Please review the following scenario and place yourself in the position of the new Human Resource Manager for Acme Manufacturing. Once you understand the circumstances of the problems in this organization, please respond to the questions that the General Manager has posed.

Scenario: You just started work as the new Human Resources Manager for Acme Manufacturing, a Fortune 1,000 company. The job was vacant for 6 months prior to your hiring. You have wondered about this, especially since reading about employee harassment incidents and fights recently in the news.

The General Manager (GM) calls you into his office the minute you arrive. He shuts the door after saying a quick word of welcome and begins to tell you about an incident that happened last week that needs your immediate attention. The company's manufacturing operation runs three shifts of production workers so that the plant is operating 24/7. Over the past 6 months, hostilities have arisen between employees on the third and first shifts. What started out as jeering and criticisms by the first shift, claiming they have to clean up the mess and complete all of the work left undone by the third shift, has escalated to physical confrontations and altercations. Although the GM says that aggressive bantering back and forth is common for shift workers in manufacturing, he admits that he is worried about further violent escalation. The GM says he needs your help.

• Where do you think that this evaluation should begin? In your reply, explain your reasoning.
• Explain the different levels of disciplinary actions that will be used for the Acme Manufacturing Company. Your reply should include the levels of discipline and 1 example of a disciplinary action for each level.
• How would you determine the disciplinary action appropriate for the employees involved in this scenario? Your response should include your reasoning.
• Why would you draft policies and procedures associated with disciplinary actions for the workplace? Provide a minimum of 2 reasons in your response.
• How would you ensure that the entire workforce is trained on these new policies and procedures? Provide 1 example in your response.

Write a 5–7-page memo to the GM that provides your responses to his questions above. Be sure to cite any references used in proper APA format.

Kaneko has two groups. She randomly assigns subjects to her two groups. She has one group read a news article about the importance of a public speaking classes to one’s ability to get a job, while the other group reads a news article about a recent college football game that took place at her university. Then she asks both groups to rate how important they believe a public speaking class is to one’s ability to get a job(0-50). She thinks the groups will be different but does not make a specific prediction about the direction of the difference. She wants to use α = .01.

Can someone send me a screen shot of how to input this into SPSS data and variable view to obtain the information provided below?

Question 1

The nominal scale of measurement is used to measure academic program in this example because data collected for the students is nothing but the names of their major subjects or classes and their status of mood whether they are nervous or excited.

Question 2

The nominal scale of measurement is used to measure feeling about PSY 3002 because the feeling is explained by two categories such as nervous and excited.

Question 3

This scenario required a Chi-square test of independence between two categorical variables. For this scenario, two categories are given as major subject and feeling. Here, we have to check the hypothesis whether the two categorical variables major subject of student and feeling of a student are independent of each other or not.

Question 4

For this scenario, the null and alternative hypotheses are given as below:

Null hypothesis: H₀: The two categorical variables major subject of student and the feeling of the student are independent of each other.

Alternative hypothesis: H_a: The two categorical variables major subject of student and feeling of student are not independent from each other.

We can also write these hypotheses as below:

Null hypothesis: H₀: There is no any relationship between two categorical variables such as major subject of student and feeling of student.

Alternative hypothesis: H_a: There is a relationship between the two categorical variables such as major subject of student and feeling of student.

Question 5

The Chi square test statistic is given as 16.94235589.

Question 6

Number of rows = r = 2

Number of columns = c = 2

Degrees of freedom = (r – 1)*(c – 1) = (2 – 1)*(2 – 1) = 1*1 = 1

Degrees of freedom = 1

Question 7

P-value = 0.0000385

(by using Chi square table or excel)

Question 8

Reject the null hypothesis because p-value is less than alpha value 0.05.

Question 9

Yes, results are statistically significant because p-value for this test is given as 0.0000385 which is less than alpha value 0.05.

Question 10

There is sufficient evidence to conclude that there is a relationship between the two categorical variables such as major subject of student and feeling of student.

There is sufficient evidence to conclude that two categorical variables major subject of student and feeling of student are not independent from each other.

Dr. Alyx Hemmings is employed by Mesa Dental. Mesa Dental recently installed a computerized job-order costing system to help monitor the cost of its services. Each patient is assigned a job number when he or she checks in with the receptionist. The receptionist-bookkeeper notes the time the patient enters the treatment area and when the patient leaves the area. This difference between the entry and exit times is the number of patient hours used and the direct labor time assigned to the dental assistant. (A dental assistant is constantly with the patient.) The direct labor time assigned to the dentist is 50 percent of the patient hours. (The dentist typically splits her time between two patients.)

The chart filled out by the dental assistant provides additional data that is entered into the computer. For example, the chart contains service codes that identify the nature of the treatment, such as whether the patient received a crown, a filling, or a root canal. The chart not only identifies the type of service but its level as well. For example, if a patient receives a filling, the dental assistant indicates (by a service-level code) whether the filling was one, two, three, or four surfaces. The service and service-level codes are used to determine the rate to be charged to the patient. The costs of providing different services and their levels also vary.

Costs assignable to a patient consist of materials, labor, and overhead. The types of materials used—and the quantity—are identified by the assistant and entered into the computer by the bookkeeper. Material prices are kept on file and accessed to provide the necessary cost information. Overhead is applied on the basis of patient hours. The rate used by Mesa Dental is $32 per patient hour. Direct labor cost is also computed using patient hours and the wage rates of the direct laborers. Dr. Hemmings is paid an average of $60 per hour for her services. Dental assistants are paid an average of $20 per hour. Given the treatment time, the software program calculates and assigns the labor cost for the dentist and her assistant; overhead cost is also assigned using the treatment time and the overhead rate.

The overhead rate does not include a charge for any X-rays. The X-Ray Department is separate from dental services; X-rays are billed and costed separately. The cost of an X-ray is $12 per film; the patient is charged $15 per film. If cleaning services are required, cleaning labor costs $35 per patient hour.

Glen Johnson, a patient (Job 267), spent 30 minutes in the treatment area and had a two-surface filling. He received two Novocaine shots and used three ampules of amalgam. The cost of the shots was $14 ($7 each). The cost of the amalgam was $6 per ampule. Other direct materials used are insignificant in amount and are included in the overhead rate. The rate charged to the patient for a two-surface filling is $110. One X-ray was taken.

Required:

1. Prepare a job-order cost sheet for Glen Johnson. If required, round your answers to the nearest cent. If an answer box does not require an entry, leave it blank.

What is the cost for providing a two-surface filling?
$_____

What is the gross profit earned?
$____

2. Suppose that the patient time and associated patient charges are given for the following fillings:

	1-Surface	2-Surface	3-Surface	4-Surface
Time	20 minutes	30 minutes	40 minutes	50 minutes
Charge	$90	$110	$150	$175

Compute the cost for each filling and the gross profit for each type of filling. Assume that the cost of Novocaine is $14 for all fillings. Ampules of amalgam start at two and increase by one for each additional surface. Assume also that only one X-ray film is needed for all four cases. When required, round intermediate calculations and final answers to the nearest cent.

Type	Total Cost per Filling	Gross Profit per Filling
1-Surface	$____	$____
2-Surface	$____	$____
3-Surface	$____	$____
4-Surface	$____	$____

Write a recursive function named multiply that takes two positive integers as parameters and returns the product of those two numbers (the result from multiplying them together). Your program should not use multiplication - it should find the result by using only addition. To get your thinking on the right track:

7 * 4 = 7 + (7 * 3)

7 * 3 = 7 + (7 * 2)

7 * 2 = 7 + (7 * 1)

7 * 1 = 7

So, 7 * 4 = 7 + (7 + (7 + (7)))

The file must be named: multiply.py Must use Python, NOT C++

10.Graphite and diamond are two different phases of carbon.

Imagine you wanted to design a quasi-experiment to study the hypothesis that Changing the start of the day in high school start time to 8:30 a.m. or later causes teens to suffer less depression. Imagine that there are four public high schools, all in the same area of the country, that are willing to participate in this study. Currently, they all start between 7:20 a.m. and 7:35 a.m., but in fact, two of the high schools are already planning to change their starting times next fall.
