Theories are described in Payne (2014) as generalized ideas that can describe our knowledge of situations and the world in which we live in an organised manner (p.3). Specifically in relation to social work theory, Payne (p.5) simply states it helps us do or understand social work. Nash, Munford & O’Donoghue describe how theory informs practice which in turn informs theory in action and describes it as a ‘map’ (p.15). Without being able to understand Social work, let alone do it in practice you would not assist the client and therefore is a key piece within the jigsaw of Social work.

...Reading 1.3-1: What is critical thinking? 1 Reading 1.3-1: What is critical thinking? The world of accounting has changed dramatically over the past 50 years. In 1965, the key skills expected of a new CGA could best be described as ―technical‖ — the application of accounting, auditing, and other related skills to the recording of transactions and the generation of financial statements. However, by the mid-1990s, the notion of competency-based assessment had replaced this older model of skills assessment. The development of a competency map identifying key skills required for the accounting profession indicated that a key skill is the ability to think critically. Simply put, critical thinking is a type of thinking that questions assumptions. The Critical Thinking Community at http://www.criticalthinking.org/ provides the following definition: Critical thinking is self-guided, self-disciplined thinking which attempts to reason at the highest level of quality in a fair-minded way. Critical thinking can be applied to any course in the CGA Program of Professional Studies. It entails the examination of those structures or elements of thought implicit in all reasoning, which consists of Purpose, problem, or question at issue Assumptions Concepts Empirical grounding Reasoning leading to conclusions Implications and consequences Objections from alternative viewpoints Frame of reference ―Critical,‖ as used in the term ―critical thinking,‖ relates to...

Introduction Aspiring entrepreneurs may have an idea about the type of fruit or vegetable product that they would like to make. This can come from seeing others successfully producing a food and wanting to copy them or from talking to friends and family members about products that they think they could make. However, an idea for a business is not a sufficient reason to begin production straight away, without having thought clearly about the different aspects involved in actually running the business. Too often, people invest money in a business only to find out later that there is insufficient demand for the product or that it is not the type that customers want to buy. To reduce this risk of failure and losing money, potential producers should go through the different aspects of running their business in discussions with friends and advisers before they commit funds or try to obtain a loan. This process is known as doing a feasibility study and when the results are written down, the document is known as a business plan. Conducting a feasibility study need not be difficult or expensive, but the most important aspects should all be taken into account to ensure that potential problems are addressed. These are summarised in the Feasibility Study Checklist in Appendix III and are...

...An Accountant's Measurement Primer! A primary function of accountants is to develop, implement, and monitor measures of economic resources, business processes and utilization of resources by such processes. Wide varieties of stakeholders use these measures in making a range of economic decisions about business organizations. Pension fund managers, as do stockholders and financial analysts, use accounting information reported by companies to assess the economic performance of those companies and form expectations of future performance. Production managers use accounting information to estimate the cost of products they produce and thus, the relatively profitability of producing more of some products and less of others. Executives use accounting information to budget economic resources among operating units. Stakeholder decisions generally have in common the objective of allocating scarce economic resources to their most productive uses, whether it is managers allocating organizational resources among subunits (or alliances of organizations) or capital owners allocating their capital among organizations (or portfolios of organizations). Consequently, it is vital for accountants to understand measurement concepts (theories) in order to achieve accounting's measurement objectives. We start with a working definition of measurement. Measurement is the assignment of numerals and other symbols to represent the magnitude of an attribute of a phenomenon. 2 A phenomenon is an object...

...Is the Fraud Act a Useful Tool in E-Crime Prosecution? Executive summary This paper sought to examine whether the Fraud Act 2006 could be a useful tool in the prosecution of e-Crimes. It turns out that crimes on the computer net works and other electronic forms have been prevalent for more than two decades without being successfully prosecuted in majority of cases. The Thefts Acts 1968 and 1978 had inadequacies to deal with the kind of offences possible on the electronic forms. Hence, to avoid continual amendments to Theft Acts which could not have retrospective effect, Fraud Act 2006 has been enacted with sweeping changes to enable prosecutions of e-Crimes. Fraud Act 2006 has removed the shortcomings of the Theft Acts within the context of e-Crimes. Although the Act is portrayed to be a little harsh on the one hand, in comparison with the Theft Acts, the Act is certainly equipped as a better prosecution tool to deal with e-Crimes, on the other..
