cost accounting 29

Paula Beane owns a restaurant franchise that is part of a chain of “southern homestyle” restaurants. One of the chain’s popular breakfast items is biscuits and gravy. Central Warehouse makes and freezes the biscuit dough, which it then sells to the franchise stores where it is thawed and baked in the individual stores by the cook. Each franchise also has a purchasing agent who orders the biscuits (and other items) based on expected demand. In March 2015, one of the freezers in Central Warehouse breaks down and biscuit production is reduced by 25% for 3 days. During those 3 days, Paula’s franchise runs out of biscuits but demand does not slow down. Paula’s franchise cook, Betty Baker, sends one of the kitchen helpers to the local grocery store to buy refrigerated ready-to-bake biscuits. Although the customers are kept happy, the refrigerated biscuits cost Paula’s franchise three times the cost of the Central Warehouse frozen biscuits, and the franchise loses money on this item for those 3 days. Paula is angry with the purchasing agent for not ordering enough biscuits to avoid running out of stock and with Betty for spending too much money on the replacement biscuits. Who is responsible for the cost of the biscuits? At what level is the cost controllable? Do you agree that Paula should be angry with the purchasing agent? With Betty? Why or why not?

Requirments: Answer all questions completely. Post should be 230 words or more, use only creditable sources.

bus438 marketing management case study analyses

CASE ANALYSES:

Cases are useful learning tools. They allow you to analyze an actual business situation and to consider real marketing problems. The purpose of the case analysis is to define the problem facing the firm, generate alternative solutions, and suggest the best solution based on market place conditions and the firm’s resources. Your analysis and recommendations will be richer if you spend time trying to discern and then employ the appropriate set of theoretical frameworks and analytical tools that you have been exposed to thus far.

Even though these are real business situations, you should not be concerned in your analysis about the actual decisions of the firms (some of the cases are old enough that decisions have been made and results are obvious). First, there are always many options available to managers, and you should not assume the managers made the optimal decision. Second, sometimes cases are simplified, the time frame shrunk and/or only a portion of the situation is presented to you. Therefore, the real situation may have been more complex or even slightly different from the case presentation, to make your task easier. Third, even if a firm made a “good” decision, it is likely that other effective alternatives were available. Therefore, there will be no grading criterion which includes the firm’s actual decisions, and you should NOT spend time trying to locate the “real” decisions at the expense of thoughtful, original analysis.

The use of background data (as the “Internal Consultants” and “Management” teams – the two case teams) will typically not be needed as the case packet provides the relevant and requisite information. However, recent theories, analytical tools and marketing frameworks to analyze the industry, the product, the market, the consumers, the competitors, etc., can be used to structure your analysis.

ALL INFORMATION NOT DIRECTLY REFERENCED IN THE CASE MUST BE PROPERLY CITED. If you are unsure about how to cite any type of source, see the instructor for guidance.

HONOR CODE: In this course that entails that you are additionally NOT allowed to consult any past work done on these Harvard cases (whether from other students or from Internet sources) unless you have specific permission from the instructor.

CRITERIA: While There Are No “Correct” Solutions To Cases, There Are Clearly “Wrong” Or “Bad” Decisions. Therefore, each case analysis is judged on the recommendations it makes based on the available facts, combined with the sophisticated use of marketing theory, analysis, and clarity of logic.

You will do a 1-page write-up outlining the pertinent issues and your recommendations.

time to design a network

Team Project

New Requirements

Designing a network involves data, voice, and power considerations. Creating a well-integrated social relationship platform involves interoperability with other technologies, such as customer relationship management (CRM). Assume you are designing a network infrastructure for Verbania. The company requires an efficient network that carries data, Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP), and Power over Ethernet (PoE). It also requires the effective use of a CRM system to pull customers’ social media data for review and analysis to improve the user experience and generate profits.

Capstone Project Activity – Unit 2

The project team must analyze the New Requirements. This section will specify what the company will need in the area of solution elements, such as networking, Voice Over Internet Protocol (VoIP), and Power over Ethernet (PoE). Specifically, this section will answer the following questions (at a minimum):

  • Which type of network topology would you recommend for the corporate backbone and the wired and wireless connections? Why do you think this would be the best choice?
  • Which type of cabling would you recommend? Why do you think this would be the best choice?
  • How will the network infrastructure accommodate remote access?
  • What solution would you propose to integrate the social media site with a CRM solution?
  • What security considerations are involved?

Collaborate and work with the network specialist on your team. Be sure to capture and document the decisions made in the appropriate section of the Capstone project document.

Prepare 6–8 pages of content addressing the team’s system analysis of requirements defined in Section One. Insert content into the template document under Section Two.

In 300 words

Review the group questions to be addressed on networking and CRM recommendations that are described in the second half of the Unit 2 IP. Work with your group to divide the questions among the group members. Discuss a recommendation for one of the questions in detail with this broader audience. Obtain other views and perspectives for consideration. Support your recommendation using what you know about the company Verbania, knowledge of technologies, and best practices.

You may wish to prepare a Word document that contains your recommendations.
