Describe the advantages of using a balanced scorecard to measure and control organizational performance. Suppose you created a balanced scorecard for Wal Mart. What specific customer serive measures would you include? Solution Balanced scorecard (BSC) is strategic planning system. This system is used to align business activities to the vision of the organization. The advantages of using a balanced scorecard is to measure organizational performance is: (1) BSC helps in guiding managers how to best utilize resources for the purpose of employee training, self improvement of employees and enhancement of knowldge at the company level. This also improves the scope of innovation and the ability to innovate. (2) BSC helps the managers in guaging the effectiveness of the internal business process. If the company\'s products and services are not meeting customer requirements, how can this be achieved. This increases efficiency in the company. (3) BSC helps the managers in assessing whether the customers are being satisfied or not. This helps in increasing the satisfaction level. (4) Financial metrics in BSC will help the managers better manage risks, analyse the cost benefit perspective of a decision. All these will help in increasing financial efficiency. For walmart, the customer service metric or measures will be: (a) Wait time - This is the time that the customers have to spend at the billing counter. (b) Customer retention - This metric sees whether there are repeat customers or not and what is the proportion of repeat customers to total customers. (c) quality - this metric will see the quality of product being sold by Walmart.

determine c such that f(x)= C, for o for MSI Solution .pdf
Determine arithmetic mean of the numbers f(x1), f(x2) for f(x) = x/2-6 ; x1 = -8, x2 = 10
Solution
We\'ll determine the arithmatic mean of the numbers f(x1) and f(x2):
A.M. = [f(x1) + f(x2)]/2
To compute the value of A.M., we\'ll have to compute the values of f(x1) and f(x2).
For this reason, we\'ll substitute x1 and x2 in the expression of f(x).
For x1 = -8, we\'ll get:
f(-8) = -8/2 - 6
f(-8) = -4 - 6
f(-8) = -10
For x2 = 10, we\'ll get:
f(10) = 10/2 - 6
f(10) = 5 - 6
f(10) = -1
Now, we\'l substitute f(x1) and f(x2) by the values of f(-8) and f(10) in the expression of A.M.
A.M. = [f(-8) + f(10)]/2
A.M. = (-10-1)/2
A.M. = -11/2.

Designing a Flocculator: A water treatment plant is being designed to process 50,000 m3/d of
water. Jar testing and pilot-plant analysis indicate that an alum dosage of 40 mg/L with
flocculation at a Gt value of 4.0 x 104 produces optimal results at the expected water
temperatures of 15o C. Assume the average G value is 30 s-1.
Determine:
(1) The monthly alum requirement in kg/month
(2) The flocculation basin dimensions if three cross-flow horizontal paddles are to used. The
flocculator should be a maximum of 12 m wide and 5 m deep in order to connect appropriately
with the settling basin.
(3) The power requirement.
(4) The paddle configuration.
1. Monthly alum requirement:
40 mg/L x Q x time = _______________________ kg/month
2. Basin dimension:
(a) Calculate detention time
Then Gt = 4 x 104
t = 4 x 104 / G x (1 min/60 s) = __________________ min.
(b) Volume of tank is
V = Qt = 50,000 (m3/d) x t = _____________________ m3
(c) The tank will contain three cross-flow paddles so it length will be divided into three
compartments. For equal distribution of velocity gradients, the end area of each compartment
should be square, i.e., depth equals 1/3 length. Assuming maximum depth of 5 m, length is:
3 x d = _______________ m
Width is d x L x w = V
W = _________________ m
(d) Draw the configuration of the tanks with paddles:
3. Power requirements:
(a) Assume G value tapered as follows: (remember, the average of all three must be what you
assumed earlier)
First compartment, G = ________________ s-1
Second Compartment, G = ________________ s-1
Third compartment, G = ________________ s-1
(b) Power requirement for compartment 1, 2 and 3
P = G2 V m
Where Vcompartment = V/ 3 = _______________________ m3
At 15o C m = ___________________ Pa*s or N*s/m2
P1 = _____________ W = _______________ kW
P2 = _____________ W = _______________ kW
P3 = _____________ W = _______________ kW
4. Paddle configuration
(a) Assume each paddle has four boards 2.5 m long and w wide. There are three paddle wheels
per compartment.
(b) Calculate width of paddle (w) from power input and paddle velocity:
At 15o C, r = ___________________ kg/m3 (Table A-1)
assume paddle velocity in the middle of design range (above) = _______________ m/s
CD = __________________ (reference table above)
Ap = length of boards x (w) x number of boards
3 paddles at ________________ boards per paddle = ______________
boards
Ap = ____________ boards x 2.5 m (length) x (w)
P (in terms of (w)) = _________________________
Set equal to average power found above:
Solve for width of paddle:
w = ________________ m
Solution
1. Quantity of water to be processed for a month, Q= 50,000 m3/day x 30 days
= 1,500,000 m3
= 1,500 L
Monthly alum dosage required = 40 mg/L x 1500 L = 60,000 mg
= 60 kg
2. a) Gt = 4 x 104
G=30 s-1
Retention time required = Gt/G
= (4 x 104)/30
= 1333.33 seconds = 22.22 mints
b) Quantity of water to be processed, Q= 50,000 m3/day
= 34.72 m3/min
Volume of the tank should be, V = Q x retention time, t.

Describe in detail the advantages and disadvantages of renting versus owning a home. What is
the role of the title search in making a home purchase?
Solution
Renting versus owning a home.
There are a number of considerations you must make when making such decision. Renting
&buying both present a number of pros and cons & your own financial situation may be the
biggest factor of all.
Renting
Advantages.
1)no maintenance is required
If the garbage disposal breaks or you need a plumber ,getting maintenance is as easy as calling
the superintendent.
2)It is easier to move.
If you are not settled into your career or could have an opportunity to relocate in the near
future.It is much easier.
Disadvantages
1)your monthly payment can increase.
Rents have been rising in many cities.so,you may be facing an Increase in your monthly housing
payments as soon as your current lease ends
2)you don\'t build equity
When you rent your housing payment provides you with a place to live,but will not provide you
with an asset to sell when you are ready to move.
Buying Home.
Advantages
1)you can build equity
Historically house rise in value anywhere from 4% to 6% per year.Even if your house does not
increase in value.though you will be building equity as you pay down your mortgages as long as
your home maintain its value.
2)you can take advantage of tax breaks for home owners.
Home owners can deduct their mortgage interest payments and property taxes when they itemize
their federal income taxes .These deductions offset the cost of your housing
Disadvantages
1)you must pay property taxes
Property taxes can go up making your home less affordable
2)home could lose value.
As many people have learned the hard way ,there is no guarantee that your home will increase in
value over time..

Ratio 1.100 1.200 1.300 Part B Analyze Zach Industries’ financial condition as it is
related to (1) Liquidity: Zach Industries’ liquidity position has deteriorated from 2014 to
2015 and is inferior to the industry average. The firm may not be able to satisfy short-term
obligations as they come due. (2) Activity: Zach Industries’ ability to convert assets
into cash has deteriorated from 2014 to 2015. Examination into the cause of the 20.5-day
increase in the average collection period is warranted. Inventory turnover has also decreased for
the period under review and is fair compared to industry. The firm may be holding slightly
excessive inventory. (3) Debt: Zach Industries’ long-term debt position has improved since
2014 and is below average. Zach Industries’ ability to service interest payments has deteriorated
and is below industry. (4) Profitability: Although Zach Industries’ gross profit margin is
below its industry average, indicating high cost of goods sold, the firm has a superior net profit
margin in comparison to average. The firm has lower than average operating expenses. The
firm has a superior return on investment and return on equity in comparison to the industry and
shows an upward trend. (5) Market: Zach Industries’ increase in their market price
relative to their book value per share indicates that the firm’s performance has been interpreted
as more positive in 2006 than in 2005 and it is a little higher than the industry. Overall, the
firm maintains superior profitability at the risk of illiquidity. Investigation into the management
of accounts receivable and inventory is warranted..

c) proceduresum(n: positive integer)
sum := 0
while i < 10
sum := sum + i
d) procedurechoose(a, b: integers)
x := either a or b
Solution
a) Since n is a positive number, the while loop in this algorithm will run forever, therefore this
algorithm is not finite.
b) Since algorithm is not effective since the line “m := 1/n” cannot be executed when n=0,
which will eventually be the case. It can also be argued that this algorithm is not finite: if a line
in the algorithm cannot be completed, the algorithm as a whole cannot be completed. It can also
be argued that the algorithm lacks correctness since the “m := 1/n” line will also keep the
algorithm from arriving at a correct answer.
c) The value of j is never set in the algorithm, so the algorithm lacks definiteness. Without
knowing the initial value of j, the behavior of this algorithm is undetermined.
d) The only line in the algorithm is ambiguous, how does the algorithm decide which value (a or
b) to assign to x? Without knowing how this decision is made, the behavior of this algorithm is
undetermined; therefore, this algorithm lacks definiteness..

Describe what you think is the greatest challenge for the health care manager when it comes to
managing productivity. What methods would you use to overcome resistance from coworkers?
Solution
The greatest challenge for the health care manager when it comes to managing productivity
are absenteeism, presenteeism and employee turnover or replacement costs.
Absenteeism is generally defined as the number of days missed from the workplace.Reasons for
absenteeism include workers\' compensation, short-term disability, long-term disability, sick
leave, family medical leave, personal time off, and unpaid leave.
Presenteeism is defined as time not on task, Quality of work, instances and magnitude of
mistakes, capacity for peak performance, injury rates, Quantity of work.work capacity or output,
factors such as personal , mental, social, physical, emotional, functional status etc.
Employee turnover and replacement costs include the decreased productivity output associated
with the cost of hiring and training new employees.
Methods To use to overcome resistance
Moreover
Supervisors who directly manage employees are prime change agents. They must be won over,
trained to manage the change, with their feedback evaluated as change moves forward. Such
communication is important for employees as well, since full disclosure breeds security, a
remedy for resistance. Leaders should address individual concerns employees might have about
job security, wages and loss of control. Eroding resistance means giving employees reasons to
lower defenses..

Describe what is measured by the estimated standard error in the b.pdf
Describe what is meant by the term \"goodwill.\"
Solution
Definition
That part of business value over and above the value of identifiable business assets.
Meaning
Business goodwill is a key intangible asset that represents the portion of the business value that
cannot be attributed to other business assets.
Put differently, business goodwill reflects the synergy among the various assets used by the
business to produce income: in a well-run business the whole is greater than the sum of the parts.
Here are the key factors that contribute to the creation of business goodwill:
How to value business goodwill
Going concern value indicates the existence of business assets ready for use in producing
business income. The value is created because a business can effectively apply its capital
(financial resources and equipment), labor (employees), and coordination (management) to
produce economic benefits for its owners.
Excess business income implies the existence of earnings above a fair return on all the other
business assets. The idea is that this excess income is due to business goodwill.
Owners may believe that the business has additional value because they see it as being able to
create new products and services, attract new customers, and acquire or merge with other
businesses.
Types of business goodwill
For the purposes of small business valuation, you may be interested in these types of business
goodwill:
Institutional goodwill is associated with the business, its position in the marketplace and its
ability to effectively serve its customers.
Professional practice goodwill, as the name implies, is associated with professional practices
such as doctors, lawyers, CPAs, architects, engineers and other professional services. Unlike
business goodwill, the professional practice goodwill has two components:
Practitioner goodwill relates to the skill and reputation of the individual professional practitioner.
Practice goodwill, much like the business goodwill, arises from the professional practice itself,
its institutional reputation, location, track record and operating procedures that make it an
effective service provider that can produce superior income.
Accounting view of business goodwill
From the accounting perspective, business goodwill is generally recorded only if it is acquired as
part of a business or professional practice purchase. The typical way the accountants handle
business goodwill then is by subtracting the fair market value of the business tangible assets
from the total business value. Note that this definition of business goodwill captures all
intangible business assets, not just the goodwill.
Economic view of business goodwill
A quantitative view of business goodwill adopted by the economist is that it equals the
capitalized value of the business earnings in excess of the fair return on all the other business
assets, both tangible and intangible. This view seeks to establish the value of all identified
business assets by allocatin.

Describe two sales roles: the new business seller and the consultative seller. (< ~100 words)
Solution
Answer:
It\'s a rare buyer who won\'t want you to show him or her the ropes by remaining involved with
the business for a while after the sale. Often the deal won\'t fly unless you agree to this. At a
minimum, the buyer wants to be sure that the business is indeed a going concern. In addition,
buyers realize that much of the real business knowledge has never been written down, and when
you leave, it will go with you unless the new owner takes steps to learn it from you. Often a
significant part of the total cash you receive will be tied to your future involvement in the
business.
After-sale involvement can take a number of different forms. The most common are the
following:
Today Consultative Selling is almost a household word. It is an approach to selling in which
customer needs are used as the basis for the sales dialogue. When the word Consultative was
applied to sales in the 1970’s, it was revolutionary. It marked a major transition from the
salesperson as the purveyor of information and the customer as the recipient to a much more
collaborative interaction — one in which the customer’s needs, not the product — was the focal
point of the sale..

describe two alternatives that address concerns that GDP does not adequately account for

Solution
GDP is purely an economic indicator. It ignores the environmental and social impacts of
development.
The two alternatives that can address these concerns are described as follows:
1. Index of Sustainable Economic Welfare (ISEW) and Genuine Progress Indicator (GPI) :
This is a modification to GDP. Unit is in currency i.e $. it has 26 indicators in 4 domains to
asses. In this index, consumption expenditures are weighted by income distribution, with
volunteer and household work added to it and environmental and social costs subtracted from it.
Advantages: it takes care of income inequality, hidden contributors like household work and
environmental damage costs are included.
Disadvantages: It shows reduced developments than what actual GDP shows. So, actual
development in monetary terms might be more than what this index propose.
2. Genuine Savings :
This is an income accounts modification. Unit is in currency i.e $. it has 5 indicators in 3
domains to asses. In this index, level of saving are calculated after depreciation of produced
capital. It includes investments in human capital. The depletion of minerals, energy, and forests
and damages from local and global air pollutants are accounted for in this index.
Advantages: It modifies the savings to make it more real, and social and environmental costs are
included in this index.
Disadvantages: same disadvantage of making the development of a country look more less than
what GDP proposes..

Describe the purpose and meaning for each of the five ratio categories. Who uses the information
from each category? What constitutes a complete ratio analysis? Why is a complete analysis used
over a few key ratios?
Solution
solvency ratio: It measures the liquidity of the company by showing whether the company is able
to meet its short term and long term obligations.This ratio is used by lender or creditors of the
compnay .
financial leverage ratio : it is used as the ability to pay total debt of the company comparing with
the Equity and the total assets. A company is called to be a highly leverage ,when creditors own
a large part of assets . And when they own a small part , then it is called to be a less leverage
company.
Assets turnover ratio : it is used for knowing how efficiently the avergae total assets are being
used to generate the sales revenue . It is calculated as the net sale to Average total assets
Profitability ratio : It measures the percentage of net profit(sales - cost of goods sold and taxes )
to the sale revenue .Profitability ratio is used by the investors to know the efficiency of
generating profit
Market value ratio: This ratio is for measuring the market price of the share to their Book value

Describe three types of perceptual errors and provide an example of each.
Solution
hi,
please find the correct answer as follows;
The three types of perceptual errors are:
1) Halo effect: which is when our general impression of a person is based on like one prominent
characteristic, which dominates our perception of other characteristics of that person
Example: a person is sometimes late so the manager forms a negative impression of the person
and from then on sees everything the employee does negatively.
2) Primacy effect: our opinion of people is based on the first information we form about them
Example: we evaluate the person based on our first impression of them, so if we had a good first
impression you wuold view that person in a favourable light
3) Recency effect: when the most recent information dominates our perception of others
Example: when a manager evaluates an employee\'s performance, the most recent performance
dominates so if the last thing the employee did was sign a big contract with a supplier than the
manger will have a very positive impression of the employee.

strategy.
Solution
Hi,
Please find the correct answer as follows;
Similarity:
The similarity between the cost-leadership strategy and the focused cost-leadership strategy is
that they both focus on prividng the product at a lower cost to the consumers.
Difference;
The difference between the two is that cost leadership competes on the basis of lower costs while
the focussed cost-ledership competes on the basis of lower prices. A focused cost leadership
strategy requires competing based on price to target a narrow market
---------
Similarity:
Similarity between the differentiation strategy and the focused differentiation strategy is that
both focuses on providing differentiated products
Difference:
The difference between the two is that differentiation strategy only focusses on providing
differentiated products while focused differentiation strategy means targeting a small group of
customers with differentiated product along with cost leadership.

rectangle, and (5) square? Is a square a rectangle, is a rectangle an isosceles trapezoid, is an
isosceles trapezoid a trapezoid, is a trapezoid a quadrilateral? Explain.
c. How do parellelograms fit into the mix?
Solution
a.
It depends on how exactly you definite a \"kite\". Formally speaking, your teacher is wrong. A
kite is typically defined as a planar, convex quadrilateral where two adjacent sides are of the
same length as each other (\"a\"), and the other two adjacent sides are of the same length as each
other (\"b\"):
http://mathworld.wolfram.com/Kite.html
So in this sense, a rhombus is a type of kite (where a=b), and a square is a type of kite too
(where a=b, and there\'s a 90 degree angle).
I\'m guessing that your teacher is redefining \"kite\" to be such a shape where \'a\' and \'b\' are
strictly NOT equal to each other, or some equivalent of that. In that case, your teacher is correct.
But this confusion is why it\'s important to have formal definitions in mathematics.

Describe the organization of the statement of cash flows. And how do you compute net income?
Solution
The cash flow statement reports the company\'s major sources and uses of cash during a period
of time. The Cash Flow Statement is organized into three major sections: Cash from Operating
activities (transaction entered in determining net income), cash from investing activities
(involves acqusition and sale of long-term assets) and cash from financing activities (borrowing
or lending long term debt or capital). There can be one more activity i.e. Supplemental
information such as interest paid, income taxes paid, and significant noncash exchanges. Net
income relates to the above mentioned cash from operating activities. It can be computed
Indirectly (using Nt income from profit & Loss and than excluding non cash and non operating
transaction) or Directly (Cash received and paid in normal business activities)..

Describe the operating cycle and the cash cycle. What are the differences?
Solution
Operating Cycle:
An operating cycle is the amount of time a company spends between spending money operating
activities and collecting money from the same operating activity. Operating cycle often focus on
the purchase and sale of assets. For instance a retailer\'s operating cycle would be the time
between buying merchandise inventory and selling the same inventory. A manufacturer\'s
operating cycle might start when the company spends money on raw manufacturing materials to
make a product. The operating cycle wouldn\'t end until the products are produced and sold to
retailers or wholesalers.
Most companies try to keep their operating cycles at a year or less. This means that it would take
a retailer an entire year to sell its inventory. Depending on the industry, this kind of an inventory
turn might be unacceptable. Operating cycles are important because they determine cash flow. If
a company is able to keep a short operating cycle, its cash flow will consistent and the company
won\'t have problems paying current liabilities. Conversely, long operating cycle means that
current assets are not being turned into cash very quickly. In other words, cash is not being
collected from customer very quickly. Companies with longer operating cycles often have to
borrow from banks in order to pay short term liabilities. These companies are often less
profitable because of these extra loans.
Operating Cycle = Days\' Sales of Inventory + Days Sales Outstanding
Cash Conversion Cycle:
The cash conversion cycle is a cash flow calculation that attempts to measure the time it takes a
company to convert its investment in inventory and other resource inputs into cash. In other
words, the cash conversion cycle calculation measures how long cash is tied up in inventory
before the inventory is sold and cash is collected from customers.
The cash cycle has three distinct parts. The first part of the cycle represents the current inventory
level and how long it will take the company to sell this inventory. This stage is calculated by
using the days inventory outstanding calculation.
The second stage of the cash cycle represents the current sales and the amount of time it takes to
collect the cash from these sales. This is calculated by using the days sales outstanding
calculation.
The third stage represents the current outstanding payables. In other words, this represents how
much a company owes its current vendors for inventory and goods purchases and when the
company will have to pay off its vendors. This is calculated by using the days payables
outstanding calculation.
cash conversion cycle = Days inventory outstanding + Days Sales outstanding – Days payables

Describe the methods of job evaluation. Which method would you prefer to use and why?
Solution
Methoods of Job Evaluation. We will use point method because of reasons expained in point
method.
Ranking Method
Perhaps the simplest method of job evaluation is the ranking method. According to this method,
jobs are arranged from highest to lowest, in order of their value or merit to the organization. Jobs
also can be arranged according to the relative difficulty in performing them. The jobs are
examined as a whole rather than on the basis of important factors in the job; and the job at the
top of the list has the highest value and obviously the job at the bottom of the list will have the
lowest value.
Jobs are usually ranked in each department and then the department rankings are combined to
develop an organizational ranking. The following table is a hypothetical illustration of ranking of
jobs.
Table: Array of Jobs according to the Ranking Method
Rank Monthly salaries
1. Accountant Rs 3,000
2. Accounts clerk Rs 1,800
3. Purchase assistant Rs 1,700
4. Machine-operator Rs 1,400
5. Typist Rs 900
6. Office boy Rs 600
Classification Method
According to this method, a predetermined number of job groups or job classes are established
and jobs are assigned to these classifications. This method places groups of jobs into job classes
or job grades. Separate classes may include office, clerical, managerial, personnel, etc. Following
is a brief description of such a classification in an office.
(a) Class I - Executives: Further classification under this category may be Office
manager, Deputy office manager, Office superintendent, Departmental supervisor, etc.
(b) Class II - Skilled workers: Under this category may come the Purchasing assistant,
Cashier, Receipts clerk, etc.
(c) Class III - Semiskilled workers: Under this category may come Stenotypists,
Machine-operators, Switchboard operators, etc.
(d) Class IV - Semiskilled workers: This category comprises Daftaris, File clerks, Office
boys, etc.
The job classification method is less subjective when compared to the earlier ranking method.
The system is very easy to understand and acceptable to almost all employees without hesitation.
One strong point in favor of the method is that it takes into account all the factors that a job
comprises. This system can be effectively used for a variety of jobs.
The weaknesses of the job classification method are:
Factor Comparison Method
A more systematic and scientific method of job evaluation is the factor comparison method.
Though it is the most complex method of all, it is consistent and appreciable. Under this method,
instead of ranking complete jobs, each job is ranked according to a series of factors. These
factors include mental effort, physical effort, skill needed, supervisory responsibility, working
conditions and other relevant factors (for instance, know-how, problem solving abilities,
accountability, etc.). Pay will be assigned in this method by comparing t.

Solution
Definition
That part of business value over and above the value of identifiable business assets.
Meaning
Business goodwill is a key intangible asset that represents the portion of the business value that
cannot be attributed to other business assets.
Put differently, business goodwill reflects the synergy among the various assets used by the
business to produce income: in a well-run business the whole is greater than the sum of the parts.
Here are the key factors that contribute to the creation of business goodwill:
How to value business goodwill
Going concern value indicates the existence of business assets ready for use in producing
business income. The value is created because a business can effectively apply its capital
(financial resources and equipment), labor (employees), and coordination (management) to
produce economic benefits for its owners.
Excess business income implies the existence of earnings above a fair return on all the other
business assets. The idea is that this excess income is due to business goodwill.
Owners may believe that the business has additional value because they see it as being able to
create new products and services, attract new customers, and acquire or merge with other
businesses.

3) Recency effect: when the most recent information dominates our perception of others
Example: when a manager evaluates an employee\'s performance, the most recent performance
dominates so if the last thing the employee did was sign a big contract with a supplier than the
manger will have a very positive impression of the employee.

Describe the transition of construction safety before and after the enactment of the Occupational
Safety and Health Act of 1970. Provide a minimum of three specific aspects of changes in
responsibility of safety, safety culture and motivation for safe work practices and conditions.
Solution
11th US Congress enacted the act in 1970 under President Nixon.Before the enactment of this
act, there were no standards and norms regarding the safety of employees and workers especially
in private sector may it be construction or any other sector. Thus this act provided a firm
platform and legal means for the workers to work with in case of any inju astice.
Especially through section 5 -General duty clause, the responsibility of safety was
considered.Under section 8 and 11c, the reporting of accidents was made mandatory within 8
hours without any discrimination with the worker who has reported..

Describe the similarities and differences between the cost-leadership strategy and the focused
cost-leadership strategy; and between the differentiation strategy and the focused differentiation
strategy.
Solution
Hi,
Please find the correct answer as follows;
Similarity:
The similarity between the cost-leadership strategy and the focused cost-leadership strategy is
that they both focus on prividng the product at a lower cost to the consumers.
Difference;
The difference between the two is that cost leadership competes on the basis of lower costs while
the focussed cost-ledership competes on the basis of lower prices. A focused cost leadership
strategy requires competing based on price to target a narrow market
---------
Similarity:
Similarity between the differentiation strategy and the focused differentiation strategy is that
both focuses on providing differentiated products
Difference:
The difference between the two is that differentiation strategy only focusses on providing
differentiated products while focused differentiation strategy means targeting a small group of
customers with differentiated product along with cost leadership.

Describe the relatinship between different quadrilateralsin this hierarcy. Explain your answer.
a. What is the relationships between a (1) quadrilateral, (2) kite, (3) rhombus, and (4) square? is a
square a rhombus, is a rhombus a kite, is a kite a quadrilateral? Explain.
b. What is the relationship between a (1) quaddrilateral, (2) trapezoid, (3) isoscles trapezoid, (4)
rectangle, and (5) square? Is a square a rectangle, is a rectangle an isosceles trapezoid, is an
isosceles trapezoid a trapezoid, is a trapezoid a quadrilateral? Explain.
c. How do parellelograms fit into the mix?
Solution
a.
It depends on how exactly you definite a \"kite\". Formally speaking, your teacher is wrong. A
kite is typically defined as a planar, convex quadrilateral where two adjacent sides are of the
same length as each other (\"a\"), and the other two adjacent sides are of the same length as each
other (\"b\"):
http://mathworld.wolfram.com/Kite.html
So in this sense, a rhombus is a type of kite (where a=b), and a square is a type of kite too
(where a=b, and there\'s a 90 degree angle).
I\'m guessing that your teacher is redefining \"kite\" to be such a shape where \'a\' and \'b\' are
strictly NOT equal to each other, or some equivalent of that. In that case, your teacher is correct.
But this confusion is why it\'s important to have formal definitions in mathematics.

Describe the organization of the statement of cash flows. And how do you compute net income?
Solution
The cash flow statement reports the company\'s major sources and uses of cash during a period
of time. The Cash Flow Statement is organized into three major sections: Cash from Operating
activities (transaction entered in determining net income), cash from investing activities
(involves acqusition and sale of long-term assets) and cash from financing activities (borrowing
or lending long term debt or capital). There can be one more activity i.e. Supplemental
information such as interest paid, income taxes paid, and significant noncash exchanges. Net
income relates to the above mentioned cash from operating activities. It can be computed
Indirectly (using Nt income from profit & Loss and than excluding non cash and non operating
transaction) or Directly (Cash received and paid in normal business activities)..

Describe the options at the disposal of the government to finance a fiscal deficit. What are the
relative advantages and disadvantages of each option?
Solution
There are three main ways the government can finance a deficit and the relative advantages and
disadvantages of each option
Firstly, the government can borrow funds from the other sectors of the economy. This involves
the selling of new Commonwealth Government Securities (CGS) such as treasury bonds through
a tender system.
When the Federal Government sells CGS it competes with the private sector for domestic
savings, creating what is referred to as a.

Describe the pattern of residuals in each plot. Is there any evidence that the linear regression
assumptions may be violated? Explain briefly.
Solution
From the plots we can observe that there is a randomnes in the residuals which indicates that
there is a decent fit of data
Suppose if there is any non random behaviour of residuals we can say that the fit is non linear
but here there is no such abnormality which indicates that the fit is good.

Describe the operating cycle and the cash cycle. What are the differences?
Solution
Operating Cycle:
An operating cycle is the amount of time a company spends between spending money operating
activities and collecting money from the same operating activity. Operating cycle often focus on
the purchase and sale of assets. For instance a retailer\'s operating cycle would be the time
between buying merchandise inventory and selling the same inventory. A manufacturer\'s
operating cycle might start when the company spends money on raw manufacturing materials to
make a product. The operating cycle wouldn\'t end until the products are produced and sold to
retailers or wholesalers.
Most companies try to keep their operating cycles at a year or less. This means that it would take
a retailer an entire year to sell its inventory. Depending on the industry, this kind of an inventory
turn might be unacceptable. Operating cycles are important because they determine cash flow. If
a company is able to keep a short operating cycle, its cash flow will consistent and the company
won\'t have problems paying current liabilities. Conversely, long operating cycle means that
current assets are not being turned into cash very quickly. In other words, cash is not being
collected from customer very quickly. Companies with longer operating cycles often have to
borrow from banks in order to pay short term liabilities. These companies are often less
profitable because of these extra loans.
Operating Cycle = Days\' Sales of Inventory + Days Sales Outstanding
Cash Conversion Cycle:
The cash conversion cycle is a cash flow calculation that attempts to measure the time it takes a
company to convert its investment in inventory and other resource inputs into cash. In other
words, the cash conversion cycle calculation measures how long cash is tied up in inventory
before the inventory is sold and cash is collected from customers.
The cash cycle has three distinct parts. The first part of the cycle represents the current inventory
level and how long it will take the company to sell this inventory. This stage is calculated by
using the days inventory outstanding calculation.
The second stage of the cash cycle represents the current sales and the amount of time it takes to
collect the cash from these sales. This is calculated by using the days sales outstanding
calculation.
The third stage represents the current outstanding payables. In other words, this represents how
much a company owes its current vendors for inventory and goods purchases and when the
company will have to pay off its vendors. This is calculated by using the days payables
outstanding calculation.
cash conversion cycle = Days inventory outstanding + Days Sales outstanding – Days payables
outstanding

An operating cycle is the average time period between the acquisition of inventory and the
receipt of cash from the inventory\'s sale. A short operating cycle means a mo.

Describe the methods of job evaluation. Which method would you prefer to use and why?
Solution
Methoods of Job Evaluation. We will use point method because of reasons expained in point
method.
Ranking Method
Perhaps the simplest method of job evaluation is the ranking method. According to this method,
jobs are arranged from highest to lowest, in order of their value or merit to the organization. Jobs
also can be arranged according to the relative difficulty in performing them. The jobs are
examined as a whole rather than on the basis of important factors in the job; and the job at the
top of the list has the highest value and obviously the job at the bottom of the list will have the
lowest value.
Jobs are usually ranked in each department and then the department rankings are combined to
develop an organizational ranking. The following table is a hypothetical illustration of ranking of
jobs.
Table: Array of Jobs according to the Ranking Method
Rank Monthly salaries
1. Accountant Rs 3,000
2. Accounts clerk Rs 1,800
3. Purchase assistant Rs 1,700
4. Machine-operator Rs 1,400
5. Typist Rs 900
6. Office boy Rs 600
Classification Method
According to this method, a predetermined number of job groups or job classes are established
and jobs are assigned to these classifications. This method places groups of jobs into job classes
or job grades. Separate classes may include office, clerical, managerial, personnel, etc. Following
is a brief description of such a classification in an office.
(a) Class I - Executives: Further classification under this category may be Office
manager, Deputy office manager, Office superintendent, Departmental supervisor, etc.
(b) Class II - Skilled workers: Under this category may come the Purchasing assistant,
Cashier, Receipts clerk, etc.
(c) Class III - Semiskilled workers: Under this category may come Stenotypists,
Machine-operators, Switchboard operators, etc.
(d) Class IV - Semiskilled workers: This category comprises Daftaris, File clerks, Office
boys, etc.
The job classification method is less subjective when compared to the earlier ranking method.
The system is very easy to understand and acceptable to almost all employees without hesitation.
One strong point in favor of the method is that it takes into account all the factors that a job
comprises. This system can be effectively used for a variety of jobs.
The weaknesses of the job classification method are:
Factor Comparison Method
A more systematic and scientific method of job evaluation is the factor comparison method.
Though it is the most complex method of all, it is consistent and appreciable. Under this method,
instead of ranking complete jobs, each job is ranked according to a series of factors. These
factors include mental effort, physical effort, skill needed, supervisory responsibility, working
conditions and other relevant factors (for instance, know-how, problem solving abilities,
accountability, etc.). Pay will be assigned in this method by comparing t.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdf
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
