Subject: Trip Memo-Report
I participated in the ESB Networking Event at January 30. It is a great opportunity for me to meet and communicate with employers and learn about some information of a few companies. This report focuses on what I learned from the special experience and how it influences my thought and my future job.

Experience in the ESB Networking Event
Different companies provided different career options at the event. For example, Children Hospital Foundation of Saskatchewan hired volunteers, which were to teach children or take care of children. In addition, Affinity Credit Union provided positions for part-time jobs and full-time jobs about accounts and services. I was interested in this company, and talked with Lori who was human resources advisor. She told me some information about the company and part-time jobs in summer. Affinity Credit Union is one of the largest credit union in Canada, and it offers products and services to achieve their members’ financial goals. The employees should have good communication skills and management abilities. As a finance major student, it is an opportunity to learn and be familiar with the financial business. If I am hired, it will be an excellent experience for my future career.

Value of the experience
In fact, I am afraid of attending an event, because I do not know how to communicate with potential employers and other businessman. However, after this event, I think it is necessary for an undergraduate student though I am still worry about my speaking ability. Communication is an important part in the future career, such as how to talk with leaders, how to chat with colleagues and how to negotiate with other corporations. Hence, the most important factor for participant in the event is to improve an ability of communication. In addition, it is also an opportunity to open up one’s eyes. Study tasks are heavy for undergraduate students; so many students do not have enough time to take part in social

    The information of a memo is important because it tells the audience the reason for writing the memo. Memorandums can have information that does not apply to the message. For instance, Andrew had information about Macy’s winning the test case against the United States right to use LIFO. This information is not necessary because it does not apply to the company. A memo with information overload can cause the audience to lose their attention, and it has the potential of letting the audience know that they have no knowledge of the subject.…

    25-4 This guidance addresses what constitutes minimum lease payments under the minimum-lease-payments criterion in paragraph 840-10-25-1(d) from the perspective of the lessee and the lessor. Lease payments that depend on a factor directly related to the future use of the leased property, such as machine hours of use or sales volume during the lease term, are contingent rentals and, accordingly, are excluded from minimum lease payments in their entirety. (Example 6 [see paragraph 840-10-55-38] illustrates this guidance.) However, lease payments that depend on an existing index or rate, such as the consumer price index or the prime interest rate, shall be included in minimum lease payments based on the index or rate existing at lease inception; any increases or decreases in lease payments that result from subsequent changes in the index or rate are contingent rentals and thus affect the determination of income as accruable. (Example 7 [see paragraph 840-10-55-39] illustrates this guidance.)…

    I am writing you this memo in compliance with the mandatory mediation requirements issued by the court. I would first like to state to you my stance in this case. I have been dealing with this particular vendor for about six months now. The business relationship started after my wife and I visited Mrs. Doe’s Sunday school class in Huntsville, Alabama. I was there in support of my wife and to explore the Christian religion, but in small talk Mrs. Doe informed me of her family’s grape vineyard and the value of a certain natural product they produced. My natural herb store was in need of some new products for my customers so I agreed to try Mrs. Doe’s product in my store.…

    Date: 4-11-09Re: Case 3-5A.Discuss the concept of relevance. In your opinion, would the amounts reported by U.S. companies for property, plant, and equipment be more or less relevant than the current cost amounts reported by companies in England, Mexico, or elsewhere?RelevanceInformation is relevant when it influences the economic decisions of users by helping them evaluate past, present, and future or by confirming or correcting their past evaluations. Relevance is also affected by materiality. Information has the quality of relevance when it is 'capable of making a difference in the economic decisions of users by helping them evaluate the effect of past and present events on future net cash inflows (predictive value) or confirm or correct previous evaluations(confirmatory value), even if it is not being used' (FASB, 2005: 2; FASB 1980: 37). In the IASB framework information has the quality of relevance 'when it influences the economic decisions of users by helping them evaluate past, present of future events or confirming, or correcting, their past evaluations' (IASB, 1989: 24). Both frameworks thus say that accounting information is relevant if it has the capacity to make a difference in a decision. The FASB requires information to be capable of making a difference in the economic decisions of users 'even if it is not being used'. However, to be relevant the IASB definition additionally requires that information is used i.e. influences the decision maker in making economic decisions. Another small difference between the FASB and IASB framework is the FASB framework explicitly mentions that relevant information has to have predictive and feedback value, while the IASB uses these terms implicit in its framework. 'The predictive and confirmatory roles of information are interrelated (IASB,1989: 27).…

    Looking back on the course as a whole, I have learned how to effectively analyze my audience and distinguish and adapt my writing for that audience. I learned different ways to make technical documents look appealing to readers while also using graphics ad white space to effectively show the words of the documents. I learned how to work better in a team setting as well as improved my individual writing. My sentence structure and effectiveness has definitely improved over the semester as well. My thoughts about technical writing and technical documents wasn't changed much except for how much thought needs to be put into who the audience is and how to write specifically to that audience. Learning how to write memos effectively and just the general format for them will help me in the workplace. The help I received on my resume and cover letter during the course will help me tremendously getting into the workplace.…

    1. Last year, your company initiated a major effort to improve productivity throughout the company. During the first few months, little improvement was made. Recently, however, major gains, exceeding 20 percent, have been made in both the packaging and equipment repair departments. You would like to commend them for their achievements, and announce to the other departments that gains are possible. You are also aware that some production employees believe that significant gains in productivity means the loss of some jobs because the company will be able to achieve the same output with fewer employees. Another local company laid off 5 percent of its workforce shortly after announcing productivity gains. Nonetheless, you believe that by achieving even modest productivity gains, your company will become more competitive and therefore be able to capture a larger share of the market. You believe that increased demand will more than offset productivity gains, and may even require hiring more employees. Naturally, you cannot guarantee this, although you are optimistic about the chances that this will occur. Write a one-page memo to employees that covers these points.…

    The best way to begin a refusal is by setting an apologetic tone. You do not want to point blame at the customer, even if you feel they are wrong. Show empathy, and see if you can help them in anyway possible. Remember when writing a refusal all that’s representing our company are the words on the page; so we must use correct grammar and punctuation.…

    What’s better than being able to look down the road and say “I have ‘never worked a day in my life’?” Having a passion for acting and singing, I hope to one day incorporate that in what I do for a living. Brands, Finance and Performance Arts are the three things that I want to start a business with, considering I want to run my own Event Management company that would focus on organizing performing art festivals, theatrical plays etc. Having studied Marketing at Business School, and with an ongoing major in Finance, I have theoretical know-how of the ways I can make this happen but through the seminars on Branding and Finance, I hope to learn practical applications of my idea. Branding would help me sell my idea and develop my unique selling proposition, while considering I have a lack of financial means, Finance would help me surpass that by equipping me with knowledge about acquiring investors and effective management of finances. There is no better way of widening your horizon than through listening to other people and studying their journeys-their goals, their aspirations, the obstacles they faced and how they over-came them. Moreover, humans being social animals, I have a thirst for meeting new people because I consider there’s nothing that can add to your perspective more than spending an hour talking to a complete stranger. This not only adds to personal development but will help me approach my business idea from angles I never knew existed. This conference and these workshops pose as the perfect opportunities for widening my business acumen and also as brilliant networking prospects. I want go back to my country, equipped with this new-found information and apply it to my country not only in terms of my business idea but also in developmental efforts. And hopefully, someone else will be returning to theirs, knowing I helped them in my own little way.…
