The Case

The prosecution, through the undersigned Public Prosecutor, charges Romulo Takad with the crime of violation of R.A. 6539 (Anti-Carnapping Act) by alledging that the accused, with intent to gain and without the knowledge and consent of the owner, did, then and there willfully, unlawfully and feloniously take, steal and drive away a Kawasaki motorcycle with sidecar, colored black, bearing plate No. TU-9952, with a value of P80,000.00 belonging to Bayan Development Corporation, represented by Zenny Aguirre, to the damage and prejudice of the latter. Romulo Takad, accused, denied this charge on his testimonies. The accused opted not to avail of his right to a preliminary investigation and not having executed a waiver of Article 125 of the Revised Penal Code.

The Facts

On March 2003, a KASUNDUAN was made between BAYAN DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION and SCCPPTODA 2 (SAMAHAN). Pursuant to the Kasunduan, a loan to be paid in regular installments amounting to P80,000.00 was extended to Ma. Teresa Lacsamana on May 2003 and such must be used to buy a tricyle which the former did and was actually granted the Certificate of Registration of a tricycle in her name.

    In regards to our case no. 210204 Justin King v. Anheuser Busch Companies, Inc. I find Contributory Negligence to be the appropriate Affirmative Defensive action. Mr. King exacerbated his injury when he took it upon himself to loosen the wires, to his own admittance. Justin King was also swerving and/or switching lanes frequently perhaps not paying attention or distracted by his recent Music Record deal signing with MCI Records. I chose to say contributory negligence because we cannot deny that cases of beer were not properly secured in our vehicle, proving that it was some percentage of our own default.…

    The Church of the Virgin Virtual Madonna (C.V.V.M.) was founded in 2003, following the death of singer/ songwriter Madonna. Although you can trace the roots of this institution back to the 1980’s, it was not until Madonna died from a gunshot wound that the religious aspect of this organization was formed. “Disciples” (followers) of her work believe Madonna to have entered the non-material plane of the internet and become a supreme being. Following her death, the community expanded and adopted a religious text, Madonna’s Sex, along with readings from Kinsey, Masters and Johnson. The community, as a whole believes themselves to be followers of a religion and part of a religious community.…

    When doing a financial report the general goals are pretty obvious. A financial report is a way to show the intake and the out take of a business such as the rent of a building which would be the debit. The credit would be an example of common stock. As I was working on Appendix C I had to stop and think about debit and credit and what they actually meant. Debit is a source of an outcome, which means that money is being removed. Credit is when there is income being added. The steps that I took in the recording process were to first start with number one which was stockholders invested $25,000 cash in exchange for common stock. When reading the problem I noticed that the stockholders invested 25000 cash in exchange for common stock, which to me it meant that there was no debit happening here, it was a credit for common stock. As I keep going through the numbers there were some spots that confused me such as hired secretary for 2000 a month and paid secretary 2000 a month. I decided that the hired a secretary for 2000 was for credit because a secretary is a needed service, but I also added it in the debit because the secretary is being paid which means money is leaving. After going over every number problem I realized the steps that I am taken have to really be considered because with each step the answer is in really reading each number and searching for specific words such as received, or purchased. I think the principle of accounting do support the steps I have taken, because reading and looking for specific signs can help make things easier to understand, which is a very good thing when doing anything financially.…

    Date: 4-11-09Re: Case 3-5A.Discuss the concept of relevance. In your opinion, would the amounts reported by U.S. companies for property, plant, and equipment be more or less relevant than the current cost amounts reported by companies in England, Mexico, or elsewhere?RelevanceInformation is relevant when it influences the economic decisions of users by helping them evaluate past, present, and future or by confirming or correcting their past evaluations. Relevance is also affected by materiality. Information has the quality of relevance when it is 'capable of making a difference in the economic decisions of users by helping them evaluate the effect of past and present events on future net cash inflows (predictive value) or confirm or correct previous evaluations(confirmatory value), even if it is not being used' (FASB, 2005: 2; FASB 1980: 37). In the IASB framework information has the quality of relevance 'when it influences the economic decisions of users by helping them evaluate past, present of future events or confirming, or correcting, their past evaluations' (IASB, 1989: 24). Both frameworks thus say that accounting information is relevant if it has the capacity to make a difference in a decision. The FASB requires information to be capable of making a difference in the economic decisions of users 'even if it is not being used'. However, to be relevant the IASB definition additionally requires that information is used i.e. influences the decision maker in making economic decisions. Another small difference between the FASB and IASB framework is the FASB framework explicitly mentions that relevant information has to have predictive and feedback value, while the IASB uses these terms implicit in its framework. 'The predictive and confirmatory roles of information are interrelated (IASB,1989: 27).…

    I was overwhelmed with excitement, as I was about to witness my first small claims trial in the reputable small claims court located at 7765 Hurontario Street, Brampton, which was repetitively used as a source in the small claims textbook. To my surprise there were two buildings, the large one being the criminal court while the smaller one was the small claims court. These seem to be the main cause of confusion for many people including myself. This is because the address for small claims on our books was actually for the criminal courts instead. I failed to understand why they could not create a way to distinguish them. When I finally arrived at the small claims court, I was enthusiastic to see the endless amount of people…

    ). The sources of US Law are important because they secure our general wellbeing, and guarantee our rights as natives against misuse by other individuals, by associations, and by the administration itself. We have laws to accommodate our general wellbeing. These exist at the neighborhood, state and national levels, and incorporate things such as laws that originate from the Bill of Rights in the U.S. Constitution, that ensure our fundamental opportunities like the right to speak freely, religion, and the press. Laws that shield us from segregation in light of our race, sex, age, or due to an incapacity. In the United States, the Constitution is a definitive wellspring of the law.

    As the gavel sounds there is silence in the courtroom. The Judge has made his final decision, and the outcome is life without the possibility of parole. The courtroom is filled with mixed emotions and the prosecution and family have a sense of justice, although the family of the perpetrator feels anguish. Criminal court is perceived as the place of justice where criminals are punished and the victims get closure. This is a simplistic view of how the criminal justice system works; in reality the process is more complicated.…

    I am writing you this memo in compliance with the mandatory mediation requirements issued by the court. I would first like to state to you my stance in this case. I have been dealing with this particular vendor for about six months now. The business relationship started after my wife and I visited Mrs. Doe’s Sunday school class in Huntsville, Alabama. I was there in support of my wife and to explore the Christian religion, but in small talk Mrs. Doe informed me of her family’s grape vineyard and the value of a certain natural product they produced. My natural herb store was in need of some new products for my customers so I agreed to try Mrs. Doe’s product in my store.…
