Select a company, small or large, whose practices you will review.Identify at least one possible risk in the current practice/potential practice that could limit the effectiveness of COSOs internal control framework. How would you discover and fix this issue?

Internal Control Framework
Select a company, small or large, whose practices you will review. You may alternatively use a company you would like to start.In a paper of 4–5 pages:

Evaluate the company’s practices against COSO’s internal control frameworks. If you chose a company that you would like to start, then you are going to establish the COSO internal controls based on your selection of the company’s operations.
Identify at least one possible risk in the current practice/potential practice that could limit the effectiveness of COSO’s internal control framework. How would you discover and fix this issue?

Explain which ART option you would recommend to Melissa who was recently diagnosed with endometrial cancer.

Melissa is a 38-year-old woman who was recently diagnosed with endometrial cancer. After consulting with her gynecologist and oncologist, a hysterectomy was selected as the course of treatment. The oncologist removed Melissa’s uterus and cervix, but left her ovaries intact. No cancer was detected in her ovaries, and they showed signs of continuing ovulation.
Using your textbook, as well as some additional resources, conduct research regarding the Assisted Reproductive Technology (ART) options Melissa has if she decides that she wants a biological child. 
Once you are familiar with ART and Melissa’s options, share your knowledge with your classmates by starting a thread which addresses the following topics:

Explain which ART option you would recommend to Melissa who was recently diagnosed with endometrial cancer

Explain the steps involved in this process for Melissa.
What are some benefits of using the ART process?
What are some drawbacks of using the ART process?

Answer the following questions. Please ensure to use the Author, YYYY APA citations with any content brought into the assignment.  

For sparse data, discuss why considering only the presence of non-zero values might give a more accurate view of the objects than considering the actual magnitudes of values. When would such an approach not be desirable?
Describe the change in the time complexity of K-means as the number of clusters to be found increases.
Discuss the advantages and disadvantages of treating clustering as an optimization problem. Among other factors, consider efficiency, non-determinism, and whether an optimization-based approach captures all types of clusterings that are of interest.
What is the time and space complexity of fuzzy c-means? Of SOM? How do these complexities compare to those of K-means?
Explain the difference between likelihood and probability.
Give an example of a set of clusters in which merging based on the closeness of clusters leads to a more natural set of clusters than merging based on the strength of the connection (interconnectedness) of clusters.

Do you think participatory budgeting would be useful in the city where you live, have lived at one time, or hope to live someday?What are the advantages and disadvantages of the PB approach?

Instructions
In our course text, the author describes a number of budget frameworks, including current services budgeting, fixed-ceiling budgeting, open-ended budgeting, hybrid techniques, performance budgeting, planning-programing budgeting, and zero-base budgeting. 
One type of budget he does not mention is participatory budgeting, perhaps because it is used mostly at the local level. Please investigate the Participatory Budget Project website and conduct research on your own to learn more about PB.
For full credit, please answer all of the following questions and cite your sources:

Do you think participatory budgeting would be useful in the city where you live, have lived at one time, or hope to live someday?
Are there particular types of expenditures you think PB would be more suitable for than others?
What are the advantages and disadvantages of the PB approach?
Of the budgeting systems described in Chapter 7 (Fixed-ceiling budgeting, performance budgeting, etc.), which do you think would be most compatible with participatory budgeting? Explain why.
