An Accounting Case

...game 1: Deyonne’s assets: 1. 400 sheep 2. 20 acres of land 3. A one-room cabin 4. A plow 5. Two carts 6. An ox Deyonne’s liabilities and deduction of assets: 1. 35 sheep 2. 3 sheep Due to the information, 20 acres of land equal 80 sheep according to the exchange rate of last year, a one-room cabin equal 3 acres of land and equal 12 sheep finally, a plow equals 2 goat and equal 2/3 sheep according to last year’s exchange rate and 2 carts which were traded with a poor acre of land equals 8 sheep plus 400 sheep. So Deyonne’s total assets are 500(2/3) sheep. Deyonne’s liabilities and assets deduction are 35 sheep plus 3 sheep, which will come to 38 sheep, therefore, his total net assets are 462(2/3) sheep. Batonne’s assets: 1. 360 sheep 2. 30 acres of land (which were trade with 35 sheep 10 years ago) 3. 10 acres of land (which were trade current year) 4. 10 goats ( 3 goat equals 1 sheep according to last year’s price) 5. An ox ( equals 3 sheep) 6. A two-room cabin (worth 3 acres of land) Explanations: 1. Although Batonne obtained 20 acres of land 10 years ago with 35 sheep, the worth of land increased to 4 sheep per acre of land. So all the land should be converted to sheep according to this later price. 2. There is no exchange price for the poor land, so it is assumed that the price for poor land is also 4 sheep per acre of land. 3. Because the order Batonne’s wife received...

Baderman Island

...premiere vacation and relaxation destination, but things are just getting started. Of the nearly 1600 acres of the island, only 750 have been developed. That means that there are still over 800 acres of wilderness and development that are still in the works. Of course this doesn’t mean that the entire island will be over-developed. We at Baderman Island have intentionally designed permanent wilderness areas – in addition to the 375 acres of the botanical gardens -- that will be integrated into the master plan of the Island.Here are just a few things that we have in the works: Pepicello Fairways are planning on adding an additional 18 holes of golf on 75 open acres adjacent to the existing golf course. This new range will be designed for those golfers seeking the additional challenge needed to drive up their game. The WIlliam C. Martin Botanical Gardens are growing. Currently the 225 acres of preserved wilderness is home to abundant wildlife, exotics plants, and colorful butterflies. In attempt to better protect the gardens, an additional 150 acre buffer area is being created around the garden. Additionally, the existing walking and hiking trails are being expanded to make for better access for wheelchairs and those guests that request golf cart accessibility. Plans are in the works to expand the Baderman Island Oasis Spa. The modest 50 acres site is being expanded by an additional 25 acres with additional facilities as well. These expanded facilities will include more private rooms...

Case

...his decision based on the majority of the customers needs. It has been determined that the largest volume of business comes from the tobacco farmers. Their needs include a package system that is easy to handle and small enough to handle yet larger enough to treat at least an acre. Previous liquid calculations for farmers were based on the gallon, and 4-8 qts depending on the application. Keeping the new package at the same rate of coverage would allow for an easy conversion. The most the soluble bag can hold is 2.5 lbs, 2. The size of the water-soluble package should cater to a majority of the customers needs. If the new water-soluble package were made to hold 2.5 lbs of material and 1.5 lbs being the active ingredient, it would cover 60% of what a previous gallon did. This would be ideal for a majority of the tobacco farmer customer base, as they would not have to purchase extra with the packages being smaller. 3. The issue with the amount of bags in the over pack bag is storage for whatever is not used that season. If the farmer stores the over pack bag properly there will be no waste into the following season. If the over pack were sold with 12 bags per that would yield 8 acres of treatment per over pack. 30 lbs of dry product yields 18 lbs of a.i.. This figure would allow for an easy conversion for farmers and falls in the middle of the usage for the consumer majority. 4.

Weight of a Leaf

...I propose that the total mass of all leaves that fall off of trees within the United States during a typical fall is 750 billion pounds. In order to answer this question, I considered the trees by my own house. The tree in my backyard is a large oak tree. Rather than attempt to approximate the number of leaves on the tree and the mass of one leaf, I considered how much a 13 gallon bag weighs when it is filled with leaves that have fallen off the tree. After raking the leaves, I do my best to fit as many leaves as possible into the bag, which means the leaves often crumble as I keep putting in more and more leaves. From my experience last fall, the bag weighs about 5 pounds. However, my estimate of the bag’s weight is based on perception; I know for certain that the bag is neither as light as two or three pounds nor as heavy as nine or ten pounds. Therefore, my best estimate of the weight of the bag is 5 pounds. Furthermore, when raking the leaves, I usually fill up three bags (I rake the leaves only once). As such, in one fall season, I collect about 15 pounds of leaves from a single tree. However, because the tree is large and it is often windy, I am certain that many leaves either fly off into the lake, a neighbor’s house, the roof, and/or the front yard. In addition, it seems implausible to assume that I fit all the tree’s leaves into three garbage bags. Therefore, I estimate that I am only able to collect about half of all the leaves. With this assumption, I conclude that...

The House on the Lake

...The House on the Lake Teresa Clements ENG 121: English Comp I Instructor: Jennifer Wells September 16, 2013 As we round the corner, all of my senses stood at attention. The smell, the sound, the view, it was almost too much to take in at once. It was a place I knew all too well. The air was thick with the aroma of fish, bait and coconut suntan oil. The sound of ducks quacking filled my ears. The view, oh, the view was heavenly. The sun glistened on the water as if to say, “Welcome back.” It was a place where memories were made and where I spent every summer as a child all the way up to adulthood. It was….the house on the lake. It was a pale green (almost a hospital green), two-story house sitting on an acre of land. Pecan and pine trees fill the yard. Off to the right was a small, rickety shed filled with fishing poles and tackle. The door squeaked when you opened it and inside it smelled of bait. Beside it was another shed, a bit bigger yet still rickety, with life jackets and every kind of blow-up float you could have imagined. The lake was approximately 50 feet from the house and had a 20 foot u-shaped pier with round, metal railings. Sitting on the ground beside the pier was a small, metal, two-person boat with no trolling motor and two wooden oars, which we used often for fishing. A few feet in front of the pier was what I like to call a “gutting station.” It consisted of a 4’ X 5’ table with a built-in sink for skinning and gutting fish and it smelled...

Our Obsession with Green Lawns

...Our Obsession with Green Lawns Eric Alan Campbell COMM215 October 13, 2014 April Adams Our Obsession with Green Lawns The manicured lawn exploded into popularity in the 1950s. The advent of inexpensive motorized lawn mowers and fertilizing chemicals made lawns a reality for the middle class. America has over 50,000 square miles of grass in cultivation. Now in 2014, California is facing a drought like none seen before in modern times. Crops are withering, lakes are running dry, fires are catching everywhere and yet, around every corner, I see manicured lawns. Vast expanses of nothing but healthy, beautiful, allergy inducing grass. It’s irresponsible, and harmful to our environment and economy. The 2013-14 rainfall season is on track to be the driest in 434 years, according to Lynn Ingram, a paleo-climatologist at UC Berkley. The concern generated by this drought brought together a group of emergency planners and water managers for an event known as the “California Drought Outlook Forum” on February, 20 2014 in Sacramento, California. They determined that the water outlook for the state was similar to the droughts in the 1970s. However, our water obligations have increased greatly in the following decades. Marty Hoering of the NOAA states, “The stress created by the current failed rains is more severe than for similar rainfall deficits 40 years earlier.” The central focus for this concern is the substantial agricultural business that California sustains, from avocados...

Kingdom vs the Country

...Kingdom vs The Country William Shakespeare and Jane Smiley, authors of King Lear and A Thousand Acres, focus on the setting throughout the two novels to help readers interpret the meaning of what they were wanting to get across. They add simple details such as a storm or the location with the help of symbolism, tone, and diction.              Symbolism shows up a lot in literature. It is hidden behind words, to give off hidden meanings that the author implies but doesn’t come out and tell you. On page 76 in A Thousand Acres, a game of monopoly is played. The tokens that the characters choose, represent who they are. The monopoly game shows what is happening at the time, two daughters, Ginny and Rose have property, while Caroline was disowned and did not get any of the 1000 acres. In monopoly, when you land on someone else’s property you owe them money, while they aren’t owing each other money, they are both trying to take all of their father’s property. As a whole, the board game is referencing the farm in Zebulon County. While in King Lear, they don’t play a game that shows who they are. The most notable symbol in King Lear is the storm. After getting in a huge fight with his daughters, and disowning one, Lear is rushing to get away from them in a huge storm that starts with lightning and thunder. During that time Lear had lost his mind, not having enough sleep and then became delusional. After he got back into the right state of mind, the storm went away. The storm symbolizes...

A New Twist

...A Thousand Acres and King Lear: A New Twist           When Jane Smiley wrote A Thousand Acres, she consciously made the story parallel to Shakespeare's King Lear for several reasons. The novel's characters and basic storyline are almost direct parallels to King Lear, but Smiley's dissatisfaction with the traditional interpretation of King Lear is showcased in her modern day version (Berne 236). The story of the Cook family is almost a carbon copy of the saga of Lear's family. The ruler, or father, possesses so much power that he is driven to insanity. Both divide up their kingdoms and land, giving the largest portion to the most "loving" daughter: "In spite of that inner clang, I tried to sound agreeable. 'It's a good idea.' Rose said, 'It's a great idea.' Caroline said, 'I don't know.'" (Smiley 19). In each family, one daughter, the youngest, rebels against her father's wishes and is not given any land. Shortly after giving up his power, the father realizes that he is nothing without it and appears to be slowly becoming insane. In both instances, the father, in a crazed moment, wanders off and puts himself in a life-threatening situation. In the end the youngest daughter comes to the fathers' rescue. With so many basic plot similarities, Smiley manages to convey a new take on an old-fashioned story. At the end of King Lear, Lear traditionally is believed to be a changed man. Smiley doesn't buy into this common belief; therefore Larry Cook remains a static character...
