Managerial accounting The second allocation, proposed at the meeting, focuses on relative property values. This proposal would allocate cost to individual property owners based on unbiased and straightforward tax assessments of value that are proportional to property market values. The values given in the case reflect district values, and from these district values, an average lot value can be derived. Table 6 provides an example of this allocation scheme for the endangered lots.

1 Please could you tell me the normal range of values for the liver function test serum alkaline phosphatase. The only mention of the parameters is that a reading of 1000 serious liver condition.

2 What is the best single test of liver function to exclude liver cell failure in the routine work-up of a patient with early dementia?

3 How valuable is the measurement of the liver span in a physical examination?

5 Can jaundice occur early in schistosomal hepatic fibrosis and, if so, how?

6 My patient has been found to have a serum bilirubin of 34 mol/L (2 mg/dL) on three occasions. The other liver tests are normal. He tells me he has Gilbert's disease; how can I prove this?

7 Why is urinary urobilinogen increased in haemolytic jaundice? If the bilirubin in this condition is unconjugated, how does it reach the terminal ileum to be converted into urobilinogen?

8 How does cholestatic jaundice affect the kidney?

9 What is the mechanism by which cholestatic jaundice causes bradycardia?

10 Are 'jaundice' and 'icterus' one and the same? I was taught that icterus is yellowing of the sclera, while jaundice is yellowing of the skin and the mucous membranes. As a result, carotenaemia can produce jaundice but not icterus: is this so? I would be grateful if you would clarify this for me.
