Philosophy: Plato's 5 Dialogue Question
My assignment is this:Post a thoughtful response to both of the following questions (your response should be at least two paragraphs in length):1. How could the sort of investigation Socrates suggests make any progress towards an answer when the questioner (Socrates) is ignorant and the respondent (Euthyphro) is now in confusion? Mustn't somebody know something in order for the inquiry to get off the ground or move in the right direction? 2. The dialogue ends with no progress being made — or does it? What positive results (if any) does the Socratic method yield? Do we know any more about piety at the end of the dialogue than we knew at the beginning? So far this is what I have written..1. From what we know of Piety, it is related to religion and justice. What then makes something pious (just)? This is what Socrates wanted to know, and so, he asked Euthyphro to help him understand. The questioning from Socrates's showed that Euthyphro had contradictions in his definitions of what is pious. Socrates simply questioned and brought up flaws in Euthyphro's answers, which Euthyphro then proceded to answer with more contradictions. In the end Socrates was left with no clear definition of “pious” and Euthyphro was shown to be ignorant. This doesn't mean that they did not make any progression. In finding contradictions through questioning, we can say that we are a step closer to finding an answer to what is "piety". We are also introduced to Socrate's method of questioning which helps people think for themselves and be aware of their logic. 2. Unfortunately, we do not have a clear definition of what is pious. We do know that Socrate's method of questioning Euthyphro led to a step by step process known as "Socrates method". The socratic method in the dialogue brought out the inconsistences in Euthypro's answers and made him aware of them. This made Euthyphro think and bring up new ideas, which is a positive aspect to the method. We do not know what piety is but we are a step closer to finding out a universal definition.I am very new to philosophy and its a bit difficult to understand, so I'm not sure if what I wrote makes much sense. If it does make sense, I feel I need to write more but I'm at a blank to what I need to add or write down. Need help understanding, and what else I should be focusing on. Both answers sound similar as well, which makes me doubt my understanding of the questions. Thank you

ACT450 Colorado State PharmaCorp Planning Analytical Procedures Paper
Option #1: Data Analytics and ExcelReference the Excel file containing financial information from footnote disclosures and substantive analytical procedures using data analytics from your instructor.PharmaCorp will be used as the main analytical procedure tasks you will want to focus on for this assignment. The other companies, Novartell and AstraZoro, will be used as industry comparisons.The opportunity exists in this case to perform planning and substantive analytical procedures for accounts in the revenue cycle. You may assume that the 2015 financial information is unaudited, but the information from 2014 has been audited. Consider the following trends and characteristics of the pharmaceutical industry and for PharmaCorp in particular as you work on this case:Following many years of dominant financial performance by companies in the United States, Europe and Canada, increased competition is arising from organizations in emerging economies such as Brazil, India, and China.Significant uncertainty exists in the industry due to regulation covering health-care and government reimbursements related to certain procedures and prescribed pharmaceuticals.Policy makers in the industry and governments increasingly:Mandate necessary prescripts for patientsFocus on prevention instead of treatment regimes, thereby leading to changes in demand for some productsAnticipated growth in the industry is expected to be 5% to 7% in 2016 compared with 4% to 5% in the prior year as stated by leading industry analysts.Pharmacorp started and executed a significant cost reduction initiative aimed at improving efficiency, reducing research and development costs, and eliminating corporate overhead in 2014.PharmaCorp’s credit policies has remained the same over the past several years. Their credit policies are considered stringent in their industry, and they have been criticized on occasion for these policies in relation to their competitors.Two of the companies most popular pharmaceuticals, Sistosis and Vigarvox, are no longer patented as of the last quarter of 2015 and are now facing competition from generic alternatives.Required:Part I: Planning Analytical ProceduresStep 1: Identify Proper Analytical Procedures. The senior auditor suggests you should use these ratios (on the financial statement level) for planning the analytical procedures as part of the revenue cycle at the company:Gross margin: (revenues-cost of sales)/revenuesTurnover of receivables: (revenues/average accounts receivable); use the ending accounts receivableReceivables as a percentage of current assets: (accounts receivable/total current assets)Receivables as a percentage of total assets: (accounts receivable/total assets)Allowance for uncollectible accounts as a percentage of accounts receivable: (allowance/accounts receivable)Identify other relationships or trends that are relevant as part of the planning analytics. Discuss your reasons for your choices.Step 2: Evaluate the Data Reliability When Developing Expectations. The data you will use to develop expectations in the revenue cycle has been deemed reliable by the audit staff.Discuss the likely factors the audit team will consider when making this determination.Step 3: Develop expectations for accounts in the revenue cycle and for the ratios from Step # 1 that you deem as relevant. Since this is a planning analytical procedure, the expectations are not set at a high a high level of precision. Indicate if you expect a ratio to rise, fall, or remain the same, and explain the level of any anticipated rises or falls, or the range of the ratio. Pharma Corp’s financial information is in the first tab of the Excel worksheet, while the information for Novartell and AstraZoro is available in the last two tabs of the file.Consider both historical trends of Pharmcorp and the industry on the whole.Step 4 and Step 5: Define and Identify Substantial Unanticipated Variances. Refer to the text for guidance on materiality.Apply those guidelines to Step 4 of planning the analytical procedures as part of the revenue cycle for Pharmacorp. Define the meaning of a significant difference. Discuss your reasons for these choices. Discuss the qualitative materiality considerations in relation to this case.Once you have determined the levels of difference you would consider noteworthy, calculate the Step 1 ratios (and any additional trend or ration analysis you deemed necessary), based on Pharmacorp’s financial statement figures. Identify the ratios where you expect a significant difference.Step 6 and Step 7: Investigate Substantial Unanticipated Variances and Ensure Appropriate Documentation.Discuss the accounts or relationships you feel should be investigated further using substantive audit procedures. Discuss your reasons for these choices.Describe the information that should be a part of the auditor’s report or files.Part II: Substantive Analytical Procedures You will see three tabs in the Excel file that should be reviewed: the Pharmacorp Segment Information, Pharmacorp’s Geographic Information, and Pharmacorp’s Other Revenue Information. These tabs display excerpts from Pharma Corp’s footnote disclosures regarding segment, geographic, and other revenue information. Examine these disclosures and discuss the operating segments and geographic regions where the company does business.Which operating segments generate the most revenue for the company and may be considered the most important? Which regions are the most important to the organization from geographic standpoint? List the three most important products manufactured by Pharmacorp? Discuss any trends you notice in relation to revenue generation for each of these different categories.Explain the different types of ratio analysis that could be conducted in substantive analytical procedures using the data from the segment, geographic, and other revenue information. An example would be the R&D expenses as a percentage of revenues. How would these substantive analytics be different from the planning analytics? Discuss the trends and relationships that are relevant, and what are the implications in relation to further substantive testing?Your written response paper should be 8-10 pages in length. It should be completed in Word and Excel. The Word portions should follow the APA format, according to CSU-Global Guide to Writing and APA Requirements (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site.. Include a title page and reference page. Use four (4) outside academic sources other than the textbook, course materials, or other information provided as part of the course materials.
