REFLEXIÓN FINAL


REFLEXION FINAL



Antes de comenzar la materia venia con pensamientos predispuestos, pensaba que seria aburrida, difícil y estresante. Gracias a la dinámica que utiliza la profesora Doris todo fue totalmente distinto a los pensamientos que traía, fueron 8 días de compartir y obtener gratos conocimientos mas que de una simple clases de ingles. Me parece muy interesante la metodología que utiliza la profesora para aportar sus conocimiento, el simple hecho de utilizar la tecnología como una herramienta indispensable es algo incomparable. Durante el curso aprendí cosas distintas como crear un blog en el cual pueda conocer del trabajo realizado por otros estudiantes, en cual pueda seguir y me puedan seguir  otras personas, conocí acerca de los abatas lo cual ignoraba en su totalidad. A pesar de que el tiempo no fue suficiente, estos días permitieron retomar ciertos conocimientos de ingles que desde hace tiempo no se ponían en práctica como fue  repasar acerca de los sufijos, prefijo, verbos, etc...  Volví a trabajar con un diccionario de ingles que desde hace mucho tiempo no lo hacia, aprendí como identificar la idea principal de un texto sin necesidad de saber hablar perfectamente ingles, en fin fueron gratos conocimientos los que se obtuvieron. Me llevo una experiencia distinta y muy agradable. Gracias profesora por estos 8 días de clases incomparables y por la enseñanza aportada.

El entusiasmo es el combustible de la vida nos permite llegar al destino.

THE LARGEST IN HISTORY ACCOUNT





It is possible that the worst global crisis since the 1930s is starting to disappear. But another storm looms on the horizon financial: huge public debt. In the rich world Governments depend increasingly lending, because revenues have declined and spending has increased. The figures provided by IMF economists suggeest that public debt of  the ten richest countries will be 78% of GDP in 2007 to 114% in 2014. These governments then adeudaran near of us $50 billion by each citizen. Since World War II were not so many Governments asking for money lent at similar speed. In addition, debt today will not be temporary as generated in times of war. Even after the recession ends, some of the rich countries will only have budgets able to stop the increase in debt. And worse still, all this happening when the budget has been more affected by the increase in the costs of  pensions and benefits of an ageing population. In fact, one third of the population of rich countries will have more than 60 years of age by 2050.

This alarming picture puts lawmakers in a very difficult situation. Short term it is vital that the Government asks provided to ease the crisis. In the absence of a financial aid program, the crisis would have been a disaster. And in the absence of a stimulus, the global  recession would have been deeper and more lasting. But in the long run fiscal laxity of  these moments will not be viable. Most needy Governments displace private investment and economic growth stagnate. More alarming is still enormous public debt will force Governments to comply with the payment of the same or to reduce inflationary measures. What should Governments do? In general terms, they should cut spending rather than increasing taxes if they want to clean up public finances. But nothing will be as effective as taking tough decisions immediately. A priority is to raise the retirement age. This will increase tax revenues (people work more time) and reducing future pension costs.

UNIDAD II (ESTRUCTURA DE LA ORACIÓN)

OVERVIEW OF INVESTMENT IN 2010





With the uncertain global economic climate, investors today have devoted much of his time and money to run their business in the future and therefore study more profitable markets, whether in China, Brazil or USA. While most financial analysts believed that the world economy may not give you a spike immediate actions companies in general, as recovery seen slow, the truth is that many economists recommend making safer financial moves that allow business growth as the winds of recession begin to subside.

Therefore one of the most profitable bets for 2010 is to internationalize investments and acquire multinationals, especially in the technological and food sector. According to passive investors the most diversified is obtained when you opt for comprehensive, not by the local. Instead, active investors are based on this strategy not by the pursuit of diversity, but the idea of bargain better negotiations in less exploited markets and with few competitors.

Regardless of the objective pursued the investors is the forecasts estimate that U.S. companies will focus on the next year to seek investment abroad, because for the Americans, dividends from shares and foreign bonds are more profitable to have a weakened dollar front other major currencies. In fact, a study found that 40% (percentage in 22% last year) this country investors plan to increase its presence in the international stock market over the next five years. However, the ask investors what your preference in the stock market, a large majority of Americans chose his country; Instead, the option of aliens placed USA Fourthly, China, India and Brazil.

In addition, prospects for economic recovery are notable in Asia and countries rich in natural resources such as Brazil, Canada and Australia. This indicates that USA has ceased to play a dominant role in the global economy and must now make way for the emerging countries.

UNIDAD III (SCANNING)


Fray Luca Pacioli



The biographical news possessing of Lucas Paccioli is not very abundant. While everyone is talking about it, few know his work. He was born in Borgo di San Sepolcro in the Italian province of Arezzo, but ignores the date of his birth, although it is assumed that it was between 1445 and 1450. Nor is known the year of his death, being able to say that in 1514 he lived yet. It is possible that he died in the year 1516.

He was a pupil of the Piraeus Della Francesca held mathematical and virtuoso painter at the time. Reached the age of twenty he moved to Venice and entered the service of the wealthy merchant Antonio Rompiasi concept of teacher for their children. In 1470 he wrote an elementary treatise on algebra I dedicate to the sons of Rompiasi. It is certain that there could become familiar with the life of the business and observe the development of what would now call "Office work". In 1471 he went to Rome as a guest of Leon Batista Alberti, famous humanist, mathematician, architect, etc, prototype of the "Universal man" of his time and his people, this fact demonstrates that mathematicians of his time had great estimate; It was not easy having the friendship of the great Florentine genius. He entered the order of the children of San Francisco. Year 1475 in 1478 he taught mathematics at Perusia, where he wrote a second work of algebra. In 1481 year published a third work on mathematics. Subsequently, 1490 to 1494, taught in Naples and Padua; He went to Florence and finally returned to Venice, to prepare and revise his masterpiece. At the time lived Lucas Paccioli, scientists did not have the status of "specialized". It was the Renaissance momentum Summit and privileged intelligences of time covering all branches of the hitherto known science.

Lucas Paccioli belonged to the Group of those Renaissance who felt attracted by all aspects of human knowledge. Lucas Paccioli, contemporary of Leonardo was his friend, collaborator in several works, studies and teaching fellow, and in some of the books published by Paccioli figure drawings of Leonardo, according to the own Paccioli. Furthermore, Lucas Paccioli, extraordinary culture, man was connected with high hierarchies of the Church, was Secretary of several Cardinals and deserved special and personal protection of the Popes Julius II and Leo X (Juan Médicis).

Lucas Paccioli, mathematician, theologian, architect, Mystic, geometer, poet, etc., wrote several works on various subjects; but, as we have said, those who have given renowned are the Summa of arithmetic, geometry, Proportionatie et Proportionalita (1494) and divine Proportioni (1509), both highly mathematical character.

The Summa is almost the first printed book that focuses on mathematics, it can be considered as the origin of the Italian mathematical school that had shine in the next century. This encyclopedic set contained a special treaty (entitled Tractatus Computis Partícularis et Scripturis) dedicated to explain the accounting of traders; so the first printed work that explains the "double" and was the basis of a "doctrine" on this system without discussion, who first exhibited. There is no doubt Paccioli contribution to accounting was historic, because his book brings together the complete structure of accounting twice, not only with the explanation of the necessary books but also with a very advanced exhibition procedures.

UNIDAD III (TÉCNICAS DE LECTURA)

FINANCE YOUR LEADS




                   
Personal finance is one of those issues that the world believes to be an expert, most people assume that your finances are under control and when financial problems arise they think that more money will solve their problems, but believe it or not, more money not meant out of financial trouble, more money will result in a problem whose turnover has grown. Personal finance is an issue in which a leader should be also noted, if a leader does not have finances in balance in a short time the financial imbalance will begin to play other areas of your life affecting negatively to your group, being the leader a person e.g. finances not beyond everything that represents the leader.

A good financial management includes the optimum small handling amounts that you make efficient use of scarce resources at the time in which to increase revenues would increase also the efficiency with which we handle these resources, on the other hand an inefficient small amounts safely use bring enormous difficulties when the flow of income increases, the reason is more than logic, if you cannot manage $120 in the right way with the mindset that more money will solve the problem when you will get $600 the problem will grow 500%.

The problem with the economy is not the money, the financial management of the money, we are all examples clear this, people earn much more money than we apparently are in worse shape us and if we see people earn much less than we seem to do magic with their earnings, depending on the financial decisions we make today, tomorrow are on one of the two extremes commented before.

Now however, as no single leader must be outstanding for our finance, not we can neglect the finances of our group, according to Karen Olson of Sylo Inc. One of the two main causes of stress on employees are financial issues (debt) by which you as a leader you have your finances under control but an important member of your team is involved in debts exceeding revenues, worry and stress will generate this situation will significantly decrease performance of the employee and time of the whole team.

There are three truths concerning finance and the money you need to know:

- The money will not give happiness itself only.
- Debts if alone if they will do so unhappy.
- Have a financial margin gives you options.

If you don't see usefulness in having control over their finances, and thinks that more money will solve everything, read again the third truth I placed here, have a financial margin gives you options, have options can eventually give you the feeling of happiness and success, you'll feel much more freedom, it just imagine for a moment live where you want to and not where you can drive the car you like and not who has studied what you are passionate about and not what you money, to live instead of survive, as I see it I, worth the effort.

One of the missions of the enterprise is to create value, but also maximize it as best as possible, through the efficient use of financial resources. Shareholders should know managing your business and prevent crises, when be surprised its assets could see harmed. To avoid this situation, it is advisable to carry out a valuation scheme so that each partner is aware of the decisions they take in the field of investment, sale of stocks, finance, operations and dividends, among other things.

In every facet of our lives, it is necessary that we are able to manage our money.
