...Lease Financing Lease is a contract between the owner and the user of assets for a certain time period during which the second party uses an asset in exchange of making periodic rental payments to the first party without purchasing it. Under lease financing, the lessee regularly pays the fixed lease rent over a period of time at the beginning or at the end of a month, 3 months, 6 months or a year. At the end of the lease contract the asset reverts to the real owner. However, in case of long-term lease contracts, the lessee is generally given the option to buy the leased asset or renew the lease contract. The three major types of leases are the operating lease, financial/capital lease and the direct financing lease. The operating lease is a short-term lease contract where the lessor bears all operating and repairing costs of the asset and the lessee pays periodic rental payments to the lessor, and where the lease is cancelable, and there is no bargain purchase option. Financial/capital lease is a long-term lease contract where the lessee bears all operating, repairing and maintenance costs, and makes periodic rental payments to the lessor. The lease is not cancelable and the lessee has the option for bargain purchase or renewal of lease contract at the end of the original lease period. In a direct financing lease, the lessor leases the asset by manufacturing or by purchasing from the manufacturer to the lessee directly and the lessee makes regular rental payments to the lessor...

...Memorandum To: DeLaune/Simonov From: Courtney Lancaster Date: October 15, 2013 Subject: History of the Auditing Profession Similar to all aspects of the accounting profession, the auditing focus in the business world has evolved considerably over its history. The main drive behind the changes has been new legislation and a strict enforcement standard which more times then not was influenced by the fraudulent activity delivered by corporate management. By the creation of oversight policies and standard setting entities, these countless scandals have shaped the accounting and auditing profession into what we know today. In 1986 the state of New York passed legislation in which the credentials regarding a Certified Public Accountant were formally acknowledged and recognized, thus creating the accounting profession itself. In 1913 the United State of America ratified the 16th amendment leading to the creation of income tax causing a spike in demand for accountants. While these changes in legislation were coming about and the profession itself was growing rapidly there was still no entity in the US that regulated the profession. In 1917 the first step to set a standard for the profession was put into action. The Federal Reserve Board and Federal Trade Commission requested that American Institute of Accountants produce a bulletin for a standardization of auditing procedures. A publication titled “Uniformed Accounting” was released shortly after as a first set of published...

...The purpose of the prospectus is to ensure that the company gives to the public a certain amount of information about its financial position when it is first floated and whenever it subsequently offers its shares and debentures to the public. It must fully and fairly disclose the relevant facts so the risk of investment can be assessed (Vanessa, 2011). Prospectus is a way to give the public a clear understanding of newly listed companies, the investing public should take time to read before investment. The providing of prospectus can also reduce the risk of fraud of companies as they need to disclose their companies’ information fully and fairly. From the Companies Ordinance, prospectus means any prospectus, notice, circular, brochure, advertisement, or other document which offering any shares or debentures of a company to the public for subscription or purchases, or calculated to invite offers by the public to subscribe or purchase shares or debentures. If the shares or debenture are offered to any section of the public, whether selected as members or debenture holders or as clients of the person making the offer or invitation, or in any other manner, it is to be regarded as an offer or invitation to the public(s 48A(1)). Thus, whether the document technically constitutes an offer or invitation to the public, it will fall within the prospectus provisions. The provision relating to prospectuses apply as the shares or debentures had been offered to the public by the...

...This Module is a Masters level module in Financial Management and Control. It introduces students to the interaction of accounting and finance with management in the strategic ‘where are we now, where do we want to be, how do we get there, and where are we now’ learning loop. This module concentrates on answering four key questions: • Where do companies get their sources of financial information for performance evaluation, • How do they evaluate financial performance, plan business strategies and make financial decisions • What they should do in order to effectively control and manage the financial resource, • How do they report the results and performance to all interested parties. It ought to go without saying that Masters level work will involve a significant amount of work on your part. Simply attending class sessions will not get you through this module. There needs to be a lot of student interaction with the material and a process of development through the module. My advice is to attend all the class sessions (experience shows that those who do not severely disadvantage themselves – i.e. FAIL) and to make use of the teaching staff as much as possible, but also to see ‘class’ as a way of bringing things together; a time or focus. The vast majority of the workload for this module must be outside of class contact time. You ought to be reading widely to get to grips with the methodology and techniques of the subject. You will find a mix of numerical...

...1) The iridium project was designed to create a worldwide wireless handheld mobile phone system with the ability to communicate anywhere in the world at any time. Iridium’s innovation was to use a large constellation of low-orbiting satellites and this could make the phones much smaller and the voice delay imperceptible.Dr.Leopard made a design in which the entire system would be inverted and only one gateway earth station would be required to connect mobile to landline calls to existing land bases telephone system. The general manager of the company believed in this project and viewed it as a potential symbol of technological prowess. The challenge also provided motivation for the engineers .In order to minimize exposure to financial risk, Iridium started as a project financed company. The 12 regional gateways made Iridium a global project and it made it easy to get regulatory approval to operate in 170 countries. Gateway owners were granted seats on the board of directors. Meetings were conducted between these 28 board members. Iridium also exposed Motorola in developing satellite technology that would provide significant expertise in building satellite communication systems and vast intellectual property. The design of Iridium network allows voice and data to be routed virtually anywhere in the world. They had excess satellites in the orbits which are ready to replace any unserviceable satellites. It ensured that every region of the globe is covered. Ground network is comprised...

PPC then integrated vertically into exploration and production of crude oil and marketing refined petroleum products, but horizontally into plastics, agricultural chemicals, and real estate development. They decided to restructure the company into a hydrocarbons-based company, concentrating on oil, gas, coal, and petrochemicals. They needed to decrease their overall risk and optimize their overall performance and would only be able to by collaboration and coordination among their refining and marketing network divisions. PPC were spending billions of dollars on capital expenditures and were expecting an increase in the next year. These expenditures were allowing for the company to process heavy Alaskan crude oil more efficiently and also provided good returns. In the next five years, the company was going to need to meet new environmental standards, which meant more spending increases. Along with these expenditures and regulations were expected higher growths because now the company truly could utilize and capitalize on their strength. PPC’s management and board are weighing out two alternative approaches in order to determine a minimum rate of return. They had to decide if a single cutoff rate based on the...

...However, some routes make more sense than others depending on the specific company’s situation and objectives. Typically, a new business begins with something very simple: an idea. Sometime the individual spends years developing and tweaking the idea, and other times it simply comes to them in an instant. However it comes, once it does the entrepreneur needs to begin turning that idea into a more tangible concept. This almost always requires capital, whether for manufacturing a product, developing software, or hiring outside consultants to help develop the idea. There are many ways to acquire this capital. According to TechAloo, 63% of start-up phase funding comes from self financing and friends and family, 22% from banks, 9% from state finance corporations, 3% from angel investors, and another 3% from venture capitalists (See Exhibit 1). Initially, the new business owner typically begins by investing his or her own cash and assets into the business. Savings...

...Financial Planning BA101 Kimberly Bernard What is financial planning for a business why is it important, and what can happen if not done accurately. Financial planning is simply planning for the future of a business to ensure there will be positive cash flow in the years to come. Financial management is essential because it will either make or break a business or company, if you start a business without putting a plan in affect and just start spending or making decisions this can be costly. Having a plan in place will help you set and achieve financial goals. A business’s priority when creating a financial plan should be accurate cash management. Accurate cash management will also help the business see if there could be the potential for a cash shortage during any particular time of the year. This is a crucial part of the plan, let’s just say a business is having an employee outing or event and they don’t have a financial plan in place, what will happened? The business can put them into debt or not have enough cash flow to fund the event, this would be an embarrassment for the business or they would have to find other means to funding the event like having the employees pay a percentage of the event. This would tell the employees one thing, that the company doesn’t have enough cash to even offer an employee outing or an event without the help of the workers, I know I wouldn’t want to work for a company that would ask for help for an event that they are planning.
