...Anna Camille C. Fabila Topic: Zoning and Appraising the Value of an Industrial Property Learning Objectives: * To know about zoning an industrial property and its types * To be familiar with appraising an industrial property ZONING As we all know, zoning is the division of the city into districts or zones and prescribing regulations for the use of each district or zone. Zoning is intended to regulate the use of private land for the common good. It establishes that the interests of private property owners must be balanced against the interests of the public. A major purpose of zoning is to put land to the use for which it is best suited. Of course, determining the best use for land is not always easy. Some land is best left to be cultivated because of its unique soil characteristics. Other land may be ideally suited for commercial development because it is located near a major highway. Other land, located near a railroad or airport, for example, may be prime land for an industrial park. Agricultural or open space uses may be the best for lands located in a flood plain. Zoning can be important in attracting business and industry to an area. Sufficient good land should be zoned for business and industry that is uniquely suited for business and industry and has adequate access and public facilities. INDUSTRIAL ZONING There are three types of Industrial-zoned properties: CI, LI AND GI. A simple comparison of these three zonings is impossible, however...

...resolution); Sample Quarterly Report (shows revenues and expenses of a particular building, address). STATEMENT OF WORK Project Name: Wild Wood Apartments June 21, 2014 • History: The Wild Wood Apartments are made up of 20 different complexes in Washington, Oregon, California and Idaho with each complex containing from 10 to 60 separate apartments. Leases are from 6 months to a year and the company’s practice is to hire one of the tenants to run the complex, collecting rent, conducting repairs, etc. The company requires a quarterly report to track the lease occupancy, rent payment, maintenance, and revenue and expenses; all of which is done in paper form. The forms are considered time consuming by the property managers, and the corporate office has concerns over their accuracy. A centralized database is being considered to simplify and better manage this data. • Scope: The contractor will include hardware, website, software and data storage support for the headquarters and all property offices that belong to Wild Wood Apartments. The main storage for the data will be offsite and the contractor is responsible for maintaining it. • Constraints: The contractor and the headquarters office of Wild Wood Apartments would have access to all the data, individual managers of the property would only have access to their particular site’s data. The contractor is not responsible for internet connectivity beyond the boundaries of the company’s properties. • Objectives: The objective...

...incur additional expenses a lot for the corporations. However, it seems that currently, carbon tax is the only assessable way to control the pollution and to protect our environment. An initial fixed carbon price will provide businesses with a stable and predictable platform to transition to a ‘cap and trade’ emissions trading scheme that will be linked to international carbon markets[3]. This will give businesses time to understand their carbon liability and begin the transformation in a prospectus way. The following sections of this report will review some significant strategies and effects of carbon tax on Stockland. In addition, the study also examines about the impact of ETS on the company’s income statement and financial statement position (also known as B/S). The final part of the report will focus on the necessity of the carbon tax in respect of the government. 1.1Company overview Stockland is one of the largest Australian property development groups, which was founded in 1952 as a residential developer.

...MS Access 2003 Introduction to Data Base A database can help you enter data easily, find it quickly, use it to create labels or mailings, and summarize it in printed and online reports. Benefits of Using a Database A database is much more than just a list or table. It gives you true command of your data, enabling you to retrieve it, sort it, analyze it, summarize it, and report results in moments. It can combine data from various files, so that you never have to enter information twice. It can even make data entry more efficient and accurate. A key benefit of Database is avoiding the complications of multiple lists. Let's say that you're the secretary of a large hiking club. You have a list of recycling volunteers, a list of holiday party volunteers, addresses for newsletter labels, a membership list, and so on. Suppose that a club member, who appears on a number of lists, changes her e-mail for the second time this year. With only a set of lists, you'd have the tiresome job of changing that information everywhere it occurs. With a well-structured database, you'd have to change it only once. The database takes care of everything else. If you're just working with 10 or so items, then you'll probably want to create a simple list, perhaps as a worksheet in Microsoft Excel or a bulleted list or table in Microsoft Word. If your data is more complex, or changes frequently, then an Access database gives you an advantage. Relational Data base & MS Access Relationships...
