- What was important about RAND Report R-609?arrow_forwardFred Chin, CEO of sequential label and supply, leaned back in his leather chair and propped his feet up on the long mahogany table in the conference room where the SLS Board of Directors had just adjourned their quarterly meeting.“What do you think about our computer security problem?” he asked Gladys Williams, the company’s chief information officer, or CIO. He was referring to last month’s outbreak of a malicious worm on the company’s computer network. Gladys replied, “I think we have a real problem, and we need to put together a real solution, not just a quick patch like the last time.” Eighteen months ago, the network had been infected by an employee’s personal USB drive. To prevent this from happening again, all users in the company were banned from using USB drives. Fred wasn’t convinced. “Can’t we just add another thousand dollars to the next training budget?” Gladys shook her head. “You’ve known for some time now that this business runs on technology.

- the requirements for TAL Distributors have changed. A number and a name now identify each storehouse. Units of each item may be stored in multiple storehouses, and it is important to know precisely how many items are stored in each storehouse. In addition, TAL Distributors now want to manage information about the suppliers from which it purchases items. For each item, TAL Distributors needs to know the number and name of each supplier as well as the expected lead time for delivering each item. (Lead time is the amount of time a supplier is expected to take to deliver the item after TAL Distributors has ordered it.) Each item can have many suppliers, and each supplier can supply many items. Using this information, convert the following unnormalized relation to fourth normal form:arrow_forwardIn the office of Drano Plumbing, Damon Davis was finishing off some paperwork. A net profit of $50,000 was predicted by him. The Balance Sheet showed a deficit of $400,000 and a credit of $300,000 when he added up the two columns. So, what do you think caused the findings to be so different? What more might he check to see whether that's the issue, if this wasn't the cause?arrow_forwardThe SEC charged Midisoft Corporation with overstatingrevenue in the amount of $458,000. The overstatementoccurred because the company recorded sales for products that had been shipped but, at the time of shipment,the company had no reasonable expectation that theywould be paid for the products. In the end, the companyaccepted most of the shipped product as sales returns.Apparently, Midisoft’s distribution agreements allowed the distributor the opportunity to return productto Midisoft for credit whenever the distributor believedthe product was unable to be sold. In FY 1994, theaccounting personnel submitted a proposed allowancefor future returns that was too low given the returnsMidisoft received in early 1995. Furthermore, management knew the exact amount of returns affecting FY1994 prior to the time when the independent auditorsfinished their 1994 audit. If Midisoft had accuratelyrevised the allowance for sales returns, the amount ofnet revenue reported for FY 1994 would have been…arrow_forward
