Question 1:
Since we are initially ignoring the effects of taxes and do not know the required return, (we initially
know only that debt costs 8% but are not provided any information regarding equity costs) the only
available option is to use either a non–time value based evaluation or the internal rate of return:

Energy Inc. case
Scenario 1
Energy Inc. has a present obligation (IAS 37–17) and probable liability (ASC 450–20–25–2) on
December 31, 2011 as a result of a past event, the contamination of the land, because it is virtually
certain that a draft law requiring cleaning up will be enacted. It is probable (more likely than not)
that Energy Inc. will be required to transfer economic benefits in settlement which is an outflow of
resources embodying economic benefits in settlement (IAS 37–23). The amount of the obligation or
loss can also be estimated reliably since Energy Inc. has made similar payments for cleanup in other
countries, which is the best estimate of the costs of the clean (IAS 37–36/ASC 450–20–25–2). As a

As indicated in the definition of contingency, the term loss is used for convenience to include many
charges against income that are commonly referred to as expenses and others that are commonly
referred to as losses. The Contingencies Topic uses the terms probable, reasonably possible, and
remote to identify three areas within that range.
ASC 450–20–25–2 An estimated loss from a loss contingency shall be accrued by a charge to
income if both of the following conditions are met:
(a) Information available before the financial statements are issued or are available to be issued (as
discussed in Section 855–10–25) indicates that it is probable that an asset had been impaired or a
liability had been incurred at the date of the financial statements. Date of the financial statements
means the end of the most recent accounting period for which financial statements are being
presented. It is implicit in this condition that it must be probable that one or more future events will
occur confirming the fact of the loss.
(b) The amount of loss can be reasonably estimated.
The purpose of those conditions is to require accrual of losses when they are reasonably estimable
and relate to the current or a prior period. Paragraphs

Answer Sheet for Merage Capital Budgeting Case:
Q. 1: Free Cash Flow: (1 Point)
Free cash flow is determined by adding up all the company's incoming cash and then subtract the
cash that the company is obliged to payout, which includes all expenses, debt service, preferred
dividend and capital expenditures related to the fiscal period.
The result tells us how much cash was left over or how short of cash the company was at the end of
the fiscal period.

Q. 7: Payback: (1 Point)
Payback period is the time in which the initial cash outflow of an investment is expected to be
recovered from the cash inflows generated by the investment. It is one of the simplest investment
appraisal techniques.
|Payback Period = |Initial Investment |
| |Avg. Cash Inflow per Period |
Q. 8: NPV (1.5 Points)
The difference between the present value of the future cash flows from an investment and the
amount of investment. Present value of the expected cash flows is computed by discounting them at
the required rate of return.
Positive NPV (i.e. Discounted Inflow > Discounted outflow) = accept the project
Negative NPV (i.e. Discounted Inflow < Discounted outflow) = Do not accept the project
Zero NPV (i.e. Discounted Inflow = Discounted outflow) = Indifferent
Q. 9: IRR: (1.5 Points)
The internal rate of return refers to the rate which equates the present value of cash inflows and
present value of cash outflows. In other words it is the rate at which net present value of the
investment is zero. If the net present value is positive, a higher discount rate may be used to bring it
down to equalize the discount cash inflows and vice versa. That's why internal rate is defined as the
breakeven financing rate for the project.

Pro Forma Cash Flow Calculations for Guillermo Furniture
Pro Forma Cash Flow Calculations for Guillermo Furniture Guillermo Furniture are considering
their potential future, there are three choices; to continue as they are, to adopt a high tech strategy or
finally to adopt a broker strategy. The way that the strategy is implemented will also depend on a
decision concerning the structure of the firm and whether or not it will remain as a sole proprietor
business. If the firm does not remain as a sole proprietorship it may become either a partnership, or a
limited company/Corporation. If company was to become a partnership Guillermo need to find a
partner, and was then share ownership and risks. However, it does not appear there only likely
partners, furthermore with falling revenues undertaking a strategy that will require sharing of
revenues is unlikely to be acceptable. If Guillermo forms a Corporation there are some advantages, a
corporation will have its own legal identity, which will mean Guillermo will not carry the risk risks
associated with the business personally, they belong to the business. However, setting up a
corporation can be costly, and a new corporation may find it difficult to borrow money. If the
organization needs to borrow money in order to fund the development, it is highly likely that
Guillermo will be asked to provide personal guarantees, which will undermine the protection
afforded by the corporate veil. Therefore, it would appear there are no significant advantages to

Another substantive procedure to be employed in trying to uncover irregularities is the use of
substantive analytical procedures over the completeness of expenses. Some additional procedures to
consider include analyzing the aging of Apollo's payables balances, examining reports of debit
balances, large or old suspense items, balances with no scheduled payment date, those of new
suppliers, and reports of entries from unusual sources.
Payroll
Personnel and payroll are critical to most entities. Payroll schemes are a fraudulent disbursement in
which a payment is made to an employee that is not due to them. Occupational fraud in the form of
payroll schemes can drastically impact the financial status of a company. Payroll schemes are
similar to billing schemes in that they are based on a fraudulent claim for payment (Wells, 2005, pp.
167).
Payroll schemes may be defined as occupational frauds in which a person who works for an
organization causes that organization to issue a payment by making false claims for compensation.
The three main categories of payroll fraud are ghost employee schemes, falsified hours and salary
schemes and commission schemes. Ghost employee refers to a fictitious employee that does not
work for the company. With the falsification of personnel and payroll records a paycheck will be
issued to a ghost employee and will be cashed by the employee. Falsified hours and salary

M1 : Analyse Cash Flow Problems
M1 – Analyse cash–flow problems
Introduction:
A cash flow is an accounting statement and is normally called the statement of cash flows. A cash
flow statement shows the amount of cash generated and used by a company in a given period. The
cash flow is calculated by adding noncash charges to net income after taxes. It is important and
crucial for businesses to have a healthy cash flow because it helps with the survival of a business. A
business might experience cash flow issues due to the direct link between the low profits or losses
and cash flow problems; the loss makes the business eventually run out of cash. They can also
experience cash flow problems due to the business holding too much stock, this tie up cash and there
is an increased risk that stocks cannot be sold. Businesses can also experience cash flow problems
due to the over investment.
Findings:
Signature has experienced some problems with their cash–flow, the problems that they faced are:
– The balances are negative.
– The opening balance in January is 0.
– The outflows are high and inflows are low.
– The credit sales and commission received in January is 0.
– The investment is low and needed to be higher.
I will be analysing these problems to give a reason as to why they have faced these problems and
how they can resolve these problems.

Questions On Financial Accounting Standards
According to the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification
Topic 230 (ASC 230), cash flows are classified in the Statement of Cash Flows (SCF) as cash flows
from operating, investing, and financing activities. ASC 230 replaced FASB Statement No 95
(SFAS–95). This paper will discuss certain problems in SFAS–95 that continue to exist. Certain
related cash flows are classified differently because of inconsistencies and ambiguities in
classification. Further, the indirect method is widely executed while the direct method discloses
more cash flow information. This paper alerts users to make more informed assessments of cash
flow information with regards to the subtotals from operating, investing, and financing activities.
This paper also suggests the FASB require the direct method for reporting purposes to improve
investors' and creditors' judgment accuracy. At the same time, this paper provides users ratios to
assess the quality of income to make more informed decisions. ASC 230 requires that companies
provide the SCF for each operational period. The SCF provides information about cash and cash
equivalents, and classifies cash receipts and cash payments as resulting from operating, investing, or
financing activities (Nurnberg 1993). The measurement of the SCF is considered as being more
reliable and more objective than the measurement of the income statement because the latter
involves more judgment about accruals, allocations, and

expense the franchises entail is on account of running and maintaining the teams.
Apart from the above mentioned, a franchise may earn or lose some money during the buying or

Sponsors inflow: No direct revenue generated through IPL.
Sponsors outflow: Sponsors have a lot as stake as top of the line slots can go for up to $17k per spot.

Komandor Sa Essay
Comparison of the different alternatives:
1. Capitalize the consulting fees:
In this case, the Profit Before Tax (PBT) would have been higher by $200,000. Therefore, they
would have paid 28% x $200,000 = $56,000 in taxes. The Net Income (NI) would have been
increased by $144,000.
2. Allocate the consulting fees to the plastic products:
Before allocating the fees, Komandor was buying 500,000 units at $0.45$/unit  duty fees =
500,000 x $0.45 x 0.09 = $20,250
If Komandor allocates the consulting fees to the plastic products, we have to find the new price P

Genesis Energy, L.P is a midstream energy master limited partnership headquartered in Huston,
Texas, with a diverse portfolio of customers. After working on Genesis Energy's cash flow
statements it shows that they have a strong sales, however they show a poor cost control within the
organization. As we can see on their cash flow statement they have reduced sales on some months,
which can be attributing of seasonal factors. Especially on December, which they decreased their
sales $150,000 after having two months of $700,000 on October and November. Cash inflow is all

There are payments for material, selling and administrative expenses, tax expenses and interest
expenses. In this case, Genesis energy did not have any dividends payment and that lowered their
cash outflows. In this situation, cash outflows was changing very frequently, but definitely in the
second year the number of cash outflows was higher than in the first year. Finally, we were able to
calculate net cash gain or loss by subtracting cash inflow from cash outflow. I there was a gain if the
cash inflows were higher than cash outflows and there was a loss if it was opposite. In the cash flow
summary we started off with cash balance start of the month which was $10,000 and then added on
the net cash gain. The total balance was called cash balance at the end of the month. It was told to us
that there is a minimum cash balance desired which was $25,000 and the rest of the money was
either surplus or deficit. If we had more money in the total balance than $25,000, the rest of the
money would be surplus. If we would have less money in the total balance than $25,000. That
would be called deficit. So in the case, that we had surplus, we would not need any external finance
requirement, but if we would have deficit we would need it. Over the course of 2 years, deficit

With this limited sort of resection the residual mid–septal bulge still redirects flow posteriorly: SAM
persists because flow still gets behind the mitral valve. It is only when the deeper portion of the
septal bulge is resected that flow is redirected anteriorly away from the mitral valve, abolishing
SAM.[3][40] With this in mind, a modification of the Morrow myectomy termed extended
myectomy, mobilization and partial excision of the papillary muscles has become the excision of
choice.[3][18][19][41] In selected patients with particularly large redundant mitral valves, anterior
leaflet plication may be added to complete separation of the mitral valve and outflow.[41][42]
Complications of septal myectomy surgery include possible death, arrhythmias, infection,incessant
bleeding, septal perforation/defect, stroke.[24] Alcohol septal ablation [edit] Alcohol septal ablation,

This created a positive cash flow from the operating activities. The investing activities showed that
there was one purchase in fixed assets category, which caused an outflow in the terms of investing.
The financing activities show an increase for the shares sold, following a good amount of a payment
in the long–term debt and the lines of credit. Therefore, with in inflow of the share issue becoming
larger, this produced an inflow of cash. Not including the investing activities, the other two activities
created a positive cash flow, therefore increasing the company's cash reserves.
A net profit was shown on the statement in 2004 of $8,119,000. This adjusted non–cash items

The excessive dispersion of pigment during exercise or activity is known as pigmentary storm,
which also we lead to an increase in the patient's IOPs [7–8, 17–18]. Pilocarpine would work by
directly stimulating the cholinergic receptors of the parasympathetic pathway, which then causes
contraction of the ciliary muscle causing increased tension on the scleral spur and opening the
trabecular meshwork to facilitate outflow of aqueous humor and diminish outflow resistance to
lower IOP [19]. This would allow the patient's IOPs to be reduced to be within normal limits and
helping treat the patient's elevated IOPs. As mentioned previously, the patient was administered
latanoprost for the treatment of his PG. Latanoprost works in a similar fashion by overall increasing

The Purpose Of The Cash Flow Statement
There is an old saying by Earl Wilson (2015) that states "Today, there are three kinds of people: the
haves, the have–nots, and the have–not–paid–for–what–they–haves" (p. 1). This saying also applies
to businesses, and investors will try to identify which category a company falls in as they conduct
their research. Investors want to know they are committing their money to an organization that can
effectively manage its cash. Cash is the fuel within every organization. It is extremely important for
every executive, manager, and investor to understand the cash flow battle rhythm within their
organization by utilizing the statement of cash flow. Analyzing the statement of cash flow, will
enable investors to determine if a company is effective at managing their finances.
Purpose of the Cash Flow Statement
Cash inflow and outflow is a litmus test of a company's performance during a specific time frame.
Cash is the lifeline of the company and the availability or lack of cash is a clear indication of a
successful or failing business for most financial analysts, investors and company management. The
statement of cash flow is the means used by many to view the cash movement within an

They include the upper layer of the Atlantic water flowing eastward above the heavier and saltier
Mediterranean water that flows eastwards into the Atlantic Ocean. Also, it is referred to as the
Mediterranean outflow water (Wesson & Gregg, 2009). As the Mediterranean water flows to the sea
it follows the rising sea floor creating series of internal waves which are not easy seen because they
do not generate large waves, but rather horizontal surface currents that affect the roughness of the
sea surface. Internal waves can be seen from space suing special radar method capable of detecting
sensitive changes in the roughness of the water surface. The direct link created by the Strait of

Therefore, the net capital outflow decreases, which is shown by the fall in CF from CFo to CF1.
Likewise, if there is a fall in the interest rate from ro to r2, capital outflow increases, and capital
inflow decreases, leading to an increase in net capital outflow as indicated by an increase in CF to
CF2. The Capital Outflow (CF) curve is therefore, downward sloping. This means that, higher
domestic rates of interest are associated with lower net capital outflows, and lower domestic rates of
interest are associated with higher net capital outflows.
As mentioned earlier, the three–paned model plots the net export schedule (NX) with respect to the
exchange rate, E. E is defined as the foreign currency per unit of domestic currency. If we drop the
equilibrium amount of capital flows CFo from pane II to the third pane we get the equilibrium
amount of net exports, NXo, which is determined by the intersection of the perpendicular dropped

This technique assist in the decision making process because once the internal rate of return is
determined, the desired investment can easily be decided. Taking the cash outflow and inflow from
each alternative and the desired rate of return will offer the best comparison as which investment
will present a return favorable.
Recommendation
The recommendation Mr. Navallez should take is alternative 1. Alternative 1 offers the best return
on investment. The use of the net present value techniques presents the desired return on investment.
Net present value over internal rate of return presents the expected return on cash outflows for the
cost of the investment, thus allowing management to "compute a present value index." (Edmonds,
Edmonds, Olds, McNair, & Schnieder, p.1160) Assume the desired rate of return is 8% over 10
periods, alternative 1 cash inflow would be $421,834 with cash outflow being $323,091 and
alternative 2 cash inflow of $314,057 with cash outflow being $283,930. The present value of
alternative 1 is $98,743 and alternative 2 is $30,127. Alternative 1 yields a higher rate of return,

Aortic Valve Essay
Anatomy of the Aortic Valve The normal aortic Valve (AV) is made up of three cusps thus providing
even distribution of mechanical stress to the valve ring and the aorta (Dweck, Boon, & Newby

matrix and physical force effecting the flow of blood (Li, Xu, & Gotlieb, 2013). The AV is
composed of three layers, the valvular endothelial cells (VEC), which are part of the blood–
containing surface, appear on both the inflow and outflow sides of the valve. The valvular interstitial
cells (VIC), which are present in all three layers, affect the plasticity of the valve. The VIC cells are

When one studies calcified aortic valve disease (CAVD) for the purpose of this paper it will be
referred to as AS, microscopically, one can see indicators of chronic inflammatory process,
disruption to the basement membrane, and lipid accumulation in the fibrosa (Akerstrom, Barderas &
Rodriquez–Padial, 2013). Hypertension, smoking, and hypercholesterolemia, all common
cardiovascular risk factors, influence the changes that contribute to CAVD.
Abnormal hemodynamic forces create stress and strain on the Aortic Valve (AV), both of which
cause inflammation and remodeling of the extra cellular matrix. In the early stages, an alteration
occurs in the lipid accumulation below the endothelium and in the fibrosa layer. The change in the
cell membrane permeability of the endothelial lining or increased accumulation of low density
lipoprotein (LDL) may contribute to this alteration in lipid accumulation (Akerstrom, Barderas &
Rodriquez–Padial, 2013). The inflammatory process sets off a cascade of events. Macrophages take
up oxidized LDL, which then become foam cells. Once combined, they activate T lymphocytes,
which in turn activate multiple pro–inflammatory cytokines (Akerstrom, Barderas & Rodriquez–
Padial, 2013). This cascade influences cell apoptosis, remodeling of the extracellular matrix, and
calcification. The progression of the calcification causes the obstruction. Initially the nodules form
near the margins of the valvular cusps and do not cause symptoms. However, with continued
inflammation, stress, and strain over time, the nodules increase and begin to cause outflow
obstruction, resulting in symptomatic AS (Akerstrom, Barderas & Rodriquez–Padial,

The data shown in figure 5 demonstrates the adequacy of the Level Pool Routing approximation.
The two water levels run very closely with very little error. The difference between the two can be
attributed to human error when reading the observed times during the experiment.
Conclusion and Recommendations:
A level pool routing experiment was carried out to determine the adequacy of results obtained
through simulated flood routing. The experiment yielded experimental results from which
calculations of inflow; storage and discharge over a weir were obtained. The Energy Grade line from
the tank to the pipe outlet was observed as well as the relationship between the tank discharge to the
square root of height. Noted from this was that height was the driving force of flow from the tank.
Following, a Puls flood routing method was used to simulate the event again with theoretical values.
The relationship between discharge and discharge with storage over time was obtained and used to

Foreign Direct Investment ( Fdi )
In this 21st century, we live in a time like no other. The world has transformed as a result of
globalization. Globalization has made it possible for individuals who wake up in east, to end their
day in the other part of the world. Nations came together and eliminated trade barriers, which
enabled Corporation's to begin foreign direct investment (FDI) in other nations. This resulted,
corporations transform into Multinational Enterprises. The movie "The Grand Seduction" shows the
powerful impact FDI's can have for an economy. This essay will analyze the movie and the

This was very successful for India "It said after the launch of 'Make in India ' initiative, there is a
nearly 40 per cent increase in FDI inflows during October 2014 to June 2015."(Economic Times).
FDI from developed countries to developing countries is a vehicle not only for providing physical
capital, but also for transferring advanced technology, managerial skills, and innovative products.
The transfer of intangible assets if often viewed as the "spillover" effects of FDI. Foreign affiliates
from developed countries may also replace inefficient firms in developing countries. In "The Grand
Seduction" once a fishing community where people lived happily were now dependent on
government welfare. The government was helping its citizens but the help in a way was degrading
lives of the people. People wanted to leave the town and go elsewhere. In the movie we see the
mayor planning to offer full tax exemption to bring in the factory in the town. The movie shows the
FDI as a last resort to revive Newfoundland. Studies show that FDI in the manufacturing sector
plays a very important role in enhancing the economic growth, but FDI in nonmanufacturing sectors
does not, example agriculture. Manufacturing FDI accounts for the lion's share of FDI inflows in
developing countries. In Foreign Direct Investment "Based on two–stage least squares,

can improve on whether they are making a profit or not. Also I need to identify where they have
regular inflow and outflows and irregular inflow and outflows. I will also comment on how the fresh
business can maintain more regular numbers. January and February In January the sales is £17,000
it increases by £2,000 to £19,000.the total income in January was £32,000 it decreases by £13,000 to

The total expenditure for May is at £18,900 and this is because of the cost for the delivery van.
Irregular expenditure is bad for the company because you don't know when it going to happen or
how much going to cost. It had effect the business badly because it had a monthly cash flow.
However, Steve has made a dramatic improvement between this month and all the others as the total
expenditure totals up to £10,900 for June it was better than may total expenditure £18,200 the reason
why there is a decrease is the delivery van was an irregular outflow. The monthly net cash flow is at
–£7,900 for May and –£2,900 for June this is a decrease of –£5,000 and this is decreasing hopefully
meaning it will time we will see more positive monthly cash outflows. The closing balance for May
is at £14,500 and for June at £11,600 a decrease of £2,900. This is having a bad impact on the
business because of the monthly net cash flow and total expenditure are both negative means Steve's
business is not making profit only loss. It could be costly in the long run. I think Steve should lower
his salary to £3000 since they are not having positive monthly net cash and total expenditure. July

Salaries expense and machinery and equipment would be the company's cash outflow. The cash
outflow is $2,250,000.
NPV= 58,000,000– 2,250,000 =55,750,000
Projects with a positive NPV add value to the firm.
Cash inflows and outflows can occur at any time during the project. The NPV of the project is the
sum of the present values of the net cash flows for each time period t, where t takes on the values 0
(the beginning of the project) through N (the end of the project).
With this formula we can also calculate the time and the amount of money the capital invested in the
project will have generate profits.
The NPV calculation provides a dollar measure of how much a project is expected to add to a firm 's
value. Analysts may also want to know what the rate of return on a project is in order to compare it
to the cost of capital. This rate is called the internal rate of return, or IRR.
The IRR is the discount rate that makes the present value of the cash inflows equal to the present
value of the cash outflows. This is the same as saying that the IRR is the discount rate that makes the
net present value equal to zero.
The formula that represents the IRR is

Resigning Employees and Knowledge Outflow
Company knowledge – Resigning employees possibly will take valuable knowledge about the
company past history, current projects and future plans sometimes to the competitors.
Customer service – Business is usually done with a company because of the relationship the client
has with an employee of the company. When this employee leaves, this relationship is severed thus
leading to potential client loss.
Turnover results in more turnovers – When an employee leaves, the mood in the office changes.
This effect is felt throughout the organization. The other employees are required to make up for the
loss. This might lead to more employees leaving the organization.
Regaining efficiency – A lot of time is waste in selecting a new employee and training to replace an
old employee. Considerable amount of time is lost while the new employee might take some time to
get used to his new job.
Goodwill – When turnover rates are low, goodwill is maintained. While, when the retention levels
are high there is a possibility of attracting better talent into FedEx.
Why employees leave – Except money, there are many other needs of employees that need to be
satisfied for them to stay longer in the organization. Some of the reasons why employees resign are:
Unexpected responsibilities – Generally, employees have an idea of what they want their tasks to be.
In a situation where the responsibility is totally different from their expectations, they will feels de–

The Contingencies Topic uses the terms probable, reasonably possible, and remote to identify three areas within that range. ASC 450–20–25–2 An estimated loss from a loss contingency shall be accrued by a charge to income if both of the following conditions are met: (a) Information available before the financial statements are issued or are available to be issued (as discussed in Section 855–10–25) indicates that it is probable that an asset had been impaired or a liability had been incurred at the date of the financial statements.

It is implicit in this condition that it must be probable that one or more future events will occur confirming the fact of the loss. (b) The amount of loss can be reasonably estimated.

Present value of the expected cash flows is computed by discounting them at the required rate of return.

In other words it is the rate at which net present value of the investment is zero. If the net present value is positive, a higher discount rate may be used to bring it down to equalize the discount cash inflows and vice versa.

Some additional procedures to consider include analyzing the aging of Apollo's payables balances, examining reports of debit balances, large or old suspense items, balances with no scheduled payment date, those of new suppliers, and reports of entries from unusual sources. Payroll Personnel and payroll are critical to most entities. Payroll schemes are a fraudulent disbursement in which a payment is made to an employee that is not due to them. Occupational fraud in the form of payroll schemes can drastically impact the financial status of a company. Payroll schemes are similar to billing schemes in that they are based on a fraudulent claim for payment (Wells, 2005, pp. 167). Payroll schemes may be defined as occupational frauds in which a person who works for an organization causes that organization to issue a payment by making false claims for compensation. The three main categories of payroll fraud are ghost employee schemes, falsified hours and salary schemes and commission schemes. Ghost employee refers to a fictitious employee that does not work for the company. With the falsification of personnel and payroll records a paycheck will be issued to a ghost employee and will be cashed by the employee. Falsified hours and salary

  • 20. M1 : Analyse Cash Flow Problems M1 – Analyse cash–flow problems Introduction: A cash flow is an accounting statement and is normally called the statement of cash flows. A cash flow statement shows the amount of cash generated and used by a company in a given period. The cash flow is calculated by adding noncash charges to net income after taxes. It is important and crucial for businesses to have a healthy cash flow because it helps with the survival of a business. A business might experience cash flow issues due to the direct link between the low profits or losses and cash flow problems; the loss makes the business eventually run out of cash. They can also experience cash flow problems due to the business holding too much stock, this tie up cash and there is an increased risk that stocks cannot be sold. Businesses can also experience cash flow problems due to the over investment. Findings: Signature has experienced some problems with their cash–flow, the problems that they faced are: – The balances are negative. – The opening balance in January is 0. – The outflows are high and inflows are low. – The credit sales and commission received in January is 0. – The investment is low and needed to be higher.

  • 25. Questions On Financial Accounting Standards According to the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification Topic 230 (ASC 230), cash flows are classified in the Statement of Cash Flows (SCF) as cash flows from operating, investing, and financing activities. ASC 230 replaced FASB Statement No 95 (SFAS–95). This paper will discuss certain problems in SFAS–95 that continue to exist. Certain related cash flows are classified differently because of inconsistencies and ambiguities in classification. Further, the indirect method is widely executed while the direct method discloses more cash flow information. This paper alerts users to make more informed assessments of cash flow information with regards to the subtotals from operating, investing, and financing activities. This paper also suggests the FASB require the direct method for reporting purposes to improve investors' and creditors' judgment accuracy. At the same time, this paper provides users ratios to assess the quality of income to make more informed decisions. ASC 230 requires that companies provide the SCF for each operational period. The SCF provides information about cash and cash equivalents, and classifies cash receipts and cash payments as resulting from operating, investing, or financing activities (Nurnberg 1993). The measurement of the SCF is considered as being more reliable and more objective than the measurement of the income statement because the latter involves more judgment about accruals, allocations, and ...

In this case, Genesis energy did not have any dividends payment and that lowered their cash outflows. In this situation, cash outflows was changing very frequently, but definitely in the second year the number of cash outflows was higher than in the first year. Finally, we were able to calculate net cash gain or loss by subtracting cash inflow from cash outflow. I there was a gain if the cash inflows were higher than cash outflows and there was a loss if it was opposite. In the cash flow summary we started off with cash balance start of the month which was $10,000 and then added on the net cash gain. The total balance was called cash balance at the end of the month. It was told to us that there is a minimum cash balance desired which was $25,000 and the rest of the money was either surplus or deficit. If we had more money in the total balance than $25,000, the rest of the money would be surplus. If we would have less money in the total balance than $25,000. That would be called deficit.

Actual IOP may be underestimated in patients with thinner corneal thickness, and overestimated in patients with thicker corneal thickness. [12]. Having normal corneal thickness and abnormal C/D ratios would still alter the patient's vision.

The excessive dispersion of pigment during exercise or activity is known as pigmentary storm, which also we lead to an increase in the patient's IOPs [7–8, 17–18]. Pilocarpine would work by directly stimulating the cholinergic receptors of the parasympathetic pathway, which then causes contraction of the ciliary muscle causing increased tension on the scleral spur and opening the trabecular meshwork to facilitate outflow of aqueous humor and diminish outflow resistance to lower IOP [19]. This would allow the patient's IOPs to be reduced to be within normal limits and helping treat the patient's elevated IOPs. As mentioned previously, the patient was administered latanoprost for the treatment of his PG.

They include the upper layer of the Atlantic water flowing eastward above the heavier and saltier Mediterranean water that flows eastwards into the Atlantic Ocean. Also, it is referred to as the Mediterranean outflow water (Wesson & Gregg, 2009). As the Mediterranean water flows to the sea it follows the rising sea floor creating series of internal waves which are not easy seen because they do not generate large waves, but rather horizontal surface currents that affect the roughness of the sea surface. Internal waves can be seen from space suing special radar method capable of detecting sensitive changes in the roughness of the water surface. The direct link created by the Strait of Gibraltar between the Mediterranean and the Atlantic Ocean is responsible for the generation of unique wave patterns and unique flow. The unique patterns created as a result of the interaction between the global evaporative and different regional forces, wind forces, and tidal forces (Robinson & Paola, 2005).

Likewise, if there is a fall in the interest rate from ro to r2, capital outflow increases, and capital inflow decreases, leading to an increase in net capital outflow as indicated by an increase in CF to CF2. The Capital Outflow (CF) curve is therefore, downward sloping. This means that, higher domestic rates of interest are associated with lower net capital outflows, and lower domestic rates of interest are associated with higher net capital outflows. As mentioned earlier, the three–paned model plots the net export schedule (NX) with respect to the exchange rate, E. E is defined as the foreign currency per unit of domestic currency. If we drop the equilibrium amount of capital flows CFo from pane II to the third pane we get the equilibrium amount of net exports, NXo, which is determined by the intersection of the perpendicular dropped from the CF schedule with the NX schedule. This also gives the equilibrium nominal exchange rate, Eo.

Taking the cash outflow and inflow from each alternative and the desired rate of return will offer the best comparison as which investment will present a return favorable. Recommendation The recommendation Mr. Navallez should take is alternative 1. Alternative 1 offers the best return on investment. The use of the net present value techniques presents the desired return on investment. Net present value over internal rate of return presents the expected return on cash outflows for the cost of the investment, thus allowing management to "compute a present value index." (Edmonds, Edmonds, Olds, McNair, & Schnieder, p.1160) Assume the desired rate of return is 8% over 10 periods, alternative 1 cash inflow would be $421,834 with cash outflow being $323,091 and alternative 2 cash inflow of $314,057 with cash outflow being $283,930. The present value of alternative 1 is $98,743 and alternative 2 is $30,127.

Aortic Valve Essay Anatomy of the Aortic Valve The normal aortic Valve (AV) is made up of three cusps thus providing even distribution of mechanical stress to the valve ring and the aorta (Dweck, Boon, & Newby 2012). The valve cusps are attached to the outflow side and have a complex interaction of cells, matrix and physical force effecting the flow of blood (Li, Xu, & Gotlieb, 2013). The AV is composed of three layers, the valvular endothelial cells (VEC), which are part of the blood– containing surface, appear on both the inflow and outflow sides of the valve. The valvular interstitial cells (VIC), which are present in all three layers, affect the plasticity of the valve. The VIC cells are complex and have fibroblast characteristics but are also thought ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... When one studies calcified aortic valve disease (CAVD) for the purpose of this paper it will be referred to as AS, microscopically, one can see indicators of chronic inflammatory process, disruption to the basement membrane, and lipid accumulation in the fibrosa (Akerstrom, Barderas & Rodriquez–Padial, 2013). Hypertension, smoking, and hypercholesterolemia, all common cardiovascular risk factors, influence the changes that contribute to CAVD. Abnormal hemodynamic forces create stress and strain on the Aortic Valve (AV), both of which cause inflammation and remodeling of the extra cellular matrix. In the early stages, an alteration occurs in the lipid accumulation below the endothelium and in the fibrosa layer. The change in the cell membrane permeability of the endothelial lining or increased accumulation of low density lipoprotein (LDL) may contribute to this alteration in lipid accumulation (Akerstrom, Barderas & Rodriquez–Padial, 2013). The inflammatory process sets off a cascade of events. Macrophages take up oxidized LDL, which then become foam cells. Once combined, they activate T lymphocytes, which in turn activate multiple pro–inflammatory cytokines (Akerstrom, Barderas & Rodriquez– Padial, 2013). This cascade influences cell apoptosis, remodeling of the extracellular matrix, and calcification. The progression of the calcification causes the obstruction. Initially the nodules form near the margins of the valvular cusps and do not cause symptoms. However, with continued inflammation, stress, and strain over time, the nodules increase and begin to cause outflow obstruction, resulting in symptomatic AS (Akerstrom, Barderas & Rodriquez–Padial, ...

The experiment yielded experimental results from which calculations of inflow; storage and discharge over a weir were obtained. The Energy Grade line from the tank to the pipe outlet was observed as well as the relationship between the tank discharge to the square root of height.

The NPV of the project is the sum of the present values of the net cash flows for each time period t, where t takes on the values 0 (the beginning of the project) through N (the end of the project). With this formula we can also calculate the time and the amount of money the capital invested in the project will have generate profits. The NPV calculation provides a dollar measure of how much a project is expected to add to a firm 's value. Analysts may also want to know what the rate of return on a project is in order to compare it to the cost of capital. This rate is called the internal rate of return, or IRR.
