Government executive bodies rely on monetary and monetary strategies to keep the economy from overwhelming or pushing them back. The Phillips inflection shows that inflation and unemployment generally have an inverse relationship. Low unemployment is usually associated with an economic expansion, and high unemployment can lead to a decline or even collapse. Inflation fluctuates in the short term, with higher rates of expansion usually occurring during periods of prosperity or immediately following prosperity periods. For example, the most significant spurt of US economic expansion in the 20th century followed World War II and its wartime explosion. After that, the economy expanded again and fell sharply during the recession (McCausland, Summerfield, & Theodossiou, 2020). Expanded valuing for labor and products, including work, materials, and energy, can result from inflationary tension. Organizations will see an expansion in benefits if they can give these increasing costs to clients as higher costs for labor and products. Incomes from expansion are limited at a more special rate than benefits from day-to-day corporate tasks. This way, expansion not just misleads work, result, and speculation; it additionally puts these exercises over the long haul down. The connection among organic markets affects the net revenues of organizations with stock. Oversupply, as well as low interest, will bring about high stock costs for the business.

How do inflation, unemployment, aggregate demand, and supply

profitability?
The relationship between inflation and unemployment was
generally inversely proportional. Nonetheless, this relationship
has been surprisingly skewed from the start, breaking up over
various events over the past few years. Inflation and labor force
(and unemployment) are perhaps the most tightly controlled
financial indicators. So let us look at these relationships and

1) The study examines how profitability influences firm value, with capital structure (leverage) as a mediator, and industry type and firm size as moderators.
2) The authors hypothesize that profitability has a positive effect on firm value but a negative effect on leverage. Leverage, in turn, is expected to negatively impact firm value.
3) Industry type and firm size are expected to moderate the relationships between profitability, leverage, and firm value. The study uses data from Taiwanese listed companies to test these hypotheses.
The Perverse Incentives of Modern Management Remuneration
Modern management remuneration practices that emphasize short-term incentives like bonuses and stock options have negatively impacted business investment and economic growth. This is because management focuses more on metrics that determine their pay in the short-term rather than long-term risks. Evidence shows that as management pay changed, business investment as a percentage of GDP and output declined sharply. Other potential explanations for low investment like economic conditions or financing costs have been ruled out. The system of modern management pay therefore likely needs reform to revive urgently needed business investment and productivity growth in the UK economy.

Executing Strategy in the Midst of the "Perfect Storm"
The document discusses how organizations in the Middle East are facing a "perfect storm" of crises due to the Arab Spring uprisings, ongoing effects of the global financial crisis, and uncertain global economic conditions. It argues that integrating strategic planning and budgeting processes is critical for organizations to balance short-term needs with long-term priorities during turbulent times. Specifically, it recommends linking strategy to budgets, improving cost/benefit analysis of projects, aligning employee goals with performance management, and streamlining monitoring systems to focus on strategic objectives and resource expenditures.

It notes that recessions are defined as two consecutive quarters of negative GDP growth and depressions see over 10% declines in actual GDP. Previous recessions have severely impacted sectors like finance, construction, housing, agriculture, and aviation. The document advocates for contingency planning and proposes actions companies can take to manage impacts on revenues, supply chains, productivity, costs and employees. It emphasizes the need for cooperation between government, businesses and society to maintain confidence and overcome economic downturns.

The document discusses the issue of stalled capital formation in India and its negative impact on economic growth. It notes that gross capital formation, which indicates new investment in factories, infrastructure, etc., has grown much more slowly than GDP in recent years. In particular, capital formation in the manufacturing sector has declined sharply. This collapse in new investments is the root cause of the economic slowdown, as it reduces job creation, incomes, and consumption over time. The document argues that GDP growth cannot recover without addressing the problems that have caused capital formation to stall, such as high non-performing assets of banks that have restricted new lending.
Corporate turn around strategies by financially distressed
This document summarizes a research study on corporate turnaround strategies used by financially distressed companies listed on the Nairobi Securities Exchange from 2002-2008. The study found that the most common strategy used was employee layoffs (63% of companies), followed by asset restructuring (50% of companies). Debt restructuring and top management changes were the least used strategies. Restructuring strategies were more intensive in the year of distress and less so in subsequent years, presumably to address immediate liquidity issues. The document provides context on definitions of financial distress, factors influencing bankruptcy risk, and previous literature on turnaround strategies.

ECON 301 Week 5 Discussions
Group 2 US Trade Policy
Summary
For our group project we have decided to research, analyze, and formulate an argument on the World Trade Organization (WTO) in regards to the US Trade Policy. In our paper we have discussed what WTO stands for and the goal of this organization. We have also addressed the latest form of trade negotiations among the WTO membership – Doha Development Round and the controversial topics of protectionism and free trade. Among the research we have performed, we as a group have come to a conclusion that we support this organization. Although there are incomplete developments that still need to be addressed, we continue to support this organization because of the fact that numerous nations come together in order to reform these conflicts.
Questions:
1. What makes free trade a better option than protectionism for the economic situation in the US?
2. What consequences would the WTO face if they acted unethically given their power?
Group 3 US Fiscal Policy
Fiscal Policy refers to the practice of monitoring spending levels and tax rates to try and influence our economy. Before the Great Depression, which started in the late twenties, our government had a hands off approach to the economy or a laissez-faire approach. After the Second World War it was deemed necessary for the government to become involved in our economy. (Heakal, Reem) They decided this would be necessary in order to attempt to influence unemployment, the business cycle and inflation. Of course there are many different ideas on the best approach and way to accomplish this.
The government takes initiative in trying to regulate unemployment, unemployment benefits, and taxation. They do this through the use of what is known as automatic stabilizers, which are programs and policies meant to balance fluctuations in the economy. During a recession, automatic stabilizers are expanded, and during an economic boom, the automatic stabilizers are reduced. An example of this would be unemployment benefits (David Weil). When there is a recession and unemployment is high, the government spends more money on unemployment benefits, whereas when the unemployment is low, the government spends less money on unemployment benefits. According to William J. Carrington, an analyst of the Congressional budget office, some of the fiscal policies used to reduce unemployment include household assistance (reducing employees’ taxes, increased unemployment insurance expenditures, and more refundable tax), business assistance, and financial aid to the states. Carrington also shows that to reduce unemployment, unemployment benefit policies must be modified such as an extension to the duration of benefits, reemployment bonuses, and offering wage insurance. Fiscal Policy can also be used to influence new ideas like those in alternative energies.
The United States government often tries to finds ways to stimulate the economy while looking towards its future. T ...

risk and return.pptx
This document discusses risk and return from an investment perspective. It defines risk as the probability of getting a return less than expected, which can arise from unexpected changes in dividends, interest rates or stock prices. Risk is categorized as either systematic, stemming from broader economic and market forces outside an investor's control, or unsystematic, which is specific to a particular company. Systematic risk includes market risk, interest rate risk and purchasing power risk. Unsystematic risk includes business risk, related to company-specific operations, and financial risk, regarding a company's capital structure. Standard deviation is presented as a quantitative measure of risk, assessing the dispersion of returns around the expected mean return.
AnsAns I am going to focus my remarks today on what is popularly.pdf
Ans:
Ans: I am going to focus my remarks today on what is popularly known as the “too big to fail”
(TBTF) problem. In particular, should society tolerate a financial system in which certain
financial institutions are deemed to be too big to fail? And, if not, then what should we do about
it?
The answer to the first question is clearly “no.” We cannot tolerate a financial system in which
some firms are too big to fail—at least not ones that operate in any form other than that of a very
tightly regulated utility.
The second question is the more interesting one. Is the current approach of the official sector to
ending TBTF the right one? I’d characterize this approach as reducing the incentives for firms to
operate with a large systemic footprint, reducing the likelihood of them failing, and lowering the
cost to society when they do fail. Or would it be better to take the more direct, but less nuanced
approach advocated by some and simply break up the most systemically important firms into
smaller or simpler pieces in the hope that what emerges is no longer systemic and too big to fail?
What Is the Too-Big-to-Fail Problem?
The root cause of “too big to fail’ is the fact that in our financial system as it exists today, the
failure of large complex financial firms generate large, undesirable externalities. These include
disruption of the stability of the financial system and its ability to provide credit and other
essential financial services to households and businesses. When this happens, not only is the
financial sector disrupted, but its troubles cascade over into the real economy.
There are negative externalities associated with the failure of any financial firm, but these are
disproportionately high in the case of large, complex and interconnected firms. Although the
moniker is “too big to fail,” the magnitude of these externalities does not depend simply on size.
The size of the externalities also depends on the particular mix of business activities and the
degree of interconnectedness with the rest of the financial industry. One important element is the
importance of the services the firm provides to the broader financial system and the economy
and the ease with which customers can move their business to other providers. Another is the
extent to which the firm’s structure and activities create the potential for contagion—that is,
direct losses for counterparties, fire sales of assets held by other leveraged financial institutions,
or loss of confidence that might precipitate runs on other firms with similar business models.
The presence of large negative externalities creates a dilemma for policymakers when such firms
are in danger of failing, particularly if the wider financial system is also under stress at the same
moment. At that point in time, the expected costs to society of failure are very large compared to
the short-run costs from providing the extraordinary liquidity support, capital or other emergency
assistance necessary to pre.

ECONOMIC COMMENTARY Number 2014-09May 8, 2014
Why Do Economists Still Disagree over
Government Spending Multipliers?
Daniel Carroll
Public debate about the effects of government spending heated up after record-large stimulus packages were enacted
to address the fallout of the fi nancial crisis. Almost as noticeable as the discord was the absence of consensus among
prominent economists on the issue. While it seems a simple problem to estimate the effect of government spending on
output—the size of the government multiplier—it is anything but.
ISSN 0428-1276
Over the past several years, attention has focused on the
dangers of medium- and long-run imbalances in government
budgets. This was less the case at the beginning of the
recent fi nancial crisis, when the question was if and how the
government should try to stimulate the economy. But before
long, the debate surfaced. Some argued that the government
should prop up falling private demand with increased
spending. Others claimed that increased government
spending would have little to no stimulative effect in the
short run and that it might even be contractionary.
Economists could offer little in the way of clarifi cation, with
venerated scholars falling on both sides of the debate. This
failure of economists to agree on the issue leads some in
the public to suppose that economists are incompetent, or
perhaps worse, politically motivated.
The truth is that economists have struggled to answer
the question, “What effect does an increase in government
spending today have on output in the future?” In economics,
this effect is called the government spending multiplier,
and unfortunately for those of us who would like certainty
on the matter, there are major challenges associated with
measuring it. An appreciation for these challenges should
explain why competent scholars can hold widely different
opinions about the effect of government spending on output.
Measurement Challenges
Problems with measuring the government spending
multiplier begin at the outset—with the way the question
itself is phrased. At fi rst, it seems like a natural question,
but in fact it is far too general.
For starters, it is presumptuous to speak of “the”
government spending multiplier as if there is only one.
Because a change in government spending is likely to
infl uence output over multiple periods in the future, separate
multipliers could be created for each period. To calculate
the appropriate multiplier, should we look at how much
output changes one quarter in the future? One year? Five
years? There is no universally accepted answer. Some studies
report a collection of multipliers over a specifi c time period
(for example, a multiplier for each quarter up to three years).
Others average these numbers or report a range.
Taking a stand on timing is not suffi cient however. One
must also consider what type of government spending
is increased. Surely an increase in milita.

It notes that simply returning to "business as usual" is no longer an option, as companies must focus on efficiency, flexibility, and risk management. The document also examines expected changes over the next three years by sector and geography, including an emphasis on cost-cutting, international expansion, and increased regulation.

1) The document examines 401(k) contribution rates among older employees (over age 591⁄2) who are eligible for employer matching and can make penalty-free withdrawals.
2) For these employees, contributing less than the employer match threshold represents a dominated strategy that violates no-arbitrage conditions, yet 20-60% do so, foregoing potential gains of up to 6% of annual pay.
3) A field experiment found that employees not taking full advantage of the match were more prone to delaying profitable actions and appeared less financially sophisticated, rather than being deterred by transactions costs or utility satiation. Highlighting foregone matches did not increase contribution rates.

Complexity cannot be reduced; it is a natural phenomenon. Consequently, instead of fighting complexity, organizations should embrace it.
Building on the Be Informed white paper “Embrace complexity, simplify your organization”, this white paper explains how organizations should embrace three important aspects of complexity: dynamic complexity, social complexity and emerging complexity. It also outlines what may happen with organizations that fail to do so. Co-authored by JW Ebbige and F. Buytendijk.

Abstract (summary)
Captive finance companies seem to be in the news more than either banks or independent financeorganizations - and the news has been dramatically negative. Some of the traditional views of captives are highly relevant; however, often they are benchmarked against the wrong index. Comparing common leverage or profitability ratios between a captive and its parent provides negative results in good economic times as well as bad! For instance, average return on assets for a sample of 10 organizations that own captives in a down year - 2008 - was 8.7%. The same measure for finance companies over the past five years has been 1.2%. It is imperative for organizations to work with their parents to develop a common understanding and measurement of the broader strategic value of the captive and to promote that understanding to the larger community of stakeholders. This enhanced system of measures, aligned with the captive's true objectives, is less about performance during any given economic cycle and more about strategic value.
Full Text
In the best of times, strengths and weaknesses of a business model are often overlooked. In the worst of times, as with the recent global recession, weaknesses often come to the forefront. For captive finance companies ("captives") this is the case. Even business models once proven to be effective are being questioned and modified. The changing market landscape is demonstrating a great degree of disparity in the value captives are delivering to their parent organizations.
Historically, parents have measured captive value in ways that promote a stand-alone business division view. Although some of these traditional views of captives are highly relevant, they are often benchmarked against irrelevant indexes. Parents need to pay attention to some key metrics affecting the overall organization; alternative approaches for evaluating success may be appropriate, given the evolution of captives. One of the key aspects of the study Capgemini did for the Foundation is measures of success. This article focuses on traditional measures of success and the relevance of those measures for captives.

Corporate Failures - Causes and Remedies.pptx
The Economic cost of business failure is relatively large, Government, providers of capital, as well as management and employees are severely affected. More critical are the reporting accountants who are likely to face potential litigation if their report failed to provide an early warning signal.
Apart from profit making objective, all corporate business concerns share one fundamental objective which is to remain as going concern.
As businesses strive hard to perpetuate, one of the most significant threats irrespective of their size and nature of operation is illiquidity and insolvency. Extant evidence shows that in past decades business failures have occurred in higher rates than at any time.
The disastrous and social effects of corporate failure makes it imperative for shareholders, creditors, government, etc. to continually monitor the operations of a corporate entity in order to avoid possible failure. The main focus of this presentation is to consider the causes and remedies of corporate failure.

Voter and Voter Turnout
Prepare: Prior to completing this discussion question, review Chapters 10, 11, and 12 in American Government and review Week Five Instructor Guidance. Also read the following articles: How Voter ID Laws Are Being Used to Disenfranchise Minorities and the Poor (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site., Fraught with Fraud (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site., and Proof at the Polls (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site.
Reflect: The U.S. has one of the lowest voter turnout rates among modern democratic political systems. One study ranks the U.S. 120th on a list of 169 nations compared on voter turnout (Pintor, Gratschew, & Sullivan, 2002). During the last decade, many initiatives have been undertaken to increase voter participation, yet concerns about the possibility of election fraud have also increased. Additionally, some political interests feel threatened by the increase in turnout among some traditionally low-turnout ethnic minorities. Several states have recently passed legislation imposing new registration and identification requirements. This has sparked debate about whether these are tactics intended to suppress turnout or to prevent fraud. Think about the media’s role in the election process and how both mass media and social media can impact the election process.
Write: In your initial post, summarize recent developments in several states enacting voter ID laws. Analyze and describe the pros and cons on both sides of the debate about these laws. Is voter fraud a major problem for our democracy or are some groups trying to make it harder for some segments of society to vote? What impact has the media (mass and social) had in influencing public opinion regarding voter ID laws? Draw your own conclusion about the debate over voter ID laws and justify your conclusions with facts and persuasive reasoning. Fully respond to all parts of the prompt and write your response in your own words. Your initial post must be at least 300 words. Support your position with at least two of the assigned resources required for this discussion, and/or peer reviewed scholarly sources obtained through the AU Library databases. Include APA in-text citations (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site. in the body of your post and full citations on the references list (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site. at the end. Support your position with APA citations from two or more of the assigned resources required for this discussion. Please be sure that you demonstrate understanding of these resources, integrate them into your argument, and cite them properly.

In particular, capital formation in the manufacturing sector has declined sharply. This collapse in new investments is the root cause of the economic slowdown, as it reduces job creation, incomes, and consumption over time. The document argues that GDP growth cannot recover without addressing the problems that have caused capital formation to stall, such as high non-performing assets of banks that have restricted new lending.
Corporate turn around strategies by financially distressed
This document summarizes a research study on corporate turnaround strategies used by financially distressed companies listed on the Nairobi Securities Exchange from 2002-2008. The study found that the most common strategy used was employee layoffs (63% of companies), followed by asset restructuring (50% of companies). Debt restructuring and top management changes were the least used strategies. Restructuring strategies were more intensive in the year of distress and less so in subsequent years, presumably to address immediate liquidity issues. The document provides context on definitions of financial distress, factors influencing bankruptcy risk, and previous literature on turnaround strategies.

Rules of Thumb for a Volatile Market
This document provides an overview of the current volatile market environment and outlines 10 rules of thumb for navigating periods of increased volatility. It discusses recent declines in major indexes and rise in market volatility. While the authors' base case sees continued slow economic and earnings growth, they note several signs of uncertainty globally. The 10 rules of thumb focus on identifying companies with organic growth opportunities, flexible finances, strong cash flow, and earnings quality to invest successfully through the market cycle.

ECON 301 Week 5 Discussions
Group 2 US Trade Policy
Summary
For our group project we have decided to research, analyze, and formulate an argument on the World Trade Organization (WTO) in regards to the US Trade Policy. In our paper we have discussed what WTO stands for and the goal of this organization. We have also addressed the latest form of trade negotiations among the WTO membership – Doha Development Round and the controversial topics of protectionism and free trade. Among the research we have performed, we as a group have come to a conclusion that we support this organization. Although there are incomplete developments that still need to be addressed, we continue to support this organization because of the fact that numerous nations come together in order to reform these conflicts.
Questions:
1. What makes free trade a better option than protectionism for the economic situation in the US?
2. What consequences would the WTO face if they acted unethically given their power?
Group 3 US Fiscal Policy
Fiscal Policy refers to the practice of monitoring spending levels and tax rates to try and influence our economy. Before the Great Depression, which started in the late twenties, our government had a hands off approach to the economy or a laissez-faire approach. After the Second World War it was deemed necessary for the government to become involved in our economy. (Heakal, Reem) They decided this would be necessary in order to attempt to influence unemployment, the business cycle and inflation. Of course there are many different ideas on the best approach and way to accomplish this.
The government takes initiative in trying to regulate unemployment, unemployment benefits, and taxation. They do this through the use of what is known as automatic stabilizers, which are programs and policies meant to balance fluctuations in the economy. During a recession, automatic stabilizers are expanded, and during an economic boom, the automatic stabilizers are reduced. An example of this would be unemployment benefits (David Weil). When there is a recession and unemployment is high, the government spends more money on unemployment benefits, whereas when the unemployment is low, the government spends less money on unemployment benefits. According to William J. Carrington, an analyst of the Congressional budget office, some of the fiscal policies used to reduce unemployment include household assistance (reducing employees’ taxes, increased unemployment insurance expenditures, and more refundable tax), business assistance, and financial aid to the states. Carrington also shows that to reduce unemployment, unemployment benefit policies must be modified such as an extension to the duration of benefits, reemployment bonuses, and offering wage insurance. Fiscal Policy can also be used to influence new ideas like those in alternative energies.
The United States government often tries to finds ways to stimulate the economy while looking towards its future. T ...

risk and return.pptx
This document discusses risk and return from an investment perspective. It defines risk as the probability of getting a return less than expected, which can arise from unexpected changes in dividends, interest rates or stock prices. Risk is categorized as either systematic, stemming from broader economic and market forces outside an investor's control, or unsystematic, which is specific to a particular company. Systematic risk includes market risk, interest rate risk and purchasing power risk. Unsystematic risk includes business risk, related to company-specific operations, and financial risk, regarding a company's capital structure. Standard deviation is presented as a quantitative measure of risk, assessing the dispersion of returns around the expected mean return.
AnsAns I am going to focus my remarks today on what is popularly.pdf
Ans:
Ans: I am going to focus my remarks today on what is popularly known as the “too big to fail”
(TBTF) problem. In particular, should society tolerate a financial system in which certain
financial institutions are deemed to be too big to fail? And, if not, then what should we do about
it?
The answer to the first question is clearly “no.” We cannot tolerate a financial system in which
some firms are too big to fail—at least not ones that operate in any form other than that of a very
tightly regulated utility.
The second question is the more interesting one. Is the current approach of the official sector to
ending TBTF the right one? I’d characterize this approach as reducing the incentives for firms to
operate with a large systemic footprint, reducing the likelihood of them failing, and lowering the
cost to society when they do fail. Or would it be better to take the more direct, but less nuanced
approach advocated by some and simply break up the most systemically important firms into
smaller or simpler pieces in the hope that what emerges is no longer systemic and too big to fail?
What Is the Too-Big-to-Fail Problem?
The root cause of “too big to fail’ is the fact that in our financial system as it exists today, the
failure of large complex financial firms generate large, undesirable externalities. These include
disruption of the stability of the financial system and its ability to provide credit and other
essential financial services to households and businesses. When this happens, not only is the
financial sector disrupted, but its troubles cascade over into the real economy.
There are negative externalities associated with the failure of any financial firm, but these are
disproportionately high in the case of large, complex and interconnected firms. Although the
moniker is “too big to fail,” the magnitude of these externalities does not depend simply on size.
The size of the externalities also depends on the particular mix of business activities and the
degree of interconnectedness with the rest of the financial industry. One important element is the
importance of the services the firm provides to the broader financial system and the economy
and the ease with which customers can move their business to other providers. Another is the
extent to which the firm’s structure and activities create the potential for contagion—that is,
direct losses for counterparties, fire sales of assets held by other leveraged financial institutions,
or loss of confidence that might precipitate runs on other firms with similar business models.
The presence of large negative externalities creates a dilemma for policymakers when such firms
are in danger of failing, particularly if the wider financial system is also under stress at the same
moment. At that point in time, the expected costs to society of failure are very large compared to
the short-run costs from providing the extraordinary liquidity support, capital or other emergency
assistance necessary to pre.

ECONOMIC COMMENTARY Number 2014-09May 8, 2014
Why Do Economists Still Disagree over
Government Spending Multipliers?
Daniel Carroll
Public debate about the effects of government spending heated up after record-large stimulus packages were enacted
to address the fallout of the fi nancial crisis. Almost as noticeable as the discord was the absence of consensus among
prominent economists on the issue. While it seems a simple problem to estimate the effect of government spending on
output—the size of the government multiplier—it is anything but.
ISSN 0428-1276
Over the past several years, attention has focused on the
dangers of medium- and long-run imbalances in government
budgets. This was less the case at the beginning of the
recent fi nancial crisis, when the question was if and how the
government should try to stimulate the economy. But before
long, the debate surfaced. Some argued that the government
should prop up falling private demand with increased
spending. Others claimed that increased government
spending would have little to no stimulative effect in the
short run and that it might even be contractionary.
Economists could offer little in the way of clarifi cation, with
venerated scholars falling on both sides of the debate. This
failure of economists to agree on the issue leads some in
the public to suppose that economists are incompetent, or
perhaps worse, politically motivated.
The truth is that economists have struggled to answer
the question, “What effect does an increase in government
spending today have on output in the future?” In economics,
this effect is called the government spending multiplier,
and unfortunately for those of us who would like certainty
on the matter, there are major challenges associated with
measuring it. An appreciation for these challenges should
explain why competent scholars can hold widely different
opinions about the effect of government spending on output.
Measurement Challenges
Problems with measuring the government spending
multiplier begin at the outset—with the way the question
itself is phrased. At fi rst, it seems like a natural question,
but in fact it is far too general.
For starters, it is presumptuous to speak of “the”
government spending multiplier as if there is only one.
Because a change in government spending is likely to
infl uence output over multiple periods in the future, separate
multipliers could be created for each period. To calculate
the appropriate multiplier, should we look at how much
output changes one quarter in the future? One year? Five
years? There is no universally accepted answer. Some studies
report a collection of multipliers over a specifi c time period
(for example, a multiplier for each quarter up to three years).
Others average these numbers or report a range.
Taking a stand on timing is not suffi cient however. One
must also consider what type of government spending
is increased. Surely an increase in milita.
Greek Industries Embracing Growth in The New Normal (13/10/2010)
The document discusses how businesses need to adapt to a "new normal" post-financial crisis. It notes that simply returning to "business as usual" is no longer an option, as companies must focus on efficiency, flexibility, and risk management. The document also examines expected changes over the next three years by sector and geography, including an emphasis on cost-cutting, international expansion, and increased regulation.

1) The document examines 401(k) contribution rates among older employees (over age 591⁄2) who are eligible for employer matching and can make penalty-free withdrawals.
2) For these employees, contributing less than the employer match threshold represents a dominated strategy that violates no-arbitrage conditions, yet 20-60% do so, foregoing potential gains of up to 6% of annual pay.
3) A field experiment found that employees not taking full advantage of the match were more prone to delaying profitable actions and appeared less financially sophisticated, rather than being deterred by transactions costs or utility satiation. Highlighting foregone matches did not increase contribution rates.

Mastering disruption, embracing complexity
Complexity cannot be reduced; it is a natural phenomenon. Consequently, instead of fighting complexity, organizations should embrace it.
Building on the Be Informed white paper “Embrace complexity, simplify your organization”, this white paper explains how organizations should embrace three important aspects of complexity: dynamic complexity, social complexity and emerging complexity. It also outlines what may happen with organizations that fail to do so. Co-authored by JW Ebbige and F. Buytendijk.

Abstract (summary)
Captive finance companies seem to be in the news more than either banks or independent financeorganizations - and the news has been dramatically negative. Some of the traditional views of captives are highly relevant; however, often they are benchmarked against the wrong index. Comparing common leverage or profitability ratios between a captive and its parent provides negative results in good economic times as well as bad! For instance, average return on assets for a sample of 10 organizations that own captives in a down year - 2008 - was 8.7%. The same measure for finance companies over the past five years has been 1.2%. It is imperative for organizations to work with their parents to develop a common understanding and measurement of the broader strategic value of the captive and to promote that understanding to the larger community of stakeholders. This enhanced system of measures, aligned with the captive's true objectives, is less about performance during any given economic cycle and more about strategic value.
Full Text
In the best of times, strengths and weaknesses of a business model are often overlooked. In the worst of times, as with the recent global recession, weaknesses often come to the forefront. For captive finance companies ("captives") this is the case. Even business models once proven to be effective are being questioned and modified. The changing market landscape is demonstrating a great degree of disparity in the value captives are delivering to their parent organizations.
Historically, parents have measured captive value in ways that promote a stand-alone business division view. Although some of these traditional views of captives are highly relevant, they are often benchmarked against irrelevant indexes. Parents need to pay attention to some key metrics affecting the overall organization; alternative approaches for evaluating success may be appropriate, given the evolution of captives. One of the key aspects of the study Capgemini did for the Foundation is measures of success. This article focuses on traditional measures of success and the relevance of those measures for captives.

Corporate Failures - Causes and Remedies.pptx
The Economic cost of business failure is relatively large, Government, providers of capital, as well as management and employees are severely affected. More critical are the reporting accountants who are likely to face potential litigation if their report failed to provide an early warning signal.
Apart from profit making objective, all corporate business concerns share one fundamental objective which is to remain as going concern.
As businesses strive hard to perpetuate, one of the most significant threats irrespective of their size and nature of operation is illiquidity and insolvency. Extant evidence shows that in past decades business failures have occurred in higher rates than at any time.
The disastrous and social effects of corporate failure makes it imperative for shareholders, creditors, government, etc. to continually monitor the operations of a corporate entity in order to avoid possible failure. The main focus of this presentation is to consider the causes and remedies of corporate failure.

Voter and Voter Turnout
Prepare: Prior to completing this discussion question, review Chapters 10, 11, and 12 in American Government and review Week Five Instructor Guidance. Also read the following articles: How Voter ID Laws Are Being Used to Disenfranchise Minorities and the Poor (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site., Fraught with Fraud (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site., and Proof at the Polls (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site.
Reflect: The U.S. has one of the lowest voter turnout rates among modern democratic political systems. One study ranks the U.S. 120th on a list of 169 nations compared on voter turnout (Pintor, Gratschew, & Sullivan, 2002). During the last decade, many initiatives have been undertaken to increase voter participation, yet concerns about the possibility of election fraud have also increased. Additionally, some political interests feel threatened by the increase in turnout among some traditionally low-turnout ethnic minorities. Several states have recently passed legislation imposing new registration and identification requirements. This has sparked debate about whether these are tactics intended to suppress turnout or to prevent fraud. Think about the media’s role in the election process and how both mass media and social media can impact the election process.
Write: In your initial post, summarize recent developments in several states enacting voter ID laws. Analyze and describe the pros and cons on both sides of the debate about these laws. Is voter fraud a major problem for our democracy or are some groups trying to make it harder for some segments of society to vote? What impact has the media (mass and social) had in influencing public opinion regarding voter ID laws? Draw your own conclusion about the debate over voter ID laws and justify your conclusions with facts and persuasive reasoning. Fully respond to all parts of the prompt and write your response in your own words. Your initial post must be at least 300 words. Support your position with at least two of the assigned resources required for this discussion, and/or peer reviewed scholarly sources obtained through the AU Library databases. Include APA in-text citations (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site. in the body of your post and full citations on the references list (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site. at the end. Support your position with APA citations from two or more of the assigned resources required for this discussion. Please be sure that you demonstrate understanding of these resources, integrate them into your argument, and cite them properly.

Ok. This school makes me confused. The summary of this week they posted like this:
SUMMARY:
This week introduced you to grand theories and middle-range theories that serve to articulate the voice of nursing within healthcare.
Here are the key points covered:
Grand theories are comparatively more abstract than middle-range theories since they are at a higher level of abstraction. Compared to grand theories, middle-range theories are made up of limited number of concepts that lend themselves to empirical testing. All theories help to explain human health behavior.
· Sister Callista Royï's adaptive model theory is built on the conceptual foundation of adaptation. It identifies the positive role that nursing plays in the promotion and enhancement of client adaptation to environments that facilitate the healing process.
· Leiningerï's culture care theory is pertinent in the current multicultural healthcare environment where nurses are exposed to diverse cultures.
· Penderï's health promotion and disease prevention theory can be called as a "direction setting exercise" for nursing professionals. It believes in fostering the spirit of health promotion and disease and risk reduction.
From the chapter, Models and Theories Focused on Nursing Goals and Functions, read the following:The Health Promotion Model: Nola J. Pender
From the chapter, Models and Theories Focused on a Systems Approach, read the following:
The Roy Adaptation Model
From the chapter, Models and Theories Focused on Culture, read the following:
Leininger's Cultural Care Diversity and Universality Theory and Model
SO, THAT IS WHY I ASSUMED THAT HAS TO BE ONE OF THEM (Pender, Roy Adaptaion or Leininger)

Models and Theories Focused on Nursing Goals and Functions
The Health Promotion Model: Nola J. Pender
Background
Nola J. Pender was born in 1941 in Lansing, Michigan. She graduated in 1962 with a diploma in nursing. In 1964, Pender completed a bachelor’s of science in nursing at Michigan State University. By 1969, she had completed a doctor of philosophy in psychology and education. During this time in her career, Pender began looking at health and nursing in a broad way, including defining the goal of nursing care as optimal health.
In 1975, Pender published a model for preventive health behavior; her health promotion model first appeared in the first edition of the text Health Promotion in Nursing Practice in 1982. Pender’s health promotion model has its foundation in Albert Bandura’s (1977) social learning theory (which postulates that cognitive processes affect behavior change) and is influenced by Fishbein’s (1967) theory of reasoned action (which asserts that personal attitudes and social norms affect behavior).
Pender’s Health Promotion Model
McCullagh (2009) labeled Pender’s health promotion model as a middle-range integrative theory, and rightly so. Fawcett (2005) decisively presented the differenc.

Business Plan
• Provides a more specific and detailed
exploration of the venture’s goals and operations
with a clear path on how the venture will
succeed.
• A written document that details the proposed
venture:
• Describes the current status, expected needs, and
projected results of the new business.
• Demonstrates a clear picture of what the venture is,
where it is projected to go, and how the entrepreneur
proposes it will get there.

Benefits of a Business Plan (slide 1 of 2)
• For the Entrepreneur:
• Time, effort, research, and discipline to create a
formal plan forces the entrepreneur to view the
venture critically and objectively.
• Competitive, economic, and financial analyses
subject the venture to close scrutiny.
• For Outside Evaluators:
• Develops and examines operating strategies and
expected results.
• Provides a tool for use in communications with
outside financial sources.

Benefits of a Business Plan (slide 2 of 2)
• Specifically for the Financial Sources:
• Details the market potential and plans for securing a
share of that market.
• Shows the venture’s ability to service debt
or provide an adequate return on equity.
• Identifies critical risks and crucial events with
a discussion of contingency plans.
• Contains the necessary information for a thorough
business and financial evaluation.
• Assesses the entrepreneur’s managerial ability.

Developing a Well-Conceived Business Plan
• The Five-Minute Reading:
1. Determine the characteristics of the venture and its industry.
2. Determine the financial structure of the plan (amount of debt or
equity investment required).
3. Read the latest balance sheet (to determine liquidity, net worth,
and debt/equity).
4. Determine the quality of entrepreneurs in the venture
(sometimes the most important step).
5. Establish the unique feature in this venture (find out what is
different).
6. Read the entire plan lightly (this is when the entire package is
paged through for a casual look at graphs, charts, exhibits, and
other plan components).

Queers Are Like Jews, Aren't They? Analogy
and Alliance Politics
JANET R. JAKOBSEN
Queers are like Jews. Aren't they?
What does it mean to pose the Jewish question in relation to queer theo-
ry? Is there any one Jewish question? And does not the Jewish question also
pose the question of queer theory itself? What is the relationship berween
"Jewish" and "queee'? Does queer, after all, refer to the identity of those with
whom it is most commonly associated in the current milieu: homosexuals and
other sexual dissidents? Or does queer mean something, well, "different" than
that, different than a catch-all ca\egory with reference to sexuality? And if
queer refers to something else-to~ for example, that which is other, different,
odd, queer-what is its relation to the specific difference (queerness?)' of Jew-
ish? One can certainly imagine instances in which it would be quite queer to
be Jewish. But, if we simply take up the concept in this manner-that Jews
are the queers of this or that setting-does not all difference get colonized
into "queer"? And, doesn't the specter of sexual identity continue to haunt the
word queer, leaving sexuality as the fundamental difference? What if Jewish is
taken to mean something more than a specific difference? What of the impli-
cations of Jewishness beyond Jewish d.

Third Paper Assignment
Due Tuesday, December 13th
The third paper will be based on a book in the list at the end of the syllabus. These works are generally works of literature, with some concerned with philosophy or politics. The student’s task will be to show how the chosen work reflects or shows the influence of conditions and events in Europe that were operating at the time of the writing of the work. This is not a book report. I am not interested in plots or descriptions of the general argument of a given work. Instead, I am looking for an analysis of specific sections of the chosen work that may illuminate social and economic attitudes or contemporaneous conditions.
The paper should be 7-8 pages long.
You will be expected to give a 5-10 minute oral report based on your finding in the third paper. This oral report will be a significant part of your class participation grade.

A SOCIAL CAPITAL THEORY OF CAREER SUCCESS
SCOTT E. SEIBERT
MARIA L. KRAIMER
•̂ ' ' ' Cleveland State University
ROBERT C. LIDEN
University of Illinois at Chicago
A model integrating competing theories of social capital with research on career
success was developed and tested in a sample of 448 employees with various occupa-
tions and organizations. Social capital was conceptualized in terms of network struc-
ture and social resources. Results of structural equation modeling showed that net-
work structure was related to social resources and that the effects of social resources
on career success were hilly mediated by three network benelits: access to information,
access to resources, and career sponsorship.
Organizational researchers have begun to de-
velop increasingly comprehensive models of career
success using demographic, human capital, work-
family, motivational, organizational, and industry
variables (e.g., Dreher & Ash, 1990; Judge & Bretz,
1994: Judge, Cable. Boudreau, & Bretz. 1995; Kirch-
meyer, 1998). Although this work has provided
considerable evidence regarding the determinants
of career outcomes, the roles of informal interper-
sonal behaviors have not been fully explored (Judge
& Bretz, 1994; Pfeffer, 1989). Popular advice for
getting ahead in one's career rarely fails to mention
the importance of networking for the achievement
of career goals (e.g., Bolles, 1992; Kanter, 1977).
Indeed, Luthans, Hodgetts, and Rosenkrantz (1988)
found that the most successful managers in their
study spent 70 percent more time engaged in net-
working activities and 10 percent more time en-
gaged in routine communication activities than
their less successful counterparts. Recent advances
in social capital theory (Coleman, 1990) have begun
to provide a finer-grained analysis of the ways in-
dividuals' social networks affect their careers in
organizations (Burt, 1992, 1997; Ibarra, 1995;
Podolny & Baron, 1997; Sparrowe & Popielarz,
1995). This theoretical perspective has the poten-

`Inclusiveness. The main.docx
`
Inclusiveness. The main difference that can distinguish a happy employee from disgruntled employee. As with all decisions that are made, there is always an audience that the decision will affect. When employees are privy and organizational decisions are inclusive to employees this can greatly increase their level of fulfillment. Whether or not the end user of the decision will be content with the outcome or not, there will always be critics. Which leads us to discuss key characteristics and the importance of involving employees in relative organizational decision making.
It is not uncommon to find that during strategic organizational planning that top-level management will include their employees to engage and provide their input on complex processes. Human capital, whether the organization is large or small, corporate ran or small business managed is key to an organization’s success. Employee satisfaction level drives productivity and is what increases revenue for the company. Happy employees equal happy customers.
What does it take to keep employees motivated? A critical and important element for employers to keep their employees happy and content is clear communication. It is critical that an organization’s objective and vision for future growth is communicated clearly throughout all levels. Top-level management must be skilled at delivering the company’s mission and values to every tier within their organization. Each tier within the organization with healthy communication should be able to open-mindedly accept the message and freely provide any feedback positive or negative without fear of repercussion. Keeping an open line of communication within an organization is key to building the foundation for success.
As we move away from the golden days of traditional office operations consisting of fax machines, telephones, paper, pencils, etc. and move towards a more technologically repertoire, we lose the personable face to face interaction with one another. We spend most of the day behind our computer screen at our desk. The need to sustain job satisfaction amongst employees could not be ever more present than now. To maintain the morale amongst employees, organizations should be able to keep them challenged and motivated. Take technology for example. If the increase of new technology isn’t daunting enough, consider the challenge to remain current with technology all the while maintaining a competitive advantage in the industry? Reach internally to our internal resource, human capital. Employees must be given the opportunity to share their knowledge, skills, and abilities. When empowered to provide input concerning highly visible organizational decisions, employee morale is boosted. Not only is this beneficial for employees but also the employer as they receive ideas and input that could possibly lead to the solution. Employee engagement boosts the overall welfare of the organization.

Sujan Poster/Poster Abstract - Aspiration pneumonia (1).docx
Title: Aspiration pneumonia: Best practice to avoid complications
Background
Aspiration pneumonia is a lung infection due to inhaled contents; this is a relevant topic because aspiration pneumonia is prevalent and accounts for up to 15% of all pneumonia cases and is particularly common in older people, and thus it is important for nurses to be aware of how to manage the condition particularly as the population is ageing so this will be of more concern (Kwong, Howden & Charles 2011).
Target Audience
The target audience for this presentation is experienced Registered Nurses and thus the presentation has been designed for this group.
Main Findings
Aspiration pneumonia is an infection within the lungs that occurs after a person aspirates either liquid, vomit or food into the larynx and lower respiratory tract; this can occur when an individual inhales their gastric or oral contents. Patients at risk include individuals who are elderly or those who have a marked disturbance of consciousness such as that resulting from a drug overdose, seizures, a massive cerebrospinal accident, dysphagia or dysphasia (Kwong, Howden & Charles 2011). Aspiration pneumonia can quickly develop into respiratory failure, abscess and empyema and this requires supportive care, which is the main form of therapy, however prophylactic antimicrobial therapy is also often prescribed (Joundi, Wong & Leis 2015). Best practice suggests suctioning, supplemental oxygen to keep O2 above 90%, septic shock therapy, management of hypotension and antibiotic therapy for 7-10 days. Sputum cultures should be taken so that antibiotics can be tailored appropriately (McAdams-Jones & Sundar 2012).
Implications for Practice
These findings are important for registered nurses to be aware of so that aspiration pneumonia can be managed appropriately and complications can be avoided, which could cause increased hospital stay and costs. Nurses need to be aware of the best practice recommendations such as oxygen supplementation, sit up while eating, provide thickened foods and drinks, dental care and about taking sputum cultures when managing aspiration pneumonia so that treatment can be tailored appropriately and recovery can occur quickly.
Feedback from marker (Teacher)
Thank you for your abstract.
You have just managed a pass grade, your work is very basic and you will need to engage with the basic practice literature to ensure you have a comprehensive understanding of this topic in your poster.
I am also unclear on your focus, is this about prevention of aspiration or management once it has occurred or both?
Kind regards Andrea

[removed]Running Head WEEK 4 .docx
- 1. [removed] Running Head: WEEK 4 1 6 Week 4 Milestone 2 Kristopher Warren Regent University Professor Bajah ECON 230 Macroeconomics 19 September 2022 How do inflation, unemployment, aggregate demand, and supply in the company’s key market (country) affect the company’s profitability? The relationship between inflation and unemployment was generally inversely proportional. Nonetheless, this relationship has been surprisingly skewed from the start, breaking up over various events over the past few years. Inflation and labor force (and unemployment) are perhaps the most tightly controlled financial indicators. So let us look at these relationships and what they mean for the broader economy. Inflation is the term used to describe the loss of control over money purchases over time. Thus, one cash unit is under-bought before the inflationary strain hits the economy. Economic analysts avoid
- 2. unemployment when the number of working unemployed people exceeds the occupational stock of the labor force. Inflation and unemployment were generally inversely related. Government executive bodies rely on monetary and monetary strategies to keep the economy from overwhelming or pushing them back. The Phillips inflection shows that inflation and unemployment generally have an inverse relationship. Low unemployment is usually associated with an economic expansion, and high unemployment can lead to a decline or even collapse. Inflation fluctuates in the short term, with higher rates of expansion usually occurring during periods of prosperity or immediately following prosperity periods. For example, the most significant spurt of US economic expansion in the 20th century followed World War II and its wartime explosion. After that, the economy expanded again and fell sharply during the recession (McCausland, Summerfield, & Theodossiou, 2020). Expanded valuing for labor and products, including work, materials, and energy, can result from inflationary tension. Organizations will see an expansion in benefits if they can give these increasing costs to clients as higher costs for labor and products. Incomes from expansion are limited at a more special rate than benefits from day-to-day corporate tasks. This way, expansion not just misleads work, result, and speculation; it additionally puts these exercises over the long haul down. The connection among organic markets affects the net revenues of organizations with stock. Oversupply, as well as low interest, will bring about high stock costs for the business. At the same time, undersupply yet rather popularity would bring about the organization now and again running out of items and disturbing clients. Discuss the five transmission mechanisms (intertemporal substitution, uncertainty, irreversible investments, labor adjustment costs, time bunching, and network effects and collateral damage) of the key market (country) and how it affects the company's profitability. The transmission System is the power that animates the
- 3. economy in all country areas. Five transmission component 1. Intertemporal Substitution It manages the allotment of the work season among recreation and works to amplify prosperity. When the laborer decides to consume recreation over work, then, at that point, the general result created by the firm lessens. If the economy is confronting a shock, this circumstance further invigorates on the off chance that the specialist or business picks recreation overworking. 2. Uncertainty and irreversible investment Vulnerability lessens the exhibition of the organization or firms. There are a few irreversible speculations; for example, financial backers will not be motivated to put resources into an economy that faces vulnerability. In a dubious economy, the profit from the venture will likewise be questionable because of more significant changes in financing costs (Martins, Pires- Alves, Modenesi, & Modenesi, 2017). 3. Labor adjustment cost Work change cost is the expense that the organizations cause for moving the representatives from low areas to exceptionally developing areas; This would be undeniably challenging for the firm assuming the economy is confronting the shocks. On the off chance that this cost is higher, the firm enrolling cost will increment, and the benefit of the firm will diminish. 4. Time Bunching The monetary exercises are to be composed at a specific time given the economic business cycles. When there is a blast in the economy, the organizations will rise, and benefits will rise; the inverse happens when there is a downturn in the economy. Subsequently, the benefits are impacted when given the business cycle. 5. Network effects and collateral damage This is an effect because of changes in the worth of the resources. At the point when the worth of a resource that is vowed for credit (i.e., Security) lessens because of a few financial changes in the economy, then this will cause blow-
- 4. back and diminishes the productivity of the economy; This happens because of a decrease in the worth of the guarantee, the loaning limit diminishes, and future credit accessibility lessens, and this will decrease the venture, which like this reduces the benefit to the economy (OnurPolat & IbrahimOzkan, 2019) References Martins, N.
