BUS 307 Final Project Guidelines and Rubric
Overview
Business law plays an integral part in both our personal and professional lives. A solid grasp of essential business law concepts is critical for the successful
navigation of complex and diverse business environments. You will assess relevant legal issues as well as apply the discipline-specific knowledge necessary to
successfully address real-world business situations such as business formation and management, liability issues, and compliance with government and industry
regulations, as well as to effectively communicate issues and facts to peers and professionals.
The final project represents an authentic competency, as you will have the opportunity to present your analysis of the legal and ethical issues involved in three
hypothetical business scenarios as well as to evaluate and make recommendations to avoid such issues in the future.
This assessment addresses the following course outcomes:
• Apply the law regarding business relationships, such as agency law, partnership, and corporate law as strategies for appropriate and effective business
management
• Analyze issues of real and personal property as they pertain to business formation and management
• Determine the legal rights and duties of the parties to commercial paper for their impact on fundamental business operations
• Analyze the rights and duties of the parties in credit transactions, including secured transactions and bankruptcy law, as they apply to fundamental
business operations
• Evaluate the impact of government regulation on business practices for strategic and compliance purposes
Prompt
The final project for this course consists of two milestones and the final project submission. Milestones One and Two take the form of short answers crafted in
memo format from the perspective of a corporate attorney making recommendations to a client. For Case Studies 1 and 2, craft a professional memo for each,
appropriate in format, tone, and content, to send to your clients Fred and Sally, with your preliminary thoughts on the issues within. Your memos should illustrate
the issues and relevant law, apply the facts, and support your conclusions with regard to each issue. Always remember to be clear, kind, and professional in your
communications. The third element, Case Study 3, will be a short, 2–3-page essay in APA format that will require you to independently issue-spot as well as
provide a factual analysis of relevant law and recommendations. You will receive feedback on both milestones and the initial element of Case Study 3. Make any
necessary revisions and then include them all in the final submission, where you will label them as Case Study 1, 2, and 3.

Case Study 2
Fred’s Miracle Cough Syrup has hit the market and become a huge success with the burgeoning integrative medicine demographic. Per your advice, Fred has
patented his famous concoction and trademarked the Fred’s Miracle Cough Syrup name and logo. Demand is so high that Fred and Sally are working full-time on
the business. Their children, Sam and Lilly, and their respective spouses, Jane and Tim, have joined the company full-time as well. In fact, Fred and Sally have
made Sam and Lilly part owners of the business. Fred, Sam, and Tim handle the production, sales, and delivery. Sally and Lilly handle the majority of the
administrative and business management tasks, while Jane acts as the bookkeeper. Sally and Fred are the only authorized signatories on the corporate account.
Sally and Lilly have been hard at work securing a new production facility and distribution chain to accommodate an upcoming contract with a national chain.
After locating a large warehouse on several acres, Sally and Lilly approach their local credit union for a loan. The business has only one business credit card used
to purchase supplies for the production of Fred’s Miracle Cough Syrup, and there is a small mortgage outstanding on the family farm. Personal debts of the
individual family members consist of small credit-card balances for Fred, Sally, Sam, and Lilly as well as an auto loan on Sam’s van.
During the commercial loan accounting review process, Sally and Lilly discover that Jane has been siphoning off large amounts of corporate money and “cooking
the books” to hide her actions. Jane has written several checks from the corporate account and forged both Sally’s and Fred’s signatures. Jane has made out all
but one of the forged checks to Don, a local loan shark, in an effort to repay her gambling debts. The check Jane did not deliver to Don was made out to “Cash,”
which she slipped into the collection box at church in an effort to absolve her guilt. The embezzlement was so severe that the family fears that Fred’s Miracle
Cough Syrup is now on the brink of bankruptcy. Meanwhile, Sam’s refusal to enter into an exclusive distribution deal with the local drugstore has enraged Bob,
the owner. Bob has now reverse engineered Fred’s cough syrup recipe and has posted it online in an act of vengeance.
As Fred and Sally tearfully recount the events of the past month, you reassure them that you are on the case, and you begin to ponder the legal issues at hand.

Case Study 1
Fred is well known in his town for his homeopathic cough syrup. After years of encouragement, he has decided to take his miracle cough remedy to market as
“Fred’s Miracle Cough Syrup.” While his cough syrup is homeopathic, one of the key ingredients causes a severe reaction when taken in conjunction with aspirin.
Fred plans to make and bottle his cough syrup in an outbuilding on the family farm. His son, Sam, has been raving to the locals about his father’s cough syrup for
years, and the local drug store and grocer have contacted Fred to place orders as a result. Sam also intends to approach several national chains in an effort to
secure supply contracts for Fred’s cough syrup. Fred has asked Sam to assist him with deliveries, as Sam has a van. Fred would like Sam to be involved with the
business as an employee initially, with the option of making him a partial owner at a later time. Fred and his wife Sally have two children, Sam and Lilly. Both live
in cabins on the family farm with their spouses and children. Fred and Sally engage you as their attorney to assist with the formation of the new business,
including determining the appropriate business entity type, management issues, product liability issues, and estate planning for both the business and family
property. After your initial meeting, you identify and research the following issues.
Specifically, the following critical elements must be addressed:
I. Describe the main types of business entities and their defining characteristics.
II. Apply product liability law and determine what issues are present. How would you advise your client to mitigate those issues?
III. Apply the elements and characteristics of an agency relationship to Sam’s actions. Does Sam’s involvement prior to the business formation, as well as his
anticipated role once the business is formed, create an agency relationship? Why or why not?
IV. Identify potential real property issues based on the location of the business on the family farm. Justify each potential issue.
V. Does the manufacture of Fred’s Miracle Cough Syrup on the family farm necessitate a formal transfer of ownership or possessory rights? Defend your
response.

BUS 206 Final Project Guidelines and Rubric
Overview
Business law impacts our everyday lives, both personally and professionally. Businesses enter contracts, manufacture goods, sell services and products, and
engage in employment and labor practices—activities that must all adhere to certain laws and regulations. Recognizing and evaluating legal issues is a
fundamental skill that will help you navigate commercial relationships and avoid potential problems in the business world.
The final assessment for this course will require you to analyze three case studies and produce a short report for each. You will apply your legal knowledge and
your understanding of the types of business organizations. The project is divided into three milestones, which will be submitted at various points throughout the
course to scaffold learning and ensure quality final submissions. These milestones will be submitted in Modules Three, Five, and Six. The final project will be
submitted in Module Seven.
This assessment addresses the following course outcomes:
Apply appropriate elements of the U.S. legal system and the U.S. Constitution to business scenarios for impacting decisions in authentic situations
Apply concepts of ethics, morality, and civil and criminal law to business scenarios for informed corporate decision making
Analyze the basic elements of a contract and a quasi-contract for their application to commercial and real estate scenarios
Differentiate between the various types of business organizations for informing rights and responsibilities
Prompt
Imagine yourself as a paralegal working in a law office that has been tasked with reviewing three current cases. You will review the case studies and compose a
short report for each, applying your legal knowledge and understanding of the types of business organizations. In each of the three reports, you will focus on
areas of law covered in this course. Case Study One focuses on the legal system, criminal law, and ethics. Case Study Two concentrates on contracts and landlord-
tenant law. Case Study Three involves environmental law and business organizations.

Case Study 1
Fred is well known in his town for his homeopathic cough syrup. After years of encouragement, he has decided to take his miracle cough remedy to market as
“Fred’s Miracle Cough Syrup.” While his cough syrup is homeopathic, one of the key ingredients causes a severe reaction when taken in conjunction with aspirin.
Fred plans to make and bottle his cough syrup in an outbuilding on the family farm. His son, Sam, has been raving to the locals about his father’s cough syrup for
years, and the local drug store and grocer have contacted Fred to place orders as a result. Sam also intends to approach several national chains in an effort to
secure supply contracts for Fred’s cough syrup. Fred has asked Sam to assist him with deliveries, as Sam has a van. Fred would like Sam to be involved with the
business as an employee initially, with the option of making him a partial owner at a later time. Fred and his wife Sally have two children, Sam and Lilly. Both live
in cabins on the family farm with their spouses and children. Fred and Sally engage you as their attorney to assist with the formation of the new business,
including determining the appropriate business entity type, management issues, product liability issues, and estate planning for both the business and family
property. After your initial meeting, you identify and research the following issues.

Overview
Business law impacts our everyday lives, both personally and professionally. Businesses enter contracts, manufacture goods, sell services and products, and
engage in employment and labor practices—activities that must all adhere to certain laws and regulations. Recognizing and evaluating legal issues is a
fundamental skill that will help you navigate commercial relationships and avoid potential problems in the business world.
The final assessment for this course will require you to analyze three case studies and produce a short report for each. You will apply your legal knowledge and
your understanding of the types of business organizations. The project is divided into three milestones, which will be submitted at various points throughout the
course to scaffold learning and ensure quality final submissions. These milestones will be submitted in Modules Three, Five, and Six. The final project will be
submitted in Module Seven.
This assessment addresses the following course outcomes:
Apply appropriate elements of the U.S. legal system and the U.S. Constitution to business scenarios for impacting decisions in authentic situations
Apply concepts of ethics, morality, and civil and criminal law to business scenarios for informed corporate decision making

BUS 307 Case Study 2 – Professional Memo
To:
Fred and Sally
From: Jennifer Moore
Date: November 27,2022
Subject:
Fred’s Miracle Cough Syrup
This memo's objective is to make you aware of any potential legal problems resulting from Jane's theft. I will also give you information on civil claims you might have, the various sorts of commercial bankruptcy lawsuits, and other legal options that could be used to prevent the bankruptcy of Fred's Miracle Cough Syrup.
Legal Defences
For a court to render a verdict, the defendant must have the opportunity to defend oneself against the civil allegations. Common law mandates that the person accused of a crime must present a defence in order to determine whether or not they should be found guilty of the crime. If there is no tangible proof confirming their guilt, the defendants must provide evidence to support their innocence or refute the accusations. In these instances, Jane used a fake check to settle her debts to Don. If Don receives the check, he may charge Fred and Sally of fraud. Since their document is fraudulent, Fred and Sally cannot compensate Don. Given that there is no connection between them, a strong defence against the allegation is likely.
In this instance, Jane is responsible for maintaining company documents. She has no part in business leadership, management, sales, processing, or delivery. Therefore, it is not her function and responsibility to make payments. Due to her lack of integrity and responsibility, she has compromised the organization's ideals by falsifying the check and acting above her authority. A violation of duty is a criminal offense. Consequently, the defendants may assert that Jane behaved as an individual and not as a corporation (Ambos, 2018). The check was meant just for buying of Fred Miracle syrups, but Jane wanted to use it to settle a few of her personal debt. There is no binding official document between Don and Fred. In the absence of an agreement between two parties, there is no contract. Fred and Sally thus are not accountable to Don. Given there was no contract, neither Sally nor Fred received any services from Don. Therefore demonstrating that Fred and Sally are not responsible for Don's civil lawsuits.
Jane was responsible for the gambling obligation, not Fred's business, because she was the one who obtained the service from Don's company. Don should therefore submit the complaint to Jane and not Fred and Sally. Jane also exceeded his authority, thus neither Fred nor Sally are responsible for her acts. Consequently, she should bear the loss as a result of her conduct. Fred and Sally will be victorious in their case since they are in no way responsible to Don (Ambos 2018).

LEARNING OBJECTIVES
After reading this chapter, you will be able to answer the following questions:
1
What are the major forms of business organization, and what are the differences among them?
2
What are the specialized forms of business organization?
3
What is a franchise?
CASE OPENER
The Dunkin’ Donuts Franchise Agreement
Dunkin’s Donuts Corporation operates numerous restaurants worldwide, organizing many of them as franchises. Dunkin’ Donuts has the exclusive license to use and to license others to use its trademarks, service marks, and trade name. These marks and trade name have been used continuously since 1960 to identify Dunkin’s doughnut shops as well as the doughnuts, pastries, coffee, and other products associated with those shops. Dipak N. Bhayani operated two Dunkin’ Donuts franchises in Illinois for many years. Dunkin’ Donuts later notified Bhayani that his two franchises had been violating parts of the franchise license agreement. After repeated incidents and failure to cure the violations over a substantial period of time, Dunkin’ Donuts (the franchisor) demanded termination of both of Bhayani's franchises.
1.
Did Dunkin' Donuts lawfully revoke Bhayani's franchises?
2.
What are some potential problems that a franchisor and a franchisee might experience in their relationship?
The Wrap-Up at the end of the chapter will answer these questions.
p. 771
Suppose you come up with an idea to produce a novel product you think could lead to enormous profits. But what is the best way to produce this product? Should you do it yourself by creating your own business? Do you have enough money to create your own business? What are the legal ramifications if your business is not successful? What legal responsibilities do you have with respect to your business?
Perhaps you share your idea with your best friend, who suggests that the two of you become partners in the production and sale of this product. What are the benefits associated with forming a partnership? What are the disadvantages? Are there other forms of business you should consider?
Choosing the form of business to create is one of the most important decisions an enterprise makes. The extent of liability and control the owner will have depends on the form of the business. The business world is not static, however, and businesses can and do change form over time, so this chapter relates not only to new businesses but also to existing ones. The first section introduces the major types of business organizations, describing how these forms are both ...

Business Law
Joe entered into partnership with two others in the establishment of a real estate sales agency.
The other two, Sam and Harry, had considerable experience in the real estate business but no
money. Joe, on the other hand, had his own home and several significant assets, and although he
didn't have any experience in the real estate business, his monetary contribution made him an
equal partner with Sam and Harry. Unfortunately, Harry misused some trust funds that had come
into his care as a result of business, investing it in the business of one of his sons rather than an
interest-bearing account. The business of the son went sour and the money was lost. The client
sued Harry, Sam, and Joe.
a) Applying the relevant legal principles, identify and explain in details the type of
partnership involved. Discuss the liabilities of Harry, Sam, and Joe based on the relevant
legal principles. (5 marks)
Amanda and Florence decided to form a partnership for selling gourmet picnic baskets. To raise
sufficient capital, they convinced their mothers to invest $5000 each as limited partners.
Amanda's mother was an experienced restaurateur and watched the business with great interest.
On several occasions, she advised them on the business and contacted old business associates to
buy surplus stock. She even filled in taking orders in the office when needed. A customer who
was made ill by contaminated food from a tin can supplied in one basket sued.
b) Applying the relevant legal principles, identify and explain in details the nature of the
partnership as well as the liability, if any, of the mother(s) (5 marks)

Hi China:
Case Study Two: There are four elements of a contract that make it legally binding. Without all four of these elements the contract will not stand in a court of law. The first element is the offer. The offer has a clearly defined time limit and a clear offer. The next element to a contract is acceptance. The offer must be accepted without conditions. The third element of a contract is intention of legal consequences. The final element of a contract is consideration. This means the offer is accepted and something is done in return.
Some contracts must be in writing. Here Is a great link to a website that will help you reinforce the elements of a contract.

Case Study Two: Quasi-Contract:
A quasi contract can be difficult to understand. A quasi-contract might seem like a contract existed but it really didn't. Courts do not want individuals to benefit when they really don't deserve it. Because a quasi contract is not a true contract, mutual assent is not necessary, and a court may impose an obligation without regard to the intent of the parties. The remedy is usually restitution. Liability is determined on a case-by-case basis.

Also if Sam and his landlord had a previous agreement that his apartment would be used only as a residence and not as a business location then he would be in breach of his contract and could be evicted

1.
John Albert and Matthew Baker have been friends for many years. They have decided to go into business together in Phoenix, Arizona. Each of them has worked as a loan officer for a mortgage lending bank in the past. They believe a new lending company would be prosperous. They decide to open a company and call it the “Lending Store”. They have never owned a business before so need some help getting their business venture started. They know you have recently taken a course about business law and come to you for some business advice.
1. Albert and Baker are considering the merits of forming the company as a general partnership. Explain what their respective rights would be as to (a) any profits of the company and (b) participating in the management decisions of the company.
2. If Albert and Baker actually formed a general partnership, explain how this type of business entity would impact each partner on a personal basis with regard to any liabilities owed by the new company.
3. Another possible approach would be for Albert and Baker to form a corporation for their new business. Explain the steps these individuals would be required to take in order to get the corporation legally formed and ready to open the doors for business.
4. If Albert and Baker actually formed a corporation, explain what their personal obligation would be for any liabilities owed by the new company.
5. Albert and Baker are not aware of any other choices for the structure of their new business. Provide them with one more idea for a form of business (other than a general partnership or corporation). Explain some of the advantages and disadvantages of this third form of business entity.
2.
Albert and Baker form a corporation and start their business as the Lending Store, Inc. They begin making mortgage loans. They lease a large office building and eventually hire twenty employees. After several months it becomes obvious that one of their more experienced employees, Mary Smith, has some personal problems. Ms. Smith is 60 years old and has a permanent disability that requires her to work from a wheelchair. She is often late for work because of health issues and has some absences each month. She shows up ten minutes late for work one morning and Albert fires her on the spot without explanation. The company then promotes from within and allows John Jones to take Ms. Smith’s position. John Jones is 25 years old. He has no mortgage lending experience but is on time for work every day.
1. Mary Smith is unhappy about being fired. She is unable to find another comparable job so decides to sue the company to either get her job back or to recover past and future wages. Explain the possible legal claims that Ms. Smith could pursue against the company.
2. Albert and Baker come to you for advice again. Explain the best defenses the company would have against any legal claims made by Ms. Smith. Include in your explanation what you believe would be the most likely outcome of thi ...

Chapter 12: Duties as a Whistleblower
Whistleblower
A whistleblower is an employee or former employee who reports misconduct to people or entities that have the power and presumed willingness to take corrective action.
Whistleblowers can be internal or external.
Whistleblower Motivations
Whistleblower motivations include:
Revenge
Reputation Preservation
Altruism
Collecting financial rewards
Fasle Claims Act
Whistleblower (cont)
Whistleblower-
One of the most well known whistleblowers is Jeffrey Wigand, who exposed the Big Tobacco scandal, revealing that executives of the companies knew that cigarettes were addictive while approving the addition of known carcinogenic ingredients to the cigarettes.

Think Russell Crowe in the movie The Insider.
More recent whistleblowers include…..
Whistleblower (cont)
Cynthia Cooper (Worldcom), Coleen Rowley (FBI), and Sherron Watkins (Enron)
“their lives may not have been at stake, but Watkins, Rowley and Cooper put pretty much everything else on the line. Their jobs, their health, their privacy, their sanity--they risked all of them to bring us badly needed word of trouble inside crucial institutions”
Whistleblower Programs

Yes, usuallyYesProtection against workplace retaliation?No Yes
Whistleblower Laws
Section 806 of SOX
Only applies to publicly traded companies
File a complaint with the Department of Labor (DOL)
If DOL hasn’t ruled on it within 180 days, it goes to federal court or a civil suit may be filed
Remedies of employee include relief “to make the employee whole”, compensatory damages (same job back, back pay, special damages as result of action)
Whistleblower Laws (cont)
Do Whistleblower laws (specifically SOX section 806 provisions) work?
whistle-blowers still face a painful cost-benefit decision: whether a lawsuit with uncertain chances of success is worth the professional and personal sacrifices that will assuredly be required
Many employees have to change industries after filing suit, whether the case has merit or not
A study that looked at 470 cases filed between 2002-2005, the whistleblower won only 3.6% of the time.
Whistleblower Laws (cont)
What can/should employers do?
Have an independently-operated whistleblower complaint system. If the system is operated by personnel skilled in the underlying accounting, auditing, and internal control issues, proper information will be immediately collected, so that investigations are cost-effective and complete.

This document discusses several common legal mistakes made by startup founders that can jeopardize their company's success or render it "dead on arrival" (DOA).
It describes four scenarios where founders: 1) did not establish equity ownership agreements with co-founders; 2) developed intellectual property for an employer; 3) sold common stock at too low a valuation, leaving little value for common shareholders; and 4) set option prices too high, discouraging employees.
The author outlines three essential elements for startup success - people, technology, and money - which form a "Success Triangle." Legal issues can weaken any of these elements and cause failure if not properly addressed. The document aims to help founders avoid legal mistakes

1) This case study describes a family business that was passed down through generations but ultimately failed due to poor succession planning.
2) The business was originally owned by Harry, who gave ownership shares to his son Stan and grandchildren over time. However, the buy-sell agreement did not adequately plan for what would happen if Stan died.
3) When Stan unexpectedly passed away, his wife inherited his shares and gained control of the business along with her children. Harry then became a minority stakeholder in his own company.
4) Later disputes over valuation and the buyout of Harry's shares when he died led to expensive legal battles that destroyed family relationships and the financial well-being of the business.

Here are the key points I gathered from your perspective on genetically engineered children:
- Research into using genetic engineering to screen embryos and prevent passing on fatal illnesses is acceptable and could help reduce suffering. However, there should be limits to the application of this technology.
- Determining specific traits like intelligence, appearance, or athletic ability takes away human diversity and complexity. It also removes the child's ability to forge their own path and make their own decisions.
- Part of what makes life amazing is the unknown - not knowing exactly how a child will turn out compared to their parents. Genetic engineering could eliminate this natural variation and element of surprise.
- While the goal of reducing genetic diseases is understandable, pushing genetic engineering

Weeks 1–3
and is worth significantly more than previous assignments and more than the first part of the assignment.
Part I—Research Paper
This week, you will research laws or regulations related to the topic you selected. The information may require research of federal and/or state laws, as well as administrative agency laws. Compare the laws of two states, if applicable. For example, if you are writing about gender discrimination, compare the federal law with law from one of the states that also provides protection at the state level. State laws often provide more protection than the federal law. Summarize the information about the laws or regulations you found related to your topic.
Compile your response to Part I in a Microsoft Word document
Part II—Legal and Ethical Challenges in Business Organizations
Read the scenarios and the questions that follow. Identify the legal issue(s) and apply legal concepts and possible arguments for each question. After reading the scenarios, prepare a resolution for each question using laws, cases, examples, and/or other relevant materials. Consider using short headings (consult APA materials) to separate the topics. Summarize the facts; do not copy the scenarios into the paper. After you have answered the questions and before the conclusion, identify potential ethical issues and propose recommendations to help the organization avoid future occurrences of the legal and ethical issues discussed in the assignment. Support your answers with information from the textbook and at least five scholarly sources other than the text and course lectures.
Prepare an 8- to 12-page paper that identifies the legal issues and potential solutions and answers all questions presented, supported by relevant legal authority. Properly cite all sources using APA format. Do not exceed the page length by more than two pages, as the instructor is not required to read excess pages.

How to answer for Questions (you have to use HIRAC method)
So how do I answer a HIRAC problem question?
For each topic, you will be provided with a ‘guide to problem solving’. This
‘checklist’ will assist you to identify the relevant points which you will need to
consider when answering the problem questions.
When answering legal problem questions generally, it is recommended that you use
the HIRAC method. If you are not familiar with the HIRAC method, please read the
following explanation so that you can draw upon this method when answering legal
problem questions. HIRAC simply stands for Heading, Issue, Rule, Application and
Conclusion. That is:
H – Heading
Identify the major theme as your heading.
I – Issue
State the legal issue raised.
R – Rule
Your next sentence will be a statement of the legal rule(s) or
principle(s) that applies to the situation. State the principle clearly
and concisely in your own words, and indicate the case or
legislation that is your primary source of that principle.
A – Application
Your next sentence should be your application of the law – that is,
you apply the legal principle to the facts in the problem. This is
where you can draw heavily upon the case law. You could use the
following ways to apply the legal rule:
• The legislation could be interpreted to mean … which would
apply to these facts because …
• B would need to argue that …
• What B would need to show is … B can show this because
…[refer to relevant facts].
• There is not sufficient information, but B would only successful
if she could demonstrate that … then …
• In the facts given, B has …. This is similar to the facts in A v B
where the court concluded that ….
• Unless A could demonstrate that … then …
• A would not succeed unless …
• A would only succeed if …
C – Conclusion
This last part is where you state your conclusion. That is, what is
the result when you’ve applied the legal principle to the facts you’re
given? For example, is there a bailment or not, has A breached the
relevant legislation, does B have a legal remedy? When doing this, have regard to which (if any) party you have been
asked to advise.
You could use the following ways to state your conclusion:
• It could be argued that…
• It is arguable …
• I would advise B to argue that …
• It would be possible to conclude that …
• It is unlikely that …
Finally – revise your answer
Once you have finished writing your answer, ask yourself the
following questions.

3. Sally, 16 years old and unmarried, went to Hospital of the Good Shepherd with her
mother. Unknown to her mother, Sally was pregnant and in labor. She was in extreme
pain when she was admitted to the hospital and was told to just sign the medical
treatment authorization form so she could be treated. Sally delivered a healthy baby,
and both Sally and the baby were released the next day in good health. The hospital
attempted to collect their bill from Sally’s insurance carrier but it only paid a portion of
the costs. The hospital then sued Sally for the balance. Is Sally liable for the balance of
the medical bill? Is Sally’s mother responsible?
4. In many other countries, contracts aren’t as strictly construed and don’t contain all of
the terms of an agreement as they do in the United States. Often, business people
from other countries complain that U.S. contracts are viewed too formally. Generally,
contract law in the U.S. requires all parties to a contract to continue to perform the
contract even when conditions have changed and make it more difficult for one party
to continue to perform. Do you believe contracts should be more flexible to allow for
changes in the terms of the agreement when conditions change? Or, do you believe the
terms of a contract should be viewed as an absolute irrespective of any change in
conditions? Explain your answer.

BUS 206 Final Project Guidelines and Rubric
Overview
Business law impacts our everyday lives, both personally and professionally. Businesses enter contracts, manufacture goods, s ell services and products, and
engage in employment and labor practices—activities that must all adhere to certain laws and regulations. Recognizing and evaluating legal issues is a
fundamental skill that will help you navigate commercial relationships and avoid potential problems in the business world.
The final assessment for this course will require you to analyze three case studies and produce a short report for each. You will apply your legal knowledge and
your understanding of the types of business organizations. The project is divided into three milestones, which will be submitted at various points throughout the
course to scaffold learning and ensure quality final submissions. These milestones will be submitted in Modules Three, Five, and Six. The final project will be
submitted in Module Seven.
This assessment addresses the following course outcomes:
Apply appropriate elements of the U.S. legal system and the U.S. Constitution to business scenarios for impacting decisions in authentic situat ions
Apply concepts of ethics, morality, and civil and criminal law to business scenarios for informed corporate decision making
Analyze the basic elements of a contract and a quasi -contract for their application to commercial and real estate scenarios
Differentiate between the various types of business organizations for informing rights and responsibilities
Prompt
Imagine yourself as a paralegal working in a law office that has been tasked with reviewing three current cases. You will review the case studi es and compose a
short report for each, applying your legal knowledge and understanding of the types of business organizations. In each of the three reports, you will focus on
areas of law covered in this course. Case Study One focuses on the legal system, criminal law, and ethics. Case Study Two concentrates on contracts and landlord-
tenant law. Case Study Three involves environmental law and business organizations.
Case Study One
Chris, Matt, and Ian, who live in California, have decided to start a business selling an aftershave lotion called Funny Face over the internet. They contract with

design the product and to plan marketing and distribution strategies. In fact, to increase the profit margin, Chris direct s Novelty Now to substitute PYR (a low-
cost chemical emulsifier) for the compound in Novelty Now’s original formula. PYR is not FDA approved. Funny Face is marketed nationally on the radio and in

BUS 307 Case Study 2 – Professional Memo
To:
Fred and Sally
From: Jennifer Moore
Date: November 27,2022
Subject:
Fred’s Miracle Cough Syrup
This memo's objective is to make you aware of any potential legal problems resulting from Jane's theft. I will also give you information on civil claims you might have, the various sorts of commercial bankruptcy lawsuits, and other legal options that could be used to prevent the bankruptcy of Fred's Miracle Cough Syrup.
Legal Defences
For a court to render a verdict, the defendant must have the opportunity to defend oneself against the civil allegations. Common law mandates that the person accused of a crime must present a defence in order to determine whether or not they should be found guilty of the crime. If there is no tangible proof confirming their guilt, the defendants must provide evidence to support their innocence or refute the accusations. In these instances, Jane used a fake check to settle her debts to Don. If Don receives the check, he may charge Fred and Sally of fraud. Since their document is fraudulent, Fred and Sally cannot compensate Don. Given that there is no connection between them, a strong defence against the allegation is likely.
In this instance, Jane is responsible for maintaining company documents. She has no part in business leadership, management, sales, processing, or delivery. Therefore, it is not her function and responsibility to make payments. Due to her lack of integrity and responsibility, she has compromised the organization's ideals by falsifying the check and acting above her authority. A violation of duty is a criminal offense. Consequently, the defendants may assert that Jane behaved as an individual and not as a corporation (Ambos, 2018). The check was meant just for buying of Fred Miracle syrups, but Jane wanted to use it to settle a few of her personal debt. There is no binding official document between Don and Fred. In the absence of an agreement between two parties, there is no contract. Fred and Sally thus are not accountable to Don. Given there was no contract, neither Sally nor Fred received any services from Don. Therefore demonstrating that Fred and Sally are not responsible for Don's civil lawsuits.
Jane was responsible for the gambling obligation, not Fred's business, because she was the one who obtained the service from Don's company. Don should therefore submit the complaint to Jane and not Fred and Sally. Jane also exceeded his authority, thus neither Fred nor Sally are responsible for her acts. Consequently, she should bear the loss as a result of her conduct. Fred and Sally will be victorious in their case since they are in no way responsible to Don (Ambos 2018).

LEARNING OBJECTIVES
After reading this chapter, you will be able to answer the following questions:
1
What are the major forms of business organization, and what are the differences among them?
2
What are the specialized forms of business organization?
3
What is a franchise?
CASE OPENER
The Dunkin’ Donuts Franchise Agreement
Dunkin’s Donuts Corporation operates numerous restaurants worldwide, organizing many of them as franchises. Dunkin’ Donuts has the exclusive license to use and to license others to use its trademarks, service marks, and trade name. These marks and trade name have been used continuously since 1960 to identify Dunkin’s doughnut shops as well as the doughnuts, pastries, coffee, and other products associated with those shops. Dipak N. Bhayani operated two Dunkin’ Donuts franchises in Illinois for many years. Dunkin’ Donuts later notified Bhayani that his two franchises had been violating parts of the franchise license agreement. After repeated incidents and failure to cure the violations over a substantial period of time, Dunkin’ Donuts (the franchisor) demanded termination of both of Bhayani's franchises.
1.
Did Dunkin' Donuts lawfully revoke Bhayani's franchises?
2.
What are some potential problems that a franchisor and a franchisee might experience in their relationship?
The Wrap-Up at the end of the chapter will answer these questions.
p. 771
Suppose you come up with an idea to produce a novel product you think could lead to enormous profits. But what is the best way to produce this product? Should you do it yourself by creating your own business? Do you have enough money to create your own business? What are the legal ramifications if your business is not successful? What legal responsibilities do you have with respect to your business?
Perhaps you share your idea with your best friend, who suggests that the two of you become partners in the production and sale of this product. What are the benefits associated with forming a partnership? What are the disadvantages? Are there other forms of business you should consider?
Choosing the form of business to create is one of the most important decisions an enterprise makes. The extent of liability and control the owner will have depends on the form of the business. The business world is not static, however, and businesses can and do change form over time, so this chapter relates not only to new businesses but also to existing ones. The first section introduces the major types of business organizations, describing how these forms are both ...

Business Law
Joe entered into partnership with two others in the establishment of a real estate sales agency.
The other two, Sam and Harry, had considerable experience in the real estate business but no
money. Joe, on the other hand, had his own home and several significant assets, and although he
didn't have any experience in the real estate business, his monetary contribution made him an
equal partner with Sam and Harry. Unfortunately, Harry misused some trust funds that had come
into his care as a result of business, investing it in the business of one of his sons rather than an
interest-bearing account. The business of the son went sour and the money was lost. The client
sued Harry, Sam, and Joe.
a) Applying the relevant legal principles, identify and explain in details the type of
partnership involved. Discuss the liabilities of Harry, Sam, and Joe based on the relevant
legal principles. (5 marks)
Amanda and Florence decided to form a partnership for selling gourmet picnic baskets. To raise
sufficient capital, they convinced their mothers to invest $5000 each as limited partners.
Amanda's mother was an experienced restaurateur and watched the business with great interest.
On several occasions, she advised them on the business and contacted old business associates to
buy surplus stock. She even filled in taking orders in the office when needed. A customer who
was made ill by contaminated food from a tin can supplied in one basket sued.
b) Applying the relevant legal principles, identify and explain in details the nature of the
partnership as well as the liability, if any, of the mother(s) (5 marks)

Hi China:
Case Study Two: There are four elements of a contract that make it legally binding. Without all four of these elements the contract will not stand in a court of law. The first element is the offer. The offer has a clearly defined time limit and a clear offer. The next element to a contract is acceptance. The offer must be accepted without conditions. The third element of a contract is intention of legal consequences. The final element of a contract is consideration. This means the offer is accepted and something is done in return.
Some contracts must be in writing. Here Is a great link to a website that will help you reinforce the elements of a contract.

Case Study Two: Quasi-Contract:
A quasi contract can be difficult to understand. A quasi-contract might seem like a contract existed but it really didn't. Courts do not want individuals to benefit when they really don't deserve it. Because a quasi contract is not a true contract, mutual assent is not necessary, and a court may impose an obligation without regard to the intent of the parties. The remedy is usually restitution. Liability is determined on a case-by-case basis.

1.John Albert and Matthew Baker have been friends for many years.docxjackiewalcutt
1.
John Albert and Matthew Baker have been friends for many years. They have decided to go into business together in Phoenix, Arizona. Each of them has worked as a loan officer for a mortgage lending bank in the past. They believe a new lending company would be prosperous. They decide to open a company and call it the “Lending Store”. They have never owned a business before so need some help getting their business venture started. They know you have recently taken a course about business law and come to you for some business advice.
1. Albert and Baker are considering the merits of forming the company as a general partnership. Explain what their respective rights would be as to (a) any profits of the company and (b) participating in the management decisions of the company.
2. If Albert and Baker actually formed a general partnership, explain how this type of business entity would impact each partner on a personal basis with regard to any liabilities owed by the new company.
3. Another possible approach would be for Albert and Baker to form a corporation for their new business. Explain the steps these individuals would be required to take in order to get the corporation legally formed and ready to open the doors for business.
4. If Albert and Baker actually formed a corporation, explain what their personal obligation would be for any liabilities owed by the new company.
5. Albert and Baker are not aware of any other choices for the structure of their new business. Provide them with one more idea for a form of business (other than a general partnership or corporation). Explain some of the advantages and disadvantages of this third form of business entity.
2.
Albert and Baker form a corporation and start their business as the Lending Store, Inc. They begin making mortgage loans. They lease a large office building and eventually hire twenty employees. After several months it becomes obvious that one of their more experienced employees, Mary Smith, has some personal problems. Ms. Smith is 60 years old and has a permanent disability that requires her to work from a wheelchair. She is often late for work because of health issues and has some absences each month. She shows up ten minutes late for work one morning and Albert fires her on the spot without explanation. The company then promotes from within and allows John Jones to take Ms. Smith’s position. John Jones is 25 years old. He has no mortgage lending experience but is on time for work every day.
1. Mary Smith is unhappy about being fired. She is unable to find another comparable job so decides to sue the company to either get her job back or to recover past and future wages. Explain the possible legal claims that Ms. Smith could pursue against the company.
2. Albert and Baker come to you for advice again. Explain the best defenses the company would have against any legal claims made by Ms. Smith. Include in your explanation what you believe would be the most likely outcome of thi ...

Chapter 12: Duties as a Whistleblower
Whistleblower
A whistleblower is an employee or former employee who reports misconduct to people or entities that have the power and presumed willingness to take corrective action.
Whistleblowers can be internal or external.
Whistleblower Motivations
Whistleblower motivations include:
Revenge
Reputation Preservation
Altruism
Collecting financial rewards
Fasle Claims Act
Whistleblower (cont)
Whistleblower-
One of the most well known whistleblowers is Jeffrey Wigand, who exposed the Big Tobacco scandal, revealing that executives of the companies knew that cigarettes were addictive while approving the addition of known carcinogenic ingredients to the cigarettes.
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0140352/trailers-screenplay-E11632-10-2
Think Russell Crowe in the movie The Insider.
More recent whistleblowers include…..
Whistleblower (cont)
Cynthia Cooper (Worldcom), Coleen Rowley (FBI), and Sherron Watkins (Enron)
“their lives may not have been at stake, but Watkins, Rowley and Cooper put pretty much everything else on the line. Their jobs, their health, their privacy, their sanity--they risked all of them to bring us badly needed word of trouble inside crucial institutions”
Whistleblower Programs

Yes, usuallyYesProtection against workplace retaliation?No Yes
Whistleblower Laws
Section 806 of SOX
Only applies to publicly traded companies
File a complaint with the Department of Labor (DOL)
If DOL hasn’t ruled on it within 180 days, it goes to federal court or a civil suit may be filed
Remedies of employee include relief “to make the employee whole”, compensatory damages (same job back, back pay, special damages as result of action)
Whistleblower Laws (cont)
Do Whistleblower laws (specifically SOX section 806 provisions) work?
whistle-blowers still face a painful cost-benefit decision: whether a lawsuit with uncertain chances of success is worth the professional and personal sacrifices that will assuredly be required
Many employees have to change industries after filing suit, whether the case has merit or not
A study that looked at 470 cases filed between 2002-2005, the whistleblower won only 3.6% of the time.
Whistleblower Laws (cont)
What can/should employers do?
Have an independently-operated whistleblower complaint system. If the system is operated by personnel skilled in the underlying accounting, auditing, and internal control issues, proper information will be immediately collected, so that investigations are cost-effective and complete.

This document discusses several common legal mistakes made by startup founders that can jeopardize their company's success or render it "dead on arrival" (DOA).
It describes four scenarios where founders: 1) did not establish equity ownership agreements with co-founders; 2) developed intellectual property for an employer; 3) sold common stock at too low a valuation, leaving little value for common shareholders; and 4) set option prices too high, discouraging employees.
The author outlines three essential elements for startup success - people, technology, and money - which form a "Success Triangle." Legal issues can weaken any of these elements and cause failure if not properly addressed. The document aims to help founders avoid legal mistakes

1) This case study describes a family business that was passed down through generations but ultimately failed due to poor succession planning.
2) The business was originally owned by Harry, who gave ownership shares to his son Stan and grandchildren over time. However, the buy-sell agreement did not adequately plan for what would happen if Stan died.
3) When Stan unexpectedly passed away, his wife inherited his shares and gained control of the business along with her children. Harry then became a minority stakeholder in his own company.
4) Later disputes over valuation and the buyout of Harry's shares when he died led to expensive legal battles that destroyed family relationships and the financial well-being of the business.

Here are the key points I gathered from your perspective on genetically engineered children:
- Research into using genetic engineering to screen embryos and prevent passing on fatal illnesses is acceptable and could help reduce suffering. However, there should be limits to the application of this technology.
- Determining specific traits like intelligence, appearance, or athletic ability takes away human diversity and complexity. It also removes the child's ability to forge their own path and make their own decisions.
- Part of what makes life amazing is the unknown - not knowing exactly how a child will turn out compared to their parents. Genetic engineering could eliminate this natural variation and element of surprise.
- While the goal of reducing genetic diseases is understandable, pushing genetic engineering

Part I—Research Paper
This week, you will research laws or regulations related to the topic you selected. The information may require research of federal and/or state laws, as well as administrative agency laws. Compare the laws of two states, if applicable. For example, if you are writing about gender discrimination, compare the federal law with law from one of the states that also provides protection at the state level. State laws often provide more protection than the federal law. Summarize the information about the laws or regulations you found related to your topic.

Part II—Legal and Ethical Challenges in Business Organizations
Read the scenarios and the questions that follow. Identify the legal issue(s) and apply legal concepts and possible arguments for each question. After reading the scenarios, prepare a resolution for each question using laws, cases, examples, and/or other relevant materials. Consider using short headings (consult APA materials) to separate the topics. Summarize the facts; do not copy the scenarios into the paper. After you have answered the questions and before the conclusion, identify potential ethical issues and propose recommendations to help the organization avoid future occurrences of the legal and ethical issues discussed in the assignment. Support your answers with information from the textbook and at least five scholarly sources other than the text and course lectures.
Prepare an 8- to 12-page paper that identifies the legal issues and potential solutions and answers all questions presented, supported by relevant legal authority. Properly cite all sources using APA format. Do not exceed the page length by more than two pages, as the instructor is not required to read excess pages.

How to answer for Questions (you have to use HIRAC method)
So how do I answer a HIRAC problem question?
For each topic, you will be provided with a ‘guide to problem solving’. This
‘checklist’ will assist you to identify the relevant points which you will need to
consider when answering the problem questions.
When answering legal problem questions generally, it is recommended that you use
the HIRAC method. If you are not familiar with the HIRAC method, please read the
following explanation so that you can draw upon this method when answering legal
problem questions. HIRAC simply stands for Heading, Issue, Rule, Application and
Conclusion. That is:
H – Heading
Identify the major theme as your heading.
I – Issue
State the legal issue raised.
R – Rule
Your next sentence will be a statement of the legal rule(s) or
principle(s) that applies to the situation. State the principle clearly
and concisely in your own words, and indicate the case or
legislation that is your primary source of that principle.
A – Application
Your next sentence should be your application of the law – that is,
you apply the legal principle to the facts in the problem. This is
where you can draw heavily upon the case law. You could use the
following ways to apply the legal rule:
• The legislation could be interpreted to mean … which would
apply to these facts because …
• B would need to argue that …
• What B would need to show is … B can show this because
…[refer to relevant facts].
• There is not sufficient information, but B would only successful
if she could demonstrate that … then …
• In the facts given, B has …. This is similar to the facts in A v B
where the court concluded that ….
• Unless A could demonstrate that … then …
• A would not succeed unless …
• A would only succeed if …
C – Conclusion
This last part is where you state your conclusion. That is, what is
the result when you’ve applied the legal principle to the facts you’re
given? For example, is there a bailment or not, has A breached the
relevant legislation, does B have a legal remedy? When doing this, have regard to which (if any) party you have been
asked to advise.
You could use the following ways to state your conclusion:
• It could be argued that…
• It is arguable …
• I would advise B to argue that …
• It would be possible to conclude that …
• It is unlikely that …
Finally – revise your answer
Once you have finished writing your answer, ask yourself the
following questions.
1. Did you p ...

1. Discuss the advantages and disadvantages of alternative
dispute resolution compared to litigation. If you were enter-
ing into a business contract which would you prefer to see
in the contract? Why?
2. Shoplifting is a very serious problem for retail store owners,
with millions of dollars of merchandise stolen each year.
Obviously, some shoplifters put clothing and other items
under their clothes and then attempt to leave the store.
Video cameras in every bathroom and dressing room would
undoubtedly reduce successful shoplifting. Using rights
principles of ethics, what ethical issues are raised by

Cumulative Essay Examination116
3. Sally, 16 years old and unmarried, went to Hospital of the Good Shepherd with her
mother. Unknown to her mother, Sally was pregnant and in labor. She was in extreme
pain when she was admitted to the hospital and was told to just sign the medical
treatment authorization form so she could be treated. Sally delivered a healthy baby,
and both Sally and the baby were released the next day in good health. The hospital
attempted to collect their bill from Sally’s insurance carrier but it only paid a portion of
the costs. The hospital then sued Sally for the balance. Is Sally liable for the balance of
the medical bill? Is Sally’s mother responsible?
4. In many other countries, contracts aren’t as strictly construed and don’t contain all of
the terms of an agreement as they do in the United States. Often, business people
from other countries complain that U.S. contracts are viewed too formally. Generally,
contract law in the U.S. requires all parties to a contract to continue to perform the
contract even when conditions have changed and make it more difficult for one party
to continue to perform. Do you believe contracts should be more flexible to allow for
changes in the terms of the agreement when conditions change? Or, do you believe the
terms of a contract should be viewed as an absolute irrespective of any change in
conditions? Explain your answer.
5. John is in the process of buying a new house. He looks on the Internet for some

BUS 307 Final Project Guidelines and Rubric Overview
1. BUS 307 Final Project Guidelines and Rubric
Overview
Business law plays an integral part in both our personal and
professional lives. A solid grasp of essential business law
concepts is critical for the successful
navigation of complex and diverse business environments. You
will assess relevant legal issues as well as apply the discipline -
specific knowledge necessary to
successfully address real-world business situations such as
business formation and management, liability issues, and
compliance with government and industry
regulations, as well as to effectively communicate issues and
facts to peers and professionals.
The final project represents an authentic competency, as you
will have the opportunity to present your analysis of the legal
and ethical issues involved in three
hypothetical business scenarios as well as to evaluate and make
recommendations to avoid such issues in the future.
This assessment addresses the following course outcomes:
• Apply the law regarding business relationships, such as
agency law, partnership, and corporate law as strategies for
appropriate and effective business
2. management
• Analyze issues of real and personal property as they pertain to
business formation and management
• Determine the legal rights and duties of the parties to
commercial paper for their impact on fundamental business
operations
• Analyze the rights and duties of the parties in credit
transactions, including secured transactions and bankruptcy law,
as they apply to fundamental
business operations
• Evaluate the impact of government regulation on business
practices for strategic and compliance purposes
Prompt
The final project for this course consists of two milestones and
the final project submission. Milestones One and Two take the
form of short answers crafted in
memo format from the perspective of a corporate attorney
making recommendations to a client. For Case Studies 1 and 2,
craft a professional memo for each,
appropriate in format, tone, and content, to send to your clients
Fred and Sally, with your preliminary thoughts on the issues
within. Your memos should illustrate
the issues and relevant law, apply the facts, and support your
conclusions with regard to each issue. Always remember to be
clear, kind, and professional in your
communications. The third element, Case Study 3, will be a
short, 2–3-page essay in APA format that will require you to
independently issue-spot as well as
provide a factual analysis of relevant law and recommendations.
You will receive feedback on both milestones and the initial
element of Case Study 3. Make any
necessary revisions and then include them all in the final
submission, where you will label them as Case Study 1, 2, and
3. 3.
Case Study 1
Fred is well known in his town for his homeopathic cough
syrup. After years of encouragement, he has decided to take his
miracle cough remedy to market as
“Fred’s Miracle Cough Syrup.” While his cough syrup is
homeopathic, one of the key ingredients causes a severe
reaction when taken in conjunction with aspirin.
Fred plans to make and bottle his cough syrup in an outbuilding
on the family farm. His son, Sam, has been raving to the locals
about his father’s cough syrup for
years, and the local drug store and grocer have contacted Fred
to place orders as a result. Sam also intends to approach several
national chains in an effort to
secure supply contracts for Fred’s cough syrup. Fred has asked
Sam to assist him with deliveries, as Sam has a van. Fred would
like Sam to be involved with the
business as an employee initially, with the option of making
him a partial owner at a later time. Fred and his wife Sally have
two children, Sam and Lilly. Both live
in cabins on the family farm with their spouses and children.
Fred and Sally engage you as their attorney to assist with the
formation of the new business,
including determining the appropriate business entity type,
management issues, product liability issues, and estate planning
for both the business and family
property. After your initial meeting, you identify and research
the following issues.
Specifically, the following critical elements must be addressed:
4. I. Describe the main types of business entities and their
defining characteristics.
II. Apply product liability law and determine what issues are
present. How would you advise your client to mitigate those
issues?
III. Apply the elements and characteristics of an agency
relationship to Sam’s actions. Does Sam’s involvement prior to
the business formation, as well as his
anticipated role once the business is formed, create an agency
relationship? Why or why not?
IV. Identify potential real property issues based on the location
of the business on the family farm. Justify each potential issue.
V. Does the manufacture of Fred's Miracle Cough Syrup on the
family farm necessitate a formal transfer of ownership or
possessory rights? Defend your response.
VI. Identify potential personal property issues based on the use
of Sam’s personal vehicle to deliver the product. Justify each
potential issue.
VII. Does the use of Sam's personal vehicle in the course of
business expose Sam or the business to any liability issues?
Defend your response.
VIII. Identify potential estate planning issues with regard to the
business and the family farm. Justify each potential issue.
IX. What estate planning vehicles are available to Fred and
Sally should they desire to transfer ownership in the business
and family farm, respectively, to Sam and
Lilly equally? What are the advantages and disadvantages to
each?
X. Applying your analysis of the issues above, which type of
business entity do you recommend for Fred’s Miracle Cough
Syrup and why?
5. Case Study 2
Fred’s Miracle Cough Syrup has hit the market and become a
huge success with the burgeoning integrative medicine
demographic. Per your advice, Fred has
patented his famous concoction and trademarked the Fred’s
Miracle Cough Syrup name and logo. Demand is so high that
Fred and Sally are working full-time on
the business. Their children, Sam and Lilly, and their respective
spouses, Jane and Tim, have joined the company full-time as
well. In fact, Fred and Sally have
made Sam and Lilly part owners of the business. Fred, Sam, and
Tim handle the production, sales, and delivery. Sally and Lilly
handle the majority of the
administrative and business management tasks, while Jane acts
as the bookkeeper. Sally and Fred are the only authorized
signatories on the corporate account.
Sally and Lilly have been hard at work securing a new
production facility and distribution chain to accommodate an
upcoming contract with a national chain.
After locating a large warehouse on several acres, Sally and
Lilly approach their local credit union for a loan. The business
has only one business credit card used
to purchase supplies for the production of Fred’s Miracle Cough
Syrup, and there is a small mortgage outstanding on the family
farm. Personal debts of the
individual family members consist of small credit-card balances
for Fred, Sally, Sam, and Lilly as well as an auto loan on Sam’s
van.
During the commercial loan accounting review process, Sally
and Lilly discover that Jane has been siphoning off large
amounts of corporate money and “cooking
6. the books” to hide her actions. Jane has written several checks
from the corporate account and forged both Sally’s and Fred’s
signatures. Jane has made out all
but one of the forged checks to Don, a local loan shark, in an
effort to repay her gambling debts. The check Jane did not
deliver to Don was made out to “Cash,”
which she slipped into the collection box at church in an effort
to absolve her guilt. The embezzlement was so severe that the
family fears that Fred’s Miracle
Cough Syrup is now on the brink of bankruptcy. Meanwhile,
Sam’s refusal to enter into an exclusive distribution deal with
the local drugstore has enraged Bob,
the owner. Bob has now reverse engineered Fred’s cough syrup
recipe and has posted it online in an act of vengeance.
As Fred and Sally tearfully recount the events of the past
month, you reassure them that you are on the case, and you
begin to ponder the legal issues at hand.
Specifically, the following critical elements must be addressed:
I. What legal defenses might Fred and Sally raise with regard to
the checks written by Jane to Don? Why do you believe they
will be successful or unsuccessful?
II. What legal defenses might Fred and Sally raise with regard
to the check written by Jane and delivered to the church? Why
do you believe they will be
successful or unsuccessful?
III. What, if any, civil claims do Fred and Sally have against
Jane based on her actions? Why do you believe they will be
successful or unsuccessful?
IV. Analyze the forms of bankruptcy available to the business in
this instance (assume the business entity is the same form as
7. you chose in Case Study 1).
What form is most appropriate and why?
V. Analyze the implications of a potential bankruptcy action on
the business assets (assume the business entity is the same form
as you chose in Case Study
1). Explain which, if any, are subject to forced sales, liens, or
forfeiture.
VI. Analyze the implications, if any, of a potential bankruptcy
action by the business on the assets of the individual family
members (assume the business entity is
the same form as you chose in Case Study 1). Explain if the
assets of business owners are subject to forced sale, liens, or
forfeiture.
VII. What legal recourse does Fred have against Bob for
infringement of intellectual property rights? Do you believe he
will be successful? Why or why not?
Case Study 3
Both Fred’s family and the business have rebounded from their
prior issues. Jane sought counseling for her gambling issues and
has worked hard to mend her
relationships with the family. Prior to cashing the forged checks
from Jane, Don was struck by lightning and experienced a
spiritual enlightenment. He willingly
returned the checks to Fred and Sally and promptly joined the
Peace Corps. Likewise, when the church found out the donated
check was a forgery, it was
immediately returned. Bob’s wife (also Sally’s best friend)
found out about Bob’s online sabotage and promptly remedied
the situation. Once Fred’s Miracle
Cough Syrup was back on track, the company’s growth was
exponential. Featured on a widely viewed talk show starring a
8. prominent doctor, online orders and
demands from big-box chains nationwide skyrocketed. Fred and
Sally have been told that now would be an ideal time to take
Fred’s Miracle Cough Syrup public.
The only distressing issue at hand involves Tammy, a local girl
who had been working as a delivery girl for the company. She
applied for Jane’s former job as
bookkeeper. Fred and Sally hired Ted, an experienced
accountant, instead, and Tammy has filed a claim of sex
discrimination against the company and Fred
personally. Fred and Sally are seeking your advice regarding
Tammy and the possibility of taking the company public.
Complete a legal analysis of the given facts, including the
following elements.
Specifically, the following critical elements must be addressed:
I. Evaluate three current or potential legal and/or regulatory
issues apparent in this fact pattern that might impact a public
offering.
II. Determine whether Fred's Miracle Cough Syrup is in
compliance with government regulations involving public
offerings by analyzing relevant laws and using
the appropriate legal test and facts given.
III. Support your conclusions and provide recommendations to
improve compliance and strategies for corporate growth.

Evaluating Results and Benefits – Week #3 Lecture 1
What do you think of when you think about an evaluation? Do
you immediately think about what you are doing right or wrong
28. and how you might improve? The evaluation process is essential
because it allows one to determine what is working and what is
not within the workplace while giving feedback for
improvement. Evaluation may focus on an individual, a team, or
department. Evaluation may also focus on a process. Regardless
of what is being evaluated, it is important to consider what is
going right, what may not be going right, and what can be done
to improve the situation overall.
First and foremost, it is important to decide who will be
conducting the evaluation. Some might immediately think that
management should conduct the evaluations, however, that is
not always the best route to take. Evaluations can be conducted
by internal staff, external third-parties, those involved in the
delivery of a service, by a peer, or even by the community. The
proper evaluator should be chosen based on the need for the
evaluation overall.
Once the evaluator has been decided upon, it is important to
determine the right time to conduct the evaluation. In the
instance of a project evaluation, it is important to all ow enough
time for the project to get underway before evaluating it. As
you know, any new project or process needs a little time to get
adjusted. However, it is important that you do not wait too long
where an investment could be lost due to poor management.
Taking the time to determine when an evaluation should occur
is an important role for management to consider. Remember,
when it comes to performance, timing is critical.
By definition, a needs assessment is a systematic process that
will determine and address the need for or the gaps present
between the current condition and the desired condition. The
discrepancy must be measured properly in order to determine
the need (Moseley & Dessigner, 2009). The needs assessment is
used in the planning process and can be used to improve many
aspects of the organization including individuals, teams, and
29. processes. The needs assessment is also a great tool to assist in
identifying issues that are preventing workplace success.
Organizations find the use of a needs assessment to be a
common assessment tool within the workplace as it has a solid
track record when it comes to organizational improvements. The
needs assessment is a tool that is easy and affordable for any
organization if conducted properly.
An impact evaluation is designed to provide feedback to help
improve the design of a program or policy within the workplace.
The impact evaluation looks at the well-being of those who are
directly affected by a project. This might be an individual, a
team, an investor, or even a community. Due to the difficult
nature of assessing these individuals, a group must be
developed that would mimic those at the receiving end of the
project or service. By doing this, the participants can be
monitored to determine their behaviors as a result of the product
or service. This evaluation method provides an estimated
observation of how well the product or service will work once
launched. In addition, feedback can be obtained prior to the
launch to ensure success overall (Moseley & Dessigner, 2009).
A full-scope evaluation offers human performance technology
professionals a choice of formative, summative, confirmative,
and meta evaluation methods. The full-scope evaluation method
is a diagnostic tool that assess the readiness of an organization
while preparing to implement a project or plan into the
workplace. The full-scope evaluation method is typically used
in the pre-planning methods to determine what the goals might
be and the challenges that could arise with the implementation
of the project or process. The results that occur from the pre-
planning evaluation will help to determine when further
feedback will be necessary and how often adjustments may need
to be made (Moseley & Dessigner, 2009).
The Kirkpatrick Taxonomy Model is also a beneficial tool used
30. in the evaluation process. There are four (4) levels to the
evaluation model. Level 1 measures reaction and the degree to
which participants react. Level 2 measures learning and the
degree to which participants acquire knowledge, skills, attitude,
and confidence. Level 3 measures behavior and the degree to
which a participant will apply what they have learned. Level 4
measures the degree to which the targeted outcomes occur as a
result of reinforcement (Moseley & Dessigner, 2009). This
method typically measures training and is important as it looks
directly at the employees and their ability to take from the
training to apply to the workplace. Understanding the ability of
your employees will provide you a deeper understanding of the
success of your organization.
The evaluation method that will be used will vary from
organization to organization, as well as project to project. As a
manager, understanding the various methods of evaluation will
provide you with the ability to stay ahead of the competition.
The understanding of these concepts will also help you to
develop a stronger bond among your employees to ensure
continued organizational success.

Week 3 Discussion
Top of Form
Our discussion for Week 3 revolves around evaluations. We are
asked to choose which evaluation method would be the most
useful in our current workplace. Next, we are asked to justify
the need for the changes that we feel could be made to the
process to ensure a proper fit within the organization.
Needs Assessment
In thinking back to one of my latest employers, which has been
several years ago, there was a huge disconnect between
expectations and training received to meet those expectations. I
worked as a server in a brand-new restaurant that had been built
within a brand-new state park in Missouri. The initial intention
of this restaurant was to be a “higher-end” dining experience
but not quite a “fine dining” experience. However, the lack of
experienced leadership in such a setting resulted in an epic
failure. Customer satisfaction ratings were low and most of the
staff were incompetent due to lack of training. This was a super
tough situation for me to be in and ultimately, I chose to
transfer to a different department because no changes were
being made.
I believe this situation could have benefited from a needs
assessment, which is a form of evaluation. Our eBook defines a
needs assessment as a diagnostic process that is designed to
pinpoint the learning and performance needs of an organization
and how to address those needs appropriately. Data collection is
key to a needs assessment and requires data from the current
situation (including behaviors, processes, systems, and culture)
33. plus the desired situation so the gaps between the two can be
analyzed (Moseley & Dessinger, 2010).
Justification for the Changes
My justification for the changes is that the culture was
extremely toxic which led to poor behaviors and low
satisfaction for both customers and employees. A needs
assessment would have allowed a data collection process that
would have detailed the current situation plus the desired
situation. A focus could have then been placed on the gaps
between the two so that corrections could be made within the
organization.

Week 3 Discussion Thread Post - The Right Fit
Top of Form
Happy Week 3 everyone!
I know I have over-achieved on this week's discussion post and
apologize in advance. My only excuse is that when I get into a
topic like this one and start writing on it, the material pours out.
This week's assignment topic turned out like that, and for me, it
was an enjoyable hour of writing as it pertained to an event that
just happened today.
My Current Workplace
I found employment with Molnlycke Health Care in the state of
Maine at two manufacturing locations that are integrated – site
A sends the product to site B for finishing and sending the
product to the central distribution center. Site A was a supplier
34. previous to being acquired into Molnlycke seven years ago, and
has quite a different culture – more of a ‘family’ feel - than Site
B which has more of a corporate feel. My job description and
reporting structure are corporate, aligned as a global enterprise,
and dotted line to the local director. There have been two
previous persons in my role over the past eight years, the most
recent came and left in about 18 months. I have been in this role
for 19 months. There are differing expectations from the
corporate leadership team versus the local leadership team, as to
be expected, and I have grown comfortable operating in such an
ambiguous working environment as an internal and external
consultant. I am able to gain trust at the local level and also be
loyal to the corporate mission.
Evaluation Method Recently Used
As the Operational Excellence Manager for all Molnlycke sites
in the United States – two manufacturing sites in Maine, a
distribution center in South Carolina, and various contract
manufacturers in the United States – I am the go-to person for
conducting evaluations that are primarily focused on operations
performance. The type of evaluation that fits into the framework
of a performance evaluation is a cross between Needs and
Impact (Moseley & Dessinger, 2010). Timing for conducting a
performance evaluation (combo needs & impact) is two-fold. I
performed an evaluation for one of the organization's five core
capabilities of Operational Excellence (OpEx) at the end of
2021 across the Maine sites that were not acted on by the
operations director. My impression is that this OpEx evaluation
was ‘nice to know' but was not taken serious because it was not
a top-down directive. Also, I perceived that the director (who is
a high “D” on the DiSC scale, meaning on the outer edge and
not very adaptable) is highly protective of his turf, even stating
“…we’ve known and practiced [that core capability] long
enough to know everything there is to know about it…” and he
took no action on the recommendations for closing the gaps
identified.
35. Evaluation Method Most Useful
The evaluation method discussed was communicated, in fact,
just this morning across all global sites in the presence of the
local director’s two site managers by the local director’s boss,
the Vice President of Operations, with the expectation to
conduct the evaluation (you guessed it) that I have already
performed ‘unofficially’ in late 2021. Interestingly, the local
director sent a message to my direct boss (he’s an Italian who is
the director of global OpEx) that he was offended by the
mention during the presentation this morning that it is vital for
local leadership to be supportive of conducting an authentic
evaluation and having resources directed to close the gaps in the
evaluation! My direct boss and I speak regularly and he already
knows quite a lot about the local director’s demeanor and his
areas of focus (only getting the numbers vs. humans as assets)
Justification for the Selected Evaluation Method
There’s a saying from one of my previous managers that “the
boss is the only real change agent” and as an HPT practitioner
with little or no resources of my own, so what happened today
can and often does make the difference between getting things
done or not. In the case of this particular OpEx core
competency, the local organization in Maine has had a blind
spot – really an organizational cognitive dissonance – of what
they believed the competency was and the reality of what the
competency is. To perform to the expected levels required to
close the gaps identified in the evaluation, the behaviors of the
director, the two site managers, and a host of other people will
have to change. In my experience, there are three vectors that
co-exist to enact change such as this one that is going to be
required: i) physical changes (new tools such as visuals,
indicators, trend charts…), ii) operational changes (using the
physical tools in a routine way, i.e., behavior change), and iii)
cultural change (which is the outcome of i & ii) – this is the
36. P.O.C. model. As an adjunct to the P.O.C. model is what I call
the ‘fake it ‘til you make it’ model where the HPT practitioner
put the physicals in place and has the skills and sensibilities
that ensure the target audience (the bosses) behave in
accordance with the physicals even though at first they will not
understand how they drive improved outcomes. With enough
practice and with enough faith in the HPT practitioner to follow
his/her coaching, the outcomes will happen in ways that can be
very positive. Case in point: after this morning’s video
conference with the boss’s boss, I shadowed one of the site
managers (the younger, newer, and more compliant one) to
behave with one of the most basic physical tools in his hand.
The dialogue that ensued with a very tenured and outspoke front
line operator was a positive but tense ‘banter’ and by the end of
the 30-minute dialogue (which will work down to 10 minutes
daily with practice), the site manager discovered that an
imminent problem would happen on Monday of next week. We
call that ‘looking around corners’ – just minutes before this
happened, the skeptical operator stated “you can’t predict the
future of everything that will go wrong. The site manager
walked back to his office and was beaming about the experience
and his avoidance of yet another problem that was waiting for
him early next week.
This thread is much longer than the discussion assignment asks,
but I also wanted to articulate for myself the experience that I
had that also fit into the scope of the assignment.
