...Computer based radar system have been used on board naval vessels since the 1950’s but not until the end of the 1960’s did systems for merchant maritime use come onto the market • These systems were well received because of new, more economical technology and good business conditions for shipping. • It is not by chance that the transition from conventional radar to ARPA has been compared to the pre- and post-radar era onboard ships. We can expect some of the same problem as in that first transition if proper and thorough training is not received. • When it works properly, ARPA is a fantastic tool in the hands of a qualified navigator with proper training. In the hands of untrained personnel, it is a dangerous tool, which can add to the cause of collision. • One main requirement for all users of ARPA is to have good knowledge of the principles of manual plotting in order to understand the information given by the instrument. On the same principles, it is necessary to obtain maximum usage of the equipment in a safe and responsible manner. • Since the first computerized radar system was introduced up to this present time many different ways of presenting the information has been developed, produced and delivered, today, regardless of graphic presentation. • All ARPA systems must be able to present target information in form of both relative and true vectors. Both types of vectors should be time...

...at Pyro Presentations. This business is a family owned, and operated fireworks display company based in Oregon. Due to a large number of senior staff members retiring and business expansion, it became prudent to promote junior staff members as well as develop new positions to be filled. This paper will propose a strategy to influence the key stakeholders following the Cohen-Bradford Model of Influence without Authority. Briefly describe a change effort that could be instituted at this organization. This may be an actual change effort that has previously occurred, one that is currently ongoing, or a fictitious one that you believe is appropriate for the organization. Besides the manager and assistance manager positions at Pyro Presentations, there are two general types of employees: the senior staff members and the junior staff members. The power structure hinged on this division of workers. This dichotomy in power worked for many years until the senior staff began retiring. The issue soon became apparent, that with all those once in power retiring, a new power base needed to be formally established amongst the junior staff. Clarifying goals and priorities is the second step in the influence model. The purpose, in this case, is promoting junior staff members and creating new positions to support the expanding business. Identify one or two key stakeholders you will attempt to influence. The first key stakeholder is Bill, the owner and manager of Pyro Presentations. The second...

...Leases: Practical implications of the new Leases Standard Introduction The International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) and the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) (the Boards) are working together to improve the accounting for leases. In an effort to achieve this objective, the Boards reached a common ground that a customer (lessee) leasing assets should recognise assets and liabilities arising from those leases, including leases that are off balance sheet today. The Boards jointly published a revised Exposure Draft Leases (the 2013 ED) in May 2013. The Boards received extensive feedback on their proposals, and have heard a broad range of views. Since March 2014 the Boards have re-deliberated on nearly all aspects of the project. They will decide upon the effective date of the new Leases Standard in the next few months. The IASB has indicated that it has plans to issue the new Leases Standard before the end of 2015. The lessee accounting model developed The model is from the view that, at the inception of a lease, the lessee obtains the right to use an asset for a period of time and has an obligation to pay for that right. Therefore, it requires that for all leases, the lessee should: * recognise lease assets and liabilities on the balance sheet, initially measured at the present value of unavoidable lease payments; * recognise amortisation of lease assets and interest on lease liabilities over the lease term; and * separate the total amount of cash paid into...

...To: FASB / IASB From: Billy Leigh Re: Proposed Changes to Financial Statement Presentation Dear Members of IASB / FASB, As I understand it, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) and International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) are proposing a joint venture to change the presentation of financial statements. I appreciate the opportunity to comment on the proposed changes. It is in my humble opinion that the current requirements for financial statement presentation allow for too many alternative ways to present the same events or activities. In addition, the information presented is often too aggregated for financial statement users to gain any real insight into a company’s financial position. Because users of financial statements interpret valuable information from these documents, it is of the utmost importance that both the FASB and IASB ensure that this information is as consistent and detailed as possible. This increase in detail and consistency will better allow users of financial statements to fully understand the relationship between an entity’s financial statements and financial results. (1) It should be expected that changes to an established system would be met with some dismay from both preparers and users of financial statements. The increased time and cost it will take to prepare financial statements, as well as peoples’ reluctance to accept change will make this transition difficult. However, once these changes have gained a...
