Joey Joystick is a computer programmer. While he was in his final year of university studies, he worked as an intern with a local electronic games producer, Great Games Pty Ltd. Joey impressed his supervisors with his insightful comments and other input on design work. They were so impressed with his work on one design, Crypt Force, that they gave him part credit for it and paid him a general bonus for it. Crypt Force ultimately won an industry award and proved to be a big seller for the company. After Joey’s university graduation ceremony, he was ushered aside by a Great Games executive who showed him a document and said: “We’re very impressed by your work, Joey. We’d like you to join us permanently— we’re sure you’ll be happy with the deal we can offer you.” The document was a contract of employment which contained the following clauses:

1. The duration of the contract is three (3) years.

9. The employee (Joey) agrees that he will not for the duration of the employment contract or for a period of one year after the conclusion of the employment undertake design activities in Australia for the purposes of the production of electronic games or any other form of entertainment.

The starting salary under the contract was that normally paid to a senior designer, which was a position a new designer would not usually attain until he or she had worked with Great Games for three years. Joey happily signed the agreement. After two years with Great Games, Joey was approached by a film production company, Computer Animated Films Inc (CAN). Joey agreed with CAN that, for a salary five times what he was getting paid by Great Games, he would immediately start work as part of a team producing Cosmic Armada, a feature-length computer animated film. As part of the deal, Joey would also work on a spin-off Cosmic Armada electronic game. Advise Great Games whether it can prevent Joey from working for CAN.

For instance, say that you are looking to interview with the manager at PWC and you are looking for information to try to decide whether and how to pursue a career as an Associate. Write a one page ab theout informational interview on what would be the information the manager at PWC would give you  .

With successful candidates, they should be prepared to deal with ethical issues not only in the workplace as well also answering ethical questions during an interview process.

Would this be true or false and why would you say so?

The appropriate dress attire for an interview should make you stand out, a good way to do this is to pair your suit with a bright colored shirt and matching tie or scarf?

Would this be true or false and why?

The most common mistake someone could do during an interview process is a lie, why would this be a problem with getting hired or declined?

ABC Moving and Storage acquired a new truck for $100,000, paying $20,000 cash and signing a promissory note for the balance. According to the bill of sale, ABC also paid cash for sales tax of 8%, plus registration, tags and delivery fees of $400. The new truck is estimated to have a 5-year economic life and a residual (salvage) value of $8,400. ABC uses straight-line depreciation. Due to delays, the truck was not placed in service until April 1, 2020. ABC has a December 31 fiscal year.

Question

Refer to problem 1. The promissory note that ABC signed to pay for the balance of the truck is dated April 1, 2020. The interest rate is 6% and payment terms are $40,000 plus interest due on March 31, 2021 and the balance due, plus interest, on March 31, 2022. Prepare journal entries required on December 31, 2020, March 31, 2021, December 31, 2021 and March 31, 2022. Show calculations.

A study considered the question, "Are you a registered voter?" Accuracy of response was confirmed by a check of city voting records. Two methods of survey were used: a face-to-face interview and a telephone interview. A random sample of 95 people were asked the voter registration question face to face. Of those sampled, eighty respondents gave accurate answers (as verified by city records). Another random sample of 82 people were asked the same question during a telephone interview. Of those sampled, sixty-nine respondents gave accurate answers. Assume the samples are representative of the general population.

(a) Categorize the problem below according to parameter being estimated, proportion p, mean μ, difference of means μ₁ – μ₂, or difference of proportions p₁ – p₂. Then solve the problem.

p₁ – p₂μ₁ – μ₂    μp

(b) Let p₁ be the population proportion of all people who answer the voter registration question accurately during a face-to-face interview. Let p₂ be the population proportion of all people who answer the question accurately during a telephone interview. Find a 99% confidence interval for p₁ – p₂. (Use 3 decimal places.)

(c) Does the interval contain numbers that are all positive? all negative? mixed? Comment on the meaning of the confidence interval in the context of this problem. At the 99% level, do you detect any difference in the proportion of accurate responses from face-to-face interviews compared with the proportion of accurate responses from telephone interviews?

1. Because the interval contains only positive numbers, we can say that there is a higher proportion of accurate responses in face-to-face interviews.

2. Because the interval contains both positive and negative numbers, we can not say that there is a higher proportion of accurate responses in face-to-face interviews.

3. We can not make any conclusions using this confidence interval.

4. Because the interval contains only negative numbers, we can say that there is a higher proportion of accurate responses in telephone interviews.

Two methods of survey were used: a face-to-face interview and a telephone interview. A random sample of 92 people were asked the voter registration question face to face. Of those sampled, seventy-six respondents gave accurate answers (as verified by city records). Another random sample of 95 people were asked the same question during a telephone interview. Of those sampled, sixty-five respondents gave accurate answers. Assume the samples are representative of the general population.

Tristar Production Company began operations on September 1, 2018. Listed below are a number of transactions that occurred during its first four months of operations. (FV of $1, PV of $1, FVA of $1, PVA of $1, FVAD of $1 and PVAD of $1) (Use appropriate factor(s) from the tables provided.)

1. On September 1, the company acquired five acres of land with a building that will be used as a warehouse. Tristar paid $210,000 in cash for the property. According to appraisals, the land had a fair value of $142,600 and the building had a fair value of $87,400.
2. On September 1, Tristar signed a $51,000 noninterest-bearing note to purchase equipment. The $51,000 payment is due on September 1, 2019. Assume that 9% is a reasonable interest rate.
3. On September 15, a truck was donated to the corporation. Similar trucks were selling for $3,600.
4. On September 18, the company paid its lawyer $3,000 for organizing the corporation.
5. On October 10, Tristar purchased maintenance equipment for cash. The purchase price was $26,000 and $1,050 in freight charges also were paid.
6. On December 2, Tristar acquired various items of office equipment. The company was short of cash and could not pay the $6,600 normal cash price. The supplier agreed to accept 200 shares of the company's nopar common stock in exchange for the equipment. The fair value of the stock is not readily determinable.
7. On December 10, the company acquired a tract of land at a cost of $31,000. It paid $3,000 down and signed a 11% note with both principal and interest due in one year. Eleven percent is an appropriate rate of interest for this note.

According to a study published by a university, approximately two thirds of the 20 million people who consume Valium in the US are women. Suppose a doctor who specializes in anxiety problems and muscle spasms always prescribes Valium for his patients. Suppose further that the chance that the doctor will prescribe a female patient is 2/3.

a) Find the probability that the fifth prescription for Valium given by a doctor is the first Valium prescription for a woman.

b) What is the probability that the doctor will see five patients until three women receive the Valium prescription?
