...You have been with Zaird & Associates for approximately three months and are completing your work on the BizCaz audit. BizCaz produces pullover knit shirts to address the business casual market for both men and women. Although your experience has been limited, an unexpected staff resignation has resulted in your working directly with the engagement's in-charge senior on inventory. This has been a learning experience for you, because you have helped perform various tests of controls which may be summarized as indicating that internal control over inventory (including the perpetual records) seems strong. It is your impression that those tests resulted in a decrease in substantive procedures, thereby allowing a particularly efficient audit. At the beginning of the audit, Jan Wheeler, the in-charge senior, told you that the management team of BizCaz has always been helpful and friendly. Throughout the audit you have found the situation to be as good as described. In fact, BizCaz allows each auditor to purchase up to three shirts at a particularly attractive price of $12 per shirt, the cost for which employees may purchase shirts. The shirts have a market value of $50, although the direct labor and material costs of each shirt are only $10. Near the conclusion of the audit, after you and the other three staff members paid the controller and told him your sizes, he walked to the warehouse, removed 12 shirts from the appropriate piles, and brought them out. That evening you gave...

The feedback which I got from the target audience is that the product overall is educational and that the information given on each page was the right amount. The users also commented on the videos, they believed that the videos form the techniques section was a good idea of for the users to actually visualize the shot and that they will be more likely to understand how to do the shots and will be able to do it themselves. Another user also commented on the rollover buttons which are on the menu page; they thought that it was an interesting feature to the product. Also they said that the navigation of the product was easy as I had every button on each page which made it easy for them to look at different pages without them going back to the menu page. Improvements to be made from the feedback: One of the test users stated out that I have included a smash shot on the introduction animation; however, I didn’t include this particular shot on the techniques page. I will include a page which gives information about the smash shot; this is because the user who stated out the error is a professional badminton player and wrote that this is shot is the shots which are used in badminton. I will include relevant information about the forehand smash and backhand smash and also I will...

Karen is living at home with her mother and father, while Michelle is living with her aunt, and as Michelle claims it´s because of her mother´s attempt to get into Hollywood.

...Hoods became popular in Britain a lot earlier than most people would think, stretching all the way back to the middle ages where many outdoor workers wore hooded capes in order to protect themselves from harsh weather conditions, these were often called ‘chaperones’. They were also frequent in early Christian Monasticism, the greater majority of the devotees to the Christian faith at this time sported robes that had large hoods attached to them. These are different examples of how far back we have been attaching hoods to our clothing for varied reasons, it is clear however that before the 20th century the main reasons for wearing a hood were associated with the weather; e.g. peasantry working outdoors. The trend of hoods acting as a worker’s utility lasted many years, and eventually, in the early 20th century, the modern day ‘hoodie’ was born. ‘Champion’, the American clothing company began creating hooded sweatshirts for workers and athletes in order to protect them from cold weather. The following quote from a Rolling Stone article exploring similar themes explains the theory behind Champion’s creation; ‘Employees at cold-storage warehouses and tree surgeons working through the winter were calling for a garment that would provide more warmth than their long underwear. Meanwhile Champion was working directly with high schools to determine their apparel needs, eventually making big double-thickness hooded sweatshirts that football and track athletes wore on the sidelines in...

...Prelude to a Kiss took place during the spring and summer in the late 1980s. The costumes that were worn reflected the time period and the season. The costumes were not futuristic or from the past, but rather fairly modern clothes. They were clothes that you might see someone wearing today. Since the play took place in the summer and spring, none of the costumes included anything heavy, such as coats or winter clothes. The costumes gave clues about the characters personalities and lives. The costumes were appropriate for each character. Mr. Boyle wore a suit, which reflected that he was a working man from the middle to upper class. Mrs. Boyle’s costume was that of a mother. The costume was not revealing and she was always put together. The old man, who was played by a female, had special effect makeup on which made the character of the old man look very real. The makeup made the actor look bald and wrinkly. Without the makeup, the character of the old man would not have been as believable and lifelike. The guests at the bar all had on costumes that were appropriate for night life. For example, the women at the bar were all dressed in dresses or skirts and heals. At the wedding, the characters costumes were all appropriate wedding attire, such as suits and dresses. Rita wore a typical long white wedding dress and had a bouquet of flowers. The minister seemed to be somewhat of a hippie or free spirit and her costume reflected on her personality. She had on a flowing shirt and...

...AC1110568Assignment 01 In the early 1800 clothing was made by hand, families sewed their pants, shirt and dresses using a needle and thread. But in 1866 Elias Howe changed all that he came up with another way to make clothes. Elias Howe patented the first practical sewing machine this sewing machine make the industry come back on his original invention made it possible for man production of clothing on a much larger scale that ever been possible with hand stitching. The impact of the sewing machine on the economy is huge. Specifically the sewing machine greatly impacted the textile industry and women. Because women were the ones working in the textile mills they were the ones to use the machine, however some believed that this would infringe on their craft as skilled seamstresses. Others thought this to be a wonder and felt it freed them to pursue other things rather than sit home and sew clothes. In some way the women working with the machines gained a new skill, and were seen as important for the industry. The sewing machine allowed clothing to become a mass produced item which increased the social acceptance of the sewing machine. Besides the commercial sewing machine, the household machine became very popular when it became electric. If you had electric in your home you could have a sewing machine and it was even easier and faster than the hand powered models. The sewing machine also helped other industries grow, for example the need for large quantities of thread...

...I often patronize the nearby supermarket to buy the necessaries of life on the weekend. There is one thing I purchase every time – pocket tissue. Because we often need to use the paper towels which are easy to carry. One Saturday night, I walked around in the nearby Wal-Mart, then stopped at the pocket tissue stall. I’m going to buy 12 packed pocket tissues because I found all One summer day, I would travel with my boss to another city for business. But suddenly, I found I didn’t have semi-sleeve shirt, and the business is very formal. The flight would take off in four hours and two hours had to be reserved for transportation and check-in. So I had only two hours to buy semi-sleeve shirt. After packed my luggage, I took taxi to nearest plaza-Chicony Plaza. And I went straight to male floor. I walked fast to check every shop if there is any shirt I like. Just walked through two shops, one saleswoman talked to me passionately: “What do you want, sir?” I replied: “Semi-sleeve shirt”. Another older saleswoman inside replied quickly: “we have several styles here; you can look them for your favorite”. I knew everything in plaza was not cheap and I didn’t like wear shirt (both full-sleeve and semi-sleeve shirt) at all. So I asked the two saleswomen: “what’s your average price?”“From several hundred to more than two thousand, what’s your preference?”. “So, pls. show me some shirts less than eight hundred.” I said my price ceiling. And I added:“do you have any discount now?”“Well...
