This is a very last minute thing and the task is moderate difficulty. The document “AI and RPA Opportunities” contains an in-depth analysis of the RPA called UIPath. I have a presentation first thing tomorrow (1:00AM UTC time 5/6/20) and am going to speak in-depth on UIPath. After the presentation, there will be 5 minutes of question time from the audience and teachers. For the task, I’d like the expert to come up with a list of 20 different questions that may be asked with regards to UIPath. The questioning is going to be heavily based on UIPath and I don’t have a clue what questions I may be asked by the audience or teachers.

Question 1
Technology has improved on agricultural business and as a result new smart agribusinesses are enhancing
agricultural value chain. Farmers are provided with marketing opportunities that help them link their products
with potential customers. Other agribusiness entrepreneurs are adding value to raw materials and selling new
products at competitive prices. There is the need to create an online trading platform for farmers to trade their
commodities at favourable prices or store them to receive warehouse receipts. The receipt system will give
farmers the opportunity to deposit goods (mainly grains) in order to acquire a warehouse; a financial
instrument that shows deposit proof with the quality and quality of the goods in question. Farmers can delay
the sale of their commodities to a period when prices are more favourable. Warehouse receipt systems can
therefore mobilize credit for agricultural sector and improve agriculture trade.
One of the main criticisms of existing initiatives is that they do not cater for the needs of smallholder farmers
and market Queens and traders. For example, to become a member of the Ghana Commodity Exchange, you
need to have a valid business registration certificate and a business net worth of GHS80, 000.
The Ministry of Food and Agriculture in collaboration with National Board for Small Scale Industries
(NBSSI) are at the forefront of leveraging technology to ensure an efficient agriculture value chain.

i) Develop a business case for the AgriMarket project.
ii) Identify stakeholders needs in AgriMarket project.
iii) Define the scope of the solution.
iv) Develop requirements, including a use cases diagram

You are in your second year as an auditor with Dantly and Regis, a regional CPA firm. One of the firm’s long-time clients is Mayberry-Cleaver Industries, a national company involved in the manufacturing, marketing, and sales of hydraulic devices used in specialized manufacturing applications. Early in this year’s audit you discover that Mayberry-Cleaver has changed its method of determining inventory from LIFO to FIFO. Your client’s explanation is that FIFO is consistent with the method used by some other companies in the industry. Upon further investigation, you discover an executive stock option plan whose terms call for a significant increase in the shares available to executives if net income this year exceeds $44 million. Some quick calculations convince you that without the change in inventory methods, the target will not be reached; with the change, it will.

American Movieplex, a large movie theater chain, leases most of its theater facilities. In conjunction with recent operating leases, the company spent $28 million for seats and carpeting. The question being discussed over breakfast on Wednesday morning was the length of the depreciation period for these leasehold improvements. The company controller, Sarah Keene, was surprised by the suggestion of Larry Person, her new assistant.
Keene:
Why 25 years? We’ve never depreciated leasehold improvements for such a long period.
Person:
I noticed that in my review of back records. But during our expansion to the Midwest, we don’t need expenses to be any higher than necessary.
Keene:
But isn’t that a pretty rosy estimate of these assets’ actual life? Trade publications show an average depreciation period of 12 years.
Page 915
Required:
How would increasing the depreciation period affect American Movieplex’s earnings?
Does revising the estimate pose an ethical dilemma?
Who would be affected if Person’s suggestion is followed?
