2011 Fort Lauderdale 4th Annual Surety Presentationjreedcpa
The document summarizes a construction surety forum that took place on October 27, 2011 in Fort Lauderdale, FL. It included presentations on internal controls and fraud issues, accounting standards updates, budgeting for contractors, and succession planning. The internal controls presentation discussed assessing a client's control environment and key minimum, expected, and best-in-class controls. The accounting standards update covered projects converging US GAAP and IFRS, the revenue recognition exposure draft, and private company financial reporting recommendations. Budgeting and succession planning also provided learning objectives and discussion points.
The document summarizes a special exception request for a proposed 2000 square foot banquet hall and catering facility located at 601 E Dania Beach Blvd. The request is to allow for the banquet hall use in the Transit Oriented Corridor zoning district. The proposed hours of operation are Monday through Thursday from 10am to 8pm and Friday through Sunday from 3pm to 12am. The site currently has 168 parking spaces which meets the required parking for existing uses and the proposed banquet hall. However, if all 5 vacant retail/office spaces were filled, it would result in a parking deficit of 16 spaces. Both the Planning and Zoning Board and CRA Director recommend approval of the special exception request.
The City of Dania Beach routinely monitors its drinking water supply and submits reports on water quality. Testing in 2012 found the water safe within regulatory limits, except the City failed to complete all required lead and copper sampling between July and December. The water source is underground aquifers accessed by wells 65 feet deep. Water is treated through lime softening, filtration, disinfection and fluoride addition. About 17,000 customers receive water meeting health standards, though some groups may be at higher risk and should take precautions.
The document presents a proof of concept for the MedInfo app, which has SMS and web-based modules. It describes the SMS gateway functionality that allows users to request a list of local healthcare providers by sending a pincode via SMS. The app then returns healthcare provider details like name, phone number, and address ordered by proximity. Screenshots demonstrate managing healthcare providers and a user receiving requested provider details.

This document provides life insurance claim data for various Indian life insurers for the years 2008-09. It shows the number and amount of claims pending at the start of the year, new claims received during the year, total claims, claims paid, repudiated, and written back, and claims pending at the end of the year. The largest insurers were LIC, with over 130,000 claims pending, and ICICI Pru and Bajaj Allianz, with over 800 and 500 claims pending respectively among private insurers. Over 95% of claims were paid by LIC, while private insurers paid 70-90% of claims on average, with the remainder pending or repudiated.
The standard deviation of a portfolio decreases as more funds are added to the portfolio. A portfolio's total risk comes from systematic risk, which cannot be reduced by diversification, and unsystematic (diversifiable) risk, which can be reduced through diversification. Diversification across many funds reduces the unsystematic risk in a portfolio but not the systematic risk.
