...1. What are the major issues in this case? What should Elizabeth Ryan do? The major issues of the case are employee dissatisfaction, hygiene, employee conflict, poor management, interpersonal relations and customer dissatisfaction. It can be clearly seen from the major issues why this particular clinic is not doing well. Elizabeth Ryan needs to change and organize the clinic operations. The management structure is not well defined, the first thing Elizabeth Ryan in management change should do is to define and properly state the formal chain of command between different levels of authority, for example based on experience the senior and junior technicians role can be established. She needs to revamp the clinic’s marketing strategies and start advertising its services. Running a brand solely on word to mouth marketing is not effective as well as efficient. One of the difficult responsibility she needs to deal with is her problem employee Moore, which is leading to productivity issue, morale problems, poor quality of treatment and customer dissatisfaction, which is turning out to be the most pressing issue of all and it is also clear that it will be impossible to go ahead with other changes until this one is dealt with. Elizabeth Ryan will have to raise her employee Gulford’s morale, as she is the one who is handling all the heavy workload. By resolving the employee conflict above, she can improve the work environment and raise the clinic’s performance and ultimately customer...

...Solution to question 9-37 i) The risks associated with the current method of accounting at Frankincents are as follows: The owner Gaboria Frank relies solely on Norma a part time bookeeper, that works two days a week with minimal or no supervision. The owner trusts the bookkeeper completely and the firm does not encourage control practices such as separate passwords and supervision Norma has developed the systems all by herself and is the only one who understands the nature of the software used. As the business owner, Gaboria should be aware of the systems put in place and should also consult his accountant before the implementations of the systems Only Norma is responsible for the complete accounting function and its activities, such as accounts receivable, disbursements, payroll, etc. There is no segregation of duties, and even though in small firms segregation of duties is not always possible, there is no override of control by the owner, giving the incentive and the opportunity for fraud. Additionally, Norma being a part-time employee may have the incentive and pressure to manipulate and increases the risk for fraud. ii) Being a small business it is not always possible to have segregation of duties and the owner, Gaboria Frank should personally perform operational and clerical activities such as accounts receivable, cash disbursements and payroll. This will give stronger control on activities that have high inherent risk and lower the opportunity and risk of fraud...

...Maria Marrocchi Chapter 14 Questions 1. The advantages of a partnership is the fact that you are only taxed once and it is easy to create. However there is unlimited liability incurred by each general partner that normally restricts the growth potential of most partnerships. 2. Partnership accounting differs from corporate accounting in the sense that there are various capital accounts with the partners. They is usually a different way to handle each capital account based on the contract they agreed on. Accounting procedures are standard for assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. 3. The capital accounts convey the method and procedures in which it states the method in which profits and losses are to be allocated. 4. An S corporation will essentially be taxed the same way as a partnership. It does not face double taxation and the owners are not liable unlimitedly. A subchapter C corporation 5. A general partnership avoids double taxation and it is easy to create. However, there is an unlimited liability for the partners. An LLP is almost exactly the same as a general partnership however; the partners have a significant reduction in their liability. In an LLC, it is classified as a partnership for tax purposes but the owners bear all of the risk only on their investments. 6. Articles of partnership are a legal covenant that can be oral or written in which it forms the central governance for a partnership’s operation. The document contains the financial arrangements...

...Note that there are exceptions to this, since a small number online schools requires the students to be registered with the school board and that the student to have an annual evaluation required by the state. Attendance of 180 days is required for the school year. Here is the caveat. When we first started homeschooling we registered with an umbrella school. When I called a couple of universities to request information on dual enrollment, I realized that my sons were no considered homeschoolers. Homeschooler who are registered with the home education program are allowed to dual enroll with no questions asked, as long as they meet all the requirements. However, since my child was under this "umbrella" school and the school did not have an agreement with the university, my children were not allowed to dual enroll. Luckily, they were young enough to correct the problem and I changed their status in time to allow them to dual enroll with the local...

...games and 3 repeats every day, but it doesn't matter as long as you get it done. Try to keep some separation (24 hours+) between the first and second time you attempt a game. Repetition is crucial - after you have done a lot of games a lot of times anything they throw at you will seem elementary and routine. LR: Pretty simple really. Do the appropriate LRB section and then work through the corresponding chapter in Kaplan Mastery/Big Orange Book. I generally reviewed the LRB section thoroughly the first time, and then just read the summary of points and strategies at the start of the question set to refresh myself after that. Do up to 10 problems at each sitting and monitor which question types give you the most trouble. Review those questions heavily. If you're really motivated, cut out particularly troublesome questions for later review. I found that writing out explanations for question types I struggled with helped immensely. RC: This is the most difficult section to improve on. You have to develop a feel for what the passage as a whole is conveying while making sure not to miss small details...

...Steps 1-3 – The Problem Identification Stage Step 1 – Review the case and identify the relevant facts Problem situations or cases often include extraneous information or irrelevant ‘stuff’. Therefore, when you are trying to find a solution to a situation or to answer a case question, the first step is to identify the key facts so that you can figure out what is going on before deciding how to answer or solve the problem. In advanced courses, this usually involves extensive research but in an introductory or foundation level course, you will typically only use the information in the case. However, to do well in any case study assignment, it is important to read the case carefully and also to make sure you fully understand what the assignment and/or case questions are asking for. As you review the case, this will help you to identify what you need to pay attention to and what to ignore. That’s what relevance means – eliminating ‘stuff’ and identifying the important facts in a situation. Let us assume that you have just read a case entitled XYZ company and are trying to answer the following question: What are the current challenges facing XYZ company? You must identify and list the key facts which, for the purposes of our example, are those listed below: * The government has recently deregulated the industry to stimulate competition. * Telecommunications advances have led to increasing internet use. * More and more users are comparison shopping on the...

...computer teacher at Garfield High School in downtown Los Angeles, California. To his surprise, the school lacked the computers he needed for the class, so he took an alternative position as a math teacher. In that first year of teaching, Mr. Escalante was confronted with many obstacles. The school was in the verge of loosing its operative certification; many students scored poorly in their academics, had problems with drugs or were involved in gang violence. As a new teacher, he constantly felt frustrated, with a sense of guilt for not inspiring his class to love math the way he did. Subsequently, and against all the odds, Mr. Escalante made a great contribution in the lives of students, and transformed the face of the College Board’s Advanced Placement Program® (AP®). Most...

...Pham Viet Anh, Dinh Trong Nhan Younger Buyers Challenge Luxury Retailers in Asia By Bettina Wassener The New York Times, November 18, 2009 Principle: The Three Fundamental Economic Questions Answering all three fundamental questions correctly is the very first condition to succeed in any economic attempts, varying from your small shop’s daily trades to big multinational contracts. These questions are: 1. What to produce and how much? 2. How to produce? 3. For whom to produce? For the first question, it includes two minor questions (what to produce and how much), however, it aims at only one target: our scarce resources’ problems. Mr. Greedy must consider WHAT he could exploit from his resources, WHAT his potential customers want and HOW MUCH he could produce. If he do the first puzzle well, Mr. Greedy would move on to the next one: HOW to produce. Well, our potential economist would solve this problem easily (thanks to our advanced technology). But now he comes to one big problem: How he could benefit from these products? He has to analyze and clarify a list of his potential customers who would satisfy him. This is the third fundamental economic question: FOR WHOM to produce (determining the potential markets). Now it’s time to drop the theoretical glasses and see something real. We have Zegna – the 99-year-old Italian luxury men’s wear company. Its retailers – “traditional, sedate, salon-like Zegna” appear in almost...

...Formulation of a PICO question and online defence of that question. Is the NHS Otoacoustic emission hearing screening (I) for newborn babies (p), more accurate in diagnosing hearing loss(o), compared with the Health visitor distraction test(c). The assignment aim is to formulate a PICO question, discuss and demonstrate the skills, in formulating evidence based practice (EBP) questions, using the PICO framework and defence of that question. The question above was formulated by the student utilising the PICO framework by (Sackett et al. 1997), which focused my enquiries, PICO is a mnemonic used to describe the four elements of a good clinical foreground question P for population, I for Intervention C for comparison, and O for outcome, as devised by (Sackett et al. 1997). According to Sackett et al. (1997) the process of enquiry occurring within practice, stimulates questioning and these enquiries can be posed as (EBP) questions. The inspiration for the (EBP) question was, based on practice experience, when clients asked how effective the Otoacoustic emissions test (OAE) method recommended by (United Kingdom. National Screening Committee, 2006) (UK NSC 2006), and how it compared with the, Health visitors distraction test (HVDT) (Great Britain. National Health Service patient choices, 2011). I became aware of a gap in my knowledge (Lai, 2009) proposes the ability to recognise issues in practice settings and translate into explicit questions to fill knowledge gaps, is crucial...
