2. Why is there little tax evasion in Singapore or any other country of your choice? Is it because Singaporeans fear state punishment or because they are satisfied with the performance of the state? Or is there any other explanation? Which explanation(s) do you find most persuasive? Why? Tax evasion‚ the illegal negligence in taxpaying and misrepresentation of tax returns to reduce one’s tax liabilities‚ is at a low level in Singapore. With Singapore’s strong tax enforcement‚ Singaporeans fear

Dracca became aware that one of its competitors‚ TrendBaby‚ Inc.‚ was soliciting information from one of Dracca’s employees‚ Bob Shumaster. Shumaster was apparently detailing product assembly information that was unique to Dracca and explaining to TrendBaby how this assembly strategy saved Dracca thousands of dollars each month. Dracca discovered that TrendBaby actually hired Shumaster to provide this information‚ and that Shumaster was using Dracca company computers to relay the proprietary information

commentary The boundless carbon cycle Tom J. Battin‚ Sebastiaan Luyssaert‚ Louis A. Kaplan‚ Anthony K. Aufdenkampe‚ Andreas Richter and Lars J. Tranvik The terrestrial biosphere is assumed to take up most of the carbon on land. However‚ it is becoming clear that inland waters process large amounts of organic carbon and must be considered in strategies to mitigate climate change. A tmospheric carbon dioxide concentrations increased from ~280 ppm before the industrial revolution to over 384

Carbon nanotube 1 Carbon nanotube Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are allotropes of carbon with a cylindrical nanostructure. Nanotubes have been constructed with [1] length-to-diameter ratio of up to 132‚000‚000:1‚ significantly larger than for any other material. These cylindrical carbon molecules have unusual properties‚ which are valuable for nanotechnology‚ electronics‚ optics and other fields of materials science and technology. In particular‚ owing to their extraordinary thermal conductivity

Carbon dioxide is both a vital requirement for producers – the first organisms in any food chain‚ and at times a dangerous waste product. Where plants use carbon dioxide during the Calvin cycle of photosynthesis‚ at night they also produce small quantities due to respiration. Fundamentally‚ carbon dioxide reacts with ribulose bisphosphate to produce glycerate 3-phosphate in the light independent reaction. In turn glycerate3-phosphate is reduced to triose phosphate using reduced NADP

Carbon Footprint Analysis Background Every year in the U.S. over 3.2 billion metric tons of carbon dioxide emissions are released into the air‚ most of which are from human activities. The increased levels of carbon dioxide has been shown to cause global climate change (global warming). So how can you personally have an impact on global warming and the sustainability of the environment? First‚ you need to recognize how you contribute to the problem. Then you need to figure out how you can reduce

My Carbon Footprint – Homework 9 According to the results of the carbon footprint calculator‚ I contribute to the greenhouse gas emissions. My behavior breakdown pie chart illustrates that my home energy contributes 44.8%‚ my driving and flying contributes 39.4%‚ my recycling and waste contribute 2.2%‚ and my food and diet contribute 13.6% to the greenhouse gas emissions causing climate change and other environmental problems. My estimated greenhouse gas emissions are 43 tons of carbon dioxide

OXYGEN-CARBON CYCLE The carbon-oxygen cycles are actually two independent cycles. However‚ both these cycles are interconnected as well as interdependent on each other to some extent. There are four processes involved in the completion of the carbon-oxygen cycle. Oxygen-carbon cycle processes are: * Photosynthesis Plants undergo photosynthesis that helps them produce energy and food for themselves. During photosynthesis‚ plants take in carbon dioxide (CO2) and absorb water (H2O) with the help
