...Part 1- Specifications Table (MS Word) Case Study- Director’s Request for PCs Please use the document “Case Study Instructions Director’s Request for PCs” found in the Case Study Instructions conference topic for the list of requirements which should be met by this project. Part 1: For the case study outlines in the Instructions topic, create MS Word tables that identify and contain the hardware and software requirements to meet the director's requirements. The MS Word document in its final form will include 5 MS Word tables. It will include a two-paragraph narrative summary that classifies the user type and identifies the PC category(ies) that will be recommended. Think of the narrative summary as an executive summary where you outline the recommendations without going into a great deal of detail. You will write this executive summary after you have completed the tables. But place the executive summary after your title page, BEFORE the 5 tables. Students are expected to conduct external research to adequately address all aspects of the assignment requirements. Any outside sources should be correctly cited in APA style at the end of the table. Students will need to include specific requirements from the case study to show why each item is being recommended. Each element listed below must be incorporated into the assignment. Omissions will result in loss of points. |Requirement |Points Allocated |Comments...

...BUSI 301 COURTROOM OBSERVATION PAPER Indiana Northern District Court Case Number 82a04-8876-cv285 Plaintiff: Deborah White Plaintiff representatives: Walsh Jackson and Amanda Babott Defendant: Patrick Gibbs and O’Malley’s Tavern Defendant Representatives: Benjamin Walton and Jordan Van Meter Defendant Council Overview: Jordan Van Meter and Benjamin Walton are representing the defendant who is Patrick Gibbs and O’Malley’s Tavern. The representing defense suggests that the Court give a summary judgment to John Daniels who was the bartender at O’Malley’s Tavern. The Plaintiff is seeking damages from the defendant, Patrick Gibbs and O’Malley’s tavern stating that Mr. Gibbs had knowledge of Mr. Hard’s intoxication. The Indiana Law. Ind Code Ann 7.1-5-10-15.5 2006 does require that a defendant have actual knowledge in order to recover damages. Constructive knowledge does not satisfy the presumption, only subjective knowledge. Circumstantial evidences cannot support constructive knowledge, but only actual knowledge. According to the 7th circuit court of Indiana, visible acts of intoxication are subjective. The bartender himself only saw Mr. Hard sitting on a stool drinking whiskey which is not an uncommon occurrence in a bar. The case that was cited in the courtroom, the Ash Lock case (Ashlock v. Norris, 475 N.E.2d 1167, 1170 Ind. Ct. App. 1985) was not as severe as this case. This specific bartender at O’Malley’s Tavern did not have actual knowledge of...

...nearby Lake Dira. Five years later, Kelly Bates accused Alumina Inc. of contaminating the waters of Lake Dira with PAHs thus causing her 10 year old daughter’s leukemia. “Bates also alleges that her daughter’s disease may be as old as Alumina’s first instance of environmental law violation” (University of Phoenix, 2002). These allegations were reviewed by Alumina’s legal counsel and handled to keep the company from further litigation that would only serve to tarnish the company’s reputation. This paper will illustrate key facts, regulations and legal issues in the Business Regulation Simulation. It will address the values, conflicts among the stakeholders and ethical dilemmas with the multibillion dollar company. A legal counsel’s summary of basic issues and the action handling the environmental regulatory topic will be explored. Based on table 1, a risk analysis and alternative solutions will be examined. Lastly, this paper will be addressing ethical dilemmas identified and the alignment to Alumina’s values. Key facts, Regulations and Legal Issues Five years ago, Alumina was in violation of the Clean Water Act, 1972, by unlawfully discharging PAHs into Lake Dira in the state of Erehwon. “The Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) has determined that...

...xecutive summary Kota is experiencing a number of problems. The manage director to prevent over production and over stocking has resulted to a sequence of hiring and layoffs each year. And the company is suffering from liquidity challenges because it is not in a position to finance its day-to-day activities, so its bank account stands over drawn. This situation has impacted negatively on the company's ability to repay its earlier loans and customers are upset because of delayed delivery. Mr. Mehta and Ms. Pundir introduced a new quality control unit and hired two sales representatives and three nephews with the objective of creating commitment to the Pundir family. From the case, no audit or analysis was undertaken to ascertain whether the company needed a quality control unit. This is an example of how the company is increasing its operating costs which has contributed to its current liquidity challenges. Ms. Pundir is biased toward addressing shareholders’ needs rather than pursue what is good for business survival. It is reported that the company had previously declared high dividend payments to its shareholders because Pundir believed that it was risky to leave excess funds to the company. Similarly the company does not value its employees, the company prefers hire people in high season, and firing them in low seasons. Ms. Pundir is confronted with the challenge of addressing a unique cash shortage and this has to be done immediately. As a whole, the...

...element of the St. Dismas case study project. Using a project management tool like MS Project is typically the easiest and fastest way to do this. However, it is not the only way. You can use MS Office products as well to create the Gantt Chart. Students often ask about the use of project management software applications in this course. In the past we required the use of MS Project for this course but removed it as a requirement when we rewrote the course. The reason we removed it was that MS Project has a very steep learning curve for all but the most basic functions. The software is very expensive and is not web-based so it requires installation on your computer. This posed many issues for our students. In this course the assignments were designed so that students could complete them without using any project management software at all. For example, the WBS can be done using MS Word, EXCEL, PowerPoint, or VISIO. The same is true of the Gantt chart and network diagram although it does take more time to do them this way than it would if you used software that automatically draws the Gantt and network diagram from the WBS. There are a number of free tools and helpful websites available for creating project Gantt Charts. Here is a sample you might want to explore.

Scenario Ms. Conlay, a sales representative of CC Terminals has complained that Mr. Lawrence, another sales representative of CC Terminals, has been harassing her. She has indicated Mr. Lawrence has made several romantic advances, attempting to contact her both at work and during off-hours, and that his emails have been getting increasingly aggressive. When Ms. Conlay allegedly saw Mr. Lawrence show up while meeting a friend at an out-of-the-way coffee-shop, she contacted security the following day. The first responder team in CC Terminals investigated the computer device found during an off-hours search of Mr. Lawrence's cubical and analysed its contents. The first responder team recovered several documents and computer programs from the USB storage device which further indicate Mr. Lawrence's advances, aggression, and illegal activities.

...Theft Cases in 2007 and 2008: Is There any Significant Change 1. Introduction Human society is faced with criminal activities of different kinds like theft, burglary, robbery, robbery, arson, rape, assault, murders etc. All these are unpleasant and something none of us will like, but unfortunately, we all have to live with it and learn to cope with it. To minimize and control these unpleasant occurrences there is police. Police has mandate to ensure a safe life for citizens by controlling and minimizing occurrence of criminal activities, which is evident from reduced criminal cases year after year. The data on criminal cases are logged and a suitable statistical analysis can be made to see if really there is any significant drop in criminal cases in subsequent years. Statistics is the branch of knowledge in which data pertaining to different variables are either collected or generated by suitable experimental design. However, the data is generally very huge in volume and the useful information and underlying trends are hidden in the noise. Therefore, data needs to be processed to extract suitable information and underlying trends. There are many statistical procedures, which helps in extracting suitable information and underlying trends from a large pool of data. One such procedure is “Descriptive Statistics”, which provides useful statistics pertaining to a variable like mean, median, mode, standard deviation, kurtosis, skewness etc. These...

...title implies that the qualitative study was conducted on the participants after they received medical help in order to determine their perceptions of the Blue prescription as an intervention for enhancing levels of physical activity. Study Abstract An abstract refers to a brief summary of a concluded research. A proper abstract inspires the reader to scan through the research purposely to learn more about what the investigation was all about. The abstract contains the following primary elements of the research: the problem statement; the significance of physical activity among patients with multiple sclerosis; the methodology; results; and the scientific gap of adopting the Blue prescription as a way of ensuring that patients overcome the problem. Although, the study abstract is comprehensive, and has relevant keywords, it is not complete due to the lack of limitations of the study. Introduction and Study Objectives The introduction to the research study is spot on, in the sense that it offers a deep insight into the topic being studied. The authors began by highlighting the rationale and importance of the health benefits of physical activity among patients with Multiple Sclerosis (MS); suggesting that, though previous studies discouraged physical activity among persons having chronic health complications, recent research studies have proven otherwise (Smith et al., 2012). The statement to the research problem points to the mobility challenges experienced by...

...One of the most common nutritional deficiencies worldwide is iron deficiency anemia (IDA) (Killip, Bennett, & Chambers, 2007). The most common cause of IDA in women is menorrhagia (Copstead & Banasik, 2013, p. 275). In Case Study 1, Ms. A. self-reports menorrhagia for 10 – 12 years (Grand Canyon University [GCU], 2013). As a 26-year-old white female Ms. A. is most likely is suffering from IDA. This paper will define IDA, and describe the causes and associated symptoms. It will then compare Ms. A.’s symptoms and laboratory results to IDA and explain the rationale for this conclusion. What is iron Deficiency Anemia? Anemia is the result of too few red blood cells (RBC’s) or RBC’s that don’t perform well (American Society of Hematology, 2016). RBC’s contain a protein called hemoglobin. Hemoglobin is responsible for carrying oxygen to the tissues. Iron is required for the body to make hemoglobin. If the body does not have enough iron, it cannot make hemoglobin, and the tissues of the body will not receive enough oxygen. As the name implies, IDA is a deficiency in the amount of iron, resulting in anemia....
