future periods It is normally associated with the acquisition or improvement of plant assets The real distinction between a capital and revenue expenditure is not the immediate charging of the expenditure to income, as opposed to its gradual amortization, but the length of time required for its recovery in cash Recoveries of revenue expenditures, such as product costs, are expected to take place in a matter of weeks or, at the most, months The financial recovery of capital expenditures is measured in terms of years Q16-2 Purposes of a research and development program are: (a) A planned search for new knowledge pertaining to the industry without reference to a specific application (b) Creation of a new product or improvement of an existing product (c) Invention of a new or improved process or machinery to make a finished product or component Reasons for a research and development program are: (a) To protect the sales dollar, that is, to meet competition Improving the quality of performance of products or achieving cost savings in either operating or capital expenditures falls into this category (b) To research to promote new sales dollars, either by entering a new market or by significantly expanding an existing market (c) To investigate problems with respect to environmental protection, safety, working conditions, etc Q16-3 Budgetary procedures for research and development expenditures are designed to: (a) force management to think about planned expenditures; (b) coordinate research and development plans with the immediate and long-range plans of the company; Q16-4 Q16-5 Q16-6 Q16-7 16-1 (c) force the research and development staff to consider major nonfinancial aspects of the program, such as personnel, equipment, and facilities requirements A cash budget involves detailed estimates of anticipated cash receipts and disbursements for a specified period of time It is designed to assist management in coordinating cash flow from operations as a basis for financial plans and control The cash budget provides a systematic approach to the synchronization of cash resources with needs It assists management in making intelligent decisions concerning capital expenditures, dividend policies, investments, and other financial matters, and often exerts a cautionary influence on any of the above plans Periodic reports comparing actual with planned receipts and disbursements permit effective and continuous control of cash by signaling significant deviations from the financial plans for the period (a) Nonmanufacturing businesses must plan for the future just as carefully as manufacturing concerns Seasonal patterns in revenues and expenditures must be provided for, and required equipment replacement and expansions must be budgeted (b) Not-for-profit organizations generally operate on relatively fixed incomes that are received at one time Such receipt patterns are common for organizations that rely on tax dollars for support These funds must be allocated throughout the year in order to maintain operations Careful budget plans are a necessity for such allocations PPBS stands for Planning, Programming, Budgeting System, and is an analytical tool focused on the output or final results rather than input or initial dollars expended The output is directly relatable to planned goals or objectives Zero-base budgeting (ZBB) is a planning and budgeting tool using cost-benefit analysis of To download more slides, ebook, solutions and test bank, visit http://downloadslide.blogspot.com 16-2 projects and functions to improve an organization’s resource allocation Budget requests consist of decision packages that are analyzed, evaluated, and ranked in a priority order based on cost-benefit analysis Management can then evaluate possible activities for the coming period, selecting those that will best achieve organizational goals Traditional budgeting tends to concentrate on the differential change from the prior year, assuming that existing activities are essential, must be continued, are currently performed in a cost-efficient and optimum manner, and will be cost-effective in the coming year Costs are developed more on a line-item rather than an activity basis ZBB organizes all budget costs in the form of activities and/or operations (decision packages) and evaluates the effectiveness of each decision package as if it were a new activity Q16-8 (a) Zero-base budgeting requires managers to justify their entire budget requests It places the burden of proof on the manager to justify why any money at all should be budgeted It does this by starting with the assumption that zero will be spent on each activity, so the budgeting process begins with a base of zero (b) The two kinds of alternatives considered for each activity are (1) different ways of performing the activity and (2) different levels of effort in performing the activity (c) A decision package includes an analysis of an activity’s cost and purpose, alternative courses of action, measures of performance of the activity, consequences of not performing the activity, and the activity’s benefits (d) A package identifies and describes one activity in sufficient detail so that it can be evaluated and compared with other activities (e) Success in the implementation of zerobase budgeting requires the following: Linkage of zero-base budgeting with short- and long-range planning Sustained support and commitment from executive management Innovation by managers in developing decision packages Acceptance of zero-base budgeting by persons who must perform the budgeting work Chapter 16 Q16-9 Prospective information should be provided in external financial statements when it will enhance the reliability of the user’s predictions Q16-10 PERT is particularly appropriate as a scheduling and controlling technique for projects consisting of a large number of tasks, some of which cannot be started until others are complete, and some of which can be undertaken concurrently Conceptually, the reference is to a network of interdependent activities which, as a group, require considerable time to complete There is usually substantial set-up time (and cost) associated with analyzing, defining, and estimating each discrete project activity; thus, the benefit is in projects requiring a considerable amount of time and consisting of a relatively complex network PERT allows the user to update and revise scheduled activities and thereby determine the effects of changes on the overall project It is particularly appropriate when the timing of individual activities and the project completion date are critical to success Q16-11 Slack is computed by subtracting the earliest expected time from the latest allowable time The earliest expected time is the earliest time that an activity can be expected to start, because of its relationship to pending activities The latest allowable time is the latest time that an activity may begin and not delay completion of the project Slack is determinable only in relation to an entire path through the network Q16-12 PERT/cost is really an extension of PERT With time-options available, it seems advisable to assign cost to time and activities, thereby providing total financial planning and control by functional responsibility Q16-13 Computer support offers distinct advantages to PERT users PERT is a mathematicallyoriented technique and is therefore ideally suited to the high-speed response of computers for deriving the critical path, slack times, and costs, and for storing and reporting results to management Revisions to all schedule elements, whether during the initial estimating phase or during the active project phase, can be updated and the revised results promptly reported Computer support is helpful in dealing with large, complex networks of interdependencies To download more slides, ebook, solutions and test bank, visit

formats, including graphic network display as well as printed reports at various summary levels Current reporting provides information to project managers, enabling quick reaction to deviations 16-3 Q16-14 The traditional budget focuses on one set of assumptions The probabilistic budget provides for evaluating several sets of assumptions, including the probability of each and a composite expected value, range, and standard deviation for each budget element To download more slides, ebook, solutions and test bank, visit http://downloadslide.blogspot.com 16-4 Chapter 16 EXERCISES E16-1 Beginning

problems that Triple-F Health Club could experience in 20C include: (a) The lessons and classes contribution to cash will decrease because the projected wage increase for lesson and class employees is not made up by the increased volume of lessons and classes (b) Operating expenses are increasing faster than revenues from membership fees (c) Triple-F seems to have a cash management problem Although there appears to be enough cash generated for the club to meet its obligations, past due amounts occur Perhaps the cash balance may not be large enough for day-to-day operating purposes To download

justified The 20C budget projections show only a minimal increase of $2.8 in the cash balance The total cash available is well short of the $60.0 annual additional cash needed for the land purchase over and above the club’s working capital needs; however, it appears that the new equipment purchases can be made on an annual basis If the board desires to purchase the adjoining property, it is going to have to consider significant increases in fees or other methods of financing, such as membership bonds or additional mortgage debt P16-6 (1) Schedule of budgeted cash receipts by month for

because it is the longest path (3) The total cost of the project as planned is: Activity A-B A-C B-D B-E C-D D-E E-F E-G F-H G-H Total normal cost Normal Cost $ 1,000 800 1,500 5,100 2,500 600 1,700

weeks, at least weeks must be cut from the project in order to complete it in 12 weeks As originally planned (determined from requirement (2)), the following three paths require more than 12 weeks: Path A-B-E-G-H A-B-E-F-H A-C-D-E-F-H = = = Time Required 2+5+3+3 2+5+4+3 1+4+1+4+3 = = = 13 weeks 14 weeks 13 weeks The first place to start reducing time is the critical path, A-B-E-F-H, because the largest amount of time must be cut from this path In this project, each activity on the critical path can be crashed, so the first activity to crash should be the one that has the smallest crash cost per week By crashing activity F-H, which costs $2,800, path A-B-E-F-H is shortened by one week to 13 weeks In addition, since activity F-H is on path A-C-D-E-F-H, it is shortened to the required 12 weeks Now one more week must be cut from activity A-B-E-F-H and from activity A-B-E-G-H to bring each path and the total project down to 12 weeks The activity that costs the least to crash and that is common to both paths is activity B-E, which will cost $5,200 to crash one week The only other way to reduce both paths by one week would be to crash one activity on each path (activity EG for $4,600 or G-H for $2,300 on path A-B-E-G-H and also activity E-F on path A-B-E-F-H for $3,700), which will result in a minimum additional cost of $6,000 Therefore, the minimum cost to reduce the total project time from 14 weeks to 12 weeks is $8,000, resulting from reducing activity B-E and F-H by one week each for costs of $2,800 and $5,200, respectively Since the minimum additional cost of cutting two weeks off of the total time required to complete the project is $8,000, the minimum total cost of completing the project in 12 weeks is $25,100 ($17,100 normal cost from requirement (3) plus $8,000 additional cost) To download more slides, ebook, solutions and test bank, visit http://downloadslide.blogspot.com 16-24 Chapter 16 P16-9 (1) The normal critical path is: + + + + = 11 weeks A — B — E — H — K — L The normal cost to be incurred in opening the store is the sum of the normal cost of all 14 activities—$85,000 (2) The minimum time in which the store could be opened is weeks at an additional cost of $11,500, or a total cost of $96,500 ($85,000 + $11,500) Potential Alternative Expected Time New Paths Time Reduction Time A-B-E-H-K-L 11 weeks (A-B, B-E) weeks A-C-F-I-K-L — A-C-F-J-K-L 10 (F-J, J-K) A-D-G-J-K-L (D-G, J-K) The new critical path becomes A-C-F-J-K-L Reduced-time programs would be initiated on the following activities: Activities A-B B-E F-J J-K Reduced Time week Reduced Cost $ 4,500 3,500 2,000 1,500 $11,500 The activity D-G reduction is excluded because it would not contribute to reducing the total project time (3) The store should be opened on the normal schedule because the cost ($11,500) exceeds the benefit ($6,000) The reduced program would save weeks at a cost of $11,500, while the earlier opening can be expected to yield an operating income of $2,000 per week, or a total of $6,000 To download more slides, ebook, solutions and test bank, visit http://downloadslide.blogspot.com Chapter 16 16-25 C16-1 (1) (2) (3) (4) Network analysis forces the company to plan ahead and develop a detailed plan for project completion It presents a visualization of all individual tasks and their interrelationships Network analysis provides management with timely information for controlling schedules, shows the effects on the entire project of changes made to individual activities, and allows for the continual updating of project progress Disadvantages of network analysis as a means of organizing and coordinating projects include the use of probabilistic schedules that may be highly subjective, a bias toward overly optimistic time estimates often based on management expectations, and the need for cooperation among a large number of units to establish consistent priorities A disproportionate amount of management time and effort may be required for planning for the benefit received; there may be other alternatives that could be more effective Norm Robertson would be concerned with the delay in activity A-D because it would shift the critical path from Start-B-C-F-I-J-Finish Shiela Neil’s estimate of the time for activity A-D (10 to 12 weeks) results in Start-A-D-G-J-Finish requiring 23 to 25 weeks Furthermore, Neil’s comment that activity A-D cannot start until after activity B-E means that B-E becomes part of this new critical path, making the critical path Start-B-E-A-D-G-J-Finish with a time requirement of 28 to 30 weeks Thus, the change in the relationship of the activities would change the critical path even more, so that the project will be completed to 10 weeks later than the original estimate Norm Robertson developed the PERT diagram for the Vector-12 project with inadequate input Robertson should have consulted all the departments involved in the project to ensure that the expected times required to complete the activities were attainable Because Neil was not consulted, the time required for activity A-D was incorrect, and the relationship between activities A-D and B-E was missing from the network The behavior problems that could arise within Caltron Inc as a consequence of the planning of the Vector-12 project include: (a) A lack of commitment to the project on the part of the department directors, particularly Neil, because of their exclusion from the planning process (b) Conflict among the department directors that could affect future working relationships (c)
