Your assignment is to consider the areas the paralegal needs to probe to ensure that the office doesn't misunderstand what the client wants.

During an interview, a client makes the following statement: “I want to institutionalize my sick father.” Examples of questions to ask: Why does she want to commit her father? Has the client considered or tried outpatient care? Is she seeking revenge against him? Does she need police protection from her father? Does she know what a mental institution is? Is she attempting to obtain some of her property from him, which he controls? Is she seeking access to his property? Is someone else squandering her father’s property, which she does not know how to stop?

Imagine seven years from now you have finally gotten the promotion you were working hard for at that dream job working for Porsche headquarters in Stuttgart, Germany.

Should I give the Page Quality (PQ) rate of LOW or LOWEST?

1. True/False - A page with a mismatch between the location of the page and the rate location; for example an English (UK) page for an English (US) rating task.

I think it's false because of this statement in the general guidelines. Do not consider the country or location of the page or website for PQ rating. For example, English (US) raters should use the same PQ standards when rating pages from other English language websites (UK) as they use when rating pages from the U.S websites. In other words, English (US) raters should not lower the PQ rating because the page location (UK) does not match the task location.

2. True/False A file type other than a webpage, for example: a PDF, a Microsoft Word document, or a PNG file.

3. True/False A page that gets a Didn't Load flag.

4. True/False Pages with an obvious problem with functionality or errors in displaying content.

You are the controller for Bizbee Corporation, and a few days ago, you provided a draft of this year's financial statements to the chief executive officer (CEO) of the company, Mr. Bizbee. You rode up in the elevator with him today, and he began to quiz you about how you reported the company's investments in debt and equity securities. He said to you, "When I took accounting in college, investment securities were reported at historical cost. I remember what we paid for some of our investments, and the numbers on the financial statements don't match those amounts! What's going on? Be in my office this afternoon to explain!"

To get ready for your meeting, assemble the following:

  • The valuation approach was used on the balance sheet for the investments. Provide an analysis on why you used this approach. Assume your company has only debt and equity securities where the equity interest is less than 20%. The company's debt securities are all classified as held to maturity, but it has both trading and available-for-sale equity securities.
  • Assemble and evaluate which generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) for investment securities changed from historical cost to the current valuation approach.
  • Assess how investment securities should be valued on the company's financial statements.
