...as a valuable method of promoting reflective practice in nursing and it can be used as a tool in developing curriculum content’ (p770). The Reflective Cycle of Gibb’s (1988) (appendix 1) will be used as a framework to conduct this assignment. My reasoning for choosing Gibb’s can be explained by [anon] (2006) ‘Gibb’s reflective cycle is fairly straight forward and encourages a clear description of the situation, analysis of feelings, evaluation of the experience, and analysis to make sense of the experience’. The assignment will also be organised into sections based on the reflective cycle. Pseudonyms will be used to maintain anonymity and confidentiality in accordance with clause five of the NMC (2004). The critical incident which I have chosen is an inappropriate assessment and application of mouth care in a pre-operative patient. ‘Oral assessment is required in planning effective care, and that the incidence of oral complications was reduced by the frequency of care’ Ginsberg (1961) cited by Mallett, J and Dougherty, L (2000 p361). I have chosen this as I found that mouth care is a valuable skill to perform on a NBM patient, and the appropriate assessment will reduce a patient’s discomfort. The managerial concepts I have chosen will appropriately explain my reasoning for implementation of this into practice. A full account of my critical incident can be found in appendix 2. Naylor (2004) cited by Mullins, L (2005) states...

JournalDevelopment Framework in the Malaysian Automotive Industry: Proton’s Experience Supplier of Economics and Management 2(1): 29 – 58 (2008) ISSN 1823 - 836X Supplier Development Framework in the Malaysian Automotive Industry: Proton’s Experience RASHID ABDULLAHa*, MAHARJAN KESHAV LALLb AND KIMBARA TATSUOc a University Putra Malaysia b Hiroshima University c Hiroshima University ABSTRACT In a dynamic market, firms need to evolve from traditional to strategic purchasing which aims to reduce the cost of the purchase and that might imply standardization of components, delivery time and levels of inventory. This effort will usually include key suppliers as joint problem solvers and with these problem-solving models to work with; the firm’s attitude towards suppliers may change from confrontation to trust and partnership. From the buyer-supplier relationship perspective, the procurement practice of the buyer is critical and acts as a window to nurture the supplier development effort. This article presents the result of a study on supplier development in the Malaysian automotive industry, which focused on PROTON, and its role in developing the suppliers’ relationships and development. This study indicates that PROTON and its suppliers’ development program plays a crucial role in developing and extending comprehensive support to its supplier’s firm such as supplier selection and appointment, development, match making, and promoting continuous...

...Management Accounting Research, 2000, 11, 349–362 doi: 10.1006/mare.2000.0135 Available online at http://www.idealibrary.com on Activity-based costing in the U.K.’s largest companies: a comparison of 1994 and 1999 survey results John Innes*, Falconer Mitchell† and Donald Sinclair* This paper reviews the results of two U.K. surveys of activity-based costing (ABC) in the U.K.’s largest companies. These provide an opportunity to assess the changes that have occurred in the ABC adoption status of companies over a recent 5-year period. For the ABC users, some comparative information is provided on the nature of the ABC systems in use, their designers, the uses to which they have been put and the levels of success and importance that participants attribute to them. For the non-users, the reasons for their lack of commitment to ABC are explored. c 2000 Academic Press Key words: activity-based costing; perceptions of success; survey. 1. Introduction Activity-based cost/management (ABC)1 has now maintained a high profile status as an important management accounting innovation for well over a decade (Bjornenak and Mitchell, 1999). However, despite a strong and durable advocacy (Cooper, 1988; Cooper and Kaplan, 1991, 1992, 1998; Kaplan, 1992), several reservations have been expressed concerning (a) the substance of its practical attraction (Bjornenak, 1997; Gosselin, 1997; Malmi, 1999), i.e. that it may be a fad or fashion, engendering a bandwagon effect rather than a genuine and...

...and those in the job market to continue working. The underlying principle is to give a reduction in income taxes to those who earn income from employment or self business to help offset the costs of entering the job market as opposed to living on social assistance. Offsetting costs such as medical and dental costs, work supplies etc. The cost of leaving social assistance and working is referred to as the welfare wall. The working income tax benefit was introduced at a low rate of $500 for individuals and $1,000 for families which considering the maximum net income cut-off amounts did not include the target audience of those who are on social assistance. Thanks to Canada's Economic Action Plan to help stimulate the economy during the Late 2000's Recession the Government provided what they called and enhancement and increased the benefit to $925 for individuals and $1,680 for families and increased the maximum net income levels to include more Canadians. The working income tax benefit is discussed in section 122.7 of the Canadian Tax Act and tax payers use Schedule 6 of the T1 tax return to calculate the benefit based on their earned income and calculates on a sliding phase in rate of 25% and phase out rate of 15%. Currently you must have earned income of at least $3,000 and maximum net income of less than $16,667 for individuals or $25,700 for families or with eligible dependents. The benefit has been used by close to 1 million Canadians and the Caledon Institute of Social...
