    Paper presented at the Royal Musicological Association Annual Conference, University of Bristol, 13-15 September 2018. This paper theorises the nature of closure (how songs end) in popular music, utilising a range of examples from the 1970s progressive and class rock repertoire. It builds on the work of analytical musicologists from the classical tradition to develop a methodology that is applicable in a popular context

    Effect of cloud accounting on an accounting firm’s costs

    Get PDF
    The accounting profession experienced a significant revolution when paper-based practices, such as manual bookkeeping of ledgers and trial balances, shifted to the use of specialised accounting software. However, most of the accounting software used by accounting firms were standalone packages that were not supported by the Web; therefore the demand from accounting firms for an integrated software that could act more like an overall business management system which could cater for various financial activities such as accounts, tax, payroll, administrative tasks and point of sales systems emerged. The demand for having a single integrated platform for all accounting services with greater accessibility to real time information gave rise to cloud based accounting software applications. The accelerating speed at which accounting firms are adopting cloud accounting software leads us to the primary research question of understanding the effects the introduction of cloud accounting software has on the operational cost of accounting firms. This study also aims to investigate the factors that motivate small accounting firms to embrace cloud technology. The primary method for data collection was through the distribution of questionnaires to 6 Small Accounting firms in Hamilton who have adopted the use of cloud accounting software. The researcher was able to gather some interesting findings from this study, in terms of understanding the effect of staff training and information technology costs that Accounting firms are faced with through the implementation of cloud accounting software. The majority of firms in this study agreed that they have experienced an overall increase in their operational costs, but believe that there has been an increase in their general organisational efficiency

    Keeping profits in New Zealand

    The tourism industry is the second biggest for New Zealand and is expected to regain the top spot if current, exponential growth continues. Online travel agencies (OTAs) such as those owned by Expedia Inc. and Booking Holdings Inc. facilitate this boom by encouraging travellers to visit beautiful locations, but are taking huge chunks of this income away from the local Gross-Domestic Product (GDP) in the commission they charge on every night of accommodation booked. One of the largest consumers of New Zealand’s tourism industry is Chinese nationals. This study looks at feasibility of a small player developing an app in a market full of large corporates that are dominating the playing field. The primary research used mixed methods and sought to reach 120 questionnaire respondents and 10 interview participants which uncovered thoughts on stakeholders on either side of the discussion, the China-based potential customers and the New Zealand-based accommodation providers. Preliminary results indicate that Chinese nationals are often likely to conduct thorough research when making decisions about international travel and a large portion are enthused about the prospect of regular international travel. Accommodation providers in New Zealand are rarely hesitant to support a local OTA as they are often frustrated with the poor service received from the large corporates. Developing an app that is based in China and attempts to market the New Zealand tourism industry will be a difficult proposition but is plausible with the implementation of a marketing plan that is strategically thought out
