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 8–2: Inventory Turnover
Use the LIFO information in the previous assignment to first compute the average inventory and then to compute the inventory turnover.
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.

Assignment Exercise 17–1: Variance Analysis
Greenview Hospital operated at 120% of normal capacity in two of its departments during the year. It operated 120% times 20,000 normal capacity direct labor nursing hours in routine services and it operated 120% times 20,000 normal capacity equipment hours in the laboratory. The lab allocates overhead
1. Set up a worksheet for applied overhead costs and volume variance with a column for Routine Services Nursing and a second column for Laboratory.
Set up a worksheet for actual overhead costs and budget variance with a column for Routine Services Nursing and a second column for Laboratory
2. Set up a worksheet for volume variance and budget variance totaling net variance with a column for Routine Services Nursing and a second column for Laboratory.
Assignment Exercise 17–2: Three-Level Revenue Forecast
Assumptions: for the base level (most likely) revenue forecast, assume $200 per procedure times 4 procedures per day times 5 days’ equals 20 procedures per week times 50 weeks per year equals 1,000 potential procedures per year.
For the best case revenue forecast, assume an increase in volume of one procedure per day average, for an annual increase of 250 procedures (5 days per week times 50 weeks equals 250). (The best case is if the practice gains a particular managed care contract.)
For the worst case revenue forecast, assume a decrease in volume of 2 procedures per day average, for an annual decrease of 500 procedures. (The worst case is if the practice loses a major payer.)
Audiologists were designated as “eligible for physician and other prescriber incentives” as discussed elsewhere. Thus the new service line was a logical move.
Assignment Exercise 17–3: Target Operating Income
Acme Medical Supply Company desires a target operating income amount of $100,000, with assumption inputs as follows:
• • Desired (target) operating income amount = $100,000
• • Unit price for sales = $80
• • Variable cost per unit = $60
• • Total fixed cost = $60,000
Compute the required revenue to achieve the target operating income and compute a contribution income statement to prove the totals.
Assignment Exercise 18–1: Estimate of Loss
You are the practice manager for a four-physician office. You arrive on Monday morning to find the entire office suite flooded from overhead sprinklers that malfunctioned over the weekend. Water stands ankle-deep everywhere. The computers are fried and the contents of all the filing cabinets are soaked. Your own office, where most of the records were stored, has the worst damage.
Assignment Exercise 18–2: Estimate of Replacement Cost
The landlord carries contents insurance that should cover the damage to the furnishings, equipment, and to the computers, and the insurance company adjuster will come tomorrow to assess the furnishings and equipment damage. However, your boss is sure that the insurance settlement will not cover replacement costs. Consequently, you have been instructed to prepare an estimate of what has been lost and/or damaged plus an estimate of what the replacement cost might be. How would you go about it? What would your summary of these losses look like?
Assignment Exercise 18–3: Benchmarking
Review the chapter text about benchmarking.
Required
1. Select an organization: either from the Case Studies in Chapters 27–28 or from one of the Mini-Case Studies in Chapters 29–31.
2. Prepare a list of measures that could be benchmarked for this organization. Comment on why these items are important for benchmarking purposes.

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 10–1: Components of Balance Sheet and Statement of Net Income
Identify the following MHS balance sheet components. List the name of each component and its amount(s) from the appropriate MHS financial statement.
Current Liabilities Total Assets Income from Operations Accumulated Depreciation Total Operating Revenue Current Portion of Long-Term Debt Interest Income Inventories Assignment Exercise 10–2: Components of Balance Sheet and Income Statement
Refer to the Metropolis Health System (MHS) balance sheet and statement of revenue and expense in Chapter 28’s MHS Case Study. Patient accounts receivable of $7,400,000 is shown as net of $1,300,000 allowance for bad debts (8,700,000 − 1,300,000 = 7,400,000).
(1) What percentage of gross accounts receivable is the allowance for bad debts?
Assignment Exercise 10–3: Components of Balance Sheet and Income Statement
Refer to the Metropolis Health System (MHS) balance sheet and statement of revenue and expense in Chapter 28’s MHS Case Study. Property, plant, and equipment of $19,300,000 is shown as “net,” meaning net of the reserve for depreciation. If the $19,300,000 is reduced by $200,000 (meaning the reserve for depreciation has risen), what happens on the income statement?
If the reserve for depreciation has risen, that is the $19,300,000 is reduced by $200,000, it would mean that the net income would be lower. A higher depreciation lowers operating income and this would be reflected on the income statement.
Assignment Exercise 11–1: Liquidity Ratios

Part 1—Dr. John Whitten is still figuring out his equipment fund. According to his calculations he needs $250,000 to be accumulated six years from now. John is now trying to find the present value of the $250,000. He continues to assume an interest rate of 5%.
Compute the present value of $250,000 accumulated fifteen years from now. Assume an interest rate of 5%. (Use the Present-Value Table found in Appendix 12-A at the back of this chapter.)
Part 2—John doesn’t like the answer he gets. What if he can raise the interest rate to 7%? How much difference would that make?
Compute the present value of $250,000 accumulated fifteen years from now assuming an interest rate of 7%.
Compare the difference between this amount and the present value at 5%.
Assignment Exercise 12–4: Computing an Internal Rate of Return
Dr. Whitten has decided to purchase equipment that has a cost of $60,000 and will produce a pretax net cash inflow of $30,000 per year over its estimated useful life of six years. The equipment will have no salvage value and will be depreciated by the straight-line method. The tax rate is 50%. Determine Dr. Whitten’s approximate after-tax internal rate of return.
Assignment Exercise 12–5: Payback Period
Based on the calculations, he should purchase Machine B. It would take approximately two and a half years (2.4 years) for the investment made in Machine B to be equal to the amount of cash originally spent buying the machine. It would take Machine A 3 years to pay back the money spent to purchase it.
