Ab116: accounting ii unit 5: unit 5: long-term liabilities –

General Electric ® Capital, a division of General Electric, uses long-term debt extensively. In early 2002, GE Capital issued $11 billion in long-term debt to investors, and then within days filed legal documents to prepare for another $50 billion long-term debt issue. As a result of the $50 billion filing, the price of the initial $11 billion offering declined (due to higher risk of more debt).
Bill Gross, a manager of a bond investment fund, “denounced a ‘lack in candor’ related to GE’s recent debt deal.” He said, “it was the most recent and most egregious example of how bondholders are mistreated.” Gross argued that GE was not forthright when GE Capital recently issued $11 billion in bonds, one of the largest issues ever from a U.S. corporation. What bothered Gross is that 3 days after the issue, the company announced its intention to sell as much as $50 billion in additional debt, warrants, preferred stock, guarantees, letters of credit, and promissory notes at some future date.”
In your opinion, did GE Capital act unethically by selling $11 billion of long-term debt without telling those investors that a few days later it would be filing documents to prepare for another $50 billion debt offering? Please explain why the action is unethical and if the action is illegal as well.

Assignment 02: caregiving interviews | HA4120D-Management of Continum Care Services

HA4120D – Management of Continuum Care Services
Assignment 02: Caregiving Interviews
Directions
This project requires you to interview three different individuals involved in long term care. It is an important activity and time intensive.
A. Begin this assignment with an introductory overview of the different types of caregivers, their roles, and the availability of payment (if any) from third-party sources, such as insurance, for these caregivers’ services.
B. Interview the following three types of people:
• A care recipient.
• A caregiver who is not being paid (family member or friend of the care recipient).
• A professional who provides care to people with long-term illnesses (ranging from physicians to in-home assistants).
Note: Interviewing people who are part of the same dyad is not necessary. If a care recipient/caregiver pair is interviewed, each person should be interviewed alone so that answers are individual.
These interviews can be completed in person, over the phone, email, Instant Messaging, etc. However, it’s best if you can actually speak to the person.
C. Use the following sets of questions for your interviews: Questions for Person Receiving Care, Questions for In-Home Caregiver, Questions for Professional Provider.
D. Conclude the project with a critique answering the following questions, and taking into account all of the segments of the continuum of care studied to-date:
• Is the client receiving the care he/she needs?
• Are the caregivers able to provide the care needed? Why or why not?
• Is another level of care needed? Why or why not?
• What have you learned about the existing system of long-term care?

SECR 5080 WU Wardriving Article Reaction

WEEKS 6-9 ONLY. Man charged with stealing Wi-Fi signal ST. PETERSBURG, Florida (AP) — Police have arrested a man for using someone else’s wireless Internet network in one of the first criminal cases involving this fairly common practice. Benjamin Smith III, 41, faces a pretrial hearing this month following his April arrest on charges of unauthorized access to a computer network, a third-degree felony. Police say Smith admitted using the Wi-Fi signal from the home of Richard Dinon, who had noticed Smith sitting in an SUV outside Dinon’s house using a laptop computer. The practice is so new that the Florida Department of Law Enforcement doesn’t even keep statistics, according to the St. Petersburg Times, which reported Smith’s arrest this week. Innocuous use of other people’s unsecured Wi-Fi networks is common. But experts say that illegal use often goes undetected, such as people sneaking on others’ networks to traffic in child pornography, steal credit card information and send death threats. Security experts say people can prevent such access by turning on encryption or requiring passwords, but few bother or even know how to do so. Wi-Fi, short for Wireless Fidelity, has enjoyed prolific growth since 2000. Millions of households have set up wireless home networks that allow people to use the Web from their backyards but also reach the house next door or down the street. Prosecutors declined to comment, and a working phone number could not be located for Smith.Please read related article on WarDriving: Your reaction? Can you find other examples of wireless security concerns?

Ok guys, i have a scenario here: *project scope* the project

Ok guys, I have a scenario here:
*Project Scope*
The project designs a school computer lab with the necessary hardware and software components along with the IP address for different components. The computer lab consists of one IP network with 100 computers on one Domain. The files are shared using FTP server. Servers are configured with Static IP address and clients have dynamic IP addresses received from a DHCP Server. Programming software like Java, C,C++ are installed on all the users PC’s. The softwares are also available on the FTP server, as a downloadable. Identify the necessary components like software , hardware and IP network schema to setup the network.
*How to implement the project*
The lab consists of 100 computers. So a total of 48 port *3 switches would be required. The FTP server can be Windows based or Linux flavor. Windows or Linux based DHCP servers can be setup as DHCP Server. The network address of 192.168.1.0 can be configured as a Scope on DHCP Server. Since all the users are belonging to one domain, an active directory can be configured with one single domain name.

IUPUI Statistics Verbal Null and Alternative Hypotheses Questions

Statistics Application Assignment The episode from the podcast The Sporkful from September 23, 2019 is a re-airing of an February 2017 episode called Is Sandwich Sexism Real?Links to an external site.In the episode, they attempt to answer the question: “Do places make smaller sandwiches for women?” You can listen to the podcast (27 minutes long) or read the transcript at that link (as a heads up, there are some slightly weird ads in the podcast). After you’ve done that, please use the Template uploaded on Canvas to answer the following questions about the method and analyses (you can just replace the blue text in the Template: no need to put the answers in a “paper” format).The sandwiches Dan ordered were on average 14.13 ounces, with a standard deviation of 5.41. The sandwiches Laura ordered were on average 15.13 ounces, with a standard deviation of 6.78. The test-statistic was -1.10. (Use the answer you wrote above to report the test-statistic and degrees of freedom). Cohen’s d was 0.55 (as an aside, this is a place where I don’t think Cohen’s rules of thumb for the size of the effect apply)

CU Digital Media BBC Case Study

BBC DIGITAL MEDIA INITIATIVE REVISITED:The National Audit Office (NAO) scrutinizes public spending in the United Kingdom. Its memorandum on the BBC’s DMI project reported on several key findings. First, the in-house team was severely challenged by the fact that the project was already 18 months behind schedule when they began work on the project. Second, the technology team issued releases throughout the project that did not meet end-user expectations and eroded confidence in the project. Third, the BBC focused more on the technological development rather than on encouraging organization-wide changes in workflow that would encourage adoption. Finally, the NAO concluded, the DMI lacked governance arrangements for the scale, risk, and complexity of the project.Do research online to identify the capabilities of digital asset management software. What are the top rated digital asset management software products? Who uses this software?Given the NAO’s findings and what you discover about available off-the-shelf products, would it have been wiser for the BBC to adopt a collection of these existing products? What actions would be necessary to gain the cooperation of the business units to incorporate this collection of products into their work processes
