Deliverable 7 – Evaluating and AIS

I’m working on a Accounting question and need guidance to help me study.

Competencies

  1. Value the importance of information technology to accountants.
  2. Assess accounting information systems.
  3. Design the steps to justify an information system initiative.
  4. Synthesize appropriate and effective use of technology for managing accounting and financial information flows and presentation.
  5. Evaluate the threats and risks associated with accounting information systems.
  6. Explore special topics in accounting information systems to include the impact of globalization and a multinational business presence.

Scenario Information

Your company, Swift Athletics is a publicly held, mid-sized manufacturer, with $20 million dollars in annual revenue. You produce high-end running shoes exclusively in the US. You are planning to sell your products internationally within the next two years. You operate in a lean environment, and your supplier monitors your raw materials needs, and shipments are made JIT.

Assume that you are the Chief Accounting Officer (CAO) for the company. The company is publicly held; therefore, it must follow all reporting requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).

The company is expanding rapidly and has outgrown its information system. You have been given the task of evaluating and recommending a viable accounting information system solution for the accounting and financial data. Your final proposal will be delivered to the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and Chief Information Officer (CIO). You must be able to support your proposal with appropriate research.

Instructions

To complete this project:

  1. Articulate the value of an AIS and how it can be used to facilitate growth at Swift. Identify the departments/functions of a manufacturer like Swift that will utilize the AIS, and how the departments will interact.
  1. Prepare a summary that identifies the departments listed above, a weakness or threat for each department, explanation of why the weakness exists, and the steps that you will implement in your new system to address the weakness issues. Note: An example of a weakness or threat in the general ledger and reporting system might be an unauthorized disclosure of financial statements. Controls to respond to this weakness or threat include access controls and encryption. You may wish to present this information in a table for your presentation.
  1. While the balanced scorecard is not a new concept, it does offer a framework allowing managers to measure an enterprise’s performance from four categories: financial, customer, business processes, and learning and growth. The balanced scorecard considers both financial and nonfinancial measures. After researching the balanced scorecard, for each of the four categories, identify at least one critical success factor for Swift to achieve shareholder value.
  1. As part of the planning process for your new accounting information system, you need to prepare flowcharts. This graphic will present the flow of information through the accounting cycles. Prepare flowcharts for at least two business departments/functions for Swift. Each flowchart should be detailed, and have the right symbols for each process. Also, think your way through the processes from beginning to end. For example, how is sales revenue defined, such as when is it considered earned? The following are the business processes that you may elect to address:
    • Sales
    • Purchasing
    • Production
    • Payroll

    Please note that you will have two distinct flowcharts for this assignment. Be sure your flowcharts are professionally presented and clearly labeled.

  1. What are the steps you will take to justify the new information system initiative? What must be considered for Swift? How will you assess the financial implications? What is the impact on the AIS of globalization and a multinational business presence?
  1. How will appropriate and effective use of technology for managing the accounting and financial information flows and presentation be affected?
  1. Evaluate the threats and risks associated with the accounting information system for Swift.

Prepare a PowerPoint presentation along with an executive summary to be delivered to the CEO and CIO which includes the information in 1-7 above. Be creative in your slides by incorporating charts, graphs, and/or artwork. Your PowerPoint presentation should begin with an introduction as to why the project is being considered, and conclude with the value of the project. Incorporate slide notes where needed. Include an APA formatted reference slide and in-text citing where appropriate.

MAPP504 Economics & Public Policy

I need help with a Political Science question. All explanations and answers will be used to help me learn.

    Issue Analysis 1 (wk 2)

Issue Analysis 1 (wk 2)

DUE: Jan 19, 2020 11:59 PM

Attachments checked for originality? Yes

Assignment Instructions

This week you are asked to write a critical, analytic essay of between 7-9 pages covering the following questions. Use at least 5 scholarly peer-reviewed sources (from your required and supplementary readings as well as independent research and primary government sources). Please cite all sources perfectly in APA style.

What are the arguments in favor of the public sector production of goods and services? Why is it that the private sector may not be best suited to providing them even though it might be able to do so more efficiently? Support and deepen your argument by choosing a proposed or existing policy area involving a clear public good/service in your local or state government. How do the major concepts we have discussed so far in this course apply? Who are the stakeholders and are they being equitably and/or efficiently served? Briefly review the development and implementation of the issue and evaluate how far it responds to the twin issues of efficiency and equity. Are they anywhere near an optimal balance? Is the policy effective and is it meeting (or could it meet) stated goals? Could reallocation of resources promote a more efficient and equitable balance? Conclude with brief recommendations for improving or modifying the policy in the areas of efficiency and equity. Multimedia tools are encouraged.

The criteria for evaluating this issue analysis is based on the Graduate Assignment Rubric, which can be found in the iRubric icon.

Perception and Attribution on Organizational Behavior

I’m working on a Management exercise and need support.

Research Question(s):

1. What are the impacts of perception and attribution on organizational decision-making?

2. How do employee perception and attribution specifically effect individual, group, and organizational function?

Article Review:

Provide a review of relevant scholarly articles that answer the research question(s). Keep in mind that you may have to alter the question wording in your searches in order to identify relevant works. It is important to look for key writers/researchers in the field, and prevailing theories and hypotheses. This article review should provide a foundation to answer the research question(s), but it is not meant to be an exhaustive review of all relevant literature – if you choose to pursue this topic later in your program, you will be able to use this information as a base to continue your secondary research. A review of 2-4 articles is appropriate for this section. (approx. 3 pages)

Application: Identify and explain methods to help shape productive perceptions at a music record company. (approx. 1.5 pages)

Submission Instructions:

Submit your paper as a Word document.

APA formatting, proper in-text citations, and references are required for all written submissions.

Review the attached rubric before submitting.

You will need to submit your paper to BOTH this assignment AND Turnitin separately. Turnitin is used to check for issues of plagiarism. Find the Turnitin Submission area directly below this assignment.

2 assignments on dealing with employees

I’m studying for my Philosophy class and need an explanation.

FIRST PAPER: Complete a 1-2 page paper on handling disgruntled employees. Label the running head and title page Disgruntled employees …Your paper must include:

  • APA formatted title page
  • 1-2 pages of narrative including
    • Introductory paragraph
    • Define disgruntled employee.
    • What makes an employee disgruntled?
    • How do we know when one of our employees is disgruntled?
    • What can be done to reverse the disgruntled employee’s attitude?
    • Conclusion
  • Reference Page

SECOND PAPER:For this section of your project, think more about your officer, Jane Smith. Using the information from your written assignment and other resources write a 1-2 paper on the following: label title page and running head dealing with employees

  • Based on your observations of Officer Smith do you believe she is a disgruntled employee?
  • What is making her a disgruntled employee and, if it is possible, how can you fix it?

SCENARIO :Course Project

Information:

  • A promotional process for sergeants was recently completed and you were promoted to sergeant.
  • A promotional process for detectives was recently completed and nobody from Bravo District was chosen for an open detective position.

Scenario:

As a newly promoted patrol Sergeant you are assigned to Bravo District, the highest crime area of the county. There are 90 square miles and 87,000 people living in Bravo District and nearly all are below the poverty level. You have inherited a squad of 8 patrol officers who are all senior, veteran officers that have a reputation for not doing much during their shifts and being nothing more than report takers.

One of the officers on your squad is Jane Smith who is a veteran officer with 8 years of patrol service in Bravo District. Jane has never done anything else in law enforcement but after 8 years she is ready for a change and she wants to be a detective in one of the district property crimes units. Jane is upset because she was passed over and has to wait at least two years before she will get another shot at a detective position; she doesn’t understand why she was passed over and she wants some answers from you – her supervisor. You cheerily agree to meet with her and discuss her career goals but you tell her you need some time to pull some information and it will be about a week before you can sit down with her and talk – she is thankful and says she will wait for you to get back with her.

First you pull all of the stats for your squad and they look like this:

You call the head of the department’s criminal investigations division to inquire as to Jane’s performance on the testing process for the detective position – you find out that she finished at the top of the list but still wasn’t chosen. You ask why and are told that her numbers were pulled and she is obviously lazy and disgruntled because she works in the busiest most active district and has very low activity – we can’t have disgruntled, low morale, lazy detectives.

You observe Officer Smith’s work for one week prior to meeting with her and you contact her previous supervisor and inquire as to his observations. You see and learn that she isn’t very active and it appears there are problems.

You call Officer Smith and arrange a meeting to discuss the problems with her.
