Economic growth is simply the percentage change (increase or decrease) in the real GDP (gross domestic product) (Ahmad, 2013). "The economy of the United States is among the top largest economies in the world though it is facing stiff competition from other economies such as China," (Orhangazi, 2008). An analysis of the US economy reveals that it requires an aggressive growth plan which requires investment in equipment and facilities, increase in labor and productivity over the half decade. 2.0 History of Economic Changes and comparing it to Forecast for the next Five Years 2.1 Changes in GDP GDP is the total market value of goods and services produced within an economy over a specified period (COLEMAN, 2008).

...Negative Economic Impact of the Patient Protection and Accountable Care Act The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA) also referred to as ObamaCare, federal healthcare law, Affordable Care Act, or ACA, is a United States federal Statute signed into law on March 23, 2010, by President Barack Obama. In combination with the Healthcare and Education Reconciliation Act, it represents the most significant regulatory overhaul of the U.S. healthcare system since the passage of Medicare and Medicaid in 1965 (Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act). The PPACA is intended to increase the number of health insured Americans and reduce the overall costs of healthcare. The PPACA will revamp the current health insurance system by extending health insurance coverage to nearly 32 million currently uninsured Americans; 18 million through Medicaid expansion to individuals with incomes under the 133 percent federal poverty line (FPL), and 18 million through government exchange subsidies to individuals with incomes up to 400 percent of the FPL. Citizens and legal residents in families with income between 100 and 400 percent of poverty who purchase coverage through a health insurance exchange are eligible for a tax credit to reduce the cost of coverage. To subsidize the additional 32 million individuals covered, the new law introduces 18 new taxes and penalties on individuals, employers, and businesses (Campbell). Though the PPACAs intent is to lower healthcare costs, it will...

...Introduction The Lyons Document Storage Corporation was a family business established in 1993. It faced up to a recession due to the growth of its competitors in 1990s. Thus, the company started to issue bonds on July 2nd 1999 to fund its growth. However, currently, in year 2008, the company is considering issuing a new bond to replace the old bond and the purpose of this case is to analyze both the old and new bonds as well as their impacts to the company. Also, the choice would be made between those two bonds under a certain market interest rate. Part I: Analysis of the old bond Currently, Lyons Document Storage Corporation is suffering a long term debt which includes the bond being issued on July 2, 1999 and would be due on July 2, 2019. Interest is payable semiannually on January 2 and July 2 but the company only received 9.1M in cash with regard to the bond face value of 10million. When a bond is issued, the difference between the amount of money the borrower actually received and the face value of the bond is called either the “premium” or “discount”. Premium bonds are the bonds sold at a price higher than the bonds face value while the discounted bounds are referring to the amount received less than the face amount. The bond would be sold at a premium if the current market rate of interest is less than the coupon offered. If the yield rate is greater than the bond rate, a discounted bond would be issued. Thus, the discount of the bond for the company would be 10M-9...

...Becoming a Physician: Good Idea or Not? By Marcus Gulley Economics 545 Aug. 1st, 2015 My niece, Jenny wants to know if becoming a doctor in the near future is something worth considering. On the surface becoming a physician was always a great and lucrative job, but is that still the case? The numbers from this particular article would say that might not be the case as physicians aren’t moving around as they once did. The people in the profession are scared to death so they are sticking with the stability in staying put other than moving around for greener pastures. Although job stability is a good thing to have, in the medical field is built for people to move around because it creates new jobs for the new doctors coming up. So there is a dilemma with becoming a doctor these days because the doctors are not moving and they are not in a rush to retire which is also blocking up and coming doctors. Considering the debt that is accrued during the time it takes to become a doctor and the amount of time it takes to become a doctor (10-14 years), not being able to find a job is very discouraging. With all that going on I’m going to show her that if she has a passion for this profession then she should definitely go for it. Demand Study results are suggesting that demand is growing a lot faster than supply. Demand for physicians continues to grow faster than supply, leading to a projected shortfall of between 46,100 and 90,400 physicians by 2025. Although physician...

...Hawaiian Air Case Preliminary Questions: Assessing Hawaiian Airlines’ Business 1. Factors to use to think about buying HA’s stock: Customers – 2014 marked the first year that Hawaiian carried more than 10 million guests in a single year which is 80% higher than 10 years ago. The most emerging tourism market for the airline is China which is the reason that the airline added a triweekly service from Beijing to the islands. Although this market seemed to be booming at the end of 2014, the decrease of economic growth in the country recently could hurt the tourism market from China. The customers of Hawaiian are not all identical which makes it critical that the airline’s business is not dependent upon a single or few customers and the loss of any one customer would not have a huge effect on Hawaiian’s business. Cost Structure – The greatest and most important cost for Hawaiian is the cost of airline fuel. Operations are significantly affected by the availability and price of jet fuel. The lower the fuel, the better for the airline as it is more cost effective, however, because of the binding hedging contracts that the company has to protect itself against low fuel prices, costs will not be cut as much as assumed. Recently, the appreciation of the US dollar, and extremely low oil prices (fuel prices) have cut costs for Hawaiian and other airlines nationwide, and in 2014 Hawaiian consumed more gallons of fuel than in 2013 or 2012 and still maintained lower fuel costs in both...

...within a human resources strategy to ensure that an organization has the workforce to meet the challenges of today and to build for the challenges of tomorrow. Changing demographics and increased competition for qualified employees makes workforce planning critically important to the future of any organization. The development of a workforce plan requires an analysis of the companies positions; a review of present workforce competencies; an identification of skill requirements needed in the future; a comparison of present workforce needs to identify gaps and surpluses; strategic plans for building the workforce needed in the future; review and an evaluation process. It enables an organization to adjust and respond quickly to immediate and future changes to its business requirements. In its simplest terms, workforce planning is the process of ensuring the “right people are in the right place at the right time” to accomplish the mission and goals of the organization. The objective of this five (5) year workforce analysis is to determine the sample company's (ASC) present and future human capital needs, in order to achieve its strategic business goals set out below.
