...Client Understanding Paper Judy Blackman ACC/541 August 1, 2011 Kenneth Quirk client understanding 1 I want to thank you for the opportunity to work with you and your organization on this important project. As I was analyzing the papers provided, I realized that additional information was needed. It was brought to my attention that you are unclear about why the additional information was requested on the adjusting lower cost of market inventory on valuation, the capitalizing interest on building construction, the recording of gains or losses on asset disposal, and the adjusting goodwill for impairment. The adjusting lower cost of market inventory on valuation is specified in Accounting Research Bulletin No. 43 (ARB No. 43). Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 34 is the statement, which deals with capitalization of interest as part of the cost of the asset. SFAS No. 144 addresses the reporting and accounting for the impairment of the disposal of long-lived assets (Federal Accounting Standards Advisory Board, n.d.). New rules for the accounting for goodwill has been addressed in SFAS No. 142. I will be explaining each of these items in full detail. I will include the accounting principles and practices in hopes of improving your organization's practices and knowledge from this analysis. Adjusting lower cost of market inventory on valuation The lower-of-cost or market (LCM) is defined by “a basis whereby inventory is stated at the lower...

...T Special problems of Asian patients have considerable impact on diagnosis and treatment, and the number of persons of Asian ancestry seen in primary care in the United States is increasing. Knowledge of how to provide optimal care despite language barriers, low socioeconomic status, different health beliefs and practices, and medical issues unique to this heterogeneous group is crucial to competent health care. with Asian patients include language barriers, low socioeconomic status, traditional health beliefs and practices, and epidemiologic issues. This article presents three case studies that illustrate how these problems can affect the health care of Asian patients, and describes ways to deal with them constructively. We also discuss what diseases are more common and what conditions have unique clinical aspects in this population. Asians: The fastest-growing minority Asians and Pacific Islanders are the fastest growing ethnic minorities in the United States, and are predicted to number more than 17 million by 2010.1 This heterogeneous population is from many cultures and speaks many languages—the 1990 US Census identified 25 distinct Asian ethnic groups (TABLE 1).2 Due to space limits, this article focuses on cultures more populous in the United States: East Asian (China, Japan, Korea) and Southeast Asian (Vietnam, Cambodia, Thailand), but recognizes that cultures differ widely within and among these countries.
