...Case Study: Chapter 8 Aaron Lambert Saint Leo MBA 540 Managerial Economics Analyzing Managerial Decisions: Leaving New York for the Farmlands of Illinois While the co-workers may be rightly supportive of the individual’s aspirations, they are likely not qualified to advise him on this matter. The individual claims to have $800,000.00 saved from bonuses at his current place of employment. Based on that information alone, it appears that he is considering walking away from what seems like a fairly secure and profitable situation at his current job and committing to a new and less certain endeavor. With reports implying that demand for corn will soar the farming proposition may seem like a good idea; however, our potential farmer needs to consider other factors. The costs associated with acquiring the land are known and estimated to be $800,000.00, but there are other costs involved that are considerable and quite fixed. He will need to purchase farming equipment and machinery, which will require much more cash upfront in addition to the land. These fixed costs definitely need to be factored into the decision but are omitted in the text. If he has a lot more of that bonus money remaining, he could purchase the machinery outright. If paying cash is not possible he will need to take up a loan, lease, or rent; either option resulting in additional expenses incurred each period. Based on an article published by the University of Illinois in 2014, corn farmers in Illinois...

...Running head: Leadership Styles Leadership Styles Kellie Napper Grand Canyon University LDR 600 Leadership Styles and Development September 18, 2012 Leadership Styles Leaders have many different styles and approaches they take when evolving to becoming a great leader. It takes many years of practice to perfect a craft within certain individuals. Some crafts are more defined than others; never the less these skills are done to win over individuals in work environments and major league football teams. According to Katz (1955) there are three basic administrative needs that should be present for managers to be effective which are conceptual, human, and technical. Coach K’s approach contained both conceptual and human skills. Coach K was able to come up with an approach that was comfortable for both him and the team. He did not want to come with a lot of rules that no one would follow. Growing up Coach K spent a lot of time with his family. As he became an adult his wife and children were very important to him. This is the typed of approach he took with his team. Coach K lacked in my opinion in the technical area. He was not all about a lot of drills and long practices. Coach Knight’s approach contained conceptual and technical skills. Coach Knight had very little room for error. He drilled step by step plays into his players. He believed in practicing long hours and if you could not follow the rules you would be kicked out of practice. Coach Knight taught...

...Constructing Formulas for Mathematical Operations in Excel (Basic Tips and Techniques) Michelle A. Applequist Computer Information Systems (CIS105) Professor Hari Dhungana Strayer University September 1, 2009 Constructing Formulas for Mathematical Operations in Excel Microsoft Excel uses formulas to construct mathematical operations in a worksheet. After data have been entered into the worksheet, you can perform calculations, analyze data, and create charts. An Excel formula (calculations you create) and functions (formulas pre-existing in Excel) calculates the data entered in the worksheet. Formulas calculate numbers in a particular order. “Excel has one of the most comprehensive set of formulas, not only to perform calculations but also to manage data and records. It also has the ability to instantaneously re-calculate the results as the raw data changes” (Khoo, 2006-9, para. 2). To construct a formula after you have entered data, you must click in the cell that you want the results to appear in, and then type the formula. You can construct formulas by using the sum function, and editing numbers in a cell. It is stated that: Sum is an Excel function—a prewritten formula. Sum indicates the type of calculation that will take place (addition). When the sum function is activated, Excel looks above the active cell for a range of cells to sum. If there is no range above the cell, Excel will look to the left for a range of cells to...

...This week’s material is pretty easy to learn. My learning strategy stayed the same from last week; read the reading material, look at the optional video lectures, answer the discussion question, program the programming assignment, take the self-quiz, etc. … I appreciate learning about the for … each loop. I’m plenty familiar with the for loop, which iterates for a set number of loops, uses initialization, a continue condition, and updating at the top of its block; but, the for … each control structure is a alternative to for. The for .. each loop control structure does not have as complicated continue conditions, and iterates the length of the data structure. I want to master the for .. each loop because it processes a data structure better then the for loop. I interacted with people in the discussion forum.

I posted a discussion post, complete with programming examples of each data structure, but there are not enough other student responses to assess.

In its first month of operation, Maze Company purchased 100 units of inventory for $6, then 200 units for $7, and finally 150 units for $8. At the end of the month, 180 units remained. Compute the amount of phantom profit that would result if the company used FIFO rather than LIFO. The company uses the periodic method. FIFO: $1,410 150 units multiplied by $8 equals $1,200 30 units multiplied by $7 equals $210 $1,200 plus $210 equals $1,410 LIFO: $1,160 100 units multiplied by $6 equals $600 80 units multiplied by $7 equals $560 $600 plus $560 equals to $1,160 Therefore, the phantom profit would be $250 if the company were to use the FIFO rather than LIFO.

...Coach Mike Krzyzewski (Coach K.) and Coach Robert Knight (Coach Knight) were two of the most winning and successful coaches to ever coach basketball. These men are not just known for their record wins, but for their unique leadership. They each had a unique way of leading their teams. Coach Knight was Indiana University’s head basketball coach and became a legend there. Coach K. was the head coach at Duke University since 1980. A fact of interest, both of these two men knew each other in an earlier time. Coach Knight had been Mike Krzyzewski’s basketball coach when he played for the United States Military Academy at West Point. It was there they began to build a relationship of trust and respect that would follow and remain with them throughout both of their careers and beyond, as they were also friends. Each of these men have differing ways in which they lead their teams, but there are leadership styles which they shared when it came to coaching. When taking the model which Robert Katz developed we can see there are skills that did account for their success. Coach Knight held two of the leadership traits that were professed by Katz. Those were technical skills and conceptual skills. He had the ability to know exactly was needed and how to make changes based on each individual situation. According to Katz’s model, Coach Knight did not have human skills. He was known for his roughness (e.g; using high levels of profanity and throwing objects onto the court). He did not have human...

...tEXECUTIVE SUMMARY The paper identifies different source and causes of different types of conflict in the work place. Analysis of the conflict was done with the aid of Blake and Mouton’s model of conflict management. The paper reflects on a real life observation using brightlands care home. Conflicts observed in the home were analysed and discussed. Manager positions in handling the conflict were also analysed using Blake and Mouton’s conflict management style model. Five conflict management style (competitor, collaborator, compromiser, accommodator and avoider) were used to analysed the conflict were based on the research of Blake and Mouton (1964). Using the conflict scenario, the paper critically discussed various approach towards conflict resolution within and between groups. 1.0 INTRODUCTION Conflict is a normal and natural aspect of life and the working environment hardly do without one form of conflict or the other. Conflict in the workplace is a well known daily phenomenon and it is on the increase. It is worth saying that a conflict free company never existed and will never exist. Tension, cultural differences, aggressions, antagonisms, negative attitude and frustration will usually exists especially wherever men are forced to live and work together. . Burton (1972) said in his book that Conflict, like sex is an essential creative element in human relationships. It is the means to change, the means by which our social values of welfare, security, justice and...
