I hope Prof. Carlos understands that majority of his students are just beginners to accounting. Unless you're skilled with accounting, it's almost impossible to get a good grade in this class. His exams are very tricky and long. His HW do not even reflect exams at all.

Carlos
A. De Mello e Souza
Edmonds, Washington
As teacher or manager, my passion and expertise are in building computer-based decision support systems and in modeling data. In academia I have use these tools to investigate problems such as multiple-stage agency games, the association between free cash flows and business valuation, and linkages between gender, personality and moral reasoning. As financial planner at Exxon and Souza Cruz, and more recently as CFO and CEO of a Coca-Cola bottler in Brazil, I have used models to support short and long-term planning, as well as in merger and acquisition negotiations.
