  • soil profile analytical database for europe spade reconstruction and validation of the measured data spade m
    Geografisk Tidsskrift-danish Journal of Geography, 2006
    Co-Authors: Roland Hiederer, Robert J A Jones, Joel Daroussin
    Abstract:

    Abstract Geografisk Tidsskrift, Danish Journal of Geography 106(1):71–85, 2006 The Soil Profile Analytical Database of Europe of Measured profiles (SPADE/M) was created to provide a common structure for storing harmonized information on typical soil profile properties of European soils. The main difficulty encountered in constructing the database was the transfer of the source data from individual Electronic Spreadsheet pages to the more rigid structure of a relational database. The data in Spreadsheet format had been collected more than 12 years earlier but pressure was mounting for the capability to link these data to the Soil Map of Europe. A semi-automatic process was implemented to transfer data from nominal positions on the Spreadsheet page to an intermediate structure highlighting any deviations from expected values. Conflicting situations were solved by manual intervention and expert judgement. Data in the intermediate structure were subjected to a validation procedure with the aim of storing unif...

  • logical steps in the automated lachance traill xrf matrix correction method utilizing an Electronic Spreadsheet
    2000
    Co-Authors: Anthony J Klimasara
    Abstract:

    The XRF community is very specific because the basic XRF Matrix Corrections software is either supplied with the newer equipment or did not exist at all when the equipment was purchased 10 + years ago. It is true that such software can be purchased from third parties and the spectrometer can be upgraded. However, all the matrix corrections can be done on the popular Electronic Spreadsheet and that should be the first and perhaps the last choice for the software upgrade. The popular Electronic Spreadsheets are very handy because they allow one to introduce a new life into the older spectrometers and they can be used as an other choice for the newest XRF spectrometers. Some XRF analysts are so busy with day-to-day tasks that they have not any time left for any new developments. In such a case they have to be satisfied with the existing manufacturer’s software; however, they should at least be aware that Spreadsheet methods could shed new light on the matrix correction methods. Many times in the past this Spreadsheet approach was criticized and the following questions were asked: “ I know, you use a Spreadsheet, but what about the matrix corrections? You are missing that part”. The answer here is that the matrix corrections are done here automatically, they do exist and we use them. However, the matrix corrections are implemented here slightly differently, we adjust the coordinates we are working with to implement the Lachance-Trail1 equation for the matrix correction process. This method is simpler and mathematically is justified and preferred as was shown in previous publications. 1,8-13 With any new software method one has to learn the basic logical steps of how to use it properly. The role of this paper is to discuss these steps so the picture of the Spreadsheet Application will be very clear. This should encourage the readers to use the Spreadsheet Program at ease when XRF matrix corrections are required. The list of all Spreadsheet Applications for XRF would be very long. The basic steps in tuning Electronic Spreadsheet for XRF Matrix Correction tasks will be revealed. Examples will be given for Quattro Pro @ Version 6.0 for Windows 3.1 or Version 8.0 for Win 95. Transfer them to the Lotus l-2-3 @ or Excel @ can be done easily.

  • Electronic Spreadsheets for XRF - Survey and Comparison
    Advances in X-ray Analysis, 1995
    Co-Authors: Anthony J Klimasara
    Abstract:

    The Electronic Spreadsheet market for the IBM or compatible PC has become competitive. One can find a dozen or more different Spreadsheet programs available today which are very nicely graphically “dressed,” Computer journals indicate that the main Spreadsheet competitors.

  • Mathematical Modeling of XRF Matrix Correction Algorithms With an Electronic Spreadsheet
    Advances in X-ray Analysis, 1993
    Co-Authors: Anthony J Klimasara
    Abstract:

    AbstractIt will be demonstrated that the Lachance-Traill, and Lucas-Tooth and Price matrix correction algorithms can easily be applied to Spreadsheet stored XRF data.The structure of Spreadsheet stored data in Quantitative XRF Analysis, the utilization of built-in Spreadsheet functions essential for data processing and the utilization of Spreadsheet Graphics for plotting of corrected and uncorrected XRF data will be presented.Development of modern Electronic Spreadsheets has reached the point where they can readily be used for almost any type of laboratory task, including: Data Plotting, Statistical Data Analysis, Report Writing and Publishing, Slide Presentations, etc. This valuable tool can easily be added to older equipment that usually lacks sophisticated XRF software. It can also become an auxiliary tool to modern XRF spectrometers equipped with advanced XRF software.The Spreadsheet approach gives the analyst freedom of choice to process data according to personal/analytical preferences circumventing the rigidity of software supplied with the equipment. The Spreadsheet approach also possesses educational value since it presents the basic ingredients of Matrix Correction in clear and concise table fashion. Addrtionaliy, the Spreadsheet program is an excellent tool for demonstrating and evaluating different matrix correction models commonly used in X-ray Spectroscopy.It will also be shown tliat Spreadsheet Graphics are capable of handling the two-theta scans of XRF or XRD data gathered from older DEC/PDP-11 based Rigaku Equipment. This results in excellent hard copies of the two-theta scans, regardless of the output device.A mathematical background leading to the Spreadsheet approach was partially presented in the paper “A mathematical comparison of the Lachance-Traill Matrix correction procedure with statistical multiple linear regression analysis in XRF applications” (41st Annual Denver X-ray Conference, Colorado Springs, 1992).

  • S CORPORATIONS AND IRC SECTION 199A:INCORPORATING EXCEL INTO TAX PLANNING SCENARIOS
    Issues in Accounting Education, 2020
    Co-Authors: Lauren A Cooper, Kimberly G. Key, Mollie E. Mathis
    Abstract:

    This case requires students to take a multi-year tax planning perspective for an S Corporation owner-employee. The case emphasizes the new Internal Revenue Code (IRC) {section sign}199A deduction (qualified business income (QBI) deduction) and Electronic Spreadsheet skills. The case also includes reasonable compensation and cost recovery issues. Students perform tax research to identify factors relevant to QBI deductions and apply this research to make QBI deduction calculations. Then, students demonstrate knowledge of the flow-through entity by incorporating IRS rules and logic into Electronic Spreadsheets. Finally, students improve their tax-related decision-making by evaluating scenarios related to the QBI deduction in a flow-through entity setting.
