Roll Back - Creation of Task Force 6 Boundary Management 6 X-Teams 6 Team Process Methodology & Evaluation 6 1. Organizational Context • The company had a great period of growth since it started in 1881, until 1990. • The company sold its products to a wide range of customers. • The company was affected by an economic slowdown and a declining price of gold (1990 recession). • This economic slowdown affected the company’s sales to industrial customers and jewelery manufacturers. • These changes caused excessive inventories. • Wynn Aston III, chief executive, decided to reexamine the company procedures for forecasting sales. • Peter Casey (Vice president of marketing) and Chis Trott (Vice president of corporate planning) were chosen to create a task force to investigate and find a solution for this problem. • The team selected passed through different steps: task force formation, initial meeting of task force, preparation of the task force report and the August 4 report. • During these steps, the task force team made several mistakes that caused conflict in the presentation of the oral report and to other members of the organization. 2. Analysis • Old-timers created resistance to new and young MBA members instead of respecting the designated positions (for example that a young member would lead the task...

...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. This week’s question asked students to detail the for , and for … each control structure, and include the enum data structure in the explanation. I posted a discussion post, complete with programming examples of each data structure, but there are not enough other student responses to assess. I’ll keep looking for other students to post their discussion assignment, as I need to assess three student discussion posts. This week, I feel it will be helpful to master the for .. each, while, and do … while control structures. Often, I use the for loop, and select case / switch, but the other loops escape my programming toolbox. This week, I learned how to program with while...

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. Question 4. Compute the lower of cost or market valuation for O'Connor's inventory. 12,500(camera)+9,000(camcorders)+12,800(DVD’s)= $34,300 Question 5.

We strive to provide them with a certificate and GED courses, and some vocational training. Our goals are to help these kids learn the necessary skills to lead a better life, and to gain employment opportunities in the future. Impact of Organizational Structure There are many things that a director will face when trying to turn a vision into a reality. The first thing of course will be the hiring process. Having a vision, the director will have a certain idea of how he/she expects the organization to be run. So, when the hiring process begins, he/she will want to make sure that they find the most qualified people, and ones who will share the same ideology as they do. The one drawback that I can foresee, are the ones with exceptional qualifications wanting more money. With having a budget, this leaves very little room for salary negotiations. Another issue would be finding the right place to open this organization. Since you have a budget, you must choose the best place possible and the right size as well. Being on a budget could make this task kind of difficult. Finding the right place to work on...

...Date issued: 4 July 2011 The Centro Case has shone the spotlight on the duties of directors after the court found in favour of the Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC) and ruled that the directors breached their duty of care in the preparation of the company’s financial statements. As the reporting season begins, members who are directors, chief financial officers or who are involved in preparing financial statements, will need to carefully consider the key messages in this judgment in the coming weeks. On Monday 27 June, Justice Middleton of the Federal Court handed down his decision in ASIC v Healey [2011] FCA 717 (the Centro Case). He found that each director knew of the interest-bearing liabilities and debt guarantees, and should have been aware of the relevant accounting principles that would have alerted each director to the apparent error in the proposed financial statements. Each director could, and should, then have made enquiries to fulfil the steps required of them. This decision focused on financial accounts, signed off by directors in 2007, which were found to have failed to disclose billions of dollars of short-term debt. Directors and other relevant parties will need to consider the key outcomes of the judgment as they prepare, scrutinise and settle company financial accounts. The judgment affirms that, while board members do not have to be experts in accounting standards, they must carefully scrutinise financial statements. While the...

...I believe all persuasive approaches will be different depending on who I will be approaching in the audience. I order to have an effective approach I must know who I am approaching and how I will approach them. Considering that a message can be directed to a boss, a peer, a challenging person, or an open-minded person I must be able to construct or tailor my approach according to each person in order to get to the see my point of view and gain their support. Each person will develop their opinions differently not only because each person has their own mind but because each plays a different role. For example, if I am approaching my boss in discussion I must consider the fact that he or she has worked extremely hard to obtain a position where they can lead others and is person who is respected because of their position who goals are in line with that of company’s vision. Therefore, my approach would be to follow the same order of directing my approach to line up with the company’s goals. If I were speaking with a peer, this approach would be probably be the easiest considering that we have established grounds of comfort and our views and goals would be easier. When approaching a peer there is no or very little preparation involved. Usually, peers see things eye to eye and very rarely does someone have to work hard in order to make a good impression or get them to see my point of view. In the case of the challenging person, this would be the complete opposite of a peer...
