The old adages that "cash is king" and "you can’t spend profits" still hold true today. But however well-known these sayings might be, it requires a change in mindset to properly implement a cash flow management system that predicts your business's runaway as accurately as possible. Key to this new mindset is understanding the difference between the Statement of Cash Flows, a historical look at the source and uses of cash, and the Cash Flow Statement, which uses transaction history and forward-l

Kroger and Albertsons have assailed the Federal Trade Commission's challenge to their merger, telling an Oregon federal judge that there's no need to preliminarily block the deal because the agency is pushing a "never before applied" theory that reducing head-to-head competition is illegal, which the grocery stores said is undone by the law and the companies' planned divestiture of 579 stores.
In reply to JR. Louisiana lost that case because they didn’t follow APA which a majority of appraisal boards today fail to follow and make rules without proper procedures. At that time you also had a different FTC and having spoken with Director Chopra last month this is a major issue in their radar. I am way too deep in this with information most don’t have.
In reply to Baggins. This is a waste of time and anger. It has been going on for years. The C&R movement died when the State of Louisiana went after AMCs with well documented cases of below C&R fees. And instead of going after the culprit, the DOJ/FTC filed suit against the State of Louisiana. They said the state was attempting “price fixing” This is a dead issue.

In this blog we’re going to explain how record-keeping is a critical component of proving that sustainability, and provide some simple templates to get y
This is like a time machine and fortune teller all in one. It’s a lot to read, and i didn’t realize then my nicely formatted document would be “re-formatted” to the FED specs. Yes, I also know there’s a there that should have been a their; things happen when you may have an above average “passion” about the topic.
Damage to the smaller housebuilder’s reputation will take time to heal but a takeover deal isn’t a deal until it’s signed Bellway’s plan to buy smaller housebuilder Crest Nicholson for £720m-ish in shares was proceeding smoothly as recently as last Thursday, or so we were told. “Good progress has been made on reciprocal due diligence with a number of elements satisfactorily completed by both parties,” purred the two boards in harmony.
In reply to Don Hawkins GA Lic CR. The so-called regulators have been our Achilles heel since the beginning. They were our only chance not having our independence abused by the AMCs. But it came evident immediately that all of the state boards were easily bullied by the AMC attorneys and lobby. Meanwhile REVAA set up shop in DC and started throwing their money around while the independent appraiser has been dog paddling trying not to drown in the rapids.
UK housebuilder said it did not intend to make a firm offer for its smaller rival after months of negotiations Business live – latest updates The UK housebuilder Bellway has walked away from a £720m takeover bid for its smaller rival Crest Nicholson after months of negotiations.

In reply to Donna Halfpenny on Facebook. I DID step up and got an email from CFPB a week ago saying in essence, “uh, we may not have received your comment, so please re-send” I spent alot of time making that comment so WTF. I do not trust these quasi-government agencies.

In reply to Frustrated Appraiser. It is a case of the wolves guarding the chicken coop. Most appraisers are cowardly. Not confident. The Heritage Foundation hates Experts. Judges, presidents, congressmen, never congresswoman, neither suit the nationalist agenda to fulfill Project 2025. Just bid to everyone your high fee, take your time to do a proper job.
