Question 4
Content You can assume anything in developing the PowerPoint (person, place, time), however, you must follow your research proposal design. This means that the PowerPoint must discuss essential elements of each section of the proposal, including the budget. It is not sufficient to clip and paste whole sections of the proposal into the PowerPoint, (a funding panel can read your proposal for that). Rather, you must find the key words that succinctly explain your proposed study and why it should be funded. If you are unfamiliar with PowerPoint then you may go to the following websites for guidance: To access the link below please refer to the "How to Prepare a PowerPoint Presentation" located in the "Syllabus" section. How to Prepare a PowerPoint Presentation. Center for Learning and Teaching. Fall 2003. Binghamton University.

However, you will be graded on the professionalism of the presentation. Excessive use of clip art is inappropriate in a professional/scientific presentation. You might want to search the Internet for samples of professional and scientific PowerPoint files. Two examples are: Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) Screening for High Risk Patients by Ellen Warner M.D., Division of Medical Oncology.

Remember a PowerPoint presentation should keep the audience?s interest and focus on the central message of each slide. It also is a good example of a review of the literature. The Impact of the Know Your Health? Program on Underserved Diabetic and Hypertensive Patients in a Community Setting by Timothy Lawther, MPH, MA, Duval County Health Department, Jacksonville, FL presented at the 3rd National Prevention Summit, Washington DC October 25, 2005. Retrieved March 31, 2006, from http://www.healthierus.gov/steps/2005slides/C4/Lawther.ppt NOTE: This is a good example of how to report study findings and its implication for future research and policy making. Of course, your presentation will not have study findings per se but it could have what you expect to find (hypothesis).,The power point is based off of the attatchment that was given. There is no exact topic just follow the research paper as the topic
Question 5
14-33 ( Objective 14-4 ) The Meyers Pharmaceutical Company, a drug manufacturer, has the following internal controls for billing and recording accounts receivable: 1. An incoming customer?s purchase order is received in the order department by a clerk who prepares a prenumbered company sales order form on which is inserted the pertinent information, such as the customer?s name and address, customer?s account number, quantity, and items ordered. After the sales order form has been prepared, the customer?s purchase order is attached to it. 2. The sales order form is then passed to the credit department for credit approval. Rough approximations of the billing values of the orders are made in the credit department for those accounts on which credit limitations are imposed. After investigation, approval of credit is noted on the form. 3. Next, the sales order form is passed to the billing department, where a clerk uses a computer to generate the customer?s invoice. It automatically multiplies the number of items times the unit price and adds the extended amounts for the total amount of the invoice. The billing clerk determines the unit prices for the items from a list of billing prices. (a) Customer?s copy. (b) Sales department copy, for information purposes. (c) File copy. (d) Shipping department copy, which serves as a shipping order. Bills of lading are also prepared as carbon copy by-products of the invoicing procedure. 4. The shipping department copy of the invoice and the bills of lading are then sent to the shipping department. After the order has been shipped, copies of the bill of lading are returned to the billing department. The shipping department copy of the invoice is filed in the shipping department. 5. In the billing department, one copy of the bill of lading is attached to the customer?s copy of the invoice and both are mailed to the customer. The other copy of the bill of lading, together with the sales order form, is then attached to the invoice file copy and filed in invoice numerical order. 6. As the computer is generating invoices, it is also storing the transactions in an electronic file that is used to update the accounting records daily. A summary report is generated and all journals and ledgers are printed for a hardcopy of the records. 7. Periodically, an internal auditor traces a sample of sales orders all the way through the system to the journals and ledgers, testing both the procedures and dollar amounts. The procedures include comparing control totals with output, recalculating invoices and refooting journals, and tracing totals to the master file and general ledger. Required a. Flowchart the billing function as a means of understanding the system. b. List the internal controls over sales for each of the six transaction-related audit objectives. c. For each control, list a useful test of control to verify the effectiveness of the control. d. For each transaction-related audit objective for sales, list appropriate substantive tests of transactions audit procedures, considering internal controls. e. Combine the audit procedures from parts c and d into an efficient audit program for sales.
