Also “in terms of interpretation, the long-term solvency ratio should be at least 1.0 but as a general rule, the higher the ratio the better the organization is doing” (Martin, 2001). The ratio for 2002, 2003 and 2004 is less than the average which means that they have nothing to liquidate. If the ratio of a nonprofit organization is less than 1.0, the organizations financial feasibility might be in question. The organization in 2002, 2003 and 2004 is doing pretty good. There is no question…
The current ratio is a very commonly used ratio that is useful for showing a company’s ability to cover its short-term obligations with its readily available assets. The more current assets the firm has in comparison to its current liabilities, the less of a risk that firm runs of defaulting on these payments when they come due. The actual ratio supposes that all current liabilities must be paid off immediately with the balance of current assets at that time. For this reason, it is very much…
Mandatory Nurse Staffing Ratios Policy Problem Nurse staffing ratios have been the center of countless studies and debates. Research has shown that better nurse staffing ratios decrease patient and nurse injuries, poor patient outcomes, and sentinel events. Multiple factors must be taken into account when forming appropriate patient assignments. The largest of those factors being the increase in patient acuity and decrease in nursing staff. “When health care employers fail to recognize the…
safe, effective patient care. When the nurse to patient ratio is at a manageable level, studies indicate a healthier outcome for patients. However, when the ratio is not at a manageable level patient and nurses suffer the consequences. Because nurse to patient ratio has such a large impact on the health of both the patient and the nurse, a public policy is appropriate for the nurse to patient ratio to establish minimum nurse to patient ratio. This can be done by requiring a specific number or by…
courts, hence, the ratio of past cases are legally binding on subsequent cases. This concept is called precedent and it is designed to give effect to the fact that the English law to some large extent is based on case law, and that case laws are not mere materials which a judge takes into consideration when making a decision on a particular case. Binding precedents are obtained from the legal reasoning for the decision of the court, which is called the ratio decidendi. Ratio Decidendi, as…
Strontium Isotope ratios are used in archaeology to track human migration.86Sr abundance is constant, but 87Sr forms through decay of 87Rb in rock. Rock age and initial Rb/Sr ratios vary geographically, making87Sr/86Sr a location tracer. Strontium, weathered from bedrock into groundwater then taken up by flora and fauna, can substitute for Ca in tooth enamel. Enamel only forms during childhood, specifically the early first and second molars mineralize during early childhood; the third molar…
The quick ratio as quick assets/ current liabilities this ratio is more conservative than the current and it shows that Amazon will be able to cover each $1 have by $ 0.82. This percentage consider not the favor of the company as it supposes to be at least each $1 in the company be covered by $1 too. And as for cash ratio cash+ cash equivalents + invested funds/ current liabilities. Also the Cash Ratio measure the ability of Amazon to repay the debtor in short term. This ratio refines the…
1) What do you think is the ideal/fairest CEO-to-Cashier ratio pay ratio? I think that the proper ratio should be 20-to-1, because it would help to narrow the gap between the leaders and employees and it would also help to increase employee morale. CEO pay has increased while employee salaries either declined or stayed the same. Not to play the devils’ advocate, but don’t forget that the large salary of the CEO only serves as a bribe by the shareholders to make the CEO feel that it is ok to cook…
Description of the Activity: I am doing my clinical rotation on 5 West, which is an Oncology/ Infection disease Medical- Surgical floor. Just like any other Med Surgical floor the staff to patient ratio is not ideal. Nurses take up to seven patients and the patient care techs (PCT) take 10 to 15 patients. It gets hard for the staff to provide patients with the best care possible when they are so short staffed. This past week I was responsible for two of my own patients while helping my nurse,…
was going to eat and also made me realize how much junk I eat. I always thought that I ate pretty healthy, but after doing this journal I realized that it really is not that way. I found out that the ratio of healthy food to junk food is more of a thirty to seventy ration than the sixty to forty ratio I believed I was eating. Now whenever I go the cafeteria I focus more on choosing the healthier foods than the normal burger, or pizza, and fries. I know have more fruit and vegetables and…
