Originally from Germany, Jones, now age 32, earned his doctorate and taught at the University of Munich before coming to the United States, where he started his career in computers. In 1996, Jones started working with the company as a director of operations for the U.S.- Speech Engineering Service and Retrieval Technology—working on a new, closely guarded search engine tied to the company’s .net concept. The company allows employees to order an unlimited amount of software and hardware, at no cost, for business purposes. Between December 2001 and November 2002, Jones ordered or used his assistant and other employees (including a high school intern) to order nearly 1,700 pieces of software which had very low cost but were worth a lot on the street. He then resold them…arrow_forwardPlacing unreasonable expectations on a student Outline of the case You are a trainee accountant in your second year of training within a small practice. A more senior trainee has been on sick leave, and you are due to go on study leave. You have been told by your manager that, before you go on leave, you must complete some complicated reconciliation work. The deadline suggested appears unrealistic, given the complexity of the work. You feel that you are not sufficiently experienced to complete the work alone. You would need additional supervision to complete it to the required standard, and your manager appears unable to offer the necessary support. If you try to complete the work within the proposed timeframe but fail to meet the expected quality, you could face repercussions on your return from study leave. You feel slightly intimidated by your manager, and also feel pressure to do what you can for the practice in what are challenging times. Key fundamental principles affected…arrow_forward

Provide some examples to support your answer.arrow_forwardII. Case Application. Answer the following situations by applying what you have learned from the previous discussions. A customer says, "Insurance is a waste of money. If and when I suffer a financial loss because of an accident or some other event, I can pay for it from my savings account." As an insurance agent your primary goal is to change this kind of mindset, how would you persuade this person to purchase insurance? Design a strategy. At 30, Alyssa Valdez invested P50,000 in a time deposit which earns 3% per annum. With the same interest rate, how much would her earnings be at age 35 if she reinvests the interest with the principal. Show your solutionarrow_forwardAssume that you are currently working as an accountant, and your manager has to take an unexpected sick leave. Because you did very well in your accounting classes, the Senior Accountant asks you to step up and help with the review of reconciliations. What would be your first step? Maybe you would dive right into it, assuming you would figure out what to do as you moved through all the existing reconciliations, or maybe you would ask for a copy of policies and procedures for this task if any exist, so you could find instructions without asking the Senior Accountant constantly what to do. In addition to reviewing reconciliations, you will need to review disclosures to financial statements. How would you know if all the necessary disclosures were prepared and contained correct information?arrow_forward
