Engstrom Auto Mirror Plant has been experiencing a severe decrease in productivity, product quality, and employee motivation in several recent quarters. The company was initially able to improve performance by instituting the use of the Scanlon plan, but the improvements were temporary and the company has continued to decline since. There are a couple of root causes which have contributed to the decline in production, motivation, and quality; communication, and trust seem to be at the top of…

inventory accounts; raw materials, work in process (WIP) and finished goods (FG). This creates a large number of asset accounts that manufacturing needs to determine “transfers to” and “transfers from”. In our business we use dollar values in the calculation of these transfers (demand) rather than volume, as our products are very large (up to $25 million) and project durations are extensive (up to two years) in length. Our finished goods inventory asset account demand is based on the “cost of…

computer was referred to as a person performing mathematical calculations, but today a computer is being defined as a device that can be instructed to carry out an arbitrary set of arithmetic or logical operations automatically. In the 1800s, the first computing device was invented by an English mechanical engineer namely Charles Babbage. This device was called the difference engine and its purpose was to aid in navigational calculations, unfortunately, finding parts for this machine was a very…

of a classifier in stabilizing the bicycle, i.e. bringing the bicycle back to its upright position from a near fall position. The problem, however, is that in our case the reward of an activated action could not be immediately calculated, as the calculation requires knowledge of the system’s response which occurs with a delay. Consider, for example, the case with as input. If the role angle and its derivative are both positive ( and ), viewing the bicycle body from behind (Fig. 3), its…

The execution of Public Law is definitely the core of what Public Administration is within the context of a political and also, managerial aspect. It is a fact, that within a bureaucratic sense, effective and efficient public administration, is what determines the actual driving force of the survival of the state. Politics is dependent upon the state for its survival, as so too is the state dependent upon politics, for its survival, via the good execution of public law and the implementation of…

Density Open Response Density Density is the mass per unit of volume of a substance. Density is measured in grams per milliliter (g/mL), or grams per centimeters cubed (g/cm3). The density of an object is what causes it to sink or float. If an object has higher density than the liquid it is being placed into, it will sink. If an object has a lesser density than the liquid it is being placed into it will float. For example, the density of…

utilitarianism and its consequentialist nature, then establish how Mill defines happiness and pleasure. Next, I will explain the objection to utilitarianism which questions the practicality of the greatest happiness principle and the need for moral calculations in situations where moral decisions must me made. I will then examine Mill’s response to this criticism through distinguishing between the two classes of moral rules: the subordinate rules of morality and the fundamental rules of…

Group is a very unique company with its huge amount of joint ventures, we decided to add a darker pie within each bubble, to highlight the share of the Rodamas Group's ownership in each joint venture. Exhibit 1: Calculation of vertical axis of GE business screen. Exhibit 2: Calculation…

system. Then the Fitness Index is calculated using the formula FI= 15,000/ (sum of the 3 pulse counts during recovery). The FI should be around 20-80. The results from the entire lab section is then compiled and distributed for analysis. For the calculations the website http://www.alcula.com/calculators/statistics/linear-regression/ is used to calculate the linear regression equation and a graph of the line. The following pairs of data are used as comparison. BMI vs. FI, BMI vs. resting…

Visiting UCSD campus was on my to-do list for a while however I never had a chance to do it. I did a small research on how to get there and how to find the Geisel Library which was my main reason of going to UCSD this time. When I arrived on campus I did not expect that it would hard to find such large building like the Geisel Library, but I spend some time going on circles and asking for the directions. After a good 15 minutes I finally parked my car on the closest to the library parking lot.…
