1. The consultant analyzed Galaxy Inc.'s costs and profits for its two products, R2D2 and BB8, using both traditional costing and activity-based costing. 2. Under traditional costing, both products appeared profitable. However, ABC revealed that BB8 was actually unprofitable due to higher overhead costs associated with its production. 3. The consultant recommended not expanding BB8 sales or production since it loses money for the company. Focusing on more profitable products like R2D2 would improve overall profits. ABC provides more accurate cost information to make better strategic decisions.

Main Discussion Substance Abuse and InterventionWhen a family .docx
Main Discussion
Substance Abuse and Intervention
When a family member is suffering from any type of substance abuse, this may have a negative effect on the family as a whole. There are a number of ways for families to deal with a family member’s substance abuse that is typically unhealthy or dysfunctional. This depends on who is abusing the substance. If it is a parent with the substance abuse issue, children will typically act out in school by getting into trouble or bullying. In most cases, depending on the age of the child, they do not know who to tell or how to express what is going on at home. Depending on the nature of the substance abuse and those that are involved, in some circumstances children are taken away and put into foster care when other family members are not able to care for the children.
When parents abuse drugs or alcohol, the children can end up in a quagmire. They often adopt a role which helps the family, but they may get stuck in the role and neglect their own needs; this is particularly true with older children. One of these roles is the scapegoat. According to Gladding (2015) the scapegoat is “often a child who attempts to distract the family focus away from the substance abuser by acting out in a disruptive manner and being blamed for the family’s problems.” Additionally, this individual believes it is their fault when things go wrong. The faults of this individual are focused on, which presents a distraction for the family and the real issues at hand. As a result this individual will appear to be rebellious, troublesome, lawbreaking, tough…..and may be at risk of abusing drugs or alcohol themselves. Internally, this individual is frequently full of hurt, fear, loneliness, and rejection, feeling angry at the injustice of how they are being treated (Gladding, 2015).
Although there are various interventions, the one evidence based intervention that I would utilize for this family would be the Adlerian Therapy. This type of therapy is a positive approach that provides encouragement to the client as well as their family. It is intended to augment the social concerns of the family members, mostly those who are most affected by the abuse. According to Gladding (2015), “one way to increase social interest and consequently the health and functioning of the family is to work with the parents and children in multiple ways….this perspective is to get parents involved in a group that helps increase their self-esteem as well as their skill.” The benefit of make use of the Adlerian Therapy is that it is especially acclimatized and can be utilized anytime with almost anyone. It educates individuals that they control their own destiny. Clients are evaluated by looking at past experiences that may have caused them to act in a particular way. The focus is also on the client as a whole (mind, body, soul), with the objective of overcoming issues by readjusting their lifestyle (Gladding, 2015).

Topic Chosen
Domestic violence has been a topic of debate and scrutiny in many countries over the years with the line of argument changing depending on the culture in question. Although, many strides have been made in preventing the occurrence and frequency of domestic violence, it still remain a problem in society. Due to its multifaceted nature, many people do not have a complete understanding of what domestic violence is and the intricacies involved they tend to neglect of ignore its presence in society. Unfortunately, ignoring it and neglecting or even doing the bare minimum is not an effective way of dealing with the issue. To begin with domestic violence can be defined as a pattern of constantly abusing a partner in four main forms which are emotionally, physically, psychologically and verbally in a domestic setting such as cohabitation, marriage or intimate relationship. The cycle is repeated in most cases with the victim being exposed to dire consequences and the perpetrator being worse with each abuse. The need to break fatal cycles is the fundamental reason why domestic violence is the narrowed topic for this paper. It was chosen because the discussions on this issue need to continue as a way of sensitizing people and getting permanent solutions to the problem. Understanding what domestic violence is, spreading the ways one can help a victim in an abusive relationship as well as assist the abuser and learning to prevent situations such as this is one way of getting the conversation going. Many people who may not be aware of the challenge gain insight which assists in the fight against domestic violence.
Primary Audience/ Reader
Since domestic violence is an issue that affects everybody is society both directly and indirectly it is important that all people are included in tackling the problem. However, for precision in this essay, the primary audience includes the victims, the family, and friends to both the abuser and victim and the abuser. On the other hand, the primary reader would be the general society since they issue discussed in the paper illustrate the elements within the complex topic simplifying it for the general audience who at times feel excluded or non-essential in this problem. Research has shown that in most cases the victims gets to a point in the abusive relationship where they begin to blame themselves for the repeated bouts of abuse in different forms. This self-blame has many other negative impacts attached to it such as a reduced self-esteem, self-hatred and a warped understanding of love and the mechanisms of a relationship.
Due to these consequences, it is important for victims to be helped out of abusive relationships to save them and also restore hope in them. One of the ways this objective can be achieved is through clear communication that none of the abuse is their fa ...

The document discusses social marketing and how it differs from other approaches. Social marketing aims to influence voluntary behavior change for social good, using marketing principles. Unlike some other approaches, social marketing recognizes that people act in self-interest, so the approach must demonstrate to consumers how the behavior change benefits them. It focuses on benefiting the consumer and society, not just accepting an idea.
Tips for mastering the write-ups There rarely exist right answe
Tips for mastering the write-ups:
There rarely exist right answers to these questions. That’s what makes the prompts interesting,
useful, and fun (we hope). Good write-ups will always reflect a solid understanding of the
material but more importantly you should be able to apply the concepts to the prompt. This means
that you should not provide definitions and examples from the reading, but instead figure out
what concepts are relevant and how they apply to this business situation.
The following are a few tangible, specific tips based on years of grading write-ups. I offer them to
you in roughly decreasing order of how frustrating their violations are to a grader.
1. Don’t regurgitate the reading. You never need to waste space including definitions from the
reading. Write as if your audience not only has read the assigned materials but also knows
them well. When necessary, cite a concept as briefly as possible. The fact that you’ve done
the reading should be revealed to us by your thinking, NOT by some quotation.
2. Start quickly and end abruptly. For these short write-ups, introductions, background, and
conclusions are entirely unnecessary. Even worse, they take away space that is better used in
other ways. We don’t expect these things to read like English essays. Nor are we strangers to
why you’re writing in the first place. Treat it like an email to a colleague and jump right in.
3. Choose specific over abstract. Precision is good. It’s good for communication, and it’s good
for sharpening thinking. When you feel yourself getting fuzzy, think to yourself: I need an
example. We love examples. Make it real.
4. Be realistic. There is nothing more irritating than a cute suggestion (for example, of how an
organization might mitigate a particular bias) that works theoretically but is utterly infeasible
in the real world. Perhaps the best criterion is to ask yourself if you’d be willing to sit in a
manager’s office advocating his or her use of your recommendation.
5. Less is more. Believe it or not, a common mistake is to include too many ideas — not
because too many ideas itself is bad, but because these ideas, as intriguing, tantalizing, and,
yes, right as they might be, are often too poorly developed. Don’t make this mistake! We’re
not impressed with laundry lists. It’s much better to write about a few things really well.
Oh, and have fun! This is an opportunity to be creative (the risk-reward tradeoff for creativity is
very attractive). A student who is thoughtful and having fun when writing these is generally going
to do pretty well. And get more out of it. Thanks!

PCN-501 Case Study
Jed: Relapse Prevention Plan
Jed is a 38-year-old welder who came into the treatment center after being arrested for drinking and driving (DUI/DWI). His attorney has suggested that he quit drinking and enter treatment, at least until his trial, which is scheduled to occur in two months. Jed does not anticipate serving jail time, but he believes that treatment could strengthen his legal case. After his first arrest for DUI two years ago, he simply paid a fine and attended a special driver's education program for six weeks. Jed found the program to be a “waste of time.”
Jed has been married for 8 years and has two daughters, aged 8 and 6. He has had numerous arguments with his wife, Emily, concerning his drinking. He gets very angry and defensive when she confronts him about his heavy drinking and he asserts that he is not an alcoholic. He knows this is true because his father was an alcoholic and Jed says that he is not like his father. His father died as the result of a fight that occurred in traffic when he was drunk. Jed says that his father used to “beat the tar” out of him and his brother when he was drunk and that his father always belittled, taunted, and threatened their mother, whether he was drunk or sober. Jed references that his family is Irish and that it was cultural normal to drink and enjoy alcohol and that all of his family and relatives drink in excess.
Jed's work history is very good; he misses less than one day per year. He works the day shift on weekdays, putting in time-and-a-half on most Saturdays. He is well regarded by his supervisors and peers at work. He is fearful that his employer will find out about his treatment (it is being covered by his HMO), and that people at work will learn about the second DUI arrest.
Jed drinks with his buddies from the plant, and does not think that his drinking is any more than what they do. He was just “unlucky” and was caught doing what everyone else seems to get away with. Jed's drinking is very predictable: he drinks 8-9 beers on a weeknight. Several of these are consumed at the bar with friends, the remainder at home over the course of the evening. He usually falls asleep in front of the television. When he is not working on Saturdays, he often drinks several 12-packs between Friday and Sunday. A typical Saturday involves getting up at 10:00 a.m., playing soccer with friends, and going to the bar for the rest of the day and night. This pattern leads to arguments with Emily, who calls him a “lousy father.” At times, Jed has had unsettling episodes of being unable to recall what happened while drinking. He has commented to friends that “maybe I overdo it a bit.” Several times, he has attempted to cut down on his drinking, especially after the last DUI. He once attended a few AA meetings, but did not feel that AA was helpful: "It was listening to a lot of guys whining…" and he especially did not care for the prayers.
Despite these attempts, Jed has experienced incr.

1. If you were an owner or leader in this business, what could you do to help employees understand the value of excellent customer service?
To help employees to understand the value of excellent customer service, I would create two scenarios for them to notice the difference. In one case, they would approach me, whereby I would be playing the role of an employee. I would then speak rudely to them and record their reaction. In the next scenario, they would approach me, and I would treat them with courtesy and respect. After these sessions, I would ask them to choose which of the two employees they would deal with, as customers. Based on this, they will realize that any interaction with the customer plays a big role in determining whether the customer returns to the company or goes away forever (Goodman 2009).
2. Who are your external customers and what are their specific needs? (Describe at least three.)
External partners are individuals who seek a service or product from an organization. There are three external customers of IAS (Tschohl, 2011). These include car buyers, who are looking for used cars to buy that are in good condition. The second customer is the local city government; which depends on IAS for servicing of their cars. Third is the building contractor who also depends on IAS for servicing of their cars.
3. Who are your internal customers and what are their specific needs? (Describe at least three
Internal customers are individuals within the organization who depend on their colleagues to fulfill their duties. These include the service manager, salespeople and the qualified mechanics. The service manager depends on his team of qualified mechanics to fulfill his duties. Sales people depend on other staff to fulfill customer needs. Third, the qualified mechanics will rely on the service manager to assign them tasks.
4. What are some starting points for developing the core competencies we discussed in your selected business? Be as specific as possible
The starting point for developing the core competencies is teaching the staff the proper approach to dealing with customers. Ray should be able to promise only what he can deliver to the clients and guide his team to effectively handling customer repairs. Secondly, there should be teamwork within the organization so that all employees are aware of the activities taking place within the organization. In this case, the sales team should sell the repair aspect of the business in addition to selling of the main product, which is used cars.

The document discusses how the atomic bombs dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki in 1945 revolutionized warfare and changed the world forever. It killed over 140,000 people instantly and caused injuries from radiation, heat and blast waves. While it ended WWII, it also began the Cold War arms race between the US and Soviet Union that created a new nuclear threat. The destructive power of nuclear weapons spread global fear of their potential use.

The document discusses whether the United States economy would benefit from returning to the gold standard. It notes that supporters of returning to the gold standard argue that it would create more stability for the U.S. dollar by keeping a constant level of gold backing the currency. However, others argue that the amount of gold available is limited and may not be sufficient to back the entire money supply. The document explores the pros and cons of returning to the gold standard versus adopting alternative solutions to support the U.S. economy.

DECIDING WHAT’S RIGHT:
A PRESCRIPTIVE APPROACH
INTRODUCTION
This chapter begins the part of the book that focuses on ethical decision making as
something that individuals do. Many, if not most ethical decisions in business organi-
zations are made by individuals like you. In later chapters, we will address how the
organizational context and the broader business environment also affect individual
ethical decision making.
There are two ways to think about individual ethical decision making—the pre-
scriptive approach and the descriptive approach. This chapter covers the prescriptive
approach. It is derived from ethical theories in philosophy and offers decision-
making tools (ways of thinking about ethical choices) that help you decide what deci-
sion you should make as a ‘‘conscientious moral agent’’ who thinks carefully about
ethical choices
1
and who wants to make the ethically ‘‘right’’ decision. Our assump-
tion is that your intentions are good and that your goal is to do the right thing. So in
this chapter we introduce ethical decision-making tools that can help you do just that,
and we’ll explain how you can integrate them and use them in a practical way.
We know, however, that people don’t always make the best decision. Prescrip-
tions aren’t always followed. So it’s helpful to understand how people’s minds
work— how people really make decisions. The descriptive approach, discussed in
Chapter 3, relies on psychological research to describe how people actually make
ethical decisions (rather than how they should make them). It focuses in particular on
individual characteristics that influence how individuals think and on cognitive limi-
tations that often keep people from making the best possible ethical decisions. Hope-
fully, if we understand both approaches, we can improve our ethical decision making.
Now let’s learn about the prescriptive approach.
ETHICAL DILEMMAS
Many ethical choices are clear-cut enough that we can decide what to do rather easily
because they pit ‘‘right’’ against ‘‘wrong.’’ Is deciding whether to embezzle corporate
funds a tough ethical dilemma? Not really, because embezzling is stealing and it’s
38
wrong, period. There’s not much of a ‘‘dilemma’’ there. But things can get pretty
murky in situations where two or more important values, rights, or responsibilities
conflict and we have to choose between equally unpleasant alternatives. We define
an ethical dilemma as a situation where two or more ‘‘right’’ values are in conflict.
Consider the following ethical dilemma.

Here are the key benefits of compression stockings for edema:
- Improve blood flow by applying graduated, circumferential pressure to the legs which helps push blood back to the heart. This reduces pooling of blood in the legs.
- Reduce swelling by gently squeezing leg muscles to promote lymphatic drainage and removal of excess fluid from tissues.
- Prevent worsening of edema by maintaining circulation and fluid balance in the legs.
- Improve symptoms like heavy, tired legs and aching muscles caused by fluid build up.
- Allow for improved mobility and less discomfort when standing or walking for people with conditions causing leg edema.
- Provide all-day edema management with proper fitting, medical-grade compression

Chapter 5 Values and Ethical Dilemmas
Betty is advising a welfare recipient on how to deal with a welfare worker. The worker is required by law to ask the client where her former husband is and to give his Social Security number. Then the worker will turn over this information to the Department of Revenue, which will pursue the man aggressively for support. The welfare recipient knows where her former husband is, but is afraid to tell the worker because her husband had beaten her and she fears he would be abusive to her again. The woman asked what she should do. Betty knows it is wrong to lie to the worker, yet she also knows that it would be in the woman’s best interest to tell the worker that she doesn’t know where her former husband is. What should Betty tell the woman? What would you do?
Linda is a case worker in the child welfare department. The school guidance counselor has reported a mother for neglect of her child. The child is malnourished and listless. She cannot apply herself to her studies. Linda talked with the mother and found out that she formerly had received money from Transitional Assistance to Needy Families (TANF), but had reached that state’s two-year time limit and had been cut off from TANF. She tried to feed her child and often went hungry herself, but even with food stamps, she did not have enough money to feed the child adequately.
Linda’s supervisor advised her to place the child in foster care, but Linda knew that the agency did not have enough good foster parents and was having trouble recruiting them because so many women were working, and the agency did not pay enough to foster parents to make it worth their while to be foster parents. She could place the child in a foster home where there were already more children than the agency usually allowed, but would the child be any better off than in her own home? It would be traumatic for the child to be taken from her mother whom she loved. Yet she would probably get enough to eat in this foster home, even though the foster mother would not be able to give her the attention that she needs. What should Linda do?
Every attitude and value carries with it the seeds of conflict and insoluble dilemmas. Debates about the ethics of helping are not just mental gymnastics best left to university scholars or cloistered philosophers. Human service workers face dilemmas or value conflicts of one sort or another every day, no matter what their role in an agency.
ethics of helping
An ethical commitment to help others rather than engage in dog-eat-dog competition.
Sometimes there are conflicts between what we have been taught is correct behavior and what our clients do. For example, perhaps our parents, church, and school taught us that it is wrong for a woman to get an abortion; yet we may work with many people who do not share this value. Or perhaps, because everyone we knew said so, we might believe that most welfare recipients are lazy people avoiding work. Yet we find th ...

“YOUR ABUSIVE PARTNER DOESN’T HAVE A PROBLEM WITH HIS ANGER; HE HAS A PROBLEM WITH YOUR ANGER.
One of the basic human rights he takes away from you is the right to be angry with him. No matter how badly he treats you, he believes that your voice shouldn’t rise and your blood shouldn’t boil. The privilege of rage is reserved for him alone. When your anger does jump out of you—as will happen to any abused woman from time to time—he is likely to try to jam it back down your throat as quickly as he can. Then he uses your anger against you to prove what an irrational person you are. Abuse can make you feel straitjacketed. You may develop physical or emotional reactions to swallowing your anger, such as depression, nightmares, emotional numbing, or eating and sleeping problems, which your partner may use as an excuse to belittle you further or make you feel crazy.” Let's break this...........

Joseph Conrad's novella Heart of Darkness explores themes of morality. The story follows a man named Marlow up the Congo River into the African interior and his encounter with the ivory trader Kurtz. The journey reveals how easily civilization can fall away and human nature give in to darker impulses when detached from society and its constraints. The story examines moral philosophy and humanity's capacity for both good and evil in even the most civilized of men when placed in unfamiliar environments without oversight. It raises questions about the nature of colonialism and mankind's relationship with so-called "civilized" and "uncivilized" parts of the world.

The document discusses whether the United States economy would benefit from returning to the gold standard. It notes that supporters of returning to the gold standard argue that it would create more stability for the U.S. dollar by keeping a constant level of gold backing the currency. However, others argue that the amount of gold available is limited and may not be sufficient to back the entire money supply. The document explores the pros and cons of returning to the gold standard versus adopting alternative solutions to support the U.S. economy.

DECIDING WHAT’S RIGHT:
A PRESCRIPTIVE APPROACH
INTRODUCTION
This chapter begins the part of the book that focuses on ethical decision making as
something that individuals do. Many, if not most ethical decisions in business organi-
zations are made by individuals like you. In later chapters, we will address how the
organizational context and the broader business environment also affect individual
ethical decision making.
There are two ways to think about individual ethical decision making—the pre-
scriptive approach and the descriptive approach. This chapter covers the prescriptive
approach. It is derived from ethical theories in philosophy and offers decision-
making tools (ways of thinking about ethical choices) that help you decide what deci-
sion you should make as a ‘‘conscientious moral agent’’ who thinks carefully about
ethical choices
1
and who wants to make the ethically ‘‘right’’ decision. Our assump-
tion is that your intentions are good and that your goal is to do the right thing. So in
this chapter we introduce ethical decision-making tools that can help you do just that,
and we’ll explain how you can integrate them and use them in a practical way.
We know, however, that people don’t always make the best decision. Prescrip-
tions aren’t always followed. So it’s helpful to understand how people’s minds
work— how people really make decisions. The descriptive approach, discussed in
Chapter 3, relies on psychological research to describe how people actually make
ethical decisions (rather than how they should make them). It focuses in particular on
individual characteristics that influence how individuals think and on cognitive limi-
tations that often keep people from making the best possible ethical decisions. Hope-
fully, if we understand both approaches, we can improve our ethical decision making.
Now let’s learn about the prescriptive approach.
ETHICAL DILEMMAS
Many ethical choices are clear-cut enough that we can decide what to do rather easily
because they pit ‘‘right’’ against ‘‘wrong.’’ Is deciding whether to embezzle corporate
funds a tough ethical dilemma? Not really, because embezzling is stealing and it’s
38
wrong, period. There’s not much of a ‘‘dilemma’’ there. But things can get pretty
murky in situations where two or more important values, rights, or responsibilities
conflict and we have to choose between equally unpleasant alternatives. We define
an ethical dilemma as a situation where two or more ‘‘right’’ values are in conflict.
Consider the following ethical dilemma.

Case Study Scenario Part 3IntroductionThis media piece exp.docx
Case Study Scenario Part 3
Introduction
This media piece explains four ethical theories in order to prepare you for the Unit 3 assignment,
Case Study Resolution
. This media piece also includes parts 1 and 2 of the case study videos for your review.
Part 3
Deontology
The ethical position to do what is right out of duty or obligation. It is often called rule-based ethics.
Deontology has been described as "absolutist," "universal," and "impersonal" (Kant, 1785/1959). It prioritizes absolute obligations over consequences. In this moral framework, ethical decision making is the rational act of applying universal principles to all situations irrespective of specific relations, contexts, or consequences. This reflects Immanuel Kant's conviction that ethical decisions cannot vary or be influenced by special circumstances or relationships. Rather, a decision is "moral" only if a rational person believes the act resulting from the decision should be universally followed in all situations. For Kant, respect for the worth of all persons was one such universal principle. A course of action that results in a person being used simply as a means for others' gains would ethically unacceptable.
With respect to deception in research, from a deontological perspective, since we would not believe it moral to intentionally deceive individuals in some other context, neither potential benefits to society nor the effectiveness of participant debriefing for a particular deception study can morally justify intentionally deceiving persons about the purpose or nature of a research study. Further, deception in research would not be ethically permissible since intentionally disguising the nature of the study for the goals of research violates the moral obligation to respect each participant's intrinsic worth by undermining individuals' right to make rational and autonomous decisions regarding participation (Fisher & Fyrberg, 1994).
Utilitarianism
The ethical position depends on the consequences of the action with the goal being producing the most good.
Utilitarian theory prioritizes the consequences (or utility) of an act over the application of universal principles (Mill, 1861/1957). From this perspective, an ethical decision is situation specific and must be governed by a risk-benefit calculus that determines which act will produce the greatest possible balance of good over bad consequences. An "act utilitarian" makes an ethical decision by evaluating the consequences of an act for a given situation. A "rule utilitarian" makes an ethical decision by evaluating whether following a general rule in all similar situation would create the greater good. Like deontology, utilitarianism is impersonal: It does not take into account interpersonal and relational features of ethical responsibility. From this perspective, psychologists' obligations to those with whom they work can be superseded by an action that would produce a greater good for others (Fisher, 1999).

CASE STUDY RUBRIC MICROBIOLOGY For the Case Study assig.docx
CASE STUDY RUBRIC MICROBIOLOGY
For the Case Study assignment the current pathogen selections may be requested by sending
an email to your instructor!
Assigned Case Study Problem:
You will create a case study for a microbial infection selected from the current pathogen list. Your case
study will be assembled using a detailed rubric (see below). Upon completion, you will submit your
case study to the Blackboard gradebook in Unit 5 and to SafeAssign.
How to create a case study
The case studies are meant to be an enjoyable, interesting, and informative assignment. This is your
chance to show that you understand the key teaching points about a microbe and to communicate
these points in a written format.
What information belongs in my case study?
Have at least 3-4 key referenced points in each of the five areas shown in the Case Study Information
Chart (see below). The left-hand heading in the chart suggests the type of information requested for the
pathogen. Outlines can be in whatever form you prefer (bullets/charts/outlines/diagrams or a mix). Be
sure to include two discussion questions (and provide complete answers) that you can incorporate
into your case study (place them at the end of your write-up). These questions should help connect your
case to other material in the course. For example, what other microbes have an A-B toxin? What other
viruses are transmitted by fecal-oral spread?
How much information should I provide for my case study?
For the Case Study, you are asked to provide at least the information requested in the chart below. The
boxed questions are suggestions for the minimum amount of information within each category. The
more detailed the information, the better the study. You may consult your textbook, CDC, WHO, Access
Medicine, Google Scholar, NCBI, WebMD, etc. to find the information. For example, if you perform a
Google search using the name of the pathogen and the word ‘vaccine’, you will find information on
current vaccines (if any), those in clinical trials, vaccines used only in animals, etc.
Case Study Information Chart
Typical Case What does a typical case look like? Use the standard format for a
patient presentation with chief complaint (CC), history of present illness
(HPI), key physical exam details (PE), lab findings, signature signs, and
any other important findings.
Description of the infectious
agent
If it is a bacterium, how is it classified? If it is a virus, what kind of
nucleic acid does it have? Does it target specific cellular types
(tropism)? Does it form a spore? Is it aerobic? Is it intracellular? Can it
only be grown in a specific type of media? How is it distinguished from
other members of the species? Does the pathogen have a significant
history with humans or animals?
Epidemiology What do you feel are the most important points about the
epidemiology of the disease? Incidence? Portal of entry? Source? Is it a
normal microb.

In 2007 San Francisco began its Healthy San Francisco Plan designed to provide health care for all San Francisco citizens. In 2007, it was estimated that San Francisco had 82,000 uninsured citizens. Under the plan, all uninsured citizens residing in San Francisco can seek care at the city's public and private clinics and hospitals. The basic coverage includes lab work, x-rays, surgery, and preventative care. The city plans to pay for this $203 million coverage by rerouting the $104 million the city currently spends treating the uninsured in the emergency rooms, mandating business contributions, and requiring income-adjusted enrollment fees. The plan requires all businesses with more than 20 employees to contribute a percentage toward the plan. Many business owners consider this a burden and warn they will not stay in the city. The Mayor sees universal health access a moral obligation for the city.
Take one of the following positions.
San Francisco has an obligation to provide its citizens with health access.-OR-
San Francisco does not have an obligation to provide its citizens with health access.
Discuss the following in your assignment
:
What is the government's role in regulating healthy and unhealthy behavior?
Has the balance between personal freedom and the government's responsibility to provide health and welfare of its citizens been eroded? Why or why not?

MINI CASE
Delivering Business Value with IT at Hefty Hardware2
"IT is a pain in the neck," groused cheryl O'Shea, VP of retail marketing, as she
slipped into a seat at the table in the Hefty Hardware executive dining room, next to her colleagues. “It’s all technical mumbo-jumbo when they talk to you and I still don’t know if they have any idea about what we’re trying to accomplish with our Savvy Store program. I keep explaining that we have to improve the customer experience and that we need IT’s help to do this, but they keep talking about infrastructure and bandwidth and technical architecture, which is all their internal stuff and doesn’t relate to what we’re trying to do at all! They have so many processes and reviews that I’m not sure we’ll ever get this project off the ground unless we go outside the company.”"You have got that right", agreed Glen vogel, the COO. " I really like my IT account manager, Jenny Henderson. She sits in on all our strategy meetings and seems to really understand our business, but that’s about as far as it goes. By the time we get a project going, my staff are all complaining that the IT people don’t even know some of our basic business functions, like how our warehouses operate. It takes so long to deliver any sort of technology to the field, and when it doesn’t work the way we want it to, they just shrug and tell us to add it to the list for the next release! Are we really getting value for all of the millions that we pour into IT?”

Case Study Project Part 2: Economic Development Analysis and Proposal Instructions
You will submit an Economic Development Analysis and Proposal Plan, consisting of 15-20 pages, not including the title page, abstract, or reference page. In order to complete this assignment, you must choose a specific locale that you want to use for your case study. You may wish to select the community in which you currently live or a hometown as the focus of this report. A case must be a “bounded system” with definable parameters (Stake, 1995). Thus, you must choose a locale that you can define and limit. For example, you should not use New York City. Its size is far beyond what you will be able to accomplish in this course. Likewise, you would not want to choose Huston, Idaho, as it is far too small to have a need for a cohesive economic development plan. In this assignment, you will target the specific situations found in an American city, town, or county. This assignment will require that you address the following six specific areas:
Locale
When choosing your locale, make sure that you will be able to find demographic and economic information. You will want to choose an area with which you are familiar or an area where there is obvious need. Attempt to pick a city or a town that is not extremely large (i.e., New York City, however, Staten Island could be a viable project). Choosing wisely will make your research more focused so that you can complete the research by the time the course has finished.
Economic Situation
You must detail the specific economic situation facing this location. For example, if you were to choose Flint, MI, you would have to discuss the impact of the auto industry moving away from the city and the subsequent economic and social conditions of the city. How has the economic shift impacted the city and how has the city responded in the last 30 years? Additionally, what initiatives.

Mary Post:
#2: To obtain the necessary transportation capabilities in a short timeframe, what type of software purchase option should myIoT pursue? Explain.
The software purchase option that myIoT, Inc. should pursue would be a SaaS application. This is an Internet based service where the software is accessed online and there is no need to have it installed on site. This is a less expensive option than purchasing software and licenses, and it allows access to the outside vendors. It is also cheaper than hosted software. Based on the cloud location, the setup time is faster, which is what myIoT needs for a two-month turnaround.
#3: What types of technology implementation challenges might myIoT face? How can these risks be minimized?
Application integration would pose a challenge. Since there is a short time-frame, ensuring all partners are “up and running” could be their biggest issue. There will need to be a training period for all that access the data. Should any of their vendors not have the same capabilities, this could throw off their entire operation. Also, due to the variety of systems organizing and sharing information might be a problem. MyIot would need to work with its supply chain partners and vendors to ensure they are all capable using the chosen TMS and begin to implement it right away. This will allow extra time to make changes and enforce training sessions.
Desmond Post
2. To obtain the necessary transportation capabilities in a short timeframe, what type of software purchase option should myIoT pursue? Explain.
My Iot should pursue a well designed TMS software system. This system specializes in planning the flow of materials across the supply chain. It's the core of routing, rating, and, executing shipments across multiple modes tracking, load tracing, and freight settlement. The capabilities and scope of TMS expands the software to a much more integrative system. It provides support for transportation strategic, tactical, and operational planning, as well as delivery execution, in transit visibility and performance evaluation. TMS also supports appointment scheduling, metrics monitoring, and freight bill auditing.
3. Whats types of technology implemenation challenges might my iot face? How can these risks be minized?
My Iot could potentially loose time in wages, delay of shipment, and possibly loose business with customers, but these risks could be minimized by implementing better planning, develop training within your team, create effective structure and monitor the technology program by following these simple steps below to correct system and human error as they occur:

Case Study: Planning for Growth
Kelly’s Sandwich Stop
is one of the best-known and most loved sandwich concessions in town. In business for about five years, she sells sandwiches and other lunch items made from locally produced food from her mobile food trailer. Kelly’s passion and talent for creating reliably fresh, tasty lunch fare popular among a business clientele (largely employees and shoppers) has made her small enterprise a booming success.
In the last year, Kelly added a bicycle-towed concession that travels to different strategic locations in town, selling her popular sandwiches to customers who work beyond walking distance of
Kelly’s Sandwich
Stop
. She now has a total of four employees, all part-time, working both concessions. Because she caters to urban customers, her concessions operate on week days from 10 am to 2 pm. To promote word-of-mouth advertising, Kelly uses Facebook to publish her daily menus and the locations of the bicycle concession.
As a sole proprietor, Kelly has been pleased with her lunch business success. Now it’s time to get serious about the future of her business. In the short and medium term, she wants to see it grow into a potentially more lucrative enterprise, implementing a greater variety of food products and services, and increasing her competitive edge in the region. Ever the ardent entrepreneur, Kelly’s long-term dream is to develop her creative, health-conscious culinary skills and services into a wider clientele outside the region.
An opportunity has arisen to lease restaurant space about 10 miles away from her trailer concession location, close to a mall and the suburbs and nearer to her local food producers. Kelly has jumped at the chance. While she has hired professional business consultants to help her set up the space, design the menu, and implement the opening of the restaurant, she must also consider the short- and long-term financial, HR, and management needs of such an expansion. Kelly is particularly sensitive to her relationship to her customers, employees, and the community.

Case Study One:
BMGT 464 Portfolio Activity Two
Purpose:
In this case the committee is looking to see how you can apply communication skills to obtain the maximum job performance of the employee in each of the short scenarios. After reading each short case, prepare answers to the questions for the upcoming search committee interview to review.
Outcomes:
The students will demonstrate understanding of the following outcomes:
· How to manage, organize, and lead employees;
· To identify the organizational theory related to increasing job performance to raise company effectiveness;
· How to communicate effectively to affect change or motivation; and
· Writing for persuasiveness.
Scenarios and Questions:
After reading each short case, prepare answers to the questions for the upcoming search committee interview to review.
1) “RLI Home Builds a Castle on Communication”
Since the outset the owner Ralph Lorean has prided himself on focusing the culture of the company on excellent customer service. Managers know that a culture like this would only work if the company’s employees enjoyed their work and the company. He wanted to build a company where every employee felt they owned the castle. Ralph believed that communication was essential to making an employee feel a part of the group, so he often said that he never wanted employees to “read about their company in the media and learn something new.”
Because RLI is international in scope it is possible that on any given day or time two thirds of its 2,000 employees are outside an office. To conquer the communication this problem imposes Ralph is surveying his managers to see if they think a new, but very expensive, “dashboard” intranet system would be worth the expenditure. The system would ensure optimal communication strategies allowing every employee remote access from wherever they are. Regardless, of location every employee can share information on the dashboard from their cell phone. However, it does not offer a “SKYPE” feature. Management has sent a short questionnaire to you asking the following questions:
A) How would the new tool influence job performance positively in RLI?
B) Could dependence on a program which does not permit access to verbal or face to face communications hinder job performance in a global setting? If so why?
C) If the dashboard was only presented in English would this be a factor in its intracompany success?
D) One of the biggest reasons suggested for purchasing the system is that it allows information to flow both from top down to bottom up. Do you see this as possible if the company is not structured in a similar way? If so why, if not why not?
2) Email Over All! Richard Burton is one of the production supervisors at Lighting R Us a branch of RLI. Richard supervises 25 employees and has been performing well in this same job for 5 years. Burton wants a promotion in the foreseeable future but feels it unlikely. Burton is always “on”. He has 24/7 email access, texts al.

1Running head DOMESTIC VIOLENCE4DOMESTIC VIOLEN.docx
- 1. 1 Running head: DOMESTIC VIOLENCE 4 DOMESTIC VIOLENCE Domestic Violence Julie Cavanaugh Unit 6 Assignment CJ-333 Purdue Global University Domestic Violence Characteristics of abusers Abusers are quick involvers An abuser is charming at the initial stages showering the other partner with attention, adoration, and praise (Dutton, 2007). The courtship seems more intense and sweet. However, the person pushes and calls for an exclusive engagement or association. Abusers tend to be attached in a relationship quickly such that the other partner has very little knowledge on their family or their past. At this stage, the person might even give suicidal threats if the other partner slows down towards the courtship. Abusers isolate their partners
- 2. Abusers try to take up much time of the other partner as the relationship progresses. The person convinces the other partner that they don’t need to be with other people such as friends since he or she loves the other partner so much. Abusers then wear away the support network of the other partner. For example, the person may initiate conflicts with friends and family of the partner in order to discourage her or him from being with them. Moreover, an abuser tries to control the other partner’s access to transportation and communication (phones) in order to keep them in the check. Abusers observe every movement of their partners even by other parties instructing them to watch over the partner for them. Abusers are very jealous and manipulative Abusers see other people as threats to their relationships such that they may accuse their partners of flirting with other people (Van Hasselt, Morrison, Bellack, & Hersen, 1988). Abusers tend to be very intelligent because they know how to detect weak spots. Abusers use past pain and vulnerability of partners to their advantage. Critical and inconsistent Although the other partner tries very hard, she cannot satisfy an abusive partner. Abusers tend to assault partners verbally and think nothing of degrading. Abusers are inconsistent regarding moods. Their moods swing from one minute to the other. For example, the person might be sweet and happy in one moment, only to pound his fist in the other moment. Four characteristics of abusers in domestic violence situations Intimidating and threats Abusers in domestic violence situations intimidate and threaten their partners. Such abusers threaten the other party causing
- 3. them excessive fear. The partner may destroy property as a way of threatening the other party. Moreover, the partner may even hurt or kill pets as a way to intimidate partners. Such threats and intimidation make the other partner not to take action in fear of being hurt or being killed. Intent and choice Abusers are very sensitive as they use violence. Abusers in domestic violence are rarely indiscriminately violent. These choices are revealed in social networks, communities, or workplaces where they are not violent (Dutton, 2007). However, abusers choose how, where and when to inflict violence. For example, if a friend knocks the door, the person changes from a violent person to a very pleasant in the middle of an abusive incident. Use of control and physical discipline Abusers in domestic violence tend to use excessive control and physical discipline. The abuser often forces their partners (especially women) to quit their jobs in order to look after children and the house. The abuser might physically discipline their wives and children to punish a mere mistake. Abusers have a poor understanding of suitable behaviors in children at various stages and ages. Externalizing the cause of their behavior Abusers in domestic violence situations tend to give external reasons for their violent behavior. For instance, abusers may blame their violent actions on the behavior of the other partner. They may also blame stress, bad moods, or alcohol on their behavior. Roles of substance abuse and its effect on domestic violence
- 4. Alcohol and substance abuse is a primary cause of severity and presence of abuse in a domestic violence (Van Hasselt et al., 1988). An alcoholic is always violent and causes harm to the other partner. Abusers also tend to abuse substances when they want to be violent toward their partners or victims. After their violent behavior, they blame on alcohol. Substance abuse creates conflicts because addicts may even sell properties in order to afford the drugs; this leads to conflicts. Substance abuse deteriorates existing domestic violence. For example, alcoholic men show higher rates of violence toward their spouses. Alcoholic men assault their spouses more frequently leading to serious injuries. Credibility of resources I made sure the authors and sources are credible since they deeply covered the depth of the topic; domestic violence. The information given was not biased in any way. The information is updated as the two sources have been edited recently. The authors are also rich in information on domestic violence having studied psychology. References Dutton, D. G. (2007).

- 5. BB8. Firstly they are using traditional costing system for analysing the profitability of two products whereby LABOR HOUR RATE has been used as a method of absorbing production overheads. Following analysis has been made Model Total R2D2 BB8 Sales $11,125,000 90,00,000 21,25,000 Cost of Goods Sold 69,00,000 54,90,000 14,10,000 Gross Margin 42,25,000 35,10,000 7,15,000 Less: Selling and Administrative Expenses 36,75,000 34,50,000 2,25,000 Operating Income $550,000 60,000 4,90,000 Number of Units Produced and Sold 30,000 5,000 LABOR HOURS per unit

- 8. 300 425 As per traditional costing system, both products are looking profitable as selling price in both cases exceed the cost per unit.

- 12. Add SELLING per unit 115 45 TOTAL COST PER UNIT 266.8 514.2 SELLING PRICE PER UNIT 300 425 From above ABC analysis it is very clear that BB8 is a loss making item. Its basic product cost (Even excluding selling costs) exceeds the selling price and after putting selling cost there is huge loss per unit.
- 13. RECOMMENDATIONS There should not be any sense in increasing or expanding sales of a loss making item. BB8 sales should not be expanded. Decision making using traditional costing can be very dangerous as traditional costing subsidizes cost of one product at the cost the other product. ABC gives better decisions. “BB8 seems to sell itself” as they are selling it below cost. For consumers, it’s a win win situation but for seller it is not advisable. In order to improve overall profits of the company the company should either increase the selling price of BB8 or discontinue its production and sale as every incremental unit of BB8 creates extra loss for the company UTILITY OF ABC ABC helps in bringing cost relationship with its cost drivers and hence is very useful in decision making. It explains the undercosting and undercosting created under the traditional costing. Activity based costing does not charge any general overheads on single basis but for every activity there is a separate most reasonable factor affecting it (called cost driver). ABC provides best support for managerial strategic decision making. Background You are a Consultant for the professional service firm, BUSI 2083 LLP. Your firm specializes in providing a wide variety of internal business solutions for different clients. It is your first day on the job and a Manager asks you for some help with a client in the aerospace sector. Eager to please on your first day, you head over to Galaxy Incorporated and sit down with the Executive Vice President to obtain more information.
- 14. “That R2D2 model is such a stinker! I think it's time to cut back its production and shift our resources toward the new BB8 model,” said Justin Medakiewicz, Executive VP of Galaxy Incorporated. “Take a look at this Income Statement I've received from accounting. The BB8 is generating over eight times as much profit as the R2D2 on one-sixth of the unit sales. I'm convinced that we should focus on the BB8 going forward.” The year-end statement which Justin was referring to is shown below. Model Total R2D2 BB8 Sales $11,125,000 $9,000,000 $2,125,000 Cost of Goods Sold 6,900,000 5,490,000 1,410,000 Gross Margin 4,225,000 3,510,000 715,000 Less: Selling and Administrative Expenses 3,675,000 3,450,000 225,000 Operating Income $550,000 $60,000
- 15. $490,000 Number of Units Produced and Sold 30,000 5,000 “The numbers sure look that way,” replied Melissa Montoro, the company's sales manager. “But why isn't the competition interested in replicating the BB8? I know we've been producing the model for only three years, but I'm surprised that more of our competitors haven't recognized what a cash cow it is.” “I think it's our new automated plant,” replied Justin. “Now it takes only two direct labour hours to produce a unit of the R2D2 and three direct labour hours to produce a unit of the BB8. That's considerably less than it used to take us.” “I agree that automation is very beneficial,” replied Melissa. “I suppose that's how we're able to hold down the price of the BB8. Trekkie Corporation in the UK tried to bring out a BB8 but discovered they couldn't come close to matching our price. But Trekkie is killing us on the R2D2 by undercutting our price with some of our best customers. I suppose they'll pick up all of our R2D2 business if we move out of that market. But who cares? We don't even have to advertise the BB8; it just seems to sell itself.” “My only concern about automation is how our manufacturing overhead rate has shot up,” said Justin. “Our total manufacturing overhead cost is $2,700,000. That comes out to be a hefty amount per direct labour hour, but Timothy down in accounting has been using direct labour hours as the base for computing overhead rates for years and doesn't want to change. I don't suppose it matters as long as costs get assigned to products.” “I've never understood that debit and credit stuff,” replied Melissa. “But I think you've got a problem in production. I had lunch with Lily yesterday and she complained about how complex the BB8 is to produce. Apparently they have to do a lot of setups, special soldering, and other work on the BB8 just to
- 16. keep production moving. And they have to inspect every single unit.” “It'll have to wait,” said Justin. “I'm writing a proposal to the board of directors to phase out the R2D2. We've got to increase our bottom line or we'll all be looking for jobs.” Compute the predetermined overhead rate based on direct labour hours that the company used during the year. (There was no underapplied or overapplied overhead for the year.) Direct materials and direct labour costs per unit for the two products are as follows: R2D2 BB8 Direct Materials $75 $120 Direct Labor $36 $54 Using these data and the rate computed in (1) above, determine the unit product cost of each product under the company's traditional costing system. Assume that the company's $2,700,000 in manufacturing overhead cost can be assigned to six activity cost pools as follows: Expected Activity Activity Cost Pool Estimated Overhead Costs Total R2D2 BB8 Machine setups (number of setups)
- 17. $ 312,000 $ 1,600 1,000 600 Quality control (number of inspections) 540,000 9,000 4,000 5,000 Purchase orders (number of orders) 135,000 1,200 840 360 Soldering (number of solder joints) 675,000 200,000 60,000 140,000 Shipments (number of shipments) 198,000 600 400 200 Machine-related (machine-hours) 840,000 70,000 30,000 40,000 $2,700,000 Given these data, would you support a recommendation to
- 18. expand sales of the BB8? Explain your position. From the data you prepared in (3) above, why do you suppose the BB8 “just seems to sell itself”? If you were president of Galaxy Incorporated, what strategy would you follow from this point forward to improve the company's overall profits? How might Galaxy Incorporated find the ABC information helpful in managing its business?
