The Bureau of Labor Statistics published its February jobs report on March 9. Here is a link to their press release:

https://www.bls.gov/news.release/empsit.nr0.htm

Your job is the following. Read the press release and incorporate into a writing assignment containing the following elements:

Short run labor market

Is this job report a positive or negative one? How does this report fit into the trends of the last few months? What does it say about the state of the labor market and the economy as a whole? Support your opinion with evidence. Make sure to mention the number of jobs created and the unemployment rate. Include any other statistics that support your position, and explain how they do so.

Medium run labor market

You have drawn a conclusion about the state of the labor market and the overall economy. How does this trend of the last few months fit into the performance of the economy over approximately the last 10 years or so? Support your position using evidence, including any relevant statistics.

Long run labor market

The economy and the labor market fluctuate over time (this is the business cycle we have previously read about). But are there any long run trends over the past 20-30 years that have been consistent? What are these trends and what do they imply about the state of the economy in the future? Again, use statistics and evidence to support your view.

question 1

a. What is the effect on a country’s economy of an artificially low exchange rate? Of an artificially high exchange rate?

b. Explain how a company can use forward contracts to eliminate Foreign Exchange risk. What is counter-party risk?

Explain in detail

Section One:

Write a review of “Dirigible Dreams” that answers the following three questions:

1) What was the purpose of the book?

2) Did the author successfully complete the purpose of the book or did he accomplish less than the purpose? Thoroughly explain your positions and reference sections of the book that support your comments.

3) Did you find “Dirigible Dreams” useful in understanding the development of transportation (or not)? Be explicit, offer examples, and tell me what you liked and did not like about the book (and why).

Section Two:

Compare what you learned in “Dirigible Dreams” to the development of another form of transportation. First, identify specific points of comparison, then apply those points of comparison between the development of airships to your chosen “other” form of transportation.

You may choose a form of transportation that was successfully (or unsuccessfully) developed in the past, or a development(s) that is happening today. For example, compare “Dirigible Dreams” to the development of LNG-powered ships.

Given your knowledge of PESTLE, what factors do you think that COVID-19 (Coronavirus) effects? Explain your answer in detail.

2. What are the signs that an employee is stealing? (red flags) Behavior and accounting

3. look for an article of accounting fraud or computer crime and summarize it.  Use the internal control information to explain how they detected it??

DESIGN YOUR OWN EXPERIMENT

As a future scientist, you have the opportunity to show your laboratory skills by designing your own experiment. Below you will be provided an experimental question. Your job will be to physically complete an experiment to test the hypothesis associated with your question. Once again, you must conduct the actual experiment and document it. Use your Experimental Planning Form to guide you through the experiment. Keep in mind the overall goal is to conduct a valid experiment using the scientific method!!!!!

Topic: What is the effect of salt on the boiling temperature of water?

Below are more helpful pointers of details of how to document your experimental process.

Title

This should be short, but describe the experiment.

Problem Statement

What scientific question are you planning to investigate?

Background Information

Write a short paragraph describing some background information that you have learned about the topic of your investigation.

Hypothesis

You will propose a possible outcome for your experiment that includes the data that will support your hypothesis.

Materials List

Make a list of all of the materials you will use to complete your experiment.

Include consumable supplies and lab equipment in your list.

Procedure

This section must be written in a step-by-step numbered format, so that another student who is not in your group can follow it.

You can draw a picture to show how you will set-up your experiment (optional).

SAFETY – List what lab safety equipment you will need.

Data Table

Your data table should include a title, column headings, units (if needed) and a place to record all data from your experiment.

You must show at least three trials of data for your experiment, so be sure to leave room in your data table for all trails.

Conclusion Paragraph 1 –

Your conclusion should state if your data DID support your hypothesis or your data did NOT support your hypothesis and why (use data for support).

Summarize your data in a few sentences.

Paragraph 2 –

Explain what you learned about the problem statement from the experiment.

List some errors you and your partner(s) could have made while conducting the experiment that could affect your results. YOU MAY NOT SAY “NOTHING WENT WRONG” OR “THE EXPERIMENT WENT WELL”. Think here!!!!

Do you think structural unemployment is natural or not? Provide one real and one futuristic (just make up, use your imagination) example for structural unemployment. Explain them.
