Information: Thomas Perdue had built up a successful development company. When he became city commissioner, everyone said it was good to have a businessperson on the commission. They said businesspeople know how to control costs and make sound economic decisions, and Thomas could help the city tighten its belt. One of his first projects was an analysis of the human resources department. He claimed that if the whole function was outsourced, it would save the taxpayers money. A year later, after painful layoffs and a bumpy transition, the new contractor, NewSoft, was in place. Two years later, NewSoft’s billing rates had steadily increased, and there were complaints about service. After five years, the supposed savings had vanished, and Thomas had moved on to state government, his campaigns fueled by “generous” campaign contributions from companies like NewSoft. Requirement: After reading all differential analysis resources and viewing the videos, answer the following question 2 questions in your own words, using complete sentence structure and grammar. Please use citations if applicable. The attached rubric displays grading criteria. For this specific assignment, feedback will be given 24 hours after the due date. There is one attempt on this assignment. This assignment should be submitted based on individual knowledge and is not group based. Questions 1.Although this case differs from “fraud” in the usual sense, describe the conflict of interest in this case. Who benefitted, and who did not?. 2.When making business decisions of this sort, some factors are quantitative, and some are qualitative factors. Discuss some of the qualitative factors related to this case.

Tough-Built Corporation produces specialized truck body
components, specializing in hydraulic lifts for dump trucks.
Founded 35 years ago by George Halloway, the firm now employs 150
workers and has annual sales of over $10 million. George operates
the firm in a highly centralized way, and retains control over all
changes in operations. He is a regular visitor to the production
area, which helps him "keep his finger on the pulse of the
firm."
Although George Halloway is now 67 years old, he has no apparent
management successor, and has always hand-picked his department
heads and staff personnel. He has been generous to those who worked
for him, paying substantial bonuses each year to the employees
based on his personal evaluation of each worker. Just six weeks
ago, a heart attack convinced George to consider retirement, and he
decided to sell the firm to his employees. You are assigned the
task of recommending a set of strategic performance measures for
the firm, assuming that the new worker management wants to operate
as a decentralized firm.
Required:
What major management problems do you foresee in the transition

Dear Colleague,
Earlier today I built my seventh website using HTML5, CSS3, and Bootstrap4. Bootstrap seems amazing, but it never did what it should do – make my website look better. Also, my page should have a blue theme that was provided in the CSS folder. This also didn’t work.
My website is supposed to look like what is shown in Figure 1 (see below). Someone told me that there are exactly 10 errors on index.html, 10 errors on contact.html, and 10 errors on events.html. Yes, 30 errors total! Can you help me find all of the errors?
Hint: You should not add ANY LINES to the code. There
will never be more than one error per line number.

<h2>Try Boro Events</h2>
<p>The Try Boro Kids Races Series is a non-profit
organization that puts on unique endurance vents to help get kids
active. Founded in 2009 with one triathlon. This event was hosted
by Murfreesboro Parks and Recreation and their SportsCom facility.
That first year saw 175 kids swim, bike, and run and since then the
series has hosted 17 events. For the past 4 years, the series has
hosted a 2.5K/5K Run in May, a triathlon in August, and a trail in
October. </p>
<p>In 2016, the series is partnering with the
Better Boro Project, which is part of an initiative by the city of
Murfreesboro to promote health and fitness. As part of this
initiative, the Try Boro Kids Race Series will host the clinics in
April, 2.5K/5K Run in May, and the trail run in October. The series
will also provide support for other events such as Read to Succeed
and Murph's Fun Run.</p>

HELP LIST AND FIND THE 10 ERRORS
In: Computer Science
Consider the following situation as if you were Ian.
Ian was a senior analyst at a major hotel company. Although Ian worked mostly in corporate headquarters, he would occasionally travel to the field where he met with front-line employees and learned what was on their minds.
On a trip to Portland, Ian had the chance to speak with two people working at the front desk about what it was like to work at the hotel. Daniel, the younger of the two had joined the staff recently; Ellen, the other employee (and Daniel’s supervisor), had been with the company for almost 15 years. Both employees seemed particularly interested in talking with Ian because they rarely got a chance to talk directly to anyone from headquarters.
As the three discussed changes in the hospitality industry, Ellen and Daniel complained about their company’s aggressive cost control initiatives, spearheaded by the charismatic but frugal CEO, whose policies were occasionally unpopular. After a few more minutes of conversation, Ellen casually said, “The CEO is so tight with a buck, I wonder if he is Jewish.”
As a Jewish person, Ian did not know how to react. He had never actually experienced anything like this before, especially in a professional setting. Ian’s instinct was not to be combative or hostile, but he felt a bit like a deer caught in the headlights. Daniel looked a little surprised at his supervisor’s remark, but, laughing, he quickly changed the subject. Smiling, Ian made an excuse to end or discussion and walk away.
The next day Ian woke up still bothered by Ellen’s remark. While checking out, he saw Daniel at the front desk. Ian mentioned to him that he may want to tell his supervisor to watch her remarks about other peoples’ ethnicity, to which Daniel replied, “I know what you mean because I am Puerto Rican, but I think that she meant it as a joke.” Ian could see that Daniel just wanted to smooth the issue over.
On the ride to the airport, Ian kept thinking about what he might do. Should he report Ellen to Human Resources? The company had a process in place for such matters, but he was worried. Ian did not know who he was dealing with; maybe Ellen would retaliate if he said something, especially since she would know who filed the complaint. Plus, Ian was not sure what the consequences would be – he didn’t want to get her fired. Ian only wanted Ellen to know how offensive the comments were.
As a team, consider what steps Ian should take.
What are the concerns facing Ian?

Quality Control and the Boeing 787
Source: McCartney, Scott. "How to Inspect Every Piece of a Widebody Airplane." http://www.cetusnews.com/life/How-to-Inspect-Every-Piece-of-a-Widebody-Airplane.B1xPm2I4t-.html, posted
8/30/2017.
Imagine you're buying a $270 million car. You'd want to kick the tires pretty hard. That's what airlines do with new airplanes. Delivering one widebody airplane is a big
deallong dash—each
plane has a list price roughly the cost of a high-rise hotel.
Carriers like American Airlines station their own engineers at Boeing factories to watch their flying machines get built and check parts as they arrive. Then they send flight attendants, mechanics and pilots for what are called shakedown inspections.
"The rubber meets the road here," says an American manager, as he begins checking a brand new Boeing 787. "It's inspected and it's inspected and it's inspected. And yet we still find things." American is taking delivery of 57 new planes this year. Boeing does its own testing, but buyers do their own extra
inspectionlong dash—and
note an average of 140 items on a plane's punchlist.
Five flight attendants, a couple of mechanical experts and an American test pilot attack the 285-passenger plane. All the doors and panels are opened for inspection. Flight attendants shake each seat violently, grab the headrest and pull it up and jerk the cord on each entertainment controller. They test power ports, USB ports, audio jacks and the entertainment system. They open all tray tables, turn all lights on and off. They recline each seat with knee-knocking force. They flush all the toilets, blow fake smoke into smoke alarms, make sure all prerecorded emergency messages sound when required.
Inside the cockpit, an American test pilot flies the jet to its limits, making sure alarms sound when he increases air speed or slows the plane down to stall speed. He turns it sharply until "bank angle" warnings sound. Each engine gets shut down and restarted in the air. Every backup and emergency system is put into use to make sure it works.
Critical Thinking Questions
1. Why do airlines feel the need to make quality inspections?
A. The $270 million price tag.
B. Pilots like to check emergency systems.
C. Manufacturers sometimes miss errors.
D. All of the above.
2. Who participates in shakedown inspections?
A. Flight attendants only.
B. Boeing engineers.
C. Top management from the airline buying the plane.
D. Test pilots and other company representatives.
3. Flight attendants test the 787s
A. exterior paint.
B. seats, entertainment systems, and power parts.
C. air speed.
D. legroom.
4. Inspection on a commercial jet takes place
A. before delivery to the customer.
B. during the first scheduled flight.
C. before the contract is signed.
D. at the part supplier's shipping dock.

The following graph shows the supply of a good

For each of the regions, use the midpoint method to identify whether the supply of this good is elastic or inelastic.
Elastic Inelastic Region
Between Y and Z
Between W and X
True or False: For high levels of quantity supplied where firms have reached near maximum capacity, supply becomes more elastic because firms may need to invest in additional capital in order to further increase production.
In: Economics
Match each term with its definition.
a sequence of DNA located upstream of a gene that signals the start of transcription
a regulatory protein that blocks transcription by binding to the operator site
an element that disrupts the signal between enhancers and promoters
a gene that controls the expression of one or more genes by promoting or inhibiting transcription
a molecule that activates mRNA synthesis by disabling the protein that prevents transcription a short sequence of DNA located near the promoter region that is recognized by a repressor protein
In: Biology
True or False
1) in a population regression model, we assume the errors are independent of each other and normally distributed with constant variance
2) when we apply the ordinary least squares to estimate the slope and intercept of a linear model, the sum of all the residuals can be less than or greater than zero
3) if SSE is near zero in a regression, the statistician will conclude that the proposed model probably has too poor a fit to be useful
