21.1 Contemporary Wood Furniture Case Study 21-1, p. 768
Charles Royston was checking the year-end balances for his wood furniture manufacturing and retail
business and was concerned about the numbers. From what he remembered, his debts and accounts
receivable were higher than the previous year. Rather than get worked up over nothing, he
decided he would gather the information and make a comparison. For December 31, 2011, the business
had current assets of: $1,844 cash, $11,807 accounts receivable, and $9,628 inventory. Plant
and equipment totaled $158,700. Current liabilities were: accounts payable $13,446; wages payable
$650; and property and taxes payable $4,124. Long-term debt totaled $92,800 and owner’s equity
$70,959. By comparison, for December 31, 2010, the business had current assets of: $3,278 cash;
$6,954 accounts receivable; $17,417 inventory. Plant and equipment totaled $144,500. Current liabilities
were: accounts payable $9,250; wages payable $1,110; property and taxes payable $3,650.
Long-term debt totaled $75,800; and owner’s equity $82,339.

1. Construct a comparative balance sheet for Contemporary Wood Furniture for year-end 2010
and 2011, including a vertical and horizontal analysis of the comparative balance sheet.
Express percents to the nearest tenth of a percent.

2. Calculate the current ratio and the total debt to total assets ratio for 2010 and 2011.

3. Overall, what does your analysis mean? Is Charles correct to be concerned about these numbers? Explain.

8-3 The Artist’s Palette
Question One
The team obtained the trade discount for each supplier and used it to determine the Net List Price for each supplier.  The List Price less the trade discount provided the Net List Price.  We then compared the two prices to determine that Parma would save $3.87 if they purchase from supplier two.  The team did not experience issues completing this question.
Question Two
The team did not have any issues with this question. The team was able to easily calculate the net decimal equivalent by first finding the complement of each of the discount rates for each supplier (20/10/5 and 18/12/7). To do this the team subtracts each of them from 100% (i.e. 100-.20=.80). After this we multiplied each of the complement to find the net decimal equivalent (i.e. .80*.90*.95=.684).
Question Three
After finding the net decimal equivalent in question two, the team was able to multiply that number by the Parama minimum supply purchase price of 300 by (1-the net decimal equivalent) to find the trade discount. The team had to place a formula under the nde cell so the template would calculate the correct trade discount. There were no further issues with this problem.




Question Four
A student purchased $250 in art supplies with terms 2/10, n/30.  If the student payment makes payment on September 26th he is entitled to two percent discount because payment is made with ten days of purchase we calculated a discount by multiplying the amount due by the .02, the result is $5. Then we subtracted $5.00 from $250 and the amount owed is $245.  The team did not experience any issues with this question.
Question Five
A purchase made on September 16th with terms of 2/10 EOM expires October 11th.  A purchase made on September 26th with terms of 2/10 EOM expires November 11th because purchases made after on or after the 26th have until the following month to allow time to receive invoices.  We would prefer 2/10 EOM to allow the most time to pay the invoice and still receive the discount.  The team did not experience any issues with this scenario.
9-1 Acupuncture, Tea, and Rice-Filled Heating Pads
Question One
The team was able to find the markup percentage by first finding the amount of the mark up, which was 0.70. After that the team had to divide that number by the actual cost of the tea which was 2.80, and then multiply that number by 100 to find the markup percent. No issues with the problem.
Question Two
The markup percentage for the small, medium, and large rice filled pads was found by first determining the markup using the information provided. The cost for

5-2 Artist’s Performance Royalties
Question One
The first question was a little unclear as to whether Ziam would be splitting his royalties with a performer and publisher, absent this information a formula was provided for both.  This clarification was the only barrier to providing the answer.
Questions Two- Four
The team did not have any issues answering the questions, the case study provided more than enough information to determine the known factors.  The check formulas provided were very helpful and prove to be quite useful tools.  The formulas were easy to follow and the tools provided were essential to solving the equations.

6-2 Customer Relationship Management
Question One
There were not any issues with the answer to question one. The team was able to find the total number of subscribers by adding all of the customer groups together (i.e. PS+AD+TC+ISP=TOT). After finding the total the team was able to then find what the percentage of each of the four customer groups were. This was completed by dividing the number of subscribers within each group by the overall number of customers (i.e. PS/TOT, AD/TOT, TC/TOT and ISP/TOT).

Sampling Process and Data Analysis
Surveys are a beneficial when receiving feedback on how a business is doing. When customers complete surveys it helps to identify areas of strength and also areas of growth. Currently, Harmony Grill is experiencing a decline in customers due to customer service issues. Providing customers with the opportunity to give feedback empowers them by making their thoughts heard and helps the management by using the following consumer feedback to identify customer service issues as the restaurant would like to identify key areas which it could make changes to provide better training to improve customer service for all patrons and create a better dining experience.



A sample size consists of the amount of people who will be surveyed. Initially, Harmony Grill decided to use the sample process of 200 people, which consisted of 100 patrons during lunch hours, and 100 during the dinner hours. However, after careful consideration, Team A made the decision to lower the sample size in an effort to receive data based on information retrieved in a short amount of time, as the survey was administered to family and friends of team members via the internet.
How Survey was Administered
There are many ways to administer a survey some ways are interviews, phone surveys, online, etc. After reviewing each way team “A” decided to use an online survey where a web link “http://hedelstein.polldaddy.com/s/qnt-561-lt-assignment-harmony-grill” isavailable on the customer’s receipt and responses are anonymous. Along with the link an incentive was also stated on the receipt that when the patron completes the survey, and bring in the receipt for an
