According to Ari Wallach, what is short-termism, and why is it a problem?
Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer:

<em><u>short-termism </u></em>

Is the acting upon short term vision of the needs and problems that must be addressed. It is a problem because the vision that is important is the Long path vision.

<em><u>What is “longpath” and why did Wallach develop the concept?  </u></em>

Is a concept that combines long term vision and goal oriented. Wallach develop that concept as he did not find a term that frame what is intended in the long run that was goal oriented.

<em><u>Briefly discuss each of the three ways of thinking that Wallach describes.  </u></em>

Transgenerational thinking: Thinking the impact of your actions in the future generations to come.  

Futures thinking: The future is not related only with better technology but with how will human relationships, moral, art and feelings like compassion will evolve.

Telos thinking: This is an invitation to think having in mind what is the "ultimate aim" of our actions as little of they might be. It is important to raise the question: how this action that I am doing now will impact or change the future in 20,50 or 100 years to come.

<em><u>How does Wallach relate the future to a part of speech? </u></em>

Wallach make a link between Thomas Khun quote: “People don’t shift unless they have a vision of what it is they’re shifting to.” an Martin Luther King Speech of "I Have a Dream" he says that that speech is successful as it shows what is the vision of what a dream must looks like

On October 1, Company B records 1 year of prepaid rent in an income statement account then adjusts for the unexpired prepaid ren
trasher [3.6K]

Answer:

The first journal entry was not the most appropriate, but since the mistake was correctly adjusted at the end of the year, both assets and expenses will be the same whether they did it correctly the first time or they had to adjust a mistake at the end of the year.

E.g. something like this happened

October 1, rent expense for 1 year

Dr Rent expense 12,000

    Cr Cash 12,000

December 31, adjustment to rent expense

Dr Prepaid rent 10,000

    Cr Rent expense 10,000

they should have recorded it as:

October 1, prepaid rent for 1 year

Dr Prepaid rent 12,000

    Cr Cash 12,000

December 31, adjustment to rent expense

Dr Rent expense 2,000

    Cr Prepaid rent 2,000

Whichever way you recorded the transactions, the balances a the end of the year would be:

prepaid rent (asset) $10,000

rent expense (expense) $2,000
