Discuss motivational theories that impact buying behavior?

CASE STUDY SITUATION You are the vice president of development for BULLET, the second largest discount retailer in the nation. The senior VP has asked you to analyze a new sales venture and determine how to build a clientele foe the new venture and for traditional BULLET stores. There are close to 2000 BULLET stores across the country, most anchoring strip malls or outdoor shopping centers. BULLET stores feature typical grocery store items along with pharmacies, apparel, home décor, books, toys, electronics, seasonal items and health and beauty sections. BULLET’S biggest competitor is BOX MART, the leading discount retailer. BULLET does not come close to the number of store locations nor the revenue that BOX MART produces each year. Aside from similar store layouts and product offerings, there are notable differences between the two discount retailers. Although product offerings are similar, BULLET has a much different image than BOX MART. BULLET is perceived to be better organized, with a more streamlined store layout. They are also more in touch with fashion trends and home décor. BULLET also markets higher quality house brands in all departments, most notably in its food and beverage departments. BULLET offers a wide variety of fresh, ready-to-eat meals that beat BOX MART’S offerings in customer ratings each year. Executives at BULLET have decided to test market a concept for a BULLET branded convenience store. The BULLET convenience store will be located away form BULLET stores and will offer fuel and the loyal BULLET customer, and also new clientele who does not usually shop at BULLET stores. They are also hoping to attract the BOX MART customer. YOUR CHALLENGE The senior VP wants you to determine how a BULLET C-store can feel like a BULLET store, rather than a typical convenience store. You are to suggest techniques tha can expose BULLET C-store customers to BULLET retail store products, ideally resulting in a larger clientele for BULLET retail stores. In addition, you need to plan the product mix the BULLET C-stores; what typical convenience store products should be sold and what other products should be sold to keep up with BULLET’S well-regarded image? Are there store services that should be offered or not?

Asks the user "How many parrots do you own?"

        2: Reads in that many single word names (one for each parrots) from the user and stores the names in an array.

        3: After the user has finished entering names, the program should display the list of all the parrots the user entered.

        4: then display the parrots  in alphabetical order for part 3. Note: string objects can be compared with the “<” operator, which will determine if a given string is alphabetically less than another string.

You may assume the user will own at most 50 parrots.

Following is the payoff table for the Pittsburgh Development Corporation (PDC) Condominium Project. Amounts are in millions of dollars.

State of Nature
Decision Alternative Strong Demand S1 Weak Demand S2
Small complex, d1 8 7
Medium complex, d2 14 5
Large complex, d3 20 -9

Suppose PDC is optimistic about the potential for the luxury high-rise condominium complex and that this optimism leads to an initial subjective probability assessment of 0.8 that demand will be strong (S1) and a corresponding probability of 0.2 that demand will be weak (S2). Assume the decision alternative to build the large condominium complex was found to be optimal using the expected value approach. Also, a sensitivity analysis was conducted for the payoffs associated with this decision alternative. It was found that the large complex remained optimal as long as the payoff for the strong demand was greater than or equal to $17.5 million and as long as the payoff for the weak demand was greater than or equal to -$19 million.

  1. Consider the medium complex decision. How much could the payoff under strong demand increase and still keep decision alternative d3 the optimal solution? If required, round your answer to one decimal place.

    The payoff for the medium complex under strong demand remains less than or equal to $ ??? million, the large complex remains the best decision.
  2. Consider the small complex decision. How much could the payoff under strong demand increase and still keep decision alternative d3 the optimal solution? If required, round your answer to one decimal place.

    The payoff for the small complex under strong demand remains less than or equal to $ ??? million, the large complex remains the best decision.

In C++ write an application that calculates total retail values for 5 different shoes entered by the user.

Shoe 1 $15.50
Shoe 2 $27.30
Shoe 3 $34.50
Shoe 4 $42.11
Shoe 5 $54.25

Application must read shoe number and quantity sold for each transaction stdin, compute the total value of that sale, and add the value of that sale to a grand total for that shoe. After all data has been entered, display the total value of each of the five shoe items. Must have driver and a class, must use a switch structure to which shoes sales to update, must use a sentinel controlled loop to determine when the program should stop looping and display result.
Data members
Product price
Total sales for product(in dollars)
Member Functions
One 1 argument constructor(representing the shoe price), set the value of the data member using this argument. Getters and setters for data member, and updateTotalSales method(uses one parameter representing quantity sold and does not return a value) . must use getter and setter methods to access the fields do not access them directly. It computes the total value of the current sale by multiplying the argument passed by the shoess price. It updates the shoes total Sales data member by adding the value calculated in the previous step to the shoes existing totalSales. Must use getter and setter functions. Do not access the data members directly.

Main function
Instantiate 5 separate objects of the class Shoe, passing the appropriate argument to each constructor. The Shoe class constructor requires the price of that instance of the shoe. The prices can be hard coded numbers.
Using Sentinel controlled loop
1.   Read the shoe number and the quantity sold for one transaction.
2.   Use a switch statement to determine which Shoe objects sales to update.
3.   Call the appropriate Shoe objects updateTotalSales function.
4.   Continue loop until user enters 0 for the shoe number.
5.   After the loop is complete display each shoe objects total sales, including the dollar sign, two decimal places with a field width of 10.

Sample run
Shoe number: 2
Quantity sold: 4
Shoe number: 1
Quantity sold: 3
Shoe Number: 5
Quantity sold: 2
Shoe number: 1
Quantity sold: 2
Shoe number: 5
Quantity sold: 3
Shoe Number: 4
Quantity sold: 2
Shoe Number: 0

Total Sales
Shoe 1 : $77.50
Shoe 2: $109.20
Shoe 3: $0
Shoe 4: $84.22
Shoe 5: $271.25

Linked List-Based Stack Implementation

Implement Stack using a Linked List

  • Use the language library LinkedList
  • Stack methods will call the LinkedList methods
  • You can use string as the object

Instead of using an array, as the StackLab did, here you will use a Linked List from your language's library. Implement all the methods of Stack : push(), pop(), size(), printStackDown(), etc, using calls to the linked list methods that correspond to the actions need. In the array implementation, you wrote code to manipulate the array. For this linked list implementation, methods already exist.

Before the underlying implementation of stack was array, now the underlying implementation of stack will be Linked list.

Implement techniques to increase customer’s product exposure?

CASE STUDY SITUATION

You are the vice president of development for BULLET, the second largest discount retailer in the nation. The senior VP has asked you to analyze a new sales venture and determine how to build a clientele foe the new venture and for traditional BULLET stores.

There are close to 2000 BULLET stores across the country, most anchoring strip malls or outdoor shopping centers. BULLET stores feature typical grocery store items along with pharmacies, apparel, home décor, books, toys, electronics, seasonal items and health and beauty sections. BULLET’S biggest competitor is BOX MART, the leading discount retailer. BULLET does not come close to the number of store locations nor the revenue that BOX MART produces each year. Aside from similar store layouts and product offerings, there are notable differences between the two discount retailers.

Although product offerings are similar, BULLET has a much different image than BOX MART. BULLET is perceived to be better organized, with a more streamlined store layout. They are also more in touch with fashion trends and home décor. BULLET also markets higher quality house brands in all departments, most notably in its food and beverage departments. BULLET offers a wide variety of fresh, ready-to-eat meals that beat BOX MART’S offerings in customer ratings each year.

Executives at BULLET have decided to test market a concept for a BULLET branded convenience store. The BULLET convenience store will be located away form BULLET stores and will offer fuel and the loyal BULLET customer, and also new clientele who does not usually shop at BULLET stores. They are also hoping to attract the BOX MART customer.

YOUR CHALLENGE

The senior VP wants you to determine how a BULLET C-store can feel like a BULLET store, rather than a typical convenience store. You are to suggest techniques tha can expose BULLET C-store customers to BULLET retail store products, ideally resulting in a larger clientele for BULLET retail stores.

In addition, you need to plan the product mix the BULLET C-stores; what typical convenience store products should be sold and what other products should be sold to keep up with BULLET’S well-regarded image? Are there store services that should be offered or not?
