An error understated Power Corporation​'s December​ 31, 2018​, ending inventory by​ $54,000. What effect will this error have on total assets and net income for 2018​?

Answer:

•The total Assets will be under stated by $54,000 in 2018.

•The Net income will also be understated by $54,000 in 2018.

Explanation:

In computing income statement, beginning inventory is usually added to net purchases, then minus ending inventory to arrive at cost of goods sold.

The cost of goods sold can also be computed as ;

Cost of goods sold = Beginning inventory + Net purchases - Ending inventory. What the above means is that if ending inventory is understated, then the cost of goods sold will be overstated.

The gross profit is arrived at by deducting cost of goods sold from net sales. So, if cost of goods sold is overstated, then the gross profit will be understated by same amount, whereas an overstated gross profit , will also over state net profit.

Inventory is an asset. When an inventory is understated, then the overall asset would also be understated by same amount.

Firms face competing pressures in the marketplace-how to achieve lower costs through proven approaches to production, while looking at how to maximize their effectiveness in local markets. A firm's choice of strategy must reflect these pressures, and the firm knows that the dynamics of competition may require changes in strategy. Pressures for local responsiveness mean that a firm may not be able to realize the full benefits from economies of scale, learning effects, and location economies. Customization of products brings benefits, but it also limits the firm's ability to realize significant scale economies and location economies. Companies generally choose from four main strategic postures: a global standardization strategy, a localization strategy, a transnational strategy, or an international strategy. The appropriateness of each strategy varies given the competitive realities and the firm's core competences.
Read the case below and answer the questions that follow.
Your firm has been a leader in several lines of fast-moving consumer goods. The firm has been following a localization strategy. Your products have been distributed in a number of foreign markets and regions, and they are distinct enough in local markets to respond to national tastes and preferences. Competition, however, has become more intense, with many competitors using lower cost structures to undercut your prices and still satisfy your customers.
The firm must decide what kind of strategy it needs to follow to meet the demands of the local markets as well as the increased competitive pressures on cost.
a. leverage skills and products associated with a firm's core competencies from one country to another.
b. monitor and adapt to changing customer tastes in a large number of foreign markets.
c. compete effectively in more than one international market.

Case ScenarioOver the past four years, the LSS organization, a nonprofit organization headquartered in Minneapolis, MN, has become renowned nationally for its Camp Noah project. Following floods, tornadoes or other weather emergencies, children lose their daily routine, their schools and oftentimes their homes. Parents are often stressed and unavailable during emergencies, and children have few resources to help them understand their situation. In Camp Noah, volunteers with skills in child psychology and counseling meet in a two day support group environment with children in flood ravaged areas. They encourage the children to share their stories and develop important resiliency skills and learn how to cope emotionally with the disaster.Due to the need for such services, LSS has developed a training system that lets them partner with resource organizations located near flood or tornado areas. They have partnered with many local organizations around the U.S. to train, equip and empower volunteers to staff local camps attended by children during their summer vacation. LSS also provides pre-packaged Camp Noah supplies that range from workbooks, crayons and puppets to a quilt for each child.Recently, powerful rainstorms in southeastern France triggered flash flooding that displaced more than 1000 families, and left 200,000 people without electricity for more than two weeks. City officials in France called the LSS Director of Camp Noah Services, Chris Walker, and asked if she could provide training and equip 20 volunteers in southeastern France to deliver the Camp Noah curriculum to up to 500 children. The French officials have asked that a decision to proceed be made within 2 weeks, and that the training and they want the equipment be delivered 6 weeks after the decision is made. Chris Walker wants to help but isn’t sure how to start. Currently, Camp Noah supplies are all written in English, and the counselor training documents are only written in English as well. The floods occurred in an area of France that has few English speakers.You are a contract employee who has been engaged to help LSS because you speak French fluently and because you are an expert, experienced project manager with great interpersonal skills. Your job is to assist the director, Chris Walker, during project initiation. If the project is approved, you may be asked to lead the remainder of the project as well. You and Chris have been in meetings together all day discussing the opportunity for a French Camp Noah. You’ve been listening very carefully and asking dozens of questions about the potential effort. Now, you’re ready to get started and put your considerable project management skills and knowledge to work.Questions based on above scenario and answer need to be 1/2 page long:1. Is this (or will this be) a project or operations? Justify your choice.2. What process group is this project currently in? How do you know?3. As an experienced project manager, you are aware that analyzing the environment in which a project operates is critically important. Select two (2) OPA and two (2) EEF that you believe are important to understand for this project. Apply these to the case scenario and justify why the four items you selected are important. 4. Once the decision is made to proceed with the project, Chris Walker, the director, will need to select a project manager. You know that LSS is a strong-matrix org. What does this mean in terms of how the project will be conducted and the role of the project manager? (5. You and Chris Walker, the director, will work on trying to define what project success will look like as you define the project objectives. What should you keep in mind about the process of writing objectives? Why are good statements of project objectives important to project success?

Markup
Markdown
Odd-even pricing
Prestige pricing
Price lining
Demand backward pricing

There is no shortage of pricing approaches, and as customers, we are exposed to all of them at some time or another in our purchasing processes.
Choose one of the pricing approaches and discuss the product, the pricing approach, and why you think it is the most appropriate approach for that particular product given your consumer characteristics. Be sure you understand the definition of your approach before tackling this topic.
Many of you will be tempted to use promotional pricing since it is the easiest to demonstrate. So promotional pricing is not "for sale" (pun intended). Pick one of the other approaches for this topic.
