With this detail in mind, briefly state why the e-Mail has become a critical component for IG implementation?

From the chapter reading, we learned that e-mail is a major area of focus for information governance (IG) efforts, and has become the most common business software application and the backbone of business communications today. In addition, the authors provided details to support their position by providing 2013 survey results from 2,400 corporate e-mail users from a global perspective. The results indicated that two-thirds of the respondents stated that e-mail was their favorite form of business communication which surpassed not only social media but also telephone and in-person contact.Q1: With this detail in mind, briefly state why the e-Mail has become a critical component for IG implementation?According to Franks and Smallwood (2013), information has become the lifeblood of every business organization, and that an increasing volume of information today has increased and exchanged through the use of social networks and Web2.0 tools like blogs, microblogs, and wikis. When looking at social media in the enterprise, there is a notable difference in functionality between e-mail and social media, and has been documented by research – “…that social media differ greatly from e-mail use due to its maturity and stability.” (Franks Smallwood, 2013).Q2: Please identify and clearly state what the difference is?Note: Each answer should be 200 -250 in APA format and with in text citation.

Which rate of inflation accounts for the substitution bias?

VERSION 2019 and 2020 (LATEST)VERSION 2020:Use the information below to answer questions 1-6 Consider an economy that produces only two goods: fresh apricots and dried apricots. In this economy, the technology of producing dried apricots is to place fresh apricots on special racks and allow them to dry in the sun. Fannie’s Farms is the only company that grows fresh apricots, while Darryl’s Dried Victuals is the only producer of dried apricots. Fannie’s sells some of its apricots directly to consumers for consumption. The relevant revenue and cost information for each of the two firms in the economy is given below:Darryl’s Dried Victuals Revenue from selling dried apricots: Cost of buying fresh apricots from Fannie’s: Interest on funds borrowed to buy drying racks: Wages paid to employees Taxes $2,750,000 1,800,000 200,000 550,000 90,000 Fannie’s Farms Revenue from selling fresh apricots: Rent on land (including apricot trees) Wages to employees Taxes $2,350,000 400,000 1,100,000 180,000 Darryl’s profit from selling dried apricots is: $5,390,000 $110,000 None of these are correct $150,000 $670,000 Fannie’s profit from selling fresh apricots is: $4,030,000 $110,000 $670,000 $300,000 None of these are correctQuestion 3 3 pts Use the income approach to calculate nominal GDP.

Nominal GDP for 2012 $13. Assuming that 2011 is the base year, real GDP for 2011 is $14. Assuming that 2011 is the base year, real GDP for 2012 is $15. Again assuming that 2011 is the base year, the GDP deflator for 2011 is16. Again assuming that 2011 is the base year, the GDP deflator for 2012 is17. The rate of economic growth between the two years as defined by the percent change real GDP is18. The rate of inflation between the two years is19. Let’s consider some data on nominal GDP and GDP price deflator from the Federal Reserve Database:Using the data in the table above, real GDP is equal to $__________.20. During the 1973-1975 recession, GDP growth was about -3% and the percent change in prices was about 13%. This combination of GDP growth and percent change in prices is referred to as:21.

Notes:-June 2009 is the last month of the Great recession – the official recovery, began in July of 2009 -expected inflation data is one year hence, so expected inflation for the period from June 1, 2008 to June 1, 2009 is given in June 2008. So the data in the table indicates that in June of 2008, inflation was expected to be 5.1% over the next 12 months28. 29. Use the provided CPI data to calculate the actual inflation rate that occurred between June 2008 and June 2009 (hint: just calculate the % change in the CPI).30. The ex-ante real rate of interest between June 2008 and June 2009 is:31. The ex-post real rate of interest between June 2008 and June 2009 is:32. We know that most decisions are in part, based on expectations of the future. Suppose we have two people who are trying to decide whether to consume today (assume it is currently June 2008) or save for the future and consume one year later, in June 2009. One person, let’s call him Joe, is basing his decision on the ex-ante real rate of interest like most of us do. The other person who has a crystal ball, we’ll call her Crystal, can see exactly what the actual rate of inflation is going to be and thus, has perfect foresight and bases her decision on the ex-post real rate. Look at the difference in the ex-ante and ex-post real rates you calculated in #25 and #26 above. Who would be more likely to save and who would be more likely to spend?33.

A friend of mine came to Penn State in the 1970s and told me that sticky buns at the College Diner cost $.75 (75 cents) in December of 1976. The CPI in December of 1976 was 58.4 and in December of 2012, the CPI was 230.979. Use this CPI data and assuming that the price of sticky buns rose in exact proportion to the CPI, what would the price of sticky buns have to be in December of 2012 so that the ‘real price’ of sticky buns remained constant?38. Government spending on transfer payments is included in government purchases when calculating GDP because it results in the production of new goods and services.39.

identify which aspects (or operants) of your strategy represent positive reinforcers, negative reinforcers, and/or punishers.

A classic example of bullying is a scenario in which a much larger, stronger bully physically intimidates and harasses a smaller, weaker victim to steal the victim’s lunch money. You might think that the obvious solution to the bullying in this example is to punish the bully to prevent the behavior from reoccurring. It would be nice if the solution were that simple, but it often is not. The bully may receive gains from the behavior (positive reinforcement; e.g., money to buy more food at lunch or respect from peers) that outweigh the punishment. Furthermore, if the bullying has occurred over a length of time with the same victim, the victim may also develop a conditioned response. For example, suppose that the school bell signaling that it is lunch time rings just before the bully approaches the victim for his lunch money. Initially the bell is a neutral stimulus that produces no specific response. Over time, the victim may associate the bell with the fear response of being bullied, such that the bell alone triggers a fear response in the potential victim. Now the bell is a conditioned stimulus because it elicits a conditioned response.Classical and operant conditioning can be used to understand why bullying occurs, as illustrated in the previous example, and to design effective interventions to reduce bullying behavior. In this discussion, you will use classical or operant conditioning to propose a strategy to mitigate bullying.To Prepare:Review this week’s Learning Resources on the behaviorist perspective and classical and operant conditioning.Pay particular attention to the meaning of the terms in each type of conditioning. Classical conditioning terms include: UCS (unconditioned stimulus), UCR (unconditioned response), NS (neutral stimulus), CS (conditioned stimulus), CR (conditioned response). Operant conditioning terms include positive reinforcers, and negative reinforcers, and punishers.Select one conditioning approach and use it to propose a strategy to mitigate bullying.Operationalize the characteristics of your strategy. For example, if you selected the classical approach, identify which aspects of your strategy represent the UCS, UCR, NS, CS, and CR. If you selected the operant approach, identify which aspects (or operants) of your strategy represent positive reinforcers, negative reinforcers, and/or punishers.

discuss why quantitative analysis is important for describing data sets and presenting distribution information.

The Quantitative Analysis Approach [WLO: 1] [CLO: 1]For this discussion, begin by reviewing the technique of quantitative analysis in your textbook. Then, keeping this technique in mind, read the following quotes:“Data do not give up their secrets easily. They must be tortured to confess.”—Jeff Hopper, Bell Labs“Statistics is a body of methods for learning from experience.”—Lincoln Moses“The time may not be very remote when it will be understood that for complete initiation as an efficient citizen of one of the new great complex worldwide states that are now developing, it is as necessary to be able to compute, to think in averages and maxima and minima, as it is now to be able to read and write.”—H.G. Wells“The coming century is surely the century of data.”—David Donoho (2000)“Another mistaken notion connected with the law of large numbers is the idea that an event is more or less likely to occur because it has or has not happened recently. The idea that the odds of an event with a fixed probability increase or decrease depending on recent occurrences of the event is called the gambler’s fallacy. For example, if Kerrich landed, say, 44 heads in the first 100 tosses, the coin would not develop a bias towards the tails in order to catch up! That’s what is at the root of such ideas as ‘her luck has run out’ and ‘he is due.’ That does not happen. For what it’s worth, a good streak doesn’t jinx you, and a bad one, unfortunately, does not mean better luck is in store.”?Leonard Mlodinow, The Drunkard’s Walk: How Randomness Rules Our Lives“A certain elementary training in statistical method is becoming as necessary for everyone living in this world of today as reading and writing.”?H.G. Wells, World Brain“The non-scientist in the street probably has a clearer notion of physics, chemistry and biology than of statistics, regarding statisticians as numerical philatelists, mere collector of numbers.”?Stephen Senn, Dicing with Death: Chance, Risk and HealthQuotes retrieved from www.goodreads.com/quotes/search?utf8=%E2%9C%93q=statisticscommit=Search (Links to an external site.)Based on the above quotes, along with this week’s assigned readings and Instructor Guidance, discuss why quantitative analysis is important for describing data sets and presenting distribution information.

Would you propose an audit adjustment to the management estimate?

EP 5-3Auditing an Accounting Estimate. LO5 Suppose management estimated the lower-of-cost- and net realizable value of some obsolete inventory at $99,000, and wrote it down from $120,000, recognizing a loss of $21,000. The auditors obtained the following information: the inventory in question could be sold for an amount between $78,000 and $92,000. The costs of advertising and shipping could range from $5,000 to $7,000.Required:1.Would you propose an audit adjustment to the management estimate? Write the appropriate accounting entry.2.If management’s estimate of inventory market (lower than cost) had been $80,000, would you propose an audit adjustment? Write the appropriate accounting entry.

explain the state public assistance policies that might help Eboni manage the responsibilities of parenthood.

What is welfare? When you hear the word “welfare,” do you picture images of individuals who are facing hard times? While there is more than one type of social program available in the United States to those who need it, social welfare programs like TANF provide assistance to families in need through government tax revenues. Programs like these are often referred to as “public assistance” or “means-tested programs.” These programs have eligibility criteria that are based on the individual’s or the family’s household income and assets. Do these types of programs exist in your state or region? If so, what are the criteria? If you encountered a client like Eboni Logan, from the Logan Family video, who soon will become a mother, how might you best assist her in obtaining benefits from these types of programs?For this Discussion, review this week’s resources, including the Logan Family video case. Consider the means-tested programs that might be available to her in your state or region. Then, think about the likely long-term outcomes for Eboni and her child, if she chooses to parent. Finally, reflect on the state welfare policies that might help her manage the responsibilities of parenthood.By Day 3Post a brief explanation of the means-tested programs that might be available to Eboni. Be sure your answer is specific to the means-tested programs available in your state or region. Then, explain the potential long-term outcomes for Eboni and her child, if she chooses to parent. Finally, explain the state public assistance policies that might help Eboni manage the responsibilities of parenthood.
