The current owners claim that the business is highly profitable, but Mary Ann has her doubts. She wonders why the owners would be so interested in selling the business if it is such a money maker. Furthermore, the price that they are asking seems high to Mary Ann. Without any formal training in accounting, Mary Ann asks a friend, Rolanda, for advice. (1) Rolanda suggests that Mary Ann may benefit from the services of a noncertified public accountant. Describe two (2) types of services that could be provided. (2) The auditor’s report has come back and Mary Ann is reviewing the financial statements. The current balance sheet shows that the business has more liabilities than assets.

HISTORY -content– 1-The Ratification Debate There are two very different camps within the Constitutional debate – the Federalist advocate a stronger central government while the Anti-Federalists propose maintaining the looser confederation of States. Which position do you believe in most? Secondly, using your knowledge of our contemporary political parties, which of today’s parties do you feel supports your preference? 2-The Alien and Sedition Acts What were the Alien and Sedition Acts – a necessary tool for the protection of the fledgling Republic or and Adam’s attempt to silence dissent, both within his own party and in the opposition? Throughout our history we have used this law – or one strikingly similar to silence the opposition in times of crisis. Given the most recent developments, do we need such a law to protect our republic? Is it proper to try, convict, and sentence “prisoners of war” in US military courts martial? 3-Transitioning Power Some historians state that the peaceful transition of power marks the major difference between America and other ‘democracies’ such as the Greek Polis and the (early) Roman Republic. Was there in fact a peaceful transition during this period and do we still have that legacy today? 4-We’ve always done it this way The South could have taken a far different course during the early days of the Industrial Revolution and not only fully participated but actually dominated the era. What would have been some of the advantages of such a move and why didn’t they do it? 5-Nullification A hallmark of our Republic is the balance of power – between the branches of the federal government; between the state and federal governments; but especially between the government and the governed. Nullification is an important part of that process. How do we keep one branch or one part of our government from becoming too all-powerful? What was the Nullification Crisis and should we allow states to nullify federal law? Does power really “originate from the people through their directly elected state legislatures”? 6-We can’t do this anymore What were the Abolitionist’s main strategies used to achieve their goals? Which one(s) were the most (and least) effective and why? 7-Succession Did the South have the right to leave the union? 8-The Emancipation Proclamation The Emancipation Proclamation is often described as a politically perfect document but a morally lacking one. Why or Why not? 9-Reconstruction What was the immediate and long term impact of the ‘Reconstruction Amendments’ ? PLACE THIS ORDER OR A SIMILAR ORDER WITH US TODAY AND GET A GOOD DISCOUNT Read More »
