Caso 3.1 Firma de contadores Moss y McAdams Bruce Palmer haba trabajado para Moss and McAdams (M&M) durante seis aos y acababa de ser ascendido a gerente de cuentas. Su primera asignacin fue dirigir una auditora de Johnsonville Trucks. Estaba bastante complacido con los cinco contadores que haban sido asignados a su equipo, especialmente con Zeke Olds. Olds era un veterano del ejrcito que haba regresado a la escuela para obtener una doble especializacin en contabilidad e informtica. Estaba al tanto de los ltimos desarrollos en sistemas de informacin financiera y tena la reputacin de encontrar soluciones innovadoras a los problemas. M&M era una firma de contabilidad regional bien establecida con 160 empleados ubicados en seis oficinas en Minnesota y Wisconsin. La oficina principal, donde trabajaba Palmer, estaba en Green Bay, Wisconsin. De hecho, uno de los miembros fundadores, Seth Moss, jug brevemente para los Packers de la NFL de su ciudad natal a fines de la dcada de 1950. Los principales servicios de M&M eran auditoras corporativas y preparacin de impuestos. En los ltimos dos aos, los socios decidieron incursionar de manera ms agresiva en el negocio de la consultora. M&M proyect que la consultora representara el 40 por ciento de su crecimiento durante los prximos cinco aos. Pgina 98M&M operaba dentro de una estructura matricial. A medida que se reclutaban nuevos clientes, se asignaba un administrador a la cuenta. Se podra asignar un gerente a varias cuentas, segn el tamao y el alcance del trabajo. Esto fue especialmente cierto en el caso de los proyectos de preparacin de impuestos, donde no era raro que un gerente fuera asignado a 8 a 12 clientes. Asimismo, los contadores principales y de planta fueron asignados a mltiples equipos de cuentas. Ruby Sands era la gerente de oficina responsable de asignar personal a diferentes cuentas en la oficina de Green Bay. Hizo todo lo posible para asignar personal a mltiples proyectos bajo el mismo gerente. Esto no siempre era posible y, a veces, los contadores tenan que trabajar en proyectos dirigidos por diferentes gerentes.

En dos aos, se revis su desempeo y se les pidi que se fueran o se les ascendi a contador senior. En algn momento durante su quinto o sexto ao, se tom la decisin de ascenderlos a gerente de cuentas. Finalmente, luego de 10 a 12 aos en la firma, el gerente fue considerado para su ascenso a socio. Esta era una posicin muy competitiva. Durante los ltimos 5 aos, solo el 20 por ciento de los gerentes de cuentas de M&M haban sido ascendidos a socios. Sin embargo, una vez que eran socios, tenan prcticamente garantizado el puesto de por vida y disfrutaban de aumentos significativos en salario, beneficios y prestigio.

Caso 2: (TV de Alta Definicin: La Gran Alianza): (1) Segn el caso los recursos crticos que son valiosos para una empresa de radiodifusin. (2) Proporcionar una secuencia de eventos en el desarrollo de televisores de alta definicin. (3) Explique sobre la Gran Alianza explicada en el caso. Cul fue el acuerdo entre los miembros de esta alianza? Cmo se ha resuelto? 9 - 804- 103 REV: 7 DE OCTUBRE DE 2 005 THOMA S EI SENMA NN Televisin de alta definicin: la gran alianza A fines de la dcada de 1980, las emisoras y los fabricantes de productos electrnicos de todo el mundo competan por establecer nuevos estndares de transmisin de televisin. La tecnologa de la televisin no haba cambiado en dcadas, desde que se introdujo por primera vez la televisin en color. Era tcnicamente factible transmitir imgenes mucho ms ntidas, pero la transicin de los estndares existentes a la televisin de alta definicin (HDTV) podra ser enormemente costosa y estara sujeta a la dinmica del huevo y la gallina. Los consumidores no compraran televisores HDTV hasta que los programas HDTV estuvieran disponibles, y la programacin no estara disponible hasta que las emisoras tuvieran acceso a una gran base instalada de televisores HDTV. El desafo de establecer nuevos estndares se vio agravado por el impacto potencial de la HDTV en las economas nacionales. Miles de millones de dlares en ventas de televisores y cientos de miles de puestos de trabajo de fabricacin estaban en juego. Lo que est en juego sera an mayor si la prxima generacin de tecnologa de televisin trajera la tan esperada convergencia de televisores con computadoras personales. Frente a estas presiones, las autoridades gubernamentales podran gestionar activamente la transicin a HDTV, organizando a los participantes de la industria y subsidiando la I+D y el despliegue de infraestructura. O bien, podran confiar en las fuerzas del mercado para elegir un nuevo estndar y fomentar las inversiones. Cul fue el enfoque correcto? Iniciativas internacionales de HDTV En los EE. UU., un organismo de la industria llamado Comit Nacional de Estndares de Televisin (NTSC) estableci especificaciones para la tecnologa de televisin en color a principios de la dcada de 1950. Un televisor NTSC muestra 525 lneas horizontales, con una relacin de aspecto de 4:3 (es decir, las imgenes tienen cuatro unidades de ancho por cada tres unidades de altura). Las imgenes se escanean en la pantalla a una frecuencia de 60 campos por segundo (fps).1 Cada campo muestra una lnea horizontal alterna; el campo siguiente muestra la mitad restante de las lneas. Los campos llegan tan rpido que el cerebro los percibe como una sola imagen entrelazada (un cuadro) que se actualiza 30 veces por segundo. En comparacin, escanear el 100 % de 212,5 lneas en cada campo (es decir, un fotograma completo) a una velocidad de 60 fps requerira el mismo ancho de banda que el entrelazado NTSC, pero ofrecera una resolucin mucho menor. Los estndares europeos de televisin en color se aprobar.

Bajo la operacin del estado, el vertedero acept basura domstica, recortes de csped, estircol, cadveres de animales, contenedores con advertencias de contenido peligroso, bateras de automviles con fugas, aceite de desecho, entre otras cosas. A pesar de las leyes ambientales federales que exigen que los depsitos de vertederos se cubran dentro de las veinticuatro horas posteriores a su vertido, los depsitos de vertederos a menudo se dejaban descubiertos durante semanas seguidas, atrayendo insectos, ratas y otros carroeros. Se produjeron incendios, incluido al menos uno iniciado por un intruso que haba ingresado a la propiedad del vertedero a travs de una puerta abierta. Los Leatch se quejaron al estado, alegando que el relleno sanitario estaba siendo operado en violacin de las leyes federales que estn diseadas para minimizar los riesgos de lesiones por incendios, carroeros, contaminacin del agua subterrnea y otros peligros de contaminacin.

Case study Data Protect and Privacy Human beings value their privacy and the protection of their personal sphere of life. They value some control over who knows what about them. They certainly do not want their personal information to be accessible to just anyone at any time. But recent advances in information technology threaten privacy and have reduced the amount of control over personal data and open up the possibility of a range of negative consequences as a result of access to personal data. In the second half of the 20th century data protection regimes have been put in place as a response to increasing levels of processing of personal data. The 21st century has become the century of big data and advanced information technology (e.g. forms of deep learning), the rise of big tech companies and the platform economy, which comes with the storage and processing of exabytes of data. The technical capabilities to collect, store and search large quantities of data concerning telephone conversations, internet searches and electronic payment are now in place and are routinely used by government agencies and corporate actors alike. The rise of China and the large scale of use and spread of advanced digital technologies for surveillance and control have only added to the concern of many. For business firms, personal data about customers and potential customers are now also a key asset.

CASE STUDY [30 Marks] Former Tongaat Hulett bosses in court for fraud Just over two years after charges were laid against them, former Tongaat Hulett Limited chief executive Peter Staude and six others accused of defrauding the sugar and property giant of R2.5-billion have finally appeared in court. The group of former executives charged over the fraud includes Deloitte audit partner Gavin Kruger, who was responsible for auditing Tongaats books; former chief financial officer Murray Munro; former property division head Michael Deighton, finance section head Rory Wilkinson; legal executive Kamlasagrie Singh and finance executive Samantha Shukla. They appeared in the Durban commercial crimes court on Thursday and were granted bail of R30 000 each. They will appear in court again on 11 April, then the matter will be transferred to the high court. Straude and his co-accused backdated sale agreements by Tongaats property division to the value of R2.5-billion between March 2015 and September 2018, when the fraud was discovered by the new Tongaat board, which appointed a forensic investigation. By inflating the companys profits, they scored themselves millions of rand in productivity bonuses based on the fraudulent sales, with Straude alone raking in R94-million by cooking the books. Their greed cost nearly 8 000 workers in Tongaats sugar division and its milling operations their jobs when the company moved to sell off assets and reduce its debt, while the firm and its suppliers sustained huge losses. The company has gone after Staudes assets and those of Munro and Deighton. It instituted a high court claim against them for R450-million in 2020, seeking repayment of all the bonuses, salary payments and benefits it had paid them during their tenure. Tongatt also wants the court to attach the accuseds pensions, which it has withheld pending the outcome of the civil and criminal matters. According to the charge sheet, the seven had acted with common purpose in planning to falsify sales figures and defraud the company. The group also actively associated themselves with the common purpose, and worked together to misrepresent the true state of the revenue brought about by sales of land by Tongaat Hulett Development (THD), and to falsify the financial records of THD and or Tongaat Hulett Limited. They had overstated the company revenue by R2.4-billion, an act which, once discovered, exposed Tongaat to negative publicity and has been brought into disrepute with shareholders, lenders, regulatory authorities and the broader public. Their fraudulent conduct cost Tongaat R44-milion to have its financial statements restated and it was fined a further R7.5million by local bourse the JSE and R20-million by the Financial Sector Conduct Authority. The seven knew that material inaccurate accounting records had been compiled and maintained which were ultimately processed and incorporated into the financial statements, the indictment said, adding: The financial stateme.

The case study attendees are asked to analyze the project information provided and to recommend courses of action to bring the project back on track. Attendees are also asked to suggest actions that could be taken on future similar projects to mitigate encountering similar problems. The key lessons learnt could be applied by other organizations to avoid common pitfalls which result in projects going off track, as well as knowing the telltale signs of troubled projects and actions to take to bring them back on track. This is an interactive session, which utilizes group discussion to facilitate the adult learning experience. Background A leading financial services company embarked on a new product development project. The nature of the company's business is that it operates in an extremely competitive environment that necessitates fast delivery to market so as to prevent competitor companies from gaining dominant market share with similar competitive products. The key success factors of the project were, therefore, time to market and quality. Cost of delivery was not a major concern. Scope The scope of the project was to make a new investment product, including the systems changes, the policy documents, marketing launch material, and the administrative user training. The project was divided into sub-projects consisting of: Systems, Marketing, Training, and Legal. A project manager was appointed, as well as sub-project co- coordinators. Time Scales The launch date was set as 1 June 2002. The product had to be ready for launch on this date, as all the marketing material would reflect this date and the launch had to precede the launch of similar products from competitors. The project start date was 3 December 2001. The tasks that had been completed prior to 3 December were the Business Case compilation and approval and the project team establishment. Technology The systems development was to be done using the Java programming language and environment, which was new to the development team. The developers were sent on Java programming training 2 weeks prior to the project start. The developers were used to working in a COBOL programming environment and had not worked with any object-oriented languages before. Case Study Summary of Events Business Case Development The Product Development Department developed the Business Case for the proposed new product, including projected cost/benefit analysis based on previous similar products and current market share. The Business Case was reviewed by Executive Management and approved. Requirements Definition The Product Development Department developed the requirements specification for the new product. .
