Use your time wiselyto show your insights into each question after carefully reviewing the reference materials.(NO WORD COUNT)PART TWO:Find an operations-basedcompany you are familiar with and research its use of suppliers. First, take a look at what companies have already been reported on and try not to duplicate what someone else has analyzed. Then research whether your chosen company makes any of its own products, or does it outsource all or most of its components and finished products. Where does it source, internationally or domestically? See if you can get a macro-picture to report to the class regarding this companys products and how it uses a supply chain to source components and/or finished products. Product manufacturing companies you are familiar with are a good place to start, however, its also interesting to find a company that maybe no one has heard much about. Once you have found a company you are interested in reporting on for this Discussion, begin by describing this companys products and then their supply chain network. Finally, see if you can identify the primary risks this company has with its sourcing.(200 WORDS)PART THREE:During the Great Recession, like any other economic downturns, as unemployment rises, aggregate income declines causing a major decline in tax collections. On the other hand, with the rise in unemployment, spending on safety net programs rise. So, there are not too many good options available to resort the health of the national economy. It will be very difficult to defend cuts in the federal government programs and especially the programs geared to sustain the minimum of the standard of living for the recent poor. So, government needs to increase its borrowing. Deficit spending refers to government spending exceeding what it brings in federal income and corporate taxes during a certain period. Deficit spending hence increases government debt. Most economists accept that deficit spending is desirable and necessary as part of countercyclical fiscal policy. In such a case, government increases its borrowing and hence its deficit to compensate for the shortfall in aggregate demand. This is derived from Keynesian economics, and has been the mainstream economics view. Following John Maynard Keynes, many economists recommend deficit spending to moderate or end a recession, especially a severe one. When the economy has high unemployment, an increase in government purchases creates a market for business output, creating income and encouraging increases in consumer spending, which creates further increases in the demand for business output. (This is the multiplier effect). This raises the real gross domestic product (GDP) and the level of employment and lowers the unemployment rate. Government borrowing under such circumstances increases the demand for borrowing and thus pushes interest rates up. Rising interest rates can crowd out (discourage) fixed private investment spending, canceling out some of the demand stimulus arising from the deficitWrite and analyze the advantages and disadvantages of deficit spending and the effects of federal government borrowing on the economy i.e., the crowding out effect.Complete this in a Microsoft Word document, and in APA format.

On the contrary, Keynesian economists believe because of price and wage rigidities the economys equilibrium output in the long run may be less than its potential output. What is price-wage rigidity? Do you agree with Keynes assessment that wage-price rigidity requires governments involvement in the markets? Why? Why not?(200 WORDS)
determine the degree of effect that the play, Hamlet, signifies challenges BETWEEN the concepts of the divine and the humankind that signify their assured mutuality by examining their simultaneous similar contradictions
All the worlds a stage and all the men and women merely players -William ShakespeareLife is a play. Its not its length, buts its performance that counts -SenecaPlaywrights have, throughout history, been tasked with providing a monumentally difficulty in providing a snapshot of humanity told through the lens of humanity about humanity using humanity. In another way, drama becomes the essence or reflection to the truth regarding society and what the society is comprised of. This can be a very richly rewarding experience validating the norms and customs of the present while also expanding them from the limitations woven into the fabrics of society at that time. And, over time, drama has an uncanny ability in not only surviving from its inception but evolving into something more so where drama was once a snapshot of a moment in time, it begins to change into a photo album chronicling elements, ideas, concepts, and themes that have not only served as reflective but proactive in our continual understanding. Consider these expanded boundaries as you read drama, think reflectively (and introspectively) on its relation to you and beyond you. There is a reason that plays written hundreds of years ago survive to the day (and are adapted into the present day of affairs too).For your final out of class assignment you are being asked to examine one of the options below.

Savage Inequalities: Children in Americas Schoolsis a book written byJonathan Kozolin 1991 that discusses the disparities in education between schools of different classes and races. It is based on his observations of various classrooms in thepublic schoolsystems ofEast St. Louis,Chicago,New York City,Camden,Cincinnati, andWashington D.C.. His observations take place in both schools with the lowest per capita spending on students and the highest, ranging from just over $3,000 inCamden,New Jerseyto a maximum expenditure of up to $15,000 inGreat Neck,Long Island.In his visits to these areas, Kozol illustrates the overcrowded, unsanitary and often understaffed environment that is lacking in basic tools and textbooks for teaching. He cites the large proportions of minorities in the areas with the lowest annual budgets, despite the higher taxation rate on individuals living in poverty within the school district.Retrieved from http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Savage_Inequalities&oldid=601088529(Links to an external site.)Links to an external site.DirectionsYou will read an excerpt from Savage Inequalities.
