As part of a study of wheat maturation, an agronomist selected a
sample of wheat plants at random from a field plot. For each plant,
the agronomist measured the moisture content from two locations:
one from the central portion and one from the top portion of the
wheat head. The agronomist hypothesizes that the central portion of
the wheat head has more moisture than the top portion. What can the
agronomist conclude with α = 0.01? The moisture content data are
below.
central | top |
---|---|
62.7 63.6 60.9 63.1 62.7 63.7 62.5 |
61.7 63.6 60.2 62.9 61.6 62.8 62.3 |
Condition 1:

Condition 2:

Managers and employees have long expressed dislike and skepticism about performance appraisal, as it is typically practiced in organizations. Some HR practitioners and consultants, such as Samuel Culbert, have advocated getting rid of the standard performance appraisal programs. Culbert has suggested that the arguments typically given for performance appraisal are invalid and, in a word, “bogus.”
a. Describe two arguments or reasons that are typically given in support of formal performance appraisals.
b. Then explain why Culbert and others who are skeptical of performance appraisal believe these arguments are weak or bogus.
c. Explain your perspective on whether performance appraisals are necessary, and why or why not. If you believe they are not necessary, explain what procedures, if any, you would recommend to fulfill the functions that performance appraisals are said to fulfill.

GENERAL BUSINESS COURSE QUESTION:
Joe and Jill were talking about the role played by the Federal Reserve System in the United States. Joe seemed to be quite well informed about the functions and activities of our central bank. "You see, Jill, the Fed is the main guardian of our nation's economic stability," Joe declared. "In America, we don't want inflation and we don't want recession. To stretch the situation just a bit, we are frightened, absolutely terrified, by thoughts of hyperinflation and depression. So, the Fed maintains the right to alter the situation and protect us from these two monsters. And you ask, how they do that? The answer is the discount rate. That is the device that the Federal Reserve System uses to keep us safe."
Jill was enjoying listening to her friend explain it all. Joe continued, "Now the discount rate is the interest rate that the twelve Federal Reserve Banks around the country charge their member banks on a loan. So, when the discount rate goes up, all interest rates tend to go up. And, happy to say, when interest rates go up all over America, this tends to slow down any inflationary tendencies." Jill asked, "Does the Fed have other tools for stopping inflation?" "No," said Joe.
2) Joe probably can't answer this question, but you can. What happens in the Fed's open market operations?

}
};
int main() {
linked_list a;
a.addLast(1);
a.addLast(2);
a.print();
return 0;
}
Question:
Create the node structure and the linked list class. The sample class has implemented the following member methods:
o constructor
o destructor
o print(),
o addLast()
2. Implement the following member methods:
▪ addFirst (T data) // Adds a node with data at the beginning of the list
▪ pop() // Removes the first node of the list. Note: Don't forget to delete/reallocate the removed dynamic memory
▪ contains(T data) // Returns true or false if a node contains the data exists in the list
▪ update(T oldDate, T newData) // Updates the oldData of a node in the list with newData.
▪ size() // Returns the number of nodes in the list
▪ remove( T data) //Removes the node that contains the data. Note, you will need to check if the node exists. Again, don't forget to delete/re-allocate the dynamic memory
3. (Extra Credit Part) Implement the following additional member methods
▪ insertAfter(int n, T data) //Adds a node after the n-th node. Note, you will need to check if the n th node exists, if not, do addLast().
▪ merge(const LinkedList &linkedlist) //Merges this object with linkedlist object. In other words, add all nodes in linkedlist to this object.

Crystal Displays Inc. recently began production of a new product, flat panel displays, which required the investment of $1,400,000 in assets. The costs of producing and selling 5,000 units of flat panel displays are estimated as follows:
1 |
Variable costs per unit: |
|
2 |
Direct materials |
$120.00 |
3 |
Direct labor |
30.00 |
4 |
Factory overhead |
49.00 |
5 |
Selling and administrative expenses |
34.00 |
6 |
Total |
$233.00 |
7 |
Fixed costs: |
|
8 |
Factory overhead |
$251,000.00 |
9 |
Selling and administrative expenses |
145,000.00 |
Crystal Displays Inc. is currently considering establishing a selling price for flat panel displays. The president of Crystal Displays has decided to use the cost-plus approach to product pricing and has indicated that the displays must earn a 11% rate of return on invested assets.
Required: | |||||
1. | Determine the amount of desired profit from the production and sale of flat panel displays. | ||||
2. | Assuming that the product cost concept is used, determine (a) the cost amount per unit, (b) the markup percentage (rounded to two decimal places), and (c) the selling price of flat panel displays. | ||||
3. | (Appendix) Assuming that the total cost concept is used, determine (a) the cost amount per unit, (b) the markup percentage (rounded to two decimal places), and (c) the selling price of flat panel displays. | ||||
4. | (Appendix) Assuming that the variable cost concept is used, determine (a) the cost amount per unit, (b) the markup percentage (rounded to two decimal places), and (c) the selling price of flat panel displays. | ||||
5. | Comment on any additional considerations that could influence establishing the selling price for flat panel displays. | ||||
6. | Assume that as of August 1, 3,000 units of flat panel displays
have been produced and sold during the current year. Analysis of
the domestic market indicates that 2,000 additional units are
expected to be sold during the remainder of the year at the normal
product price determined under the product cost concept. On August
3, Crystal Displays Inc. received an offer from Maple Leaf Visual
Inc. for 1,000 units of flat panel displays at $222 each. Maple
Leaf Visual Inc. will market the units in Canada under its own
brand name, and no variable selling and administrative expenses
associated with the sale will be incurred by Crystal Displays Inc.
The additional business is not expected to affect the domestic
sales of flat panel displays, and the additional units could be
produced using existing factory, selling, and administrative
capacity.

I NEED THE DIFFERENTIAL ANALYSIS DONE PLEASE!!! IF YOU DO ANY PART OF THIS AT ALL PLEASE DO THE DIFFERENCIAL ANALYSIS!!
6. A. Prepare a differential analysis of the proposed sale to Maple Leaf Visual Inc. Refer to the lists of Labels and Amount Descriptions for the exact wording of the answer choices for text entries. For those boxes in which you must enter subtracted or negative numbers use a minus sign. If there is no amount or an amount is zero, enter “0”. A colon (:) will automatically appear if required.

Carla McFarland was an associate professor of English literature at Highland College. She was the only single person in her department. Consequently, she was frequently assigned classes late in the evening, on weekends, and during the summer semester. She was also called upon to pick up visiting professors and serve as their escort and guide during their stays at the college. She received extra duty as adviser to the The Highland Review, the college's literary magazine. When McFarland complained about the unequal treatment, she was told that the married professors had family responsibilities that she did not have, which took up much of their time and prevented them from having the flexibility that she had. Thus, she would continue to carry the extra load. McFarland filed a complaint with the EEOC.
Can discrimination based on an employee's status as a single person be considered unlawful under the Civil Rights Act? Explain. Is this a case of disparate impact or disparate treatment? Explain. Final answer must be 3 sentences minimum.

For this task you will create a Point3D class to
represent a point that has coordinates in three dimensions labeled
x, y and z. You will then use the class
to perform some calculations on an array of these points. You need
to draw a UML diagram for the class (Point3D) and then
implement the class.
The Point3D class will have the following state and
functionality:
Write a TestPoint3D class that will have a main method, and perhaps other methods as required by good design, to test your Point3D class. It will not have user input because this class will stand as a record of the tests you have applied and you will be able to run it whenever you alter your Point3D class. For the TestPoint3D class you will need to do the following:
