(TCO H) If the collective bargaining process is to be successful, it is important that both sides come prepared to bargain. This means that both management and labor must make plans and develop a strategy before they even look across the table at the other party. It is often this preparation that determines to what extent one side gets its way more than the other side. It is impossible to walk into negotiations without knowing the costs that are potentially involved in the new contract arrangement. Clearly the union is well-prepared with their wish list and with as many facts and figures as they can find to bolster their position. Management does much the same thing to trade off items on the table. (a) Select what you consider to be the key pre-negotiation preparation steps that can be taken by the union. (b) Select what you consider to be the key pre-negotiation preparation steps that can be taken by management. (c) Compare and contrast the historical elements that help us understand the current structure of the union.

• Identify several areas where artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) are having practical consequences, through your own research and via reading/responding to colleagues.  
• Carry on a reasonably intelligent conversation about these different methods, showing knowledge of current events, the social milieu in which the occur and have impact, the role of AI, and some understanding of the specific elements of the AI/ML methods involved.

1. Characterize one area in depth where AI/ML methods have changed the game remarkably within the past few years.
2. For your specific applications area, identify one or more of the key turning points - these may not be a tip-the-scales type of thing; they may in fact be just the first introduction of a new technology - but in retrospect, you can identify that this was the point where everything started to change.
3. Characterize the social/economic environment that is being and will be impacted by this AI/ML introduction.
4. Drill down until you find at least one of the specific AI/ML technologies and/or methods involved. (For example, in Cambridge Analytica's recently-revealed intrusion into the 2016 United States presidential election, there were many methods used - but the AI/ML method was logistic regression.)
5. Chase down this method - finding online descriptive sources (educational blogposts, You tube vids, etc.) so that you generally understand what this method is, what it can do, and what it can be applied to. Paraphrase or summarize your key findings on this method.
6. Provide overview descriptions and links to the most valuable resources that you've found.
7. (Final Reflection - to be completed near the end of your second week, and after you've done everything else:) Expand your thinking just a bit into the future. Is this method likely to be the predominant method that will be used, at least for the next few years? Or is it likely to be superseded by even more powerful methods? If so, what kinds of methods will these be, and how will they improve on the current AI/ML approach?

1. Calculate the average daily inventory holding cost during Pre- and Post- COVID-19 X1& X2? Explain whether this average is considered as population parameters or sample statistics? Justify your answer?                               [15 marks]
2. What is the 95 percent confidence intervals for the average daily inventory holding cost Pre- and Post- COVID-19 X1& X2? And what do you conclude by comparing these intervals? Also what is the 99 percent confidence interval for the average daily inventory holding cost Post- COVID-19 X2? And what do you conclude by comparing the 95 and 99 percent confidence intervals for the average daily inventory holding cost Post- COVID-19 X2?                                                                [15 Marks]
3. Suppose there is a hypothesis arguing that the population mean of the daily inventory holding cost is 1.5 times the value of average daily inventory holding cost during the selected period (November and December 2019) Pre-COVID-19 X1. List the full analytical steps to test this hypothesis? Comment on the result and write your conclusion regarding the hypothesis?             [15 marks]
4. To what extent is there a change in the pattern or the power of the relationship Pre- and Post- COVID-19 between the daily inventory holding cost X and the daily sales Y? Support your answer with the appropriate statistical evidences.                                                                              [15 marks]

Discuss the appropriate statistical technique that can explain the variation in the daily sales because of the daily inventory holding cost Post-COVID-19 post COVID 19. Justify your answer.

Question 1

(TCO C) Play the role of a consultant to management.
(a) Summarize for the management team the economic, political/legal, social, and other factors that you believe the union will integrate into their negotiations package. Keep in mind that the contract negotiations will typically reflect the current status of the economy, political/legal concerns, and social factors impacting society in general and other concerns held by management and labor.
