  luncheon budget

The Redmond Management Association held its annual public relations luncheon in April Year 2. Based on the previous year’s results, the organization allocated $31,760 of its operating budget to cover the cost of the luncheon. To ensure that costs would be appropriately controlled, Molly Hubbard, the treasurer, prepared the following budget for the Year 2 luncheon.

The budget for the luncheon was based on the following expectations:

1.The meal cost per person was expected to be $13.80. The cost driver for meals was attendance, which was expected to be 1,600 individuals.

2.Postage was based on $0.84 per invitation and 4,000 invitations were expected to be mailed. The cost driver for postage was number of invitations mailed.

3.The facility charge is $3,000 for a room that will accommodate up to 1,700 people; the charge for one to hold more than 1,700 people is $3,500.

4.A fixed amount was designated for printing, decorations, the speaker’s gift, and publicity.

Reasons for the differences between the budgeted and actual data follow.

 

1. The president of the organization, Rodney Snow, increased the invitation list to include 1,000 former members. As a result, 5,000 invitations were mailed.
2. Attendance was 1,820 individuals. Because of higher-than-expected attendance, the luncheon was moved to a larger room, thereby increasing the facility charge to$3,500
3. At the last minute, Ms. Hubbard decided to add a dessert to the menu, which increased the meal cost to $14.5 per person.
4. Printing, decorations, the speaker’s gift, and publicity costs were as budgeted.

Required:

1. Prepare a flexible budget and compute the sales and variable cost volume variances based on a comparison between the master budget and the flexible budget.
2. Compute flexible budget variances by comparing the flexible budget with the actual  results.

 

PALM

A 46-year-old man presents with chief complaint of 3-day duration of shortness of breath, cough with thick green sputum production, and fevers. He has a history of COPD with chronic cough but states the cough has gotten much worse and is interfering with his sleep. Sputum is thicker and harder for him to expectorate. Chest X-Ray reveals flattened diaphragm and increased AP diameter. Auscultation demonstrates hyper resonance and coarse rales and rhonchi throughout all lung fields.

Explain the following:

1· The cardiovascular and cardiopulmonary pathophysiologic processes that result in the patient presenting these symptoms.

2· Any racial/ethnic variables that may impact physiological functioning.

3· How these processes interact to affect the patient.
