Watts and Zimmerman’s ‘The Demand and Supply of
Accounting Theories: The Market for Excuses’ suggested the
‘normative’ project of accounting academics and other social
critics of corporate accounting practice to be invalid; that there
are no objective grounds in accounting theory for judging
accounting practice as ‘good’ or ‘bad’; all such judgements are
mere excuses or apologies for advancing the interests of
particular social constituencies, couched in a language of
academic impartiality and objectivity.
Tony Tinker [Policing Accounting Knowledge: the market for
excuses affair] has suggested that the positive accounting theory
proposed by Watts and Zimmerman is being replaced by a new
paradigm: one that emphasises usefulness, vocational training
and practical application.
Contrast ‘normative’ theories with ‘positive accounting’ theory.
Have we moved to a new paradigm and if so what is it.

BUACC 2606 Financial AccountingSummer 2012/13ASSIGNMENT
This assignment can either be completed in groups of two and constitutes 20 per cent of the marks in this unit. Both parts are to be completed.
Assessment Criteria:
Student work will generally be assessed in terms of the following criteria:
The assessment criteria for this assignment will be the appropriateness or accuracy of submitted answers, and the demonstration of understanding of the accounting concepts germane to the assignment topic.
Note:
1. All written work must conform with the University of Ballarat General Guide for the Presentation of Academic Work.
2. Effectiveness of communication - ie readability, legibility, grammar, spelling, neatness, completeness and presentation will be a minimum threshold requirement for all written work submitted for assessment. Work that is illegible or incomprehensible and does not meet the minimum requirement will be awarded a fail grade.
3. Demonstrated understanding - This will be evidenced by the student's ability to be dialectical in the discussion of contentious issues. Few, if any, accounting concepts are scientific facts and stereotype answers will demonstrate poor understanding on the part of the student.
4. Evidence of research - This will be evidenced by the references made to the statutes, accounting standards, books, journal articles and inclusion of a bibliography.
5. For all written work students must ensure that they submit their own original work. Any act of plagiarism will be severely penalised.

Part I Genetics – From Genes to Proteins, Mutations Background .docx
Part I: Genetics – From Genes to Proteins, Mutations
Background:
DNA represents the architectural blueprint for all living systems, encoding specific instructions in the sequence of its four nitrogen-containing base pairs that are necessary for building the organism.
During the process of transcription, the information in the DNA codons of a gene is transcribed into RNA.
A change in the DNA sequence, for example as a result of a "mistake" during DNA replication, is defined as a mutation. Mutations may result in a change in the "blueprint," which may then change the resulting protein product.
Assignment details for part one:
Transcribe and translate EACH of the
three
following DNA gene sequences.
Turn these in using the graphic organizer. The letters represent the DNA N-base sequences of the genes.
The first is the original gene. The next two are mutations of the original. Note that the changes (mutations) are shown in red.
Original Gene sequence 3'-T A C C C T T T A G T A G C C A C T-5
Mutated gene sequence 1 3’-T A C
G
C T T T A G T A G C C A
T
T-5'
Mutated gene sequence 2 3’-T A
A
C C T T T A
C
T A G
G
C A C T-5’
Also, answer the following questions:
What is the significance of the first and last codons of an mRNA transcript?
What meaning do these mRNA codons have for protein synthesis?
Did the mutations result in a change in the final proteins? If so, describe the change.
In general, why might a change in amino acid sequence affect protein function?
Part II: Inheritance of Traits or Genetic Disorders
Background
: Cystic fibrosis is an inherited disease that affects the respiratory, digestive, or reproductive systems of the body, with symptoms ranging from mild to severe. Bob and Sally are recently married. Upon deciding to plan a family, both Sally and Bob find out that they are both
heterozygous
for
cystic fibrosis
, but neither of them has symptoms of the disorder.
Assignment details:
Complete a
Punnett Square for cystic fibrosis
for this couple using the following alleles:
C = normal allele
; and
c = allele for cystic fibrosis
.
Complete the Punnett Square in the graphic organizer.
Also answer the following questions:
Based on the Punnett square, calculate chances (percentages) for the following:
for having a healthy child (not a carrier)
a child that is a carrier for the cystic fibrosis trait
a child with cystic fibrosis
Be sure to submit these percentages as part of your assignment in the Graphic Organizer.
Part III: Cell division, sexual reproduction and genetic variability
Background
: Eukaryotic cells can divide by mitosis or meiosis. In humans, mitosis produces new cells for growth and repair; meiosis produces sex cells (gametes) called
sperm
and
eggs.
Although mutations are the ultimate source of genetic variability, both meiosis and sexual reproduction also can contribute to new genetic combinations in offspring.
Assignment Essay Question:
How do both meiosis and sexual reproduction (fertilizat.
Part I How does Trifles help us think about different perspec.docx
Part I:
How does
Trifles
help us think about different perspectives or perceptions? Think about what the male/female characters in the play understand and perceive about the world around them--and consider what the men's and women's conversations and actions reveal about their attitudes toward the opposite sex
.
Part II
: Reading Modern literature can sometimes be a frustrating quest for coherence and meaning. Modernist authors
tend to omit explanations, interpretations, connections, and summaries that we are accustomed to in traditional literature.
O'Neill's method in
The Hairy Ape
demonstrates a striking departure from traditional stage drama since audiences are faced with an exaggerated and stark realism, and with dialog that is crude, natural, and slangy. How do you react to the play? What happens to Yank that leads him to expose his primitive interior self? What happens at the end, and how are we--the reading or viewing audience--to interpret his death?
Please post no fewer than 300 words, making sure to balance your answers to Parts I and II. You should use quotations from the text to support your points, but make sure they don't dominate your posts.

Part I Although it can be easy to miss, Nick is suffering from wh.docx
Part I:
Although it can be easy to miss, Nick is suffering from what we now know as Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). The way Nick believes he can heal his body and mind is to fish and camp in nature. How is this survival mode helpful? How is nature helpful? What are some of the metaphors Hemingway uses to describe Nick's mental and physical condition? What might the swamp represent?
Part II:
In Hughes' poem "The Negro Speaks of Rivers," he recounts a history of African life in the Americas. How does Hughes create a sense of ancestral and cultural history (past) in "The Negro Speaks of Rivers"?
Part III:
In Fitzgerald's "Babylon Revisited," how do you respond to Marion Peters? Is she genuinely concerned for Honoria and rightly suspicious of Charlie? Is she self-righteous? Does she remind you of anyone you have encountered?
Please post no fewer than 300 words, making sure to balance your answers to Parts I and II.

Using the data in the file named Ch. 11 Data Set 2, test the research hypothesis at the .05 level of significance that boys raise their hands in class more often than girls. Do this practice problem by hand using a calculator. What is your conclusion regarding the research hypothesis? Remember to first decide whether this is a one- or two-tailed test.
Using the same data set (Ch. 11 Data Set 2), test the research hypothesis at the .01 level of significance that there is a difference between boys and girls in the number of times they raise their hands in class. Do this practice problem by hand using a calculator. What is your conclusion regarding the research hypothesis? You used the same data for this problem as for Question 1, but you have a different hypothesis (one is directional and the other is nondirectional). How do the results differ and why?
Practice the following problems by hand just to see if you can get the numbers right. Using the following information, calculate the
t
test statistic.
Using the results you got from Question 3 and a level of significance at .05, what are the two-tailed critical values associated with each? Would the null hypothesis be rejected?
Using the data in the file named Ch. 11 Data Set 3, test the null hypothesis that urban and rural residents both have the same attitude toward gun control. Use IBM

A public health researcher tested the hypothesis that providing new car buyers with child safety seats will also act as an incentive for parents to take other measures to protect their children (such as driving more safely, child-proofing the home, and so on). Dr. L counted all the occurrences of safe behaviors in the cars and homes of the parents who accepted the seats versus those who did not. The findings: a significant difference at the .013 level. Another researcher did exactly the same study; everything was the same—same type of sample, same outcome measures, same car seats, and so on. Dr. R’s results were marginally significant (recall Ch. 9) at the .051 level. Which result do you trust more and why?
In the following examples, indicate whether you would perform a

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...
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.

Part I Genetics – From Genes to Proteins, Mutations Background .docx
Part I: Genetics – From Genes to Proteins, Mutations
Background:
DNA represents the architectural blueprint for all living systems, encoding specific instructions in the sequence of its four nitrogen-containing base pairs that are necessary for building the organism.
During the process of transcription, the information in the DNA codons of a gene is transcribed into RNA.
A change in the DNA sequence, for example as a result of a "mistake" during DNA replication, is defined as a mutation. Mutations may result in a change in the "blueprint," which may then change the resulting protein product.
Assignment details for part one:
Transcribe and translate EACH of the
three
following DNA gene sequences.
Turn these in using the graphic organizer. The letters represent the DNA N-base sequences of the genes.
The first is the original gene. The next two are mutations of the original. Note that the changes (mutations) are shown in red.
Original Gene sequence 3'-T A C C C T T T A G T A G C C A C T-5
Mutated gene sequence 1 3’-T A C

T-5'
Mutated gene sequence 2 3’-T A

C A C T-5’
Also, answer the following questions:
What is the significance of the first and last codons of an mRNA transcript?
What meaning do these mRNA codons have for protein synthesis?
Did the mutations result in a change in the final proteins? If so, describe the change.
In general, why might a change in amino acid sequence affect protein function?
Part II: Inheritance of Traits or Genetic Disorders
Background

heterozygous
for
cystic fibrosis
, but neither of them has symptoms of the disorder.
Assignment details:
Complete a
Punnett Square for cystic fibrosis
for this couple using the following alleles:
C = normal allele
; and
c = allele for cystic fibrosis
.
Complete the Punnett Square in the graphic organizer.
Also answer the following questions:
Based on the Punnett square, calculate chances (percentages) for the following:
for having a healthy child (not a carrier)
a child that is a carrier for the cystic fibrosis trait
a child with cystic fibrosis
Be sure to submit these percentages as part of your assignment in the Graphic Organizer.
Part III: Cell division, sexual reproduction and genetic variability
Background
: Eukaryotic cells can divide by mitosis or meiosis. In humans, mitosis produces new cells for growth and repair; meiosis produces sex cells (gametes) called
sperm
and
eggs.
Although mutations are the ultimate source of genetic variability, both meiosis and sexual reproduction also can contribute to new genetic combinations in offspring.

How do you react to the play? What happens to Yank that leads him to expose his primitive interior self? What happens at the end, and how are we--the reading or viewing audience--to interpret his death?

Name one surprising fact you discovered about any of this week's authors. Why did it surprise you?
Part II:
Most of the works this week were somewhat specific in terms of location.
How might the perspective have changed if the events were placed in a another location
? For instance, lynchings took place in the North, as well as the South. What is the significance of placing "Song for a Dark Girl" in the South? How would the impact have changed without that information? That is only one example.
Part III:
Although the focus of the week was race and ethnicity, Morrison, Hurston, and Walker present strong female characters.
What characteristics do these stories imply are desirable

Using the data in the file named Ch. 11 Data Set 2, test the research hypothesis at the .05 level of significance that boys raise their hands in class more often than girls. Do this practice problem by hand using a calculator. What is your conclusion regarding the research hypothesis? Remember to first decide whether this is a one- or two-tailed test.
Using the same data set (Ch. 11 Data Set 2), test the research hypothesis at the .01 level of significance that there is a difference between boys and girls in the number of times they raise their hands in class. Do this practice problem by hand using a calculator. What is your conclusion regarding the research hypothesis? You used the same data for this problem as for Question 1, but you have a different hypothesis (one is directional and the other is nondirectional). How do the results differ and why?
Practice the following problems by hand just to see if you can get the numbers right. Using the following information, calculate the
t
test statistic.
Using the results you got from Question 3 and a level of significance at .05, what are the two-tailed critical values associated with each? Would the null hypothesis be rejected?
Using the data in the file named Ch. 11 Data Set 3, test the null hypothesis that urban and rural residents both have the same attitude toward gun control. Use IBM

A public health researcher tested the hypothesis that providing new car buyers with child safety seats will also act as an incentive for parents to take other measures to protect their children (such as driving more safely, child-proofing the home, and so on). Dr. L counted all the occurrences of safe behaviors in the cars and homes of the parents who accepted the seats versus those who did not. The findings: a significant difference at the .013 level. Another researcher did exactly the same study; everything was the same—same type of sample, same outcome measures, same car seats, and so on. Dr. R’s results were marginally significant (recall Ch. 9) at the .051 level. Which result do you trust more and why?
In the following examples, indicate whether you would perform a

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...
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.

The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

Part A (1000 words) Watts and Zimmerman’s ‘The Demand an.docx
- 1. Part A (1000 words) Watts and Zimmerman’s ‘The Demand and Supply of Accounting Theories: The Market for Excuses’ suggested the ‘normative’ project of accounting academics and other social critics of corporate accounting practice to be invalid; that there are no objective grounds in accounting theory for judging accounting practice as ‘good’ or ‘bad’; all such judgements are mere excuses or apologies for advancing the interests of particular social constituencies, couched in a language of academic impartiality and objectivity. Tony Tinker [Policing Accounting Knowledge: the market for excuses affair] has suggested that the positive accounting theory proposed by Watts and Zimmerman is being replaced by a new paradigm: one that emphasises usefulness, vocational training and practical application. Contrast ‘normative’ theories with ‘positive accounting’ theory. Have we moved to a new paradigm and if so what is it. Part B (1000)
