To effectively provide a unique customer experience the development of The Fun Center as a themed entertainment hub is essential (Orland, 2015). Specifically, this is…
study published through Harvard’s Evidence for Policy Design found astonishing results from low cost private schools in Pakistan (the circumstances of the schools being very similar to many South African contexts, i.e. in poverty with underperforming public schools) (Andrabi et al., 2010:1). The test scores of students, conducted to ensure no cheating, were 0.8 to 1 standard deviations higher in low cost private schools than in their public counterparts (Andrabi et al., 2010:1). These…

Private prisons lobby for harsh criminal laws to increase profit at the cost of inmates’ wellbeing. In 1998 election cycle, private prisons contributed $540,000 to 361 politicians (Anderson, 2009). Bribes were also used as method to encourage private prisons. In 2009, two Pennsylvania judges received $2.6 million to oppose alternative and lenient sentences for juveniles (Anderson, 2009) Incarceration negatively affects recidivism rates (Anderson, 2009). To emphasize, on what private prisons have…
traditionally applied overhead to its products as a function of material costs. Management believed using “material costs” as an allocation base made sense because thicker products (containing more material per lineal foot than thinner products) required more machine time to process as they demanded slower machine speeds. Additionally, drying time and energy consumption increase with thicker basis weights. (See Exhibit 1 for material costs associated with each product, or grade.) Thus, unit…
To China’s east lay the Yellow Sea, the East China Sea, and the Pacific Ocean. Mountain ranges and deserts dominate about two-thirds of China’s landmass. In west China lay the Taklimakan (TAH•kluh•muh•KAHN) Desert and the icy 15,000-foot Plateau of Tibet. To the southwest are the Himalayas. And to the north are the desolate Gobi Desert and the Mongolian Plateau. River Systems Two major river systems flow from the mountainous west to the Pacific Ocean. The Huang He (hwahng•HUH), also known as…
satisfaction and service. A key to Amazon’s success was the decision to forego early profits to secure market share. As a result, Amazon is one of the most recognizable online retailers. Amazon’s shipping costs are relatively high in comparison to other online retailers. Despite increases in shipping costs they have yet to adjust their pricing strategy. Dependence on the North American market, despite expanding into international markets is another weakness. Amazon still derives 55% of its…
Growing human population within the city increases pressure on the infrastructure and on natural resources, and this affects the environment. As cities expand, they cut deeper into surrounding rural areas, causing environmental problems, such as the loss of wetlands, loss of biological habitat, and air and water pollution. The high density of automobiles, factories, and commercial enterprises in urban areas adds to airborne emissions, including particulate matter, various types of oxides, and…

There are cons and pros to this new policy. There are at least two cons if this bill is passed. First of all, if the prison term is doubled, it will cost a lot of tax money. Second of all, according to statistic, people who commit crimes have one thing in common; they think they will not get caught committing crimes. Lastly, prisons are already overcrowded due to the number of inmates who have committed minor offenses, doubling the sentence will add to this problem. On the other hand, there…
