Feedback

1. Set up two columns: one for the company cash account section and the other for the bank balance section. Determine the effect of the data on each column. Recall that when you are finished, the adjusted balances in the bank and company sections of the reconciliation must be equal. If not, an item has been overlooked or treated incorrectly.

2. Illustrate the effects on the accounts and financial statements of the bank reconciliation. If no account or activity is affected, select "No effect" from the dropdown and leave the corresponding number entry box blank. Enter account decreases and cash outflows as negative amounts.

Windows PowerShell

Log in as Tawny Madison and create a directory called c:\users\tmadison\research and within it, another directory called departmental meeting minutes. Set the permissions on the departmental meeting minutes directory so that the user tmadison can read and modify it, any other members of the research group can only read it, and no one else can do anything with it. (If someone is listed as belonging to both the research group and another group, they should still be allowed to read it.)

This is what I have so far:

1) New-Item -Path “c:\users\tmadison\research\departmental meeting minutes” -ItemType “directory”

2) Icacls “c:\users\tmadison\research\departmental meeting minutes” /grant “user”:r

I used New-Item to create the directory but I'm having trouble setting up permissions for the directory "departmental meeting minutes".

These are the permissions I need to set up using PowerShell.

"tmadison" Owner = Read & Modify

"research" Group = Read Only

Everyone else = Cannot do anything with it

Strategic Management ABB, headquartered in Zurich, Switzerland, is a major competitor in the power and automation technologies industries across the major markets globally. It has 140,000 employees operating in almost 100 countries. In fact, it has five major businesses—power products, power systems, discrete automation, low voltage products, and process automation. It operates in eight major regions: (1) Northern Europe, (2) Central Europe, (3) the Mediterranean, (4) North America, (5) South America, (6) India, the Middle East, and Africa, (7) North Asia, and (8) South Asia. Over time, ABB has been a successful company using its geographic diversification across the globe to its advantage. It also exemplifies the difficulty of managing an international strategy and operations. For example, its power systems business has experienced performance problems in recent years due to poor performance in some countries due primarily to the economy downturn. Notwithstanding the difficulty of managing in emerging economies, much of its growth is focused on improving country infrastructure such as power systems and grids. In 2014, the firm announced that the Asia, Middle East, and Africa (AMEA) region currently contributes about 37 percent of ABB’s total revenue, or about $15.3 billion, and “emerging markets were planned to contribute to two-thirds of the forecast growth between 2015 and 2020.” In recent years, most of ABB’s entries to new mar- kets and expansions in existing markets have come from acquisitions of existing businesses in those mar- kets. Recently, it acquired Siemens’ solar energy busi- ness, Power-One, and U.S.-based Los Gatos Research, a manufacturer of gas analyzers used in environmental monitoring and research. The purchase of Power-One represents a major risk as the solar power industry is in a downturn. Yet some analysts predict a brighter future for the industry over the long term. ABB also uses other modes of entry and expansion, exemplified by the 2013 joint venture with China’s Jiangsu Jinke Smart Electric Company to design, manufacture, and provide follow-up service on high voltage instrument transformers. It also recently procured major contracts for business in Brazil and South Africa. Partly due to the global economic recession that began in 2008, recent weak economic performance, and some poor expansion decisions, ABB’s performance has been weaker than expected. As a result, the CEO and chief technology officer announced their resignations in 2013. Despite these changes, ABB is a highly respected global brand, and, after its recent changes (e.g., closing some country operations), its revenues and earnings have started to rise. These positive changes have been largely attributed to the success of its North American businesses. Its acquisitions of Baldor (maker of indus- trial motors) in 2010 and Thomas & Betts in 2012 greatly enhanced its North American operations and revenues. It has also had success in manufacturing equipment and robots with its robotics business headquartered in the United States. It is even moving to help small com- panies, such as ones in the beer industry, to automate their production processes. Therefore, even in turbulent times, ABB’s future looks bright. Case study: An International Strategy Powers ABB’s Future 1. What are the dominant reason’s for ABB to enter into international markets? 2. Which corporate international strategy would you classify ABB as using? Explain your answer. 3. Why has ABB used acquisitions and joint ventures as dominant entry modes in international markets? 4. What are the main political and economic risks that ABB must deal with given that it has a strong focus on entering emerging economies? 5. What are the significant organizational complexities that ABB encounters as it tries to manage its international strategy?

Analyze symbols for the United States

Choose two symbols (remember, symbols can be MANY things) prevalent in the United States. For each, explain:

1. Who is likely to have a “symbolic predisposition” toward it. How does this predisposition manifest itself?

2.What ideology incorporates this symbol?

Example: The American Flag is a symbol that represents the United States of America in international settings. American citizens are predisposed toward its meaning. It carries a sense of pride for man; while others see it as a symbol to redress government (i.e., by burning it or flying it upside-down). Immigrants often are predisposed to it as well: seeing it as a beacon of hope for a better life. Many groups and ideologies incorporate the flag. Nationalistic ideologies (e.g., militias, political ideologies, militarism) espouse the flag as their chief symbol.

2. Review the links referred to in To Practice and Explore: Text File Utilities #9 to see examples of using tar command

Perform

Use tar "to stuff" three files and then "unstuff" them into a new directory. Include the -v option.

The application has class Magazine which describes one Magazine object. Class LLMagazineRec desribes linked list whose nodes have data of Magazine type and includes recursive method createArrayListRec which you have to implement. Class Driver has main method that creates myList as linked lists of magazines. It should invoke recursive method from class LLMagazineRec. WRITTEN IN JAVA
