No, because the majority of city council members agrees with the budget proposed by the city manager. In addition, the basis of disagreement of the disagreed city council members is only on the assumption that the neighboring city of Brea is making money from the police service that they offered. As explained by the city manager the cost of hiring others police force from other cities in Orange County would be higher than offered by Brea. Besides, the city of Yorba Linda need to only cover cost per hour than to have their own force which also lead to additional cost of overhead. If the basis of disagreement is on the outcome of budgeting then the whole budgeting process would be in stake.

    1. With such a difficult decision, the anonymous caller could either report the fraudulent financial statements or go along with top management and risk being caught or being blamed for the misstatements. It is possible that the caller would face legal trouble at some point in the future if she decided to sign off on the statements. If the bank were to discover the overstated financials, the extended credit would be immediately revoked. It is necessary for the caller to evaluate all of the possible scenarios and ultimately come to a decision that corresponds to the law as well as her own moral standards.…

    As a budget director, I went to the Police Union and request a 10% cut in wages or freeze the wages until the next fiscal year, thus saving $300,000. Also cutting 16 paid holidays a year will save the City $400,000. The Police Union Committee advised the Union has only agreed to a 1% pay cut within the next fiscal year, which will save the City $30,000. The Committee has also agreed to 10 paid holidays a year instead of 16. This will save the City an annual $150,000 a year.…

    In the hard bargaining process with the police officers and the PBA, the city manager should have looked for other alternatives. I believe he should have come to the table ready to bargain in good faith. It does appear when you threaten to outsource something as visibly important as a police officer’s job, it appears you do not have the public’s best interest at heart, and ultimately, you are hired to serve the public and their interests. So by coming to the table with what he would like to see, and trying to bargain things such as benefits, vacation time, tuition reimbursement, etc, the city manager may have had a completely different outcome.…

    Sources of finance. Where capital markets/shareholders are the principal source of finance, accounting focuses on profitability, stewardship, and a fair presentation of results and financial position. There are high levels of disclosure in published financial statements. When banks are the principal source of finance, accounting tends to be conservative and disclosures are usually relatively low (banks have direct access to information). When governments are the principal source of finance, accounting is aimed at the information needs of government agencies such as tax collection, assembling macroeconomic statistics, or compliance with macroeconomic goals.…
