Thermophilic bacterium can convert glucose (C6H12O6) to ethanol and acetic acid .

1) Calculate the reaction enthalpy ΔrH when 1 mol of glucose is oxidized to ethanol at 80∘C.
C6H12O6(s)→2C2H5OH(l)+2CO2(g)

2) Calculate the reaction enthalpy ΔrH when 1 mol of glucose is oxidized to acetic acid at 80∘C.
2O2(g)+C6H12O6(s)→2CH3COOH(l)+2CO2(g)+2H2O(l)

Assume Highline Company has just paid an annual dividend of $ 0.92. Analysts are predicting an 10.3 % per year growth rate in earnings over the next five years. After​ then, Highline's earnings are expected to grow at the current industry average of 5.3 % per year. If​ Highline's equity cost of capital is 9.1 % per year and its dividend payout ratio remains​ constant, for what price does the​ dividend-discount model predict Highline stock should​ sell?

Make a  list of all of the different zip codes that the zombies live at and a count of how many
zombies live at that zip code. The list should be sorted based on the zip code with the
smallest zip code printed first. Example:
Zip Code # Zombies

31234 2

//variables

int zip[] = {37643,31234,32785,32643,32785,32643,31234,31234,32643,32643,31234,32785,32785,32643,31234};

char zombie[]={'N','Y','Y','N','Y','Y','Y','N','Y','Y','N','Y','Y','Y','Y'};

Y = zombie N = Not zombie

int zPatient = 0;
int nonZpatient = 0;
for(int pt = 0; pt < (*(&zombie + 1) - zombie); pt++)
{
if(zombie[pt] == 'N')
{
nonZpatient++;
}
else if (zombie[pt] == 'Y')
{
zPatient++;
}

Questions 1a and 1b are about the linear search algorithm that was discussed in the lectures.

1a. Write a Java method called stringyLinear that performs linear search on an array of String’s, so it is defined as follows. Your code appears in place of the three dots ‘‘⋅⋅⋅’’. Do not write a class, only a method.

If a String equal to key appears in keys, then stringyLinear must return an index in keys where it appears. If no String equal to key appears in keys, then stringyLinear must return −1. Assume that no element of keys is null, and that key is not null.

1b. Suppose that a linear search method is given an array whose length is n, where n ≥ 1. Show that the algorithm performs O(n) key comparisons in the average case. For full credit, you must do this by finding constants c and n₀.

Nonconstant growth: Tre-Bien, Inc., is a fast-growing technology company. Management projects rapid growth of 30 percent for the next two years, then a growth rate of 17 percent for the following two years. After that, a constant-growth rate of 8 percent is expected. The firm expects to pay its first dividend of $2.45 a year from now. If dividends will grow at the same rate as the firm and the required rate of return on stocks with similar risk is 22 percent, what is the current value of the stock?

Nonconstant growth: Management of ProCor, a biotech firm, forecasted the following growth rates for the next three years: 35 percent, 28 percent, and 22 percent. Management then expects the company to grow at a constant rate of 9 percent forever. The company paid a dividend of $1.75 last week. If the required rate of return is 20 percent, what is the value of this stock?

For the following program fragment, (1) give an analysis of the running time T(n) as a function of n and (2) give a big-O bound on the asymptotic running time (tight bounds for full credit).

Sum = 0;

for (i=0; i< n; i++)

   for(j=0; j < i*i; j++)

if(j % i == 0)

for (k=0; k<j; k++)

Sum = Sum + 1;

Case:

How Bad Performance Management Killed Microsoft’s Edge What went wrong? Microsoft has been crippled by a management system known as “stack ranking.” Like the hated bell curve of your high school memory, this program forced each business area to rank a certain percentage of employees as top, good, average, or poor performers. That means that even if your department was full of stars, a certain quota would be getting bad reviews—no matter how hard they worked. Pretty demoralizing. Here is a quote from the preview of the article that’s now available online: “Every current and former Microsoft employee I interviewed—every one—cited stack ranking as the most destructive process inside of Microsoft, something that drove out untold numbers of employees,” Eichenwald writes. “If you were on a team of 10 people, you walked in the first day knowing that, no matter how good everyone was, 2 people were going to get a great review, 7 were going to get mediocre reviews, and 1 was going to get a terrible review,” says a former software developer. “It leads to employees focusing on competing with each other rather than competing with other companies.” This sort of cannibalistic performance management practice—with its rigid, stratified winner’s circle—completely disengaged many workers at the company, and led to a culture that did not encourage cooperation or teamwork. Innovation and excellence fell victim to the need to compete with co-workers for not only recognition but survival. Said one former employee: “It was always much less about how I could become a better engineer and much more about my need to improve my visibility among other managers.” Microsoft, once the uncontested king of the tech industry, has faltered while companies like Facebook, Apple and Google have excelled. Where Microsoft had a head start on technologies like smart phones, social networking and e-reader tablets, in every case the company’s culture, which penalized risk-taking, caused them to fail. Good talent management is not divisive; it is inclusive. It takes into account the viewpoints of peers; it doesn’t pit you against peers. It is flexible and immediate and responsive to the needs of management and the needs of workers. It works in tandem with the culture you want to encourage; it does not set up a new, toxic culture. The surest way to kill your company is to ignore these principles. Answer the following questions:

Q1. Identify the performance measurement system adopted in the Microsoft company and analyze its negative impact on employee morale, creativity and work-outcomes.

Q2. Identify and explain the key stages of the performance management cycle in which Microsoft company made errors in designing an effective performance management system. Give examples  

Q3. In your opinion, is the performance management system at Microsoft ethical? Can it create legal issues for the company?  

Q4. Plan and propose a new performance management system for Microsoft company capable of motivating the employees, taking into consideration all the stages of PMS development.
