    Accountability is important and should not be taken lightly. So many reasons accountability is important. Knowing where your soldiers are at all times helps to know what they’re doing, and what their interest are doing so. In case something happens and someone needs to know where a soldier is accountability comes into play. A good leader should always have accountability for their soldiers but it starts on the lowest level. Anything to be ready and knowing the job that needs to be done. Accountability is more than just knowing your soldiers in formation. Accountability knows that your soldier’s physical, mental, and spiritual needs are accounted for and taken into consideration. So they can be more functional as a unit, team, and be mission ready. Accountability is an Army and nationwide thing from the highest officer, to the lowest enlisted soldier. If something bad happens and you’re not able to get into contact with one of your soldiers their life, and also your life can be at stake. Deploying overseas is an even bigger thing. You should always be accounted for while you’re overseas, and have a battle buddy. A lot of soldiers now, here, don’t like the fact or thought of a battle buddy, but we train how we fight, and when we deploy that battle buddy might be the one who save your life. Responsibility and accountability are two of the main factor in being a successful soldier in today's Army. Accountability is a very important part of an enlisted and a NCO's job. The enlisted soldier is responsible for all items issued to him or her whether it is a weaponing’s clothes, a vehicle, or TA-50. The NCO's responsibility is to make sure that the soldier is accountable for the items and has eyes on these items when needed, so that he or she can report it to his or her, higher command.

    Salt Water Ltd is a large and successful manufacturer of engines. The company consists of two divisions: the Automotive Engine division and the Outboard Motor Division. Salt Water has recently acquired a new company which will become a third division. The new Couch division is a small manufacturer of lawnmower motors. It has been owned and managed by the one person for 40 years. The prior owner treated all employees as part of his family. The company was noted for the lack of a ‘them and us’ attitude between employees and management, and there was free and open communication between all staff. Unfortunately, Couch is not a strong performer; the lawnmower market is in decline and profits have slipped.…

    The Financial Reporting Council decided in 2002 that Australian would move to International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) in 2005. Prior to that, Australia had its own standard-setting processes. The introduction of IFRS in Australia replaced the original accounting standards and brought several brand new standards. Until now, Australia was the first country with a tradition of its own standard-setting to implement international accounting standards for general purposes. Therefore, the adoption is unexpected and controversial. This essay mainly focuses on the negative side of this accounting standard conversion, which points out a number of potentially serious problems that should be considered when IFRS has been adopted since 2005. The analysis is basically separated into four sections: the cultural influence, cost increment, impacts on domestic companies and impacts on the accounting policies. According to the analysis, conclusion can be reached that the adoption of IFRS has a great influence on Australian economy.…
