Intelligence, on the other hand, intelligence has various definitions, the most common description being the ability to learn new things and develop new skills. Intelligence and achievement complement each other. In this paper, we are going to explore the two subjects, intelligence, and achievement in terms of definitions and testing.   3 Different psychologists and scholars have attempted to define intelligence over the years according to their understanding of the human mind—definitions of intelligence, therefore different from one scholar to the other. According to Alfred Binnet (Malone & Bernstein, 2015), intelligence refers to one’s ability to adapt to one’s circumstances. In this definition, intelligence is otherwise known as initiative, good sense, or practical sense. Binnets definition of intelligence claims that an intelligent person can make conscious decisions about their circumstances.

Question 1: Single-Step Income Statement and a Multistep Income Statement Pros and Cons of Single-Step Income Statement A single-step income statement is one that analyses the expenses of a business in one column without subdividing it into sections. This income statement has two significant advantages. First is that it makes record keeping for a small business very easy because there is no need to subdivide the expenses column (Hanks, 2018). Secondly, it is easy to read and interpret. This statement is appropriate for a simple business that does not need much data recording.  The disadvantage of a single-step comment is that it is too much simplified that it ends up missing essential details of a business. This over-simplification may make the company miss out on potential investors. Pros and Cons of a Multiple-Step Income Statement A multiple-step income statement is one that is more detailed than the single-step report. The advantages of multiple steps are that it gives more details about a business venture. It shows the difference between its sales and the cost of goods sold (Hanks, 2018). This…

Major Assignment 3 Research Overview Research and planning are essential components of the technical writing process because it is at this stage that the writer sources for and analyzes diverse information, regarding the subject and audience in question, to create clear documentation.[1] This stage is the most critical part, and, as I have discovered so far in planning for the major assignment, it makes or breaks the quality of one’s writing. My specific focus is on understanding the audience according to levels of interest, roles and capacities, and general disposition. As such, I have created a simple checklist to classify what information each type of reader is interested in and why they need it, and their tolerance for the message. I followed Richard Johnson-Sheehan’s perspectives in his book, “Technical Communication Today,” on how to analyze different types of readers from primary readers, who make the decisions, to the tertiary (evaluators) and gatekeepers (supervisors) levels. For instance, I have discovered that while top education officials are open-minded and optimistic about the potential of volunteerism among college students, they are cautious in…
