Dear Ms. Sandra,

Thank you for your call on Friday it was very nice to speak with you and gain some more insight on the situation. Again, I am very sorry for what happened to your brand new IPhone. We have had quite a few situations with these where the phones have been dropped and are no longer operable. However we consider this customer abuse and not a phone defect, because of this we cannot replace your IPhone under our 14 day warranty.

I do understand your concern that the case is what caused the phone to be dropped however we are not able to duplicate this and as a basic regulation a phone with a cracked screen is not covered

    As the case of Excello Telecommunications is reviewed it can be seen that the CFO was facing financial difficulties due to increased competition. In 2010 the earnings estimate was not going to be met and this would have affected the bonuses, stock options, and the share prices of the Excello stocks. After discovering a large sale that was pending until the shipment could be made for the following year the CFO asked the company controller to find a way to capitalize on the sale in the current year so that the budget shortfall could be met. The only way to accomplish the task was to work around the rules of accounting. The intent to find a way around the rules presents possible legal issues. This case can be evaluated by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and the AICPA and we look at the financial reporting standards and ethics involved.…

    Although land lines and cell phones serve the same main purpose of making and receiving calls they have a large variety of differences. Regular home phones are limited to the perimeter of the house while cell phones have the mobility to be taken and used anywhere. In case of an emergency, it is said the home phones are much safer since the cell phones rely on signals from antennas and depending on your location you may not be able to get a signal to make a call. Home phones have limited features such as call forwarding, caller identification, voicemail, and of course free long distance. On the other hand, cell phones have a wide variety of features including but not limited to text messages, Internet, camera, e-mail, and application downloads, etc. These cell phones are also known as smart phones or PDA's. Home phone lines are good for DSL Internet connection, home security systems and faxes. Personally those are the only reasons we have a landline in our home. Another difference between the two is pricing, depending on the type of cell phone and the data package that your phone requires they can be more expensive, while your landline has one monthly bill. Cell phones are such in demand that the local phone companies are now offering cell phone service in addition to regular home phones. While you can record music to your home phone's answering machine, a cell phone acts as a whole music system and can store hundreds to thousands of songs, depending on the memory on the phone. Add a memory card to your cell phone, another plus that the home phone doesn't offer, and this adds even more memory to your phone where music, photos, applications, contacts and much more can be stored. Once the memory card is removed, it can be used in another phone and so you won't lose your information.…

    1.) The variable costs in Exhibit 2 are Power and Hourly Personnel Wages as the costs fluctuate from month to month and are driven by the revenue hours for the company. The fixed costs in Exhibit 2 are Rent, Custodial Services, Computer Equipment Leases, Computer Maintenance, Computer Depreciation, Office Equipment and Fixtures Depreciation, Salaried Staff Wages, Systems Development and Maintenance, Administrative Wages, Sales Wages, Sales Promotion, and Corporate Services. Rent, Custodial Services, Computer Equipment Leases, Computer Maintenance, Computer Depreciation, Office Equipment and Fixtures Depreciation, Salaried Staff Wages, Systems Development and Maintenance, Administrative Wages, and Sales Wages are all obviously fixed because the expenses do not vary monthly. However, Sales Promotion and Corporate Services expenses change monthly, but the change is not dependent on revenue hours. Therefore, they are fixed with respect to revenue hours.…

    Can you imagine staring at a screen for four years? The average human will spend four years total staring at their phone, if not more (Doc 7). With the technological advancements our world grew to, our people followed in the growth. By doing so, our human emotions are being replaced with “like” and “dislike” buttons, and our brains only want to learn something if it’s within the first three links in a Google search engine. Students and parents should limit their use of cell phones because they isolate our emotions, they negatively affect our body and mind, and keep us seperated from relationships with people.…

    Roughly 15 years ago a new product emerged onto the market. American consumers could now purchase and use telephones that would travel with them in their automobiles. However, these inventions were large, bulky, the size of a briefcase, and weighed roughly 10 pounds. Modern day Americans have found a place in their everyday lives for this once jaw-dropping invention. Americans have also demanded, and received, adjustments to these mobile telephones. Today it is possible to purchase mobile phones that are hardly the size of one’s palm for an extremely low cost to the consumer. The recent surge in use of cellular phones has changed the way most Americans communicate. Conversely the internet has done the same. However, cell phones have grown at a much more exponential rate and have become the absolute necessity for many people. Cell phones have had a sociological impact unparalleled by any technological innovation before them. Cell phones have been at the center of controversy and skepticism, but they have also been praised for usefulness and their inevitability. This technology has been focused upon as being the source of brain cancer, car accident, attention deficit disorder, and migraines. However it has also proven to be the tool of the most successful people in the business world. The thesis this paper proposes is that cell phones have had a negative social impact but are still quite inevitable.…

When talking about cell phones, it’s hard to go without discussing the best of the best. What exactly is the ideal perfect phone? I need my phone to be able to do many things at once. My phone must keep me in contact with friends, have games for when I’m bored, and have internet access for those awkward moments in a crowd of no one you know.

    Paul Jordan's boss gave him an assignment where he was required to look at cell phone orders for the past three years. With this information, he is to use new planning techniques to project expected orders for the next 6 to 12 months, as well as advise his boss on what actions he should take for future production. The method we used to forecast the cell phone orders for the upcoming year is regression analysis; we calculated the linear regression formula from the given data, and then applied the formula to the later months. Based on the linear regression equation, we anticipate the cell phone industry to continue to grow over the next 12 months, but Jordan's boos should feel free to stray away from actual forecasts for certain months. Method II is used to forecast the cell phone orders for the upcoming year is seasonal analysis. Seasonal variations in data are regular up and down movements in a time series that relate to recurring events such as weather or holiday. Analyzing and adjusting the data to seasonal indexes allows the forecast to be a more accurate estimate of demand. We are here to learn how to use linear regression to forecast how an industry will perform as well as use these calculations to recommend real life actions, like Paul Jordan is required to do. We are also here to learn how to use a variety of methods to forecast how an industry is expected to perform and provide analysis for capacity planning in…
