...TITLE PAGE SHARES AS A FORM OF FINANCING COMPANY BUSINESS A TERM PAPER ON COMPANY LAW (ACCT 718) AHMED II ABDULWAHAB HASSAN PGDAF/ADM/2011/2012/693 POST GRADUATE DIPLOMA IN ACOUNTING AND FINANCE DEPARTMENT OF ACCOUNTING AND FINANCE AHMADU BELLO UNIVERSITY, ZARIA AUGUST, 2012 INTRODUCTION A unit of ownership interest in a corporation or financial asset. While owning shares in a business does not mean that the shareholder has direct control over the business’s day-to-day operations, being a shareholder does entitle the possessor to an equal distribution in any profits, if any are declared in the form of dividends. Shares in a company represent ownership. This means when an individual buys shares in a company, they become one of the owners of the business. This entitles them to a share of the distributable profits of the company - the dividends. DEFINITION OF SHARE A share is a single unit of ownership in a corporation, mutual fund, or any other organization. A joint stock company divides its capital into shares, which are offered for sale to raise capital, termed as issuing shares.

It’s always a good benefit for one to be able to have an affordable health care with a continuous aim to keep the cost of health care from rising. Author Louis Gapenski states that cost behavior is the relationship between an organizations fixed costs, variable costs, and total cost (2012). Fixed costs will remain fixed but variable cost will change roughly in direct proportion to volume. Analyze the complexity of cost behaviors in health care organizations and describe how costs are classified according to their relationship with volume. When it comes to looking at cost behavior within the health care organization a great deal or majority of the cost goes towards hospital services such as building, equipment, salaried labor, and overhead, which are fixed over the short term (Roberts RR, Frutos PW, Ciavarella GG, Gussow LM, Mensah EK, Kampe LM, Straus HE, Joseph G, Rydman RJ., 1999). Hospital organization fixed costs includes but not limited to capital expenditures, employee salaries and benefits, building maintenance, and utilities (Roberts RR, Frutos PW, Ciavarella GG, Gussow LM, Mensah EK, Kampe LM, Straus HE, Joseph G, Rydman RJ, 1999).

...Introduction Coca-Cola Amatil Limited (CCL) is the Australasia regional anchor bottler of The Coca Cola Company. The company's Australian origins date back to 1904 as the tobacco company British Tobacco (Australia). Its first foray into soft drinks came in 1964 with the purchase of Coca-Cola Bottlers (Perth), and the company was listed on the Australian Stock Exchange in 1972. Soft drinks and snack foods gradually became the primary focus of the company, which was renamed Amatil Limited in 1977. The snack food operations were sold in 1992, and European operations were spun off into a new company, Coca-Cola Beverages, in 1998. Expansion into Asia continued, though Filipino bottling was eventually sold to San Miguel Brewery and parent The Coca-Cola Company. Its most recent purchase activity has been the acquisition of fruit producer and packager SPC Ardmona Ltd. Until May 2007, the company also operated the online music store, Coke Tunes, out of New Zealand. .
