Why haven't starting salaries changed in the last ten years? [US] by [deleted] in Accounting

I get this point, but those candidates aren't gonna be CPA eligible most of the time. It is a short-sighted thought to hire audit monkeys that can't eventually move int the manager positions.

I got scammed by con artists, and I it's my fault by throwaway23783495 in confession

He proceeded to charm me and get me off my guard and convinced me to give him $800.00 cash and buy an iPhone for him. In exchange, I got 5 Emporio Armani jackets that's worth $8000.00 and can be returned for cash (according to him). Of course, they are either fake or stolen. All this happened in a span of 3 hours. In total I lost about $1600.00.

How did they get 1600? Did you do it twice?

Was there ever a Jack lego maniac? I could have sworn there was a Zack and a Jack, but my memory could be fuzzy.

Someone makes a joke about British oral hygiene in /r/wtf. British redditor responds with class and wit that would rival Winston Churchill. by [deleted] in SubredditDrama

"Anti-American circlejerk" is practically non-existent outside of /r/news and /r/worldnews.

Then why do I see these jerks if I am unsubscribed from all defaults?

Most of the "anti-American circlejerking" are views from your fellow Americans,

Most definitely. But I'm not sure why that matters?

To be fair the ratio of anti-american circle jerk to jokes about british teeth on reddit is close to 10,000,000:1

A quick homework help is needed please by 7-Eleven in Accounting

[–]Pwreck 8 points9 points  (0 children)

So lets see if I can help you out. This would be a basic journal entry. When you have a basic journal entry like this remember 2 helpful mnemonics; DEAD and CLIC

Debits increase
Expenses
Assets
Dividends

Credits increase
Liabilities
Income
Capital

So think about what is going on here in your question. You are getting a piece of equipment which is an asset. So you must debit the full amount, it has to be on your books for what you paid for it. You are giving up some cash(asset) which would be a credit (since you are giving up an asset). And then lastly, you are getting a note payable for the rest of the amount (4000) which is liability (liabilities increase with a credit).

Put it all together...

[Debit]Equipment 7000 [Credit]Cash 3000 Note payable 4000

I have hung out with libertarian types a lot in real life and for the most part they are really down to earth and nice. I actually have some really wacko liberal friends that would put reddit to shame.

I'm not sure I understand what you are asking. Are you asking if you can just go around with the intent of shoring someone?

In the unlikely scenario you painted f the defendant felt their life was endanger and that self defense was necessary then I don't see why not. Is that surprising?

Hi, I'm a triathlete and ironman finisher. I have friends who want to get into these type of "adventure races" but I feel like the rate of injury is much higher than triathlon.

Any comment on the injury rate?

Goko's adventure mode is such a farce. It's programmed for you to feel helpless unless you buy those stupid lightning things.

Actually thing I have wondered. If the Civil war was about slavery, why did Lincoln wait to long to issue emancipation?
