Impacts of Expenses

Tim’s Coffee Shop is a great business that would seem to benefit from large business moving to the area. Looking at the income statement Tim’s business actually earned a decent profit in 2008. With the new surrounding business to the area this will bring an increase in business volume for the coffee shop along with plenty of new customers. This also could have some negative effects on the business with the increase of some on the expenses that naturally come along with more business volume.

The expenses that probably would be affected the most are supplies, salary, and tax. The business volume would increase which mean more customers. This also means you would need to hire more employees to meet the demand of having more business. So this would affect the salary expense and have a significant increase on it. The increase in profit and sales also means an increase on taxes paid. The business also has to make sure they supply all of the new customers because of the companies being built around them. The supplies will probably have the biggest impact as far as increases in expenses.

The other expenses should either remain the same or decrease. The insurance and rent should stay the same no matter what. The increase in profit and business volume should have no effect on these revenues. The interest should decrease on the loans. As time goes by the money you owe on a loan gets smaller so therefore the interest is actually lower each year until the loan is paid off.

    1.) Break-even ticket sales increased from 4533 in 2003, to 4998 in 2004 and 7491 in 2006. Break-even point in Sales Dollars has changed from $7,285 in 2003, to $7,617 in 2004 and $11,634 in 2006. (Table 1) The margin of safety has changed from $1,298 in 2003, to $485 in 2004, and a loss of $923 in 2006. (Table 2) There is a decrease from 2003 to 2006. Fixed cost per month attributed to stores relocation and subsequent renovations caused a decrease from 2003 to 2006. Other factors contributing to the 2003-2006 decrease are as follows: • 1% increase in Cost of Goods Sold (COGS) totaling $81,000 • Decrease in sales of $481,000 • Increase in salaries totaling $60,000 • Increase in miscellaneous expenses of $40,000. (Table 3) 2.) If prices were reduced by 10 percent, Hallstead’s total income would decrease to $1,111. This would change the break-even point for ticket sales to 9,637, and significantly change the overall sales figure to $13,473 (Table 4). 3.) Gretchen’s idea would effectively eliminate sales commissions. This would reduce sales volume by 1,143. This would decrease ticket sales to 8,494 and compromise the break-even. Sales dollars would reduce by $1,598 to $11,875 (Table 4). 4.) Michaela’s suggestion to increase advertising by $200,000 is sound: The increase accounts for 2% of sales and 4% of 2006 sales. Both figures are comparatively low for a retail business. This increase would change the break-even point from 7,491 to 7,790 ticket sales (Table 5). 5.) If fixed costs remained static from 2006 to 2007, average sales ticket would have to increase from $1,553 to $1,690 in order to break-even. (Table 6). List of recommendations for Hallstead Jewelers are as follows: Evaluate the number of sales staff needed and consider reducing the number of FTE’s and/or PTE’s. When reducing staff and/or operating, make sure that the best sales associates are receiving the number of hours they desire and then allocating the remaining…

    I am writing to you today to talk about a hot button issue right now, and that issue is wrongful conviction. It has been 25 years since the first DNA test exonerated a convict, and back in 2009 there had been 286 people freed by DNA testing. There are a few reasons that I am writing to you about this, for starters I would like to inform you of the many reasons that wrongful convictions occur. There are people out there that are taking steps to either free the wrongfully convicted or are making sure that wrongful convictions don’t happen in the first place, I would like to inform you of things you can do to prevent wrongful convictions. Also, most of the people that are exonerated are not compensated for their years of incarceration, and this is unacceptable.…

    If Microsoft forecasted revenue increase by 20 percent’s for the upcoming year, several parts of the annual report will be affected by the 20% increase forecast. First of all, the income statements will alter their revenues from 16,195 million dollars to 19,434 million dollars. Revenue is not the only thing that changes since there are other expenses that need to be changed. For example in the income statement, the operating expenses will not have an adjustment, and that includes; research and development, sales and marketing, and general and administrative these accounts will stay constant because only the revenues increase by 20 percent. However, if revenue increases 20 percent, the cost of revenues also increases by 20 percent due to the fact that cost of revenue is the cost to make the revenue. The cost of revenue is from $3,139 million dollars to $3,767 million dollars. The total operating expenses will increase $628 million dollars, but in the end, the net income will increase also because revenue is higher than what can be covered to the extra cost of revenue.…
