1 ECO 500 Final Project Guidelines and Rubric Overview The final project for this course is the creation of an economic analysis recommendation paper. This course is an integral part of your journey toward a better understanding of the economy and of how the business you work for fits into it. The manager who excels at his or her job is able to make the connection between general theory and specific application. Your final project provides you with the opportunity to practice and develop these skills. In this course, you will learn about economic principles—supply and demand, production and costs, market structures—and see how they apply to real-world situations. You will also learn about economic forecasting and tools used in strategic decision making. Being able to see the big picture and having the skills of economic analysis will help you become more effective as a manager. Although there are several general principles that hold in most organizations, such as trade-offs in the use of resources and customer budget constraints, the circumstances in which these principles apply are unique. In this project, you will take on the role of an economic analyst at a company. An executive at the company has asked you to research an issue that affects your organization and recommend a solution. Choose from one of the case studies listed below and research a given issue that affects the organization, determine the issue’s relationship to economics, and report on your analysis and recommendation. This assessment requires you to understand the big-picture context of a question, narrow down to a specific statement or set of statements to research, and present your findings. You may encounter additional companies\case studies within your ECO 500 Case Study CoursePack.

She is considering investing part of these funds in a small catering operation to compliment the Church’s current practices. · She would need to purchase a delivery van, pots, pans, computers and various other equipment costing $200,000 to start the business right now and · She would be required to set aside $10,000 in working capital that will be released at the end of the project. · Jane's marketing studies indicate that the annual cash inflow from the project will amount to $90,000. She will need to pay rent on the building to be used by the business of $24,000 per year. · In addition to the building rent, other annual cash expenses for food, supplies, utilities and other operating costs will amount to $30,000. · Jane will use volunteers so she will not need to pay labor. She hopes to use the catering business to teach new skills to the unemployed. · Jane wants to operate the catering business for only six years. She estimates that the equipment could be sold at the end of the sixth year for $20,000. · The church uses a required rate of return of 4%.

If you want partial credit - submit your spreadsheets and attach Project 3 Report and Competition Grading Guidelines ME 286 Engineering Design: The Process ***Subject to change In general, any technical report or memo should adhere to the following guidelines regardless of its overall format. These guidelines are typically covered in technical writing courses. Here are the guidelines that I hold to be absolutely critical to a good report: 1. Any supporting material, e.g. tables or figures, must be referenced in the text body of the report. If you do not reference it, then why include it? Label figures as Table # or Figure # and always reference from the text, using “Table #” or “Fig. #.” 2. If possible, integrate the reference material directly into the body of the document. This is certainly true for figures and reasonably sized tables. If you include a great deal of information, then consider appending it to the end of the document and referencing it in the text. 3. Technical reports should include 1) an executive summary of the information (something a supervisor or customer several levels up might read); 2) an introduction that also lays out the scope of the report and the motivation for it; 3) the approach taken in c ...

Six Sigma Report HammettSix Sigma DMAIC Project Report Template Comments · The following template provides guidelines for preparing a Six Sigma written certification project report. Subheadings and length of each section will obviously vary based on your findings and writing style. For a complete sample report using the template, see “Sample Project Report”. · The information in your report should follow the Six-Sigma Problem Solving Methodology DMAIC. This includes a description of the project, key points in the problem-solving process, and detailed support for your conclusions and any recommendations. Reports should be approximately 10-12 double-spaced pages (excluding appendices), including tables and figures. · Some general guidelines for grammar and format are provided for your reference at the end. · Some information contained in this template is repetitive across sections. However, since different audiences will read your report to various degrees of depth, we believe that it is essential to repeat certain information. Ultimately, you should produce a high quality, professionally-presented report that has sufficient detail to help other Six Sigma practitioners utilize and build upon your project findings. Title of Report Submitted to: Name, Title Department/Organization Address (optional) Prepared by: Name, Title Department/Organization Address (optional) Date Submitted Note: Do not put a page number on your title page. Begin numbering the pages with the Executive Summary. Executive Summary The Executive Summary presents the major information contained in the report. Its readers are typically managers who need a broad understanding of the project and how it fits into a coherent whole. These readers do not need or want a detailed understanding of the various steps taken to complete your project. Therefore, the Executive Summary allows readers to learn the gist of the report without reading the entire document, to determine whether the report is relevant to their needs, or to get an overview before focusing on the details. We consider writing a concise (typically one-page) and comprehensive executive summary a critical element of a Six Sigma project report. TheExecutive Summary should NOT include terms, abbreviations, or symbols unfamiliar to the reader. Readers should understand the content of the Executive Summary without reading the rest of the report. The Executive Summary should include a problem statement, summary of approach used, and major project findings and recommendations. · Problem Statement / Description · Concisely describe the problem (few sentences). · Identify the time period of the problem · Quantify the degree of the problem and its impact on the business (if possible). Example: During the past year, the average # of incoming calls with complaints per card-year has increased by 20%. These additional calls have resulted in additional staffing and facility costs of ~$100K per year. This proj.

ECO 510 Final Project Guidelines and Rubric Overview The final project for this course is the creation of an empirical analysis for HHS executives. Economists conduct research, collect and analyze data, monitor economic trends, and develop forecasts. They use their understanding of economic relationships to advise businesses, industry, and government agencies. For this assignment, you are tasked to be an economist consulting on a study to advise the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) on economic and demographic factors that might influence the amount of physical activity of the population. Understanding this nexus among economics, demographics, and physical activity will be vital for HHS to be able to focus its limited funding for a health improvement initiative. 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, Seven, and Nine. The final project will be submitted in Module Ten. In this assignment, you will demonstrate your mastery of the following course outcomes: • Analyze quantitative data through the integration of appropriate and relevant mathematical objects such as matrices, polynomials, graphs, and derivatives to solve economic problems • Apply appropriate data collection instruments and measures for planning and conducting economic research • Analyze statistical data using appropriate statistical methodologies for the study of economic growth, business cycles, and other dynamic business behavior • Apply probability theory in making economic decisions to competitively position a business Prompt The aim of the HHS initiative, known as NEXI (National Economics of Exercise Initiative), is to increase the amount of leisure-time physical activity of the population for health and economic benefits. A secondary aim of NEXI is to provide some directions for small businesses, nonprofits, and states to apply for contracts and grants, which will provide more leisure-time physical activities to the U.S. population. Therefore, your empirical analysis should answer the following questions: • What are some economic and demographic factors that influence the level of leisure-time physical activity? • Which states and which geographical regions might benefit the most from NEXI? • What kind of businesses can monetarily benefit by creating services for NEXI (based on your findings for the previous questions)? What are the optimal services? 'v ,..,ellOrm the statistical tests, you will use Minitab. The four assigned critical tasks are designed to give a basic introduction to some of the main statistical functions that you will use for your empirical analysis. Specifically, the following critical elements must be addressed: I. Research. The research will provide foundational knowledge for you to select the appropriate data sets and qualitativ ...

You BUSINESS INTELLIGENCE – Individual Report will be required to write a business report in Word and develop a clear discussion derived from the relevant literature related to your topic. You are encouraged to use examples of BI tools or applications to illustrate the findings in your report. Examples are the spreadsheet package Excel, database application Access, BI tools like SAS, Cognos etc., development programs, diagrams, charts and tables that help better understand your report. The report should be targeted at the Board of Directors or Executive Management group and be formatted as a formal business report. The content of the report, including tables and graphs must be appropriate for a Senior Management audience.Assignment focus: There is a large amount of information available on Business Intelligence. I suggest that you identify key themes described in the course and use those themes as a basis of their analysis. This approach will give you the ability to study the key aspects of the course at a reasonable depth. While the theoretical underpinnings of the assignment will be primarily drawn from lectures/seminars, tutorials and the textbook, students are expected to supplement this with academic and practitioner-based literature. A limitation of this assignment is that you have only got a short period of time to identify, collect, analyse, and report on your findings. Assessment of your work will take this into account as long as you demonstrate a “reasonable attempt” Narrow down your focus to an issue/problem that is small enough to allow you to complete your analysis in 6 to 8 weeks while avoiding addressing a trivial issue. Use tables and graphs, as appropriate, to communicate your findings and recommendations Criteria guide for Project A general guide used for marking is attached.

BA is used to gain insights that inform business decisions and can be used to automate and optimize business processes. Data-driven companies treat their data as a corporate asset and leverage it for a competitive advantage. Successful business analytics depends on data quality, skilled analysts who understand the technologies and the business, and an organizational commitment to data-driven decision-making. Business analytics examples Business analytics techniques break down into two main areas. The first is basic business intelligence. This involves examining historical data to get a sense of how a business department, team or staff member performed over a particular time. This is a mature practice that most enterprises are fairly accomplished at using.

In what ways did the evolution of an exoskeleton help insects be well-adapted for life on land? Select all that apply. Its impermeability to water allowed insects to move farther from water without dessicating It gave them the rigid structural support needed to survive the force of gravity away from water. It allowed them to breathe much more efficiently through their skins It allows them to grow larger indefinitely without any sort of metamorphosis or shedding.

in this case we chose the best option would be to work with the government but I want to summarize why this option is the best in the situation and gather the ethical reasoning and constraints behind it. H. B. Fuller and the Street Children of Central America The article was one of many published on street children in Latin American cities during the early 1990s. The issue on which it focused was one that children's advocates had brought to the attention of H. B. Fuller Company repeatedly over many years. The article On a sidewalk in San Pedro Sula, Honduras ... a lanky, dark-haired boy [is] sitting with arms curled around his folded legs, staring at the passing traffic. The boy, a nineteen-year-old named Marvin, has been sniffing glue for ten years. Once the leader of a gang of street kids, he now has slurred speech and vacant eyes. A year ago, Marvin began to lose feeling in his legs. Now he can no longer walk. He slides on his butt, spiderlike, through gutters, across streets, and along the sidewalks. Still loyal to their chief, the younger kids in his gang bring Marvin food, carry him to a news stand to spend the night, and make sure he has enough glue to stay high. ... Doctors offer no hope that Marvin will ever walk again. Toluene, the solvent in the glue he sniffs, is a neurotoxin known to cause irreparable nerve damage. ... In Honduras, the drug of choice for children is H. B. Fuller's Resistol, a common shoe-glue made with toluene. Toluene creates the high the children come to crave ... Sniffing the glue is so common ... that the common name for street kids is Resistoleros. 1 Marvin was not the only casualty of the toluene-based glue. Toluene, a sweet-smelling chemical used as a solvent for the ingredients in adhesives, destroys the thin layers of fat that surround nerves, causing them to die. Occasional inhalation will produce nosebleeds and rashes while habitual use produces numerous disorders including: severe neurological dysfunction, brain atrophy, loss of liver and kidney functions, loss of sight and hearing, leukemia, and muscle atrophy. Prolonged use can result in eventual death. For over a decade, thousands of homeless children throughout Latin America, but most visibly in Guatemala and Honduras, had become addicted to inhaling the glue. Many of them were thought to have died while many more were now severely disabled by blindness, diminished brain functioning and crippling muscle atrophy. H. B. Fuller had total revenues of $1.243 billion in 1995 , up from $1.097 billion in 1994. Profits had totalled $392 million in 1995 and $354 million in 1994. Founded in 1887, the company was now a global manufacturer of adhesives, sealants, and other specialty chemicals, and had operations in over 40 countries in North America, Europe, Asia, and Latin America. While 15 percent of its sales revenues came from its Latin American operations, those operations accounted for 27 percent of its profits, indicative of the fact that its Latin Amer.

In the vertebrate brain, each region is specialized in function. The forebrain, which contains the olfactory bulb and cerebrum, has activities that include processing of olfactory input (smells), regulation of sleep, learning, and any complex processing. The midbrain, located centrally in the brain, coordinates routing of sensory input. The hindbrain, part of which forms the cerebellum, controls involuntary activities, such as blood circulation, and coordinates motor activities, such as locomotion. Why might you expect to see a larger olfactory bulb and midbrain compared to the cerebrum in rayfinned fishes? What trends would you expect to see in birds and mammals? Why?.
