Through the media, war was generally perceived to be over in a blink. It was for this reason that Australians thought that they wouldn't be able to contribute to the war. The majority of the successful men were part of the AIF, a separate and purely volunteer army, which showed that young Australian men wanted to fight. Restrictions were also put in place to ensure that the most suitable men went to war. Lots of men were rejected. The restrictions for age were 18-35 yrs. chest measurement of at least 32 inches and a minimum height of 5 ft. 6 inches. (Australian War Memorial, 2013) One source reported that, "Rejected men stumbled in tears from the tables, unable to answer sons or mates left to the fortunes of war." (Ergo, 2012) The loss of 60,000 Australians was justified to a great extent because men decided to fight, despite the
Australian had only just become a federated country when war broke out and the British command had asked for the Australian and New Zealanders to join them their military, this was Australia’s first war as an independant country. At the time Australia’s government saw this as a chance to show the world that they weren’t just a nation descended from convicts and deserved a place in Britain’s great military tradition (Darlington, 2012; wiliam, 2017).

A potential liability dependent upon some future event occurring or not occurring. For example, a company is named as a defendant in a $1 million lawsuit. Does that mean the company automatically has a liability of $1 million? What if the lawsuit has no merit and can easily be defended? If it is probable that the company will lose and the amount can be estimated, a journal entry is prepared to debit Loss from Lawsuit and to credit Lawsuit Payable. If it is possible but not probable that the company will lose, the journal entry is not made but instead there will be a footnote disclosure. If the lawsuit is remote (a nuisance suit without any merit), there is no need for a journal entry and no need to disclose the
The definition of risk management which is given by the NCPI is the expectancy, identification, and assessment of a possible risk where a process is started to help take away any possible risks that can be associated with something or to help lower the amount of risk in which could be used to bring it down to a place which is deemed to be at more of a tolerable level. What this is doing is showing us that as we place certain control over risks any type of risk that is similar to these are then associated with each other. These risks are more easily controlled due to having them all in more of an organized fashion leading to our efforts to combat these risks to become more effective. This then helps these risks from becoming increased or even having other risks as a result. The whole notion of risk management is by acting on these risks before they become more serious we can prevent these actions from happening ultimately widening our control over them.
