Jose Rivera is a real estate entrepreneur. Earlier in his professional life, Jose was a successful executive with Mattel but he resigned in a desire to pursue other opportunities that would allow him to be his own boss. Today, Jose and his eldest son, Jorge, own and manage several large apartment buildings in Queens. The real estate business has been so successful that Jose owns home sin both New York city and the Hamptons and a 40-foot yacht, which is moored near his summer home. Jose’s two youngest children are enrolled in private schools and Jose plans to send them to exclusive and expensive private colleges, like the one their brother Jorge attended. Jose has numerous investments in addition to the real estate properties, which when the time is right, can be quickly converted into cash for college expenses.
Despite his real estate success, Jose has long desired to get back into the toy business and is now in the process of purchasing Toy Builder, a small establishment that manufactures electronic toy components for a large, nationally known manufacturer of toys and electronic games.   Jose looks forward to adding Toy Builder to his assets, as he hopes to utilize some of his prior Mattel experience to make the company even more successful. The small Toy Builder factory is in New Jersey and utilizes machinery that is highly specialized. New employees receive an orientation from the human resource department, as well as training in manufacturing processes and safety regulations.

Which form of ownership should Jose select for Toy Builder (e.g. sole proprietorship, partnership, corporation or some other structure) and why? It is wise to identify the advantages and disadvantages of whatever structure you select.

NOTE – Toy Builder is a fictitious company

Thank you!!!

Clinical Trial Between 2004 and 2007, the National Institutes of Health conducted a STEP vaccine clinical trial—Phase IIB "test-ofconcept" study. The STEP study is the name of a clinical trial to test an experimental human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) vaccine. The STEP study enrolled 3,000 participants at sites in Australia, Brazil, Canada, the Dominican Republic, Haiti, Jamaica, Peru, Puerto Rico, and the United States. The study was designed to test an HIV vaccine, which aimed to stimulate production of immune system T-cells that can kill HIV-infected cells. Based on its first evaluation of vaccine efficacy, the findings showed there were 24 cases of HIV infection among the 741 volunteers who received at least one dose of the investigational vaccine compared with 21 cases of HIV infection among the 762 volunteers who were vaccinated with the placebo. In volunteers who received at least two vaccinations, there were 19 cases of HIV infection among the 672 volunteers who received the investigational vaccine and 11 instances of HIV infection among the 691 volunteers who received placebo. The study investigators of the vaccine trials have decided to cease immunizations and are contacting study volunteers to inform them of the developments.

Using Social Media to Tell the Story of TOMS TOMS offers more than a comfortable and trendy pair of shoes. It is about status and a story to tell. Mycoskie realised the power of the TOMS story since the early days of the company and has focused on it ever since. Mycoskie wrote in his book, acknowledging Kendall Haven, who authored Super Simple Storytelling: "Human minds rely on stories and story architecture as the primary road map for understanding, making sense of, remembering, and planning our lives - as well as the countless experiences and narratives we encounter along the way." He added that smart, future-oriented companies use this ancient impulse in new ways, by telling stories that people can watch on YouTube and share on Facebook. He quickly realised the strength of social and digital media to convey his story by saying: "People are no longer all listening to or watching the same few radio or TV stations each week - they're following their own carefully curated Twitter feeds, commenting on and creating blogs, channel surfing among more than 500 TV stations, watching Hulu on laptops, clicking on YouTube, reading Kindles and Nooks, and surfing on iPads." In 2009, Mycoskie partnered with AT&T by filming a commercial, which ran throughout 2009 and was an enormous success. The commercial profiled TOMS as a for-profit company that donates one pair of shoes to a child in need for every pair purchased, and founder Blake who uses his AT&T BlackBerry to conduct business from around the world. Lots of people tweeted about the commercial creating awareness about TOMS and AT&T, and support for the TOMS business model. 1- Discuss in your opinion, does business responsible for its society wellbeing or just making profit? Why? 2- How TOMS shoes utilizes the CSR in its marketing activities?

1. Jupiter recently introduced her cousin Letecia to one of her colleagues working for the Avocado Park Development Council, whose name is Scheherazade. Letecia has decided to ask Scheherazade out on a date and her goats have jumped in to help. They don’t really understand human romantic customs, but they reason that humans base most of their behavior on money, so they want to start by estimating how much Letecia should expect to spend on a date. They collect a random sample of 52 first dates from residents of Avocado Park and ask how much money the dater spent (they discarded responses of zero as unhelpful).
