What Is Meant by Saying That Accounting Information Should...
"The Framework states that the objective of financial statements is to provide information about the
financial position, performance and changes in financial position of an entity that is useful to a wide
range of users in making economic decisions."
What is meant by saying that accounting information should be ‘decision useful'?
As stated in the AASB Framework, financial statements play an utmost important role to a variety of
users, which mainly consist of the investors, employees, lenders, suppliers and other trade creditors,
customers, governments and their agencies, as well as the public, in making vital financial decisions.
For accounting information to be ‘decision useful' to this groups of people, the financial

Lenders are only willing to fund loans when they have the knowledge that there is an ability to repay
this principal debt at the end of the specific period and make interest payments periodically as they
fall due. As the lenders, such as the banks, are concerned with earning returns and for a secured
investment, they will in particularly look at the amount of assets – cash and those that will soon be
converted to cash, and to "compare it against the liabilities falling due in the future" ( Kloot et al.,
1992, p. 28). For a ‘protection buffer' for the bank should there be any losses in the entity that
borrows, the bank will notice the amount of ownership capital (Kloot et al., 1992).
Suppliers and other trade creditors use the financial information to rate the ability to achieve their
objectives of maximising the ‘rate of return on funds supplied' (Whittred et al, 2004). Thus, they
will be interested in reports that show the ability to pay for the liabilities as they fall due, just as how
lenders will search for these specific information. Governments and their agencies is another
specific group of users interested in abstracting information with a different objective of monitoring
and regulating an entity's activities, performance and profits, since this will affect the nation's
employment level and aids in determining the taxation policies they should be implementing to best

This was due to an 18.2% increase in shipment volume and a 1.3% increase in net revenue per
barrel. Volume increased by .2 million barrels to 1.6 million barrels for the year ended December 30,
2006 as compared to 1.4 million barrels for the year ended December 31, 2005. The increase in
volume was a result of increases in the Samuel Adams brand family and the Twisted Tea brand
family. Gross profit in 2005 was at $103.72 (59.4%) per barrel at year end and in 2006 it fell to
$101.91 (57.6%) per barrel. The decrease in gross profit was primarily due to an increase in cost of
goods sold, as to compared to the prior year which was partially offset by price increases. Cost of
goods sold increased to $75.16 per barrel for the year ended December 30, 2006 as to the previous
year which was $70.99. The increase was caused by higher packaging material and supply chain
cost, as well as shifts in the product and package mix. In conclusion, 2007 shipments and orders–in–

My Options For Clearing Debt
Your Options for Clearing Debt
Debt is something most of us will experience at one point or another in our lives, but very few of us
actually discuss. Not only is it sometimes difficult to admit (to others and to yourself) that you 've
fallen into debt, but it 's a topic that few of us are actually qualified to talk about impartially. It 's
also something that 's very specific, and will differ greatly from person to person, so here, instead of
seeking to answer all the questions, we 've instead decided to offer some more general advice. These
are some of the general options you might want to consider if you are dealing with debt and are
struggling to understand what your next step should be. Note, however, that before you go through
with any of the options listed below, you 'll want to open a dialogue with your creditor and see if
you can reach an agreement with them directly.
Debt Management Plan (DMP) – As the name suggests, a DMP is effectively a plan setup with a
provider that will take all of your disparate debts and compile them into one, simple monthly
payment. This is particularly helpful if you have managed to build up a lot of smaller debts (credit
cards, overdrafts, etc) and want to keep them organised in one place so you don 't forget about them.
You 'd be surprised how often that happens! You can set up a DMP either with your existing
creditors, or with a third party firm, but whomever you use, there will be setup and handling fees to

Advantages of an IVA
It is affordable: Monthly IVA payments are calculated based on what you can reasonably afford,
whilst still maintaining a comfortable lifestyle. Moreover, as part of your IVA, all your unsecured
debts (with interest and charges frozen) are put into one affordable monthly total payment, so you
don't have to worry about your debts increasing.
It is ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
Legal action is stopped: Once you enter into an IVA, your unsecured creditors can't take any further
legal action against you. This protects you from bankruptcy as long as you adhere to the terms of
your IVA.
Your home is safe: An IVA won't normally affect your home, so as long as you maintain your
mortgage payments, you won't have to sell your home. It is very rare that creditors will ask you to
sell your home, and if they do, you have the opportunity to reject this clause and not proceed with
the IVA proposal.
You pay something back: An IVA allows you to repay more of your debts to your creditors than if
you were to go bankrupt.
Become debt–free quicker: An IVA is one of the fastest ways to clear your debts. IVAs usually last 5
years – however this could be extended by a further 12 months if you can't release equity from your
property. At the end of this period, the rest of your debts are completely written off.
Keep your vehicle: You will normally be able to keep your vehicle during an IVA. As long as you
need the vehicle (for work, or for generally getting around) it is unlikely that a creditor will ask you
to get rid of it. However, if they do, you can simply reject their stipulation and not proceed with the
IVA proposal.
IVAs have a great deal of flexibility: If your financial circumstances change, you can request a
'payment break' of up to six months, or ask for a 15% payment reduction. So, if you lose your job or

Personal Bankruptcy Case
If you are planning to file a personal bankruptcy case, you should understand that the law requires
you to treat all of your creditors similarly according to the type of debt they hold. The law prohibits
you from "preferring" one creditor over the others.
If a debtor makes a payment to a creditor shortly prior to the petition date, the law presumes that it
was a preferential payment. If a payment is proven to be a preference, the law allows the trustee the
authority to recover the money paid by the debtor directly from the creditor that received the
payment.
Pursuant to 11 USC §547, a preferential payment occurs when:
a debtor that is insolvent transfers assets to a creditor valued in excess of $600 for a past debt

The main consequence of making a preferential payment is that the trustee is allowed to take action
to recoup the funds or property that was transferred on behalf of the bankruptcy estate and the other
creditors.
A creditor that has received an alleged preferential payment has certain defenses available to it to
challenge the presumption that the payment was a preference. Pursuant to 11 U.S.C. 547(c), the

The relationship between the company and the government is through regulatory requirements,

increased from 91.28 days in 2014 to 98.97 days in 2015 and drop rapidly to 73.64 days in 2016.
Thus, it shows that year 2016 is better than year 2014 and 2015 as the year of 2016 has the lowest
inventory holding period ratio. It indicates that the company holds their inventory for 73.64 days
before selling it to the customers. So, it demonstrates that CN Asia Corporation Berhad managed

depicted that the company has fast growth of sales in 2016 compared to other years, which is RM
18,745,524.
To be detailed, the reason why CN Asia Corporation Berhad took almost 91–98 days to sell their
stock in year 2014 and 2015 is due to the overspending of raw material and overstock of work in
progress inventory by the company. As shown in the notes of financial statement, the company

Why Creditors Do Their Jobs Is Trouble For You Essay
Americans are carrying over $900 billion in credit card debt according to the Federal Reserve. With
approximately 56% of the people carrying credit card debt admitting to having past due balances
over the prior 12 month period, it's safe to assume that creditors have been busy working with
borrowers to collect money. If you are part of this group of borrowers, you might be feeling the
stress and strain that comes from dealing with debt issues.
Why Creditors Doing Their Jobs is Trouble for You
If you are honest, you would have to admit that creditors have the right to use any means necessary,
short of harassment, to collect monies owed them. Of course, that leaves you as the target of their
actions, which isn't a good position in which to find yourself. If you are struggling to find ways to
handle your debt, you are left with the task of trying to figure out how to proceed. One thing you
might try is appealing directly to your creditors for some extra time, debt relief of better terms. That
said, they are under no legal or moral obligation to oblige your requests. If you feel you have the

Bankruptcy: Frightening Reality Essay
Since the 1960s, personal bankruptcy has often served as a refuge for the young and struggling.
Bankruptcy lawyers say younger and less–educated people tended to rack up too much debt while
starting families and jobs, without a savings cushion to carry them through lean times. That's
changing, as personal bankruptcy filings hit all–time highs. Last year, there were more than 1.6
million such filings, nearly twice as many as a decade earlier. Some experts say much of the
increase is being driven by older people, many with decades of work experience in white–collar
jobs. In 2001, per capita filings by people ages 45 to 54 increased 58% from a decade earlier,
according to one study. Bankruptcy is a legal proceeding that allows a person who ... Show more

In recent years, Congress has gotten close to passing legislation that would make it harder for many
individuals to file bankruptcy, but those efforts have failed. The increase in middle–age people filing
for bankruptcy is also attributed to soaring medical costs, an unstable job market and years of
aggressive credit–card marketing. The number of credit–card solicitations in the U.S. grew to 4.29
billion in 2003, from 1.52 billion a decade earlier. Last year, revolving consumer debt totaled more
than $734.1 billion, compared with $238.6 billion in 1990. In recent years, the credit–card industry
has grown increasingly aggressive in raising interest rates for certain consumers. Interest rates can
go up when a person's payments are late, or when total debt gets too high. So basically, experts say
an increase in bankruptcy filings is due to more filings from older people; the trend reflects soaring
medical costs, an unstable job market and aggressive marketing by credit–card companies; and the
positive side of filing for bankruptcy is that a bankruptcy filing allows a debtor time to negotiate a
plan to pay off creditors.

Floating Charge Essay
An issue of distinguishing a fixed and a floating charge has considerable significance particularly
for the parties involved in commercial relationships. It follows from the fact that under English law
a fixed charge has a priority over a floating charge that means the former will prevail over the latter
even though the company has granted a floating charge to the creditor prior to the creation of a fixed
security. Another reason is that under the provisions of Insolvency Act 1986 holders of a floating
charge are placed in a less favourable position than the holders of a fixed charge particularly due to
sec. 176 of the Act which prevents the distribution of a certain portion of the company's net property
to the holder of a floating charge ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
Lord Scott in Re Spectrum went further by saying that the first two criteria are not often material for
every floating charge.
When providing the distinction between the above charges the two stage process of legal
characterization developed in Agnew must be applied by the English courts. The object of the first
stage of the process is to ascertain the nature of the rights and obligations which the parties intended
to grant each other in respect of the charged assets. Once these have been ascertained, the Court can
then embark on the second stage of the process, which is one of categorization and designed to
attribute the correct legal label to the package of rights and obligations. Lord Millett's reasoning has
been approved by the House of Lords in Re Spectrum in which emphasis was given to the freedom
of the company to deal with the assets in the ordinary course of business rather than the two first
criteria focusing on the nature of the secured assets.
The breakthrough decision on the distinction of charges over book debts became the Siebe Gorman
case where Slade J held that the restrictions placed on the company's power to deal with the
proceeds of the debts gave the bank a degree of control which was inconsistent with a floating
charge and therefore the debenture given to Barclays was a fixed charge. The case caused a
significant effect to commercial practice as it

Loan Of Bonds And Preferred Stocks Are Considered...
Q2: Owners of bonds and preferred stocks are considered primarily creditors of a business.
However, in some instances they also have the capability of becoming corporate owners.
a.) Converting debt to stock equity
Convertible debt is a form of security, which in most cases issued to start–ups at the time of raising
capital. The seed investor is given a promissory note that contains a conversion feature (Kimmel &
Weygandt 2007). The conversion feature contains a mechanism in which the debt can be converted
into equity at a later date. There are several instances when the debt issued to a company by an
investor can be converted into equity. Some of them include;

These triggers can be an event or a set of events, a revenue threshold, a business milestone or any
other financing threshold. Mostly a financing event is the most preferred one.
b.) Differences between preferred stock and bonds.
A preferred stock is a form of special equity ownership. They are commonly considered a form of
investment that occurs somewhere between common shares and bonds. Bonds, on the other hand,
are a form of the debt issue. Despite the two having numerous similarities, preferred stock has a
tendency to be riskier than bonds, but they attract higher yields (Kimmel & Weygandt 2007). In an
instance a company has gone bankrupt bonds take preference over preferred stock when receiving
payments from liquidation process. To protect from market anxiety that come with bonds and
preferred stock it is advisable that they invest in convertible securities. Convertible securities can
provide income like a bond, have potential for growth based on the conversion option. Investing in
such is a sure way that an investor will not lose their investments in a volatile risk.
c.) Advantages of Tax exempt bonds to both issuer and holder
Tax–exempt bonds offer great advantages to both the bond issuer and bondholder.
For the bondholder:
Keep most of interest income – the main advantage of tax–exempt bonds is that the investor gets to
keep most the returns due to the exemption. The fact is that one does not have to pay tax on the

The famous author and playwright, Thomas Dekker was lucky enough to work with some of the
most popular and well–respected writers of his time that includes the name of Ben Johnson.
Nonetheless, irrespective of the number of plays that he did, mostly in collaboration with others, he
was always confronted with legal issues pertaining to financial matters. He was also imprisoned and
that too more than once. He was imprisoned for more than three years for the first time (Bellinger
240). Yet again, he found himself in debt of forty pounds in the year 1612 for which he was sent to
King's Bench Prison for almost seven years. Because he was imprisoned for indebt issues, he
developed negative feelings against the attitude of the king towards the people who were not able to
pay their debt. When one reads his analysis, it is pretty clear that he was not fond of the government
at that time. It is important here to mention the different kinds of debt. One kind of debt is the one
that is forced on a person without that person being responsible for it, but is only a result of lack of
concern towards financial matters. In his book The Lantern and the Candlelight, he has explained
extensively the way of living of the people during the late sixteenth and early seventeenth century.

Ratio Analysis is used for evaluation of performance of the company by internal as well as external
users. These comprises of managers, equity investors, long–term creditors and short–term creditors.
The managers are interested in the profitability and asset utilization ratios of the company as their
incentives and appraisal are based on the profitability and efficiency of asset utilization of their
respective divisions. Higher the profitability, higher is the chances of promotion. Thus, managers are
always very keen to analyze the different financial ratios of the company.
Those who invest in equity are always interested in knowing about the profitability, Market and
solvency ratios of the company. Higher profitability ratio is helpful in increasing the market value of
the company. The market ratios like dividend yield, price earnings ratio, earnings per share etc. is
useful in determining the exact position of the company's market share. Favorable market ratio
indicates the increase in market capitalization for investors and vice versa. The equity investors are
also interested in knowing the solvency ratio as high debt will pose danger to the ownership of the
company. Higher debt is harmful for the liquidity position of the company and in some worst cases;
the company even faces the risk of liquidation.

16). Furthermore, inaccurate information posses an equal threat to consumers. To illustrate, Heady
(1999) purports that an individual called the automated teller for his required payment and was
given the dollar amount, but not the change owed. However, after paying the acknowledged amount,
the consumer received a late charge. When the credit holder questioned the company, their response
was that the automation did not include the change owed because it would result in extra air time
charges on the creditor's eight hundred number. Another consumer was devastated when he accepted
an offer for a card with a $1,200.00 limit from First North American Bank, but after reaching the
limit the creditor began to lower the limit and raise the interest rate. Therefore, he acquired a higher
amount owed in interest, plus over limit fees (Heady, 1999). Furthermore, Weber and Palmer (2000),
state that when a consumer pays late, the creditor has the right to raise interest rates, however, if a
consumer does not use a card, the creditor may charge inactivity fees. Cut up the card and the
creditor is entitled to charge a closing fee.
A consumer with flawed credit suffers the most. Although creditors are happy to issue a credit card,

Legal Issues Of The Lawsuit Filed By The Creditors
In the lawsuit filed by the creditors in order to recover their money, there are a few legal issues.
They major question here is whose assets can the creditors go after– Double J Branding, Jana, or
Jamal? More in depth questions that need to be answered for this lawsuit are was the limited
partnership valid and was Jamal considered the limited partner at the time of the transaction? Also
did the loan officer and real estate agent believe in good faith that Jamal was a general partner at the
time of the transaction? Many rules are included and must be followed in order for a limited
partnership to be valid and to work properly. A limited partnership is a type of partnership that has
two types of partners– a general partner and a limited partner. The general partner of a limited
partnership invests capital and manages the business. The general partner has unlimited liability
which means they are personally liable for the debts and obligations of the limited partnership. The
limited partner in a limited partnership invests capital but does not participate in management. The
limited partner has limited liability, which means they are only liable for the debts and obligations of
the limited partnership up to their capital contributions but they are not personally liable.

anthropology in regards to economy, finance, development and debt. Sohini Kar is the author of the
article, "Recovering debts: Microfinance loan officers and the work of "proxy–creditors" in India."
One can infer this article is meant for other anthropologists who are interested in the economy and
the global finance system. In Kar's introduction she dives into the world of loan officers and their
relationship to the borrowers. Throughout the text she introduces several theories of ethical practices
and relationships to the lender and the borrower. In order to support her argument, she incorporates
other theories from various anthropologists to solidify her thoughts.
What is it about, empirically?
Sohini Kar's article revolves around the global financial market. However, her central focus is in
Kolkata, India, where many who live in the slums owe microloans to private banks. The issue Kar
raises is in a national platform, due to the fact that 60% of Indian population lacks formal financial
services (481). This is a national issue due to fact that it traps many of their citizens in a never–
ending cycle of debt, with no proper oversight. The time of her study was from 2009 to 2011, right
after the financial crisis in Western countries. The author makes a comparison of the different

Bankruptcy In The United States Bankruptcy Court
Bankruptcy is a process that allows consumers and businesses to eliminate or repay debts under the
protection of the federal bankruptcy court. An individual might file for bankruptcy because he/she
has lost his/her job and can no longer pay his/her financial obligations. A business may file for
bankruptcy because it has borrowed money that cannot be repaid due to the business failure. There
are basically six bankruptcy chapters an individual or business can file. These chapters are 7, 9, 11,
13, 12, and 15. Chapter 7 bankruptcy lasts three to six months, and can include property liquidation
or secured debt. Property liquidation means some of the individual's property may be sold by an

petition because he was behind on his mortgage payment to Chase Manhattan in the amount of
$3,700, plus he owed multiple other creditors. After filing the petition, he filed a repayment plan,
which was approved by the Court, stating he would resume making monthly payments to Chase
Manhattan and that $530 a month would be withheld from his wages and remitted to the Chapter 13
trustee, Viegelahn. Viegelahn would then make the payment to Chase Manhattan and Harris's other
creditors (SUPREME COURT OF THE UNITED STATES, 2015). After Harris again failed to make
his mortgage payments, Chase Manhattan foreclosed on his property. Trustee Viegelahn continued
to receive $530 a month from Harris' wages, which accumulated to $5, 519.22, but did not make any

Why Would A Creditor Agree To A Post-Judgment Settlement?
If you have had a collection judgment entered against you by a court of law, don't assume that you
cannot settle with your creditor. It is still possible for you to obtain a settlement of the debt you owe
for an amount that is lower than the judgment amount.
It is important to understand that where possible, you should try to negotiate and settle your debt
before a judgment is entered against you. You have more leverage before the creditor incurs attorney
fees and court costs in trying to collect from you. The mere fact that the creditor expended time and
money to file a lawsuit against you means that the creditor believes you have sufficient income or
assets to pursue.
Why would a creditor agree to a post–judgment settlement? If you can offer ... Show more content

Typically, your most significant assets such as your home are exempt or protected by law from being
seized by a judgment creditor.
Finally, a telephone call from a bankruptcy attorney to negotiate on your behalf can help you regain
some of your leverage. As soon as a judgment–creditor understands that you filing a Chapter 7 or
Chapter 13 case is a real possibility, they are motivated to settle your debt. The idea of recovering a
portion of the debt owed is much more appealing than having the debt discharged or eliminated in a
bankruptcy filing and receiving nothing. In fact, if the creditor believes that you are likely to file for
bankruptcy if a settlement is not reached, it may be possible to settle for a small fraction of what you
owe.
Once you have made the settlement payment in full, it is important that you obtain a satisfaction of
judgment executed by your creditor. This pleading should be filed with the court to give notice that
the judgment has been satisfied and so that it will be reflected on your credit report. The judgment

Does Directors Have Fiduciary Duties?
Does directors have fiduciary duties to creditors?
Shareholder primacy theory seems not support the viewpoint that shareholders owed exclusive
fiduciary duties by directors, then, other constituencies like creditors, employees and suppliers,
should directors owe fiduciary duties to them? Schwarcz indicates that when the company is
insolvency or the company want to have some high risk ventures, the company can only rely on
creditors' money. On this occasion, creditors substitute for shareholders and become the residual
claimant of the company. Hence, the following part will take creditors as an example, to illustrate
that in some special situations, directors should take creditors' interests into consideration through
the contractarian approach.
The main theory of contractarian approach is that all the people in the company are in the voluntary
contract–based relationship. This kind of voluntary contract–based relationship entitled every parties
of the contracts the rights to negotiate with each other and to reach an agreement to some specific
items. This approach come up with two arguments to argue that creditors are unnecessary to owed
fiduciary duties by directors, which are one, from the efficiency perspective, and another one is from

someone or something. A manager would have to control the whole of what a person does or an

manager includes the knowledge on how to satisfy a vast variety of people for the brand they are
representing to actually achieve within it. Data is excruciatingly important to any direction when it
comes to the responsibility they hold, a minor mistake can make a huge difference. Managing data
seems difficult, but managing the privacy within the accounts, "without making the data inaccessible
and unusable" (Burns, Businesses Look for Tech Solutions to Big Data Security Issues) has to be
taken into precaution when it is being stored within internet access. With new ways to reach
information, it has become difficult to understand and limit who sees it and what information they
will be seeing without them exposing it to others. A person 's "Social Security numbers or other
sensitive information" (Burns) can be found and used to get profit for themselves or for someone
else. According to Signe et al. about "80% of information created and used by the enterprise is the

Is Nietzsche’s Belief of Justice Sound?
Friedrich Nietzsche, in the Genealogy of Morality, dedicates his second essay to prove that justice,
is ultimately a version of the equalization of suffering, in terms of the creditor/debtor relationship.
Through the course of this paper, I will discuss whether Nietzsche's belief of justice being a form of
the equalization of suffering is sound. My argument will be presented in three phases: I will first
provide background information in reference to the creditor/debtor relationship, I will then elucidate
what Nietzsche means by his belief, and lastly, I will explain and evaluate Nietzsche's concept of
justice and the equalization of suffering.
As mentioned earlier, Nietzsche asserts that the creditor and debtor relationship is a form of the
equalization of suffering. He identifies that the primary notion of guilt stems from the material
concept of debt. Essentially, debt is described as owing, usually money, to someone. On the other
hand, guilt is demarcated as the process of repaying debt, according to Nietzsche. A relationship
takes form when a debtor and creditor agree on a deal, agreement, or loan. When this transpires, "the
debtor inspires confidence that the promise of repayment will be honored, in order to give a
guarantee of the solemnity and sanctity of his promise..." (Nietzsche 40). This indicates that the
promise will be fulfilled regardless of any occurrences. Nietzsche affirms that if individuals have the
ability to make promises, then they also have the ability

The Pros And Cons Of Creditors
Creditors are the individuals or financial institutions that loan money to the firms. Creditors tend to
receive interest on the money they loan out to these retail stores. For instance Tusky's first
supermarket branch was set up through acquiring bank loans. Thus, the larger the bank loan, the
higher the interest paid back to the bank. This shows how the retail industry requires large capital to
operate in. Many of the large corporations have gotten loans from banks in order to finance their
operations and to raise capital. The creditors hence have a say with regard to the financial contracts
and in case the firm goes down, the creditors have a first say basis in claiming the assets.

Suppliers should also be able to respond to emergency calls in case of certain events such as
disasters or even large orders. In other words they should be essential and reliable. The big
supermarkets such as Nakumatt tend to have strong quality requirements from their contracted
suppliers and in turn they settle their end of the deal instantly as agreed. Conclusion. The retail
industry in Kenya is a good ground to invest your money. However it requires a lot of capital to set
up and operate. The government is also lowering trade restrictions in the country so as to attract
more and more investors to invest in the industry. To note further, the retail industry in Kenya has
contributed to job opportunities and hence made the citizens to earn a living. Also, the tax that is

vote on it, stockholders must vote on it, and the court must approve it. However, the court has the
authority to cram down a plan that they approve of that was not accepted by a certain class of
creditors or stockholders. The court can also change the nature of the liquidation from a Chapter 11
to a Chapter 7 if they feel as if a workable plan is not possible, which can cause interested parties to
be more open to negotiations. In the financial statements, any gains, losses, revenues, and expenses
that occur as a result from the reorganization should be reported separately from operating activities

There are three parties to a contract of a guarantee. The person who guarantees the performance of a
promise or the liability of a third person is called the guarantor (surety). The person, on whose
behalf the guarantee is given is the principal debtor, and the person to whom the guarantee is given
is called the creditor.
The obligation of the surety, under a guarantee issued, arises when there is a default to perform the
promise by the person on whose behalf the guarantee is given. The liability of a surety runs parallel
to the liability of a principal debtor towards the creditor. On failure of the principal debtor to
perform the obligation under the contract, the liability of the surety with respect to the guarantee
starts. The bank may be called to perform its obligation under a bank guarantee issued by it.
Therefore, though bank guarantees are non–fund credits, the probability of their turning into fund–
based credit is high.

Here are the key points about filing for Chapter 7 bankruptcy:- Chapter 7 is known as a "liquidation" bankruptcy. It eliminates most unsecured debts like credit cards, medical bills, and personal loans. Secured debts like mortgages and auto loans may or may not be discharged depending on the value of the collateral.- To qualify for Chapter 7, debtors must pass the "means test" which determines if they have sufficient income left over after expenses to repay a portion of unsecured debts over 5 years. If they fail the means test, they may only be eligible for Chapter 13. - The bankruptcy trustee will liquidate (sell) any non-exempt assets above a certain value to repay creditors

  • 1. What Is Meant by Saying That Accounting Information Should... "The Framework states that the objective of financial statements is to provide information about the financial position, performance and changes in financial position of an entity that is useful to a wide range of users in making economic decisions." What is meant by saying that accounting information should be ‘decision useful'? As stated in the AASB Framework, financial statements play an utmost important role to a variety of users, which mainly consist of the investors, employees, lenders, suppliers and other trade creditors, customers, governments and their agencies, as well as the public, in making vital financial decisions.

Lenders are only willing to fund loans when they have the knowledge that there is an ability to repay this principal debt at the end of the specific period and make interest payments periodically as they fall due. As the lenders, such as the banks, are concerned with earning returns and for a secured investment, they will in particularly look at the amount of assets – cash and those that will soon be converted to cash, and to "compare it against the liabilities falling due in the future" ( Kloot et al., 1992, p. 28). For a ‘protection buffer' for the bank should there be any losses in the entity that borrows, the bank will notice the amount of ownership capital (Kloot et al., 1992). Suppliers and other trade creditors use the financial information to rate the ability to achieve their objectives of maximising the ‘rate of return on funds supplied' (Whittred et al, 2004). Thus, they will be interested in reports that show the ability to pay for the liabilities as they fall due, just as how lenders will search for these specific information. Governments and their agencies is another specific group of users interested in abstracting information with a different objective of monitoring and regulating an entity's activities, performance and profits, since this will affect the nation's employment level and aids in determining the taxation policies they should be implementing to best suit the given situation.

This was due to an 18.2% increase in shipment volume and a 1.3% increase in net revenue per barrel. Volume increased by .2 million barrels to 1.6 million barrels for the year ended December 30, 2006 as compared to 1.4 million barrels for the year ended December 31, 2005. The increase in volume was a result of increases in the Samuel Adams brand family and the Twisted Tea brand family. Gross profit in 2005 was at $103.72 (59.4%) per barrel at year end and in 2006 it fell to $101.91 (57.6%) per barrel. The decrease in gross profit was primarily due to an increase in cost of goods sold, as to compared to the prior year which was partially offset by price increases. Cost of goods sold increased to $75.16 per barrel for the year ended December 30, 2006 as to the previous year which was $70.99. The increase was caused by higher packaging material and supply chain cost, as well as shifts in the product and package mix.

  • 5. My Options For Clearing Debt Your Options for Clearing Debt Debt is something most of us will experience at one point or another in our lives, but very few of us actually discuss. Not only is it sometimes difficult to admit (to others and to yourself) that you 've fallen into debt, but it 's a topic that few of us are actually qualified to talk about impartially. It 's also something that 's very specific, and will differ greatly from person to person, so here, instead of seeking to answer all the questions, we 've instead decided to offer some more general advice. These are some of the general options you might want to consider if you are dealing with debt and are struggling to understand what your next step should be. Note, however, that before you go through with any of the options listed below, you 'll want to open a dialogue with your creditor and see if you can reach an agreement with them directly. Debt Management Plan (DMP) – As the name suggests, a DMP is effectively a plan setup with a provider that will take all of your disparate debts and compile them into one, simple monthly payment. This is particularly helpful if you have managed to build up a lot of smaller debts (credit cards, overdrafts, etc) and want to keep them organised in one place so you don 't forget about them. You 'd be surprised how often that happens! You can set up a DMP either with your existing creditors, or with a third party firm, but whomever you use, there will be setup and handling fees to consider. As previously ...

  • 7. Are You Considering Applying For An Iva? Are you considering applying for an IVA? This guide weighs up the pros & cons so you can make an informed decision about whether an IVA is the right debt solution for you. If you want to know more about IVAs, or would like to discuss your options for FREE with one of our debt advisers, please don't hesitate to call using our freephone number 0800 280 2816. GET ADVICE NOW Advantages of an IVA It is affordable: Monthly IVA payments are calculated based on what you can reasonably afford, whilst still maintaining a comfortable lifestyle. Moreover, as part of your IVA, all your unsecured debts (with interest and charges frozen) are put into one affordable monthly total payment, so you don't have to worry about your debts increasing. It is ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... Legal action is stopped: Once you enter into an IVA, your unsecured creditors can't take any further legal action against you. This protects you from bankruptcy as long as you adhere to the terms of your IVA. Your home is safe: An IVA won't normally affect your home, so as long as you maintain your mortgage payments, you won't have to sell your home. It is very rare that creditors will ask you to sell your home, and if they do, you have the opportunity to reject this clause and not proceed with the IVA proposal. You pay something back: An IVA allows you to repay more of your debts to your creditors than if you were to go bankrupt. Become debt–free quicker: An IVA is one of the fastest ways to clear your debts. IVAs usually last 5 years – however this could be extended by a further 12 months if you can't release equity from your property. At the end of this period, the rest of your debts are completely written off. Keep your vehicle: You will normally be able to keep your vehicle during an IVA. As long as you need the vehicle (for work, or for generally getting around) it is unlikely that a creditor will ask you to get rid of it. However, if they do, you can simply reject their stipulation and not proceed with the IVA proposal. IVAs have a great deal of flexibility: If your financial circumstances change, you can request a 'payment break' of up to six months, or ask for a 15% payment reduction. So, if you lose your job or find yourself in a difficult

Personal Bankruptcy Case If you are planning to file a personal bankruptcy case, you should understand that the law requires you to treat all of your creditors similarly according to the type of debt they hold. The law prohibits you from "preferring" one creditor over the others. If a debtor makes a payment to a creditor shortly prior to the petition date, the law presumes that it was a preferential payment. If a payment is proven to be a preference, the law allows the trustee the authority to recover the money paid by the debtor directly from the creditor that received the payment. Pursuant to 11 USC §547, a preferential payment occurs when: a debtor that is insolvent transfers assets to a creditor valued in excess of $600 for a past debt the creditor obtains more than it would have in a Chapter 7 filing ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... The main consequence of making a preferential payment is that the trustee is allowed to take action to recoup the funds or property that was transferred on behalf of the bankruptcy estate and the other creditors. A creditor that has received an alleged preferential payment has certain defenses available to it to challenge the presumption that the payment was a preference. Pursuant to 11 U.S.C. 547(c), the defenses available to the creditor include: concurrent trades for new value given payments made in the "ordinary course of business" or made pursuant to "ordinary business terms" new value is brought to the debtor by security interests that secure ...

The relationship between the company and the government is through regulatory requirements, labor standards and human rights. Their role is to provide guidance of legal expectations for the company to operate within. They control policies, laws, and/or funding resources. If we act in a sociably responsible manner and act in accordance with laws placed on financial institutions, they will not have to take legal action against the company which results in court fees, state and federal fines. The relationship between the company and the debtors manifest through cost and fees passed down to them. Their role is fundamental because the revenue for the company is based on their ability and willingness to pay for the debt amassed by them over a period of time. How well the company does directly impacts the options we are able to afford the debtors for repayment on their account. Bad investment or reputation impact us financially through loss of creditor contractors and investors which means we would no longer be able to offer them low to zero interest on repayment of their debt because we need to collect as much money possible.

As well we will look at how s588V allows creditors to be able to recover some of their losses if the courts are able to justify the piercing of the corporate veil of the holding company by proving that the holding company was aware of the subsidiary's insolvency status this will allow the subsidiary's liquidator to obtain assets from holding company to fund subsidiary's liabilities.

  • 37. Bankruptcy: Frightening Reality Essay Since the 1960s, personal bankruptcy has often served as a refuge for the young and struggling. Bankruptcy lawyers say younger and less–educated people tended to rack up too much debt while starting families and jobs, without a savings cushion to carry them through lean times. That's changing, as personal bankruptcy filings hit all–time highs. Last year, there were more than 1.6 million such filings, nearly twice as many as a decade earlier. Some experts say much of the increase is being driven by older people, many with decades of work experience in white–collar jobs. In 2001, per capita filings by people ages 45 to 54 increased 58% from a decade earlier, according to one study. Bankruptcy is a legal proceeding that allows a person who ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... In recent years, Congress has gotten close to passing legislation that would make it harder for many individuals to file bankruptcy, but those efforts have failed. The increase in middle–age people filing for bankruptcy is also attributed to soaring medical costs, an unstable job market and years of aggressive credit–card marketing. The number of credit–card solicitations in the U.S. grew to 4.29 billion in 2003, from 1.52 billion a decade earlier. Last year, revolving consumer debt totaled more than $734.1 billion, compared with $238.6 billion in 1990. In recent years, the credit–card industry has grown increasingly aggressive in raising interest rates for certain consumers. Interest rates can go up when a person's payments are late, or when total debt gets too high. So basically, experts say an increase in bankruptcy filings is due to more filings from older people; the trend reflects soaring medical costs, an unstable job market and aggressive marketing by credit–card companies; and the positive side of filing for bankruptcy is that a bankruptcy filing allows a debtor time to negotiate a plan to pay off creditors.

  • 39. Floating Charge Essay An issue of distinguishing a fixed and a floating charge has considerable significance particularly for the parties involved in commercial relationships. It follows from the fact that under English law a fixed charge has a priority over a floating charge that means the former will prevail over the latter even though the company has granted a floating charge to the creditor prior to the creation of a fixed security. Another reason is that under the provisions of Insolvency Act 1986 holders of a floating charge are placed in a less favourable position than the holders of a fixed charge particularly due to sec. 176 of the Act which prevents the distribution of a certain portion of the company's net property to the holder of a floating charge ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... Lord Scott in Re Spectrum went further by saying that the first two criteria are not often material for every floating charge. When providing the distinction between the above charges the two stage process of legal characterization developed in Agnew must be applied by the English courts. The object of the first stage of the process is to ascertain the nature of the rights and obligations which the parties intended to grant each other in respect of the charged assets. Once these have been ascertained, the Court can then embark on the second stage of the process, which is one of categorization and designed to attribute the correct legal label to the package of rights and obligations. Lord Millett's reasoning has been approved by the House of Lords in Re Spectrum in which emphasis was given to the freedom of the company to deal with the assets in the ordinary course of business rather than the two first criteria focusing on the nature of the secured assets. The breakthrough decision on the distinction of charges over book debts became the Siebe Gorman case where Slade J held that the restrictions placed on the company's power to deal with the proceeds of the debts gave the bank a degree of control which was inconsistent with a floating charge and therefore the debenture given to Barclays was a fixed charge.

Debtors and Creditors Debtors and Creditors The famous author and playwright, Thomas Dekker was lucky enough to work with some of the most popular and well–respected writers of his time that includes the name of Ben Johnson. Nonetheless, irrespective of the number of plays that he did, mostly in collaboration with others, he was always confronted with legal issues pertaining to financial matters.

Yet again, he found himself in debt of forty pounds in the year 1612 for which he was sent to King's Bench Prison for almost seven years. Because he was imprisoned for indebt issues, he developed negative feelings against the attitude of the king towards the people who were not able to pay their debt. When one reads his analysis, it is pretty clear that he was not fond of the government at that time. It is important here to mention the different kinds of debt. One kind of debt is the one that is forced on a person without that person being responsible for it, but is only a result of lack of concern towards financial matters. In his book The Lantern and the Candlelight, he has explained extensively the way of living of the people during the late sixteenth and early seventeenth century.

To illustrate, Heady (1999) purports that an individual called the automated teller for his required payment and was given the dollar amount, but not the change owed. However, after paying the acknowledged amount, the consumer received a late charge. When the credit holder questioned the company, their response was that the automation did not include the change owed because it would result in extra air time charges on the creditor's eight hundred number. Another consumer was devastated when he accepted an offer for a card with a $1,200.00 limit from First North American Bank, but after reaching the limit the creditor began to lower the limit and raise the interest rate. Therefore, he acquired a higher amount owed in interest, plus over limit fees (Heady, 1999). Furthermore, Weber and Palmer (2000), state that when a consumer pays late, the creditor has the right to raise interest rates, however, if a consumer does not use a card, the creditor may charge inactivity fees.

It is important to understand that where possible, you should try to negotiate and settle your debt before a judgment is entered against you. You have more leverage before the creditor incurs attorney fees and court costs in trying to collect from you.

Typically, your most significant assets such as your home are exempt or protected by law from being seized by a judgment creditor. Finally, a telephone call from a bankruptcy attorney to negotiate on your behalf can help you regain some of your leverage.

The idea of recovering a portion of the debt owed is much more appealing than having the debt discharged or eliminated in a bankruptcy filing and receiving nothing. In fact, if the creditor believes that you are likely to file for bankruptcy if a settlement is not reached, it may be possible to settle for a small fraction of what you owe. Once you have made the settlement payment in full, it is important that you obtain a satisfaction of judgment executed by your creditor.

Shareholder primacy theory seems not support the viewpoint that shareholders owed exclusive fiduciary duties by directors, then, other constituencies like creditors, employees and suppliers, should directors owe fiduciary duties to them? Schwarcz indicates that when the company is insolvency or the company want to have some high risk ventures, the company can only rely on creditors' money. On this occasion, creditors substitute for shareholders and become the residual claimant of the company. Hence, the following part will take creditors as an example, to illustrate that in some special situations, directors should take creditors' interests into consideration through the contractarian approach. The main theory of contractarian approach is that all the people in the company are in the voluntary contract–based relationship. This kind of voluntary contract–based relationship entitled every parties of the contracts the rights to negotiate with each other and to reach an agreement to some specific items.

  • 65. Is Nietzsche’s Belief of Justice Sound? Friedrich Nietzsche, in the Genealogy of Morality, dedicates his second essay to prove that justice, is ultimately a version of the equalization of suffering, in terms of the creditor/debtor relationship. Through the course of this paper, I will discuss whether Nietzsche's belief of justice being a form of the equalization of suffering is sound. My argument will be presented in three phases: I will first provide background information in reference to the creditor/debtor relationship, I will then elucidate what Nietzsche means by his belief, and lastly, I will explain and evaluate Nietzsche's concept of justice and the equalization of suffering. As mentioned earlier, Nietzsche asserts that the creditor and debtor relationship is a form of the equalization of suffering. He identifies that the primary notion of guilt stems from the material concept of debt. Essentially, debt is described as owing, usually money, to someone. On the other hand, guilt is demarcated as the process of repaying debt, according to Nietzsche. A relationship takes form when a debtor and creditor agree on a deal, agreement, or loan. When this transpires, "the debtor inspires confidence that the promise of repayment will be honored, in order to give a guarantee of the solemnity and sanctity of his promise..." (Nietzsche 40). This indicates that the promise will be fulfilled regardless of any occurrences. Nietzsche affirms that if individuals have the ability to make promises, then they also have the ability ...

Many of the large corporations have gotten loans from banks in order to finance their operations and to raise capital.

  • 76. Contrastcies And Chapter 11 Bankruptcy 4. Discuss the differences between Chapter 7 and Chapter 11 Bankruptcies. Bankruptcy occurs when a business is facing a financial crisis. Chapter 7 is known as a liquidation bankruptcy while Chapter 11 is known as a reorganization bankruptcy. In Chapter 7, there will be no business at the end of the proceedings. At the beginning of liquidation, there is a court–appointed trustee who is entrusted with the preservation of assets and loss prevention. The trustee must also perform a series of operations including the transfer of assets to their control, compiling financial records, and obtaining possession of corporate records. After this, there is a court–ordered meeting of creditors to decide upon next steps. The creditors can choose to either ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... The plan should be able to prove effective for the company to continue as a going concern after its implementation. In some cases, there is a plan already prepared before bankruptcy is filed, saving both time, negotiation, and legal fees. For a plan to be implemented, all classes of creditors must vote on it, stockholders must vote on it, and the court must approve it. However, the court has the authority to cram down a plan that they approve of that was not accepted by a certain class of creditors or stockholders. The court can also change the nature of the liquidation from a Chapter 11 to a Chapter 7 if they feel as if a workable plan is not possible, which can cause interested parties to be more open to negotiations. In the financial statements, any gains, losses, revenues, and expenses that occur as a result from the reorganization should be reported separately from operating activities but still before tax. Interest does not normally accrue on debts during the reorganization process because of the order for relief. Debts subject to compromise (those that will probably be lowered because of the reorganization) are disclosed separately.

  • 78. Case Study Of Section 176 Of The Companies Act 1965 In 1997, many companies in Malaysia were struggling to survive due to the economic downturn in Southeast Asia. During the financial crisis, Section 176 of the Companies Act 1965 was regularly used by various companies so as to buy time to restructure their finances and to get protection from the creditors by obtaining a restraining order that ceases the proceedings against them. As a result, the protection given under the Section 176 of the Companies Act 1965 was abused and exploited by the debtor company in getting the advantage for the sole purpose of deferring the repayment of debts to the creditors.

Advantages And Disadvantages Of Working Money 3) DRAWING POWER Drawing Power is the amount of Working Capital funds the borrower is allowed to draw from the Working Capital limit allotted to him. Because the working capital limit is usually allotted to a borrower against security of Stock and Book Debts, the amount of funds a borrower is allowed to draw is calculated by considering the total value of Stock plus total value of Book Debts for the month after deducting the margin.

Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... There are three parties to a contract of a guarantee. The person who guarantees the performance of a promise or the liability of a third person is called the guarantor (surety). The person, on whose behalf the guarantee is given is the principal debtor, and the person to whom the guarantee is given is called the creditor. The obligation of the surety, under a guarantee issued, arises when there is a default to perform the promise by the person on whose behalf the guarantee is given. The liability of a surety runs parallel to the liability of a principal debtor towards the creditor. On failure of the principal debtor to perform the obligation under the contract, the liability of the surety with respect to the guarantee starts. The bank may be called to perform its obligation under a bank guarantee issued by it. Therefore, though bank guarantees are non–fund credits, the probability of their turning into fund– based credit is high. In order to ensure that the guarantee executed by the banker does not remain in force for an indefinite period, it is stipulated that the guarantee would remain in force the period specified therein, on the expiry of which no claims would be entertained by the ...
