...Maydeli Medrano Dr. Price Psychology 2301-83421 2 February 2013 50 First Dates Film Review The film I decided to watch was 50 First Dates (2004) starring Adam Sandler as Henry Roth, Drew Barrymore as Lucy Whitmore, Rob Schneider as Ula, Sean Astin as Doug Whitmore, Blake Clark as Marlin Whitmore, and Amy Hill as Sue (IMDb). I decided to choose this film because as I read what it was about in some websites I saw that it was both a romance and comedy film, and romance movies . I also noticed that Adam Sandler was in this film, and since I have seen a couple of his movies, I know they are hilarious. I actually ended up liking this movie a lot. The film is about Henry Roth, a veterinarian in a water park located in Hawaii. He dates many tourist girls for one night only because he is afraid that if he gets involved in a serious relationship with a local girl, this might stop him from going to Alaska to study walruses (something he dreams about doing). One day as he sails on his ship, “The Sea Serpent”, it broke down and went to a nearby café located of the coast and a woman caught his eye. He did not go up to her because he assumed it was a local woman. The next day, he went to the café again and saw her there again, but this time he decides to go up to the woman. The woman’s name is Lucy. They get along very well and there is an instant connection between them. They agree to meet at the café the next day for breakfast. Henry goes to the café as they agreed and after Lucy...

Thanks! 50 First Dates is a romantic comedy starring Adam Sandler and Drew Barrymore. Henry Roth (Sandler) is a veterinarian who admits to having difficulty with relationships. Lucy Whitmore (Barrymore) is an art teacher living in Hawaii. The two meet in a café one morning and hit it off, so they decide to meet again. The next day, Henry comes to the cafe and starts talking to her, but she doesn’t recognize him. A café waitress explains that Lucy has anterograde amnesia (which is actually referred to as “Goldfield Syndrome” in the movie) from a car accident that occurred several months ago. Lucy cannot recall anything between the day of the accident and the present. At night, during her sleep, all memories from the past day are erased, and she wakes up believing every day is October 13, 2002. Lucy’s father, Marlin, and brother, Doug, have to re-enact the same events every day so that Lucy doesn’t learn about her accident. If she knew, not only would she have to deal with her severe condition...

...50 First Dates Synopsis: Henry Roth (Adam Sandler) a playboy veterinarian met Lucy Whitmore (Drew Barrymore) an art teacher one morning at a café. Both Henry and Lucy enjoyed the company of each other, the next day they have met again but to Henry’s surprise Lucy couldn’t remember a thing. Later did Henry know that Lucy suffers from short term memory loss since the day Lucy and her father had an accident but Henry didn’t see this as a threat since he has already fell for Lucy, since then Henry would always do everything to make Lucy fall in love with him all over again each and every day. Reaction: In the movie 50 first dates Lucy suffered from anterograde amnesia according to my research it is when a person loses the capacity to form new memories (called Goldfield Syndrome in the movie) from an accident. This cause to damage her temporal lobe especially her hippocampal region and to forget a part of her memory of anything between the day of the accident and the present. Because she is incapable of converting short-term memories (can be called "working memory" which refers to our ability to hold on to information we are currently thinking about etc.) into long-term memories (in which data can be stored for long period of time). Lucy’s memories gained or experience prior to the accident is intact including people’s names, past events, where she lives, etc. In reality people who suffer from anterograde amnesia have trouble forming short-term memories after 10 minutes...

...before maturity to yield 8% compounded semiannually. The purchase price that provides this yield to maturity is $1052.42. The accounting view is that a period’s earned interest is the amount that gives the required rate of return on the bond investment. The interest payment after the first six months that would, by itself, provide the required rate of return (8% compounded semiannually) on the amount invested is 0.08 ϫ $1052.42 ϭ $42.10 2 The earned interest during the first six months from an accounting point of view is $42.10. The actual first coupon payment of $50 pays $50 Ϫ $42.10 ϭ $7.90 more than is necessary to provide the required rate of return for the first six months.7 The $7.90 is regarded as a refund of a portion of the original premium, leaving a net investment (called the bond’s book value) of $1052.42 Ϫ $7.90 ϭ $1044.52 This book value becomes the beginning investment for the next six months. You then apply the same line of reasoning to this amount in the second interval, and so on. Earned interest is always calculated on the book value of the bond after the previous coupon payment. For the interest rate, use the yield to maturity that was “locked in” on the bond’s date of purchase. Calculation of Earned...

...January 1, 2004 Federal Reserve Bank of Cleveland Arbitrage: The Key to Pricing Options by Ed Nosal and Tan Wang A rbitrage is the act of simultaneously buying and selling assets or commodities in an attempt to exploit a profitable opportunity. Although the idea behind arbitrage is fairly simple, it is quite powerful because the ability to exploit such opportunities is needed for markets to operate efficiently. Arbitrage ensures, for example, that buyers and sellers of foreign exchange can be assured that they are getting the “correct” rates for the currencies they are buying and selling independent of the national foreign-exchange markets they happen to be using. When markets are efficient, the prices of the objects being traded reflect their true value. And having prices reflect true values is important in decentralized economies, such as the United States, since it is the relative prices of various goods, services, and assets that determines how many will be produced, how they will be allocated, and how funds will be invested. If prices did not reflect true value, then the resulting allocation of goods, services, and investment would not be, in general, economically efficient. This Commentary focuses on a particular episode in which the recognition of an arbitrage “opportunity” made financial markets more efficient. It wasn’t a chance to make a profit that got noticed, it was the way the principles of arbitrage could be applied to the...

...a $20 gift card that can be applied to their next purchase at USSR. These gift cards expire on November 1 of the current year and cannot be redeemed for cash. The main issues involved in this situation are when to recognize the revenue associated with the gift cards and how to record the transaction. These issues are addressed by multiple sections of GAAP, including the following: * ASC 605-50-20 * ASC 605-50-25 * ASC 405-40-30 * ASC 460-10-25 According to ASC 605-50-25-7, a vendor may offer a customer a rebate or refund or a specified amount of cash consideration that is redeemable only if the customer completes a specified cumulative level of revenue transactions for a specified time period. Cash consideration, as defined in ASC 605-50-20, includes cash payments and credits that the customer can apply against trade amounts owed to the vendor. In this situation, USSR is offering its customers a specified amount of cash consideration in the form of gift cards, which are only redeemable if the customer spends over $100 during the month of August. ASC 605-50-25-7 also specifies that the vendor – USSR – shall recognize the refund obligation as a reduction of revenue based on a systematic and rational allocation of the cost of honoring refunds earned and claimed to each of the underlying revenue transactions that result in progress by the customer toward earning the refund. The amount of revenue reduction the company should realize should be based on the...
