...Inventory Proposal: Analysis of University Of Phoenix Demand for Units QRB501 Inventory Proposal University of Phoenix is a for-profit university initiated in 1976 by John Sperling (Kinser, 2006). The university originated in the Phoenix metropolitan area and started with only eight students (Kinser, 2006). Sperling wrote about the origin of University of Phoenix and refers to it as “Rebel with a Cause” (Kinser, 2006, para. 2). Sperling experienced much opposition in getting UOPX in operation to help underserved and hard working adults further their education. Thanks to his determination and confrontational side, Sperling is 88 and can see UOPX having a net worth of $9 billion (Kinser, 2006). University of Phoenix is top on the list of for-profit universities. They enroll more than 230,000 students and have 170 throughout the United States (Kinser, 2006). It is apparent to past critics that universities who provide opportunities for working adults are growing at a rapid rate. More students are leaning to online schools and universities to advance with higher degrees. One thing plaguing the United States is the economy. The cost of tuition is steadily increasing, making it more difficult for students to afford education without the help of scholarships, grants, and student loans. It is said that for-profit universities depend heavily on federally funded students to stay afloat financially (Field, 2011). There are reports and suits filed from past instructors...

...Business Proposal ECO/561 July 18, 2013 Business Proposal A business proposal gives a perspective buyer an intended and scale offering from the seller. In addition, a business proposal has to establish a reasonable interest in growth not only for the company or business, but also with the transferring interest in the clientele and consumers. This will provide the company a detailed analysis of economic and financial benefits and costs, which are used to maintain cash flows. According to McConnell, Brue, and Flynn (2009), “costs exist because resources are scarce, are productive, and have alternative uses.” Therefore, this gives companies and businesses the opportunity to improve or limit the existing services and goods. As a result, this business proposal is providing the information on Thomas Money Service Inc. and Future Growth Inc. (FGI) (University of Phoenix, 2013). Thomas Money Service Inc. is a finance company established in 1940, which provides business loans, commercial real estate loans, and business acquisition financing loans (University of Phoenix, 2013). In 1946, FGI branched off from Thomas Money Service Inc. to inquire into equipment financing (University of Phoenix, 2013). Therefore, Thomas Money Service Inc. developed an economic system, which gives the factors of production and methods used to motivate, coordinate, and direct economic activity (McConnell, Brue, & Flynn, 2009).

...Service Innovation Proposal Abstract When a company’s main business focus is service and clients, service innovation becomes vital to the success of the company’s lifeline. The company can use an approach such as the one in the proposal, Innovation Business Design Model (IBDM), to create a 5-step roadmap (University of Phoenix, 2009) when applying the steps to create a service innovation proposal. The following proposal provides a definition of what service means to a company, a description of how a company such as Intelligent Office uses the roadmap for service innovation to assist with the company’s business needs, along with an explanation of how Intelligent Office uses unique nuances of service innovative to the IBDM. Service Innovation Proposal Service can be described as performing a type of work, duty, or labor for a superior, manager, or a client and receive compensation for the work performed. Service can be provided by any industry such as medical, bereavement, technical, hospitality, telecommunications, charities, retail stores, financial institutions, and public utilities. Much of service innovation in today’s businesses revolves around online services and e-business. However, some companies can combine brick and mortar and the Internet to accomplish a goal of providing service for customers. For a company to use service innovation, situational assessments and market analysis through flowcharts, graphs, interviews, surveys, trends, cultural awareness, and...
