Arlo Industries manufactures three types of dog collars: a deluxe model with solid leather and upgraded leash rings, a standard model using a "leatherette" compound, and a bargain model that they sell to discount outlets. The profit contributions of these collars are $12 Deluxe, $10 Standard, and $8 Bargain. All collars must be cut, assembled and shipped using three different production lines. The following table shows the time (in minutes) for each operation:
Production Line |

Next month, the company estimates there will be 380 hours available for cutting, 370 hours for assembly and 400 hours available for shipping. In addition, up to 80 hours of overtime is available that can be used on either the cutting and/or assembly production lines at a cost of $20 per hour. The company has already received orders for 1200 deluxe collars, 1000 standard collars, and 600 bargain collars that must be filled, but believes they can sell as many collars as they can make. The company is interested in maximizing profit, subject to the constraints listed above.

As you learned in your Reading, procurement or purchasing is the precursor to the rest of the foodservice management system. In this Journal assignment, you will decide both a purchasing method and process based on your understanding of the readings. Read the scenario and address the checklist items in a thorough response. Scenario: You are the new Beverage Manager at a new large hotel that has banquets and has several restaurants. You are tasked with deciding on the purchasing method and process for purchasing all the alcoholic beverages at the hotel. Checklist: Identify and explain the purchasing method will you use and why. Provide the purchasing process will you use and explain why.

4. You have a fourth project that will cost 1700 to invest in one year from now, will generate a cash inflow of 150 starting in year three and continuing forever. If the discount rate is 8%, what is the NPV and should you accept the project based on the NPV?
5. Finally, you have a fifth project that will cost 1500 to invest in today, will generate a cash inflow of 165 in year one, which will grow at a constant rate of 2% for 29 additional years (for a total of 30 cash inflows), and will have a shutdown cost of 1000 at the end of year 30. If the project’s discount rate is 10%, what is the NPV and should you accept the project based on the NPV?

Explain how technology has changed the learning environment. Give
examples.
Classmate respond:
Rapidly changing technology has had an enormous impact on the learning environment; and I suspect will continue to do so in the next 5 years.
Our current global health crisis provides one outstanding example. The expansion of user-friendly, widely accessible video chatting/web based video calls such as Zoom, Skype, and Facetime allow for even kindergarten students to connect with their teachers and fellow students. Without the use of this technology, many of our students across the nation would not have access to education right now.
Our text (Noe, R.A., 2017, pg 335) highlights "New technologies have made it possible to reduce the costs associated with delivering training to employees, to increase the effectiveness of the learning environment, and to help training contribute to business goals." Some examples of this are online learning management systems, which allow employees to track and continue learning at their own self-guided pace. My company uses an online learning management system and it's a great tool to push new training and annual certification courses our to existing employees. It also allows supervisors to periodically check status of training, and give feedback to teammates.

AB213-2: Determine required sanitary and safety procedures in food and beverage operations.
In a university dining hall and based on FDA, OSHA, and HACCP standards, address the concerns the new chef has when viewing current operations at the dining hall.
Scenario: As the Chef enters the restaurant kitchen she sees the following situation: One preparation person with long hair is grabbing several heads of lettuce from the refrigerator and placing them on a cutting board immediately after the chicken prep person has finished deboning the chicken breasts for lunch. The chicken preparation person throws the knife into a bin of cutlery sitting in tepid soapy water. Then the oven doors are all open on one end of the kitchen while the baker goes to the pantry. There are unlabeled and uncapped drink mixes for the bar located on the shelf with the milk in the refrigerator. A vendor has just left several crates of eggs at the back door and no one seems to be aware of this. An abandoned prep station has an open carton of cream sitting near the burners where someone was obviously sautéing something, but has left the station and there seems to be an open can of oil sitting on top of the ignited burners.
The chef is immediately alarmed and starts to make notes while moving rapidly towards the most urgent issues to prevent someone getting hurt.
Help the chef and write a 2–3 page paper with correct grammar and spelling, and an additional title and references page in APA format with proper citation that addresses the following:

Question 1: Consider a biallelic locus in an annual plant population. You observe the allele frequencies of allele A and allele T are equal to 0.4 and 0.6 in 2010, respectively.
A) Calculate the heterozygosity (H) of this locus in 2010, assuming the population mating is at random.
B) What is the expected frequency of allele A in 2020?
C) If the effective population size of this population is equal to 1,000, what is the expected heterozygosity of this locus in 2020?
D) If the effective population size is equal to 10 instead, what is the expected heterozygosity in 2020?
E) Based on your calculation, explain why genetic diversity is typically very low in endangered species.
Question 2: The observed heterozygosity (H) of a microsatellite is equal to 0.2% in a diploid population, and the mutation rate (per generation) at this microsatellite locus is equal to 2 x 10-8.
A) Estimate the effective population size of this population.
B) The census population size of this population is 106. Name two distinct processes that can contribute to the mismatch between the census population size and the effective population size.
Question 3: Suppose there are two annual plant species (A and B). Species A lives in a stable environment and has a constant census population size of 1,000. Species B lives in an unstable environment alternating between dry and wet years. Species B’s census population size is 200 in dry years and 1,800 in wet years. The frequencies of the dry and wet years are equal.
A) What is the effective population size of species A?
B) What is the effective population size of species B?
C) Assume the two species are similar in genome size and mutation rate, which species do you expect to have a higher level of heterozygosity? Why?
Question 4: Suppose a population has an effective population size of 50. In one generation, the average heterozygosity (averaged across loci) is reduced from 0.5 to 0.42. Is the population mating at random? Why?
Question 5: What is the effective population size in a population in which each breeding male controls a harem of 10 females, and the total population consists of 400 males and 400 females?
