Please find an emerging mobile app and analyze the app according to the following requirements. The app you group chooses to analyze must be published in the app market after January 1, 2020. If an app was published before January 1, 2020, but was updated after this date, you should not choose the app for analysis. For example, YouTube app was published in early 2010, and had a newer version after January 1, 2020. Then, you should not choose YouTube for analysis, because a version update is not considered emerging. The main purpose of this project is to discover an emerging app with potentials instead of analyzing an established app like YouTube, Facebook, etc.

In your analysis, please answer the following questions:

(a) The name, functions, and latest number of downloads of the app;

(b) The reason you choose this app. In other word, why you thinks this app is important;

(c) The strengths of this app, and why users like this app;

(d) The weaknesses of this app, and how you plan to improve it if you were the app manager;

(e) Excluding figures, data tables, and references, a minimum of 2 page analyses are required.

The nine (9) major organizing concepts and their influence on decisions are critical to understanding the dynamics of your organization. Think of a current situation in your organization and describe how each principle influences the organizational behavior

A 15 kW and 1200 r.p.m. motor drives a compressor at 300 r.p.m. through a pair of spur gears having 20° stub teeth. The centre to centre distance between the shafts is 400 mm. The motor pinion is made of forged steel having an allowable static stress as 210 MPa, while the gear is made of cast steel having allowable static stress as 140 MPa. Assuming that the drive operates 8 to 10 hours per day under light shock conditions and face width as 10 times the module, find from the standpoint of strength, 1. Module; 2. Face width; 3. Number of teeth and pitch circle diameter of each gear; 4. Check the gears thus designed from the consideration of wear. The material combination factor for the wear as 1.4 and the flexural endurance limit may be taken as 490 MPa.

Executives must consider the benefits and risks of competing internationally when making decisions about whether to expand overseas. Executives also need to determine the likelihood that their companies will succeed when they compete in international markets by examining demand conditions, factor conditions, related and supporting industries, and strategy, structure, and rivalry among its domestic competitors.

For these executives that may face many uncertainties in a global marketplace, assess the three possible risks that may be faced by decision-makes seeking to expand in global markets. Analyze all three risks listed below. In your own words, analyze what conditions may be present in a country that would cause concern for these decision-makers. Explain what political risks may be present. Describe the economic and cultural risks that may also be present. You do not need to select a country. Your responses to all three risks can be a general overview of potential problems that executives want to review and assess the potential negative impacts.

Political risk refers to the potential for government upheaval or interference with business to harm an operation within a country.

• In extreme cases, a company’s assets in a country are seized by the national government. This process is called nationalization.

Economic risk refers to the potential for a country’s economic conditions and policies, property rights protections, and currency exchange rates to harm a company’s operations within a country.

Cultural risk refers to the potential for a company’s operations in a country to struggle due to differences in language, customs, norms, and customer preferences.

Your response should be around 150 to 200 words.

These wildlife mounts were the gifts of Mrs. McCaffrey, the widow of Ronald E. McCaffrey. Ron was an avid outdoorsman and hunter. Six years ago, he passed away. Because he and his wife had no children, Mrs. McCaffrey donated land and money to construct and maintain a nature center.

Mrs. McCaffrey had contacted you about a new nature center. Actually, it was a stretch to even call the old building a nature center, as it was hardly big enough to hold any exhibits and it was crowded with more than 10 people. On your first visit to the McCaffrey mansion to discuss the possibility of a gift, you noticed a few wildlife mounts and mentioned them to Mrs. McCaffrey. "Oh my," she explained, “Ronnie was so proud of these. And this isn't even half of them. There are twice as many in other rooms. They are important to me because I know what they meant to Ronnie."

Over the next 6 months an agreement was reached. The McCaffrey estate would donate $5 million and 50 acres of land for the nature center. It would be operated by your organization, and because Mrs. McCaffrey had known and trusted you from the start, you would continue as director. There was to be a plaque recognizing the donation and the McCaffreys' lifelong commit ment to outdoor conservation. Early on Mrs. McCaffrey stated that she would like to have several of the wildlife mounts in the new building for people to view. You recalled telling her that it would be impossible to display all of them. She had responded, "Well honey, I'm sure you could at least save one wall for them. Couldn't you?"

"Yes," you agreed, "we can put several of them up in a prominent place when we get the center built."

She went on to say that her husband had been especially proud of sev eral of the larger head mounts as they were in record books, and she would like to see them displayed. You had thought at the time that it was a mixed blessing. The heads might be a hassle to maintain but they did have some educational value and they were part of a deal that would benefit the entire community. There was certainly no other way a new nature center was going to happen.

The first 2 years of operation came off without a flaw, but there had been an increasing number of complaints about the mounts over the past year. Last week a family had stopped by the center and looked at the displays of animal tracks, discarded antlers, snake skins, and tree identifications. The mother and father complimented you on the nature center but asked about the appropriateness of displaying the heads of deer, elk, and other animals. You explained the educational value of the animal mounts. "Well, it just seems so contradictory to what the center is all about," the father answered. “How can you talk about caring for nature and educating people and then have a wall full of the heads of dead animals?"

Riverbed Windows manufactures and sells custom storm windows for three-season porches. Riverbed also provides installation service for the windows. The installation process does not involve changes in the windows, so this service can be performed by other vendors. Riverbed enters into the following contract on July 1, 2017, with a local homeowner. The customer purchases windows for a price of $2,360 and chooses Riverbed to do the installation. Riverbed charges the same price for the windows irrespective of whether it does the installation or not. The customer pays Riverbed $2,100 (which equals the standalone selling price of the windows, which have a cost of $1,110) upon delivery and the remaining balance upon installation of the windows. The windows are delivered on September 1, 2017, Riverbed completes installation on October 15, 2017, and the customer pays the balance due. Riverbed estimates the standalone selling price of the installation based on an estimated cost of $430 plus a margin of 10% on cost. Prepare the journal entries for Riverbed in 2017.

d. Depreciation recorded on factory equipment, $63,200.
e. Other manufacturing overhead costs incurred, $84,600 (credit Accounts Payable).
f. Manufacturing overhead cost was applied to production on the basis of 40,780 machine-hours actually worked during the month.

g. The completed job for 12,300 custom made machine parts was moved into the finished goods warehouse on January 31 to await delivery to the customer. (In computing the dollar amount for this entry, remember that the cost of a completed job consist of direct materials, direct labor, and applied overhead)

Required:

1. Prepare Journal entries to record items (a) through (f) above [ignore item (g) for the moment].
