Pleаse reаd the cаse study and answer the questiоns that fоllоw: Mr Price A successful business has strong leadership as can be seen with Mr Price’s (Mrp) CEO Stuart Bird who has been taking the business to new heights. Mrp has also been able to keep a competitive advantage by starting up Mrp money and Mrp mobile in order to keep their consumers loyal to the Mrp brand. It is clear to see that Mrp satisfies the needs and wants of their consumer group as they stay updated with all the trends and keep their market segment happy. The four factors of production are used efficiently in Mrp. This can be seen in the following ways: * Land: There are many stores nationwide. * Labour: There has been little to no industrial action and staff seem to be happy. * Capital: The share price has grown over the years and shareholders are being paid dividends regularly. * Entrepreneurship: All the executives at Mrp are actively pursuing the company’s vision. Mrp is responsible, accountable and transparent towards their stakeholders in the following ways: Mrp pays dividends to its shareholders. They are transparent in publishing accurate Annual Integrated reports annually. Commits to skills development of employees. Has many social responsibility programmes like: ‘Our Planet’ where Mrp recognises environmental and climate change and are trying to build a sustainable business, community and planet - this is evidence of Mrp being accountable for the businesses actions. ‘Young hero’s’ focusses on physical exercise in low income schools - this is evidence of Mrp taking responsibility for the community.

The following information pertains to questions 1-6. Organix Pharmaceuticals is considering a new drug to prevent migraine headaches. Preliminary research on the drug is promising, but it is still a risky venture because advanced research and development, clinical trials and FDA licensing outcomes are uncertain. If Organix launches the new drug and they are able to obtain FDA approval, they expect the following for the first year of production: Fixed costs: R&D Expenses: $25,000,000 Regulatory Compliance: $2,500,000 Advertising: $6,000,000 Legal Expenses: $9,000,000 Manufacturing Overhead: $4,000,000 Allocated Staff: $3,600,000 Insurance: $1,200,000 Variable costs: Sales Commission: 4.5% of Sales Revenue Production Cost per Unit: $337 Taxes: 40% of Pre-Tax Income Sales estimates: Sales Price per Unit: $350 Number of Units Sold: 15,000,000 Further assume that in the second year of production that R&D Expenses drop to $3,000,000, Regulatory Compliance costs fall to $750,000 and that the number of units sold will grow by 5%. All other inputs are the same as those given for year 1. 1. In worksheet P1-P4: Complete the analysis provided in this worksheet (like the one in the figure below), estimating the firm’s sales revenue, total fixed costs, production costs, sales commission, total variable costs, total costs, pre-tax income (sales revenue – total costs), taxes, profit and profit margin (= total profit/sales revenue). All calculated variables in the table should be shown in dollar form (showing no decimals), except profit margin, which should be shown in percentage form (to two decimal places.) 15 points 2. Beginning in cell F4 in the P1-P4 worksheet: Set up a one-input data table to show what happens to Sales Revenue and Profit Margin in Year 1 when the Number of Units Sold varies as follows: 9 million (entered as 9,000,000), 12 million, 15 million, 18 million, 21 million. Ensure that the resulting Sales Revenues figures are expressed in Currency number format (no decimal places) and Profit Margins are expressed in Percentage number format (showing two decimal places). Also use the custom number format to “hide” the values in H3 and I3 where you reference the sales and profit margin cells. 10 points Note: The data table should resemble the following prior to the estimation (here, the references in cells H3 and I3 are already hidden), including the labels and borders: 3. Beginning in cell L4 in the P1-P4 worksheet: Set up a two-input data table to demonstrate what happens to Profit Margin in Year 1 when the Number of units sold varies as in part (a) and when Sales price per Unit varies as follows: $335, $340, $345, $350, $355, $360, $365. Again, ensure that the resulting Profit Margin figures are expressed in Percentage number format (showing two decimal places) and hide the value in cell M3 where you reference the profit margin cell from the model. 15 points Note: The data table should resemble the following prior to the estimation (here, the reference in cell M3 is already hidden), including the labels and borders: 4. In worksheet P1-P4: Set up two scenarios in the Scenario Manager to help Organix do some risk analysis. The scenarios should be named “Best Case” and “Worst Case” with the following assumptions: 10 points Best Case: Number of Units Sold = 21,000,000, Sales Price per Unit = $365, Production Cost per Unit = $330 and Unit Sales Growth in Year 2 = 7%. Worst Case: Number of Units Sold = 9,000,000, Sales Price per Unit = $335, Production Cost per Unit = $340 and Unit Sales Growth in Year 2 = 2%. a. Generate the scenario Summary Table. The table should show results for Year 1 and Year 2 Sales Revenue and Profit Margin. Be sure that the resulting table shows the initial assumptions for number of units sold, sales price per unit, etc. under “Current Values.” 5 points b. Ensure that you change the labels in the resulting scenario table from the cell references to the variable names to correctly identify the “Changing Cells” and the “Result Cells.” 5 points Note: The resulting Scenario Summary should resemble the following (obviously, I have deleted the numbers) and will automatically open in a new worksheet named "Scenario Summary." Leave the table in the newly generated worksheet. 5. Copy only the data in columns A-D (the actual model itself, excluding the data tables) in the P1-P4 worksheet to the P5 worksheet: Use Goal Seek to determine the Sales Price per Unit Organix must achieve to break even in Year 1 (that is, Profit = $0). Highlight your answer in A4 in yellow. 5 points 6. Copy only the data in columns A-D (the actual model itself, excluding the data tables) in the P1-P4 worksheet to the P6 worksheet: Use Goal Seek to determine the Sales Price per Unit Organix must achieve to obtain a profit margin of 4.5% in Year 2. Highlight your answer in A4 in yellow. 5 points 7. In worksheet P7: Wood Walker is a self-employed furniture maker. He makes three different styles of tables: A, B, and C. Each model of table requires a certain amount of time for cutting component parts, for assembling, and for painting. Wood can sell all the units he makes. Model B may be sold without painting. Use the data in the table below and Excel’s Solver tool to determine the number of each model Wood should make to maximize his total profit. 15 points Hint: Total Profit will equal the number of each model he makes multiplied by the profit per table. You want to maximize Total Profit subject to the constraints that the total number of hours used for cutting, assembling and painting are each less than the given capacities (amount available). Once you have completed your quiz, upload your completed Excel file to this question. Please rename the Excel file using the initial of your first name, your last name and "Quiz 3," For example, Jane Doe would rename her quiz file "JDoeQuiz3." After you have uploaded your file, you may submit your exam which will automatically close you out of Honorlock.
