Dylan worked for a propane gas distributor as an accounting clerk in a small Midwestern town. Last winter, his brother Mike lost his job at the machine plant. By January, temperatures were sub-zero, and Mike had run out of money. Dylan saw that Mike’s account was overdue, and he knew Mike needed another delivery to heat his home. He decided to credit Mike’s account and debit the balance to the parts inventory because he knew the parts manager, the owner’s son, was incompetent and would never notice the extra entry. Months went by, and Dylan repeated the process until an auditor ran across the charges by chance. When the owner fired Dylan, he said, “If you had only come to me and told me about Mike’s situation, we could have worked something out.”

Geek Chic Company provides computer repair services for the community. Obie Won’s computer was not working, and he called Geek Chic for a home repair visit. Geek Chic Company’s technician arrived at 2:00 pm to begin work. By 4:00 pm, the problem was diagnosed as a failed circuit board. Unfortunately, the technician did not have a new circuit board in the truck because the technician’s previous customer had the same problem and a board was used on that visit. Replacement boards were available back at Geek Chic Company’s shop. Therefore, the technician drove back to the shop to retrieve a replacement board. From 4:00 to 5:00 pm, Geek Chic Company’s technician drove the round trip to retrieve the replacement board from the shop.At 5:00 pm, the technician was back on the job at Obie’s home. The replacement procedure is somewhat complex because a variety of tests must be performed once the board is installed. The job was completed at 6:00 pm.

- Barbara was a regular shopper at Egeeay Supermarket, which was part of a large nationwide supermarket chain. She was there at least once a week and sometimes more often if the specials were really good. When Barbara was there this week, she slipped on some grapes in the pet-food section in aisle 3, slipping and falling, and breaking her ankle. The store manager was not sure how the grapes got there or how long they had been there, but store policy was to do checks every 15 minutes of the floor in the fruit section. The store manager indicated that there were a number of spillages every week in the green grocery section of the store.

Both cranes were to act simultaneously in lifting a 9- ton machine. The other operator was busy elsewhere, so Varney, who was in a hurry, tried to lift the machine with his crane alone.

Has the worker a valid cause of action against Varney?arrow_forward

While she was originally asked to provide pro bono auditing help, these days she only provides hands-on care for abandoned and rescued puppies. One Saturday the shelter's director tells Linda that the puppies seem very agitated, and adds, "It's almost like they know what dire financial straits we are in right now and they are worried about landing back on the streets again." Linda senses an opportunity, and calls a friend she thinks might be interested in purchasing the shelter. She tells her friend, "I bet you can get the place for well under market value, since the owner is really stressed and needs to sell quickly." Which of the following statements is true?

The night before, while entering the hotel, she had noticed that the steps were dangerous, and although she knew from her earlier stays at the hotel that another exit was available, she chose that morning to leave via the dangerous steps. The hotel was aware of the hazard, as one of the other guests who had fallen that night had reported his accident to the desk clerk then on duty. Still, the hotel did not place cautionary signs on the steps to warn of the danger, and they were not roped off or otherwise excluded from use. Hunn brought an action against the hotel for injuries she sustained as a result of her fall. Should she recover? Explain.arrow_forward
- Stephanie Baskill, an unemployed accounting clerk, lives one block from Cleaver Manufacturing Company. While walking her dog last year, she noticed some ERP manuals in the dumpsters. Curious, she took the manuals home with her. She found that the documentation in the manual was dated 2 months previous, so she thought that the information must be fairly current. Over the next month,Stephanie continued to collect all types of manuals from the dumpster during her dog-walking excursions. Cleaver Manufacturing Company was apparently updating all of its documentation manuals and placing them online.Eventually, Stephanie found manuals about critical inventory reorder formulas, the billing system, the sales order system, the payables system, and the operating system.

They want to start doing snow removal during the winter season because they practically don't have any yards to maintain. The twins are trying to determine how much equipment they need to purchase. The twins plan to do most of the work themselves and then hire some part-time workers on an individual job basis to help out. The twins gathered some data on past weather. Based on the information, they predict that there will be six big snowstorms in the coming winter. Most of their clients want the snow removed no more than two days after the snow stops falling. If the twins work for 10 hours a day, they can remove the snow from the driveway of a home in about 1 hour. However, for commercial parking lots and public sidewalks, it will take 4 hours. The variable cost per job is $12 for home driveways and $47 for commercial parking lots. The twins estimated that they will have no more than 40 homeowners and 25 businesses who would like…arrow_forward
