Luis and Elena Gonzales are a newly married couple in their mid-20s. Luis is a senior at a state university and expects to graduate in the summer of 2021. Elena graduated last spring with a degree in marketing and recently started working as a sales rep for Media Focus Corporation. She supports both of them on her monthly salary of $4,250 after taxes. The Gonzales family currently pay all their expenses by cash or check. They would, however, like to use a bank credit card for some of their transactions. Because neither Luis or Elena has ever applied for a credit card, they approach you for help. Critical Thinking Questions Advise the couple on how to fill out a credit application. Explain to them the procedure that the bank will probably follow in processing their application. Tell them about credit scoring and how the bank will arrive at a credit decision. What kind of advice would you offer the Gonzales family on the best use of their card? What would you tell them about building a strong credit record?.

Experian® has released additional findings from a national survey among more than 1,000 millennials, ages 19 to 34, showing that this generation struggles with using credit as a tool to enhance their lives. This struggle can be attributed to unawareness of credit terms and conditions and a mixed attitude regarding credit cards. A majority (64 percent) of survey respondents consider them “dangerous,” while almost 30 percent have maxed out a card.

51. Lance H. and Wanda B. Dean are married and live at 431 Yucca Drive, Santa Fe, NM 87501 . Lance works for the convention bureau of the Tax Forms local Chamber of Commerce, and Wanda is employed part-time as a Problem paralegal for a law firm. During 2021, the Deans had the following receipts: ProConnect" Tax Wanda was previously married to John Allen. When they divorced several years ago, Wanda was awarded custody of their two children, Penny and Kyle. (Note: Wanda has never issued a Form 8332 waiver.) Under the divorce decree, John was obligated to pay alimony and child support - the alimony payments were to terminate if Wanda remarried.In July, while going to lunch in downtown Santa Fe, Wanda was injured by a tour bus. Because the driver was clearly at fault, the owner of the bus, Roadrunner Touring Company, paid her medical expenses (including a one-week stay in a hospital). To avoid a lawsuit, Roadrunner also transferred $90,000 to her in settlement of the personal injuries she sustained. The Deans had the following expenditures for 2021: The life insurance policy was taken out by Lance several years ago and designates Wanda as the beneficiary. As a part-time employee, Wanda is excluded from coverage under her employer's pension plan. Consequently, she provides for her own retirement with a traditional IRA obtained at a local trust company. Because the mayor is a member of the lcal Chamber of Commerce, LancePenny graduated from high school on May 9, 2021, and is undecided about college. During 2021, she earned $8,500 (placed in a savings account) playing a harp in the lobby of a local hotel. Wayne is Wanda's widower father who died on December 20, 2021. For the past few years, Wayne qualified as a dependent of the Deans. Federal income tax withheld is $3,900 (Lance) and $1,800 (Wanda). The proper amount of Social Security and Medicare tax was withheld. The Deans received the appropriate coronavirus recovery rebates (economic impact payments); related questions in ProConnect Tax should be ignored. Determine the Federal income tax for 2021 for the Deans on a joint return by completing the appropriate forms. They do not own and did not use any virtual currency during the year, and they do not want to contribute to the Presidential Election Campaign Fund. If an overpayment results, it is to be refunded to them. Suggested software: ProConnect Tax..

One of the most important functions (protocols) in a packet-switched network is ROUTING. An array of routing algorithms have been invented, and many of them implemented. With respect to routing, the Internet is composed of inter-connected regions called autonomous systems (AS). There are 2 layers of routing in the Internet: interior and exterior routing. An interior routing protocol (IRP) operates within an AS. An exterior routing protocol (ERP) operates between AS's. IRP's and ERP's have evolved. Routing protocols may have serious security vulnerabilities that could potentially be exploited by hackers. CISCO has monopolized the router market, but is facing increasing foreign competition. Discuss routing in the Internet and other networks (algorithms, standards, implementations, quality-of-service, security risks, router trends, etc.) ..

Ohio rail disaster re-ignites oversight debate (February 14, 2023) -- A train derailment in February 2023 that launched a fusillade of toxic chemicals into the air in East Palestine, Ohio, has now inflamed another safety concern. The nearly 2-mile Norfolk Southern train that derailed and caught fire on February 3 was carrying toxic and flammable materials, including hundreds of thousands of pounds of vinyl chloride, a common organic chemical used in the production of plastics. During the four years of Donald Trumps (R) Presidency the White House and Republicans in Congress sided with the rail industrys battle against additional safety measures and successfully rolled back health, hazardous materials, and safety regulations put in place under President Barack Obama (D). Now there is pushback from Republicans in Congress to the proposal of the Biden Administration to re-institute rail regulations from the Obama Administration. In addition, there is disagreement between the major freight railroads and the federal government over whether workers can use a government hotline to report safety concerns. After the fiery Ohio derailment, railroad firms made a promise to join the same hotline reporting program that airlines use. Now the freight railroads are disciplining workers who report safety concerns. Their opposition to this hotline which only increases protection for public is just part of a decades-old effort to suppress reporting of possible hazards so that they can appear to the public and regulators as acting more safely than they are, said Debbie Berkowitz, a former top-ranking official at the Occupational Safety and Health Administration during the Obama administration that put in regulations on the rail industry. For years, major freight railroads have resisted joining a worker safety hotline because they believe their own internal reporting systems are sufficient. But railroad unions say without federal protection, workers don't use hotlines because they fear retribution. Passenger service Amtrak uses the government reporting program, but none of the big freight railroads have signed on to it. A. Construct a market diagram for rail transport of hazardous materials assuming both supply and demand have some elasticity and assuming safety regulations are in place from the Obama Administration. Assume supply and demand have some elasticity. Label initial demand and supply and price and quantity with subscript 1. B. Construct a combined market diagram of clean air and clean water adjacent and above rail tracks that transport hazardous materials assuming: (i) demand has some elasticity, (ii) supply is perfectly inelastic, and (iii) safety regulations are in place from the Obama Administration. Label initial demand and supply and price and quantity with subscript 1. C. Return to the market diagram for rail transport in 5A, make changes to the market as result of actions under the Trump Administration. Label new demand and/or supply curves and n.

Office Space is the first feature-length film directed by writer/creator Mike Judge. It is based on his "Milton" animated shorts. Office Space did not generate stunning box office on its original release in 1999, but the film, along with red Swingline staplers, have since attained cult status. This film chronicles the dreary life of Peter Gibbons (Ron Livingston), a software engineer cubicle dweller at Initech. Peter has a frustrating commute, tiresome coworkers, an inane boss and a girlfriend that he's pretty sure is cheating on him. The only bright spots in his life are his two friends at work, Samir (Ajay Naidu), and the unfortunately named Michael Bolton (David Herman), his laid-back construction worker neighbor Lawrence (Diedrich Bader), and Joanna, a waitress at the local Chotchkie's restaurant whom he worships from afar (Jennifer Aniston). After enduring a morning at work consisting of repetitive reprimands about the minutia of TPS reports (the acronym is never explained), the bleak office atmosphere takes a tense turn when the employees are informed that Initech is bringing in consultants to help improve efficiency. All the Initechers are nervous about interviewing for their own jobs, but Milton (Stephen Root), a twitchy, mumbling long-time employee, is only concerned that he will either be asked to move his desk once again, or that someone will notice he's kept his beloved red Swingline stapler after the company had switched to another brand. Michael Bolton threatens to unleash the virus he's been working on, or join Samir in trashing the horrible fax machine they're forced to deal with. On Friday Peter attempts to sneak out early, but is caught by his arrogant boss, Bill Lumbergh (Gary Cole), and as feared is requested to work over the weekend. Peter finally leaves the office and reluctantly joins his girlfriend, Anne (Alexandra Wentworth), at an appointment with an occupational hypnotherapist that she's hoping can help him have a more positive outlook on life. The hypnotherapist does indeed get Peter into a very relaxed state, but suffers a fatal heart attack before he can bring him out. The next morning, Peter ignores his alarm clock, blowing off working on Saturday and Sunday as requested. He also manages to sleep through the 17 messages left for him by Lumbergh. He takes an angry call from Anne, who's demanding an explanation for his odd behavior. Peter responds by hanging up on her, and Anne responds by breaking up with him and confirming that yes she WAS cheating on him. Peter returns to bed for the remainder of the day. On Monday, instead of going to work, Peter goes to Chotchkie's and finally asks Joanna out for lunch. They get to know each other and he tells her of his plan to not quit, but just stop going to work. They also discover a mutual appreciation for the TV series Kung Fu, and a date is made to watch it later at Peter's apartment. Peter then heads over to the Initech office to retrieve his address book, and runs in.

Nutri (Pty) Ltd is a company which manufactures and distributes a range of industrial chemical products to other manufacturers. You are the audit manager on this audit. While conducting risk assessment procedures on the 31 March 2022 audit, you gathered the following information, about the company: 1. During the year Edgar Hoover, the newly appointed chairman of the board, requested the resignation of the financial director John Dillinger a conservative, independently minded, and well-respected chartered accountant who had been at Nutri (Pty) Ltd for some years. John Dillinger had angered the chairman by refusing to implement certain accounting policies which would improve the performance of the company as reflected in the financial statements. As their working relationship had become untenable, John Dillinger resigned. John Dillinger has sued the company for R5 million in respect of monies due to him when he left the company some months prior to year-end. 2. John Dillinger had been replaced by Floyd Nelson, a young and inexperienced but aggressive chartered accountant whom the chairman had recruited from another company. Edgar Hoover also appointed Floyd Nelson as chairman of the audit committee. 3. Under the direction of Edgar Hoover, the company has recently set up several joint ventures and other business alliances and a fair number of transactions have taken place between them and Chemtrade (Pty) Ltd. Documentation relating to these entities and transactions appears to be minimal. 4. The valuation of inventory at year-end had in prior years been conducted in conjunction with the external auditors, by an independent specialist chemical engineer on the insistence of John Dillinger to satisfy audit requirements. For the current year Floyd Nelson decided against this practice as he deemed it unnecessary, stating that 'the auditors don't make the rules here; they must accept the valuation arrived at by myself and the production manager'. 5. During the financial year, the company ceased production of a particular range of chemicals which it only exported to Europe. Due to the slow economy in Europe, the orders for this range of chemicals have virtually ceased. However, the company has a very large stockpile of this range of chemicals and the plant and equipment used in the manufacture of these products have been lying idle for the seven months prior to the year-end. According to the production manager, there are no plans to commence with production of this range or to adapt the plant and equipment to manufacture another type of chemical. 6. During the financial year, a government environmental agency filed a lawsuit against the company for the material sum of nearly R10 million for what it describes as 'extensive environmental damage to certain wetland areas'. The matter is being handled by the company's lawyers, but at the financial year-end the matter was unresolved. Should the decision go against the company, there could be serious conseque.

Mini Case 10.3: Starting off on the wrong foot Racy (name disguised), a multinational automotive supplier, won a tender to supply components to a US-based auto manufacturer. Local production of parts in Brazil, South Africa, and Thailand was requested. Racy had facilities in the first two countries but the Thailand plant had to be built up. Racy had a facility in Malaysia and planned to use Malaysian resources to the improve Thai facility. The US client handled the project through its purchasing department in Australia. To be close to the customer, Racy decided to locate the project base in Australia as well. Australia has the additional advantage of sitting right in between Malaysia and Brazil from a time zone perspective. As Racy was short of qualified staff in Australia, it transferred a project manager from India to Australia. The new project started with a kick-off meeting in Australia. At Racy, such a meeting typically takes two days. The Malay project members, however, left prematurely complaining to a corporate project management facilitator about the project manager. What had happened? The Indian project manager, technically highly capable, but without any international leadership experience, introduced himself with: I am the king. In my local language, my name stands for king. I stem from the highest caste in India. Then he requested input from the Malays in a brainstorming meeting that the Malays were not prepared for. The Malays had the suspicion that the project manager had deliberately not briefed them before the kick-off meeting to make them look dull in front of their Australian colleagues. They were afraid of getting fewer tasks assigned at the kick-off workshop than the other sites. Fewer tasks meant a lower income for their local site, translating into less importance and fewer jobs. The Malays wanted to discuss their concerns with the Indian project manager. However, they had the impression that he was too arrogant to listen. So the Malays gave up and returned to their subsidiary, leaving the project manager puzzled. What was going on? Certainly, this was the worst project start one could imagine. The external facilitator who the Malays had turned to suggested a second kickoff meeting, this time facilitated by her. Question : If you were the facilitator, what would you do to get the project back on track?.

Larry submitted an employment application to John's Computer Repair Company. Larry's application indicated he had over a decade of experience repairing computers, cell phones, tablets, and other technology. Because Larry's written qualifications seemed to meet a pressing current need, John's Computer Repair hired him without doing a background check, contacting his references, or checking his criminal record. If John's Computer Repair had done any of these things, it would have learned that Larry had a history of violent behavior. He was known to have anger management issues that commonly resulted in fights. He also committed an assault and battery against a co-worker three years earlier that resulted in a one year prison sentence. Larry did not disclose this on his job application, nor did John's Computer Repair ask. Tom, a long-time John's Computer Repair employee, angered Larry when Tom tried to tell Larry how to do his job. Larry attacked and injured Tom. As a result, Tom required medical care and rehabilitation, and suffered lost wages. If Tom sues John's Computer Repair, what would his claim against John's Computer Repair be? What elements would Tom need to prove to win his case? Discuss how the above facts relate to the elements of the claim. After considering the facts and the elements needed to win, do you believe Tom's lawsuit against John's Computer Repair will be successful?.

Leadership Training on the Program at Insight Communications Insight Communications (made a part of Time Warner in 2012, who subsequently merged with Comcast in 2014) offered cable television and Internet service to more than 750,000 customers in Indiana, Kentucky, and Ohio. One reason Insight was such an attractive investment for Time Warner was that the company had developed a good reputation for customer service. That reputation rested signifi- cantly on the hard work of the companys customer care teams, including call center employees, service technicians, and sales representatives. The supervisors of these teams did not always know how to ensure that their employees delivered excellent service. Insight tended to select people for the supervisory jobs based on excellent technical skillschoosing people who performed well as customer service representatives or service technicians. Once in their new positions, these supervisors had to figure out for themselves how to lead others. And of course, they were not always sure how to do that. Insight therefore put together a leadership training program for its supervisors. By exploring the idea with professional organizations, the company found that no existing training program tar- geted supervisory-level employees in cablecompanies. So Insight hired one of the organizations, the Cable Center, to develop a program for the companys needs. The Cable Center created a two- and-a-half-day class, and Insight tried it out on five supervisors as a test. The programs content included information about how to set goals, measure results, and develop employees, as well as about leadership skills. The supervisors who participated in this pi- lot program were pleased with what they learned about leading others. Matt Stephens, a technical operations supervisor in Ohio, found the assessment of his personality to be especially helpful. With greater self- knowledge plus ideas for task-oriented management and ideas for coaching, Stephens reported feeling he was much better prepared to serve as a leader. Higher-level managers agreed that the leadership training was helpful. Gregg Graff, Insights senior vice president of field operations, says that when he monitored customer-service phone calls of employees whose supervisors had been trained, he noticed that the quality of assistance had improved. He attributes that improvement to better coaching by the supervisors. The company credited better customer service for increases in Insights number of customers and level of earnings. Questions 1. Insight Communications promotes employees with good technical skills into supervisory positions and then teaches them leadership skills. Is this the best way for Insight to get supervisors to lead well? Why or why not? 2. Identify three principles of leadership from this chapter that you think would be most important to include in the training for supervisors at Insight. Briefly explain why you selected these princi.
