...Unit 21: Nutrition for Health and Social Care Unit code: L/601/2407 QCF Level 3: BTEC Nationals Credit value: 10 Guided learning hours: 60 Aim and purpose This unit aims to give learners an understanding of current thinking on nutritional health particularly relating to users of health and social care services. Learners will then be able to apply this understanding and make recommendations to improve the nutritional health of an individual. Unit introduction This unit builds on learner understanding of the principles introduced in Unit 5: Fundamentals of Anatomy and Physiology for Health and Social Care. Improvements in the diet of individuals are increasingly being recognised as a significant factor in maintaining, or effecting improvements, in overall health. It is therefore important that people working in the health and social care sectors, or those who are responsible for the wellbeing of others, have a good understanding of nutrition and diet. This unit gives learners an understanding of nutrition from a science-based perspective and of the role that food plays in social contexts. The unit may also provide useful underpinning knowledge for the study of food hygiene and practical culinary skills. Learners will explore concepts of nutrition using the language of nutritional science. Different aspects of nutritional health will be defined and routine ways of measuring this explored. Other aspects of nutritional data will involve describing...

...Linear Programming (LP) Linear programming, simply put, is the most widely used mathematical programming technique. It has a long history dating back to the 1930s. The Russian mathematical economist Leonid Kantorovich published an important article about linear programming in 1939. George Stigler published his famous diet problem in 1945 (“The Cost of Subsistence”). Of course, no one could actually solve these problems until George Dantzig developed the simplex method, which was published in 1951. Within a few years, a variety of American businesses recognized that they could save millions of dollars a year using linear programming models. And in the 1950s, that was a lot of money. In his book Methods of Mathematical Economics (Springer-Verlag, 1980), Joel Franklin talks about some of the uses of linear programming (LP). In fact, about half of his book is devoted to LP and its extensions. Today, we will analyze one of the examples provided in that book. The example comes from a 1972 article published in the Monthly Review of the Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond. Alfred Broaddus, the author, was trying to explain to bankers how Bankers Trust Company used linear programming models in investment management. His example was simple and effective. The bank has up to 100 million dollars to invest, a portion of which can go into loans (L), and a portion of which can go into securities (S). Loans earn 10%, securities 5%. The bank is required to keep 25% of its invested...

Demonstrate the effect of a price ceiling and a price floor on a market. Explain the effect of taxes, tariffs, and quotas on equilibrium price and quantity. State the limitations of demand and supply analysis. State six roles of government. It is by invisible hands that we are bent and tortured worst. Nietzsche I n the last chapter we introduced you to the concepts of supply and demand. In this chapter we will (1) show you the power of supply and demand, (2) show you how the invisible hand interacts with social and political forces to change the outcome of supply and demand analysis; and (3) discuss how one must adjust supply and demand analysis with other issues kept at the back of one’s mind. THE POWER OF SUPPLY AND DEMAND To ensure that you understand the supply and demand graphs throughout the book, and can apply them, let’s go through an example. Figure 5-1(a) deals with an increase in demand. Figure 5-1(b) deals with a decrease in supply. 104 USING SUPPLY AND DEMAND s CHAPTER 5 105 Figure 5-1 (a and b) SHIFTS IN SUPPLY AND DEMAND When there is an increase in demand (the demand curve shifts outward), there is upward pressure on the price, as shown in (a).

...CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION Consumers perceive that small bakeries offer convenience, personal service, and fresher, better quality products. In general, bakery sales increase when consumers’ average income increases. The industry is highly competitive, making it very difficult to start a new bakery, especially in cities. An entrepreneur might consider buying an existing business or locating in a rural area. One of the fastest growing areas in the bakery business is the specialty franchise store, producing everything from donuts to complete product lines. For specific information on franchising, refer to Franchising PH guide. A bakery is one of the few businesses where manufacturing and retailing are performed by the same people. You have to be an exceptional baker and business person producing and selling distinctive goods. Get experience in both areas before starting, including areas such as management and accounting. If you buy an existing bakery, carefully evaluate the opportunity. Study the reasons for selling and assess potential profits, sales, expenses, assets and liabilities. Consult with an expert about the condition of the bakery equipment. Ask a lawyer to review any agreement. If you start a new bakery, do the same kind of careful assessments and consult with an accountant and a lawyer. Refer to the Service Business Plan book. Expect early mornings, long days and hard physical work. Sales fluctuate during the year and you will be busiest during special days and...

...desktop computers. SilComputers would like to know how many of each product to produce in order to maximize pro t for the quarter. There are a number of limits on what SilComputers can produce. The major constraints are as follows: 1. Each computer either notebook or desktop requires a Processing Chip. Due to tightness in the market, our supplier has allocated 10,000 such chips to us. 2. Each computer requires memory. Memory comes in 16MB chip sets. A notebook computer has 16MB memory installed so needs 1 chip set while a desktop computer has 32MB so requires 2 chip sets . We received a great deal on chip sets, so have a stock of 15,000 chip sets to use over the next quarter. 3. Each computer requires assembly time. Due to tight tolerances, a notebook computer takes more time to assemble: 4 minutes versus 3 minutes for a desktop. There are 25,000 minutes of assembly time available in the next quarter. Given current market conditions, material cost, and our production system, each notebook computer produced generates $750 pro t, and each desktop produces $1000 pro t. There are many questions SilComputer might ask. The most obvious are such things as How many of each type computer should SilComputer produce in the next quarter?" What is the maximum pro t SilComputer can make?" Less obvious, but perhaps of more managerial interest are How much should SilComputer be willing to pay for an extra memory chip set?" What is the e ect of losing 1,000 minutes of assembly time due to an unexpected...
