...MEMORANDUM TO: Professor John Eckroth DATE: 12/03/2013 SUBJECT: Project #2 – PPP Fashions, Inc.

The Referral Credit, once redeemed by the Existing Customer, has an impact on the future sales transaction; therefore, the company should record it as a reduction of revenue when the related revenue is recognized. The Referral Credit is recorded at the time earned when the New Customer makes a purchase. The company would recognize the expense as a debit to the Referral Credit expense account and credit the contra revenue account, Referral Credit Allowance. At the time the Existing Customer makes the purchase, the company will recognize the Referral Credit by debiting the Referral Credit...

Regardless of our backgrounds, our ideas of literacy often become deeply engrained as good or bad without much thought about to how these views have come to be.

Transaction (c): Office Supplies (debit), Accounts Payable (credit). Transaction (d): Delivery Expense (debit), Cash (credit). 4.

...Running head: LEGAL AND ETHICAL LEADERSHIP AND MANAGEMENT1 Leadership and Management Ayanna G Hawkins Argosy University Atlanta Professor Tebao March 11, 2015 Abstract Intellectual property is any product of the human intellect that the law protects from unauthorized use by others. The ownership of intellectual property inherently creates a limited monopoly in the protected property (Cornell University Law School, 2012). There are four categories that make up intellectual property. These include copyright, trademark, trade secrets and patent. There are numerous situations where intellectual property is compromised by users that do not follow guidelines regarding patent and trademark. In this paper, I will discuss how Normandale violated patent and trademark laws, while compromising their ethical and social responsibility. Introduction The legal system affords specific constitutional rights and safeguards for proprietors of property. Intellectual property (IP) includes creations used in commerce, such as inventions, works or art and literature, symbols and designs, and names and images (World Intellectual Property Organization, n.d.). The American Intellectual Property Law Association (AIPLA, 2015) explained that “federal patent, trademark and copyright laws and state trade secret laws” (para. 1) are the basis of IP protections and rights of owners. The AIPLA (2015) also noted, “In general...

Framework NAIL THE CONCEPTS Watch your CPA Review videos first – before working any assigned homework questions. The CPA Review industry says to watch a section of CPA Review video and then work the accompanying MCQs. This perspective stems from the old-school approach to the paper and pencil exam where you had to sit in a live classroom and learn from an instructor on weekends. Today, there is a smarter way to study. You don’t have to go to a weekend live course. You can fire up the laptop on a Tuesday morning and knock out two hours of material before you even brush your teeth. If you work MCQs in week one over your week one topic, guess what? You will work them again in week 5 or 6 when you review because you will forget what you learned. If you watch a...
