In the essay "Beholding", the author spends a good deal of time discussing different perspectives on staring, visual activism, etc. Please describe a time when you were "beheld" and how that interaction changed you. (These do not have to be negative experiences.....feel free to share a positive one if you'd like.)

A leading author in accounting and finance, Alfred Rappaport focuses in his work on the importance of a firm's management continually taking steps that increase shareholder value. In a recent article he set out his "Ten Ways to Create Shareholder Value:"

1. Do not manage earnings or provide earnings guidance; do not focus on earnings as it reflects neither the company's value or the change in value over the reporting period.
2. Make the strategic decisions that maximize expected value, even at the expense of lowering near-term earnings; this may mean divesting units that do not contribute to the company's long-term strategic goals though they do contribute to current profits.
3. Make acquisitions that maximize expected value, even at the expense of lowering near-term earnings; do not make acquisitions that improve only current earnings per share, but those that are expected to contribute to long-term value.
4. Carry only assets that maximize value; continually review assets and be prepared to sell units, brands, real estate, or other assets that can be sold for a price that is greater than their value to the company.
5. Return cash to shareholders when there are no credible value-creating opportunities to invest in the business; through cash dividends and stock buybacks.
6. Reward CEOs and other senior executives for delivering superior long-term returns.
7. Reward operating unit managers for adding superior multiyear value.
8. Reward middle managers and frontline employees for delivering superior performance on the key value drivers that they influence directly.
9. Require senior executives to bear risks of ownership just as shareholders do.
10. Provide investors with value relevant information.

Required: Based on Chapter 20, identify managerial concepts that you would apply for each of the 10 steps. Compensation concepts, management comp programs, business valuation techniques. Please do not simply write "Book Value" valuation. Explain why you would use such concepts and valuation models and why.

1. The author states that character and ethics are largely something that either someone has, or does not have. How can this be assessed during the police application process?

2. In states that elect judges, is it possible to identify judges with prior ethical issues?

3. Discuss recommendations and strategies to help build high integrity among criminal justice personnel. Be sure to discuss police, courts, and corrections separately and highlight how these strategies may be similar and how they may be different.

4. Discuss some examples of police corruption. What factors do you believe led to these situations?

The Health Insurance Experiment (HIE) is perhaps the greatest experiment in the history of healthcare finance as it explores the interface of people and insurance and the methods for reducing waste in the consumption of healthcare through moral hazard.

Tasks:

Describe the results of the experiment and analyze how it affects healthcare today.

i need to design the experiment for 5th and 6th grade students, the experiment also should exciting the student , please do copy and paste from the internet. with all of these parts: purpose, introduction, procedure, data collection, results and conclusion and should be the safe experiment.

An experiment is planned to compare three methods of instruction. Each is tested with a single classroom of 25 students. A different instructor is to be used for each classroom and consequently each instruction method. a. Write a short critique of the proposed experiment. b. How could the experiment be improved?

Let V be a finite dimensional vector space over R. If S is a set of elements in V such that Span(S) = V ,

what is the relationship between S and the basis of V ?

Bound state in potential. Where

V(x)=inf for x<0

V(x)=0 for 0 ≤ x ≤ L

V (x) = U for x > L

Write down the Schrödingerequation and solutions (wavesolutions) on general form for the three V(x).
