Corporations that partner with auditors who specialize in the company’s industry reap cost savings and get a better picture of their finances, while auditors who “low-ball” their fees to compensate for a lack of experience by hiking their fees in subsequent years and produce lower-quality audits, a new study has...
Computer processing demands for artificial intelligence, or AI, are spurring increasing levels of deadly air pollution from power plants and backup diesel generators that continuously supply electricity to the fast-growing number of computer processing centers. This air pollution, a new UCR and Caltech study estimates, is expected to result in...
Deciding when to bring a hog to market has never been an easy task. To maximize profits, farmers must gauge changing animal weights, pork prices, feed costs, and pen space, while also keeping an inventory of ready-for-market pigs to meet long-term contractual obligations with meat processors. With so many variables...
