Practical Guide to Cost Segregation (Fourth Edition) not only explains how a cost segregation study is performed, but also outlines the steps needed to practice in this discipline and how to integrate and expand the broad practice of the firm taking it on. Comprehensive discussion is supported by practical illustrative examples. The book also explains how to sell and price cost segregation studies and analysis as a meaningful service to a firm's clients. 

Cost segregation involves much more than real estate. Land improvements and personal property components potentially eligible for separate depreciation over a reduced depreciation period include parking lots, sidewalks, curbs, roads, fences, storm sewers, landscaping, signage, lighting, security and fire protection systems, removable partitions, removable carpeting and wall tiling, furniture, and counters. Also potentially eligible are appliances and machinery unrelated to the operation and maintenance of the building and the portion of electrical wiring and plumbing properly allocable to machinery and equipment that is unrelated to the operation and maintenance of the building.

Mediating Justice: Legal Dispute Negotiations, 2nd Edition provides the most comprehensive, practical, and theoretical framework for mediating disputes over rights in Canada. One of the unique features of this book is that it brings together, in one source, all of the multi-disciplinary literature on negotiation and mediation in the important context of conflicts over rights. The central theme is the power of authentic "talk" and "listening" in the resolution of our most difficult disputes.

The author provides strategic advice on the best dispute resolution practices and the role of lawyers and law in legal dispute negotiations. Practitioners will develop an enhanced understanding of the dynamics of dispute resolution and the tailoring of facilitative practices to particular disputes or barriers for successful interventions.

This resource was written for lawyers, mediators, and other conflict resolution professionals, such as human resource practitioners, judges, and tribunal members. As well, particular attention was also paid to law students.

What's included:

• An update of the most recent multi-disciplinary literature on dispute resolution in one accessible source;
• An analysis of a wide range of cutting-edge techniques for intervening in legal disputes, particularly those that are emotional or involving many parties;
• Extensive updates on the role of emotions, ethics, and on-line technology in conflict resolution;
• Descriptions of the practice routines of experienced negotiators and mediators in preparing to intervene;
• A review of new and evolving mediation theories; and
• An analysis of recent developments in the law pertaining to the confidentiality of mediated settlement discussions.

About the Author
The Honourable George W. Adams, Q.C. is one of Canada's most experienced professional mediators. He is an award winning author as well as a former superior court judge, law professor, agency head, senior bureaucrat, and legal practitioner. He has used Mediating Justice to educate law students at the University of Toronto School of Law in negotiation theory and practice and to provide mediation training to senior administrative tribunal members and lawyers.

Dubbed the "guru" of mediation by the National Post, Adams has mediated in a vast range of legal conflict situations. In 1997 he resigned from the Ontario Superior Court of Justice, in a rare instance of a judge stepping down from the bench to establish a neutral dispute resolution practice.

For lawyers charged with drafting an international sales contract, this expanded and updated second edition is invaluable.

A collection of Problem-Based Learning cases designed to reinforce principles taught in forensic accounting/auditing courses throughout the United States.

Each case:

1. lays out the basic principles and parameters of analysis to be applied in uncovering and proving fraudulent activity in domestic and/or international operations;
2. provides a fact pattern and supporting documentation that allow students to not only uncover illegal activity, but also to prove such fraud in a court of law under American rules of evidence and courtroom procedure;
3. is designed for students to perform forensic investigation, alone or in teams, with the instructor serving as a facilitator; and
4. includes secondary documents that either corroborate the superficial accounting information initially provided or reveal anomalies and discrepancies pointing to who, what, when, where, how, and why.
