Decision-Making in a Global Economy
In a recent State of the Union Address, the President of the United States announced the formation of the "National Export Initiative," an important endeavor that is necessary for long-term, sustainable economic growth for the country. The president's goal is to double exports within 5 years, which, it is hoped, should reduce unemployment by adding 2 million jobs.
This is the first time in history that the United States has put a real focus on government-wide export promotion.
Since then, the president has signed an Executive Order that formed the "Export Promotion Cabinet" within the presidential administration. The Department of Commerce is an important player in this initiative and is charged with making sure that U.S. businesses can actively participate in international markets by increasing their exports of goods, services, and agricultural products.
Part 1b
If you were a member of the Cabinet, what would you do to achieve these goals?
Address the following in 1,000+ words:
1. Increase exports of small and medium-sized businesses.
a. What kind of programs should be put in place to improve information?
b. What kind of technical assistance should be given to first-time exporters?
i. What kinds of education do first time-exporters need to do business overseas?

ACC 680 Final Project Guidelines and Rubric
Overview
There seems to be a general misconception that accountants working in many organizations—such as a local CPA firm or an organization that is not publicly
traded—will not be impacted by the concerns of international accounting. Globalization, however, continues to shrink the global market into a seemingly smaller
playing field, making connections from businesses of any size and location to other businesses even more likely and more crucial. Companies that may not have
felt the impact of globalization and these accounting concerns in the past are likely to be feeling them now. This course will approach international accounting
concepts and dilemmas critically, examining the differences and impact of conducting business globally.
The purpose of the final project in this course is to foster this critical thinking in regard to key concepts in international accounting. The project will explore the
impact of diversity in accounting practices, the differences and impact of generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and International Financial Reporting
Standards (IFRS), and how international rules and regulations influence business practices.
In this assignment, you will demonstrate your mastery of the following course outcomes:
Evaluate diversity in accounting practices for their impact on the effectiveness of financial accounting and reporting in a global economy
Differentiate between generally accepted accounting principles and International Financial Reporting Standards as they apply to the transparency and
effectiveness of financial statements
Assess the implications of the United States converging with International Financial Reporting Standards by critically evaluating the impact it will have on
financial reporting in a global economy
Analyze the process of international financial statement analysis for its impact on the decision-making process in a multinational organization
Interpret how foreign currency rates impact financial statement creation in accordance with applicable rules and regulations
Examine the implications of variances in international tax laws on organizational strategy under generally accepted accounting principles and
International Financial Reporting Standards reporting requirements

Group 2 US Trade Policy
Summary
For our group project we have decided to research, analyze, and formulate an argument on the World Trade Organization (WTO) in regards to the US Trade Policy. In our paper we have discussed what WTO stands for and the goal of this organization. We have also addressed the latest form of trade negotiations among the WTO membership – Doha Development Round and the controversial topics of protectionism and free trade. Among the research we have performed, we as a group have come to a conclusion that we support this organization. Although there are incomplete developments that still need to be addressed, we continue to support this organization because of the fact that numerous nations come together in order to reform these conflicts.
Questions:
1. What makes free trade a better option than protectionism for the economic situation in the US?
2. What consequences would the WTO face if they acted unethically given their power?
Group 3 US Fiscal Policy
Fiscal Policy refers to the practice of monitoring spending levels and tax rates to try and influence our economy. Before the Great Depression, which started in the late twenties, our government had a hands off approach to the economy or a laissez-faire approach. After the Second World War it was deemed necessary for the government to become involved in our economy. (Heakal, Reem) They decided this would be necessary in order to attempt to influence unemployment, the business cycle and inflation. Of course there are many different ideas on the best approach and way to accomplish this.
The government takes initiative in trying to regulate unemployment, unemployment benefits, and taxation. They do this through the use of what is known as automatic stabilizers, which are programs and policies meant to balance fluctuations in the economy. During a recession, automatic stabilizers are expanded, and during an economic boom, the automatic stabilizers are reduced. An example of this would be unemployment benefits (David Weil). When there is a recession and unemployment is high, the government spends more money on unemployment benefits, whereas when the unemployment is low, the government spends less money on unemployment benefits. According to William J. Carrington, an analyst of the Congressional budget office, some of the fiscal policies used to reduce unemployment include household assistance (reducing employees’ taxes, increased unemployment insurance expenditures, and more refundable tax), business assistance, and financial aid to the states. Carrington also shows that to reduce unemployment, unemployment benefit policies must be modified such as an extension to the duration of benefits, reemployment bonuses, and offering wage insurance. Fiscal Policy can also be used to influence new ideas like those in alternative energies.
The United States government often tries to finds ways to stimulate the economy while looking towards its future. T ...

Question 1=
"Looking Back"
Please respond to the following:
Focusing on the course content and assignments, discuss the single most surprising or interesting thing you learned during this course. Explain what made it so and why you were surprised or interested.
The most surprising and interesting thing that I learned during this course was the amount of resources available to help guide businesses in successful import and export operations. The BIS website alone provided a wealth of information and through additional research and the e-activities I feel that we were exposed to a vast wealth of knowledge.
In the context of security and regulatory compliance, summarize what you have learned during this course in 50 words or less (about six sentences).
I learned that security and regulatory compliance can be challenging and that following best practices is one of the best ways to ensure success. I learned the the CBP is an agency that is heavily involved in many aspects of our nations security. Another important take-away from this class has been the importance of documentation. Documentation on both the import and export sides require strict attention to detail and it was good to learn that something as simple as a wrong INCO term can seriously effect the outcome.

In the context of security and compliance, summarize what you have learned during this course in 50 words or less (about six sentences).
During this course I have learned so much, from security and compliance to INCO terms. However the single most surprising aspect that I have learned about was the concept of reimbursement importers can receive from re-exporting items that they have originally paid duties on. Of course this is a long and lengthy process, and certain criteria must be adhered to.
From a security and compliance standpoint I have learned so much. First there are many agencies involved with the compliance and security aspects, but the CBP in my opinion leads the way in this objective. This agency leverages fines and penalties for noncompliance as well as inspects cargo for deficiencies. Additionally this agency helps companies become compliant by offering sources of information on their website and assistance by phone if needed. There are programs that companies can join to show compliance one such program is the C-TPAT program. This platform allows organizations to enjoy benefits such as being exempt from stratified exams, accelerated trade processing, access to trades specialists, business resumption, as well as entry to the CBP annual trade conference. Additionally companies can conduct self-audits to ensure compliance as well as view lists of potential customers on these banned exporting lists. Finally comp.

you believe that accounting is critical to our economic system? Why is it an integral part of our
economic system Explain. Support your answers with at least one practical example. Why did
you choose accounting as your major? If it is not your major, explain your reason for your
selection of your major What is a CPA? What service can a CPA provide that a non CPA
accountant cannot regardless of how many other qualifications he/she has including a doctorate
in accounting? What are some of the specializations in the accounting field? Discuss one or more
of them. Which one are you considering if you are an Accounting major? Post a job description
detailing the responsibilities and requirements on any accounting position that requires a
minimum of a Bachelor\'s degree. Was there anything about that job description that surprised
you (pleasant or unpleasant) Your responses must be numbered according to each question

to my thread in this forum with the same subject line as above followed by your last name. Use
any acceptable form of citation. There is an automatic 5 point deduction for submissions with no

Solution
Do you believe that accounting is critical to our economic system? Why is it an integral part of
our economic system Explain. Support your answers with at least one practical example.
Yes, I believe accounting is very critical to our economic system. Accounting plays an essential
role in economic development. High-quality corporate reporting is key to improving
transparency, facilitating the mobilization of domestic and international investment, creating a
sound investment environment and fostering investor confidence, thus promoting financial
stability. A strong and internationally comparable reporting system facilitates international flows
of financial resources while at the same time helping to reduce corruption and mismanagement
of resources. It also strengthens international competitiveness of enterprises in attracting external
financing and taking advantage of international market opportunities.
Good quality financial infrastructure is essential to the development of emerging economies as it
provides investors with an acceptably high level of assurance. Unless resources invested in
putting the plumbing in place can be accounted for, what will stop the roads going nowhere, the
energy disappearing, and the communications breaking down?
It could be very interesting and maybe surprising if we clearly understand that how accountants
can help to improve and growth economies in all over the world. Traditionally, researches have
said that accountants were hands of liberalism and.

“The 1960s: A Decade of Promise and Heartbreak”
By Kenneth T. Walsh
March 9, 2010
US News
It was a decade of extremes, of
transformational
change and
bizarre
contrasts: flower children and
assassins
,
idealism
and
alienation
, rebellion and
backlash
. For many in the
massive
post-World War II baby boom generation, it was both the best of times and the worst of times. (7 words)
There will be many 50-year anniversaries to mark significant events of the 1960s, and a big reason is that what happened in that remarkable era still
resonates
today. At the dawn of that decade of contrasts a half century ago—on Jan. 2 ,1960—a
charismatic
young senator from Massachusetts named John F. Kennedy announced that he was running for president, and he won the nation's highest office the following November. He remains one of the
iconic
figures in U.S. history. On February 1, four determined black men sat at a whites-only lunch counter at a Woolworth's in Greensboro, N.C., and were denied service. Their act of
defiance
triggered a wave of sit-ins for civil rights across the South and brought
unrelenting
national attention to America's original sin of racism. On March 3, Elvis Presley returned to the United States from his Army stint in Germany, resuming his career as a pioneer of rock-and-roll and an icon of the youth culture celebrating freedom and a growing sense of rebellion.(5 words)
By the end of the decade, Kennedy had been
assassinated
, along with his brother Robert and the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. America's cities had become powder kegs as African-Americans, despite historic gains toward legal equality, became more impatient than ever at being second-class citizens. Women began demanding their rights in
unprecedented
numbers. Young people and their parents felt a widening generation gap as seen in their differing perceptions of
patriotism
, drug use, sexuality, and the work ethic. The now familiar culture wars between liberals and conservatives caused angry divisions over law and order, busing, racial preferences, abortion, the Vie.

-What kind or type of culture shock they experienced when they first came to Kuwait?
And whether they tolerated? how do they feel where they tolerated by Kuwaitis ?

Based on what you learn those people, you will learn about feelings and their problems and difficulties when they first arrived in foreign countries. And knowing this, now you have to take this knowledge and apply to marketing and answer the questions whether it's difficult to adopt to foreign culture if it's difficult for people it's probably will be very difficult to also introduce those products and adopt those products to foreign culture.

economic system Explain. Support your answers with at least one practical example. Why did
you choose accounting as your major? If it is not your major, explain your reason for your
selection of your major What is a CPA? What service can a CPA provide that a non CPA
accountant cannot regardless of how many other qualifications he/she has including a doctorate
in accounting? What are some of the specializations in the accounting field? Discuss one or more
of them. Which one are you considering if you are an Accounting major? Post a job description
detailing the responsibilities and requirements on any accounting position that requires a
minimum of a Bachelor\'s degree. Was there anything about that job description that surprised
you (pleasant or unpleasant) Your responses must be numbered according to each question

Solution
Do you believe that accounting is critical to our economic system? Why is it an integral part of
our economic system Explain. Support your answers with at least one practical example.
Yes, I believe accounting is very critical to our economic system. Accounting plays an essential
role in economic development. High-quality corporate reporting is key to improving
transparency, facilitating the mobilization of domestic and international investment, creating a
sound investment environment and fostering investor confidence, thus promoting financial
stability. A strong and internationally comparable reporting system facilitates international flows
of financial resources while at the same time helping to reduce corruption and mismanagement
of resources. It also strengthens international competitiveness of enterprises in attracting external
financing and taking advantage of international market opportunities.
Good quality financial infrastructure is essential to the development of emerging economies as it
provides investors with an acceptably high level of assurance. Unless resources invested in
putting the plumbing in place can be accounted for, what will stop the roads going nowhere, the
energy disappearing, and the communications breaking down?
It could be very interesting and maybe surprising if we clearly understand that how accountants
can help to improve and growth economies in all over the world. Traditionally, researches have
said that accountants were hands of liberalism and.

New ways of thinking/information sharing
Seven key solution areas were identified:
·
In- store logistics: includes in-store visibility, shelf-ready products, shopper interaction
·
Collaborative physical logistics: shared transport, shared warehouse, shared infrastructure
·
Reverse logistics: product recycling, packaging recycling, returnable assets
·
Demand fluctuation management: joint planning, execution and monitoring
·
Identification and labelling: through the use of barcodes and RFID tags. Identification is about providing all partners in the value chain with the ability to use the same standardised mechanism to uniquely identify parties/locations, items and events with clear rules about where, how, when and by whom these will be created, used and maintained. Labels currently are the most widely used means to communicate about relevant sustainability and security aspects of a certain product towards consumers
·
Efficient assets: alternative forms of energy, efficient/aerodynamic vehicles, switching modes, green buildings
·
Joint scorecard and business plan: this solution consists of a suite of industry-relevant measurement tools falling into two broad categories: qualitative tools, which are a set of capability metrics designed to measure the extent to which the trading partners (supplier, service provider and retailer) are working collaboratively; and quantitative tools, which include business metrics aimed at measuring the impact of collaboration

Introducing/developing sustainable KPI
s
to SC, SCOR,GSCF Models
Wal-Mart
may be a good example to look at: when you burn less, you pay less and emit less, and the benefits can ripple further. The big advantages for organisations in becoming sustainable are reducing costs and helping the environment. For example: Wal-Mart sells 25% of detergent sold in the United States, by replacing regular washing detergent with concentrate they will save: 400 million gallons of water, 125 million pounds of cardboard and packaging, 95 million pounds of plastic.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

Decision-Making in a Global Economy
In a recent State of the Union Address, the President of the
United States announced the formation of the "National Export
Initiative," an important endeavor that is necessary for long-
term, sustainable economic growth for the country. The
president's goal is to double exports within 5 years, which, it is
hoped, should reduce unemployment by adding 2 million jobs.
This is the first time in history that the United States has put a
real focus on government-wide export promotion.
Since then, the president has signed an Executive Order that
formed the "Export Promotion Cabinet" within the presidential
administration. The Department of Commerce is an important
5. player in this initiative and is charged with making sure that
U.S. businesses can actively participate in international markets
by increasing their exports of goods, services, and agricultural
products.

6. policies?
Part II
500+words
Part of a business strategy you are considering involves the
reduction of labor and material costs. Your CFO suggested
doing some of the manufacturing overseas. The concern in
moving some of your manufacturing offshore may be that you
achieve lower costs of production but lose quality control (a
trademark of your brand) and perhaps even reduce morale in
your company by laying-off those workers whose jobs were
being performed overseas. These are serious issues. You asked
your CFO to outline the benefits and disadvantages of doing so
in regards to your relationship with your employees, balance
sheet, quality, and service.
Explain 3 additional benefits and 3 additional disadvantages
that would concern you and the economy and answer the
following questions:
· What would you conclude?
· Is there something else you can do with those employees that
you would be laying off?
Part III
500+words
In your quest to understand how your employees would be
affected by any of the decisions you are going to make, you also
realize that your labor costs may not be the real source of your
balance sheet problems. After all, you are manufacturing in a
region that attracts many immigrants, which, because of an
increase in the labor pool, actually keeps your labor costs
relatively low. This sparked the question about why Americans
continue to be concerned about immigration policy and what the
debate is about. You want to know more.
Explain the following:
· What effect does immigration have on wages?
· Does immigration help or hurt a country’s output?
7. · What are the advantages of immigration?
· What are the disadvantages of immigration?
· What are some of the current political and economic issues
regarding immigration?
· What is the debate surrounding the Dream Act about?
