Recommended: What is the importance of business mathematics

Which major/s from this lecture are you most interested in?
I really enjoyed the accounting specialization because I feel that I’m very comfortable with numbers and I like solving analytical problems. I also like the social aspect that would come with accounting, like communicating with your colleagues at work about what you discovered or useful information. I think working with financial records of a firm or business would be interesting because you never know what to expect to happen and you have to be quick to adapt to certain situations.
How is this major (or majors) a good fit for your strengths/interests? The major is somewhat good with my strengths and interests. I love numbers and have a strong foundations with the mathematics useful for the business field. I have taken and done very well in micro/macro economics which lays the foundation that the business major is all about. By taking these classes, I have a good idea what the field entails and I also like the creative part that the business major has, because there’s often more than 1 answer to a problem. At the same time I’m unsure that my weaknesses are would fit in with the business major. I enjoy communicating, but my public speaking skills aren’t great. For example, when speaking to a large crowd I tend to get nervous and sometimes struggle to get my point across. …show more content…

    I had a Political science professor that once said “Political survey answers depend more on how a question is asked than on what the question is asking.” I read and reread the above question. I have to admit that even after 15 weeks of topic discussions, PowerPoint, text chapters and Google; I am still confused about how tax expenditure works. The nearest I can figure out and in plain English, it is simply a tax break. That being said, this question is very methodically asked. The term “anti-poverty programs” is a gentle, non threatening term that will be met with compassion and kindness among more than 85% of (surveyed) US citizens. Second “tax expenditures” is a confusing term associated with the mean IRS that must have something to do with the government taking hard earned money and doing something with it, but what? Who knows? The final term is the big, bad anti-conservative term that only about 11% of surveyed Americans actually greet with any positivity. So the question in our subconscious mind flows something like: “What are the advantages and disadvantages of helping people who need it with your tax money instead of giving it to people who don’t want to work?” But that’s not what the question is asking. Because I know that my subconscious takes into consideration, the information it believes is true. First anti-poverty programs, such as Medicaid, are in most people’s minds still welfare. Before the New Deal many of the anti-poverty programs, as well as welfare (utility assistance, help purchasing groceries, etc.) were funded completely through private charities....

    While this statement does hold some truth, it is not entirely accurate. It is true that much of Alexander the Great’s story was written long after his death, but that does not means “historians really do not know much about” him. It is often difficult to piece together the puzzle that makes up the life and times of Alexander, but to a large extent it can be done. Historians are able to piece together source material, histories, and archeological data to paint a portrait of the warrior king. This does not mean that the task is easy, or that all scholars agree, but it certainly presents a wealth of information to be considered.
