Can U Buy Wavess With A Credit Card: The Wealth Program – The Affluence Network
Thank you so much for coming to Affluence Network in your search for "Can U Buy Wavess With A Credit Card" online. Lots of people would rather use a currency deflation, especially people who desire to save. Despite the criticism and skepticism, a cryptocurrency coin may be better suited for some applications than others. Financial seclusion, for instance, is excellent for political activists, but more debatable as it pertains to political campaign financing. We need a steady cryptocurrency for use in commerce; should you be living pay check to pay check, it would take place as part of your riches, with the rest reserved for other currencies. Ethereum is an incredible cryptocurrency platform, however, if growth is too quickly, there may be some problems. If the platform is adopted immediately, Ethereum requests could rise dramatically, and at a rate that exceeds the rate with which the miners can create new coins. Under a situation like this, the whole stage of Ethereum could become destabilized because of the increasing costs of running distributed applications. In turn, this could dampen interest Ethereum stage and ether. Uncertainty of demand for ether can lead to a negative change in the economic parameters of an Ethereum based company that could lead to company being unable to continue to operate or to cease operation. The physical Internet backbone that carries information between different nodes of the network is currently the work of several firms called Internet service providers (ISPs), including firms that provide long-distance pipelines, occasionally at the international level, regional local conduit, which ultimately links in families and businesses. The physical connection to the Internet can only occur through one of these ISPs, players like degree 3, Cogent, and IBM AT&T. Each ISP operates its own network. Internet service providers Exchange IXPs, owned or private businesses, and occasionally by Authorities, make for each of these networks to be interconnected or to transfer messages across the network. Many ISPs have agreements with providers of physical Internet backbone providers to offer Internet service over their networks for "last mile"-consumers and companies who need to get Internet connectivity. Internet protocols, followed by everyone in the network causes it to be possible for the info to flow without interruption, in the appropriate area at the perfect time.
While none of these organizations "possesses" the Internet together these businesses decide how it functions, and established rules and standards that everyone stays. Contracts and legal framework that underlies all that's happening to ascertain how things work and what happens if something bad happens. To get a domain name, for example, one needs permission from a Registrar, which has a contract with ICANN. To connect to the Internet, your ISP must be physical contracts with providers of Internet backbone services, and suppliers have contracts with IXPs from the Internet backbone to attach to and with her. Concern over security dilemmas? A working group is formed to work with the issue and the alternative developed and deployed is in the interest of all parties. If the Internet is down, you might have someone to call to get it repaired. If the difficulty is from your ISP, they in turn have contracts in place and service level agreements, which regulate the way in which these problems are solved.
The advantage of cryptocurrency is that it uses blockchain technology. The network of nodes the make up the blockchain isn't regulated by any centered business. No one can tell the miners to upgrade, speed up, slow down, stop or do anything. And that's something that as a committed advocate badge of honour, and is identical to the way the Internet functions. But as you understand now, public Internet governance, normalities and rules that regulate how it works current inherent difficulties to the user. Blockchain technology has none of that. For most users of cryptocurrencies it is not crucial to understand how the procedure works in and of itself, but it is simply crucial that you understand that there's a process of mining to create virtual money. Unlike monies as we understand them now where Authorities and banks can only select to print endless numbers (I am not saying they are doing thus, only one point), cryptocurrencies to be operated by users using a mining software, which solves the complex algorithms to release blocks of monies that can enter into circulation. You've probably seen this often times where you usually spread the nice word about crypto. "It is not unpredictable? What happens if the price failures? " So far, several POS devices delivers free transformation of fiat, improving some issue, but before volatility cryptocurrencies is addressed, most of the people is likely to be resistant to keep any. We must find a method to fight the volatility that is inherent in cryptocurrencies.
Can U Buy Wavess With A Credit Card: You Now Have the Power: The Affluence Network
The beauty of the cryptocurrencies is that fraud was proved an impossibility: because of the nature of the protocol in which it's transacted. All purchases on a crypto currency blockchain are irreversible. After youare paid, you get paid. This is not something short term where your visitors may challenge or need a concessions, or employ unethical sleight of palm. Used, many dealers will be wise to make use of a payment processor, because of the irreversible nature of crypto currency transactions, you must make sure that protection is difficult. With any kind of crypto currency whether a bitcoin, ether, litecoin, or the numerous different altcoins, thieves and hackers might get access to your private secrets and therefore take your cash. Sadly, you almost certainly can never have it back. It is vitally important for you yourself to embrace some great safe and sound procedures when dealing with any cryptocurrency. Doing so will guard you from all of these negative functions. Here is the trendiest thing about cryptocurrencies; they usually do not physically exist everywhere, not even on a hard drive. When you take a look at a specific address for a wallet containing a cryptocurrency, there is absolutely no digital information held in it, like in exactly the same manner that the bank could hold dollars in a bank account. It is simply a representation of value, but there is absolutely no actual palpable kind of that value. Cryptocurrency wallets may not be seized or frozen or audited by the banks and the law. They would not have spending limits and withdrawal limitations imposed on them. No one but the person who owns the crypto wallet can decide how their riches will be managed. Cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin, LiteCoin, Ether, The Affluence Network, and many others happen to be designed as a non-fiat currency. In other words, its backers assert that there's "actual" worth, even through there is absolutely no physical representation of that worth. The worth grows due to computing power, that's, is the lone way to create new coins distributed by allocating CPU power via computer programs called miners. Miners create a block after a time period which is worth an ever decreasing amount of currency or some sort of reward to be able to ensure the shortage. Each coin contains many smaller units. For Bitcoin, each unit is called a satoshi. Once created, each Bitcoin (or 100 million satoshis) exists as a cipher, which is part of the block that gave rise to it. The blockchain is where the public record of all transactions resides.
The fact that there's little evidence of any growth in using virtual money as a currency may be the reason why there are minimal efforts to regulate it. The reason behind this could be just that the market is too little for cryptocurrencies to warrant any regulatory attempt. It is also possible that the regulators just do not understand the technology and its implications, anticipating any developments to act. In case of the fully-functioning cryptocurrency, it might even be traded like a thing. Promoters of cryptocurrencies announce this sort of virtual money is not managed by a key bank system and is not therefore subject to the whims of its inflation. Since there are a restricted number of items, this cashis worth is dependant on market forces, enabling owners to deal over cryptocurrency deals. When searching online forCan U Buy Wavess With A Credit Card, there are many things to think of.

It is certainly possible, but it must have the ability to comprehend opportunities irrespective of marketplace conduct. The market moves in relation to price BTC … So even if it's in a BTC tendency down can make money by purchasing the altcoins which are altcoin oversold trading ratios-BTC. Sure, your purchasing power in DOLLARS may be lower, but as long as your purchasing power in BTC is still growing you will be ok.

Additionally, there are transaction fees which make online payment expensive. Entrepreneurs in the cryptocurrency movement may be wise to research possibilities for making huge ammonts of cash with various forms of internet marketing.There could be a rich reward for anyone daring enough to brave the cryptocurrency markets.Bitcoin design provides an instructive example of how one might make a lot of money in the cryptocurrency markets. Bitcoin is an outstanding intellectual and technical accomplishment, and it has created an avalanche of editorial coverage and venture capital investment opportunities. But not many people understand that and miss out on very successful business models made available because of the growing use of blockchain technology. It should be hard to get more little increases (~ 10%) throughout the day. Study the way to read these Candlestick charts! And I found these two rules to be accurate: having modest increases is more rewarding than attempting to fight up to the summit. Most day traders follow Candlestick, so it is better to take a look at books than wait for order confirmation when you think the price is going down. Secondly, there's more volatility and reward in currencies that have not made it to the profitability of sites like Coinwarz. You may run a search on the web. First learn, then models, indicators and most importantly practice looking at old charts and pick out trends. When you commence to keep a trading diary screenshots and your comment/forecast. Precisely what is the best way to get confident with charts IMHO. Oh certainly, and don't fool yourself into thinking that you acquire the uptrend will never go lower! Always will go down!

As one of the earliest forms of making money is in money financing, it's a fact that you could do this with cryptocurrency. Most of the financing sites now focus on business of Bitcoin, but I am certain there will be one or two who will already have arrived in/nearby that may give other monies. Some sites are now out: valves: these are sites where you fill in a captcha after a specific time period and are rewarded with a little amount of coins for that faucet. You can visit the www.cryptofunds.co site to locate some lists of tap into the money of your choice in the Knowledge Base section. Some sites of tap comprise: Unlike forex, stocks and options, etc., altcoin markets have very different dynamics. The new ones are constantly popping up which means they don't have lots of market data and historical view for you to backtest against. Most altcoins have rather inferior liquidity too. The best way to come up with a decent strategy and analyze it in the light of these issues? Only a fraction of bitcoins issued so far can be found on the exchange markets. Bitcoin markets are competitive, which means the price a bitcoin will rise or fall depending on supply and demand. A lot of people hoard them for long term savings and investment. This limits the quantity of bitcoins that are truly circulating in the exchanges. Additionally, new bitcoins will continue to be issued for decades to come. So, even the most diligent buyer could not buy all present bitcoins. This situation is not to imply that markets usually are not exposed to price exploitation, yet there is no requirement for large sums of cash to move market prices up or down. The smallest occasions on earth economy can affect the price of Bitcoin, This can make Bitcoin and any other cryptocurrency explosive. Bitcoin is the primary cryptocurrency of the web: a digital money standard by which all other coins are compared to. Cryptocurrencies are distributed, international, and decentralized. Unlike traditional fiat currencies, there is no authorities, banks, or some other regulatory agencies. As such, it is more resistant to outrageous inflation and tainted banks. The benefits of using cryptocurrencies as your method of transacting cash online outweigh the protection and privacy hazards. Security and seclusion can readily be reached by just being smart, and following some basic guidelines. You wouldn't place your entire bank ledger online for the word to see, but my nature, your cryptocurrency ledger is publicized. This can be fixed by removing any identity of possession from your wallets and thereby keeping you anonymous.

I ended up taking a little holiday blogging break, but I should be posting more often since my schedule is getting back to a "more" (if there is such a thing) regular routine.
Since tomorrow is New Year's Eve, I thought I would do a little recap of 2010. This year has been one of the hardest and most challenging years of my life so far (I am really looking forward to 2011). I have learned so much about myself and have changed in so many ways. This year has been filled with new jobs, watching my son grow and really start developing a great personality, starting my own business (which is one of my main goals for the next year), a ton of sewing, going through a divorce, turning 27, and just a lot of unexpected changes overall.
Those are some of my favorite projects from this past year. I do have some big things planned for blog along with a few personal challenges and working on crossing all the things off my 27 things to do be I turn 28 list. I feel like 2011 is going to be filled with lots of new opportunities, experiences, projects, goals and lots of sewing! Are you making big plans for 2011?

Becoming nobody from being somebody.
I want to be somebody important. Many people are stuck here.
Even teachers get stuck here. If you don't give them a proper seat, it pushes their button. No matter that they might have won everything else over, but they will become attached to the seat, to their position. This is getting stuck in being somebody.
What difference does it make if I sit on the sofa or if I sit there out on the carpet? It does not make any difference! I remain what I am.
You get stuck being somebody. Either: I am too special or I am hopeless or I am nasty, I am useless or I am no good. This is also being somebody. Therefore being nobody is the thing. Going from being somebody to being nobody is the first step.

Keep your tissues around on Thursday nights.
Both for when you cry (in every episode!) with a second season of "This is Us'" and hopefully with tears of joy at the "Will & Grace" reboot.
NBC is bringing back the Thursday night's "must-see TV." The network is trying for a bit of the ol' magic it had when "Seinfeld" and "ER" was part of the must-see line-up.
NBC's Thursday night TV line-up
- 8 p.m. reboot of "Will & Grace"
- 8:30 p.m.: "Great News," the Tina Fey produced show that USA Today reviewer Robert Bianco called a "newsroom version of 30 Rock."
- 9 p.m. "This is Us," which previously aired on Tuesdays.
- 10 p.m. "Law & Order True Crime: The Menendez Murders
Sure, many of us now simply record our favorite shows to watch later. Like when the kids are in bed. Or we wait and stream them. But this blend of shows we love or hope to love make us long for the days when on Friday we couldn't wait to gab with friends and co-workers about Thursday night TV.
Check out the first glimpse of what "Will & Grace" has in store for us below.

This is a must do. We had a wonderful tour guide - funny and informative! Experiencing what you have likely seen in the movies first hand is unreal. Tuscany is beautiful not to mention the wine of course. They gave us plenty to sample from and the last stop provided food as well at the sit down tasting.
Great experience, met great people. Really enjoyed the ride, the tutorial and every drop! The wineries are really great. The knowledge and personality of the proprietors were supurb.
I could not recommend this tour enough! Stefano took us to two absolutely beautiful wineries and also provided us with great commentary on our way there. The wineries themselves provided very generous tastings and also delicious olive oil tastings with bread cheese and salami. This was definitely a major highlight of our Italy trip, do not hesitate to book this trip it's worth every penny.
While our visit to Florence we choose this tour to see the countryside and enjoy the wine tasting experience. It did not disappoint. The two wineries were wonderful and exceeded our expectation. The one small issue was finding the starting point and the bus. The directions could be clearer. If you are lookin* for a wonderful 1/2 day tour away from the city and enjoy wine...this tour is for you.
Beautiful countryside, comfortable van, good explanations regarding the making of the wine, nice tastings!
Awesome experience. Guiseppi and his driver sorry, can't remember his name were outstanding. The ride was quick and fun. The locations were beautiful, and the tour guides at the vineyards were fantastic. Excellent trip and value all the way around. I would do it again in a heartbeat.
We absolutely loved the wine experience and highly recommend it. The group we had was great; our host (Guiseppe) was solid and we had an amazing time at both wineries. The grounds were absolutely amazing; the wine was wonderful and our guides at each location were both knowledgeable and personable. We would definitely recommend.
This was one of the best experiences during our 4 day stay in Florence. Quick bus ride with a small group - 10-15 people (mostly English speaking). We learned a lot, frank even more (7 glasses ?), tour guide was awesome and funny. I would bring a snack as the food is light and the glasses are heavy. I also would buy some of their wine / olive oil / balsamic to bring home. 5:5 review
Freddy was our guide and you can tell he really loves Florence and the surrounding history. We had a really nice 50ish minute drive from the departure point. However it seemed to go by quickly because of the facts and stories our guide shared during that drive. The first winery was beautiful, plenty of time for conversations with other tour participants and photos of course. Second winery actually included more in-depth tour of the barrels, and large metal vats used for aging. The properties both are STUNNING and I personally enjoyed the Florence countryside more so than the city, just my experience! If you like wine and different varieties of it, I have a hard time picturing you not enjoying the tour. We also ate nice cheeses and meats at location 2. Location 1 was just bread and balsamic vinegar. Because of the amount of wine you are set up to have, if you feel that you would need it I would recommend eating prior to the tour! Enjoy.
A perfect way to immerse oneself with Tuscan culture. A must-visit for wine lovers regardless of race. The tour guide's personal approach plus a hefty serving of wine ended with a party inside the coach. Our driver who resembles Rocky Balboa made sure that we had a safe travel back to the station.

written off against shareholders' equity at the completion of the acquisition. Goodwill
is amortized on a straight-line basis over a maximum of forty years in the U.S., п¬Ѓve years
in Japan, and four years in Germany. In the U.K., goodwill is reported as an asset, but
does not have to be amortized at all if it has not been impaired.
The expected value and economic life of goodwill depend on a number of factors. First,
they depend on the ability of acquiring management to price the intangible assets of the
target appropriately, avoiding overpayment. Second, they depend on acquiring manage-
ment's ability to integrate the target firm without destroying intangible assets that it pur-
chased, such as superior management, existing customers, or key employees. Finally, the
value and expected life depend on the strategy and strategy implementation capabilities of
the new firm, which can either leverage or destroy the target firm's intangible assets.2
To illustrate, Cooper Industries, a diversified company operating in the electrical,
hand-tool, automotive, and energy equipment businesses, acquired Cameron Iron
Works, a manufacturer of oil and gas machinery, for $967 million in 1989.3 Cooper's
strategy was to acquire manufacturing businesses, strengthen their management, and im-
prove their reporting and control systems. However, several problems arose with this
strategy and its implementation at Cameron. First, Cooper's expertise was in under-
standing manufacturing. Its management mistakenly believed that this was critical to
Cameron's success. Only after the acquisition did it learn that service and marketing
were the key performance drivers for Cameron. Second, in implementing the acquisi-
tion, Cooper became preoccupied with control, making it difficult for management at
Cameron to run its business. As a result, Cooper took $440 to $750 million of write-
downs related to the acquisition, and it divested Cameron in 1994.
Given management's self-interest in communicating to investors that an acquisition
is successful and the challenge in estimating future benefits from outlays for goodwill,
there is a risk that managers making value-decreasing acquisitions will fail to recognize
any deterioration in goodwill values on a timely basis. Equally, for acquisitions that do
create shareholder value, accounting rules for goodwill amortization often do a poor job
of reflecting merger benefits, since many countries require firms to amortize goodwill
even if the asset has not declined in value.
EXAMPLE: RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT OUTLAYS. Research and develop-
ment outlays are intended to create value for the п¬Ѓrm in future periods. This suggests that
they should be expensed in the same periods as when the new product revenues they are
expected to generate are recognized. However, research and development (R&D) is a
highly uncertain process. There are typically many failed projects for every successful
one. As a result, accounting rules in most countries require R&D outlays to be expensed
as incurred (see SFAS 2).4
In the U.S., there are several exceptions to the rule requiring expensing of R&D. First,
completed R&D that is purchased from another company is capitalized and amortized
over its useful life (see SFAS 68). Second, software development costs are capitalized
upon completion of a detailed program design plan or working model. Amortization of
254 Expense Analysis
Expense Analysis
this asset for a particular year is proportional to the project revenues generated during
that year relative to total expected project revenues (see SFAS 86).5
The rules on capitalizing and amortizing outlays for completed R&D and software de-
velopment provide management with opportunity to exercise judgment in п¬Ѓnancial re-
porting. Management can potentially use this judgment to match R&D costs with
revenues they generate. Alternatively, it can misuse this judgment to accelerate or defer
earnings, either in their assessments of the types of outlays that satisfy the criteria for
capitalization and amortization against future revenues, or in the estimates of future lives
of any outlays to be amortized.6
The diversity in reporting practice on these issues is likely to raise questions for users
of п¬Ѓnancial reports. For example, Microsoft, the most successful software developer in
the world, expenses all software development outlays immediately. In contrast, People-
soft, one of the smaller players in the software industry, capitalizes its development costs
and amortizes them over three years. Is Microsoft being conservative in its reporting? Is
Peoplesoft reporting aggressively? Or do the two п¬Ѓrms have very different models of
developing software consistent with their reporting differences?
Analysis is also important for п¬Ѓrms whose managers have no opportunity to exercise
judgment in reporting on R&D outlays. For example, п¬Ѓrms in the R&D-intensive pharma-
ceutical industry are required to expense all R&D outlays immediately. For these п¬Ѓrms,
п¬Ѓnancial reporting does not help investors discriminate between п¬Ѓrms with the most and
the least effective research labs, a critical issue for evaluating the performance of man-
agement and for valuation. As a result, analysts research other sources of information on
firms' research capabilities and successes, such as patent filings and FDA approvals.
EXAMPLE: ADVERTISING OUTLAYS. Advertising outlays create an even greater
challenge for п¬Ѓnancial reporting than R&D. As discussed in Chapter 4, companies such
as Coca-Cola have been able to create long-term sustainable economic rents from adver-
tising their products. However, it is often unclear what link, if any, exists between adver-
tising outlays in a period and future revenues.
To illustrate the difficulty in linking a firm's advertising program to long-term reve-
nues, consider Microsoft's $220 million campaign to launch Windows 95. The role of
this campaign in the success of the new product is difficult to estimate. Because of the
company's dominant position in its market, there was widespread public interest in the
product well before the п¬Ѓrst paid advertisement for Windows appeared on August 24,
1995. The Wall Street Journal estimated that 3,000 headlines, 6,852 stories, and over 3
million words had been dedicated to Windows 95 during the period July 1 to August 24,
1995. In addition, during the launch week, Microsoft engaged in a series of publicity
stunts to promote the new product. A 600-foot Windows 95 banner was hung from the
CN Tower in Toronto, the Empire State Building was lit in the colors of the Windows 95
logo, and the company paid The London Times to distribute an entire day's run of 1.5
million copies free. What was the role of these promotions relative to the $220 million
advertising campaign in making the product a market success?
Expense Analysis
7-7 Part 2 Business Analysis and Valuation Tools
As shown by the Windows 95 example, the long-term effectiveness of a firm's ad-
vertising is typically difficult to assess because so many other factors aside from the
company's advertising strategy are likely to influence its campaign effectiveness. Inter-
vening factors include the firm's own pricing and promotion decisions, the price, promo-
tion, and advertising responses of competitors, the market position of the п¬Ѓrm relative to
its competitors, and the stage of the product market (growing, mature, or declining).
Given the difficulty in quantifying these effects and isolating any cause-and-effect rela-
tion between advertising outlays and future revenues, accounting standards typically
require advertising expenditures to be expensed as incurred.
However, for several industries it is possible to link some forms of marketing outlays
and future revenues. For example, life insurance companies pay commissions to com-
pensate sales representatives for signing up new policyholders. The benefits of these
contracts can be short-term (for property-casualty insurers) or long-term (for life insur-
ers). As a result, SFAS 60 and SFAS 120 require insurers to capitalize these outlays and
to expense them over the life of the contract.
Direct response advertising costs are another type of advertising outlay where it may
be possible to establish a link between outlays and future revenues. Credit card compa-
nies, telephone companies, Internet service providers, satellite television providers,
magazine publishers, and membership service companies spend heavily on direct re-
sponse advertising to attract new members. Many of these п¬Ѓrms can document the sign-
up rates from their programs, as well as the rates of membership renewal. Indeed, many
of these п¬Ѓrms use market research to target customers that are most likely to sign up and
subsequently renew their memberships. Consequently, accounting standards (see State-
ment of Practice 93-7) permit п¬Ѓrms to capitalize these types of costs provided they can
document that (a) customers have responded directly to the advertising campaign, and
(b) future benefits from the expenditures are reasonably certain. The first requirement
can be satisfied by use of coded order forms, coupons, or response cards. The second can
be satisfied by reference to historical data on membership renewals. Of course, there are
always risks that future renewals will not follow historical patterns, perhaps due to in-
creased competition or to customer disappointments over service.
Key Analysis Questions
The above discussion indicates that management sometimes has an opportunity to
use judgment to expense resources that provide value over multiple periods. In addi-
tion, accounting standards for reporting on some of these resources require all п¬Ѓrms
to immediately expense outlays. This makes it more difficult for analysts to distin-
guish firms that are able to create multi-period benefits from these outlays from firms
that are not. As a result, the following questions are likely to be useful for analysts:
• What assumptions are made by management to amortize resources with
multi-period benefits? Are these assumptions consistent with the firm's busi-
256 Expense Analysis
Expense Analysis
ness strategy? How do they compare to assumptions made by other firms in
the industry? If there are significant differences, what factors can explain
these differences?
• Has the firm changed its amortization assumptions over time? What factors
explain these decisions? For example, is it following a different business or
operating model?
• Is there evidence that management has consistently over- or underamortized
long-lived assets? Such evidence includes systematic reporting of gains (or
losses) on asset sales, or persistent asset write-downs.
• What is the value and reliability of benefits expected from capitalized current
period outlays? These are affected by the firm's position in its product market
and the sustainability of that position. For example, if the firm records signif-
icant goodwill as a result of an acquisition, is there an economic basis for this
asset, or did the acquirer overpay for the target?
• If accounting standards require outlays for intangible resources to be ex-
pensed as incurred, analysts may want to discount the effect of these expens-
es on earnings, particularly for firms that appear to be capable of creating
long-term value from these outlays. This requires an analysis of the expected
benefits and associated risks from these outlays. Does the firm have a track
record of creating new products through its R&D labs, or brand names
through its marketing campaigns?
Challenge Two: The Timing and Amount
of Payment for Resources Is Uncertain
Some transactions require п¬Ѓrms to make long-term commitments for resources that have
no long-term benefits to the firm. For example, many firms offer pension and other post-
retirement benefits to their employees. Firms also incur long-term obligations to pay for
the cleanup of environmental hazards for which they are responsible. These obligations
represent expenses, since they provide no future benefit to the firm. Any benefits have
already been realized in either the current period or prior periods. However, they are
challenging to record, since the timing and amount of the obligations is frequently
How should these types of commitments be recorded? Should an expense be esti-
mated for the expected obligation or for the present value of the expected obligation? If
so, how should errors in management's forecasts of these obligations and interest rates
be reflected? Alternatively, should recording the expense be delayed until the timing and
amount of the obligation can be determined more accurately?
To illustrate the challenges associated with recording expenses for long-term obliga-
tions with no future benefits, we discuss the accounting for pension and post-retirement
benefits and environmental obligations.
Expense Analysis
7-9 Part 2 Business Analysis and Valuation Tools
EXAMPLE: PENSIONS AND OTHER POST-RETIREMENT BENEFITS. Many п¬Ѓrms
offer employees a pension plan and other forms of post-retirement benefits. Typically,
employees are entitled to receive some form of benefit after working for a firm for a min-
imum period. Thereafter, the magnitude of the benefits typically increases for each year
the employee works.
As discussed in Chapter 5, companies are required to estimate liabilities for the ex-
pected future obligations under pension and post-retirement plans. This is a significant
challenge for recording the liability associated with defined benefit plans, where an em-
ployer guarantees certain future levels of benefits for employees.7 For these types of
plans, managers have to forecast current employees' future working lives with the firm,
their life expectancies, retirement ages, and the expected cost of the future benefits.
These data are used to estimate the present value of the expected future benefits for all
current employees. This value is amortized as a benefit expense by using a straight-line
method over the employees' expected working lives with the firm. In addition, the ben-
efit expense reflects increases in the value of the obligation as employees get closer to
receiving benefits (an interest effect) and decreases as any assets invested by the com-
pany to fund the benefit plan increase in value. Expenses are also adjusted as manage-
ment revises its forecasts of future plan commitments. Of course, under this approach,
management has considerable judgment in estimating the annual benefit cost.
Estimating the cost of obligations provided under such plans is challenging for man-
agement. However, it does ensure that the risks associated with the plans, such as uncer-
tainty over employee turnover, medical cost inflation, and employee life expectancy, are
reflected in the financial statements. It is likely to be important for management and for
external users of п¬Ѓnancial statements to understand the implications of these risks and
the value of the benefits provided to employees.
EXAMPLE: ENVIRONMENTAL COSTS. As discussed in Chapter 5, the Comprehen-
sive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA) empowers
the federal government to make those responsible for the improper disposal of hazard-
ous waste at the nation's worst hazardous waste sites bear the cost of cleanup. The chal-
lenges in measuring environmental liabilities, namely the difficulties in estimating the
cost of the cleanup and in assessing how the cleanup cost will be shared by the parties
associated with the site, also make it challenging to record an expense. How should the
expense be recorded? For example, should it be recorded as a one-time charge at the
same time as the liability is recorded, or should it be spread out over the cleanup period?
Should it be shown as an extraordinary item, as a non-operating item, or as a part of nor-
mal operations?
As noted in Chapter 5, a liability must be recorded when much of the uncertainty over
the cost of cleanup and the firm's responsibility have been resolved (see SFAS 5 and
Statement of Position 96-1). The Statement of Position also requires п¬Ѓrms to recognize
the full cost of cleanup as an operating expense when the liability is recorded. Cleanup
costs cannot be considered extraordinary or included in the "other income and expense"

BROWNLOW Medal favourites Patrick Dangerfield and Dustin Martin are set to go head-to-head on Sunday in a match-up which might decide who takes home the game's highest individual honour at the end of the season.
Both players are averaging more than 30 disposals after standout seasons and, if Tigers coach Damien Hardwick gets his way, the match-winners will face-off in a mouth-watering showdown at the MCG.
Hardwick said he wouldn't send a tagger to Dangerfield unless the star Cat got off the leash.
Get all the match day information for Sunday afternoon's match against Geelong at the MCG
"We'll let those guys go head-to-head at the start and then we might look at something if Danger gets out of control," Hardwick said on Thursday.
"But that's probably happened with every game with Danger, hasn't it?
"He's such a quality competitor, he's one of those guys who is very hard to tag, he wins contested ball inside the contest and then also post-clearance as well."
After a pressure-relieving win over Collingwood last Friday night, the Tigers have the carrot dangling to end an 11-game losing streak against top-four contenders Geelong.
"We've been close the last four or five times; it's been a couple of goals that have decided it, but Geelong have been an outstanding outfit for a long period of time and we're looking forward to giving our players that challenge," Hardwick said.
The Tigers will once again be without Brett Deledio, who has been put on ice for the remainder of the year with a calf complaint.
But Hardwick isn't concerned about the injury-prone veteran's long-term durability after a run of soft-tissue problems limited him to 11 games this year – his fewest in 12 seasons at Punt Rd.
"We just had to weigh-up the risk versus reward," Hardwick said of playing Deledio again this season.
"Brett's obviously an important player for us and we didn't want to put him in the situation where we put him out with the possibility of being hurt again."
In better news for the Tigers, ruckman Shaun Hampson and crafty small forward Sam Lloyd have re-signed until the end of 2018.
Hampson, who has won the fourth most hit-outs this season, has turned his career around in 2016.
"He's got some areas of his game we think he can improve; rucks generally don't hit their straps until 26 or 27, Shaun's at that age now," Hardwick said.
"He's had a really good season, but we look forward to him improving over the next two years, which is why we gave him that contract extension.
"He's made enormous inroads this year."
The Tigers have some tough selection calls to make this week, with youngster Ben Lennon (23 touches, three goals) and Liam McBean (four goals) impressing at VFL level, and Shane Edwards and Reece Conca possibly returning from injury.
Meanwhile Hardwick hinted small forward Daniel Butler is a chance to debut against the Cats in star forward Jack Riewoldt's 200th game.

Trish Bertuzzi, Patrice Greene, and Kathy Macchi weigh in with a live panel discussion on June 8.
Here's a joke for you: "How do you know two marketers are talking about ABM?" If you muttered "their lips are moving," followed by a groan, then you understand why three women with a combined 30 years of experience executing successful account-based revenue strategies are starting to get fed up!
There is nothing abstract about Trish Bertuzzi, Kathy Macchi or Patrice Greene. These women are known for separating the wheat from the chaff, providing practical examples and working with their clients to achieve concrete, dollars-and-cents results.
I recently sat down with the three of them and discussed a variety of topics, from the "trio of crap" (a crappy process, supported by crappy messaging, which leads to crappy results), to the changing role of women in tech, to the account-based marketing "paralysis" that many organizations are experiencing.
Here are some highlights...
According to Bertuzzi, "Organizations are realizing that they've bored the ever-loving crap out of their buyers with banal messaging and vapid emails so much so that their buyers have put up a wall. It's not always the team itself that is the problem. I'm seeing more that the process and message is the problem." Macchi added, "I think marketers, in a way, are coming full circle by recognizing that technology, reporting, analytics and the ability to scale are important – but none of it really matters if you don't have a resonant message. If your message isn't relevant, it falls on deaf ears. "
Greene mentioned, "When you think about account-based revenue, you need to treat accounts, or groups of accounts, differently. You need to figure out which accounts you're going to go 'all-in' on. You need to consider which resources you're going to pull in, how much you're going to spend, what tactics you are going to use to engage decision-makers, and whether or not there are similarities in those accounts from a segmentation perspective. And you also need to consider whether you're an enterprise, and thus have multiple products and multiple markets. All of those considerations are paralyzing folks."
According to Greene, "A lot of organizations think that they've adopted an account-based marketing strategy because they bought certain technologies like Demandbase or Terminus or they bought Engagio. They're sending cupcakes, right? Therefore, they've a set of target accounts and they're not outbound spraying and praying like they did before. But they're still handling leads over to sales, and that's not really ABM."
Macchi added, "Organizations will take a bunch of accounts, and just then just batch and blast to those accounts. The marketing isn't any different from broad outbound, and they sit back and ask, 'How is this different from what I've been doing?' And the answer is: it isn't."
According to Bertuzzi, "My introduction of the term 'ABR' was very intentional. I wanted to move the conversation away from account-based marketing. We were talking silo city with that term …if all paths don't lead to revenue, it doesn't matter what type of account-based strategy you execute."
Trish Bertuzzi, Kathy Macchi and Patrice Greene will be participating in a live, virtual panel discussion June 8 called "Getting Real about Account-Based Revenue" – they'll share practical tips, stories from the trenches and most importantly, engage in frank discussions about what an organizational commitment to account-based revenue really is.

Senator Dianne Feinstein (D-CA) considers herself a part of the "Resistance." She seeks to delay the confirmation of President Donald Trump's SCOTUS pick, convinced that he's part of the Russian scandal. However, she has a scandal of her own, one that actually exists and has harmed Americans in numerous ways.
Since Donald Trump entered office, the left has not stopped complaining about the so-called "Russian collusion." Citing zero evidence, they claim Trump's campaign worked with Russia to steal the election. This has inspired countless liberal hacks to make the bogus claim that Trump is Putin's puppet.
This nonsense has empowered Democrats to obstruct Trump's MAGA agenda. They refuse to support the president's plan to help Americans. The much-needed tax cuts were not supported by the left. Every appointment, policy, and goal of the Trump administration has been strongly opposed by Democrats. Even his latest Supreme Court pick — Brett Kavanaugh — has been attacked by liberals, despite his sterling record as a judge.
Senator Diane Feinstein worked to "resist" the Trump administration, harping on the same fake story that Trump is working for Russia. But it looks like she has something much bigger to worry about, the fact that she employed an actual Chinese spy.
No, you read that right.
Details Surface About Chinese Spy Who Worked For Sen. Feinstein https://t.co/LZUuGnU1bC
— Kerry Picket (@KerryPicket) August 2, 2018
The column revealed that the Chinese spy was Feinstein's driver who also served as a gofer in her Bay Area office and was a liaison to the Asian-American community.
He even attended Chinese consulate functions for the senator…
Former FBI agent and KPIX 5 security analyst Jeff Harp said he was not surprised.
"Think about Diane Feinstein and what she had access to," said Harp. "One, she had access to the Chinese community here in San Francisco; great amount of political influence. Two, correct me if I'm wrong, Dianne Feinstein still has very close ties to the intelligence committees there in Washington, D.C." [Source: CBS]
So how does someone go from being just a driver to a liaison to the Asian-American community? He even attended important functions on behalf of the senator.
Good job vetting your staff, Feinstein. What did you say about Russia, again?
To make matters worse, when it was found out that this staff member was, in fact, a spy — he was only forced to retire. Apparently, he wasn't arrested or grilled by the FBI. Sure, why would they? He's only an enemy agent who was seeking sensitive information about the U.S. government. Why should he be questioned?
You have to wonder how a senator could be so sloppy. Shouldn't there be strict vetting in place for staff members working for a U.S. lawmaker? Or is Feinstein so negligent about her staff, that she lets any unknown driver become a close confidant?
This stinks to high heaven if you ask me.
@SenFeinstein has Chinese spies on her payroll. 32 Million Americans had their personnel files stolen by China. 😡

So the staffer/driver/gofer was never arrested, never questioned. Just asked to retire? AND we're worried about Russia and some Facebook ads? What the heck?

This one user makes a pretty important point:
Why isn't there a special prosecutor for this spy ? People go crazy about the Russians and here we have Chinese spy infiltrating the senate …
— Gondor Partners (@GondorVau) August 2, 2018
I guess Congress only cares about infiltration when it makes President Trump look bad. And when it's made up.
Real cases of actual spies working within the Senate? Who cares, right?
Once again, we see Democrats are held to a different standard than the rest of us. If you are powerful enough and well-connected enough in DC (and are liberal), you can get away with anything.
After all, Obama abused the DOJ to spy on Trump's campaign. No investigation. Hillary Clinton worked with Russian agents to craft a fake dossier. No investigation. Feinstein employed a Chinese spy would represent her in meetings. No investigation. So where is the real atrocity in our government? It's certainly not in the White House.

What they were looking at was, in fact, an Ekranoplan; a wing in ground effect or WIG craft designed to fly at very high speed a few metres over the top of the sea. It sounds not unlike a hovercraft. But where a hovercraft floats on a skirt of air, the Ekranoplan sits clean above the surface and relies on a well known, if little understood aerodynamic phenomenon called "ground effect"..

wholesale nfl jerseys Here's why it's really easy to accidentally pick up a prostitute: To my knowledge, none of them will ever say, "I'd love a ride, you have a nice car, and by the way if you give me money I'll fellate you." They don't all dress in mini skirts and tank tops (certainly not when it's about to snow, anyway), and they don't introduce themselves with handy names like "Prostitute Jill" and so forth. Which makes sense. Plenty of cops will go undercover, pretend to pick up a prostitute and then end up hauling said prostitute off to jail. wholesale nfl jerseys

text: Joni D. from Characters of Characters, was kind enough to share a classroom theme that I thought to be so wonderful! In her classroom Joni had a different character theme each month. She began with the character, Behavior Bear. During this month she had a poster in the classroom, a story, a puppet, and all sorts of activities that highlighted positive behavior. The next month another character was chosen based on her observation on the students' character traits. The rest of the characters that she chose from were Do'er Duck, Friendship Frog, Respectful Rabbit. Warm-Hearted Walrus, Responsible Rabbit, Healthy Hippo, and Manners Monkey. These great characters, ideas, videos, and more can be found at www.charactersofcharacter.org . Thanks Joni!

If you 't think you can wait the two weeks until GKR is back our lives, we're here for you.If they have any questions, I'm here to help them and continue to move on.People 't use the word 'great' a lot this game, but he's a great hitter.There definitely some differences, some things that stayed the same.Although each funding agency have its own requirements, there are several elements of a proposal that are fairly standard, and they often come the following order: Format the proposal that it is easy to read.He's inspirational.

This is more suitable for Eat Arkansas, but I'm posting a photo of the batch of yeast rolls I just turned out both to show off (yes, that missing one was nearly perfect) and to let my wife and daughter know that I have completed my assignment for one of the dishes I'm expected to cart up to New York for family Thanksgiving next week. I hope to resist eating more before I freeze them. If you want to try it out yourself, use the no-knead roll recipe in "Joy of Cooking." My book opens automatically to that page, so encrusted is it with flour, butter, etc. I learned additionally, from Times' art director Mike Spain's mother, that it does not hurt to drown the risen dough in melted butter before you make them out. She made rolls in Little Rock school cafeterias, so you know she knew what she was talking about.

The Risk for Children When Parents Abuse Substances
Problems for children related to substance abuse can begin even before a child is born. Women who abuse drugs or alcohol find it difficult to quit just because they become pregnant. In fact, the discomfort and stress of pregnancy may intensify their substance use. As a result, these mothers are far less likely to seek prenatal care.
Mothers who drink or use drugs tend to have babies with lower birth weights, and complications including premature birth. When the mother is drinking heavily a condition known as Fetal Alcohol Syndrome (FAS) is possible. Children with FAS are born with smaller heads and eyes, central nervous system impairment, lower IQs or malformed limbs.
Babies of moms who use drugs also tend to be smaller, premature or at greater risk for miscarriage. These children grow up to have trouble learning and managing emotions.
When mom and dad are distracted with their substance habit, children get neglected. Neglected kids lack trust and therefore find it hard to obey adult-imposed rules. And because these children often fail to form normal adult-child attachments early on, a host of social issues then ensue. These kids have poor social cueing, have more trouble empathizing, are more apt to be depressed, struggle more with self-control and wind up feeling cut off from society.
It should not be surprising then to learn that children of substance abusing parents frequently wind up abusing themselves. This is partly due to parental modeling. Kids who witness drug or alcohol use tend to repeat the behaviors they see modeled. This is also partly due to coping. These children have unstable environments and unstable emotional lives, and substances provide a quick and easy remedy to momentary pain. This is particularly true for children who are physically or sexually abused while a parent is out-of-control due to a substance.
