Topic: Inventory Valuation Errors

Purpose: The
purpose of this forum is to challenge you to explain and demonstrate
the impact of inventory valuation errors on the income statement and
balance sheet.

Thread:
Based on the textbook reading this week you will consider what
noncurrent assets are and how they affect a business. You may refer to
the textbook https://openstax.org/books/principles-financial-accounting/pages/10-4-explain-and-demonstrate-the-impact-of-inventory-valuation-errors-on-the-income-statement-and-balance-sheet in
order to complete this forum. The question for this forum also comes
from your textbook and can be located in the PDF version as Thought
Provoker question TP5 or can also be found by https://openstax.org/books/principles-financial-accounting/pages/10-thought-provokers
The question has also been provided in this forum for ease of access.
Consider what you have learned this week and answer the following:

Consider the dilemma you might
someday face if you are the CFO of a company that is struggling to
satisfy investors, creditors, stockholders, and internal company
managers. All of these financial statement users are clamoring for
higher profits and more net assets (also known as equity). If at some
point, you suddenly found yourself not meeting the internal and external
earnings and equity targets that these parties expect, you would
probably search for some way to make the financial statements look
better. What if your boss, the CEO, suggested that maybe you should make
just one simple journal entry to record all the goods that your company
is holding on consignment, as if that significant amount of goods were
owned by your company? She might say that this action on your part would
fix a lot of problems at once, since adding the consigned goods to
merchandise inventory would simultaneously increase net assets on the
balance sheet and increase net income on the income statement (since it
would decrease cost of goods sold).
How would you respond to this
request? Describe your willingness or not to embrace this suggestion,
giving reasons behind your decision. Remember to exercise diplomacy,
even if you must dissent from the opinion of a supervisor. Note that the
challenge of the assignment is to keep your integrity intact while also
keeping your job, if possible.

Using appropriate footnote citation format, include at least: (a) one reference from the readings or videos and (b) at least one reference from a business publication that is listed at https://hbu.libguides.com/c.php?g=935212&p=8893762 in your initial thread. All of these publications are freely available to you in electronic format.

Replies:
After you have posted your answers, reply to at least 2 of your peers’
posts. Replies should be substantive. Is there a particular thread you
agree or disagree with? If so, why? Is there a point that a classmate
could have expounded upon a bit more? If so, constructively provide
feedback.

Discuss about the economic suffering and implication due to the plague of COVID-19 in UK Retail Sector.

Research Aim: The research must assess the disruption that has been created by the spread of COVID-19 in the world. This must include the global lockdown of the countries and the shutting of industries, resulting in soaring unemployment rates and a dramatic decline in economic statistics. The research aims to look at the economic consequences generated by the outbreak of COVID-19 in general.

Explain how the periodic measurements could assist you in your ongoing work with Paula

The steps at the heart of single-system (subject) research are part of the everyday practice of social work. Each day social workers implement interventions to meet clients’ needs and monitor results. However, conducting proper single-system (subject) research entails far more than these simple day-to-day practices. Proper single-system research requires a high degree of knowledge and commitment. Social workers must fully understand the purpose of single-system (subject) research and the variations of single-system (subject) design. They must develop a hypothesis based upon research and select the right design for testing it. They must ensure the reliability and validity of the data to be collected and know how to properly analyze and evaluate that data. This assignment asks you to rise to the challenge of creating a proposal for a single-subject research study.

To prepare for this Assignment, imagine that you are the social worker assigned to work with Paula Cortez (see the case study, “Social Work Research: Single Subject” in this week’s resources). After an initial assessment of her social, medical, and psychiatric problems, you develop a plan for intervention. You also develop a plan to monitor progress in your work with her using measures that can be evaluated in a single-system research design. As a scholar practitioner, you rely on research to help plan your intervention and your evaluation plan.

Complete the Cortez Family interactive media in this week’s resources. Conduct a literature search related to the chronic issues related to HIV/AIDS and bipolar mental disorder. Search for additional research related to assessing outcomes and theoretical frameworks appropriate for this client. For example, your search could include terms such as motivational interviewing and outcomes and goal-oriented practice and outcomes. You might also look at the NREPP database identified in Week 1, to search for interventions related to mental health and physical health.

By Day 7
Submit a 5- to 7-page proposal/research plan for single-system (subject) evaluation for your work with Paula Cortez. Identify the problems that you will target and the outcomes you will measure, select an appropriate intervention or interventions (including length of time), and identify an appropriate evaluation plan.

Include a description of:

The problem(s) that are the focus of treatment
The intervention approach, including length of time, so that it can be replicated
A summary of the literature that you reviewed that led you to select this intervention approach
The purpose for conducting a single-system (subject) research evaluation
The measures for evaluating the outcomes and observing change including:
Evidence from your literature search about the nature of the measures
The validity and reliability of the measures
How baseline measures will be obtained
How often follow-up measures will be administered
The criteria that you would use to determine whether the intervention is effective
How the periodic measurements could assist you in your ongoing work with Paula

What are the demographics of this population in your area?

Select a vulnerable population in your community. To do this, conduct a windshield survey in your community. A windshield survey is completed by observing a population by looking out of a window of your car (or a bus, or riding your bike) to identify a vulnerable population in your community. Conduct research on your chosen population via the Internet and by calling or visiting your local health department. Develop a PowerPoint presentation to communicate your observations and research. An example listing of vulnerable populations has been included for your consideration.

Poor and homeless persons
Pregnant adolescents
Migrant workers and immigrants
Severely mentally ill individuals
Substance abusers
Abused individuals and victims of violence
Persons with communicable disease
People at risk of disease transmission
Persons who are HIV positive
Persons with Hepatitis B virus
Other suggestions:
Elderly
Children
Women with high risk pregnancies
Women with access to prenatal care

t
Prepare a power point presentation that identifies each of the following
Should have a title slide, at least one slide per category below, and a reference slide with all sources in APA format
I. Population Description
How many members of this vulnerable population are in your town/city or state? (Use state information if city statistics are not available)
What are the demographics of this population in your area? Age ranges, ethnicities, employment status, etc.
II. Health Risks
What are the main health risks this population faces? Example: Substance abusers are at risk for liver failure, HIV, hepatitis B/C, overdose death, suicide, depression, etc.
What are the health needs of this population? Example: Substance abusers need access to detoxification centers, rehabilitation, mental health services such as counseling, HIV screening, treatment for HIV or Hep B/C, etc.
III. Resources
What resources, services, or programs are available in your area to address this population’s health risks and health needs. Include at least one resource that is geared toward primary prevention. Label each resource as “primary”, “secondary”, or “tertiary”. Example: Primary prevention for substance abuse includes D.A.R.E programs in schools.
IV. Service Gaps/Interventions
Describe one resource that is not currently available in your area but would be valuable in improving outcomes for your chosen population. Discuss the impact you think this resource could have, including at least one reference that supports this impact. Example: Mississippi does not have mental health services for homeless individuals dealing with substance abuse. Substance abusers frequently struggle with co-existing mental illness and when they cannot receive adequate counseling and support, they find it very difficult to engage in the recovery process.
