What is the journal entry for a deposit that is refundable?
As the deposit is refundable, so it would probably be a liability. If its refundable within an year it's deposited, in that case it would be a current liability. But if it is to be paid after an year regardless of the time frame then, so it is a non current liability. So the entry is as follows:BANK/CASH Dr.LIABILITY Cr.
Why is silicon steel used to make transformer cores? Is it to reduce hysteresis loss or eddy current loss?
The performance of a transformer mainly depends upon the flux linkages between its windings. For efficient flux linking between the windings, one low reluctance magnetic path common to all windings should be provided in the transformer. This low reluctance magnetic path in transformer is known as **core of transformer**.The material used for the Core in a transformer is selected on the basis of its magnetic permeability and its characteristic hysterisis loop. A material with low hysterisis loop area and high permeability needs to be selected for higher efficiency of the transformer.The main problem with transformer core is, its hysteresis loss and eddy current loss in transformer. Hysteresis loss in transformer mainly depends upon its core materials. The core steel which has under gone through both the silicon alloying and cold rolling treatments (both treatments reduce the core losses further and increases the permeability of the alloy) is commonly known as CRGOS or Cold Rolled Grain Oriented Silicon Steel. This material is now universally used for manufacturing transformer core.Although this material has low specific iron loss but still; it has some disadvantages, like, it is susceptible to increase loss due to flux flow in direction other than grain orientation and it also susceptible to impaired performance due to impact of bending and blanking the cutting CRGOS sheet. Both the surfaces of the sheet are provided with an insulating of oxide coating.While on the other hand the eddy current losses are taken care by using laminations in the core. The eddy current losses depend on the thickness of the lamination. Hence this is kept to a minimum. These laminations are of the order of ~0.2 - 0.5 mm.
How long does does a judge have to rule on a motion to dismiss?
Some states have a 90 day rule but there is really no set time for a judge to make a decision. If he needs more time it usually means that the case is a very close call and the last thing you want to do is to try to hurry the judge up and anger him.Sometimes judges can take a year or more to render a ruling. Usually if there is a 90 day law all the judge has to do is call the parties into court again, advise them he needs more time and the 90 day clock starts over again.Most judges are significantly overloaded in their work and could be handling hundreds of cases at the same time. The more involved they are the longer a ruling will take.
Which are the best algorithmic trading strategies? So it can trade automatically stocks/FOREX/CFDs with no risk to the money traded? What is the best way to create it? A ready script? A language like MQL? What software/platform service is best?
Algorithmic Trading is a process to Buy or Sell a security based on some pre-defined set of rules which are backtested on Historical data. These rules can be based on Technical Analysis, charts, indicators or even Stock fundamentals. For example, suppose you have a trading plan that you would Buy a particular stock if it closes in Red for 5 consecutive days. You can formulate this rule into Algorithmic Trading system and even automate it so that Buy order is placed automatically when your condition is met. You may even define your stoploss, target and position sizing in the algorithm which would make your Trading life easier.In order to program an Algorithmic strategy, you would need to subscribe and learn tools like Amibroker or MT4. In these tools you can code your strategy and backtest it on historical data to gauge the performance of your system. Check out the below link for Amibroker Tutorial articles:Tutorials Archives - Trading TuitionsAlgorithmic Trading BenefitsIt’s said that your success in Trading depends on 30% market analysis, 30% risk management, 30% emotion control and 10% luck. If we keep luck aside, then Algorithmic systems can take care of rest 90%. Most of the Traders fail when emotions intervene in their trading decisions. Even the seasoned traders panic while pressing Buy/Sell button which eventually leads to loss. Also,Traders tend to ignore stoploss or book profits early which is again a drawback of manual trading. Algorithmic systems will take care of all these drawbacks associated with manual trading. Also,if you are busy with your day job and cannot devote time to trading, then you can simply automate your algorithm so that your computer can trade on behalf of you.Algorithmic Trading ExamplesCheck out the below links for Algorithmic Trading setups.
