Adair, John. Decision Making & Problem Solving. Kurgan Page. 2013. Print.
Adair has published about 30 books on leadership and leadership development. He is currently a national and international adviser on leadership development. In this book he writes about how to apply effective decision-making, generating ideas, and thinking skills. He goes into detail every chapter on each topic. Providing graphs, figures, and even problem-solving games to keep the mind active. I chose this book for the Principle of Decision-Making concept. The book provides good in-depth strategies to make decisions. It would be a good source to find tips and information on how to use your mind wisely while making decisions and how to deal with the decisions you make. Buchanan, Leah; O’Connell Andrew. “A Brief History of Decision Making.” Harvard Business Publishing. Harvard Business Review Mag., Jan. 2006. Web. 28 Sept. 2013. Buchanan & O’Connell give an overview of the history of decision-making. They reference professors, authors, and philosophers in the article. They believe in order to make good choices you must calculate and manage attendant risks. Focusing on risk being the inevitable focal point of decisions. They also go over numeric system methods that have been used to calculate risks. Risk has been viewed as a number game. This source is good to read a quick overview of decision-making. The article focuses a lot on Risk, and I believe that is an important aspect of each decision being made.

Questions two:

Do the term LIPO, FIFO and weighted average refer to techniques used in determining quantities of the various classes of merchandise on hand? Please explain

The Children’s Store is on Fifth Avenue in Chicago It has a magic department near
the main door Management is considering dropping the magic department, which
has consistently shown an operating loss The predicted income statements, in
thousands of dollars, are shown below
The $300,000 of magic department fixed expenses include the compensation of
employees of $120,000 These employees will be terminated if the magic
department is abandoned All of the magic department’s equipment is fully
depreciated, so none of the $300,000 pertains to such items Furthermore,
disposal values of equipment will be exactly offset by the costs of removal and
remodeling
If the magic department is dropped, the manager will use the vacated space for
either more general merchandise or more electronic products The expansion of
general merchandise would not entail hiring any additional salaried help, but
more electronic products would require an additional person at an annual cost of
$30,000 The manager thinks that sales of general merchandise would increase by
$250,000; electronic products by $200,000 The manager’s modest predictions are
partially based on the fact that she thinks the magic department has helped lure
customers to the store and, thus, improved overall sales If the magic department
is closed, that lure would be gone Sales

computations Clean and Brita manufactures three different models of swimming pool cleaners (AR1, AR2,
and BR1) These are sophisticated computer-controlled, programmed cleaners that scrub and
vacuum the pool’s bottom, and steps and provide supplemental filtration of pool water The
three models differ in their capacity and programmability
Clean and Brite uses an absorption costing system that absorbs manufacturing overhead to
the three models based on direct labor hours The single plantwide manufacturing overhead
rate is predetermined before the beginning of the fiscal year using a flexible manufacturing
overhead budget Variable manufacturing overhead is budgeted to be $300 per direct
labor hour, and fixed manufacturing overhead is budgeted to be $1,397,500 Direct labor
is budgeted at $25 per DLH The following table summarizes the budgeted and actual
