Summary the article below in the bullet point :
How can engineers make steel that doesn\'t baulk at hydrogen?
For over 100 years engineers have known that hydrogen can cause metals to become incredibly
brittle, but they\'ve been able to do little to protect against it. Now, Oxford University researchers
are working on a large collaborative project to build the metals of the future, that can retain their
strength in the presence of this disruptive gas.
Steel has a reputation for being strong: it\'s used in everything from your car\'s chassis and the
reinforced concrete joists that supports buildings, to the internal workings of jet engines and the
cables that hold up the world\'s largest suspension bridges. But while advances in high-strength
steel technology theoretically allow engineers to use less of the material – making it possible to
create structures that are lighter as well as stronger – there exists a problem holding some of the
materials back from widespread adoption.
There are new materials sitting on the shelf that could be used for many kinds of applications –
construction, aerospace, cars, all sorts,\' explains Professor Alan Cocks from the University\'s
Department of Engineering Science. \'But companies are afraid to use some of them because of
their susceptibility to what\'s known as hydrogen embrittlement.\' First observed before the turn
of the 20th century, hydrogen embrittlement is a phenomenon where some materials –
particularly steel, but also metals like zirconium and titanium – become far weaker when
exposed to hydrogen.
Professor Cocks points out that some steels can suffer a decrease in strength by as much as a
factor of 10 when they\'re exposed to hydrogen, which means that they could fail when subjected
to just a tenth of the maximum stress they can usually withstand. If engineers could find a way to
overcome this weakness, they could more confidently use some materials – predominantly steels,
but also the likes of titanium for aerospace applications or the zirconium sheathing of nuclear
power rods.
\'It seems like it should be a straightforward problem to solve,\' explains Professor Cocks. \'But
there\'s immense controversy about why it happens, and despite lots of experimental studies and
theoretical modelling there\'s still no real solution.\' That\'s why researchers from Oxford
University are working on a large collaborative project – along with Cambridge University,
Imperial College London, King\'s College London and the University of Sheffield – to finally
understand its causes and build new materials that overcome them.
To make progress, the researchers decided to put together a team that understood metals from the
atom up. So the team includes Oxford scientists from the Department of Materials, who
investigate how materials work at the atomic level, and from the Department of Engineering
Science, who model the larger-scale properties of the materials and the ways that hydrogen can
move through the metallic s.

Components of a Time Series
There are four components to a time series: the trend, the cyclical variation, the seasonal
variation, and the irregular variation.
Secular Trend
The long-term trends of sales, employment, stock prices, and other business and
economic series follow various patterns. Some move steadily upward, others decline,
and still others stay the same over time.
The following are several examples of a secular trend..
Submit the introduction to fraud as it applies to your case study of.pdf
Submit the introduction to fraud as it applies to your case study of WorldCom analysis. Consider
the elements of fraud, the theories of crime causation, red flags of evidence based on the
elements of the fraud triangle, regulatory and legal factors in preventing and/or detecting fraud,
and developments in the accounting industry that impact fraud investigation
Solution
Fraud:Fraud simply meaning is a false representation of a matter of fact-whether it is by a word
or by conduct or by hiding that was required or important to disclose.Gaining an unfair
advantage over another person is considered fraud (Romney & Steinbart 2008). To be considered
a fraud, the deception must be characterized by “a false statement, representation, or disclosure”;
“a material fact,” that causes the fraudster to initiate the fraud; the “intention to deceive”; a
“justifiable reliance” of the fraudster on the misstatements; and an injured party.While there are
different types of fraud, the most common type of fraud is the misstatement of financial
statements (Albrecht & Albrecht, 2004). The fraud is committed on behalf of the organization,
usually through the acts of top management, as in the case of WorldCom. In management fraud,
management is the perpetrator and the companys stockholders, lenders, and other users of
financial information are the victims (Albrecht & Albrecht 2004).The reason behind these
manipulations is usually to “increase the companys stock price, meet cash flow needs, or hide
company losses and problems”.
The final element of the fraud triangle is rationalization: a form of justification in the mind of the
perpetrators of their illegal behavior (Romney & Steinbart, 2008). Most perpetrators, as in the
case of WorldCom, are first-time offenders with no criminal background that allows them to use
rationalization to hide their dishonesty (Albrecht & Albrecht, 2004). Due to the economic
conditions that existed at the time of the fraud, the managers who made the journal entries
presumed the misstatement to be a one-time act (Beresford, Katzenbach, & Rogers, 2003).
WorldCom, a telecommunications company, was a victim of these expectations that led to the
evolution of a fraud designed to deceive the public until the economic outlook improved.
Through understanding what led to the fraud, how the fraud grew, and what its effects were,
lessons can be derived to gain a better understanding of the reasons behind a fraud and to prevent
future frauds from occurring or growing as big as the WorldCom fraud did..

community based non for profits. To minimize financial and operational damage, it is important
to stay calm and follow step by step plan.
Why conduct a fraud examination ?
There are many reason why organizations choose to conduct fraud examination. A properly
excuted fraud examination can address a number of organizational objectives including:
1. Identified improper conduct
2. Identifying the persons responsible for improper conduct
3. Stopping Fraud
4. Sending a message throughout the organization that fraud will not be tolerated.
5. Determining the extent of potential liabilities or losses that might exist.
6. Stopping future losses
7. Strenghening internl control weakness.
The term fraud exaimination refers to a process of resolving allegations of fraud from inception
to disposition, and it is the primary function of the anti fraud professional. Below is the fraud
examination process:
1. Obtaining Evidence
2. Reporting
3. Testifying
4. Assisting in fraud detection and prevention.
Worldcom, now known as MCI Inc was founded in 1983 as LDDS. The telecommunication
company experienced rapid growth in the 1990s primarily due to several large acqusitions. The
company became World com inc. in 1995 following the purchase of Williams
Telecommunication Group Inc .
In early 2002 , during the internal audit , it was discovered that worldcom had made several
transfer that were not in accordance with U.S GAAP. The in correct accounting used involved
internal transfer within expense and capital expenditure accounts, as well as large personal loans
by the company totaling around $400 million.
The SEC officially filed fraud charges against WorldCom on Jun 26,2002. Immediately folloeing
this news, the stock price of world Com shares plummeted. Stock had recently been trading
around $ 15 per share, but fell to $ 0.20 folowing reports of fraud charges.Not only were
investors affected in the immediate aftermath, but also employees. Within three days of
announcment, 17,000 employee were fired..

Suppose a point is randomly selected along a line segment of length L. What is the probability
the longer of the two segments on either side of this point is more than twice as long as the
shorter segment?
Solution
ok..see....the critical point is 1/3L because (1-1/3L) = 2L/3 which is twice the
shorter length. so..divide the line by a point at 1/3L or before it. So, (1L/3)/L = 1/3.

Suppose a Math 1040 class has 25 students and 5 if them are not pun.pdf
Suppose a Math 1040 class has 25 students and 5% if them are not punctual. Let the random
variable X represent the number of students which are late to class. Find the mean of X, the
average
number students late to class, and the standard deviation of X.
I believe the mean is np= 25*.05= 1.25
The standard deviation would be (np(1-.05)) = (1.25*.95) = 1.09
But how would you finf the average? Is it just the meam, 1.25?
Solution
You\'re correct, the average and the mean are the same thing (1.25)..
Suppose a large number of new immigrants enter the labor market. Ass.pdf
Suppose a large number of new immigrants enter the labor market. Assume this increase in the
supply of labor provides a drag on wage increases: wages rise by less than the prevailing rate of
inflation over the next year. Use the short-run model to explain how the economy responds to
this change.
**Please show detailed work and supporting graphs.
Solution
i cannot draw graph, but clearly explain in detail,you can understan easily.
when new immigrants enter into a place, the immediate impact is on essential commodities like
food products, housing requirements and all other servicess. because of increasing in number the
demand for all the services and products will be increse, supply will remain same. so, once
demand is higher than supply the prices will goes up, what we usually called as inflation.
because of increase in labor the wages will comes down, the people income levels come down
and their expenditure levels also comes down. if they are not in a position to buy goods and
services, the demand for these products declines and it also impacts the employability.
in short run we assume that few of the factors of inputs are constant like land, material and
capital. ofcourse the labor power is variable input, but according to the increase in labor levels
the production of output can not be increased. because all the remaning inputs are assumes
constant in short term.
if the situation contineous for a long time, in long term all factors of inputs are variable and
increase in inputs leads to increase in productivity and employment in the particular nation..

Subject \" Forensic Accountng\"
As we move forward, and computer technology improves, we will have the ability to utilize
programs to look for \"red flags\" or anomalies within a companies books. The other side of this
coin is that this technology can also be utilized to conduct fraudulent operations, and an article in
Accounting today even suggests that this will be the direction that fraud goes in 2015.
If a company is suspected of fraud, or a whistleblower comes to the SEC with information fraud
examiners will get to work! HOW an auditor investigate it.
Solution
Fraud has become very complicated in this era of technology, and increasingly difficult to detect,
especially when it is collusive in nature and committed by top management who are capable of
concealing it.
Over the last two decades, there have been developments concerning fraud which some have
seen as marking significant extension to audit responsibilities. The business community,
especially the accounting profession, has become increasingly concerned about the rise in
management fraud. Recent internal reports suggest that employee fraud is pervasive, plaguing
both large and small organization alike.
If a company is suspected of fraud or a whistle blower comes to SEC,an auditor has to conduct
thorough investigation to get the root of the fraud and carry out necessary actions accordingly.
First,we will take a look at various types of frauds that can prevail and different investigation
procedures.
TYPES OF INVESTIGATION
The forensic accountant could be asked to investigate many different types of fraud. It is useful
to categorise these types into three groups to provide an overview of the wide range of
investigations that could be carried out. The three categories of frauds are corruption, asset
misappropriation and financial statement fraud.
Corruption
There are three types of corruption fraud: conflicts of interest, bribery, and extortion. Research
shows that corruption is involved in around one third of all frauds.
Asset misappropriation
By far the most common frauds are those involving asset misappropriation, and there are many
different types of fraud which fall into this category. The common feature is the theft of cash or
other assets from the company, for example:
Financial statement fraud
This is also known as fraudulent financial reporting, and is a type of fraud that causes a material
misstatement in the financial statements. It can include deliberate falsification of accounting
records; omission of transactions, balances or disclosures from the financial statements; or the
misapplication of financial reporting standards. This is often carried out with the intention of
presenting the financial statements with a particular bias, for example concealing liabilities in
order to improve any analysis of liquidity and gearing.
CONDUCTING AN INVESTIGATION
The process of conducting a forensic investigation is, in many ways, similar to the process of
conducting an audit, but with s.

The process of conducting a forensic investigation is, in many ways, similar to the process of
conducting an audit, but with s.
Suppose 10 independent and random points are selected from a uniform.pdf
Suppose 10 independent and random points are selected from a uniform distribution on the
interval (0, 1). Let X denote the largest value of the 10 points. Find the expected value of X,
E(X). (10) Hint: F(x) = P(X ? x) = P (all ten points ? x).
Solution
uniform distribution is given by f(x) = 1/(b-a) a<=x<=b E(X) = (a + b)/2 a = 0 b =
1 Therefore, E(X) = 1/2.
Suppos the Y1 is normally distributed with mean 5 and variance 1 and.pdf
Suppos the Y1 is normally distributed with mean 5 and variance 1 and Y2 is normally distributed
with mean 4 and variance 3. If Y1 and Y2 are independent, what is P(Y1 > Y2)?
Solution
D=Y1-Y2 is normal with mean 5-4=1 and variance 1+3=4
P(Y1>Y2)=P(D>0)=P(Z>(0-1)/sqrt(4))=P(Z>-1/2)=0.6915 where Z is the standard normal
distribution.
Suppoe you have the folllowing coins in your pocket 5 cents, 10 cen.pdf
Suppoe you have the folllowing coins in your pocket: 5 cents, 10 cents, 20 cents, 50 cents, $1,
$2. How many different sums of money can you make?
Can you show steps to the solution?
Solution
you have 2 optios for each coin 1 or 0
lets consider binary format each digit represents single type of coin
111111 suggests that you have taken all coins so toatal is 3$ 85 cents
so total combinations are 2^6-1=63.
