Yutaka Nakamura Case Summary
Yutaka Nakamura Case Study
Case Summary Yutaka Nakamura is a 44 year old Japanese man who works in the sales department of a large electronics firm. 4 years ago, Yutaka and his family (Son: Kenichi, Daughter: Yukimi and Wife: Chizuru) were sent to work in a key subsidiary in California. After becoming accustomed to living in the United States, Yutaka’s time was up and it was time for him and his family to return to Japan. Although Yutaka and his family enjoyed their life in America, they we’re all excited to go home. Unfortunately, their return to Japan did not go as smooth as they had anticipated. The kids, Chizuru and Yutaka each had their own particular problems in adjusting back to life in Japan. The kid’s main problem with the return dealt with their education. Even though Kenichi and Yukimi spent weekends in special Japanese school, they were still somewhat behind in several key areas. In particular, they were behind in math, science and written Japanese. Chizuru and Yutaka began to get phone calls home regarding their children’s struggles in the classroom from the school’s teachers and administrators. In particular they claimed that Kenichi was unwilling to accept facts stated by the teachers and constantly wanted to the logic behind the various statements, he asked way too many questions during class and his teachers claimed that his memorization skills seemed to be quite poor. Yukimi, on the other hand, appeared to be adjusting a little easier than Kenichi but she claimed that her classmates were calling her Gaijin (which means foreigner in Japanese). Both Kenichi and Yukimi also claimed that their peers had been ridiculing them about some of their clothes that they had purchased while they were living in California. Chizuru also faced problems adjusting back to life in Japan. It had taken her about a year to get used to life in California, but now that she has returned to Japan she missed many things about her life in California. What she

    . A case that involved the topic of rape and the laws pertinent to it was that of Oliver Jovanovic. In 1998, Jovanovic, then a student at Columbia University in New York City, was convicted of attacking a Barnard College student, Jamie Rzucek. Rzucek claimed that Jovanovic had subjected her to torture and sexual abuse, holding her in his apartment for 20 hours. The defense claimed that the bondage was consensual, and said they had electronic-mail transcripts between the two as evidence that Rzucek had consented to the activity. However, the judge refused to admit the transcripts as evidence, saying that because they detailed the accuser's sexual conduct, they violated New York's rape shield law. In 1999, an appeals court ordered a retrial,…

    As this was a case brought up by the state of Nevada, there were criminal charges that were filed against the defendant Taukitoku, those being three counts of murder with the use of a firearm as well as four counts of assault with a deadly weapon. The murder with the use of a firearm charges against Taukitoku were brought up for the killings of Charles Kelly, Derek Jensen, and Nathaniel Viljoen with a .380 Taurus semi-automatic handgun. The four counts of assault with a deadly weapon were for the killings of the three men and pointing the gun at Annetria Scott, another woman who was attending the party. Since Taukitoku’s trial took place in a criminal court, jury unanimity was required to uphold his guilt. Similarly, the state was required to prove that the evidence of Taukitoku’s crimes were beyond a reasonable doubt, i.e., a certainty of 98%, to be convicted.…

    Hamilton Wong Case

    • 796 Words

    1. If I were in Hamilton Wong’s position, I would feel compelled to report every single one of my hours worked on the Willie & Loman audit. The practice of underreporting your hours or “eating time” as Wong called it, is highly unethical and can lead to many future problems in the workplace. Although it is something that commonly takes place, that does not mean it is any less unethical to do. The problems that you run into by doing this mostly involve future audits. The first problem is not being able to bill the client correctly, as they are paying much less than the work that they actually received from the firm. It effects future audits because if you report that it took so many less hours than expected, this will be expected of your team in the future. Management will only budget the time that you reported for the next audit, making each subsequent audit harder and harder to complete within the budget given. This will only hurt you and your whole audit team in the future, so Hutchinson or Wong should not do it no matter what promotion is at stake. I believe that Hutchinson did behave unethically by underreporting her hours worked on the engagement so severely. Although she has made the situation better for herself by looking like the all star of the team, she has only hurt the team for future audits when they will keep receiving low budget times for audits. This is a very selfish decision that Hutchinson has made, making it highly unethical.…

    A child in this culture is taught to be dependent instead of independent. Unlike other cultures where a mother encourages her child to dress herself or choose her own toys, in Japan, parents do most tasks for the child, even into the teen years. Japanese moms will decide the hobbies, education and career paths of their children. Because of this culture, Japanese children learn obedience and to rely on their mother’s direction. From birth, mothers create an intimatmacy with their baby and continue build that connection into the adult years. The mother’s ultimate goal is for her child to establish the same mentality. It is tradition for Japanese moms to rely on the intimate bond they’ve established with their children instead of punishment, to keep them behaving appropriately. Mother’s spend most of thier time at home with their children in order to monitor communication, education, food, hobbies and even clothing. Children remain at home for most of the day and are taught to communicate frequently, honestly and exclusively with their mothers. Japanese parents are strongly committed to early education, which carries over into formal education. One of the main focuses of raising children in Japan is preparing them to succeed in education and…
