Rainbow [258]

2. Stricter Government Policies

3. High rates in crimes, kidnappings and killings

Explanation:

It is evident from statistics that the rate of incarceration in the United States is more than half of most countries in the World. It means that out 716 people out of 100000 people in the world are incarcerated in the United states.This is true due to the following reasons

The United States also functions as 51 separate countries, because so many of the criminal justice decisions are made at the local and state levels.

Suppose that you open a mutual fund account with a deposit of 500 dollars. 5 months later, the fund balance is 600 dollars, and

faust18 [17]

Answer:

The question is not complete, below is the complete question:

Suppose that you open a mutual fund account with a deposit of 500 dollars. 5 months later, the fund balance is 600 dollars, and you withdraw 216 dollars. A year after the account was opened, your balance is X dollars. If the dollar weighted and time weighted rates of return were the same, what is the rate of return? (Assume simple interest for the dollar weighted calculation.) Answer should be a percent!!!

Answer:

The rate of return is 48% on deposited fund.

Explanation:

The rate of return on investment is the percentage increase on an amount invested for a particular period of time, and to calculate this, we will use the simple interest formula:

I = P × R × T

Where:

P = principal = $500

R = rate in decimal ( %rate/100)

T = time = 5 months = 5/12 years

I = interest = Principal - final balance = 600 - 500 = $100

∴ 100 = 500 × R/100 × 5/12

100 = $\frac{2500R}{1200}$

120,000 = 2500R

∴ R = 120,000 ÷ 2500 = 48%

Therefore rate of return (R) = 48%

For a clearer understanding of the concept of interests, let us calculate for the balance after one year (X) as shown below:

I = P×R×T

T = 1 because, X is the balance after one year.

I = 500 × 48/100 × 1

I = $240

therefore the final amount after one year = interest + principal

= 240 + 500 = 740

but we were told that $216 was withdrawn at 5 months, hence the balance after one year = 740 - 216 = $524

almond37 [142]

Answer:

1.) It depends on an individual position and conscience. If I am stuck in such a situation with people of CEO, COO etc stand i'd be worried about not only my job but also about my career. As these kinda instances can dismantle your career and can have a lasting effect.In my case i'd not have volunteered as the CEO,COO have the power to dissappear information and documents. It would be a blind move if i go and volunteer for it and they documents are not found. However, if the situation is different and i am in possession of those copies of cheques then i'd be blunt in sharing the same to concerned authorities. Also if you have the evidence with you ,no position can coerce you into doing anything once you provide it to concerned authorities because then you have the edge.

2.) loans without sufficient collateral, drawing cheques in spouses's names,paying of personal expenses from corporate credits etc.,

These are just allegations ,if none of them are proved in the court or inquiry ,then these are mere allegations. if however,are supported by evidences,these can be a case if unethical practices.

3.) The ethics of a professional Accountant are-

a.) objectivity- Seeing the things as they are with no bias. Assuming everything that you work for as something pure and respect your work in any way possible.

b.) honesty- One who stands honest with his job are poster figures for any department or organisation a person work on or for. It is implied for anyone to be honest to his work.

c.) Professional competence- An employees is supposed to be of professional competence to his work and organisation. He is required to keep.his knowledge update to that level.of oragnisation's requirement.

d.) Confidentiality- is what the Job descripition states. An accountant by profession is not allowed in any way to share the information of his clients or organisation unless law specifies it so.

e.) Professional Behaviour- A professional behaviour. includes reaching the work on time,completion.of duties to the firm , work within the organisation for its betterment etc. It is in the job description in any organisation

4.) FDIC'S OFFICERS should have been more careful and diligent while working on the case. Each and every department concerned to the alleged wrongdoers sould have been checked for evidences which they clearly didnot do. They were not 100% vigilant with their work which is what made the situation awkard for you.

5.) lesson's that can be learnt are- Business are way too practical and decisions have to be made on the merit of the situation. You can follow your gut in business just as you do or can in life. But sometimws all it takes is one moment that gets you in a position where nobody can touch. In this instance if you had those copies of cheques in your possession,no CEO ,or COO can coerce you into doing anything and at that moment it solely depends upon your reading of the situation.
