CFO Due to the increasingly complex nature Do you think finance departments are the best place to train future CEOs? Provide two actual examples of CFOs of publicly-traded companies who became CEOs of publicly-traded companies within the past 5 years. Do these individuals have the CPA and/or CFA designations? CFOs are increasingly asked to engage in strategic planning for organizations, and to interact with other members of the managerial board in a meaningful

, 2008). Objectives of Research and Investigation The primary objective of the proposed research is to develop a prototype of a bidirectional converter for use in residential grid-connected PV systems that incorporates SPMC technology. As part of this primary objective, a secondary objective is to design and implement control strategies to regulate a smooth bidirectional flow of power, controlling the system in an efficient and productive manner. Finally, in order to demonstrate

Batteries are common in individual household systems. Inverters could help, though their technology is not standardized. Automated demand response using smart meters with microclimate forecasting research is well funded (St. John). Building dedicated (express) feeders for larger PV systems with bidirectional voltage regulators is one response. Avoiding fixed capacitator banks and having the PV system absorb volt-ampere reactives are two other possible solutions (Katiraei and Romero Aguero 69-70). On

Finance One difference between industries with high leverage and low leverage is a split between the need for fixed assets (high leverage) and a reliance on intellectual capital (low leverage). Airlines need planes, construction companies need equipment, and communications and hotel companies need infrastructure capacity. This compares with computers, drugs, biological products, educational services and electronics, all of which rely heavily on intellectual property to derive value. The conclusion that one
