1. Product Decisions Under Bottlenecked Operations

   Youngstown Glass Company manufactures three types of safety plate glass: large, medium, and small. All three products have high demand. Thus, Youngstown Glass is able to sell all the safety glass that it can make. The production process includes an autoclave operation, which is a pressurized heat treatment. The autoclave is a A condition that occurs when product demand exceeds production capacity.production bottleneck. Total fixed costs are $200,000 for the company as a whole. In addition, the following information is available about the three products:

   	Large		Medium		Small
   Unit selling price	$94		$281		$232
   Unit variable cost	74		230		204
   Unit contribution margin	$ 20		$ 51		$ 28
   Autoclave hours per unit	2		6		4
   Total process hours per unit	6		12		8
   Budgeted units of production	4,500		4,500		4,500

   a. Determine the contribution margin by glass type and the total company income from operations for the budgeted units of production.

   	Large	Medium	Small	Total
   Units produced
   Revenues	$	$	$	$
   Variable costs
   Contribution margin	$	$	$	$
   Fixed costs
   Income from operations				$

   b. Prepare an analysis showing which product is the most profitable per bottleneck hour. Round the "Unit contribution margin per production bottleneck hour" amounts to the nearest cent.

   	Large	Medium	Small
   Contribution margin	$	$	$
   Autoclave hours per unit
   Unit contribution margin per production bottleneck hour	$	$	$

A simple c program is needed to create encrypt and decode social security numbers. Then a validation must be used to make sure there are no invalid numbers.

**********************************************C PROGRAMMING*********************************************************************************

char social[][12] = {"164-55-0726","948-44-1038","193-74-0274","458-57-2867","093-00-1093","159-56-9731","695-21-2340","753-66-
6482","852-73-4196","648-81-1456","879-61-1829","123-87-0000","000-65-3197","741-85-9632","963-25-7418"};

Create a function that will accept as input a properly formatted social security number.
Then increment each digit by one. If the digit is "9" then make it a "0". Return a properly formatted
social security number.
Then create a function that will do the opposite. This function will take an encoded social security
number and convert it back into an unencrypted social security number. The de-encoded number is
what this function will return.

Create a function to scan all of the patient's social security numbers and detect if any of them are
invalid.
A Social Security Number (SSN) consists of nine digits, commonly written as three fields separated by
hyphens: AAA-GG-SSSS. The first three-digit field is called the "area number". The central, two-digit field
is called the "group number". The final, four-digit field is called the "serial number". Any SSN conforming
to one of the following criteria is an invalid number:

Any field all zeroes (no field of zeroes is ever assigned).
First three digits above 740
If you detect an invalid social security number, print the patient's name, their social security number,
and then either "area number", "group number", or "serial number" to indicate where the problem with
the social security number was detected.

Suppose I need to model a bank which provides loans to different companies. Further suppose that the only companies in my data model are those to whom I am providing loans or have provided loans in the past.

What is the appropriate minimum cardinality for the relationship between LOAN and COMPANY?

Suppose I need to model a credit card company where each customer can receive up to one credit card and each card can be sent to only one address.

What is the appropriate maximum cardinality for the relationship between CUSTOMER and CARD?

Suppose I need to model a university where students can, but do not have to, participate in extra-curricular activities. Each such activity can have zero or more participants.

What is the appropriate minimum cardinality for the relationship between STUDENT and ACTIVITY?

Suppose I need to model a university where students can have up to three majors (i.e., can be part of three departments).

What is the appropriate maximum cardinality for the relationship between STUDENT and DEPARTMENT?

Suppose I need to model a hardware store with varying inventory. That is, not all products will be sold at any given time.

What is the appropriate minimum cardinality for the relationship between STORE and PRODUCT?

You are now working at a clinic and a patient walks in, telling you that they have Type 2 Diabetes. Checking their chart, you realize it’s been over three years since their hemoglobin A1C plasma levels have been tested. You run a quick lab analysis and see that they have a hemoglobin A1C plasma level of 11.5%. Given this information, answer the following questions.

(A) What is A1C and how is it different from regular blood glucose measurements?

(B) How is hemoglobin A1c is formed? What cell does this occur in?

(C) What is GLUT 1 and how does it contribute to hemoglobin A1c production? What kind of process is this and does it require energy? (hint: see Chapter 10, Lipids, Membranes and Cellular Transport)

(D) What does their level of 11.5% tell you about their disease state? How does this compare to the recommended A1C levels (both diabetics and non-diabetics)

(E) At their next visit you realize that your patient’s A1C levels have not changed. What products might be forming in their blood as a result of this, and what are some of the results of having an increase of these products in their body?

Background: Accounting scandals and fraud, both in the United States and internationally, have re-ignited the debate over the current laws, regulation and accounting principles. The relative merits of GAAP, which takes a “rules-based” approach to accounting, versus IFRS, which takes a “principles-based” approach have been under scrutiny. In the last couple of years, the FASB announced that it intends to introduce more principles-based standards to improve general accounting principles and practices.

Organizations have internal control measures to detect fraud. In additions, organizations are subjected to required reporting of financial information to external entities. With that in mind, answer the following items in your initial discussion response:

1. Define fraud and discuss the three factors identified in our textbook that contribute to fraudulent activity.
2. What are some strategies in health care to prevent financial fraud? Provide some details.
3. Identify an example of an organization that has committed fraud. What happened and what were the legal ramifications?

Make sure your initial response contains 175- to 265-words.

APA Formatting: Use citations where appropriate and list references.

George, Kim and Cindy all lost their jobs when the technology start-up they worked for was acquired by another company. After a few weeks of searching for another full-time job, George decided to get back to school to get an LPN certification. In order to finish as soon as possible, George chose not to work while finishing the certification. Kim took a part-time job in retail shortly after losing her job, but she continues to search diligently for full-time work. Cindy searched for a job for the first five weeks after being laid off, but as bills began piling up, she found herself moving into her parents’ basement. She recently gave up looking for work, because she figures that there just aren’t jobs available right now so there is no point looking.

a) Are George, Kim and Cindy unemployed, employed or not in the labor force?

b) Would any of the three be considered a discouraged worker? Which one?

c) How would each contribute to the unemployment rate? State whether u-rate increases, decreases or remains the same.

1.A trolley is hurtling out of control and five people are tied down to the track! You are standing next to a very large man on a footbridge above the track. If you push him in front of the trolley, you will kill him, but save the five people. What would a Utilitarian and a Kantian Deontologist say you should do? What objection might a Kantian Deontologist make against the Utilitarian answer? Make sure you explain the relevant details of each theory.

2.Someone knocks at your door. It's your roommate's ex and she's come to kill him! She asks where he is. You know that your roommate happens to be upstairs sleeping. What would a Kantian and an Aristotelian say about this situation? What objection might an Aristotelian make against the Kantian answer? Make sure to explain the relevant details of each theory.

3.Oh no! You're living in the State of Nature and life is solitary, poor, nasty, brutish, and short! Describe the three features of the State of Nature according to Hobbes and how they contribute to making it undesirable. Then explain what Hobbes thinks you have to do to enter into society.

1) Find a company whose ticker symbol contains your initials. (For example if your initials are: BK, then Bank of New York Mellon (BK) or Barnes and Noble (BKS) or Ambac Financial Group (ABK) would satisfy this requirement). If you cannot find any company with your initials, then use one of your initials (you choose which) twice. So if your initial are: SV, choose a company with either 2 S’s or 2 V’s in the ticker. If there is still no suitable company, then choose any company contained in the Dow Jones Industrial Average. 2) Obtain the financial statements for the three most recent years. Usually, the financial statements are in the company’s annual report, and are on, or can be downloaded from the company’s website, or 3) For the three most recent years, analyze the Du Pont identity for your chosen company. How has ROE changed over this period? How have changes in each component of the Du Pont identity affected ROE over this period? 4) Choose two competitors of the company you chose in parts 1,2 and 3. Analyze the Du Pont identity for the competitors (over the most recent three years). How does your company’s profitability compare to the two competitors? What conclusion, if any, can you make about the condition of your chosen company?

I chose Agilent Technologies but I couldnt post their financial statement here, please go to https://www.agilent.com/about/newsroom/presrel/2017/20nov-gp17023_print.html
