Create an Employee class with five fields: first name, last name, workID, yearStartedWked, and initSalary. It includes constructor(s) and properties to initialize values for all fields.
Create an interface, SalaryCalculate, class that includes two functions: first,CalcYearWorked() function, it takes one parameter (currentyear) and calculates the number of year the worker has been working. The second function, CalcCurSalary() function that calculates the current year salary.
Create a Worker classes that is derived from Employee and SalaryCalculate class.
Create a Manager class that is derived from Worker class.
Write an application that reads the workers and managers information from files (“worker.txt” and “manager.txt”) and then creates the dynamic arrays of objects. Prompt the user for current year and display the workers’ and managers’ current information in separate groups: first and last name, ID, the year he/she has been working, and current salary.

The internal characteristics of the organization make up
critical sources for success (Barney,
1991). Increasing attention has been paid to identifying what
characteristics are vital to
organizational success and how they exert their influence on
organizational outcomes. Internal
organizational context focuses on broad and relatively stable
categories of organizational
characteristics such as structure, culture, and power and political
characteristics (Pettigrew,
1979). They constitute an environment where organizational
activities take place. There has been
a large volume of studies that examine how the fit between
organizational context and
organizational strategy explains variances in organizational
performance (Daft, 1995 and
Robbins, 1990). What is lacking in existing literature, though, is
an understanding of the
intervening mechanism that explains the paths of the influence from
organizational context and
strategy to organizational effectiveness.
Knowledge management plays a potentially mediating role in
connecting organizational context
and strategy with organizational effectiveness. Successful
knowledge management is believed to
have the potential of enhancing an organization's
competitive advantage, customer focus,
employee relations and development, innovation, and lower costs
(Skyrme and Arnindon, 1997).
In turn, knowledge management is context-specific, because context
determines who participate
and how they participate in the knowledge management process
(Nonaka et al., 2000).
Knowledge management could serve as one of the intervening
mechanisms through which
organizational context influences organizational effectiveness.
However, the mediating role of
knowledge management has not been adequately investigated.
Exploration of its potential role as
a mediating factor would provide better understanding of how to
leverage it to achieve desirable
organizational goals. This study sets out to do that.
The purpose of this study is to examine the possible mediating
effect of knowledge management
on the relationship between organizational culture, structure,
strategy and organizational
effectiveness. This study attempts to detect and explain one of the
mechanisms through which
organizational contextual and strategic factors are mobilized to
achieve higher levels of
organizational effectiveness.

Critical Thinking
The global marketplace has witnessed an increased pressure from customers and competitors in manufacturing as well as service sector (Basu, 2001; George, 2002). Due to the rapidly changing global marketplace only those companies will be able to survive that will deliver products of good quality at cheaper rate and to achieve their goal companies try to improve performance by focusing on cost cutting, increasing productivity levels, quality and guaranteeing deliveries in order to satisfy customers (Raouf, 1994).
Increased global competition leads the industry to increasing efficiency by means of economies of scale and internal specialization so as to meet market conditions in terms of flexibility, delivery performance and quality (Yamashina, 1995). The changes in the present competitive business environment are characterized by profound competition on the supply side and keen indecisive in customer requirements on the demand side. These changes have left their distinctive marks on the different aspect of the manufacturing organizations (Gomes et al., 2006). With this increasing global economy, cost effective manufacturing has become a requirement to remain competitive.
To meet all the challenges organizations try to introduce different manufacturing and supply techniques. Management of organizations devotes its efforts to reduce the manufacturing costs and to improve the quality of product. To achieve this goal, different manufacturing and supply techniques have been employed. The last quarter of the 20th century witnessed the adoption of world-class, lean and integrated manufacturing strategies that have drastically changed the way manufacturing firm’s leads to improvement of manufacturing performance (Fullerton and McWatters, 2002).

Suppose that you are part of the Management team at Porsche. Suppose that it is the end of December 2019 and a novel coronavirus that causes a respiratory illness was identified in Wuhan City, Hubei Province, China. The illness was reported to the World Health Organization and there is heightened uncertainty around the Globe. You (as part of the management team) are reviewing Porsche’s hedging strategy for the cash flows it expects to obtain from vehicle sales in North America during the calendar year 2020. Assume that Porsche’s management entertains three scenarios:
Scenario 1 (Expected): The expected volume of North American sales in 2020 is 35,000 vehicles.
Scenario 2 (Pandemic): The low-sales scenario is 50% lower than the expected sales volume.
Scenario 3 (High Growth): The high-sales scenario is 20% higher than the expected sales volume.
Assume, in each scenario, that the average sales price per vehicle is $85,000 and that all sales are realised at the end of December 2020. All variable costs incurred by producing an additional vehicle to be sold in North America in 2020 are billed in euros (€) and amount to €55,000 per vehicle. Shipping an additional vehicle to be sold in North America in 2020 are billed in € and amount to €3,000 per vehicle.
The current spot exchange rate is (bid-ask) $1.11/€ - $1.12/€ and forward bid-ask is $1.18/€ - $1.185/€. The option premium is €0.025, and option strike price is €0.922. Your finance team made the following forecasts about the exchange rates at the end of December 2020:
• bid-ask will be $1.45/€ - $1.465/€ if the investors (and speculators) consider the euro (€) a safe haven currency during the pandemic.
• bid-ask will be $0.88/€-$0.90/€ if the investors (and speculators) consider the U.S. dollar ($) a safe haven currency during the pandemic
5. Assume that the Scenario 2 (Pandemic) took place in 2020 and the U.S. dollar became a safe haven currency during the pandemic. What are your cash flows (profits) if you did not hedge, hedged using forward contracts, and hedged using option contracts?
6. Based on the calculations in Part B, do you believe that it is a good policy to hedge Porsche’s currency exposure? Why?

“Lactose repressor protein (LacI) utilizes an allosteric mechanism to regulate transcription in E. coli, and the transition between inducer- and operator-bound states has been simulated by targeted molecular dynamics (TMD). The side chains of amino acids 149 and 193 interact and were predicted by TMD simulation to play a critical role in the early stages of the LacI conformational change. D149 contacts IPTG directly, and variations at this site provide the opportunity to dissect its role in inducer binding and signal transduction. Single mutants at D149 or S193 exhibit minimal change in operator binding, and alterations in inducer binding parallel changes in operator release, indicating normal allosteric response. The observation that the double mutant D149A/S193A exhibits wild-type properties excludes the requirement for inter-residue hydrogen bond formation in the allosteric response. The double mutant D149C/S193C purified from cell extracts shows decreased sensitivity to inducer binding, while retaining wild-type binding affinities and kinetic constants for both operator and inducer. By manipulating cysteine oxidation, we show that the more reduced state of D149C/ S193C responds to inducer more similarly to wild-type protein, whereas the more oxidized state displays diminished inducer sensitivity. These features of D149C/S193C indicate that the novel disulfide bond formed in this mutant impedes the allosteric transition, consistent with the role of this
region predicted by TMD simulation. Together, these results establish the requirement for flexibility of spatial relationship between D149 and S193 rather than a specific D149-S193 interaction in the LacI allosteric response to inducer.” Biochemistry 48:4988.

Analyze each stress situation by applying the components of the ABC-X Model. (A=Stressor, the thing that's causing the stress, life events that result in or require a family to change, B=Resources, things that can help them take care of the stress, internal or external and range from tangible (money, education/degrees earned) to intangible (social support systems), C=Perception, how the family is perceiving the stress, (1) How does the family view or define the problem? and (2) What is their understanding of the situation that resulted in the problem?, X=Crisis, when a family cannot put the stress event into perspective in a way that lets them manage it effectively)
SCENARIO #2—Janszen-Miller Family Chad and Jeff have been in a monogamous relationship for the past seven years. Chad is working toward his goal of being an executive for a Fortune 500 company. While he’s a few years away from actually realizing his goal, he makes enough to support himself, Jeff, and their children. Jeff has been a “stay-at-home parent” who cares for his son and Chad’s daughter while working on a science fiction novel—his lifetime goal. The men and their children have always been healthy—no one has ever been afflicted with more than a cold. Jeff’s son, Christopher, was recently diagnosed with Hodgkin’s Disease. He will require extensive medical care. Chad and Jeff are not sure what they’re going to do—the medical procedures are expensive and Chad’s health benefits cannot assist Jeff or his son.
Be sure to identify the A, B, C & X in each scenario
In some of the descriptions, it may not be clear as there could be multiple factors influencing the family. You can create "hypothetical" explanations for the possible A, B, C & X.
Discuss how communication can contribute to the reduction or resolution of the stressful situation experienced in each of the scenarios.
What recommendations would you offer to family members to resolve the impact of the stress? (not really Psychology but it's the closest subject)
