    Accounting statements and ratios provide a great deal of information about a company’s financial stability. Some of the concepts to be discussed in further detail include horizontal analysis, current ratio, quick ratio, and cash to current liabilities ratio. A horizontal analysis is used to compare data from two or more periods side by side.

    Occupational fraud is defined as the use of a person’s job for individual enrichment through the purposeful mishandling or misapplication of his or her employer’s capital or assets (Wells, 2005). Occupational fraud can have a serious impact with far-reaching consequences.

    The Shareholders are going to be interested in the financial health of the company so it will be important to focus on profit ratios and return on investments. When evaluating a company’s financial health it is important to evaluate all positive and negative financial instances. When I meet with the design crew, investors, and CEO I will suggest that we paint an honest picture of our financial health. In accordance with the SEC and Sox act, it is our fiduciary responsibility to divulge all financial information even if it is negative. With that being said it is also a good idea to elaborate on the good points. We have seen some dives in our profit outputs but it will be important to highlight what caused the decline. Our investments and expansion plan will outline how our profits should rebound and increase in the years to come. Points like the capital structure, liquidity, strengths, weaknesses, plans to improve in the future, and profit ratios compared to industry averages are all important topics to consider when presenting an annual report to stakeholders (Fraser & Ormiston 2007).…

    Before diving directly into the article from the Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) titled Governments to Report Liabilities Connected with Their Obligations to Clean Up Pollution (2006), one must first take a step back and take time to read, comprehend, and take to heart exactly what this organization stands for. Taken directly from their main web page under the tab labeled Education, the first thing seen in big, bold, blue letters is, “Due Process: The GASB Is Listening” followed by a definition of what listening means, “to hear with thoughtful attention”. When researching a little more into the GASB, it is easy to see how crucial listening truly is for them in order to fully accomplish their mission, which is basically to fully, and carefully consider all issues in regards to the protection of their constituents.…

    Capital punishment has long been on the chopping block within many forums in America. Most in favor will argue, when considering the most heinous and wicked of crimes, criminals committing these crimes should be put to death. Those opposed will always take the stance that capital punishment is unacceptable in a civilized society in that it is a cruel form of punishment. My stance is one of support for capital punishment in the capacity that it is a necessity in respect to the basic premise of the severity of punishment being weighed against the circumstances of the crime.…

    Autism Spectrum Disorder is a diagnoses for individual with a group of complex disorders of brain development. This disorder is characterized in varying degrees, by difficulties in social interaction, verbal and nonverbal communication and repetitive behaviors. The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reports that 1 in 68 children are diagnosed as being on the spectrum, with boys being four to five times more likely to be diagnosed with autism than girls. As there is no cure for autism, research is on-going to help children and families to decrease the negative effects autism has on those with the diagnoses and this includes studies on medications. In the article, Cognitive Effects of Risperidone in Children with Autism and Irritable Behavior, the effects of the popular drug Risperidone is tested on children on the autism spectrum who also have irritable behaviors, such as attention deficit hyperactivity disorder or disruptive behavior disorders. The focus is on what question the authors are trying to answer by doing this research and what hypothesis is being tested and the concepts that were applied in this process. Other important aspects of this study include the statistical analysis employed in this studies, the variables used and the possibility more and/or different variables may have been used to enhance the outcome of the study. As with any statistical research study, there are going to be limitations. The fact that autism affects so many people, the better understanding we can gain about possible medications and therapies will be helpful to families and educators of people on the autism spectrum.…
