Tierney Construction, Inc. recently lost a portion of its financial records in an office theft. The following accounting information remained in the office files: Cost of goods sold $ 92,750 Work in process inventory, January 1, 2016 23,600 Work in process inventory, December 31, 2016 18,750 Selling and Administrative Expenses 22,800 Net Income 38,500 Factory overhead 22,550 Direct materials inventory, January 1, 2016 29,400 Direct materials inventory, December 31, 2016 16,125 Cost of goods manufactured 112,450 Finished goods inventory, January 1, 2016 38,225 Direct labor cost incurred during the period amounted to 2.5 times the factory overhead. The CFO of Tierney Construction, Inc. has asked you to recalculate the following accounts and to report to him by the end of tomorrow. What should be the amount of direct materials used?

$28,675 = direct materials used

Explanation:

To calculate the direct material used, we need to use the following formula:

Cost of goods manufactured= beginning WIP + direct materials used + direct labor + allocated manufacturing overhead - Ending WIP

112,450= 23,600 + direct materials used + (22,550*2.5) + 22,550 - 18,750

112,450 - 23,600 - 56,375 - 22,550 + 18,750 = direct materials used

$28,675 = direct materials used

Options:

a. The small land-owner had an advantage in the negotiations by possessing something that the mine needed. 

b. It allowed for equality in the negotiations between interested parties. 

c. The impoverished context allowed the government to gain access to the land.

Answer:

c. The impoverished context allowed the government to gain access to the land. 

Explanation:

The explorations that led to the discovery of Tintaya mine go back to 1917. In 1971, the Peruvian government promoted the exploitation  of the mine. In 1980, the expropriation of approximately 4,000 hectares of land, owned by the communities, was carried out. It is for this reason that started a dispute between the commoners and the Company. In 1985 the exploitation of Tintaya began and it became the third producer of the country. In 1994, the mine was bought by Broken Hill Proprietary (BHP), who subsequently merged with the company Billiton, forming the second biggest group in the world production of minerals. In 2001, the first proposal for the framework agreement was made public. An agreement was reached and the framework agreement was consolidated in 2003. The signature of the framework agreement was an innovative milestone. Never before, a mining company had agreed to transfer a percentage of profits to communities and to engage to dialogue with them at all times. In 2005, a violent takeover occurred of the Tintaya facilities. A reformulation of the framework agreement was demanded. The implementation of the framework agreement was taking place very slowly. The president of BHP Billiton had to suspend the mining activity until a new agreement was reached. Then the negotiations began again. Xstrata Cooper (now Glencore) bought Tintaya from BHP Billiton in 2006. The owner changed, but the same conflicts and mobilizations continued until 2012. The last stoppage lasted eight days. During this paralysis, violent acts occurred and even the mine was asked to close, which was completely rejected by the government. At present, no resolution or reformulation of the framework agreement has been reached. 

So is often the case, the expansion of mining activity led to the expropriation or purchase of land, back in 1980, from five communities and left open conflicts (low prices, evictions, illegitimate negotiations, etc.), as well as various environmental and human rights problems.

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although the question does not provide any options, we can say that the set of factors in the ethical decision-making process are individual, collective, and social.

Ethics and integrity should be "common sense." Moral values and attitudes are so important as key behaviors by the members of the organization. If employees are not guided by these concepts, the risk is that they could deviate from the guidelines and performance expected by the management.

The leader of the company and top management are the ones who have to set the example in order for the workers to follow those steps. The leader has to set an example of the conduct expected in the organization.

Answer:

Yes, she could be her own boss. She could use a sole proprietorship , also known as a sole tradership, individual entrepreneurship or proprietorship, is a type of enterprise owned and run by one person and in which there is no legal distinction between the owner and the business entity. A sole trader does not necessarily work "alone"—it is possible for the sole trader to employ other people.
