Question 1 - What two different types of ocean cargo services are there? Question 2 - Explain the concept of a flag. Why does a ship need a flag? Why would an owner choose to fly a flag of convenience? Question 3 - What are the major initiatives of the world governments in terms of cargo security? Question 4 - Briefly describe the different types of air cargo services available. Question 5 - Do you think that the demand for air cargo will increase or decrease over the next three years? Why? Solution 1) Full container load (FCL), and Less-than-container load (LCL) are the two basic types of Ocean Cargo. Less-Than-Container Load This type of shipping moves your shipment in an ocean container with other shipments. The Docker workers can easily handle the cargo. Customs clearance and delivery has to done. Full Container Load 2) The concept of flag is that if a vessel has to make an international travel, it must choose a nation under the flag of which that vessel will sail. When a merchant ship is registered in a sovereign state different from that of the ship’s owners and fly that state’s civil ensign on the ship. This business practice is called Flag of convenience. Normally the ships are registered under the flags of convenience in order to take the advantage of reduced regulation, lower administrative fees etc. Also it helps them to reduce operating costs. 3) The main initiatives relevant to maritime container security are:- Customs Trade Partnership Against Terrorism (C-TPAT):- It is aim to strengthen over all supply chain and border security. It is a joint government – business initiative. It is intended to enhance the joint efforts of both entities in developing a more secure border environment, by improving and expanding the existing security practices. The Container Security Initiative (CSI):- It was developed shortly after September 11, 2001, 14. It is basically to enhanced the security of the world’s maritime trading system. It also states that high - risk cargo containers should be targeted and screened before they are loaded. The initiative aims at facilitating detection of potential problems at their earliest possible opportunity and is designed to prevent the smuggling of terrorists or terrorist weapons in ocean going cargo containers. 4) The different types of air cargo services available may vary in relation to the weight, size and the type of package or cargo. The most common type of air cargo services is that of the house hold goods and the organizational categories. House hold good such as furniture, appliances etc are moved between different places here. The overnight delivery system or the express shipping, here small items, letters, parcel and small packages are some of the things that delivered in this type of service. 5) The demand for air cargo will increase over the next three years because of globalization. Also the multinational companies presence are increasing which would increase the demand for air cargo as time has.

Introduction
Introduction
The business and logistics for supporting air cargo is a highly complex system of global infrastructure that is subject to risk from crime and terrorism.
Air cargo includes freight and express packages that range in size from small to very large, and in type from car engines, electronic equipment, machine parts, apparel, medical supplies, human remains, to fresh-cut flowers, fresh seafood, fresh produce, tropical fish, and other perishable goods.

Introduction
10.5 million tons of cargo shipped every year
22% of U.S. passenger aircraft hold is cargo
Majority of air cargo transported by all-cargo operators
Remaining 2 million+ tons carried by passenger aircraft
Most shipping customers assume that express or overnight delivery always utilizes cargo air service. However, only a small percent of packages travel by air and an even smaller amount is placed on a passenger-carrying plane as cargo.
These small percentages still represent over 10.5 million tons of cargo shipped by air every year within the United States. Of that capacity, over 8 million tons is shipped cargo on international flights to and from the U.S., along with over half a million tons of mail.
The U.S. Government Accountability Office (GAO) estimated that at least 22% of a U.S. passenger airliner's hold is on average, cargo, with the remaining cargo transported by "all-cargo" aircraft.
Passenger planes often specialize in carrying "just-in-time" cargo, which consists of perishable items such as seafood and flowers or high-value fragile items like computers, jewelry, and artwork (etc.).
The individual size and weight of items carried as air cargo are usually smaller and lighter as compared to cargo carried by rail, vessel, or truck.

Introduction to the company and its history
Strategic Logistics Management Inc (SLM) is a logistics company based in the United States of America (USA). Many factories in New York City and Los Angeles are managed and coordinated by the group. Brook Brothers Company, which sells garments and is based in New York, has come into a partnership agreement with SLM. The contract's scope of work covers warehousing and distribution facilities for clothing packaged in various sizes of cardboard boxes. Pallets about 40 inches by 48 inches are used to compile the cardboard boxes. SLM has been tasked with planning logistics for Brook Brothers shipments from New York to Sydney, Australia, under a newly signed deal. The garments will be transported to and from Australia by SLM Inc. It has also set a monthly goal for freight units equal to 200 20-foot (TEU) of imports and exports. This paper will now concentrate on a logistics strategy that SLM will use to improve its ability to compete in Australian market segments.
The Products' Physical Characteristics
The cardboard boxes are stacked and boxed; a single box measures 48 inches (4 feet) by 40 inches (3.3 feet). The pallet's longer hand measures 4 feet, which is equivalent to 0.2 TEU when divided by 20. The gross weight planned for shipment is two hundred feet, which is equivalent to twenty TEU. It is made up of wooden boxes that will be shipped in a single crate that measures 4 feet by 3.3 feet wide by 3.5 feet tall. The container's gross volume would be 46 square feet. The load's volume per delivery is less than 1 TEU, so it's considered a small consignment. Small deliveries are compact and can be easily transported without the use of heavy transportation. Big consignments, on the other hand, will exceed 1TEU and, depending on their scale, will necessitate comparatively heavy transport.
Transportation mode
For any logistics firm, choosing the mode of transportation is important because it helps to ensure sustainability, cut costs, and ensure the productivity of the job. In other words, choosing the right mode of transportation would save money and satisfy the needs of consumers at any stage of the transaction. If a business prefers a bad mode of transportation, such as driving to transport goods abroad, it will incur additional costs that can be avoided if a better mode of transportation is used. To prevent compromising the transportation method, it is important to use a mode of transportation that can accommodate heavy goods while transporting a more decadent item. If two modes of transportation are capable of performing the function, it is critical to choose the one that will produce the least amount of waste and fulfill the importer's demands in the shortest amount of time.

Domestic Ferry Safety in the Developing World
This document discusses domestic ferry safety, particularly in the developing world. It notes that while international ferry safety has improved, domestic ferry safety in parts of the developing world remains poor, with frequent accidents resulting in large loss of life. Reasons for this include lack of regulations, weak regulatory enforcement, unsafe vessels, overloading of passengers and cargo, and poor rescue responses during accidents. The document calls for greater efforts to improve domestic ferry safety standards and enforcement in the developing world in order to reduce accidents and save lives.
Commercial shipping
It is designed to give an overall understanding of the elements of Passenger Shipping to include information on the evolution/history of passenger shipping, the logistics of passenger shipping, the intermodal linkages of passenger shipping as well as the marketing of passenger shipping.
Difference between intermodal shipping and multimodal shipping
Multimodal: Multimodal transport (also known as combined transport) is the transportation of goods under a single contract, but performed with at least two different means of transport; the carrier is liable (in a legal sense) for the entire carriage, even though it is performed by several different modes of transport (by rail, sea and road, for example). The carrier does not have to possess all the means of transport, and in practice usually does not; the carriage is often performed by sub-carriers (referred to in legal language as “actual carriers”). The carrier responsible for the entire carriage is referred to as a multimodal transport operator, or MTO.
Intermodal: Intermodal freight transport involves the transportation of freight in an intermodal container or vehicle, using multiple modes of transportation (rail, ship, and truck), without any handling of the freight itself when changing modes. The method reduces cargo handling, and so improves security, reduces damage and loss, and allows freight to be transported faster. Reduced costs over road trucking is the key benefit for inter-continental use. This may be offset by reduced timings for road transport over shorter distances.

Port security planning is an essential component of daily port operations. This is important because without it, an attack would instantly shut down day to day activities. There are several important components that make up a complete port security plan. First, it must address the organization of security administration. Second, it has to identify and cover strategic goals. It must also address many other areas, such as personnel training. This is crucial because without properly trained people, with a clear organizational structure, the port simply cannot be properly secured. Ultimately, like all other areas of domestic security, our ports need to have cohesive plans for protection, just like the other areas of critical infrastructure. An attack on this sector would cause massive damage to both the shipping ability of the United States, and the economy. Our economy depends on the rapid processing of inbound and outbound shipping traffic.
Discuss the significance and purpose of the Secure Freight Initiative?
The Secure Freight Initiative is a program to install and operate nuclear detection equipment in foreign ports. “As part of the Department’s layered approach to port and container security, the initial phase of Secure Freight Initiative will deploy of a combination of existing technology and proven nuclear detection devices to six foreign port beginning in early 2007” (DHS, 2015). This initiative greatly enhances the security of the United States. It provides nearly real time information to US Customs and Border Protection officers and allows them to identify suspect freight before it reaches the United States mainland. In essence, this initiative allows for threats to be addressed before the suspect containers are even loaded onboard a ship for delivery to the United States. “All alarms from the radiation detection equipment for any container will continue to be resolved locally. For containers bound for the United States, we are working with host governments to establish protocols that ensure a swift resolution by the host government and may include instructing carriers not to load the container until the risk is fully resolved” (DHS, 2013) The Secure Freight Initiative provides a critical component of the United States protection strategies.

The planning of security at the nation’s ports is a very daunting task involving many key people and areas of management. As mentioned in this week’s lesson, when planning for the security of the ports it is very important to implement a thorough plan from day one until the completion of the build because it is much easier and less expensive to plan from the beginning rather than to go back an ...
international logistics 3rd edition chapter 14
This chapter discusses packaging for export shipments. It explains that packaging has three key functions: to protect goods during transport, allow for handling without damage, and be part of the customer service strategy. The chapter covers packaging terminology and objectives. It also provides guidance on packaging for different modes of transport, including ocean cargo that can be full container load, less than container load, or break bulk, and discusses best practices for packaging in each scenario.
Port Security_Anderson_Richard
Following the 9/11 attacks, the US government implemented new legislation and programs to enhance security of the US maritime system. This included the Container Security Initiative, which aimed to screen high-risk cargo containers before arrival at US ports. New regulations like ISPS and MTSA required facilities, ships, and companies to follow security guidelines and appoint security officers. The Coast Guard also issued rules on vessel and facility security plans. However, complying with these new mandates was very costly for ports and facilities, who felt more funding was needed to implement all the required physical and personnel security upgrades.
Transportation and Trade Part 5 (1) (1).pptx
Land, air, and ocean transportation all play pivotal roles in connecting the global supply chain and facilitating international trade. Ocean freight is the backbone of global trade, transporting goods across vast maritime networks. Key shipping terms include voyage, gross and net weight, demurrage, and transshipment. The largest port is the Port of Shanghai, handling over 47 million containers annually and connecting China to international trade routes. It faces challenges from competition and environmental pressures. Inland container depots, ports, and container freight stations differ in their locations and logistical functions.
Terrorism And Container Trade
The document discusses how shipping containers, while very efficient for transporting goods globally, also present security risks if exploited by terrorist organizations. Containers allow anonymity during transport, with no inspections between loading and unloading points. This could allow terrorists to secretly transport weapons or materials for weapons of mass destruction internationally. The document outlines scenarios where terrorists could substitute legitimate cargo in a container for weapons, or use front companies to ship weapons legally. It argues container security must be strengthened, especially regarding chemical, biological, radiological or nuclear materials, to prevent future terrorist attacks using the global shipping network.

The shipping industry’s ability to offer economical and efficient long-distance transport has placed the sector at the center of the world economy. Billion tons of goods and materials are ferried via ship each year from one destination to another for its consumption.
Although shipping is regarded as a convenient mode of transportation, exporters must grasp the numerous procedures and formalities associated with it for smooth day-to-day operations. To understand it all and simplify the hurdles in the shipping process, Drip Capital, in association with Mr. Hemant Kulkarni, organized this webinar

Freight forwarder
A freight forwarder organizes shipments for individuals or corporations to transport goods from manufacturers to markets or customers. Freight forwarders act as intermediaries between shippers and various transportation services like ocean shipping, trucking, air freight, and rail. They assist with quotes, book freight space, consolidate shipments, prepare necessary documents, handle customs procedures, and provide other services to safely and efficiently transport goods internationally. Common terms in freight forwarding include non-vessel operating common carrier (NVOCC), which can issue bills of lading, and federal maritime commission (FMC), which regulates vessel and non-vessel operators.

Truck Transportation
In many parts of the world, trucking is a vital way of shipping internationally.
In some areas of the world, it represents 100 percent of the international traffic.
In others, it is a lower percentage, but trucking is still a significant part of the international traffic volume.
Importantly, though, trucking is almost always the mode of transportation for the “first mile” and the “last mile” of a shipment’s itinerary.
Truck Transportation
The critical issues for a shipper using truck transportation are the many different national rules and regulations that govern truck transportation. These rules influence:
The weight that can be placed in the truck
The hours that the truck can operate
The size of the equipment that can be used
The number of hours a driver may work
The training that a driver must have
These differences make for very different trucking practices from country to country.
A European truck is limited to an overall length. The tractor is compact to allow for maximum trailer size.
North American trucks are limited by the size of the trailer, with no constraints on the size of the tractor.
Australian trucks have fewer limitations on the number of trailers, leading to the concept of “road-trains.”
North American trailers are carried over long distances by “piggy-back” trains.
In Switzerland, regulations do not allow international trucks to cross the country. They are transported by piggy-back trains from one border to the other.
In India, congested roads encourage truckers to use piggy-back trains on some routes.
In many developing countries, the maximum weight capacities of trucks are routinely exceeded.
Rail Transportation
Rail transportation is also an important mode of transportation for international shipments, although it is mostly a domestic mode for the United States.
Nevertheless, a significant amount of cargo moves by rail in the U.S. In 2012, more than 40 percent of all ton-miles shipped long-distance in the U.S. was shipped by rail.
Rail transport has an approximate 18 percent market share for international cargo movements in the European Union when measured in FTKs.
Rail Transportation
Rail transportation is dominated by three issues:
The ownership of the railroad, which can be private (the United States) or public (most of the remainder of the world).
The infrastructure, such as issues of gauge (width of the tracks), electrification, curves, maintenance, and so on, which dictates the types of goods shipped and the speed at which they are delivered.
The relationship between passenger traffic and merchandise traffic, and which has priority over the other. In the U.S., merchandise traffic has priority, in many other countries, it’s passenger traffic that has priority.

ANALYSIS OF EXISTING TRAILERS’ CONTAINER LOCK SYSTEMS
Trailers carry large containers to various destinations in the world. These are manually locked on to trailers as they move through these long distances. Security mainly refers to the safety of a state, organization, property, and individuals against criminal activity. The study was made to analyze the existing trailer locks and the insecurity being experienced currently. The study also focused on creating a background to building an automated lock system for auto-mobiles. Findings showed that there are various container types like the General Purpose containers, the Hard-Top containers and the Open-Top among others. Similarly, the twist locks were the ones revised for this study. The study also discussed the weaknesses of the twist locks, most especially the non-notification on unsecured locks.

Introduction to the company and its history
Strategic Logistics Management Inc (SLM) is a logistics company based in the United States of America (USA). Many factories in New York City and Los Angeles are managed and coordinated by the group. Brook Brothers Company, which sells garments and is based in New York, has come into a partnership agreement with SLM. The contract's scope of work covers warehousing and distribution facilities for clothing packaged in various sizes of cardboard boxes. Pallets about 40 inches by 48 inches are used to compile the cardboard boxes. SLM has been tasked with planning logistics for Brook Brothers shipments from New York to Sydney, Australia, under a newly signed deal. The garments will be transported to and from Australia by SLM Inc. It has also set a monthly goal for freight units equal to 200 20-foot (TEU) of imports and exports. This paper will now concentrate on a logistics strategy that SLM will use to improve its ability to compete in Australian market segments.
The Products' Physical Characteristics
The cardboard boxes are stacked and boxed; a single box measures 48 inches (4 feet) by 40 inches (3.3 feet). The pallet's longer hand measures 4 feet, which is equivalent to 0.2 TEU when divided by 20. The gross weight planned for shipment is two hundred feet, which is equivalent to twenty TEU. It is made up of wooden boxes that will be shipped in a single crate that measures 4 feet by 3.3 feet wide by 3.5 feet tall. The container's gross volume would be 46 square feet. The load's volume per delivery is less than 1 TEU, so it's considered a small consignment. Small deliveries are compact and can be easily transported without the use of heavy transportation. Big consignments, on the other hand, will exceed 1TEU and, depending on their scale, will necessitate comparatively heavy transport.
Transportation mode
For any logistics firm, choosing the mode of transportation is important because it helps to ensure sustainability, cut costs, and ensure the productivity of the job. In other words, choosing the right mode of transportation would save money and satisfy the needs of consumers at any stage of the transaction. If a business prefers a bad mode of transportation, such as driving to transport goods abroad, it will incur additional costs that can be avoided if a better mode of transportation is used. To prevent compromising the transportation method, it is important to use a mode of transportation that can accommodate heavy goods while transporting a more decadent item. If two modes of transportation are capable of performing the function, it is critical to choose the one that will produce the least amount of waste and fulfill the importer's demands in the shortest amount of time.

Domestic Ferry Safety in the Developing World
This document discusses domestic ferry safety, particularly in the developing world. It notes that while international ferry safety has improved, domestic ferry safety in parts of the developing world remains poor, with frequent accidents resulting in large loss of life. Reasons for this include lack of regulations, weak regulatory enforcement, unsafe vessels, overloading of passengers and cargo, and poor rescue responses during accidents. The document calls for greater efforts to improve domestic ferry safety standards and enforcement in the developing world in order to reduce accidents and save lives.
Commercial shipping
It is designed to give an overall understanding of the elements of Passenger Shipping to include information on the evolution/history of passenger shipping, the logistics of passenger shipping, the intermodal linkages of passenger shipping as well as the marketing of passenger shipping.
Difference between intermodal shipping and multimodal shipping
Multimodal: Multimodal transport (also known as combined transport) is the transportation of goods under a single contract, but performed with at least two different means of transport; the carrier is liable (in a legal sense) for the entire carriage, even though it is performed by several different modes of transport (by rail, sea and road, for example). The carrier does not have to possess all the means of transport, and in practice usually does not; the carriage is often performed by sub-carriers (referred to in legal language as “actual carriers”). The carrier responsible for the entire carriage is referred to as a multimodal transport operator, or MTO.
Intermodal: Intermodal freight transport involves the transportation of freight in an intermodal container or vehicle, using multiple modes of transportation (rail, ship, and truck), without any handling of the freight itself when changing modes. The method reduces cargo handling, and so improves security, reduces damage and loss, and allows freight to be transported faster. Reduced costs over road trucking is the key benefit for inter-continental use. This may be offset by reduced timings for road transport over shorter distances.

Port security planning is an essential component of daily port operations. This is important because without it, an attack would instantly shut down day to day activities. There are several important components that make up a complete port security plan. First, it must address the organization of security administration. Second, it has to identify and cover strategic goals. It must also address many other areas, such as personnel training. This is crucial because without properly trained people, with a clear organizational structure, the port simply cannot be properly secured. Ultimately, like all other areas of domestic security, our ports need to have cohesive plans for protection, just like the other areas of critical infrastructure. An attack on this sector would cause massive damage to both the shipping ability of the United States, and the economy. Our economy depends on the rapid processing of inbound and outbound shipping traffic.
Discuss the significance and purpose of the Secure Freight Initiative?
The Secure Freight Initiative is a program to install and operate nuclear detection equipment in foreign ports. “As part of the Department’s layered approach to port and container security, the initial phase of Secure Freight Initiative will deploy of a combination of existing technology and proven nuclear detection devices to six foreign port beginning in early 2007” (DHS, 2015). This initiative greatly enhances the security of the United States. It provides nearly real time information to US Customs and Border Protection officers and allows them to identify suspect freight before it reaches the United States mainland. In essence, this initiative allows for threats to be addressed before the suspect containers are even loaded onboard a ship for delivery to the United States. “All alarms from the radiation detection equipment for any container will continue to be resolved locally. For containers bound for the United States, we are working with host governments to establish protocols that ensure a swift resolution by the host government and may include instructing carriers not to load the container until the risk is fully resolved” (DHS, 2013) The Secure Freight Initiative provides a critical component of the United States protection strategies.

The planning of security at the nation’s ports is a very daunting task involving many key people and areas of management. As mentioned in this week’s lesson, when planning for the security of the ports it is very important to implement a thorough plan from day one until the completion of the build because it is much easier and less expensive to plan from the beginning rather than to go back an ...

This chapter discusses packaging for export shipments. It explains that packaging has three key functions: to protect goods during transport, allow for handling without damage, and be part of the customer service strategy. The chapter covers packaging terminology and objectives. It also provides guidance on packaging for different modes of transport, including ocean cargo that can be full container load, less than container load, or break bulk, and discusses best practices for packaging in each scenario.
Port Security_Anderson_Richard
Following the 9/11 attacks, the US government implemented new legislation and programs to enhance security of the US maritime system. This included the Container Security Initiative, which aimed to screen high-risk cargo containers before arrival at US ports. New regulations like ISPS and MTSA required facilities, ships, and companies to follow security guidelines and appoint security officers. The Coast Guard also issued rules on vessel and facility security plans. However, complying with these new mandates was very costly for ports and facilities, who felt more funding was needed to implement all the required physical and personnel security upgrades.
Transportation and Trade Part 5 (1) (1).pptx
Land, air, and ocean transportation all play pivotal roles in connecting the global supply chain and facilitating international trade. Ocean freight is the backbone of global trade, transporting goods across vast maritime networks. Key shipping terms include voyage, gross and net weight, demurrage, and transshipment. The largest port is the Port of Shanghai, handling over 47 million containers annually and connecting China to international trade routes. It faces challenges from competition and environmental pressures. Inland container depots, ports, and container freight stations differ in their locations and logistical functions.
Terrorism And Container Trade
The document discusses how shipping containers, while very efficient for transporting goods globally, also present security risks if exploited by terrorist organizations. Containers allow anonymity during transport, with no inspections between loading and unloading points. This could allow terrorists to secretly transport weapons or materials for weapons of mass destruction internationally. The document outlines scenarios where terrorists could substitute legitimate cargo in a container for weapons, or use front companies to ship weapons legally. It argues container security must be strengthened, especially regarding chemical, biological, radiological or nuclear materials, to prevent future terrorist attacks using the global shipping network.

Freight forwarder
A freight forwarder organizes shipments for individuals or corporations to transport goods from manufacturers to markets or customers. Freight forwarders act as intermediaries between shippers and various transportation services like ocean shipping, trucking, air freight, and rail. They assist with quotes, book freight space, consolidate shipments, prepare necessary documents, handle customs procedures, and provide other services to safely and efficiently transport goods internationally. Common terms in freight forwarding include non-vessel operating common carrier (NVOCC), which can issue bills of lading, and federal maritime commission (FMC), which regulates vessel and non-vessel operators.

Truck Transportation
In many parts of the world, trucking is a vital way of shipping internationally.
In some areas of the world, it represents 100 percent of the international traffic.
In others, it is a lower percentage, but trucking is still a significant part of the international traffic volume.
Importantly, though, trucking is almost always the mode of transportation for the “first mile” and the “last mile” of a shipment’s itinerary.
Truck Transportation
The critical issues for a shipper using truck transportation are the many different national rules and regulations that govern truck transportation. These rules influence:
The weight that can be placed in the truck
The hours that the truck can operate
The size of the equipment that can be used
The number of hours a driver may work
The training that a driver must have
These differences make for very different trucking practices from country to country.
A European truck is limited to an overall length. The tractor is compact to allow for maximum trailer size.
North American trucks are limited by the size of the trailer, with no constraints on the size of the tractor.
Australian trucks have fewer limitations on the number of trailers, leading to the concept of “road-trains.”
North American trailers are carried over long distances by “piggy-back” trains.
In Switzerland, regulations do not allow international trucks to cross the country. They are transported by piggy-back trains from one border to the other.
In India, congested roads encourage truckers to use piggy-back trains on some routes.
In many developing countries, the maximum weight capacities of trucks are routinely exceeded.
Rail Transportation
Rail transportation is also an important mode of transportation for international shipments, although it is mostly a domestic mode for the United States.
Nevertheless, a significant amount of cargo moves by rail in the U.S. In 2012, more than 40 percent of all ton-miles shipped long-distance in the U.S. was shipped by rail.
Rail transport has an approximate 18 percent market share for international cargo movements in the European Union when measured in FTKs.
Rail Transportation
Rail transportation is dominated by three issues:
The ownership of the railroad, which can be private (the United States) or public (most of the remainder of the world).
The infrastructure, such as issues of gauge (width of the tracks), electrification, curves, maintenance, and so on, which dictates the types of goods shipped and the speed at which they are delivered.
The relationship between passenger traffic and merchandise traffic, and which has priority over the other. In the U.S., merchandise traffic has priority, in many other countries, it’s passenger traffic that has priority.

How would a CFE devise a plan to prevent subsequent employee fraud.pdf
How would a CFE devise a plan to prevent subsequent employee fraud?
Solution
ANSWER:
Although the prevention of fraud is always less costly and more effective than fraud detection
(and subsequent investigation), however unfortunately prevention is not always possible. This
the reason, as CFE’s Certified Fraud Examiners (CFE) we must all be heavy promoters (and
supporters) of client internal audit functions
The CFE devise a plan to internal audit that includes the procedures to identify or prevent
significant incomplete, inaccurate, or unauthorized transactions; unreliable financial reporting;
deficiencies in safeguarding assets; and deviations from regulations, laws, and institutional
policies. When effectively designed and implemented, internal audits gives directors and senior
managers with timely information in regard to weaknesses in the internal control system and thus
facilitating timely remedial action and prevent subsequent employee fraud. Each institution is
required to have an internal audit function appropriate to the size and the nature and scope of the
activities.
Hilary rode her horse for 8 miles until it was hurt.Then she walked .pdf
Hilary rode her horse for 8 miles until it was hurt.Then she walked back home to call a vet. She
figures the horse wals twice as fast as she does. the whole trip took 4 hours, so how fast would
Hilary have to walk?
Solution
The equation used in this problem is SpeedXTime=Distance
We know that the entire trip takes 4 hours
Let us designate x as the time that it takes the horse to travel 8 miles
4-x= is designated as the time it takes Hilary to walk back
we also know the ratio of rate 2:1
Let us set up the equation
(Distance/Time)=speed of the horse =8/x
(Distance/Time)=speed of Hilary =8/4-x
We need to make both sides of the eqation equal. In order to do this we need to multiply (8/4-x)
by 1/2 since the horse is going 2x the speed of Hilary
8/x=(1/2)(8/4-x)
Simplify by dividing 8 by 2 so that you get 8/x=4/4-x
Cross multiply to get 8(4-x)=4x
Use the distributive property
32-8x=4x
Add 8x to both sides and get
32=12x
Divide both sides by 12
x=1.33 hours it took the horse
4-x=2.67 hours it took Hilary
2.99 or 3 miles per hour

DIVERSITY RESEARCH ASSIGNMENT
Age and Socioeconomic Status
Socioeconomic status (SES) is often measured as a combination of education, income and
occupation. It is commonly conceptualized as the social standing or class of an individual or
group. When viewed through a social class lens, privilege, power and control are emphasized.
Furthermore, an examination of SES as a gradient or continuous variable reveals inequities in
access to and distribution of resources. SES is relevant to all realms of behavioural and social
science, including research, practice, education and advocacy.
SES Affects Our Society
SES affects overall human functioning, including our physical and mental health. Its effects can
be observed across the life span. Variance in socioeconomic status such as disparities in the
distribution of wealth, income and access to resources mitigate social problems that ultimately
affect everyone. All benefit from an increased focus on the foundations of socioeconomic
inequalities and efforts to reduce the deep gaps in socioeconomic status observed today in the
United States and abroad.
While older and retired U.S. residents may enjoy a higher standard of living than their
predecessors, older Americans remain among the most economically vulnerable groups. Of
major concern is whether older Americans will outlive their financial resources. Psychologists
and other social and behavioural science professionals possess the tools necessary to study and
identify strategies to alleviate these disparities at both individual and societal levels.
SES Impacts the Lives of Older Adults
The United States is facing unprecedented increases in the older adult population. Americans age
65 and over comprise nearly 13 percent of the U.S. population, and their proportion is estimated
to increase to 20 percent of the population in the next 25 years. As the percentage of older
Americans rises, so does concern for their econom.
Detailed solutions please 1. Let R and S be commutative rings and le.pdf
Detailed solutions please: 1. Let R and S be commutative rings and let sigma: R right arrow S be
a homomorphism. Prove that if sigma is one to one and b in R is a zero divisor of R, then
sigma(b) is a zero divisor of S.
Solution
we are given that R--->S is a homomorphism
A homomorphism is a map that preserves selected structure between two algebraic structures,
with the structure to be preserved being given by the naming of the homomorphism
the set R and S are the same as they form a homomorphic relation.
now b E R that is b lies with the set R
and since R and S are homomorphic so b will also lie in the ser S
since sigma is one to one function threfore the entire domain of sigma will be mapped .
its also gven that sigma(b) is a zero divisor of R
and since b E S as well
so sigma(b) is a zero divisor of S as well
hence proved..
Describe the mechanisms of asexual reproduction inProkaryotesPr.pdf
Describe the mechanisms of asexual reproduction in:
Prokaryotes
Protists
Plants-
Animals
Solution
Prokaryotes reprodue asexually by BINARY FISSION mehanism. In this the genetic material is
replicated as same as the parent genome the cell devides in two parts and give rise to new
progeny so no geneti diversity is formed.
protists- they also reprodue asexually through binary fission, BUDDING In this new organism
grow from the body of parent.
PLANT- VEGETATIVE reproduction is the main asexual reproduction in which a plant part
give rise of new plant same as the parent, such as growing tips of RHIZOME.
ANIMALS- they also reproduce asexually through budding,fission,fragmentation.In case of stick
inset, bees PARTHENOGENESIS our in whih unfertilised egg give rise to new individual it is a
type of AGAMOGENESIS..
Define intermediate phenotype and then imagine some intermediate phe.pdf
Define intermediate phenotype and then imagine some intermediate phenotypes (e.g. RNA,
metabolite, etc) for Down’s Syndrome.
Solution
intermediate phenotype :
it depicts a living being that shows a mix of the phenotypic characteristics that its parents
expressed.
. In the event that a red blossom cross-pollinates a white bloom, and the subsequent offspring are
pink, the posterity portrayed as a intermediate phenotype .
It happen when the traits under investigation are neither dominant or recessive.
Down disorder (DS or DNS), otherwise called trisomy 21, is a hereditary issue brought about by
the nearness of all or some portion of a third duplicate of chromosome 21. It is commonly
connected with physical development delays, trademark facial elements and mellow to direct
learned incapacity.
Down disorder is brought on by having three duplicates of the qualities on chromosome 21, as
opposed to the standard two.The guardians of the influenced individual are ordinarily
hereditarily ordinary
Those who have one tyke with Down disorder have around a 1% danger of having a moment
youngster with the disorder, if both guardians are found to have typical karyotypes.
The additional chromosome substance can emerge through a few distinctive ways.
The most widely recognized cause (around 92–95% of cases) is an entire additional duplicate of
chromosome 21, bringing about trisomy 21. In 1.0 to 2.5% of cases, a portion of the phones in
the body are typical and others have trisomy 21, known as mosaic Down syndrome.
The other basic systems that can offer ascent to Down disorder include: a Robertsonian
translocation, isochromosome, or ring chromosome.
These contain extra material from chromosome 21 and happen in around 2.5% of cases. An
isochromosome comes about when the two long arms of a chromosome isolate together as
opposed to the long and short arm isolating together amid egg or sperm improvement.
Trisomy 21 is known by the karyotype 47,XX,+21 for females and 47,XY,+21 for guys) is
brought about by a disappointment of the 21st chromosome to isolate amid egg or sperm
development.As an outcome, a sperm or egg cell is delivered with an additional duplicate of
chromosome 21; this cell therefore has 24 chromosomes.
At the point when joined with a typical cell from the other parent, the child has 47 chromosomes,
with three duplicates of chromosome 21.
Around 88% of instances of trisomy 21 result from nonseparation of the chromosomes in the
mother, 8% from nonseparation in the father, and 3% after the egg and sperm have combined.
Translocation : The additional chromosome 21 material may likewise happen due to a
Robertsonian translocation in 2–4% of cases. In this circumstance, the long arm of chromosome
21 is joined to another chromosome, regularly chromosome 14.
In a male influenced with Down disorder, it brings about a karyotype of 46XY,t(14q21q). This
might be another transformation or already display in one of the guardians.
The parent with such a translocation i.
Consider a population of lizards living on the coast of Africa. A sto.pdf
Consider a population of lizards living on the coast of Africa. A storm creates piles of debris
that the lizards use to raft to a faraway uninhabited island. Which evolutionary process is
happening? mutation selection balance the founder effect frequency-dependent selection
coalescence
Solution
Answer is. \"Founder effect\".
The lizards completely moved to new place where they never I habited before, and hence they
found new environment to adjust, which will create some environmental difference. This is
known as founder effect..
Can “discovery science” (for example, the discovery of a new species.pdf
Can “discovery science” (for example, the discovery of a new species of fossil, or a new species
of organism that is alive today) contribute to our understanding of evolution? Give examples.
Solution
Scientists seek natural causes for natural phenomena. This is the most basic description of what a
scientist aims to do every day. Their focus is limited to what they can physically observe and
measure directly, sometimes with the help of tools such as a microscope. They do not seek to
explain the supernatural as it is outside the bounds of science, but instead what is all around
them. There are basic methods of gaining knowledge that are common to all of science.
Biology uses discovery science , and hypothesis-based science . While discovery science is
mostly about describing nature, hypothesis-based science attempts to explain nature. The pair of
inquiries are widely used together in research. Observations that can be measured and verified
are the data of discovery science. In the study of life, discovery science is used to describe both
the simplest of life, and the most complex. From the building blocks of atoms and molecules all
the way up to the ecosystems and biosphere, discovery science describes it all. Discovery
science is based on the logic of inductive reasoning . Inductive reasoning uses numerous specific
observations to make a general statement.
For example: all living things are made of cells. This comes after the numerous discoveries of
cells in every specimen observed by biologists over two centuries. another example we can take
\"humans\". today we found most of the fossils of human lives who lived thousands of years
back and with help of that fossils we can understand growth and evolution human life..

You are given a mixed culture containing a anaerobic thermophile, ae.pdf
You are given a mixed culture containing a anaerobic thermophile, aerobic thermophile and
anaerobic hyperthermophile bacteria. How will you separate these into pure cultures?
Solution
In natural environments, microorganisms usually exist as mixed populations. A pure culture is
one by which all organisms are descendants of the exact same organism. A sterile medium is the
one which is free of all life forms. It is often sterilized by heating it to a temperature at which all
contaminating microorganisms are destroyed. Eventually, in functioning with microorganisms,
we ought to have a way of transferring growing organisms from a pure culture to a sterile
medium without introducing any undesirable outside contaminants. This approach of stopping
unwanted microorganisms from developing accessibility is termed aseptic technique.
Microorganisms whose optimal temperature for development is near 0oC are called
psychrophiles. The ones that grow optimally between 20oC and 45eC are called mesophiles.
These growing most useful at large conditions, 55oC to ~ 70oC and larger, are called
thermophiles. Prokaryotes that live at quite high conditions (up to 113oC ) are
hyperthermophiles. An organism that will require air for development is called aerobic. An
organism whose development can\'t arise in the presence of air is anaerobic. An organism that
may grow under either aerobic or anaerobic conditions is a facultative anaerobe. Microaerophilic
organisms involve free air but at a limited concentration. Based on this, the plates are incubated
at different temperatures with aerobic and anerobic conditions for enhancing the growth of
thermophiles and hyperthermophilc bacteria..

What is the target cell for the hormone AngiotensionogenSolut.pdf
What is the target cell for the hormone Angiotensionogen?
Solution
Answer: zona glomerulosa cells of the adrenal cortex in the adrenal gland on kidney
Reason:
Primarily low blood pressure trigger the release of precursor, angiotensinogen peptide, a serpin
family from the liver cells followed by formation of angiotensin I finally to angiotensin II in the
presence of angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE). This angiotensin II active form is going to
act on the \"zona glomerulosa cells of the adrenal cortex in the adrenal gland on kidney\" to
trigger release of aldosterone to act on kidney cells finally to the reabsorption of sodium.

Question 1 - What two different types of ocean cargo services are th.pdf
- 1. Question 1 - What two different types of ocean cargo services are there? Question 2 - Explain the concept of a flag. Why does a ship need a flag? Why would an owner choose to fly a flag of convenience? Question 3 - What are the major initiatives of the world governments in terms of cargo security? Question 4 - Briefly describe the different types of air cargo services available. Question 5 - Do you think that the demand for air cargo will increase or decrease over the next three years? Why? Solution 1) Full container load (FCL), and Less-than-container load (LCL) are the two basic types of Ocean Cargo. Less-Than-Container Load This type of shipping moves your shipment in an ocean container with other shipments. The Docker workers can easily handle the cargo. Customs clearance and delivery has to done. Full Container Load 2) The concept of flag is that if a vessel has to make an international travel, it must choose a nation under the flag of which that vessel will sail. When a merchant ship is registered in a sovereign state different from that of the ship’s owners and fly that state’s civil ensign on the ship. This business practice is called Flag of convenience. Normally the ships are registered under the flags of convenience in order to take the advantage of reduced regulation, lower administrative fees etc. Also it helps them to reduce operating costs. 3) The main initiatives relevant to maritime container security are:- Customs Trade Partnership Against Terrorism (C-TPAT):- It is aim to strengthen over all supply chain and border security. It is a joint government – business initiative. It is intended to enhance the joint efforts of both entities in developing a more secure border environment, by improving and expanding the existing security practices. The Container Security Initiative (CSI):- It was developed shortly after September 11, 2001, 14. It is basically to enhanced the security of the world’s maritime trading system.
