Troy Engines, Ltd., manufactures a variety of engines for use in heavy equipment. The company has always produced all of the necessary parts for its engines, including all of the carburetors. An outside supplier has offered to sell one type of carburetor to Troy Engines, Ltd., for a cost of $35 per unit. To evaluate this offer, Troy Engines, Ltd., has gathered the following information relating to its own cost of producing the carburetor internally:

*One-third supervisory salaries; two-thirds depreciation of special equipment (no resale value).

Required:

1. Assuming the company has no alternative use for the facilities that are now being used to produce the carburetors, what would be the financial advantage (disadvantage) of buying 20,000 carburetors from the outside supplier?

2. Should the outside supplier’s offer be accepted?

3. Suppose that if the carburetors were purchased, Troy Engines, Ltd., could use the freed capacity to launch a new product. The segment margin of the new product would be $200,000 per year. Given this new assumption, what would be the financial advantage (disadvantage) of buying 20,000 carburetors from the outside supplier?

4. Given the new assumption in requirement 3, should the outside supplier’s offer be accepted?

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.

When the American system was being created, the office of the President was not the center and most important role (if anything was, on the federal level, it as Congress). Now, however, the POTUS occupies the center of American governance, attention (think about voting behavior), and politics. Why do you think that is? Why do you think the presidency has grown to the role in now plays in American politics?

CLASS- POLI 1

Three particles are fixed on an x axis. Particle 1 of charge q₁ is at x = -a and particle 2 of charge q₂ is at x = +a. If their net electrostatic force on particle 3 of charge Q is to be zero, what must be the ratio q₁/q₂ when particle 3 is at (a) x = +0.754a and (b) x = +1.65a?

1. Construct a finite-state machine, using combinational logic, which reads in one bit at a time. When a nibble (4 bits) are all zeros the output is set to one else the output is zero. The machine continues to read in bits and the output remains a one if zeros are read in. If it reads a one the output is a zero.
   1. What are the machine states?
   2. What are the inputs?
   3. What are the outputs?
   4. Draw state table.
   5. Draw the state diagram.
   6. Define the circuit for the next state and the output with the Boolean equations.
   7. Explain if you built a Mealy or Moore machine.

Sort the contents of the two files in ascending order and combine them into one new file (words.txt).
When comparing string order, you must use the compareTo method and make an exception.The source code below is a code that only combines files. Use the comparedTo method to sort the contents of the two files in ascending order.(ex. if(str1.compareTo(str2)<0) {})

A new implementation of Merge Sort uses a cutoff variable to use insertion sort for small number of items to be merged (Merging single elements is costly).

1. Give the pseudo code for the merge sort algorithm with a cutoff variable set to 4.

2. Show the trace for top-down merge sort using the following array of characters with a cutoff variable set to 4.

Program a math quiz on Python

Specifications:

- The program should ask the user a question and allow the student to enter the answer. If the answer is correct, a message of congratulations should be displayed. If the answer is incorrect, a message showing the correct answer should be displayed.

- the program should use three functions, one function to generate addition questions, one for subtraction questions, and one for multiplication questions.

- the program should store the questions and answers in a dictionary or list.

- the program should keep a count of the number of correct and incorrect responses.
