Write a research paper of no more than 3,000 words addressing the roles of employers, employees and government in providing for the material well-being of the families of large-company employees.

Background Biblically Based Economic Perspective

Recently, commentators have criticized large corporations such as Walmart, McDonalds and Amazon for not “taking care” of their employees, as evidenced by the fact that many of the employees receive government benefits designed to help low-income families. They say that employees and their families needing government assistance is a sign that the companies have offloaded their duty to pay a “living wage” onto the taxpayer through government programs.
Sen. Bernie Sanders says he will soon introduce legislation that would require large employers such as Amazon, Walmart and McDonald’s to fully cover the cost of food stamps, public housing, Medicaid and other federal assistance received by their employees. The goal, he says, is to force corporations to pay a living wage and curb about $150 Billion in taxpayer dollars that go to funding federal assistance programs for low-wage workers each year. The bill would impose a 100 percent tax on government benefits received by workers at companies with 500 or more employees. For example, if an Amazon employee receives $300 in food stamps, Amazon would be taxed $300.

Trade openness Effects on Economic Development

How trade openness affects the economic development. The empirical evidence indicates that a trade threshold exists below which greater trade openness has beneficial effects on economic growth and above which the trade effect on growth declines. As with most regional integration schemes, the underlying economic rationale of the agreement is to provide greater opportunities to reap economies of scale, greater competition, a more attractive internal market for investment (both foreign and domestic), and an acceleration of intra-regional trade. The paper is organised as follows: the second section provides an overview of the theoretical literature regarding industrial geography focussing on recent contributions collectively know as the ‘new economic geography’ and discussing its possible implications

Resource Allocation and Management

Resource Allocation and Management

In this piece of Resource Allocation and Management work, you will be assessed based on the following outcome:
Analyze potential resource conflicts. This work is designed to evaluate your ability to assign the right resource to do the right work at the right time. Please note that resources include people, capital, equipment, and technology. Please note that key stakeholders may require changes to the original scope, and it is important that you consider the impact on the schedule and budget.

Resource Allocation and Management
Resource Conflicts

The mayor of San Bernardino, CA recently met with the chief of police, and the discussion focused on decreasing the number of traffic accidents. A recent study shows that San Bernardino has a fatal accident rate of roughly 16 deaths per 100,000 residents. Chief of Police, Jarrod Burguan, recommended to Mayor Carey Davis, the use of an automated enforcement system, which are units that can track a car’s speed and create a video file of each event. Mr. Burguan attended a presentation by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) where he learned that fixed-camera speed enforcement units may reduce crashes by as much as 25%. After this discussion, Mayor Davis submitted the automated enforcement system proposal to the city council. The proposal was reviewed per normal procedures, and the feedback from the community was positive. While getting a speeding citation is unfortunate, the people of San Bernardino agreed that the problem needed to be addressed, especially since auto insurance rates were rising. To make the transition easier, Phase 1 of the project is to install the units in the 17 high-crash locations identified by the police department. Amanda Lancaster and Josh Cervantes were the two project managers from the City assigned to this important initiative. The schedule for the project was 14-months, and a budget of $2.3 million was approved. The money would cover all resource costs, including contractors, equipment, supplies, technology, and so on. At the 11-month mark, the project was behind schedule with only 8 units installed. The other notable problem facing Amanda and Josh was that all $2.3 million of the budget was spent. Aware of the situation, Mayor Davis has called Amanda and Josh for a meeting to discuss the situation.

Keeping the Resource Allocation and Management Project on Schedule

For this piece of work, take the role of Amanda and Josh and provide responses to the following items:
a) What proactive actions do you believe Amanda and Josh could have taken to keep the project on schedule?
b) Given the project has spent the $2.3M budget, what is your recommendation regarding the nine (9) units that have to be installed? From a cost perspective, what are the options available to Amanda and Josh?
c) A key council member wants assurance that the project will be completed in three (3) months or less. How will you address this individual?
d) Amanda and Josh are concerned that people and equipment assigned for the project are sometimes unavailable when scheduled. What are reasons this problem might be surfacing during the execution phase?
e) Based on what you learned from this work, what are five (5) lessons learned that you can share with the project managers.

The Elasticity of Supply Advanced Analysis

The Elasticity of Supply Advanced Analysis Problem 1: Advance Analysis——Page 1
Currently, at a price of $1 each, 100 popsicles are sold per day in the perpetually hot town of Rostin. Consider the elasticity of supply. In the short, run, a price increase from $1 to 42 is unit-elastic
(E, +1.0).  The Elasticity of Supply Advanced Analysis So how many popsicles will be sold each day in the short run if the price rises to $2 each? In the long run a price increase from $1 to $2 has an elasticity of supply of 1.50. So how many popsicles will be sold per day in the long run if the price rises to $2 each? (Hint: Apply the midpoints approach to the elasticity of supply.)
Problem 2: Advance Analysis——Page 2
Let MUa=z=10-x and measured in utlis, x is the amount spent on product A, and y is the amount spent on product B. Assume that the consumer has $10 to spend on A and B-that is, x+y=10. How is the $10 best allocated between A and B that is, x+y+ 10. How the $10 is best allocated between A & B? How much utility will be marginal dollar yield?

Form, format, presentation, and appearance are almost as important in accounting and auditing as correct numbers. Poor presentation, in both written work (Word) and spreadsheets (Excel) is an indication of careless thinking and analysis. You cannot earn full credit, even if the solutions are correct, if your work is not presented in a professional manner. The Elasticity of Supply Advanced Analysis On the other hand, it is possible to receive full credit for professionally presented work even if the solution is not absolutely correct.
All submitted written work must include an introduction. Include all relevant facts, dates, persons, et cetera, and a statement of what you are doing and why. Avoid using the first person.
Conclusions must be supported. Numbers and calculations are not self-explanatory. In fact, numbers and calculations are not the analysis. After you perform the calculations, you must then analyze (interpret and explain) the results.
Your analyses, papers, projects, and the like must be prepared “in good and proper form.” That means, for example, when you prepare financial information, your numbers must be aligned on the decimal and right justified. Use commas for thousands. Use underlines and dollar signs appropriately. Every number must be properly labeled and supported with calculations. This does not mean to type or show the formulas. It means to “show” the calculations in statement or schedule (table) form. Do not type formulas, equations, and calculations or show math or equal signs. Your client is not interested in reading formulas. The Elasticity of Supply Advanced Analysis
When finished, submit your completed problems in one file (Word or Excel) for grading and instructor feedback. The Elasticity of Supply Advanced Analysis
Word file: The cover page must include your name, school, date, unit and assignment numbers, textbook chapter number, and problem number. Each problem must begin on a new page with a hard page-break. If you use Word to prepare calculations, prepare them in table form as if it were in Excel. Do not write anything past the margins.

The Elasticity of Supply Advanced Analysis Guidelines and Requirements

Excel file: The first tab is the cover page with the same information as above. Each problem must be on a separate tab. Each tab must be properly labeled. Note that Excel is not actually required, but if you use Excel, you must use it correctly. One number in one cell, and each number (cell) properly labeled. Do not type formulas. You cannot use a calculator in Excel. You must use Excel functions to calculate. Do not write anything past the margins. Use landscape if necessary. The Elasticity of Supply Advanced Analysis
These tips will help you when completing the paper, insert graph, chart and/or excel worksheet if needed.
1) Advanced Analysis’ problem: 1
2) Note that this is elasticity of SUPPLY (not demand). The question really should state “how will be offered for sale” rather “how many will be sold”.
Note that price elasticity = percentage change in quantity divided by percentage change in price.
For example: suppose elasticity is 0.2. Then
0.2 = (percentage change in quantity) divided by (percentage change in price). The Elasticity of Supply Advanced Analysis
And if the percentage change in price is 10 then
0.2 = (percentage change in quantity) divided by (10).
This means the percentage change in quantity must be 2:
0.2 * 10 = percentage change in quantity
You can use the mid-point calculation to calculate the percentage changes. For example, going from 20 to 22 is either a 10% change or a 9% change, depending on how you calculate.
2/20 = 10%
2/22 = 9%
The mid-point approach is a compromise:
2/21 = 9.5% The Elasticity of Supply Advanced Analysis
3) For Problem 2: Note, the marginal utilities are ‘per dollar spent on the good’. Solve by setting the two equal to each other (because in equilibrium the MU obtained from one good is equal to the MU obtained from the other good (per dollar spent)). The Elasticity of Supply Advanced Analysis
