Down Cattle refers to cattle that are not standing and are sick or injured. There are numerous reasons why. The most common injury or sickness would require a survey. Which is the most likely reason you are in the hospital. Unhealthy cattle would most likely be sick versus injured and most likely have cancer or heart disease but this is clearly dependent upon a number of factors and require a statistical analysis.

The easiest way may be the most expensive. You can hire an auditor, usually a CPA to audit the records and determine if there are any discrepancies. Understand that there are always minor issues in any audit. Depending on the size of your business and when you began operating you could hire a new accountant to prepare the financial records to determine how they compare. This is even more expensive then an audit. There are lesser ways to check but each of the lesser ways increase the risk that you may not find an error or outright fraud. You state that this is a friend and you are concerned with the records. Why the concern? Have you taken any accounting classes or business classes. You need to determine which method is the most efficient. Clearly an audit will review some records not all but should be statistically within a range of error. Having the records created by a forensic accountant is an option if you feel there is fraud or you are concerned with the integrity of the records. All of these methods are costly. Do you have prior years records? Is there an account that looks off and others look the same or within the range of what you believe is accurate? Having a licensed accountant I am guessing is a CPA. It could be a CMA, a tax preparer. What type of license does your friend have? Is your friend honest. Just because your friends doesn’t mean someone is or is not honest or messing with the financial records. I would make certain in any business that you have internal controls in place to protect yourself from financial irregularities. This is only a staring ground. If you suspect your friend is not recording financial records then you may need new friends. Having a friend in business can also be a good way of ending your relationship. Are uyou getting a better rate. That’s not enough to use a friend as your accountant.

Overtime can be expensive by reducing your profit margins. The more efficient you are with the number workers the less overtime you will have to pay out. Depending on your business you may have Exempt employees. These are typically managerial level people that are not paid hourly and this too can reduce your overtime. If you a a product based company then forecasting the correct amount of products will reduce your overtime. Similarly a service based company can reduce overtime by having a sufficient number of employees to reduce the amount of overtime needed. You can also have a pool of part time, seasonal or even temporary workers available to keep your overtime hours down to a minimum.

This is a legal question. The amount of releief is based upon a number of factors. The type of debt taxes, secured, unsecured, the amount of income and expenses on a monthly basis left overEssentially if you qualify to file a Chapter 11 bankruptcy you take all of your assets and all of your debts go into a fictitious bankruptcy estate. You are allowed to exempt certain assets. Your debts are classified by type. Government debt-usually taxes, debts owed to employees and similar type debts have first priority.

From what I have read Click Money is a fully automated system where you trade options/stocks and are supposed to make money. There are no quick fixes in life. There are no guaranteees and they claim that you can make $16 million per year with out any expereince. Without having used the system it’s difficult to make an analysis. If it’s so easy without experience why do they need to sell it to anyone? You would probably be better if you use your time to develope your business or invest by reading and learning as much as you can on your own.

I’m an international expansion strategist who attended this year just to see what’s out there and I have to say that a lot of Alpha and Beta presenters were not prepared sufficiently for the Websummit. I want to address that here. If you are an Alpha or Beta, think of questions that investors might ask you and try to answer them beforehand. Watch several episodes of Shark Tank. These are the kinds of people walking around and if they ask you what you would do with money that they would give you, or other simple questions, and you have no answer, they will know that you aren’t ready.

You do not need permission to make brownies from the brownie company or the companies that supply the ingredients though you would need permission if you were to take a brownie with the specified ingredients in formula. You do need to create your own brownie based upon ingredients you determine. If it were an exact copy such as Kentucky fried chicken and you had the special formula that could not be used because its owned by the KFC corporation.

Determine who are qualified buyers of your product. You need this information to obtain the qualified data. Location also will impact the data. If the buyers are government or a publicly traded company then there are many sources. Publicly traded companies have to disclose a lot of data in reports as well as government reports for businesses doing business with government. As to private businesses there are sites that sell the data but the issue is reliability of the data from private sources. Depending on the potential value of a transaction you may want to hire an investigator to assist you. There is no easy answer when dealing with private entities.
