Competition Bikes management decide to retool and now manufacturing both Titanium and CarbonLite Frames bikes. Competition Bikes was using the Traditional based Costing (TBC) method, however the Activity Based Costing (ABC) may give more insight to management and helpful in analyzing the per unit costing of the different types of frames and pinpoint the area of improvement. Also the management wants to know the Breakeven point caused by the potential increase of fixed cost by $5,000 and increase in direct cost by 10%.…
An example of Logos in the documentary was at 31:01 when one of the women workers goes into the office of the Labor Board. With Logos the producer is trying to convince an audience by using logic or reason. The scene at 31:01 does just that because the scene is being held inside the office of the Labor Board. This worker that the documentary has been following goes in to talk about her severance pay that Sonya wont pay. Eventually the Labor Board tells her that Sonya said they were only willing to pay $860.…
There are a couple of concerns with Competition Bikes Inc., ProForma for year 9. The first concern is the amount of money that is allocated to research and development. For the previous three years, they have been all over the board with their budgets. The sixth year was $71,460, the seventh year was $98,280, and the eight year was $82,284. This is concerning that the budget has fluctuated so much. In the ninth year they have allocated $85,861. This budget line item should be analyzed so there is not so much variance in the budget between year to year.…

Calculate the contribution per CD unit Selling price to CD distributor $9.00 Less: Variable cost CD Package and disk (direct material/labor) $1.25/unit Songwriter’s royalties $0.35/unit Recording artists’ royalties $1.00/unit Total variable cost 2.60 Contribution per CD unit $6.40 2. Calculate the break-even volume in CD units and dollars Total Fixed Cost: Advertising and promotion $275,000 Studio Recordings, Inc. overhead 250,000 Total $525,000 Contribution per CD unit (from #1 above) $6.40 Contribution margin ($9.00-$2.60)/$9.00=.711 or 71.1% $525,000 Break-even volume in units = $6.40 = 82,031.25 units $525,000 Break-even volume in dollars =…

The director of this documentary has gave us many examples where one day we will have made the polar ice caps completely disappear. A scene in the documentary tells the viewers that we need to be more considerate of how we are affecting the world day by day. This is happening but at the same time people aren't aware of what's happening so they aren't changing their ways. If we were to do something about this problem to save the polar ice caps we could keep experiencing them for many more years. A form of logos would also be when the director talks about global warming and how there needs to be change. The director shows how it's affecting not only the planet but humans too. A scene in the documentary shows us how the director is concerned about the climate change and that it's logical to think that there has to be a solution to the…

The density of water is approximately one gram per cubic centimeter. It is dependent on its temperature, but the relation is not linear and is unimodal rather than monotonic (see table at left). When cooled from room temperature liquid water becomes increasingly dense, as with other substances, but at approximately 4 °C (39 °F), pure water reaches its maximum density. As it is cooled further, it expands to become less dense. This unusual negative thermal expansion is attributed to strong, orientation-dependent, intermolecular interactions and is also observed in molten silica.[22]…
To hold the position of President of the United States of America is a highly honored task. Every four years, someone new and possibly not seen before in politics has the shot at becoming the next President. It is very important for people to understand how this process works, and be inside the thoughts and decisions that a candidate must make to reach Capitol Hill. Thanks to the people at 3M, the presidential campaign can be simulated through the complex, yet easy to understand, board game, Mr. President: The Game of Campaign Politics. Recently in class, we ran the simulation/game. One game in particular, between Nathan Allen (R) and J.C. Reese (D) involved some strategy and number crunching. Which candidate/player used the better strategy?…
