According to “Exploring Business” by Karen Collins, In choosing a location, managers must consider several factors which include location close to suppliers and customers to minimize shipping costs, location with enough numbers of skilled workers, locations where people can enjoy living, locations where costs for resources and expenses are low, locations with a favorable business climate. A location I would recommend would be Waikiki beach. Waikiki Beach is a legendary surfer’s paradise with mellow waves, fascinating surf culture and plenty of aloha spirit and it has the potential to see surf at any time during the year. In my opinion, I think demand is the most important for choosing a location. Waikiki beach is internationally known as the best place for vacation, so I can expect the high demand for a year.

Since the place is popular for surfing, many people who visit Waikiki beach would like to learn how to surf from specialized surfers and they look for someone who has knowledge about surfing. Because of this situation, there would be many people who are skilled and specialized surfers. In other words, it can be easy to get enough numbers of skilled workers for managers.

Also, it’s locations where they and their families will enjoy living. A few years ago, I visited Waikiki beach with my family. All members of my family told that it is the first time I have such a nice and clean environment. That means they are definitely able to release their stresses by nature and the place. Therefore, if the two surfers have a business in Waikiki beach, not only they can enjoy their business, they can overcome even if they have a hard time because of the beautiful place and nature.

Lastly, Waikiki beach requires less expenses in terms of labor. According to Mike Maciag, Hawaii average hourly wage is $19.24. it is cheaper than another location which is popular for the beach, California. California's average hourly wage is $19.67. I believe that since there is a high demand of skilled and specialized surfer who are looking for a job, the wage should decrease which is a benefit for owners.

Overall, I believe that they will succeed in their business in Waikiki beach with the three factors that I mentioned.

A project to build a new bridge seems to be going very well since the project is well ahead of schedule and costs seem to be running very low. A major milestone has been reached where the first two activitieshave been totally completed and the third activity is 60 percent complete. The planners were only expecting to be 50 percent through the third activity at this time. The first activity involves prepping the site for the bridge. It was expected that this would cost $1,420,000 and it was done for only $1,300,000. The second activity was the pouring of concrete for the bridge. This was expected to cost $10,500,000 but was actually done for $9,000,000. The third and final activity is the actual construction ofthe bridge superstructure. This was expected to cost a total of $8,500,000. To date they have spent $5,000,000 on the superstructure. Calculate the schedule variance, schedule performance index, and cost index for the project to date. How is the project going?

I would like assistance creating an outline for the following problem statement:

The aviation industry has an impact on the global oil demand that has grown over the decades. At the present moment, liquid hydrocarbon fuels represent the primary form of powering commercial air travel. The expansion of the industry requires that a new approach must be adopted to assist with managing carbon emissions. Development and implementation of biofuels must be accomplished in order to reduce carbon emissions.

Research and development is required to produce advanced aviation biofuels which can utilize agricultural residues and municipal solid waste. These resources are more abundant and less costly than waste oils and animal fats that are typically utilized by HEFA-SPK. Additionally, synthetic fuels produced from renewable electricity, CO2, and water via power-to-liquid processes could offer a sustainable, long-term solution for the aviation industry.
