There are four significant elements of financial management, “There are four basic financial statements. You can think of them as a set. They include the balance sheet, the statement of revenue and expense, the statement of fund balance or net worth, and the statement of cash flows.” (Baker & Baker, Chapter 4, 2011). Financial manager need to have a balance sheet to review or perform an audit so they can see the debt to income ratio for the organization they are financially responsible for. The statement of revenue and expense provide a clear financial outlook of the organizations financial situation during certain time periods. The significance of the statement of fund balance or net worth is to identify cash and property assets of the organization within a year or other period of time. Last but not least the statement of cash flow is proof of all of the profit by the organization during a certain period of time.…

An organization’s mission statement is a written declaration of its core purpose and focus, which remains unchanged over time. When properly crafted, a mission statement will serve as a filter of what is important and what is not. Which market the organization intends to serve and how, as well as the envisioned direction of the entire organization ("Businessdictionary.com", 2014).

Lewis once said “I have pleaded (labor 's) case, not in the quavering tones of a feeble mendicant asking alms, but in the thundering voice of the captain of a mighty host, demanding the rights to which free men are entitled”. John Lewis was an eloquent spokesman for working people throughout the United States (United States Department of Labor, 2013). He was born in Lowa on 12th February 1880. At fifteen years he found work as a miner in Illinois. He then jointed the United Mine Workers of America (UMWA) and eventually was elected branch secretary in 1911; Lewis left the mines to become an organizer for the American Federation of Labor (AFL). In 1917 he was elected vice president of the UMWA. Three years later he became president of what was then the largest trade union in America (Simkin J, 1997) .Lewis was a great labor leader who inspired millions to join America’s new industrial unions. The 1920’s were seen as a crisis period for the movement. The postwar prosperity coupled with completing their economic shift to mass production, left U.S bureaucratic firms in a dominant position. Workplaces therefore with large craft unions became overshadowed by workplaces with unskilled and unorganized industrial workers and the United Mine Workers was one such industrial union emerging from its leadership in 1924 where John Lewis became the next giant in history of the American Labor Movement. However in 1920’s some labor leaders viewed Lewis as a ruthless autocrat who was…
Euthanasia, formally known as mercy killing, is the act of intentionally causing the painless death of a sick person, rather than allowing that person to die naturally. In terms of a physician's actions, it can be passive in that a physician plays no direct role in the death of the person or it can be active in that the physician does something directly to cause the death (Yount, 2002). Euthanasia may also be formed into three types of act, which are voluntary, involuntary, and nonvoluntary. Voluntary involves killing the patient at his or her request. Involuntary occurs when the patient does not give consent, or refuses. Nonvoluntary is where the patient is not able to make the decision about their medical treatment so it is up to a third party to make the decision for them (Yount, 2002). Legalizing euthanasia would cause many complications because we are dealing with a very controversial issue that brings into focus some extremely powerful, conflicting, and competing values. Under the Canadian Criminal Code, active voluntary euthanasia is illegal and individuals can be convicted for 14 years for murder (Ogden & Young, 2000). Passive euthanasia has been legal because the courts have recognized the right of a patient to refuse and to terminate unwanted medical treatments. The question that remains today is whether legalizing active euthanasia in Canada could either benefit or harm not only the individuals involved, but also society as a whole.…
