Explain the concepts of the GAAP to the IFRS and how they relate to the practice of accounting and its business? Describe in detail the GAAP hierarchy. Why is it important that GAAP governs financial reporting? Why is the knowledge of accounting concepts and terminology...
Explain the term continuity correction. Why does it work, and how do you use it? Why is important being able to compute a z-score? What are scales of measurement? Illustrate each scale of measurement with an example. Why are they important to understand?
Understanding the relationship between urban form and structure and spatial inequality of property flood risk has been a longstanding challenge in urban planning and emergency management. Here we explore eight urban form and structure features to explain
Further studies are needed to examine whether the exotic three species also tolerate temporarily occurring extreme winter conditions such as temperatures below -35 °C, and the high short-term temperature variations in winter and especially in spring....
To describe the accuracy of responses in our visuotactile task, we used SDT measures sensitivity d′ and criterion location c as a metric of response bias. While d’ captures the perceiver’s ability to discriminate different choice alternatives and is calculated from hits (in our case correctly...
Don't take the count too seriously; assume that it's in error by least 10 percent (the best electronic pedometers claim 5 percent accuracy).For a pedometer to work correctly, you need to fix it to your waist—and not put it in your pocket—because a pedometer needs to detect the ...
The biggest advantage of iris scanning is its accuracy and reliability: it's estimated to be at least ten times more accurate than fingerprinting (claimed to produce around 1 in 1–2 million false matches, compared to fingerprints, which produce around 1 in 100,000, according to a 2003 stud...
is in a quantum superposition of states; rather, it is our less than infinite accuracy of measurement and knowledge of those orbits, plus their evolution under the influence of less-predictable effects like space weather or other still unidentified additional factors, that makes long-term estimates...
What is the most common cost allocation method in practice? Give the general formula for a mixed cost. Which term represents the variable cost and the fixed cost? Explain the concepts of fixed cost versus variable cost. Also contrast the concept of fixed cost to sunk cost. Ex...
Life in the clouds of Venus, if present in sufficiently high abundance, must be affecting the atmospheric chemistry. It has been proposed that abundant Venusian life could obtain energy from its environment using three possible sulfur energy-metabolisms.
