What is accrual accounting? Why do generally accepted accounting principles require accrual accounting?  What is the difference between accrual and cash accounting? When might an accountant use cash basis accounting without violating generally accepted accounting principles?

Accrual accounting is the reporting of revenues and expenses in the period of time that they occur, even if payment was not received or paid. Generally accepted accounting principles state that all revenues and expenses need to be reported during the time period that they occur. The cash-basis of accounting is the recording of revenue and expenses when payment is received and paid-out. This form of accounting violates the generally accepted accounting principles because it goes against the revenue recognition and the expense recognition principles. The cash

DQ2

What is the revenue recognition principle? What is the expense recognition principle? Why are they important to financial reporting?

In order for organizations to provide reliable, relevant, and transparent financial information to owners, managers, investors, lenders, and the IRS they must use accrual based financial accounting systems. The revenue recognition principle necessitate that organizations recognize their revenue during the accounting time period that it is earned, not necessarily received…

Week 5 DQ1

What is the control environment? How does the control environment affect a company’s internal controls? What are the negative and positive elements of a control environment?  What are two examples of strong and weak internal controls in organizations where you have worked or have first-hand knowledge? 

The control environment is the basis of the entire control system that the organization is establishing. The control environment is the value that is placed on integrity and the knowledge that unethical activity will not be tolerated. It is management’s responsibility to express behavior and attitude that enforces this ethical behavior. The control environment affects the internal control by setting a basis of control activities that safeguard assets, enhance accounting reliability, increase efficiency of operations, and compliance with laws and regulations. The negative elements of a control environment are that strict adherence must be applied continuously. Sometimes employees become overworked and underpaid and this is cause for concern because their level of carelessness goes up. Other times people might become slack in their duties over time. Some of the positive elements of a control environment are that responsibility does not lie on one person but many. Each part of a process requires several people to handle it therefore offering little opportunity to do wrong. Other positives are the process of that accountability is established and understood by each individual. An example of a weak internal control I witnessed was in a friend’s tanning bed business. The friend worked during the day and outlined how she expected her teenage employee’s to behave through policies and procedures. To my friends face the employees were the picture of a model employee but when she left in the evenings to go home and let them finish out the night the trouble would begin. The employees were letting all their friends tan for free, selling them tanning products and pocketing the cash. My friend finally put up a camera and goodness was she shocked at what was happening after she left for the evening. A strong control system that I have knowledge of is the system where I presently work…

PSY 870: Module 3 Problem Set

 

GAF, Consumer Satisfaction, and Type of Clinical Agency (Public or Private)

A researcher wants to know if mental health clients of private versus public service agencies differ on Global Assessment of Functioning (GAF) scores and on Satisfaction with Services (Satisfaction). She has collected data for 34 clients from a private agency and for 47 clients of a public agency.

 

Directions:

Use the SPSS data file for Module 3 (located in Topic Materials) to answer the following questions:

1.      What is the independent variable in this study? What are the dependent variables?

2.      The first step for the researcher will be to clean and screen the data. Please do this for the researcher and report your findings. Be sure to check it for possible coding errors, as well as complete the screening of the data to see if the data meet assumptions for parametric tests. Did you find any errors that the researcher made when setting up the SPSS data file (check the variable view)? If so, what did you find? How did you correct it?

HINT:

Yes, one of the variables is incorrectly listed as scale.

3.      Were there missing values on any of the variables? If so, what might you do for those for the independent variable? What about those for each of the dependent variables? Explain your reasoning.

HINTS:

·         Yes, each variable has some missing data. Describe how many (and % of all) are missing on each variable.

·         When considering what to do about the missing values on each variable, consider if you really can guess what agency a person came from.  Next, for the continuous variables, consider (1) what % of values are missing (if more than 5% are missing, what might this mean?); (2) is there a pattern to the missing scores?  Include information from the Output file of your SPSS Explore analyses to provide specific number and % of missing values on each of the dependent variables.  Based on this, what recommendation would you make for what to do about the missing values?

4.      Did you find any outliers on the dependent variables that were due to errors of coding? If so, what and why? How would you correct an error of coding?3

HINT:

One of the outliers on one continuous variable clearly is a coding error. Which one is that? What would be the best way to handle that outlier?

5.      How might you deal with outliers that are not due to coding errors? Explain your reasoning.

HINT:

Use the information you have from your Output file from your Explore analyses to describe the outliers (e.g. how many outliers are there on each continuous variable; do they fall above and/or below the mean). What are ways to handle outliers on the continuous variables? Might there be some arguments against deleting outliers? What are these?

6.      Check the descriptive statistics, histograms, stem-and-leaf plots, and the tests for normality that you obtained from your analyses (see box to check in “Plots” when using Explore to analyze descriptive statistics of your data). Considering the skewness and kurtosis values, as well as the Shapiro-Wilk’s results (preferred for small sample sizes), did the distribution of scores on either of the dependent variables violate the assumption of normality? How can you tell from the information you obtained from your analyses?

HINTS:

·         First, you can look at your histograms and stem-and-leaf plots to see if you observe marked skewness or other indicators of differences between the distribution of scores from the normal distribution.

·         Next, you can inspect the computed values for skewness and kurtosis for your variables from your analyses. Report these values in your answer for the continuous dependent variables? Which ones are greater than + 1.0? What does having a skewness or kurtosis value that is greater than + 1.0 tell you about normality? Then, discuss what having these kinds of values tell you about the normality of the distribution of scores on that variable.

·         Next, look at the Shapiro-Wilks’ tests of normality that you ran. Results with p < .001 or less indicate a violation of the normality assumption using this type of evaluation.

7.      If in #6, you identified any distributions that violate the assumption of normality, what are some options you might use to try to correct the distribution to get closer to normality? (You do not need to do these steps. Just describe them.)

8.      Write a sample result section, discussing your data screening activity.
