Based on this information, in which city should you open a second office in?
Final Project Assignment InstructionsScenario Background:A marketing company based out of New York City is doing well and is looking to expand internationally. The CEO and VP of Operations decide to enlist the help of a consulting firm that you work for, to help collect data and analyze market trends.You work for Mercer Human Resources. The Mercer Human Resource Consulting website lists prices of certain items in selected cities around the world. They also report an overall cost-of-living index for each city compared to the costs of hundreds of items in New York City (NYC). For example, London at 88.33 is 11.67% less expensive than NYC.More specifically, if you choose to explore the website further you will find a lot of fun and interesting data. You can explore the website more on your own after the course concludes.https://mobilityexchange.mercer.com/Insights/ cost-of-living-rankings#rankingsAssignment Guidance:In the Excel document, you will find the 2018 data for 17 cities in the data set Cost of Living. Included are the 2018 cost of living index, cost of a 3-bedroom apartment (per month), price of monthly transportation pass, price of a mid-range bottle of wine, price of a loaf of bread (1 lb.), the price of a gallon of milk and price for a 12 oz. cup of black coffee. All prices are in U.S. dollars.You use this information to run a Multiple Linear Regression to predict Cost of living, along with calculating various descriptive statistics. This is given in the Excel output (that is, the MLR has already been calculated. Your task is to interpret the data).Based on this information, in which city should you open a second office in? You must justify your answer. If you want to recommend 2 or 3 different cities and rank them based on the data and your findings, this is fine as well.Deliverable Requirements:This should be ¾ to 1 page, no more than 1 single-spaced page in length, using 12-point Times New Roman font. You do not need to do any calculations, but you do need to pick a city to open a second location at and justify your answer based upon the provided results of the Multiple Linear Regression.The format of this assignment will be an Executive Summary. Think of this assignment as the first page of a much longer report, known as an Executive Summary, that essentially summarizes your findings briefly and at a high level. This needs to be written up neatly and professionally. This would be something you would present at a board meeting in a corporate environment. If you are unsure of an Executive Summary, this resource can help with an overview. What is an Executive Summary?Things to Consider:To help you make this decision here are some things to consider:Based on the MLR output, what variable(s) is/are significant?From the significant predictors, review the mean, median, min, max, Q1 and Q3 values?It might be a good idea to compare these values to what the New York value is for that variable. Remember New York is the baseline as that is where headquarters are located.Based on the descriptive statistics, for the significant predictors, what city has the best potential?What city or cities fall are below the median?What city or cities are in the upper 3rd quartile

Develop a diversity mission statement that includes a definition of how you view diversity and the importance of diversity to the workplace as well as the work that is performed at that workplace
InstructionsFor this assignment, you will develop a brochure you could share with the general public that explores the role of diversity in a workplace of interest to you. Develop a diversity mission statement that includes a definition of how you view diversity and the importance of diversity to the workplace as well as the work that is performed at that workplace (i.e., if a community college incorporates both the role of diversity for the organization and teachers as well as the students and community served).

Explain how the ecosystem was affected by the missing species for each round of the demonstration.
Read Lab 3: Biodiversity. This lab will allow you to investigate how various organisms alter their environments. Additionally, it will allow you to assess the health of ecosystems based upon their biodiversity. Then, you will utilize this information and your eScience lab kit to complete Demonstration 1 and Experiment 1 on the Week Three Lab Reporting Form. Make sure to complete all of the following items before submission: Read through the introductory material.Perform Demonstration 1: Interdependence of Species using your eScience lab manual and kit. Complete Table 1 and answer Post Lab Questions 1 through 3 in complete sentences on the Week Three Lab Reporting Form.Record your hypothesis for Experiment 1 on the Week Three Lab Reporting Form.Complete Experiment 1: Diversity of Plants using your eScience lab manual and kit.Complete Table 2 and answer Post Lab Questions 1 through 4 in complete sentences on the Week Three Lab Reporting Form.Submit the Week Three Lab Reporting Form via Waypoint. The document does not need to include a title page or other APA formatting; however, any outside sources utilized in your answers must be referenced in proper APA format as outlined in the Ashford Writing Center. This is the form it need to be in Lab 3 BiodiversityDemonstration 1: Interdependence of SpeciesTable 1: Interdependence of Species ResultsRoundSpecies Missing (Bead Color and Name)1 2 3 4 POST LAB QUESTIONS 1. Explain how the ecosystem was affected by the missing species for each round of the demonstration. a. Round 1 =b. Round 2 =c. Round 3 =d. Round 4 = 2. Provide one action we as humans engage in that leads to the extinction of each of these components. Action affecting Lichens =Action affecting Trees =Action affecting Flowers =Action affecting Bees = 3. Provide three specific actions that humans can take to minimize our impact on the ecosystem and ensure the survival of lichens, trees, flowers, and bees. Action 1 =Action 2 =Action 3 = Experiment 1: Diversity of PlantsTable 2: Number of Each Plant Species Present in Pot 1 and Pot 2Species ObservedNumber in Pot 1(sunlight)Number in Pot 2(shade)Zinnia42Marigold02Morning Glory21Cosmos11Ryegrass10Total Number of Species in Pot:86 POST LAB QUESTIONS 1. Develop a hypothesis on which pot you believe will contain the highest biodiversity. Hypothesis = If I scatter the seed mixture for the experiment, then I will end up with more ryegrass in both pots. This was denied because I ended up with more Zinnia in both pots instead. I thought ryegrass would be prominent in both pots because they looked like simple plants. 2. Based on the results of your experiment, would you reject or accept the hypothesis that you produced in question 1? Explain how you determined this. Accept/Reject = 3. If each pot was a sample you found in a group of wildflowers, would you determine based on the diversity of flowers that the ecosystem is healthy? Why or why not. Answer = Yes I would because not every type of flower need the same thing to grow. So I would assume the ecosystem would have to be healthy to still flourish a diversity of different types of flowers grouped together. 4. How does biodiversity contribute to the overall health of an ecosystem? Provide specific examples and utilize at least one scholarly resource to back your answer. Answer = Biodiversity increases ecosystem productivity. If the ecosystem is productive, then its health is well off. There are plants that that have certain ingredients we need for medications in the United States. So if biodiversity (diversity of life in an area) is abundant, then many people, insects, and other plants benefit from it. ReferencesAny sources utilized should be listed here.
