...Memorandum Changing your company’s organization type can be very beneficial in your given situation. My recommendation is changing into an S-Corporation. The S-Corporation will allow you to be taxed at the level of the shareholders and it is not double taxed. You must have no more than 100 shareholders to be qualified as an S-Corporation. How becoming an S-Corporation would be beneficial Stock Turning your business into an S-Corporation would give you the option to sell shares of it to investors. This would help to fund your expansion. Ownership is transferable Should the owner of the company die, the S-Corporation can easily be transferred to another owner or to the officers in the corporation. The S-Corporation can continue for an unlimited span of time. Taxation: The S-Corporation is taxed at the level of the shareholders dependent upon which tax bracket each is in. This corporation is not taxed again at a corporate level. Business expenses can be written off and the S-Corporation could come with a self-employment tax break. This will help to lower the amount of income tax payable each year. Profit Retention: All profits would go to the shareholders. A business agreement can be drafted and profits can be distributing according to the agreed upon contract. Control: There would be a board of directors appointed to control the S-Corporation. If the owner would like to retain control of the company, the board of directors appointed can be family...

...LIT1 - Task 2 Mark J. Fortenberry May 9, 2015 LIT1 - Task 2 Company X has reported three situations that have occurred that require investigating. Since employment and hiring practices are a part of my duties here at Company X, I have been charged with the investigation into these situations. In the subsequent report, the laws that companies must abide by will be outlined and how these laws affects the outcome in each of these three situations. The Family and Medical Leave Act of 1993 is one that ties in heavily to the first situation. “The Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) provides certain employees with up to 12 weeks of unpaid, job-protected leave per year” (Solis, N.D.). This leave must be for the birth and care of a newborn, placement of an adoption, to care for an immediate family member, or for an employee that has a serious health condition. For qualification, an employee must have at least 12 months of continuous employment with 1,250 hours worked within that 12 months. This issue involves said Company X and an employee that will be identified as Employee A. Under the FMLA, both company and employee must meet the requirements under the law. As an example, Company X must have at least 50 employees, while in reality, the company has over 75 employees. Employee A needs to have worked for Company X for at least 12 months and at least 1250 hours within that 12 months; the employment length for Employee A has been 24 months and met the hourly...

...Lighting Lighting is an essential aspect of home furnishings that also makes interiors more pleasant and allows tasks and activities to be completed much more easily. Lighting energy and therefore, consumer cost, is a necessary consideration. Lamp is the technical term for what we call commonly a light bulb. A luminaire is the technical term for what is commonly called a lamp or fixture, which is a complete lighting unit. It includes the lamp holder, power connection, and any internal devices such as reflectors. Purposes of Lighting The purposes of residential lighting are: 1. Ambient lighting- needed to perform routine activities 2. Task lighting- needed to perform specific tasks such as reading 3. Decorative lighting- needed to create an aesthetically pleasing environment All three types of lighting are frequently combined in a space, and their purposes may overlap as required by the time of day or the uses of the room. Ambient Lighting- is also referred to as general lighting. It provides uniform light for general purposes but not enough for specific tasks. Ambient light can be direct or indirect. Direct- when direct light is used, nearly 90-100 percent of the light is directed toward the surface to be lit. The direct light shines directly downward from the luminaire. Downlights are fixtures that are installed on the ceiling or wall to cast light below. If...

...For 2 consecutive days the rats were habituated to the food pellets and the radial maze for 5 minutes each day. Next was the acquisition trials, this involved the rat being placed in the center platform of the radial arm maze and four of the eight arms were lit and no adjacent arms were lit. At the end of each lit arm was food and if the rat ate the pellet from the arm the arm was rebaited only one time. After the rat ate the second pellet in the arm, the light was turned off and there was no more food in that arm. The trial would only last for 10 minutes or until 8 pellets were collected. They recorded errors, which were entries into unlit arms, choice accuracy, and the arms the rat chose to enter.

For the taxes part chicks were left to face each other, a mirror, sheet of paper (similar colour to theirs), another chick and another chick separated by a cardboard, if the chick walked towards any of them a positive reading was recorded. The kineses part of the experiment was done by placing the 1-2 day old chicks alone in the dark, alone in a lit box, facing a mirror and facing another chick then the average chirp rate was measured as an indication of how stressed they were. The results for the taxes part indicate that the chicks want to be close to one another and have well-developed eye-sight and hearing. Furthermore in the Kineses part of the experiment the chicks that faced one another, faced a mirror, was in a lit box was less stressed than the ones that were left in the dark. In conclusion, chicks don’t want to be alone and have excellent eye-sight and hearing to accomplish this task.

...Samuel Jacobson Comp Lit Prof. Sargent 2/27/15 Pros and Cons of a Computer Oriented Society Computers have vastly improved almost every aspect of human lives. Computers are capable of almost anything now a days and this power is taken great advantage of by our society. Computers make communication very easy and accessible to everyone. Any time in the day access to a computer and the internet is available. The textbook references the ability to bank online, which saves a lot of time for citizens who would normally have to drive to a bank and wait in line. These tasks can be done in minutes or less with computers. The textbook also references going to school online, shopping online, designing products and being able to test them with software capable of using physics. The pros are increasing in number every day because we advance so much in computers. Almost everything about a computer is a positive thing because they make tasks in daily life so much easier. Although there are so many positive things about computers there are a few cons that come along with those. There are security risks within networks and people attempt to hack into information that does not belong to them and steal it. This information includes bank account info and identity theft is possible through infiltration of a network using computers.

...Palace of Fine Arts in San Francisco for the first time. We took the trip to show our foreign exchange around and show her the beauty of our area and I was surprised to find myself in amazement not only that I did not rush to see such a thing before now, but the beauty and history of the building (pic. 1) as well. In the center is a large dome topped structure surrounded by intricate detailed carvings beautiful landscaping surrounds the front towering columns, stretching from each side is 200 feet of shorter square buildings with columns across the front. (pic. 2) As you stroll through the structure you see detail and beautiful carving in every corner and every inch, (pic 3) in the main Dome, when you look up, you’re surrounded by statues of angels looking down at you from every direction making you feel like you’re the center of their attention. (pic. 4) In the year 1915 architect Bernard R. Maybeck was given the task of creating a Palace of Fine arts for the Panama-Pacific International Exposition, its sole purpose was to exhibit works of art. Bernard R. Maybeck used a classicism approach and chose the theme of a Roman style ruin with a romantic feel and Greek decoration. When Maybeck presented his sketch on a brown piece of paper to the commissioners they were dazzled by the exhibition hall, its colonnade, and its rotunda. Our reading this week stated Whenever the desire is to combine function with form that only a great artist can bring to architecture, conflicts inevitably...

...Task 2 Lit 1 Mallory Carter Situation A. Employee A has been with Company X for two years. Employee A's spouse gave birth prematurely to twins. He requested leave to be with his spouse, which was granted. Employee A has been on leave for 11 weeks, and has asked to return to work, and to be paid the withheld salary from his 11-week leave. The previous department manager left the company during Employee A’s leave. The new manager has agreed to Employee A’s return to the previous job, at the previous rate of pay. But the manager has denied the request for the 11 weeks of withheld salary. -Employee A will not be able to retain any of his pay while he was on leave for the 11 weeks. Under the FMLA, the employer is not required to pay the employee while on unpaid medical leave. The FMLA covers unpaid leave for up to 12 weeks. It also requires that the employee be reinstated to its previous position without problems, which was taken care of. Even though there is a new manager they are following the procedures under the FMLA and will not be penalized for not paying employee A’s salary. Employee A should have looked in his leave further before deciding to take leave. There was not a violation of the FMLA. Situation B. Employee B is 68 years old and has been with Company X for 42 years. During the annual performance review last month, it was determined that Employee B was doing “above average” work in the department. Employee B was denied a promotion due to age. A co-worker...
