...------------------------------------------------- Ethics and the Legal Environment: Theories and Moral Development Final Project Part 1 Angalee Payne Ethics and the Legal Environment Angalee Payne Ethics and the Legal Environment As a member of the Energy Cooperative we holds luncheons and public conferences at partner locations throughout the US and couple of cities abroad. United through the web, the Energy Cooperative has 400,000 members worldwide who pay yearly dues to the cooperative. Portion of our dues get sent home for upkeep of the website. All of us members vote on proposals at hand, whether it would be policy changes, purchases over $100, and other matters that affect the cooperative. We meet by conference calls once a month. We are self-employed consultants that have no allegiance to a particular company and must sign an agreement to that affect. The question at hand is can one of the directors call their personal potential clients and state, “I am calling as a director of the Energy Cooperative.” Should we allow the directors state such a thing when calling their clients? Does this affect the Energy Cooperative? What is the best solution? We are going to look over the 5 theories to see if this would be ethical or unethical. We are going to look at the ethical issues that would allow or prevent the Energy Cooperative from doing so. First I will examine John Locke’s Theory of Rights.

...Terry Knight GE273 Project Part I In today’s economy consumers are more careful with their purchases. With unemployment and cost of just about everything up and people’s incomes the only thing that isn’t increasing its quite understandable as to why they are. Consumers are not going to spend frivolously on items they don’t need or are considered luxuries. On the other hand though they will purchase items that are what they may consider necessities. Let’s look at the items put before us here. Barns and Noble books have an estimated price elasticity of -4.00. I would consider this price to be elastic because books from Barns and Noble are mostly purchased for entertainment and pleasure. With today’s technology and books being available in so many different formats, such as audio books, the internet, kindles and electronic pads just to mention a few, Barns and Noble need a little elasticity in their price. Books now have many substitutes rather than just being in print and bound by two covers. The next item for review is Coca-Cola. Coke has an estimated price elasticity of -1.22 and I would consider this price to be elastic. Coke is price elastic, not because it’s a luxury or people derive pleasure from consuming it, but because there are so many substitutes out on the market. Good competition in a free market place can help keep prices low. Now let’s look at cigarettes and beer which have an estimated price elasticity of -.25 and -.23 respectfully. These items I would consider...

Moore Kaplan University GM505 Action Research and Consulting Skills Dr. Heidi Gregory-Mina, MBA, MS August 26, 2014 Part One Final Project This project takes a look at implementing a new software application process for the Georgia Department of Transportation (GDOT) Outdoor Advertising Office (ODA), the stakeholders that will be affected by the new software, its expectations, the data methods that will be used, and the ground work involved. This software program is definitely needed and I believe that all parties involved will be pleased with its results. Scope and Purpose Georgia Department of Transportation Outdoor Advertising (ODA) is a department that allows companies to build billboard structures along the State of Georgia’s Right of Way. The application process is a two-part tedious process that includes a 7-page application for a Sign Permit and a 16-page application for a Vegetation Permit. Both applications require several other pages of documentation as well. Currently the process is based on a lot of paper pushing and the department would like to make it web accessible allowing applications to be uploaded on line for review including the capability for applicants to make all payments online also. Currently everything is submitted via the mail or walked into our office. Making the application web based will not only save the organization time and excessive amounts of paper but it will do the same for...

Overview The purpose of the Final Project Research Paper is to examine capital-structure theory, issues, and debates, while showing how capital-structure choices affect a firm’s return on investment (ROI) and its risk profile. Directions Your Assignment is to select a publicly-held company and to analyze its capital structure, applying the theories and principles found in Chapter 15 of the text. The structure of your research paper should include: • A preview of capital structure issues • Business and financial risks related to capital structure • Modigliani and Miller’s [MM] capital-structure theory • Criticisms of the MM model and assumptions • Capital structure evidence and implications • Estimating the firm’s optimal capital structure A firm’s optimal capital-structure is that mix of debt and equity that maximizes the stock price. At any point in time, management has a specific target capital structure in mind, presumably the optimal one, though this target may change over time. For example, financial management may choose a 50% equity financing [stock] and 50% debt [bond] financing. Several factors influence a firms’ capital structure, including: • Business risk • Tax position • The need for financial flexibility • Managerial...
