    Rossi Inc. is a diversified manufacturer of industrial products. In 2008, Rossi updated its asbestos litigation liability, including the costs of settlement payments and defense costs relating to currently pending claims and future claims projected to be filed against the Company through 2017 for losses incurred to date. Before 2008, the Company’s previous estimate was for claims projected to be filed through 2011. As part of the 2008 update to the asbestos litigation liability, Rossi engaged Thompson and Associates, a consulting firm, to serve as an external specialist to estimate the claims liability for December 31, 2008. As a result of the 2008 update and the external specialist claims estimate, the Company significantly increased its recorded asbestos litigation liability by $586 million, arriving at a total liability estimate of $1,055 million as of December 31, 2008. During 2009, additional payments against the reserve reduced the recorded liability to $962 million. As of December 31, 2009, the Company performed an analysis of the asbestos litigation reserve and determined that the asbestos litigation liability should remain at $962 million. In 2009, Rossi Inc.’s average cost per claim litigation increased from $29,000 in 2008, to $34,000 due to management’s aggressive approach. This resulted in Thompson concluding that the litigation liability account should have a carrying value of $1,124 Million instead of $962 Million. Management of Rossi Inc. thinks that there aggressive approach to litigation claims in 2009 and revised defense strategy will decrease litigation cost and defense cost in the future.…

    There is an old saying that goes, “Even the best laid plans can go astray”. This statement basically means that even when something is done with the best of intentions and preparation; it can still produce completely different results than what was originally intended. In America’s school systems, there are many examples of things being done with the best of intentions, but yielding less-than-desirable results. One of the largest and most prevalent examples of this can be seen when looking at the “Tracking System” that is often implemented in the majority of American schools. Although this system was brought about with the best of intentions and with no goal of hurting anyone, it is now an outdated practice that causes major problems in schools. When reading the article “How Tracking Creates a Poverty of Learning” by Mary Hatwood Futrell and Joel Gomez which examines the tracking system as it is currently, one can see that it causes and reinforces several negative attitudes towards students including the self-fulfilling prophecy, the lack of equality in the classroom, an unfair dominate culture influence, and the idea that one must assimilate in order to be accepted and do well.…
