Topic: Increasing Suicide Rate

Just In one week, two great celebrities took their own lives without any explainable reasons that we may know about, first the designer Kate Spade and then the chef and television host on CNN Anthony Bourdain, these are people in our society who we may not think can commit such an act. What is going on? This is an escalating crisis that needs an attention. According to the New York Times; the study from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention showed that some parts of the country have been hit especially hard, state like Montana has the highest rate in the nation, especially among veterans by 20 percent. They want us to believe that one of the main reason for suicide is because of non-gun control, but this is not about gun control, it is about people getting help when they need it. Our governments; federal, states, counties, and community leaders need to do more by getting involve in preventing this issue or else it will become an epidemic. According to Feud, People are fully aware of the forces affecting the behavior; (Weiten p. 7) the unconscious. It is because of the unconscious behavior of mankind, that’s why we have these problems and some people know that they need help mentally, but they can’t get it because of no resources.

Researchers in the corporate office of an airline wonder if there is a significant difference between the cost of a flight on Priceline.com vs. the airline's own website. A random sample of 24 flights were tracked on Priceline and the airline's website and the average difference between the vendors was $2.971 with a standard deviation of $9.9905. The 99% confidence paired-t interval for price (Priceline - Airline Site) was (-2.754, 8.696). Which of the following is the appropriate interpretation?

QUESTION ONE

1. We add the demands of private goods horizontally but add the demands of public goods vertically when determining the associated marginal benefit to society. Why do we do this, and why are the procedures different for public and private goods?                              [6 Marks]
2. Individual A’s demand for Bread (a private good) is
   1. Q = 21 - 6P
   2. and Individual B’s demand is

Mandy is a 10-year-old female with cystic fibrosis who weighs 62 pounds and is 51 inches tall and is considered low active.

1-Calculate Mandy’s estimated energy requirement given her DRI and medical condition using the following information (5 points) EER for Girls 9 through 18 Years EER = 135.3 – (30.8 ´ age [y]) + PA ´ (10.0 ´ weight [kg] + 934 ´ height [m]) + 25 kcal PA = 1.00 if PAL is estimated to be ≥ 1.0 < 1.4 (sedentary) PA = 1.13 if PAL is estimated to be ≥ 1.4 < 1.6 (low active) PA = 1.26 if PAL is estimated to be ≥ 1.6 < 1.9 (active) PA = 1.42 if PAL is estimated to be ≥ 1.9 < 2.5 (very active)

2-Calculate Mandy’s protein requirement given her DRI and medical condition (5 points). EER DRI Table

3-The estimated calorie requirement for an individual with cystic fibrosis is two to four times the usual recommendation. How would one know the appropriate calorie level to recommend initially? (5 points)

4-Research nutrition recommendations for cystic fibrosis that can assist an individual with meeting her high calorie and protein requirements (i.e., use the text and reputable websites). What advice could you provide to a patient?

Budget Question:  

Gutierrez Company, a publicly held corporation, operates a regional chain of large drugstores. Each drugstore is operated by a general manager and a controller. The general manager is responsible for the day-to-day operations of the store, while the controller is responsible for the budget and other financial tasks. The general manager, Tracie Kappan, has been at Gutierrez Company for several years. Employee turnover is high at Gutierrez Company, just as it is in the retail industry in general. Kappan just hired a new controller, Min Yang.

Yang was asked to prepare the master budget. Each retail location prepares its master budget once a year and then submits that budget to company headquarters for approval. Once approved by headquarters, the master budget is used to evaluate the store’s performance. These performance evaluations directly affect the managers’ bonuses and whether additional company funds are invested in that location.

When Yang was almost done preparing the budget, Kappan instructed him to increase the amounts budgeted for labor and supplies by 20%. When asked why, Kappan responded that this budgetary cushion gives store management flexibility in running the store. For example, because company headquarters tightly controls operating funds and capital improvement funds, any extra money budgeted for labor and supplies can be used to replace store furnishings or to pay bonuses to help to retain good employees. She explains that the chance of getting extra funds from company headquarters is not good; this “cushion” is usually the only opportunity to replace store décor or to pay bonuses to key employees. Kappan also needs extra funds occasionally to make “under the table” payments to employees as incentives to work extra hours or to keep them from leaving for a higher-paying job.

Yang feels conflicted. He is eager to please Kappan, and he is wondering what he should do in this situation.

1. Who are the stakeholders in the scenario?

2. Who is responsible for the situation Min Yang is in? The Company or the General Manager? Why do you think that?

3. What would do if you were Min Yang?
