Movie-"The man from Earth"
Hi friends!!
Today there is something extremely new on our blog. We have shared information traversing topics like finance, interview preparation, writing resumes etc. etc etc….
But today, I want to discuss about a movie that I saw recently. Its named as the man from Earth. It is directed by Richard Schenkman and was released in the year 2007
Some parts in the discussion could be found as profane to some religion, caste or belief. We aim at discussing the points put forth in the movie and owe no disrespect for any religion. We beg pardon if anything is found objectionable and request to bring in our notice so that we can act accordingly.
This Movie is about a professor who teaches History in the college and makes many friends like a psychologist, a Christian literal, an Anthropologist, an Archeologist and a student. The actor claims about being 14000yrs. Old and still has no signs of aging after being 35 yrs old. All the friends try to prove his point wrong by every logic possible but still are helpless infront of every answer he gives them. Among these conversations lie very interesting discussions which could gave us thoughts to ponder about.
This Movie takes us to the verge of breaking our psychological barriers that we guard through our scientific knowledge and experiences.
There is a point the actor makes in the movie in which he confesses that he is “The Jesus”. The people sitting there are astonished by this and find it profaning their religion and try to prove him wrong by verifying why was he called Jesus if he says his name is John. He tells that he spoke his name as John but due to various dialects and pronunciation differences it went ahead to be called as Jesus. He used the medication techniques he learnt from India to cure people which were treated as miracles and all the truth just snowballed into a massive false. The simple message he gave about love and affection among the people and to care for others turned into a religion that millions of people practice but over the time shadowed the very virtue he wanted to impart which was: To live in harmony with each other.
This, we can see is an irony, the good deeds he did to increase affection among the people turned into the religion which increases differences between the people.
It may not be what the religion speaks of but the very thought of being the most supreme religion gives all the holy wars that turn into brutal wars killing thousands innocent people which are then justified as the Divine order from God which atleast in perspective of the movie nowhere exists.
This story may be just an imagination of the Director, but still unfolds the very basics of human mind.
We just don’t let the things be as they are. No one just narrates what he/she feel, they either add things up or curtail things down and start a chain reaction of additions or alterations which completely transform the truth.
The actor in the movie confesses that he is Jesus but he has nothing to do with Old Testament, there is nothing holy in his immortalness, it’s just a metabolical miracle.
We can very well make out that he is talking about that old testament, the fallacies of which led to the death of Copernicus ( The Mathematician) In Old Testament it was written that the Earth is flat, when Copernicus advocated the fact that the Earth was spherical he was regarded as a person with unchristian thoughts and was hanged and the same was even tried with Galileo.
In the same way, the various characters in the movie disagree with the hero. It just shows us how we fear the fact that whatever we know and believe can be a myth and when all our beliefs and values just shatter like a castle of cards, we try to defend it inappropriately. The characters in the movie cried, spitted out abusive words and even try to kill the hero because he was shattering their very beliefs which they were growing ever since their birth.
I can remember that in Bible it is told to behave with others as we want them to behave with us. This is the simple message every religion, holy book tries to give us. This is what was imparted by all the religious and spiritual gurus/leaders. But along with the time the major part that is constructed/destructed by the intermediate priests and clergies have made the overall concept so complex which easily confuses the person and prevents him from having absolute belief on his religion and professes superstition and blind faith.

Learning from my Business Ethics Session
The Knowns and Unknowns
As we know,
There are known knowns.
There are things we know we know.
We also know
There are known unknowns.
That is to say
We know there are some things
We do not know.
There are unknown unknowns,
The ones we don’t know
We don’t know
But there are also unknown knowns,
The ones we don't know
We know.
Among so many interesting topics discussed during the class sessions the one which I found most interesting and meaningful to me is “we don't know what we know”
Most of the time, when I was in sad mood I used to think in a very negative nod and always used to curse myself saying “I am a useless person, I don’t know anything”. But after the session in which we discussed about the topic “we don’t know what we know”, I turned back the pages of my life and found so many moments where I came to know that actually I was unaware of the immense potential present inside me.
One of the moments which I revisited was the incidence which took place in my school life. The incidence was like this - I went to the school with my friends for sports practice. After doing my Javelin throw’s practice, I was waiting for my friends, as they were practicing for long jump. While I was watching them practicing, one of my friend said to me – “why you are sitting here? You should also join us”. I replied to her that I don’t know how to do long jump. She said to me that you should first try it once and then you can improve upon it. “It doesn’t matter whether you jump good or bad we are just practicing here”. Hearing this I went in a queue and made an attempt for long jump. And surprisingly I jumped much better than all the others practicing there. Through this incidence I came to know that I was unaware of the fact that I know how to perform long jump. The simple attempt I gave for the long jump opened a box full of opportunity that which in turn gave me the chance to appear at the district level and win medals at the school level which at last resulted in me winning the school championship.
Like this incidence, there are many instances of which I haven’t thought of earlier but now I am able to weigh my potential. I came to know that each person is gifted with equal potential; the difference is that some are able to find it and others simply not.
From that session onwards, my thinking about myself has changed. Now, I know myself better. Thanks to sir, with the help of whom I got a life long lesson.

Finance terms: Integrations
Vertical Integration
When a company expands its business into areas that are at different points of the same production path.
Example:
A car company that expands into tire manufacturing would be an example of vertical integration. A company such as this is often referred to as vertically integrated.
Horizontal Integration
When a company expands its business into different products that are similar to current lines.
Example:
A hot dog vendor expanding into selling hamburgers would be an an example of horizontal integration. Compare this to vertical integration.
Backward Integration
A form of vertical integration that involves the purchase of suppliers in order to reduce dependency.
A good example would be if a bakery business bought a wheat farm in order to reduce the risk associated with the dependency on flour.
Forward Integration
A business strategy that involves a form of vertical integration whereby activities are expanded to include control of the direct distribution of its products.
A good example of forward integration is when a farmer sells his/her crops at the local market rather than to a distribution center.

Looking For Your Face
From the beginning of my life
I have been looking for your face
but today I have seen it
...
Today I have seen
the charm, the beauty,
the unfathomable grace
of the face
that I was looking for
Today I have found you
and those who laughed
and scorned me yesterday
are sorry that they were not looking
as I did
I am bewildered by the magnificence
of your beauty
and wish to see you
with a hundred eyes
My heart has burned with passion
and has searched forever
for this wondrous beauty
that I now behold
I am ashamed
to call this love human
and afraid of God
to call it divine
Your fragrant breath
like the morning breeze
has come to the stillness of the garden
You have breathed new life into me
I have become your sunshine
and also your shadowa
My soul is screaming in ecstasy
Every fiber of my being
is in love with you
Your effulgence
has lit a fire in my heart
for me
the earth and sky
My arrow of love
has arrived at the target
I am in the house of mercy
and my heart
is a place of prayer

Woman Keeping Secrets
Jeeto complained to her friend Preeto
"She told me that you told her the secret I told you not to tell her."
"Well," replied Preeto in a hurt tone, "I told her not to tell you I told her."
"Oh dear!" sighed Jeeto. "Well, don't tell her I told you that she told me."
Cowboy problems
The cowboy lay sprawled across three entire seats in the posh Amarillo theatre. When the usher came by and noticed this he whispered to the cowboy, "Sorry, sir, but you're only allowed one seat." The cowboy groaned but didn't budge. The usher became more impatient. "Sir, if you don't get up from there, I'm going to have to call the manager. The cowboy just groaned.
The usher marched briskly back up the aisle. In a moment he returned with the manager. Together the two of them tried repeatedly to move the cowboy, but with no success. Finally, they summoned the police. The cop surveyed the situation briefly then asked, "All right buddy, what's you're name?"
"Rambo," the cowboy moaned.
"Where ya from, Rambo?"
With pain in his voice Rambo replied.... "The balcony."
Crossing a Red Light
In the traffic court a young lady was brought before the judge to answer for a ticket given her for driving through a red light.
She explained to his honor that she was a school teacher and requested an immediate disposal of her case so she could get to the school on time.
A wild gleam came into the judge's eyes.
"You're a school teacher, eh?" he said. "Madam, I shall realize my lifelong ambition. I've waited years to have a school teacher in this court. Now sit down at that table and write 'I will not drive through red lights' 500 times!
Age that matters.
Father to son: Do you know how Mr.Jawaharlal Nehru was reading at your age, day and night?
Son: I do not know how he was studying at my age, but I know he was a prime minister at your age.
Performance Appraisal Report
Attention: Human Resources
Hemant Sharma, my assistant programmer, can always be found
hard at work in his cubicle. Hemant works independently, without
wasting company time talking to colleagues. Hemant never
thinks twice about assisting fellow employees, and he always
finishes given assignments on time. Often Hemant takes extended
measures to complete his work, sometimes skipping
coffee breaks. Hemant is an individual who has absolutely no
vanity in spite of his high accomplishments and profound
knowledge in his field. I firmly believe that Hemant can be
classed as a high-calibre employee, the type which cannot be
dispensed with. Consequently, I duly recommend that Hemant be
promoted to executive management, and a proposal will be
executed as soon as possible.

Project Leader

Appraisal.........
APPRAISAL
Appraisal ke naam par ek lambi aah bharte hain,
chaliye ab hum is "dukhad" kahani ki shuruat karte hain,
hamehsa ki tarah 10 baje thumakte hue office aya,
11 baje tak nashta kiya aur barah baje tak mail hi padh paya,
hamesha ki tarah aaj bhi mujhe alas aa raha tha,
aur mera PM mujhe tirchi nigaho se dekh-dekh gussa raha tha,
main bade concentration ke sath ek "Careful" mail padh raha tha,
tabhi dekha mere PM ke naam ka new mail kone main blink kar raha tha,
is mail ki amad se itna ghabara raha tha,
ki CLTR + F4 ki jagah shift + F5 daba rah tha,
phir koi trainig attend karni hogi, ye kya bakwas hai,
kya reply maim likh dun ki mere mailbox ka upwas hai ?
maine aankhen band ki aur 10 bar "om" "om" bola,
aur pranam karte hue maine wo mail khola,
PM ke is mail main ek ajeeb sa sukoon aur bholapan hai,
likha hai bhaiyon appraisal letters aa gaye,ab to one-to-one hai,
mujhe lag rah tha vb ke environment pe unix ka code likh diya ho kisi ne,
dil aise dhadak raha tha jaise baar baar dil pe double click kiya ho kisi ne,
man main aise bure bure khayal aa rahe the,
upar se kuch log mere "de-appraisal" ki gandi affvah uda rahe the,
appraisal aise aya jaise India main Michael Jackson aya ho,
jaise Indian football team ne ,Manchester United ko haraya ho,
PM ko letter late dekh har koi use dekhta jata hai,
jaise mallika ke kisi naye gane ko dekha jata hai,
akhir wo waqt aya,
PM ne ek ek kar sabko ander bulaya,
jo bhi ander jata hansta hua jata,
jo bahar ata , murjhaya hua ata,
jo bhi ander jata, sabko dekhte hue jata,
jaise hi bahar ata , sabse mooh chupata,
bahar aa kar insaan sambhal bhi nahi pata hai,
ki "kitna hua kitna mila" har koi uspe toot jata hai,
aisa lagta hai wo romm nahi "time machine" ho jo sabke ander leti ho,
aur "good time" se utha kar "bad time" main lakar chod deti ho,
kisi ko appraisal main 2000 rupaye mile the, main uski hansi uda raha tha,
tabhi maine dekha mera PM ishare se mujhe inder bula raha tha,
main confidence se utha aur age kadam badhaya,
tabhi meri belt ka buckle toot ke nikal aya,
meri halat to abhi se hi buri ho gayi,
sala izzat utarna to yahi se shuru ho gayi,
main ander pahuncha aur PM ne mujhe bithaya,
usne mera letter padha aur wo hansi rok na paya,
wo hansne laga aur hansta hi chala gaya,
use yaron hansi ka thaska a gaya,
wo itna hansa ki use ansu aa gaye,
mere appraisal digits use itne bha gaye,
jaise hi usne appraisal letter meri taraf badhaya,
meri ankhon ke age ghanghor andhera chaya,
mujhe laga jaise meri dil ki deewar ko kisi ne gobar se pota hai,
are yaar "bees rupaye" ? ye bhi koi increment hota hai ?
ye software indusrty hai akhada nahi hai,
ye "SALARY INCREMENT" hai , Dadar ane-jane ka bhada nahi hai,
meri charon taraf kali ghata chayi,
tabhi mere PM ki soothing awaz ayi,
tum soch rahe hoge ke companuy mgmt ka dimag phir gaya hai,
par beta hum kya karen , dollar ka bhav 2 rupaye jo gir gaya hai ,
par phir bhi mujhe lagta hai, ye letter fake hai,
mujhe to lagta hai ye printing mistake hai,
tum HR main jao,
aur ye confirm karke ao,
bhai HR main jane ke liye taiyyar hona padta hai,
wahi to aisi jagah hai jahan sunder ladkiyon se pala padta hai,
shitt!! jahan "Ronak" baith ti hai, aaj whan baitha "Aftab" hai,
main samajh gaya beta, aaj apna badluck hi kharab hai,
usne mera letter khola,
aur khush ho ke bola,
wo bola sir aap ke liye khushkhabri hai,
aap ke letter ne "Printing mistake" pakdi hai,
maine kaha boss ab der na lagayen ,
aur mujhe mera actual amount batayen,
sorry sir ye mistake just by accident hai,
bees rupaye nahi , do rupaye aap ka increment hai,
main kya karun aap ko ye batete hue mera dil ro raha hai,
par kya karen dollar ka bhav bhi to kam ho raha hai,
main bas wahan khada tha ,kuch samajh nahi aa raha tha,
mujhse zyada increment to security wala pa raha tah,
maine khud ko sambhala, khud ko uthaya ,
main lauta aur seedhe PM ke pass aya,
main seedha uske cabin gaya aur darwaza khola,
is se pehle ki wo bole, main hi us se bola,
sir ye paise wapis le lijiye, baat karna fizool hai,
main gareeb hun, par bheekh nahi leta ye mera usool hai,
doston ek ant main ek shayari --
"appraisal aisa laddu hai ,jise khane ka har kisi ka khwab hota hai,
par ek bar koi ise kha le , to bada bhayankar julaab hota hai,"

New symbol for its currency rupee
India approves new symbol for its currency rupee
The Indian federal Cabinet on Thursday approved the new symbol for the Indian rupee
The Indian Cabinet on Thursday approved the new symbol for the Indian rupee – an amalgam of the Devnagiri 'Ra' and the Roman capital 'R' without the stem.
The symbol, designed by Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) postgraduate D. Udaya Kumar, was selected from among five shortlisted symbols before the Cabinet, Information and Broadcasting minister Ambika Soni said after the cabinet meeting. "It is just a symbol," she told reporters.
For Indians used to seeing the dollar symbol on the keyboard, this will be a welcome change. It will be just a matter of a few months for India's new rupee symbol to be a part of the software code to be easily accessible to users across the world, according to technology vendors.
CLEAN YOUR KIDNEYS IN LESS THAN Rs 1.00
Years pass by and our kidneys are filtering the blood by removing salt, poison and any unwanted entering our body. With time, the salt accumulates and this needs to undergo cleaning treatments and how are we going to overcome this?
· It is very easy, first take a bunch of parsley (MALLI Leaves) KOTHIMBIR (DHANIYA) and wash it clean.
· Then cut it in small pieces and put it in a pot and pour clean water and boil it for ten minutes, let it cool down, then filter it, pour in a clean bottle and keep it inside refrigerator to cool.
· Drink one glass daily and you will notice all salt and other accumulated poison coming out of your kidney by urination also you will be able to notice the difference which you never felt before.
Parsley is known as best cleaning treatment for kidneys and it is natural!

Stock Valuation
Preferred Stock Preferred stock is somewhat like a bond. They pay the same equal dividends forever.
Common Stock Common stock represents ownership in the company. Sometimes there are dividends, sometimes not.
What is the value of Preferred Stock?
This is easy. Preferred stock is basically a perpetuity.
What is the value of Common Stock?
This is not easy. This is a mess. Think about it. What is the value of a share of stock in a specific company? In one sense it is the price the stock trades at. Both the buyer and seller agree to exchange the stock at that price.
We assume that they are both rational people and both know something about the company and its future plans and profit potential. So, yes, that is one method: check the price of the stock in the paper or on the internet. But that's pretty darn easy. It's not really finance. It's more like reading. And I don't know if you realize this or not, but they don't give Nobel Prizes for reading. So there are other ways of doing stock valuation too.
The Gordon Growth Formula, also known as The Constant Growth Formula assumes that a company grows at a constant rate forever. This, by the way, is impossible. I mean, it can't grow forever. You know, if a company doubles in size every 5 years, pretty soon every single person in the world is their customer and then they can't grow at that rate anymore. (because the world population isn't doubling ever 5 years).
BUT, if we go ahead and assume that a company has a constant growth rate, we can use the following formula to get its value.
Constant Growth Formula Po = D 1 / ( Ks - G )
Po = Price
D1 = The next dividend. D1 = D0 (1 + G)
Ks = Rate of Return
G = Growth Rate
What is all this D1 and D0 stuff ?
D1 is the next dividend
D0 is the last dividend
Well we are assuming that the company has constant growth, right. So we take the last divided, multiply it by the growth rate and we can get the next dividend.
Example
Last years dividend = $ 1.00
Growth Rate = 5%
Rate of Return = 10%
First figure out D1.
D1 = D0 (1 + G)
D1 = $1.00 ( 1 + .05)
D1 = $1.00 (1.05)
D1 = $1.05
Next us the formula.
Po = D 1 / ( Ks - G )
Po = $1.05 / (10% - 5%)
Po = $1.05 / 5%
Po = $21.00
So, if we want to get a 10% rate of return on our money, and we assume that the company will grow forever at 5% per year, then we would be willing to pay $21.00 for this stock.

Bond Valuation
Bond When a company (or government) borrows money from the public or banks (bondholders) and agrees to pay it back later
Par Value The amount of money that the company borrows. Usually it is $1,000.
Coupon Payments This is like interest. The company makes regular payments to the bondholders, like every 6 months or every year.
Indenture The legal stuff. A written agreement between the company and the bond holder. They talk about how much the coupon payments will be, and when the money (par value) will be paid back to the bondholder.
Maturity Date Date when the company pays the par value back to the bondholder.
Market Interest Rate This changes everyday.
The thing about bonds is that the interest rate (coupon payments) is fixed. It doesn't change. And bonds last a long time. Like 10 years or whatever. So in the meantime, the market interest rate (the interest rates in general) go up and down. OK, well, if the coupon payments are for 10% and then the market interest rates fall from 10% to 8%, then that bond at 10% is valuable, right. It is paying 10% while the overall interest rate is only 8%. Exactly how much is it worth? You mean 'what is the present value of a bond?'
The Present Value of a Bond = The Present Value of the Coupon Payments (an annuity) + The Present Value of the Par Value (time value of money)
Example
Par Value = $ 1,000
Maturity Date is in 5 years
Annual Coupon Payments of $100, which is 10%
Market Interest rate of 8%
The Present Value of the Coupon Payments (an annuity) = $399.27
The Present Value of the Par Value (time value of money) =$680.58
The Present Value of a Bond = $ 399.27 + $ 680.58 = $1,079.86

Kinds of Interest Rates
Let's say I give you a credit card and the interest rate on the card is 3% per month. What is the annual rate that you are actually charged?? 36%?? Well, no. It's actually 42.57%.
Nominal Rate Nominal means "in name only". This is sometimes called the quoted rate.
Periodic Rate The amount of interest you are charged each period, like every month.
Effective Annual Rate The rate that you actually get charged on an annual basis. Remember you are paying interest on interest.
In the example
The Nominal Rate is 36%.
The Periodic Rate is 3% (you are charged 3% interest on your balance every month)
The Effective Annual Rate is 42.57%
Nominal Rate = Periodic Rate X Number of Compounding Periods
Effective Annual Rate = (1+ i / m)m -1
m = the number of compounding periods
i = the nominal interest rate
O.K., so let's try the example again.
Effective Annual Rate = (1+ i / m)m -1
Effective Annual Rate = ( 1 + .36 / 12 )12 -1
Effective Annual Rate = (1.03)12 - 1
Effective Annual Rate = (1.4257) -1
Effective Annual Rate = .4257
Effective Annual Rate = 42.57 %
Nominal Rate Nominal means "in name only". This is sometimes called the quoted rate.

Effective Annual Rate = 42.57 %
Perpetuities
Perpetuities - are equal payments made regularly, like every month or every year, that go on forever.
You are rich. (Yes, but are you really happy?) You want to start the YOUR NAME HERE Scholarship at your university. Every year, some student will receive a $1000 scholarship. You're paying for it. Even after you, your kids and your grandkids are dead, you are still paying for it. Forever.
The question is....How much money will it cost you. In today's dollars. What is the present value of this perpetuity. (Hint: starting now and going on forever and ever, you assume the interest rate at your bank is going to be 3%).
PV (of a perpetuity) = payment / interest rate
Every year the interest you earn is used to pay for the scholarship. The principal in your bank account doesn't really change year to year.
PV (of a perpetuity) = payment / interest rate
PV = $ 1000 / .03
PV = $ 33,333
So, you put $ 33,333 into the bank. Each year the money earns $1000 interest. That interest becomes the scholarship.

The Time Value of Money
Present Value How much you got now.
Future Value How much what you got now grows to when compounded at a given rate
I give you 100 dollars. You take it to the bank. They will give you 10% interest per year for 2 year.
The Present Value = $ 100
Future Value = $121.
FV= PV (1 + i )N
FV = Future Value
PV = Present Value
i = the interest rate per period
n= the number of compounding periods

Understanding Basic Finance Terms
If you are like many, you don't always understand what people are talking about when it comes to loans. Without understanding the basic terminology when it comes to loans you just aren't setting yourself up right to make an educated decision when it comes to applying for a loan.

Some Simple yet important terms
written down value (WDV)
Net book value of an asset computed by deducting the accumulated depreciation or amortization from the value shown in the account books (the book value).
Operating Expense or "OPEX"
A category of expenditure that a business incurs as a result of performing its normal business operations.For example, the payment of employees' wages and funds allocated toward research and development are operating expenses.
Operating Revenue
Income derived from sources related to a company's everyday business operations. For example, in the case of a retail business, inventory sales generate operating revenue, whereas the sale of a warehouse does not. Instead, the latter sale is considered to be an unexpected, or "one-time", event.
Also referred to as "regular revenue".
Operating Profit
The profit earned from a firm's normal core business operations. This value does not include any profit earned from the firm's investments.
Also known as "earnings before interest and tax" (EBIT).
Calculated as:
Operating Profit = Operating Revenue - Operating Expense
Substance over form:
When an entity practice the Substance Over Form, it means that the financial statements reflect the financial reality of the entity (Substance) rather than the legal form of the transactions and events(Form) which underlie them.To put it very simply: if it is a goat but it was disguised in a legal form to look like a dog, Substance Over Form would prevail to reinstate that it is a goat and not a dog!
To be able to differentiate Substance Over Form, we need to be vigilant, have very good inner knowledge of the company’s operation and takes a more investigative in-depth approach so as to seek further evidence or proof. This is because normally these types of events or transactions are often quite complex. These events or transactions happen just around the accounting year ended. (balance sheet date)
We have seen many cases whereby many accounting fraud occur as a result of this lack of Substance Over Form.
Cases like Enron and Computer Associate are describe below:
Examples:Exchanging revenue/revenue swap:
In the Computer Associate case, the CEO of the company swap or exchange revenue with another company. What it did was CSA purchased a certain software/service from the company A and in turn company A also purchased from CSA. Its look like a sale and it being recognized as revenues in the Income Statement
In the Enron’s case we have:
Enron group’s use of over 3000 Special Purpose Entities (SPEs) structured in such a way as to enable the company to avoid including extensive debt in the consolidated financial statements of the group.
Other examples like:-
Company itself fund its own revenue
An outright purchase of capital equipment, whereas in fact the substance of the transactions is a lease of (or perhaps an option to purchase) the equipment.
Accrued and deffered cost:-
Accrued costs are costs for services or materials received, but for which payment has not been made. Example - you order 1600 cubic yards of concrete. It is delivered to your site in 16 weekly increments of 100 cubic yards. You receive a bill at the end of the 16 weeks. The accrued cost reflects the cost of concrete delivered in a reporting period prior to receiving the bill. This is money that should be set aside (and costs to balance against earned value for the material).
Deferred cost are for services or materials not yet received, but for which payment has been made. Example - you purchase a plane ticket 6 weeks before a planned trip. The cost is incurred, but reporting may be deferred until the trip is made and value is earned.
Difference b/w prepaid and deffered expenses:-
prepaid expenses are those which we pay in advance! like rent of a building , its a prepaid expense . we first pay the rent and then use the building whenever we need.
deffered expenses are those which have been accumulated and are not paid yet. for example if we do not pay the rent of the building for 5 months , so it has been deffered means accumulated!
A prepaid expense usually relates to a specific time frame, like pre-paying rent as mentioned above. Whereas a deferred expense may not have a specific time frame in which to be recognized. It might even be a partial expense which will continue to increase (whether actually paid or not) until the time comes when it will be amortized. An example might be costs associated with the acquisution of a business or product line. Those costs might continue to accrue as deferred expenses for months (or longer) until the transaction is complete and revenues begin to flow.
Gross and Net
Gross is the profit from the transaction without deduction. Net is the profit from the transaction after deducting cost of goods and cost of the sale (manpower, taxes, rent, etc.)
Net book value of an asset computed by deducting the accumulated depreciation or amortization from the value shown in the account books (the book value).
Operating Expense or "OPEX"
A category of expenditure that a business incurs as a result of performing its normal business operations.For example, the payment of employees' wages and funds allocated toward research and development are operating expenses.

Also referred to as "regular revenue".
Operating Profit
The profit earned from a firm's normal core business operations. This value does not include any profit earned from the firm's investments.
Also known as "earnings before interest and tax" (EBIT).
Calculated as:
Operating Profit = Operating Revenue - Operating Expense

This is because normally these types of events or transactions are often quite complex. These events or transactions happen just around the accounting year ended. (balance sheet date)
We have seen many cases whereby many accounting fraud occur as a result of this lack of Substance Over Form.
Cases like Enron and Computer Associate are describe below:
Examples:Exchanging revenue/revenue swap:
In the Computer Associate case, the CEO of the company swap or exchange revenue with another company. What it did was CSA purchased a certain software/service from the company A and in turn company A also purchased from CSA. Its look like a sale and it being recognized as revenues in the Income Statement
In the Enron’s case we have:
Enron group’s use of over 3000 Special Purpose Entities (SPEs) structured in such a way as to enable the company to avoid including extensive debt in the consolidated financial statements of the group.
Other examples like:-
Company itself fund its own revenue
An outright purchase of capital equipment, whereas in fact the substance of the transactions is a lease of (or perhaps an option to purchase) the equipment.
Accrued and deffered cost:-
Accrued costs are costs for services or materials received, but for which payment has not been made. Example - you order 1600 cubic yards of concrete. It is delivered to your site in 16 weekly increments of 100 cubic yards. You receive a bill at the end of the 16 weeks. The accrued cost reflects the cost of concrete delivered in a reporting period prior to receiving the bill. This is money that should be set aside (and costs to balance against earned value for the material).
Deferred cost are for services or materials not yet received, but for which payment has been made. Example - you purchase a plane ticket 6 weeks before a planned trip. The cost is incurred, but reporting may be deferred until the trip is made and value is earned.
Difference b/w prepaid and deffered expenses:-
prepaid expenses are those which we pay in advance! like rent of a building , its a prepaid expense . we first pay the rent and then use the building whenever we need.
deffered expenses are those which have been accumulated and are not paid yet. for example if we do not pay the rent of the building for 5 months , so it has been deffered means accumulated!
A prepaid expense usually relates to a specific time frame, like pre-paying rent as mentioned above. Whereas a deferred expense may not have a specific time frame in which to be recognized. It might even be a partial expense which will continue to increase (whether actually paid or not) until the time comes when it will be amortized. An example might be costs associated with the acquisution of a business or product line. Those costs might continue to accrue as deferred expenses for months (or longer) until the transaction is complete and revenues begin to flow.
Gross and Net
Gross is the profit from the transaction without deduction. Net is the profit from the transaction after deducting cost of goods and cost of the sale (manpower, taxes, rent, etc.)

Difference between amortization, depreciation and depletion
Because very few assets last forever, one of the main principles of accrual accounting requires that an asset's cost be proportionally expensed based on the time period over which the asset was used. Both depreciation and amortization (as well as depletion) are methods that are used to prorate the cost of a specific type of asset to the asset's life. It is important to mention that these methods are calculated by subtracting the asset's salvage value from its original cost.
Amortization usually refers to spreading an intangible asset's cost over that asset's useful life. For example, a patent on a piece of medical equipment usually has a life of 17 years. The cost involved with creating the medical equipment is spread out over the life of the patent, with each portion being recorded as an expense on the company's income statement.
Depreciation, on the other hand, refers to prorating a tangible asset's cost over that asset's life. For example, an office building can be used for a number of years before it becomes run down and is sold. The cost of the building is spread out over the predicted life of the building, with a portion of the cost being expensed each accounting year.
Depletion refers to the allocation of the cost of natural resources over time. For example, an oil well has a finite life before all of the oil is pumped out. Therefore, the oil well's setup costs are spread out over the predicted life of the oil well.

"Salvage Value"
The estimated value that an asset will realize upon its sale at the end of its useful life. The value is used in accounting to determine depreciation amounts and in the tax system to determine deductions. The value can be a best guess of the end value or can be determined by a regulatory body such as the IRS.
Explaination of Salvage Value
The salvage value is used in conjunction with the purchase price and accounting method to determine the amount by which an asset depreciates each period. For example, with a straight-line basis, an asset that cost $5,000 and has a salvage value of $1,000 and a useful life of five years would be depreciated at $800 ($5,000-$1,000/5 years) each year.
Within the tax system, when a person donates a car he or she receives a tax deduction. The value of this deduction depends on the salvage value of the car. This salvage value is determined to be the current fair market value that could be obtained had the car been sold on that day rather than donated.

"Amortization"
What Does Amortization Mean?
1. The paying off of debt in regular installments over a period of time.
2. The deduction of capital expenses over a specific period of time (usually over the asset's life). More specifically, this method measures the consumption of the value of intangible assets, such as a patent or a copyright.
Explaination of Amortization
Suppose XYZ Biotech spent $30 million dollars on a piece of medical equipment and that the patent on the equipment lasts 15 years, this would mean that $2 million would be recorded each year as an amortization expense.
While amortization and depreciation are often used interchangeably, technically this is an incorrect practice because amortization refers to intangible assets and depreciation refers to tangible assets.

"Accrual Accounting"
Definition: An accounting method that measures the performance and position of a company by recognizing economic events regardless of when cash transactions occur. The general idea is that economic events are recognized by matching revenues to expenses (the matching principle) at the time in which the transaction occurs rather than when payment is made (or received). This method allows the current cash inflows/outflows to be combined with future expected cash inflows/outflows to give a more accurate picture of a company's current financial condition.
Accrual accounting is considered to be the standard accounting practice for most companies, with the exception of very small operations. This method provides a more accurate picture of the company's current condition, but its relative complexity makes it more expensive to implement. This is the opposite of cash accounting, which recognizes transactions only when there is an exchange of cash.
Explaination of Accrual Accounting
The need for this method arose out of the increasing complexity of business transactions and a desire for more accurate financial information. Selling on credit and projects that provide revenue streams over a long period of time affect the company's financial condition at the point of the transaction. Therefore, it makes sense that such events should also be reflected on the financial statements during the same reporting period that these transactions occur.
For example, when a company sells a TV to a customer who uses a credit card, cash and accrual methods will view the event differently. The revenue generated by the sale of the TV will only be recognized by the cash method when the money is received by the company. If the TV is purchased on credit, this revenue might not be recognized until next month or next year.
Accrual accounting, however, says that the cash method isn't accurate because it is likely, if not certain, that the company will receive the cash at some point in the future because the sale has been made. Therefore, the accrual accounting method instead recognizes the TV sale at the point at which the customer takes ownership of the TV. Even though cash isn't yet in the bank, the sale is booked to an account known in accounting lingo as "accounts receivable," increasing the seller's revenue.

"Fair Value Definition, Relevance and measurement"
What is Fair Value? Definition.
Fair Value is an accounting term, originally defined by the SEC.
Under GAAP, the fair value of an asset is the amount at which that
asset could be bought or sold in a current transaction between
willing parties, other than in a liquidation. On the other side of
the balance sheet, the fair value of a liability is the amount at
which that liability could be incurred or settled in a current
transaction between willing parties, other than in a liquidation.
If available, a quoted market price in an active market is the best
evidence of fair value and should be used as the basis for the
measurement. If a quoted market price is not available, preparers
should make an estimate of fair value using the best information
available in the circumstances. In many circumstances, quoted market
prices are unavailable. As a result, difficulties occur when making
estimates of fair value.
Why Fair Value accounting? Relevance.
In today's dynamic and volatile markets, whether it is to buy or
sell, what people want to know is what an asset is worth today.
Accounting research supports that assertion. The FASB, after
extensive discussions, has concluded that fair value is the most
relevant measure for financial instruments. In its deliberations of
Statement 133, the FASB revisited that issue and again renewed its
commitment to eventually measuring all financial instruments at fair
value.
Fair value accounting provides more transparency than historical
cost based measurements. Maybe, if companies in the United States
and Asia had measured all financial instruments at fair value,
regulators, depositors, and investors could have achieved greater
regulatory and market discipline and avoided some of the losses that
investors and taxpayers have had to pay during previous downturns in
the economy.

Domain Knowledge
Boy was telling the story to his IT friends and trying to explain the Importance of domain knowledge....
One day my mother was out and my dad was in charge of me and my brother who is four years older than I am. I was maybe 3 and half years old and had just recovered from an accident in which my arm had been broken among other injuries.
Someone had given me a little 'tea set' as a get-well gift and it was one of my favorite toys. Daddy was in the living room engrossed in the evening news and my brother was playing nearby in the living room when I brought Daddy a little cup of 'tea', which was just water. After several cups of tea and lots of praise for such yummy tea, my Mom came home.
My Dad made her wait in the living room to watch me bring him a cup of tea, because it was 'just the cutest thing!!'
My Mom waited, and sure enough, here I come down the hall with a cup of tea for Daddy and she watches him drink it up, then she says to him, 'Did it ever occur to you that the only place that baby can reach to get water is the toilet??'
....Mothers know!!

Effects of alcohol
A professor of chemistry wanted to teach his 5th grade class a lesson about the evils of alcohol, so he produced an experiment that involved a glass of water, a glass of whiskey and two worms. “Now, class. Observe closely the worms,” said the professor putting a worm first into the water. The worm in the water writhed about, happy as a worm in water could be.
The second worm, he put into the whiskey. It writhed painfully, and quickly sank to the bottom, dead as a doornail.
“Now, what lesson can we learn from this experiment?” the professor asked.
Little Salman, who naturally sits in back, raised his hand and wisely, responded…
“Drink whiskey and you won’t get worms!”

The great Wife
A woman's husband had been slipping in and out of a coma for several months, yet she stayed by his bedside every single day. When he came to, he motioned for her to come nearer.
As she sat by him, he said, "You know what? You have been with me all through the bad times. When I got fired, you were there to support me. When my business failed, you were there. When I got shot, you were by my side. When we lost the house, you gave me support. When my health started failing, you were still by my side... You know what?"
"What dear?" She asked gently.
"I think you bring me bad luck."

Boy was telling the story to his IT friends and trying to explain the Importance of domain knowledge....
One day my mother was out and my dad was in charge of me and my brother who is four years older than I am. I was maybe 3 and half years old and had just recovered from an accident in which my arm had been broken among other injuries.
Someone had given me a little 'tea set' as a get-well gift and it was one of my favorite toys. Daddy was in the living room engrossed in the evening news and my brother was playing nearby in the living room when I brought Daddy a little cup of 'tea', which was just water. After several cups of tea and lots of praise for such yummy tea, my Mom came home.
My Dad made her wait in the living room to watch me bring him a cup of tea, because it was 'just the cutest thing!!'
My Mom waited, and sure enough, here I come down the hall with a cup of tea for Daddy and she watches him drink it up, then she says to him, 'Did it ever occur to you that the only place that baby can reach to get water is the toilet??'
....Mothers know!!
MORAL OF THE STORY:
Domain knowledge is very important!!! Else your supplier will trick you......
Effects of alcohol
A professor of chemistry wanted to teach his 5th grade class a lesson about the evils of alcohol, so he produced an experiment that involved a glass of water, a glass of whiskey and two worms. “Now, class. Observe closely the worms,” said the professor putting a worm first into the water. The worm in the water writhed about, happy as a worm in water could be.
The second worm, he put into the whiskey. It writhed painfully, and quickly sank to the bottom, dead as a doornail.
“Now, what lesson can we learn from this experiment?” the professor asked.
Little Salman, who naturally sits in back, raised his hand and wisely, responded…
“Drink whiskey and you won’t get worms!”
Getting A Better Warranty
An angry motorist went back to a garage where he'd purchased an expensive battery for his car six months earlier.
"Listen," the motorist grumbled to the owner of the garage, "when I bought that battery you said it would be the last battery my car would ever need. It died after only six months!"
"Sorry," apologized the garage owner. "I didn't think your car would last longer than that."

The great Wife
A woman's husband had been slipping in and out of a coma for several months, yet she stayed by his bedside every single day. When he came to, he motioned for her to come nearer.
As she sat by him, he said, "You know what? You have been with me all through the bad times. When I got fired, you were there to support me. When my business failed, you were there. When I got shot, you were by my side. When we lost the house, you gave me support. When my health started failing, you were still by my side... You know what?"
"What dear?" She asked gently.
"I think you bring me bad luck."

A guy was known among his friends to be very brief and to the point-he really never said too much. One day, a saleswoman promoting a certain brand of brushes knocked his door and asked to see his wife, so the guy told her that she wasn't home.
"Well," the woman said "could I please wait for her?"
"The man directed her to the drawing room and left her there for more than three hours. After feeling really worried, she called out for him and asked," May I know where your wife is?"
"She went to the cemetery," he replied.
"And when is she coming?"
"I don t really know," he said. "She s been there eleven years now,"
Guys improve over time
Two guys were sitting around talking one day. The first guy said, "Ever since we got married, my wife has tried to change me. She got me to stop drinking, smoking and running around until all hours of the night. She taught me how to dress well, enjoy the fine arts, gourmet cooking, classical music, even how to invest in the stock market."
"Sounds like you may be bitter because she has changed you so drastically, " remarked his friend.
The first guy replied, "No, I'm not bitter. Now that I'm so improved, she just isn't good enough for me."
