. Tony Smith, the company’s chief financial officer, has determined a way to increase December sales by an amount sufficient to boost operating income over the goal for the year and earn bonuses for all top management. A reputable customer ordered $120,000 of parts to be shipped on January 15, 2017. Tony told the rest of top management “I know we can get that order ready by December 31 even though it will require some production line overtime. We can then just leave the order on the loading dock until shipment. I see nothing wrong with recognizing the sale in 2016, since the parts will have been manufactured and we do have a firm order from a reputable customer.” The company’s normal procedure is to ship goods f.o.b. destination and to recognize sales revenue when the customer receives the parts.

- What are the possible negative ramifications of this plan?
- Is it ethical to recognize the revenue early in this plan? Why or why not?
- Use biblical principles to support your position.
Must be in APA format with 200-300 words
