Business Finance Homework Help

Congratulations! Through your research and efforts last week, you’ve
been offered and accepted a position as a staff accountant at ABC Tax
& Accounting Service. As a public accountant, you will work with
many clients and organizations every day. This requires a number of
skills, including time management, communication, information literacy,
digital fluency, and teamwork, along with accounting knowledge and
skills.

In this new position, you have a number of duties and
clients you are responsible for. After a long weekend, you arrive to the
office on Monday morning, April 11th, to the communications and issues
in this document.

Along
with all of the communications on your task list, you have work from
prior weeks to attend to as well, including the March bookkeeping for
Buzz Electricals, quarterly payroll reports for the Ripp Sewing Company
due to be postmarked by April 30th, and a few tax returns that were
started last week that clients would like to review and sign on
Wednesday of this week. Your schedule for the day shows the following:

MONDAY, APRIL 11th
8am-9am
9am-10am	Staff Meeting
10am-11am
11am-12pm
12pm-1pm	Lunch – Planning Session
1pm-2pm	New Tax Client Meeting
2pm-3pm
3pm-4pm
4pm-5pm	Training – “Affordable Care Act Impact on Payroll Recordkeeping”

To complete this assignment, do the following:

1. Prioritize what you will be working on
   today. In a single Word document, create a schedule in tabular format
   (you can use the schedule table above as a starting point) that shows
   the tasks you plan to complete today. Then, beneath the table, address
   the following:
   • Justify any tasks that you will be pushing to tomorrow or later
     and explain how you plan to address any scheduling or deadline
     conflicts.
   • Explain at least one alternative to the schedule you have
     created for yourself. Why is your chosen schedule more
     efficient/beneficial than other option? How does your choice benefit
     your employer? Your clients? You as an employee?
2. Share how you will be responding to the email and voicemail
   messages in the document posted above using the following guidelines:
   • Emails should be written exactly as you would send them to
     clients or vendors, and voicemails should be scripted as exactly what
     you would say in response to the issues being raised.
   • Ensure you are providing accurate and pointed information along with any relevant details needed in your communications.
   • Remember to communicate in a professional and appropriate
     manner, keeping your audience and communication purpose in mind, as
     would be expected of you on the job.
   • Your submission can be a combination of different types of
     communications to address the concerns and issues that have arisen
     above. This might mean using a Word document, Excel document, or
     PowerPoint document or any combination thereof. Or you may decide to
     handle all communications in a single type of format.
   • Your communications should be clear, professional, and free
     from grammatical error, effectively using spellcheck and dictionary
     tools within the software programs chosen.
   • Remember to give credit to any external sources used by providing in-text citations and a reference page (if used)
