Document Summary

this is a systematic program of interrogation in medieval times. led by church but delegated out to secular authorities. The church directed it in a board way and the secular authorities implemented. it was aimed at removing heresy and wrong believes, and took more severe action against heretics. Theologically, it asserted that wrong believes were led by devil. it was associated with witch-hunting" phenomenon, which was aimed at eradicate witchcraft. Widows and women were more likely to be accused as witchcraft. The inquisition was interrogating whether they were the instrument of evil. he was a german priest and professor of theology who initiated the protestant reformation. he was initially studying law, after surviving in a thunderstorm, he became a monk. He then became a prolific writer in religion. background: many people before him had criticized the degrading church.

The General Accounting Office prepared a report showing thatmany publicly-owned companies restated their financial statementsduring the period 1997 to 2001. Of course, they did not includehappenings such as the situation reported in The Wall StreetJournal, which told its readers that Qwest Communications (whichowns one of the Bell telephone companies) had restated its priorfinancial statements four times from July 2002 to February2003.

Assume that on one of the Sunday television news programs,whether Sunday morning as in Meet the Press or Sunday evening suchas 20/20, an accounting professor was being interviewed. "Hello,professor. Tell our viewers a little about yourself." "I amProfessor Blahblah. I am a certified public accountant, I amlicensed to practice as a certified public accountant, I have anearned doctorate in accounting, and I presently teach auditing atthe university level. Sometimes the department also has me teach acourse in accounting information systems, which I teach as a way ofdesigning accounting systems to provide information to decisionmakers." "What do you think of this situation of Qwest restatingits financial statements four times in seven months?" "Oh, this isterrible. The management of Qwest had a duty to file auditedfinancial statements with the SEC, and to provide those auditedfinancial statements to each of the company's stockholders.Naturally, those financial statements were required to be truthful.The accounting firm which audited those financial statements had aduty to design its audit to assure itself that those financialstatements were free of material misstatement, whatever the cause.If Qwest restated its financial statements four times in sevenmonths, then as they say in law, res ipso loquitur, which means'the thing speaks for itself.'" In other words, the very fact thatthe company restated its financial statements four times in sevenmonths, and by material amounts each time, suggests that neithermanagement nor the auditors did what they were obligated todo."

"Thank you, Professor Blahblah. Do you think our millions ofviewers should know anything else?"

"Yes, I do. If management was making decisions based on thosewrong numbers, then management probably made some bad decisionswhich they would not have made if they would have used correctnumbers."

"Thank you very much, Professor Blahblah. Let's hope that noneof our millions of viewers was among the people who sufferedfinancially as a result of what management and the auditors did orfailed to do."

Required:

1. Does the audit firm which gave clean opinions on thoseoriginal sets of financial statements have any obligation to doanything now about those earlier audit reports? Cite theauthoritative professional literature.

2. Design an audit program for asserted and unasserted claimsagainst this client company. Cite the authoritative professionalliterature related to the claims, and show how your audit programfulfills your professional responsibilities.

Thanks

11. Tom worked for a messenger service owned by Dalton. While Tom was driving a Dalton-owned vehicle on business in Miami, he hit and injured Pedro, a pedestrian who resides in Alabama. Pedro brought a diversity action against Dalton in federal court in Florida on a theory of respondeat superior (principal-agent). Personal service was properly made, pursuant to FRCP 4(e)(2), on Dalton, a Florida resident. Dalton now wishes to implead Tom as a third-party defendant (if Dalton is held liable to Pedro, Dalton will be entitled to indemnity from Tom). Tom is a resident of Puerto Rico and lives in San Juan, a two-hour flight from Miami. Dalton caused a licensed process server to serve Tom personally at Tomâs home in San Juan. Assume that Florida has no longarm statute allowing state-court jurisdiction over any defendant who cannot be physically found with Florida. Does the Florida federal court have personal jurisdiction over Daltonâs third-party claim against Tom?

a. Yes, because Tom was a third-party defendant who was served within 100 miles of the federal courthouse.

b. No, because there is no Florida long-arm statute that would authorize state-court jurisdiction over Tom.

c. Yes, because service was properly made on Dalton within Florida, the state or district where the federal suit is pending.

d. Yes, because Pedro, Dalton, and Tom are all citizens of different states or districts.

e. None of the above

BACKGROUND

The amino acid sequence for a protein that is associated with the onset of Huntington's Disease in humans is 582 amino acids long and is provided below. This disease is autosomal dominant and results in a prolonged degeneration of nerve cells in the brain.

INSTRUCTIONS

1. For this assignment, use any method you determine most feasible (i.e. programming in MATlab, R script, Crystal Ball, Witchcraft/Hocus Pocus, etc.) to decipher the amino acid composition of this protein and answer the 15 questions associated with this protein and its associated amino acid structure.

2. You will be calculating proportions (percentages - %) for this assignment. Calculate all proportions to 1 decimal place and make sure you have rounded up or down correctly. If unsure, use a spreadsheet program such as Excel to display your proportional calculations to 1 decimal place.

3. Spelling matters (Incorrect spelling will be graded as such - incorrect).

5. Download/copy the sequence and review the questions so you can double check your numbers before proceeding through the homework.

Huntington Disease Associated Protein Amino Acid Sequence

The first amino acid below ('m') represents the amino (NH3) terminus of this protein. The last amino acid in this sequence represents the carboxy (COOH) terminus and is the very last 'c' at the bottom of this protein sequence structure. The amino acids are numbered individually across the rows (left to right) beginning from the amino terminus (#1) to the carboxy terminus (#582).

a.) a.) What is the name of the least abundant amino acid in this protein?

b.) What proportion of the total amino acids in the protein does this individual amino acid represent?

c.) What is the proportion of essential amino acids included in this protein sequence?

d.)The amino acid sequence from residues 73-85 is represented by the amino acids EEEWDEEEEEEAD, how would you generally classify this small region of the protein? Choose from: neutral, hydrophilic, hydrophobic, negatively charged, positively charged

e.)Two amino acids are present in the same proportion in this protein, which two are those?

f.)Which class of amino acids is the most abundant in this protein?

g.) What amino acid(s) is/are present at locations 572 and 582 in the Huntington Disease protein (Full Amino Acid Name(s)).
