Marques (2010) said “Organizational communication has demonstrated to be a crucial aspect in the success rate of any type of organization, whether for-profit or non-profit, business or academic based” (p. 56).

Is your current or former organization successful? Does the communication in your organization (current or former) reflect the level of success, or lack thereof? What can leadership do to ensure there is quality communication in organizations?

Annual and Average Returns for Stocks, Bonds, and T-Bills, 1950 to 2015.

You have a portfolio with an asset allocation of 58 percent stocks, 30 percent long-term Treasury bonds, and 12 percent T-bills. Use these weights and the returns given in the above table to compute the return of the portfolio in the year 2010 and each year since. Then compute the average annual return and standard deviation of the portfolio. (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answers to 2 decimal places.)

1. In 1980 France had a GDP of $325 billion francs and a population of 11.78 million. In 1980 the exchange rate was 1 US dollar was equal to 1.67 francs.

Consider the market for onions in India during a two month period (Dec 2010 - Jan 2011). The average price was running around Rs 30 in the first week of Dec 2010 and shot to above Rs 50 by the fourth week of December. The average price level usually hovers around Rs 15. ​Consider that the events were such that both the demand and the supply of onion in India were affected during the two-month period.

Supply Side -India largest producer of onions and government had been supporting aggressive export policies -Highly perishable and lack proper storage facilities (most farmers bring onions to market and unload entire stock within a month of harvest) -Crop is susceptible to disease and pests which can ruin the crop (fungal disease impacted the crop in 2010) -Crop is sensitive to weather (extended monsoon in 2010)

Demand Side -Consumers use onions daily regardless of income -Not many close substitutes and considered to be almost an essential item -Population growing -December-January is when people get married in India as well as seasonal celebrations increasing demand for onions and families stocking up in anticipation

What possible general combination(s) of changes in demand and supply would necessarily lead to an increase in the price of onions? Support your discussion by stating the average price during the two-month period.
