CHAPTER 2: RELEVANT REVENUES AND COSTS The primary goal of a firm is to maximize profits. This implies, of course, that each decision a manager makes is consistent with that goal. Although managers are expected to rely on internally-produced reports, such as balance sheets and income statements, to help them make decisions, most of the information that appears on these statements is period-based rather than decision-based. A balance sheet shows the sum total of a firm’s assets and liabilities

its ability to control its costs. Some companies may control costs in one area and expect drastic improvements in profits; however, this is not the outcome many will achieve. Because the costs in different areas are intertwined, they must all be considered when trying to improve profitability. Walmart is a fantastic example of how controlling costs in multiple areas can improve profitability. The remainder or this paper will be considering how Walmart controlled costs in the following activities:

Question 1: (a) Suppose the income elasticity of demand for pre-recorded music compact disks is +5 and the income elasticity of demand for a cabinet maker’s work is +0.5. Compare the impact on pre-recorded music compact disks and the cabinet maker’s work of a recession that reduces consumer incomes by 10 per cent. (2 marks) (b) How might you determine whether the pre-recorded music compact discs and MP3 music players are in competition with each other? (2 marks) (c) Interpret the

with new fabrication, labor is a key prime cost associated with service and regular maintenance of aircraft. Though this cost is easy to allocate to specific airframes by hour, it is also important to note that service and maintenance require a higher percentage of Support Costs through inspections, analysis, and customer involvement activities.

ANNUAL COST PURPOSE For investments (purchases) of buildings and equipment, which are expected to last several years, it is reasonable to place their cost on an annual basis over several years, rather than a single year. Viewing cost on an annual basis allows easy comparison to anticipated changes in income or productivity that will be required to pay for the item. For instance, if annual cost of a mix wagon is $3,000, then an equivalent increase in net milk income will cover its cost. For 100 cows

1. Define the terms ‘opportunity cost’ and ‘the margin’ and give an example of how they are used by economists to set priorities. Opportunity cost is the cost of choosing one option, or using a resource in one way, over another. The missed benefit may be in resources (such as a gardener choosing to grow pumpkins or cucumbers), in dollars (the price of buying meal A versus meal B), in life years saved (such as a patient being given one treatment over another), or other characteristics difficult to

hypotheses. H1: Business cost structure is positively correlated with the company’s propensity to outsource its information system.
