Strategies by definition, must employ the entire organisation if it is to achieve its long-term goals.Given that today's markets are in constant flux requiring organizations to be nimble if they are to adapt and compete,are strategies even necessary?One could argue that strategies can " shackle" an organization and prevent them from competing successfully in a volatile global economy.Is this position founded? Discuss its merits,provide and defend your position.

Biopsychology question

What is wrong with these statements:

Part 1) Heritability of enuresis (bed wetting) is 33% in boys and 10% in girls. Therefore, a boy is more affected by his genes (genes associated with bed wetting) than girls are affected by their genes (genes associated with bed wetting).

Part 2) Genes and environments always interact within an individual; heritability can tell us nothing about that interaction.

Hi, my name is Peter Metcalf. I'm the CEO and lead founder of Black Diamond. Very early on in the beginning of the company, the sports of climbing, mountaineering [inaudible] skiing were relatively small at that time. They've grown dramatically. However, if you aggregated the global demand for that product, then you could have a fairly meaningful business. I recognize that to be competitive, to do what we really wanted to do, we had to think globally. It was going to be about finding these global markets through finding other people who shared our passion, who were young, embryonic businesspeople in many cases who wanted to get into the business because they shared that passion, they knew the markets, they knew the space, and could develop a business as a distributer for us. And as time went on, we did begin to recognize that nobody really cares about Black Diamond as much as Black Diamond people do. And for that reason, we would have to take charge ultimately of the businesses that we were, the business we were conducting overseas through independent distributers. And there was also a recognition that, to be the same brand in Europe or in Asia as we were in North America, we would have to be something slightly different because of cultural values, cultural interpretations.

>> My name is Thomas Hodel. I'm from Switzerland. Born in Lausen. Doing outdoor sports were, was always a big part of my life, so a big passion of me, and that's why I'm here working at Black Diamond sharing that passion. And I have two roles at the moment. On a global view, I'm responsible for all the ski categories, so together with team here, we define strategies and directions for all the categories which belong to the ski side. And then, in Europe, I'm the European category director, so the role there is to make sure whatever we do here works also in Europe and the European needs are covered. It takes a long time to really figure out the differences in Europe, and it's, every country has a different culture, mentality. Having that European perspective, I think that that's definitely asset I can bring into this company and help this company to become more global, to address those needs better.

>> My name is Wim de Jager. Actually pronounced as Wim de Jager, but that's difficult. So Wim de Jager. I go with Wim de Jager. I'm the VP of manufacturing here at Black Diamond. Our business is really global. Our customers are global. And our manufacturing is definitely global as well. So, yeah, we own our own factory in Zhuhai. Products that we assemble and produce in the factory in Zhuhai are also part of this protective products that we use that are being used in climbing and in mountaineering, so the quality needs to be good. But also, we want to ensure that's being done in a good way. So we control it from start to finish, which means how we treat the people, how we manufacture, and how we run the organization, that we ensure that everything is done in the right way.

>> But more importantly, we have a certification and compliance process. We have auditors that go into these factories. We have a very strict guideline of ethical sourcing requirements. So we check these factories. We're not at some sweatshop. Factories that we're in, like, I think an apparel factory we're in in Bangladesh, the people get three meals a day. There's health care. There's English language. There's money for additional education. It's well ventilated, well lit. It's clean. It's safe. Because that's very important to us and 
what our values are.

Personal Investment Analysis Find of the cost of a bachelor's degree at the university of your choice assume additional costs of $16,000 for an additional fifth year of education to get Master's degree. Assume that all tuition is paid at the beginning of the year. A student considering this investment must evaluate the present value of cash flows from possessing a graduate degree versus holding only the undergraduate degree. Assume that the average student with an undergraduate degree is expected to earn an annual salary of $55,000 per year (assumed to be paid at the end of the year) for 10 years. Assume that the average student with a graduate Masters degree is expected to earn an annual salary of $76,000 per year (assumed to be paid at the end of the year) for nine years after graduation. Assume a minimum rate of return of 10%. Determine the net present value of cash flows from an undergraduate degree. Use the present value table provided in this chapter 26. Determine the net present value of cash flows from a Masters degree, assuming that no salary is earned during the graduate year of schooling. What is the net advantage or disadvantage of pursuing a graduate degree under these assumption?

1. Businesses have been hit severely in the light of Covid-19 pandemic and the Movement Control Order imposed by the Malaysian Government to curb the spread of the disease. Karim, a business owner of a restaurant in Negeri Sembilan, had to shut down his business as the abrupt decline in his business income could not sustain the business operating expenses. Briefly explain the type of assessment that could be issued to Karim by the Director-General of Inland Revenue Board of Malaysia when he ceased his business, and why this assessment is issued.

2. Based on each of the situations below, explain the type of offence, the provision of the offence under Income Tax Act 1967, and penalty (fine/imprisonment) faced by the taxpayers:

1. Aaron submitted a duly completed return for the year of assessment 2019 on his own. He had declared business income from selling imported gift items and souvenirs. It was discovered during a tax audit that he had not declared his income from the rental business that he has been carrying on for the past 5 (five) years.

2. Ben is a head of accounting department in LHS Sdn Bhd. For the year of assessment 2019, he was instructed by the director of the company (Tan), to reclassify certain entertainment expenses of the company (which are not allowable for income tax purposes) as purchases of goods and service. By doing so, he managed to understate the tax liability of the company by more than RM5,000 for 2019. This was discovered during a tax audit.

3. Chong is a tax agent, appointed by Rinata Sdn Bhd to prepare the tax computation for the company. A detailed statement for "Sundry Expenses" of RM80,000 provided by Rinata Sdn Bhd had clearly indicated that a donation of RM10,000 was included therein. Chong made an immediate request in writing for the receipt, advising the company that only donations made to approved bodies or institutions under section 44(6) would be eligible for deduction. Rinata Sdn Bhd confirmed in a letter that the donation had been made to an approved body and that it was in the process of obtaining the receipt for it. In view of the impending due date for the submission of the return and relying on that confirmation, Chong made the relevant adjustments for the donation in the tax computation. It was discovered during a tax audit that there has been an understatement of the company's tax liability as the donation had been made to a non-approved body, about which the company had neglected to inform Chong as the tax agent subsequently.

4. Fatt, a graduate of Lim Kok Wing University, founded a startup business in Selangor after he graduated. He has been earning a steady income from his business venture in 2019.
