    Shaving 5% off the estimated direct labor hours in the base for the predetermined overhead rate will falsely produce a high overhead rate, which will result in over applied overhead. Thus, inflating the cost of goods sold until year end, and overstating the inventories. The over applied overhead will be recognized at year end by closing it to cost of goods sold. The adjustment for the over applied overhead will result in a big boost in net operating income at year end.…

    Still, the safety of these estimates can be compared with actual field measurements upon the return of the evacuees. However, the high degree of compliance with the stipulated limit in all the towns suggest that additional protection measures would be unnecessary, especially for the indoor residents. Overall, the relationship between the external ambient and individual doses was critical to predicting the annual doses per evacuee upon returning home to either of the areas under investigation. Generally, the doses for external exposure were much higher than those for internal exposure. Perhaps, the time of exposure in outdoor settings might have provided more realistic predictions of individual dose…

    Glaser Health Products of Ranier Falls, Georgia needs assistance in evaluating and classifying costs in order to implement an activity-based costing system. As stated in the case, these costs will be used for planning and control decisions rather than inventory valuation. The activity-based costing system will provide better allocation of Glaser’s overhead costs rather than a system to look at the cost drivers or the activities that their overhead costs comprise. Glaser’s general structure of an activity-based costing model should consist of cost objects, activities, consumption of resources, and cost.…

    “Validity is the extent to which a test measures what we actually wish to measure” (Cooper and Schindler, 2014, p.257). “Reliability has to do with the accuracy and precision of a measurement procedure” (Cooper and Schindler, 2014, p. 257). Validity is more critical to measurement than reliability because without validity, reliability is meaningless. For example, a bathroom scale may give a weight each time a person weighs themselves, which proves the scale is reliable in giving feedback. If the scale displays an incorrect weight each time then it is not a valid weight and a person cannot accurately measure themselves to know if a goal is being met or not. Validity and reliability can also be thought of in terms of a person and their work. A person may show up to work on time and complete all tasks that are required everyday, which proves they are reliable, however if they tasks are not completed correctly then there is no validity to work and it must be redone. Finally, validity…
