Comparison of Centralized and Decentralized Logistics
$55.00by Fiverr TutorsCommon ways to limit the topic include selecting a particular industry, considering a type of product, and domestic versus international logistics.
You should develop a goal in developing the research paper. This goal will also help you narrow the topic and identify where you want to focus your research.
Some examples of goals include:
1. Recognize the importance of strategic logistical issues and their relationship to attainment of supply chain objectives.
2. Measure the environmental forces, trends, and strategic issues facing organizations in both the public, private and non-profit sectors so that students can devise logistics strategies that can deal with these circumstances.
3. Apply the evolving concepts of supply chain management and how the logistics function is expanding into a larger and more proactive role in managing the complete materials cycle. Students will be challenged to devise logistics strategies that mutually support the organization’s marketing and financial efforts.
4. Recognize the importance of internal and external partnering and how logistics organizations are devising strategies where logistics plays a key role within the organization.
5. Devise logistics strategies that consider overall cost of ownership, quality, best value, and optimal inventory objectives.
6. Devise logistics strategies for use of third-party logistics service providers for fulfilling requirements.
7. Recognize trends in international logistics and what factors logistics professionals should consider in planning international logistics options.
8. Apply the broader responsibilities of logistics so that they can contribute to ethical organizational practices, meeting environmental objectives, and improve the attainment of socio-economic programs.
9. Devise a futuristic perspective of what logistics will be like in the next century by examining trends and research on the knowledge and skill requirements for the logistics in the next decade.
10. Recognize the importance of logistics in dealing with natural and humanitarian disasters, such as Hurricane Katrina or war.
11. The course goals / objects are also another source of topic ideas. As previously mentioned, these goals are not topics per se. Instead, your topic should be a sub-set to meet one of the goals. For example, a research paper topic based upon item number 2 above may be: “Comparing the logistical challenges facing for-profit organization and non-profit agencies after a natural disaster.”
Evidence of Research:
Your paper should provide evidence that you’ve read the literature that’s included in the bibliography of the paper. This can be done by referencing works throughout the paper or quoting an author in the text.

Coursework topic
Write response to the following question. Observe the instructions detailed below.
“What is the significance for financial economics of the concept of arbitrage?”
To ensure that there are no last minute hitches, please do not leave it until the last minute. Under School of Social Sciences rules an extension of one week only can be given via the extenuating circumstances procedure, and only if supported by compelling documentary evidence. If you attempt to upload one second after the deadline the computer will “say no”. Anyone failing to submit may be given the opportunity to resit in the summer, delaying their graduation. If there are good reasons for failing to submit, the extenuating circumstances procedure should be invoked. As this module is now a core module for almost all students taking it, it cannot be compensated – so it must be passed, either on first sitting, or on resit. No second resit opportunities are permitted.
Coursework instructions
In the past, been given a mark which was the aggregate of marks obtained for the ten aspects detailed below. This is not the case now. Each will receive a single mark reflecting its quality – but the ten aspects will all be taken into consideration and failure to observe the instructions on any aspect will led to loss of marks. Failure to fulfil any aspect of the requirement for a category may result in a loss of marks directly, but it will also very likely result in the loss of further marks elsewhere. For example, if your English is poor, you are likely to lose marks for poor English, but you will inevitably lose further marks to the extent that it obscures your meaning.

Memo Activity: Inventory
$5.00by Fiverr TutorsInventory is the most significant asset on the balance sheet. It can make or break a company, depending on the amount of inventory involved. Keeping inventory at a minimum is a best-case scenario.
You are the controller of Toys for Twins, Inc. Linda Barnes, the president, recently mentioned to you that she found an error in the 2006 financial statements which she believes has corrected itself. She determined, in discussions with the Purchasing Department, that the 2006 ending inventory was overstated by $1 million. Linda says that the 2007 ending inventory is correct. Thus, she assumes that 2007 income is correct. Linda says to you, “What happened has happened—there’s no point in worrying about it anymore.”
You conclude that Linda is incorrect. Write a brief 200-300 word, professional memo to Linda and clarify the situation.

Auditing Assignment Seven Busi 3343
$20.00by Fiverr TutorsQuestion 1 (5 marks)
You are the auditor of Brody Grass Inc. The CEO expressed a concern that the audit fees for the year were very high. You then explained that this is largely due to poor internal controls in the cash and transaction cycle and that the audit fees could decrease if better controls were in place.
Provide 5 examples of general cash account controls that Brody Grass Inc. could implement.
Question 2 (6 Marks)
You are the auditor for GreenAcres, a non-profit home for homeless elderly. GreenAcres has a December 31 year end. It receives government funding, and also relies upon donations for revenue. GreenAcres has a major funding drive in November, when it collects pledges by means of activities at a garage sale, a walkathon, and fall bake sale events in the community.
During late February you had a meeting with Ellen Famous, the President of GreenAcres, at the organization’s premises. Ellen reviews and approves bank statements and is the second and final cheque signer. Two other accounting staff have the following responsibilities:
- Paul approves pledge write-offs (which normally average about 15%), opens the mail, endorses cheques received in the mail, prepares and delivers bank deposits, and posts transactions into the accounting system.
- Diana, a retired bookkeeper, volunteers about 10 hours per week to reconcile the bank account, review journal entries posted to the general ledger, and prepare payroll and accounts payable transactions for processing.
Ellen normally reviews pledge write-offs, but was very busy in February, so she took a look while you were there. To her surprise, she found that about 40% of the pledges had been written off. She asked Diana to investigate, and Diana found that most of the write-offs had actually been paid.
Required:
- A) What are possible causes of the inconsistency with the pledge write-offs?
- B) What are the weaknesses in internal control that could allow the excess write-offs to occur? Provide recommendations for improvement.
- C) Identify audit procedures that you would complete to quantify any potential misstatement with respect to the pledges receivable balance as at December 31.
Question 3 (6 marks)
Following are situations that an auditor might find by means of tests of controls or tests of details of cash balances for a company with a December year end.
- A) The accountant did not record or deposit a cash receipt for $50,000 that was received on December 28. Cash is prelisted by the receptionist.
- B) Cheques prepared up to January 6 were dated December 31 and recorded in the cash disbursements journal.
- C) A cheque was issued for office supplies that were never received by the client.
Required:
List a substantive audit procedure that could uncover each of the preceding situations.
