In 2018, a cold front in Barbados increased both the demand for water heaters and gasolines. The usage of gasoline was 581 tonnes, an increase from 499 tonnes in the previous year. The Petroleum Company of Barbados advised Government officials that demand could outweigh supply and asked companies to increase the supply. They also asked major gasoline users, such as power plants, to reduce demand.
i. Illustrate the effect of the cold front on the demand for gasoline using a demand curve diagram over the two years. [5 marks]
ii. Assuming the Petroleum Company of Barbados did not issue a directive for an increase in supply and a decrease in demand, explain the problem that would exist in the economy and how would this be corrected over time. [3 marks]
iii. Illustrate the effect of major gasoline suppliers increasing supply as well as users reducing their demand. [5 marks]

In her book, What Great Brands Do, Denise Yohn describes seven brand building principles that power great brands.
In a paper no longer than 8 pages describe how each principle applies to a company where you have worked OR (if you are not employed) a company you wish to work for in the future. Talk about how the company has used the principles (if that is true) and how they can/should use (or not use) the principles in the future. Itās alright to say they havenāt used the principle and you donāt think they need to use it going forward, but you need to explain your reasoning for stating that. You need to be very specific as to what you are suggesting. Saying āthey need to carry out this principle by increasing their advertisingā is not sufficient. You need to talk specifically about what type of advertising and why and what the message should be to accomplish the objective.
The paper should be a MS Word document 5-8 double-spaced pages

b) In John Grishamās novel, āA Painted Houseā, the 7-year old Luke has the following thoughts: ..āIf I told him about Hank, I knew exactly what would happen. Heād march me down the front yard and weād have a confrontation⦠Hank would misjudge his opponent, and before long the stick would come into playā¦.And weād be left short-handed. Iād be expected to pick even more cotton. So I didnāt say a word.ā Luke understands the need to choose the best strategy (in our class context, Game Theory), since heād like to avoid doing more arduous labor than would otherwise be required of him. As a young child, you probably went through a similar train of thought that led you not to do something that would have been the morally correct thing to do. Give one example.
