- Known for its stylish ready-to-assemble home furnishings, IKEA has long relied on an extensive supplier net- work to manufacture its products and support its rapid global expansion. It has worked hard to develop a successful approach to encourage high ethical standards among its suppliers, including standards concerning the notoriously difficult issue of child labor. IKEA's initial plan to combat the use of child labor by its suppliers involved (1) contracts that threatened immediate cancellation and (2) random audits by a thirdparty partner. Despite these safeguards, the company discovered that some of its Indian suppliers were still employing children. IKEA realized that this issue would crop up again and again if it continued to use low-cost suppliers in developing countries—a critical element in its cost-containment strategy. 2020-2021 Page 7 of 8 Using child labor, for example, can signal bigger problems: production inefficiencies that require the lowest cost labor, lack of…arrow_forward106 According to the Red Flags rules under the Fair and Accurate Credit Transactions Act (FACTA), which of the following circumstances is a warning sign of identity theft A) Late student loan payment B) Recent escalation of unusual credit card charges C) Account owner status as a non-resident alien D) Early payoff of a car loanarrow_forwardSection 139, Disaster Relief Payment, was enacted by Congress in 2001 to ensure that victims of a qualified disaster would not be required to include in gross income payments received for funeral expenses resulting from a terrorist attack.

- Pilot Petroleum Associates, Inc., and various affiliated companies distributed gasoline to retail gasoline stations in the state of New York. Pilot owned some of these stations and leased them to individual operators who were under contract to purchase gasoline from Pilot. The EPA took samples of gasoline from five different service stations to which Pilot had sold unleaded gasoline. These samples showed that Pilot had delivered “unleaded gasoline that contained amounts of lead in excess of that permitted by the Clean Air Act and EPA regulations.” The United States brought criminal charges against Pilot for violating the act and EPA regulations and sought fines from Pilot.

Using high-bandwidth optical fiber, the company was able to sell capacity at less than half the price of existing competitors. After six months of operations, Global Crossing offered stock to the public, and the resulting price valued the firm at an astounding $19 billion. Six months later it was valued at $38 billion, more than the Ford Motor Company. The cable technology was not proprietary and data-carrying capacity was a commodity. That meant that customers could easily switch from one supplier to another, putting them in a powerful bargaining position. Furthermore, customers were price-sensitive. Even worse, the threat of entry was high, and other companies were entering the business, fueled by easy financing. High fixed costs but near-zero marginal costs (the cost to carry one more piece of data) led to fierce price competition within the industry. As new…arrow_forward

In addition to canned pineapple, the Philippine producers exported other products used as pineapple juice and juice concentrate. these products used separate parts of the same fresh pineapple used for the canned pineapple. All these products shared raw material costs with the canned fruit, according to the producers' own financial records. To determine fair value and anti-dumping duties, the pineapple industry argued that a court should calculate the Philippine producers' cost of production and allocate a portion of the shared fruit costs to the canned fruit. The result of this allocation showed that more than 90 percent of the canned fruit sales were below the cost of production. Is this a reasonable approach to determining the production costs and fair market value of canned pineapple…arrow_forwardToshiba Corporation, a Japanese electronics and engineering conglomerate with headquarters in Tokyo, produces a wide range of products, including personal computers, semiconductors, consumer electronics, household appliances, and nuclear power plant systems.
