The abstract is typically a short summary of the contents of the document.] Khalila Merriman 8/21/2012 During a company’s expansion process across international waters, decision makers must employ tact and advice concerning the actual business dealing within the host country. The company must consider the political, social and economic situation of the host country. Usually companies employ the help of local peoples to guide them though the integration process because cultural adaptation is key to creating a long lasting business service partnership, purchasing properties and supply chain management. (MUSE, 2012). As politics plays a large role in a company relocating, countries can also apply tariffs which allow local workers to have an advantage fearing the newer foreign company starting a monopoly. When companies are reviewing countries for expansion the issues which first must be concurred are the internal and external issues surrounding the move. Internal factors involve the country’s infrastructure, its growth rate and state of development. The external issues involve the readiness of local merchants to conduct business and the availability of and amount of global aid or the accessibility of the transfer of said necessities.

...Intellectual Capital Volume 9, No. 1, 2008, pp. 5-24 Verna Allee verna@vernaallee.com Published in Journal of Intellectual Capital Volume 9, No 1, 2008 pp. 5-24 Page 1 of 21 Introduction One of the most important and challenging questions in working with intangibles is, “How do we convert intangible assets such as human knowledge, internal structures, ways of working, reputation, and business relationships into negotiable forms of value?” Value network analysis offers a way to model, analyse, evaluate, and improve the capability of a business to convert both tangible and intangible assets into other forms of negotiable value, and to realise greater value for itself. Underlying this approach is an understanding that intangible, but nonetheless strong and dynamic relationships, and the intangible assets that make up and have an impact on those relationships, are the foundation of any successful business endeavor. Indeed, the future success of a company or organisation as a whole depends on how efficiently a company can convert one form of value into another. An example of value conversion occurs when an intangible asset such as professional expertise is converted into a more negotiable form of value, perhaps in the form of consulting services. The conversion dynamic also applies to value realisation. An example is when a tangible value input, such as purchased market intelligence reports, is converted into a nonfinancial asset of increased levels of marketing competency. A...

...uncertainties and any applicable management assumptions. Results of auditing procedures that indicate the financial statements or disclosures could be materially misstated or that the auditing procedures need to be significantly modified. Circumstances that cause the auditor significant difficulty in applying auditing procedures he or she considers necessary. Other findings that could result in modification of the auditor’s report. Compliance of Auditing Standards and Audit Documentation – a must for all practice units satisfy any applicable legal or regulatory requirements for records retention. Internationally the norm is assemble the final audit file and submit it for archiving within 60 days from the date of our audit report. The PCAOB standard has shortened this period to 45 days. 51 The auditor would also need to adopt procedures that enable him or her to gain access to the documentation throughout that period. One way for auditors to accomplish this is by creating a policy to maintain electronic documentation. One needs to bear in mind that archiving needs to be done in a format that ensures its compatibility with newer versions of audit software or by retaining older versions of such software and, if necessary, the hardware on which it runs. Also, working papers for a specific audit engagement are assembled in a separate audit file. • • Conclusion 52 Auditors in India will have to gear themselves up to meet the new...

...9-603-062 REV. OCTOBER 29, 2002 DOROTHY LEONARD DAVID KIRON Managing Knowledge and Learning at NASA and the Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) Downsizing at NASA over the last decade through attrition and buyouts has resulted in an imbalance in NASA’s skill mix.1 — The President’s Management Agenda, Fiscal Year 2002 By the end of this decade, many of the most experienced scientists and engineers at NASA and JPL are going to retire. If we don’t have systems in place to retain more of what they know, our institution is going to suffer. — Jeanne Holm, Chief Knowledge Architect for NASA In the spring of 2002, Jeanne Holm, Chief Knowledge Architect for the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) and its Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL), was giving a tour of JPL. Stopping at a viewing stage above JPL’s mission control center, Holm explained the growing need for knowledge management at NASA: Almost 40% of JPL’s science and engineering workforce is currently eligible for retirement. In just four years, half of NASA’s entire workforce will be eligible. Many of these people are the most experienced project managers—the people who worked on Apollo (the mission to the Moon) and built the first space shuttle. Yet, we have few programs designed to bring their wisdom into our institutional memory. In the past 10 years, the budgets on our missions have been radically reduced, missions have multiplied ten-fold, and our scientists and engineers have been pushed...
