The three procedures of accounting and bookkeeping assist an individual in recognising the most effectual use of capital incomes, gauging the properties of the cost controls across their finances.

In accounting there is much to be learned, about the financial aspects of a business. In the past five weeks I have learned the importance of financial reports and how they relate to the success of an establishment. These reports may include balance sheets and income statements, which help accountants and the public grasp the overall financial condition of a company. The information in these reports is really significant to, managers, owners, employees, and investors. Managers of a business can take and deduce financial

Bulsey & Anor v State of Queensland [2015] QCA 187 signified the requirements of legal justifications when conducting unwarranted arrests, and further expresses the importance of the right to personal liberty as it is ‘the most fundamental of the human rights recognised under the common law.’ It was evident to the Judges that at least one officer held reasonable suspicion that “the suspect” had committed an indictable offence, but the lawfulness of the arrest was inevitably questioned as to whether an officer with reasonable suspicion was the arresting officer. The judgements in favour of the appellants heightens the need for officers to use their powers within the ‘confines of the law’ when ‘forcibly arrest[ing] and detaining’ a person as to preserve the right to personal liberty, for once this right is left in the power of any authority, to imprison arbitrarily whomever they suspect, ‘there would soon be an end of all other rights and immunities.’

Police officers including approximately six armed members of the “Special Emergency Response Team” forcibly entered the appellants’ (Bulsey & Anor) house. Bulsey was taken from his bed, placed on the floor, handcuffed and dragged out to the street and later charged with riotous assembly and destruction of a building. In subsequent committal proceedings, the respondent conceded it did not have a case against the first appellant. He was discharged. Bulsey (the first appellant) sued the respondent for damages for trespass to the person (assault, battery and false imprisonment). Anor (the second appellant) sued the respondent for damages for assault and false imprisonment. The trial judge dismissed the appellants’ claims with costs, with judgments in favour of the respondent.

In the R. v. Stinchcombe case, a lawyer was charged with breach of trust, theft and fraud. His former secretary was a Crown witness at the opening of the investigation. She provided relevant evidence towards the defence. Former to trial, she was interviewed by an RCMP officer and a tape‑recorded statement was taken. Far along during the progress of the trial, she again was interviewed by a police officer with a written statement taken. The defence counsel was notified of the occurrence but not of the statements. His request for a disclosure was declined. However, throughout the trial, the defence counsel acknowledge without a doubt that the witness would not be called by the Crown and required an order that the witness be called or that the Crown disclose the main statements to the defence. The trial continued and the accused was found guilty of breach of trust and fraud. Conditional stays were entered with respect to the theft counts. The

You may not know it but you also own a portion of the common land in Windrush. There are five small parcels of land that total 5.674 acres of common property that that you own 1/39th of the land in total. Meaning, you own a portion of the whole but not a specific piece of the land. If you owned 1,000 shares of a Corporation that had 10,000 shares outstanding, you couldn’t go in and claim a tenth of the business. You own a tenth of the whole. Now don’t you feel richer for that? We all own that land and we are all responsible for caring for that land. Furthermore, we all get to use that land within the rules established by the Property Owner’s Association, (POA). There is a Corporation that owns the land of which we are all voting shareholders

The Civil Liability Act 2002 (NSW) (“the Act”) has been moderately principled and extremely effective in its reforms to duty of care in negligence. In light of the facts, the main relevant area of reform in the Act has been to liability for psychiatric injury. These reforms have largely been principled in following the recommendations of the Ipp Report and common law, but have made deviations in order to better achieve the goal of reducing liability for psychiatric injury. These have been very effective changes in achieving this goal. However, the principles the Act is based on, contradict legal and normative principles, creating injustice by disentitling people and enhancing the distinctions between physical and mental injury.
