Integrating the different projects To give greater continuity between the projects, please add the following paragraph at the very beginning of Project 3: At IPS you spend the first few years analyzing the industry, comparing your firm’s financial health to other firms in the industry and making sure that the financial statements are accurate. After a while you start exploring the other areas of accounting and finance work in the firm. You realize that accounting information is not only needed by external stakeholders for evaluating the firm, but also by management to judge the efficiency and optimality of operations. Your work expands to include Managerial Accounting. “Congratulations!” You have been promoted to the CFO position at IPS! You have hardly settled into your new office when the CEO asks you to prepare a financial report on the proposed Android01, as well as the MiniX and MiniY. $2M has already been spent on market research, and IPS wishes to determine if the new Android01 component be produced in a way that will yield a profit. “As you know,” the CEO says, “there are different ways of allocating fixed overhead costs and our choice will affect the cost-per-unit of Android01.” He continues, “I hope you can help us understand the different choices and how they’ll impact our business.” Your prior manufacturing experience makes you think that examining an alternative method of assigning costs would also be prudent since Android01 shares component assembly with a related product — Processor01. In your conversation with the IPS production manager, he alludes to the fact that a 30 percent markup is standard at IPS. While you’re at it, you look for information on the variable costs per unit for different levels of production so you can provide a recommendation on what level of output will maximize profit. Thinking you’ve got everything covered, you decide to take a break. Just as your lunch arrives, you get a call from your CEO: “I almost forgot to ask you about the Mini line!” The CEO continues, “The new MiniY product has been so successful that we would like to increase production. We will need a budget projection. Also, the shared production costs for the Mini line have affected the value of our premiere product, the MiniX — I would like you to provide me with a profit or loss figure for the MiniX as well. As you scramble to take notes, she continues: “I’ll need a report summarizing your findings and projections.” This project will require you to analyze operations costs for the organization using managerial finance techniques. You will next determine the level of production and prices that maximize the firm’s profit. Finally, you will prepare a financial budget for the firm and present your recommendations.

Nonfamily living and the erosion of traditional family orientations among young adults. American Sociological Review, 51 (4), 541-554. The authors, researchers at the Rand Corporation and Brown University, use data from the National Longitudinal Surveys of Young Women and Young Men to test their hypothesis that nonfamily living by young adults alters their attitudes, values, plans, and expectations, moving them away from their belief in traditional sex roles. They find their hypothesis strongly supported in young females, while the effects were fewer in studies of young males. Increasing the time away from parents before marrying increased individualism, self-sufficiency, and changes in attitudes about families. In contrast, an earlier study by Williams cited below shows no significant gender differences in sex role attitudes as a result of nonfamily living

Over the past several decades, communication media have evolved significantly. In addition to communicating messages through books, newspapers, and magazines, we now have the ability to communicate through blogs, websites, and social media like Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube. Now, more than ever, the average person is capable of creating and distributing professional-looking visual communication. This supports what your textbook identifies as perhaps the most significant change; these “new technologies are forcing journalists, advertisers, PR professionals, and entertainment executives to relinquish their role as ‘gatekeepers’ of information.” Taking a look at one of the professions listed in this quote, or even your own profession, reflect on how the role of “gatekeeper” is being redefined, given these new technologies. What are the benefits and challenges associated with this change, both from a business perspective and a social perspective? Are there any ethical concerns associated with this shift? This journal entry should allow you to thoroughly reflect upon what you have learned thus far in class, and provides you an opportunity to relate this learning to your professional and/or personal experiences. Your journal entry may be written in a more informal style, with a focus on clearly conveying your ideas. APA formatting elements are not required for your journal entry, but you are expected to adhere to conventional rules of grammar, sentence structure, spelling, and punctuation.
