...facilitate courts in the interpretation of how terms are to be incorporated into a contract. Two common methods of contract term incorporation will be discussed further in both an electronic and non-electronic context. These are incorporation of terms by signature; and incorporation of terms by notice. Incorporation of terms by signature Contracts that require a signature for validity will, under common law (for at least traditional written contracts), assume that the signing party has read and agreed to all terms that are stated within the contract, regardless of whether the parties have in fact read the contract terms. This reasoning was established in the English case of L'Estrange v Graucob The High Court of Australia accepted L’Estrange v Graucob (L’Estrange) as good law in Australia in the case of Toll (FGCT) Pty Limited v Alphapharm Pty Limited (Toll). Macdonald argues that if signatures were to be recognised as sufficient in the incorporation contract terms for online contracts, Toll and L’Estrange, would be recognised as the applicable law for these online contracts, despite the clear distinguishing features between traditional contracts and online contracts. McCullagh, Little and Caelli, argue that electronic signatures are capable of being accepted as any signature on a traditional contract would. It is argued that electronic signatures,...

...6a6Management Control Research Wrap-up for the first two weeks! During the first two weeks the main goal was to provide a holistic overview and understanding about management control research. After these two weeks you should be able to: 1. Understand what are MACS (book, p. 5) + developed further in chapter 4 of the book. a. Agency theory: Organizations are a web of two-person contracts between owner (principal) and managers/employees (agents). MACS are used to monitor, control, and motivate the agents (e.g. incentive system) – owner’s position; b. Nerve center: Managers need (formal and informal) information to support their decisional, interpersonal and informational roles – manager’s position; c. Accounting symbolism: MACS are used in a ceremonial way: more symbolic than functionalistic. Can be used either to influence or persuade (offensively) or to a posteori justify decisions (defensively) – accounting’s position; d. Labor process: MACS are used to weaken and exploit workers (managers can both be victims and users of MACS) – workers’ position; e. Dialectic controls: Historical analysis and evolution / change based on tensions amongst organizational elements – managers and workers’ position. 2.

...Health benefits of jackfruit 100 g of edible jackfruit bulbs provide 95 calories. The fruit is made of soft, easily digestible flesh (bulbs) made up of simple sugars like fructose and sucrose that when eaten replenishes energy and revitalizes the body instantly. Jackfruit is rich in dietary fiber, which makes it a good bulk laxative. The fiber content helps protect the colon mucous membrane by binding to and eliminating cancer-causing chemicals from the colon. Fresh fruit has small but significant amounts of vitamin-A, and flavonoid pigments such as carotene-ß, xanthin, lutein and cryptoxanthin-ß. Together, these compounds play vital roles in antioxidant and vision functions. Vitamin A is also required for maintaining integrity of mucusa and skin. Consumption of natural fruits rich in vitamin-A, and carotenes has been found to protect from lung and oral cavity cancers. Jackfruit is a good source of antioxidant vitamin-C, provides about 13.7 mg or 23% of RDA. Consumption of foods rich in vitamin C helps the body develop resistance against infectious agents and scavenge harmful free radicals. It is one of the rare fruits that is rich in B-complex group of vitamins. It contains very good amounts of vitamin B-6 (pyridoxine), niacin, riboflavin, and folic acid.

...Case studies can be used in any academic discipline. The purpose of a case study is to provide a more thorough analysis of a situation or "case" which might reveal interesting information about that classification of things. For the business student, a case study could be done on a particular company; for the political science student a case study might concern a particular country or government/administration. Case studies could be written about individuals, such as how kids learn to read, for example, about organizations and their management practices, or the results of applying a computer science program or process to a problem. You might be trying to figure out how to solve the problem of illiteracy or environmental degradation. The sky is the limit. The key is to take your large problem and bring it down to the level of the individual or single unit. A case study is an analytical piece. It involves heavy research and application of theories, concepts, and knowledge commonly discussed in the field of study. It highlights common problems in the field and will illuminate those problems through the in-depth study of its application to one individual, one company, one government, or one of whatever you are studying. Most case studies are an attempt to solve one of these problems that are known in the field. Steps to Writing the Case Study 1) Determine what your case study will be about. Think about the problems you have discussed in class or you have come across in...

The Act governs the method in which the provisions in a contract are implemented and classifies the effect of a breach of contractual provisions.
