    It is essential for industries to be capable to evaluate their economic and financial condition and enhance their approaches to meet the market demands. The task of financial analysts is to utilize diverse estimating and capital budgeting procedures to justify the company’s behavior and be responsible for forthcoming decisions.

    The Sarbanes-Oxley (SOX) act was passed into law in 2002. It was created in response to major financial scandals that largely shook the public's confidence in corporate accounting practices. It was a significant response to improper record handling techniques. Under the law, corporate managers must assess whether they have sufficient safeguards to catch fraud and bookkeeping errors. There are consequences for not complying with the provisions of the act and there are certainly advocates and opponents of it. Price Waterhouse Coopers says "Without a doubt, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act is the single most important piece of legislation affecting corporate governance, financial disclosure and the practice of public accounting since the US securities laws of the early 1930s." (Pricewaterhousecoopers).…

    Risks are a part of everyday living and each and every job no matter how big or small the organization or company. As petty as it sounds, when waking up in the morning there is a risk of tripping on a shoe or a pair of pants that were taken off the night before. When cooking breakfast there is a risk of burning the bacon, or forgetting to set the alarm before exiting the house. While at work there is a risk of saying something funny but may be deemed inappropriate to a co-worker.

    This project is an effort to understand the main reasons for the long waiting times at our X-ray center and determine the possible solutions for eliminating the waiting times at our X-ray center. Based on the report the management can take a decision on the best possible approach for reducing the waiting time at our X ray center. This project is based on careful assimilation of process simulation towards improving the service level for the clients and management of County Hospital’s X-ray department. The management is concerned about proper utilization of available human and material resources, but also taking into consideration, the demands of its clients about reducing the waiting time required for getting X-ray process done. For getting an X-ray processed, clients have to wait at different work stations and lobbies for quite some time. The resources are also limited in terms of personnel who handle the FRONTDESK, XRAY LABS, DARK ROOMS and INSPECTION. Hence, to overcome this primary issue, our project first analyses the present scenario of X-ray process through flow charts and running single and multiple simulations, then proceeds towards designing a new process and its application into the system so as to achieve our goal.…
