actions to minimize the likelihood that this practice would occur in your new team.Your answer should also explain why each of theses actions would be effective.

The points listed below are based on the ways mentioned in the textbook to manage team norms.However, creative students may present other solutions that are also aligned with the concepts presented in this chapter.
a.When selecting team members, you should try to identify employees who do not engage in the horseplay.For example, you might look at personnel records and speak to current and past supervisors of employees who apply for a position in your unit.
b.During the interview, at the time of job offer and when the person begins work, be sure to discuss the norms that you want the team to adopt and avoid, including the horseplay with forklifts.When the team is formed, you should call a meeting to emphasize the problems resulting from forklift horseplay.Persuasive communication techniques should be used to convince staff members.For example, someone previously injured from these antics could speak to the newly formed team.
c.If possible, the team should be relatively isolated from other units in the organization so that this norm is not adopted through regular discussions with employees from other teams.
d.The team might have a bonus system based on productivity and cost reduction.This might prevent horseplay with forklifts in two ways.First, employees on a team bonus system might view horseplay as a waste of valuable time that could be used more productively.Second, any damage due to these antics would put a financial burden on the team or, at least, reduce its chances of a bonus.

At a recent professional meeting, two accountants discussed product-costing problems in their respective companies. Both accountants are familiar with ABC systems but neither firm uses this method.
Accountant A reported that part of the problem in product costing in his firm is that there are major differences between product lines as to volume of units, utilisation of various activities, quality assurance requirements established by customers and size of the products. Accountant B noted that in her firm, which produces consumer products, all products undergo the same basic production processes and in the same sequence, but in an increasing variety of colours and packaging modes.
Both accountants are worried about the potential distortion of product costs under their traditional product costing systems.
Which accountant should be more concerned about the potential distortion? Explain.

Accountant A should be more concerned. The variety of product lines made in his firm's facility reflects product diversity at the product line level. In accountant B's firm, there still is only one product line with an increasing number of models based on colour and packaging. While more attention may need to be devoted to assigning the packaging costs (perhaps through a version of operation costing), the situation in that firm is not as severe as in the firm with several product lines.

Par Inc. purchased 70% of the outstanding voting shares of Sub Inc. for $700000 on July 1, 2020. On that date, Sub Inc. had common shares and retained earnings worth $410,000 and $170,000, respectively. The Equipment had a remaining useful life of 5 years from the date of acquisition. Sub's bonds mature on July 1, 2025. The inventory was sold in the year following the acquisition. Both companies use straight line amortization, and no salvage value is assumed for assets. Par Inc. and Sub Inc. declared and paid $10,000 and $5,000 in dividends, respectively during the year.
Par Inc. uses the Fair Value Enterprise Method to value the non-controlling interest in Sub Inc. on the acquisition date.
The balance sheets of both companies, as well as Sub's fair values immediately following the acquisition are shown below:
