Just a month ago, Troy was fired, and replaced with Jamaal, a three year veteran of the maintenance department. He had a good attitude and was eager to please. He was well known and popular throughout the plant. And, while a few of the maintained workers resented his new position, Jamaal was mostly well respected and provided good leadership.

After replacing Troy, the maintained department made huge strides—productivity was up in every area of the factory, due in large part to better run-times on nearly all of the machines.   While that is exactly what Patrick was looking for, he had been hearing reports of more in-fighting within the group. The same two maintenance workers that got into the physical fight a couple of months ago (refer to Part 6 of the case study) did it again. But, this time they didn’t defend each other. Instead, they blamed each other.

Interestingly, while conflict among the maintenance department was increasing, conflict among the leadership team was decreasing. Dramatically. Even though things were better, they were far from perfect. Quality was still a huge issue, and little improvement had been made in that area. Too, the scrap rate was through the roof—they threw away nearly as much steel as they used, leading to a 50% scrap rate. With the price of steel constantly on the rise, it was worrisome. More worrisome was the fact that much of the scrap was the result of the machines—while they were running, many of the steel cutters and steel benders had divots, pocks, and cracks that led to bad cuts. These bad cuts inevitably meant that nearly half of the pieces of steel being cut were being sent to the scrap heap—no one wanted to spend big money on a grill with a dent or chip.

In the last leadership meeting, Patrick expected that Janet and Jose would discuss the issue of scrap with Jamaal. Yet, when Patrick raised the issue in the meeting, neither spoke up. Patrick wondered why.

Answer the following questions:

1. First, describe your gut reaction to this scenario. What do you think?

2. Describe the conflict within the maintenance group. Why does conflict like that happen? What does the text say about it, and what are its antecedents and consequences?

3. Do you think that there is conflict within the leadership team? Describe it and explain why scenarios like that happen. What does the text say about it, and what are its antecedents and consequences?

4. Based upon what you have learned from the text, what recommendations do you have for Patrick. Be specific.

Can someone find what's wrong? If I don't use the last main method Netbeans says that there is no main method. I can't figure out what's wrong.

This was the prompt:

Design a class named triangle that extends geometricObject. For this, you should have created a GeometricObject class first. The class contains:

• Three double datafields named side1, side2, side3 with default value 1.0.
• A no arg constructor that creates a default triangle.
• A constructor that creates a triangle with specified side1, side2 and side3.
• A method named getPerimeter() that returns the perimeter of a triangle.
• A method name toString that returns the string description of a triangle.(including color and filled)

Your main method should create a triangle object and display it using toString()

This is my code:

package geometricobject;

/**
*
*
*/
public class GeometricObject {

/**
* @param args the command line arguments
*/
private String color = "white";
private boolean filled;
private java.util.Date dateCreated;

public GeometricObject() {
dateCreated = new java.util.Date();
}

public GeometricObject(String color, boolean filled) {
dateCreated = new java.util.Date();
this.color = color;
this.filled = filled;
}

public String getColor() {
return color;
}

public void setColor(String color) {
this.color = color;
}

public boolean isFilled() {
return filled;
}

public void setFilled(boolean filled) {
this.filled = filled;
}

public java.util.Date getDatecreated() {
return dateCreated;
}
  
public String toString() {
return "created on" + dateCreated + "\ncolor: " + color+ " and filled: " + filled;
}
  

public class triangle extends GeometricObject
{
private double side1;
private double side2;
private double side3;
  
public triangle() {
side1 = 1;
side2 = 1;
side3 = 1;
}
  
public triangle(double side1, double side2, double side3) {
this.side1 = side1;
this.side2 = side2;
this.side3 = side3;
}
public double getSide1() {
return side1;
}
public double getSide2() {
return side2;
}
public double getSide3() {
return side3;
}
public void setSide1(double side1) {
this.side1 = side1;
}
public void setSide2(double side2) {
this.side2 = side2;
}
public void setSide3(double side3) {
this.side3 = side3;
}
public double getArea() {
double n = (side1+side2+side3) / 2.0;
return Math.sqrt(n*(n-side1)*(n-side2)*(n-side3));
}
public double getPerimeter() {
return side1 + side2 + side3;
}
  
@Override
public String toString() {
return super.toString() + "Triangle: side1 = " + side1 + " side2 = " + side2 + "side3 = " + side3 ;

1. A potter's wheel is rotating around a vertical axis through its center at a frequency of 1.8rev/s . The wheel can be considered a uniform disk of mass 5.0kg and diameter 0.30m . The potter then throws a 3.2-kg chunk of clay, approximately shaped as a flat disk of radius 8.0cm , onto the center of the rotating wheel.

What is the frequency of the wheel after the clay sticks to it? Ignore friction.

Create a program that defines a struct for a student. The following data should be part of the struct: studentID (int), gpa(double), fullName(string), units(int).

Instantiate two students and have the user type in information for each, then print both back to the screen afterwards. Input validation: studentID should be positive and have 4 digits, GPA should be between 0 and 4 (inclusive), units should be positive. Have any invalid inputs reentered.

Before preparing Part A, answer in complete sentences these 2 questions:

Direct materials, direct labor, and factory overhead cost variance analysis

Obj. 3, 4Mackinaw Inc. processes a base chemical into plastic. Standard costs and actual costs for direct materials, direct labor, and factory overhead incurred for the manufacture of 40,000 units of product were as follows:

Each unit requires 0.3 hour of direct labor.

The Holtz Corporation acquired 80 percent of the 100,000 outstanding voting shares of Devine, Inc., for $6.70 per share on January 1, 2017. The remaining 20 percent of Devine’s shares also traded actively at $6.70 per share before and after Holtz’s acquisition. An appraisal made on that date determined that all book values appropriately reflected the fair values of Devine’s underlying accounts except that a building with a 5-year future life was undervalued by $57,000 and a fully amortized trademark with an estimated 10-year remaining life had a $69,000 fair value. At the acquisition date, Devine reported common stock of $100,000 and a retained earnings balance of $224,000.

On January 4, 2018, Runyan Bakery paid $324 million for 10 million shares of Lavery Labeling Company common stock. The investment represents a 30% interest in the net assets of Lavery and gave Runyan the ability to excercise significant influence over Lavery's operations. Runyan chose the fair value option to account for this investment. Runyan received dividends of $2.00 per share on December 31, 2018, and Lavery reported net income of $160 million for the year ended December 31, 2018. The market value of Lavery's common stock at December 31, 2018 was $31 per share. On the purchase date, the book value of Lavery's net assets was $800 million and:

a. The fair value of Lavery's depreciable assets, with an average remaining useful life of six years, exceeded their book value by $80 million.

b. The remainder of the excess of the cost of the investment over the book value of net assets purchased was attributable to goodwill.

Required:

1-a. Prepare all appropriate journal entries related to the investment during 2018, assuming Runyan accounts for this investment under fair value option, and accounts for the Lavery investment in a manner similar to what it would use for securities for which there is not specific influence.

1-b Calculate the effect of these journal entries on 2018 net income, and the amount at which the investment is carried in the December 31, 2018, balance sheet.

2-a Prepare all appropriate journal entries related to the investment during 2018, assuming Runyan accounts for this investment under the fair value option, but uses equity method accounting to account for Lavery's income and dividends, and then records a fair value adjustment at the end of the year that allows it to comply with GAAP.

2-b Calculate the effect of these journal entries on 2018 net income, and the amount at which the investment is carried in the December 31, 2018, balance sheet.
