Henry is in psychotherapy to work through his repressed childhood feelings about his mother and stepfather. The therapist asks Henry to freely talk about his feelings, and when Henry starts to address the therapist as if he was Henry's stepfather, the therapist remains neutral and does not make any judgments about how angrily Henry is speaking to him. The therapist's approach best reflects the primary goals of:
| cognitive therapy. |
| systematic desensitization. |
| client-centered therapy. |
|
psychoanalysis. |

ABC Company is a leading showroom in selling branded Cars. The showroom is displaying automatic and manually operated cars. The automatic model cars are usually purchased by the software engineers and the businessmen. It is observed that the customers who come to purchase the cars would usually come with their family, friends and relatives.
It is identified that some of the customers are interested in purchasing cars through bank loans. The sales will be highest during the year-end and festival season. There is a great influence of the family members in buying these cars. Since the showroom is interested in sales to materialize, rather than pushing any brand, the salesmen are directed to satisfy the customers and to answer the family members’ queries.
The company is having a well-managed Customer Relationship Management Department. Recently the department has received few complaints regarding the product and service from the customers.
Question:
1. Explain five types of customer feedback that can be applied to the above situation. 5 Marks
2. List and explain four points about "how ABC Company can become World Class Company”?
Why do companies prefer to become “World-class”?

Introduction
Three Structural engineers, Huey, Luey, and Stan created HLS. The firm has been involved with industrial and commercial work related to the construction facilities. They have designed heating and ventilation systems for factories and shopping malls, piping for refineries and chemical plants, and even a treatment facility for oil tanker ballast water.
When HLS first started, most of the work was subcontracts for heating and ventilation systems for individual buildings. The scope of work has increased over the years as well as the staff. The firm now employs 30 engineers including the original 3 founders. HLS still generally works as a subcontractor to other design firms. Presently, the three owners are content and do not want to diversify into the other branches of engineering or become more generalized.
Almost all of the analysis and technical drawings are done with an ever-increasing array of software packages. This presents an issue for HLS moving forward. The current system seems to be have issues keeping pace with the demands of work. As a result, HLS has lost $90,000 worth in jobs because of not working with updated software.
The specific package that is being sought is offered by Scrooge industries. The initial cost would be $50,000 and would have an annual fee of 15%. This fee covers service, answering questions, and periodic updates. Another $60,000 would be needed for a software integration. The training for the program is estimated to be $24,000, and one sixth of that would be an annual upkeep cost. This program is expected to have a life expectancy of 10 years.
If the software does prove practical, the next step would be to find out how to finance it. HSL have come up with 2 main sources to draw income. The first is to offer stock to employees. The second would to take out a loan from the bank.
Option A would be to offer stock options to the employees. Since HSL cannot set up the plan as a profit share (there is no money to share) employees would take part of their pay as stock. Then HSL would match on a one-for-four basis. Example: someone who set aside $2000 would be credited with $2500 in stock at the end of the year. It can be assumed that half of the employees (15) would participate with an average of $100 per month per employee.
Option B would be getting a loan from the bank. The maximum amount the bank would loan HSL would be $140,000 at 15% over three years or less. If more is needed, it will cost HSL $9,000 in fees for securing the loan and an additional 1% interest on top of it.
Recommendations
The recommendation is to get the software.

Fly By Night Games Company has decided to hire you to program their new board game simulator for the game “Chutes & Ladders”. The board has squares which are numbered from 1 to 100 and players have counters which start on the theorectical square 0. The players take turns at spinning a spinner with the numbers 1 to 6 on it, and each moves his or her counter forward the number of squares corresponding to the number on the spinner. The first person to reach square 100 is the winner. The interest is caused by the fact that pairs of squares are connected together by "ladders" (which connect a lower-numbered square to a higher-numbered square) and "chutes" (which run from high to low). If a counter lands on the start of a chute or ladder, the counter is moved to the corresponding square at the end of the chute or ladder. Note that landing on the end square of a ladder or a chute has no effect, only the start square counts. If a player is on square 95 or higher, then a spin which takes them past 100 must be ignored (for example, a player on square 99 must ignore all spins which are not 1) and the player should be told that the spin is ignored. Ladders and Chutes are shown in the tables below (on page 2). In C++, using functions and loops: 1. Design your game so the user plays in the following manner: Allow two players to play the game and ask the users for their names. The player "spins" and is told the result of their spin. If they land on the start of a chute or ladder, they are told about it. The player should be told where they end up. The other player then spins. Once a player has reached 100, the game ends with an appropriate message. Then, offer to play again. 2. Note that once a player has reached 100, the game should immediately end. The other player does not get another turn. 3. When your program starts execution, it needs to display a welcome message that describes the program to user in a short, but clear message. Blank lines appear before and after the welcome message to help user read the screen. In addition, goodbye message should be displayed to wrap up the program before exiting. Again, blank lines appear before and after the goodbye message to help user read the screen.

An asset used in a 4-year project falls in the 5-year MACRS class (refer to MACRS table on page 277), for tax purposes. The asset has an acquisition cost of $17341411 and will be sold for $7116692 at the end of the project. If the tax rate is 0.29, what is the aftertax salvage value of the asset (SVNOT)?

Which of the following situations described is a good situation to use an abstract class, and where it would be better to use than either a concrete class or an interface?
|
When some methods in the class are abstract and some are concrete, and some variables in the class need to be private, while other variables need to be public |
||
|
When the inheriting class is closely related to the abstract class, such as with an "is-a" relationship |
||
|
When the objects instantiated from the abstract class hierarchy need to be grouped together |
||
|
When the class will have both concrete and abstract methods |
||
|
All of the above are reasons to use an abstract class over a concrete class or an interface |
