Assignment Exercise 15–1: Budgeting
Select an organization: either from the Case Studies in Chapters 27–28 or from one of the Mini-Case Studies in Chapters 29–31.
Required
1. Using the organization selected, create a budget for the next fiscal year. Set out the details of all assumptions you needed in order to build this budget.
2. Use the “Checklist for Building a Budget” (Exhibit 15–2) and critique your own budget.
Assignment Exercise 15–2: Budgeting
Find an existing budget from a published source. Detail should be extensive enough to present a challenge.
1. Using the existing budget, create a new budget for the next fiscal year. Set out the details of all the assumptions you needed in order to build this budget.
2. Use the “Checklist for Building a Budget” (Exhibit 15–2) and critique your own effort.
3. Use the “Checklist for Reviewing a Budget” (Exhibit 15–3) and critique the existing budget.
Assignment Exercise 15–3: Transactions Outside the Operating Budget
Review Figure 15–2 and the accompanying text.
Metropolis Health System (MHS) has received a wellness grant from the charitable arm of an area electronics company. The grant will run for 24 months, beginning at the first of the next fiscal year. Two therapists and two registered nurses will each be spending half of their time working on the wellness grant. All four individuals are full-time employees of MHS. The electronics company has only recently begun to operate the charitable organization that awarded the grant. While they have gained all the legal approvals necessary, they have not yet provided the manuals and instructions for grant transactions that MHS usually receives when grants are awarded. Consequently, guidance about separate accounting is not yet forthcoming from the grantor.
Assignment Exercise 15–4: Identified Versus Allocated Costs in Budgeting
- The function I chose from the organizational chart is Finance.
- Make up your own organization chart for other employee levels within the function you have chosen.
- Now make up another chart that indicates the operating budget costs you think would be mostly identifiable for the department or unit or division you have chosen and what other operating budget costs you think would be mostly allocated to it.
Assignment Exercise 16–1: Capital Expenditure Proposals
Ted Jones, the Surgery Unit Director, is about to choose his strategy for creating a capital expenditure funding proposal for the coming year. Ted’s unit needs more room. The Surgery Unit is running at over 90% capacity. In addition, a prominent cardiology surgeon on staff at the hospital wants to create a new cardiac surgery program that would require extensive funding for more space and for new state-of-the-art equipment. The surgeon has been campaigning with the hospital board members.

Assignment Exercise 4–2: Revenue Sources and Grouping Revenue The Metropolis Health System has revenue sources from operations, donations, and interest income. The revenue from operations is primarily received for services. MHS groups its rev-enue first by cost center. Within each cost center the services revenue is then grouped by payer. Required 1. Set up a worksheet with individual columns across the top for six revenue sources (pay-ers): Medicare, Medicaid, Other Public Programs, Patients, Commercial Insurance, and Managed Care Contracts. 2. Certain situations concerning the Intensive Care Unit and the Laboratory are described below. Set up six vertical line items on your worksheet, numbered (1) through (6). Six situa-tions are described below. For each of the six situations, indicate its number (1 through 6) and enter the appropriate cost center (either Intensive Care Unit or Laboratory). Then place an X in the column(s) that represents the correct revenue source(s) for the item. The six situations are as follows: (1) ICU stay billed to employee’s insurance program. (2) Lab test paid for by an individual. (3) Pathology work performed for the state. (4) ICU stay billed to member’s health plan. (5) ICU stay billed for Medicare beneficiary. (6) Series of allergy tests run for eligible Medicaid beneficiary.
Assignment Exercise 5–1: Grouping Expenses by Cost Center The Metropolis Health System’s Rehabilitation and Wellness Center offers outpatient therapy and return-to-work services plus cardiac and pulmonary rehabilitation to get people back to a normal way of living. The Rehabilitation and Wellness Center expenses include the following: • Nursing Salaries • Physical Therapist Supplies • Physical Therapist Salaries • Occupational Therapist Supplies • Occupational Therapist Salaries • Cardiac Rehab Supplies • Cardiac Rehab Salaries • Pulmonary Rehab Supplies • Pulmonary Rehab Salaries • Training Supplies • Patient Education Coordinator Salary • Clerical Office Supplies • Nursing Supplies • Employee Education Required 1. Decide how many cost centers should be used for the above expenses at the Center. 2. Set up a worksheet with individual columns across the top for the cost centers you have chosen. 3. For each of the expenses listed above, indicate to which of your cost centers it should be assigned.
Assignment Exercise 5–2 Required Find a listing of expenses by diagnosis or by procedure. The source of the list can be internal (within a health care facility of some type) or external (such as a published article, report, or survey). Comment upon whether you believe the expense grouping used is appropriate. Would you have grouped the expenses in another way?

Assignment Exercise 8–1: FIFO and LIFO Inventory
Use the format in Exhibit 8–1 to compute the ending FIFO inventory and the cost of goods sold, assuming $90,000 in sales; beginning inventory 500 units @ $50; purchases of 400 units @ $50; 100 units @ $65; 400 units @ $85.
Also compute the cost of goods sold percentage of sales.
Comment on the difference in outcomes.

Assignment Exercise 8–3: Depreciation Concept
The laboratory equipment cost $300,000 and has an expected life of 5 years. The salvage value is 5% of cost. No equipment was traded in on this purchase.
Compute the straight-line depreciation.
Assignment Exercise 8–4: Depreciation
Set up a purchase scenario of your own and compute the depreciation with and without salvage value.
The neonatal unit equipment cost $60,000, and has an expected life of 5 years, no salvage. Compute the straight line depreciation.
Assignment Exercise 8–5: Depreciation Computation: Units-of-Service
Using the format in Table 8–A-5, compute units of service depreciation using the following assumptions:
Assignment Exercise 9–1: FTEs to Annualize Staffing
The Metropolis Health System managers are also working on their budgets for next year. Each manager must annualize his or her staffing plan, and thus must convert staff net paid days worked to a factor. Each manager has the MHS worksheet, which shows 9 holidays, 7 sick days, 15 vacation days, and 3 education days, equaling 34 paid days per year not worked.
Assignment Exercise 9–2: FTEs to Fill a Position
Metropolis Health System (MHS) uses a basic work week of 40 hours throughout the system. Thus, one full-time employee works 40 hours per week. MHS also uses a standard 24-hour scheduling system of three 8-hour shifts. The Director of Nursing needs to compute the staffing requirements to fill the Operating Room (OR) positions. Since MHS is a trauma center, the OR is staffed 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. At present, staffing is identical for all 7 days of the week, although the Director of Nursing is questioning the efficiency of this method.
