I have a Yahoo email acct. If someone pastes a link in their email to me, I receive it broken up. It's a pain to try to go to the site as the link does not work. These emails come from a Yahoo group that I belong to. Any ideas why this is happening or how to correct?

I need some help understanding accruals.

I have tried most of the suggestions from Quickbooks community and Intuit website, I have one left to try, which is uninstall and re-install and get a new registry file (I think).

I currently buy skim milk. Does instant milk taste similar? Does it spoil, if so approximately how long?

I had a phone interview yesterday for an accounting position with several duties, one duty is fixed asset accounting. My depreciation knowledge is textbook only. The interviewer asked - name five forms of depreciation. I named straight-line, sum of the year digits, MACRS, double declining balance, weighted average. I have an in person interview Friday with more in-depth testing and I am pretty sure there will be a depreciation question. I want to focus on MACRS as that is more common. What would be a common test question, what will I need to answer it (probably a table will be provided) and how do I calculate? Please provide steps. Thanks!
