Find 3 sources about unethical behavior response

Analyze three sources about their team’s topic from the past 10 years. Use the “Evaluating Sources” handout (posted in the Major Assignments/Assignment 3 folder) to critically analyze those sources and post an analysis by responding to the questions below

Please put your source into APA-style format, don’t just copy/paste the URL. See APA-style Guide to Electronic Sources or, if you found the material in a database, see this overview that shows how to cite from databases like Factiva.

While you may consult with your teammates about sources, each student is expected to find three sources on their own. If another teammate has already posted about a source you selected, you need to find a new one. Coordinate with your teammates to avoid duplicative efforts. Full points are earned for evaluations that are complete, accurate, and sufficiently and thoughtfully detailed. See the grading rubric posted under My Grades/Group Facilitation Discussion Board: Evaluating Sources/View Rubric.

Format your post so that your evaluation of each source is clear and distinct per the example below.

Rubin talks about a “line” between “good” sex and “bad” sex. Describe what this means and the struggle over where to draw the line.

1. Jeffrey Weeks says: “The legal classification [of homosexuality] and the epithet had […] an uncertain status and was often used loosely to describe various forms of non-reproductive sex. There was therefore a crucial distinction between traditional concepts of buggery and modern concepts of homosexuality.”

What was that distinction?

1. He also says “[…]the emergence of a specific male ‘homosexual role’, a specialized, despised and punished role which ‘keeps the bulk of society pure in rather the same way that the similar treatment of some kinds of criminal helps keep the rest of society law abiding”

What were the two effects this role had?

1. Gayle S. Rubin states: “The success of the anti-gay campaign ignited long simmering passions of the American right, and sparked an extensive movement to compress the boundaries of acceptable sexual behaviour.”

According to Rubin, what else did the right and far right link to “non-familial” or frivolous sexuality?

1. Rubin talks about a “line” between “good” sex and “bad” sex. Describe what this means and the struggle over where to draw the line.

Northwestern fired the professors. What are the arguments for and against the firings?

Short and precise (300 words) and incorporate critical thinking skills. A few Northwestern adjunct professors met for a happy hour near campus at a bar that hosts karaoke on Tuesday nights. After consuming several adult beverages, the professors began clowning around and singing raunchy songs.* A student captured the scene on his phone and posted it to TikTok. The video then went viral. In the video, the Northwestern University logo is clearly visible on the professors’ briefcases and backpacks. Northwestern fired the professors. What are arguments for and against the firings?

What was the role of women in the French Revolution?

Think of examples before, during, and immediately after the revolutionary events, giving examples for all three Estates, e.g. name and briefly reflect on someone from the ruling aristocratic class, then from working and peasant class, and from the middle class – bourgeois.

Use and cite at least once your e-book, a video documentary (see suggestions below), and an academic source of your choice found at our library or online.

For a video documentary, watch Women and the French Revolution by Tom Richey: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QG3Zg12YcUQ It has three parts, and all are about 10-15 minutes long, free on YouTube. Ignore Tom Richey’s (mis)pronunciation of French names and places.

Write a 300-word response. Include at least 4 dates/periods, e.g. the year when X happened, the century when Y ruled, etc. Utilize and provide answers to the general historical questions – Who, What, When, Where, Why, and How as you go.

Do make sure that when you use sources (your e-text, website, video, publication), the acknowledged sources are less than 20% of the total word count of your paper. Cite properly your sources: at the end of quoted or paraphrased line, in brackets state author and page number, or simply name of website/video, and at the end of the paper state the full citation (see examples and instructions in Originality, Citation, and Format link in Canvas).

Implement a Dynamic Programming algorithm that finds a maximum weight independent set for a given tree in O(n)time.

You are given a tree T with n nodes. Each node has a non-negative weight assigned to it. Our goal is to

find a set S of nodes such that (i)no two nodes in S are adjacent, and (ii)the total weight of all vertices
in S is maximal. Such a set is called maximum weight independent set.
Assignment
Implement a Dynamic Programming algorithm that finds a maximum weight independent set for a given
tree in O(n)time. If there are multiple such sets, return a set with maximum number of nodes.
Implementation
You are given a file Lab5.java and a file Tree.java. The file Lab5.java contains a class Lab5 with the function problem. Implement your solutions in that function. You can add
private helper functions or classes directly above or below if it improves your runtime or code quality. Do
not output anything to the terminal.
The file Tree.java contains a class Tree which represents an undirected tree and stores it as adjacency list
(in the array edges). It also contains the functions dfs and bfs. Feel free to use them.

after the implementation run the file and if the implementation is correct you will get a prompt that the tests were successfully passed if not it will fail the tests. Please don’t change any of the code below the function problem().

Explain to Baldwin Inc. how the two risk analysis models can be used to analyze risk of the project.

RISK ANALYSIS, REAL OPTIONS AND CAPITAL BUDGETING

Baldwin Corporation is a public corporation listed on New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) market. The company researches, develops, manufactures, and sells various products in the health care industry worldwide. Baldwin Inc. operates in three main segments: consumer, pharmaceutical, and medical devices segments. The primary corporate objective of the company is to maximize the value of the owners’ equity by increasing the price of its shares in the stock market. Unfortunately, the company’s stock price has been declining over the past year because of declining sales, cash flow uncertainties, and weak financial ratios. The board of directors have hired a new CFO, Lok Acharya to turnaround the fortunes of the company. Lok earned his PhD in Strategic Management from UC in 2018. After his MBA he worked for five years as sales and marketing consultant for a pharmaceutical company. As a result, Lok does not have much work experience in corporate finance, although in his graduate finance courses, he learnt about time value of money and its applications in financial and investment decisions.

Despite his lack of experience in corporate finance, Lok wants to create value for the company through efficient management of working capital, and prudent capital budgeting activities by expanding the company’s products into new markets. He is considering a capital investment either in the State of Ohio or North Dakota because of growing market demand for the company’s products in both States and the recent changes to the States’ tax legislations that give tax incentives to new companies. The company has announced plans to invest about $2.2 million in its medical devices and pharmaceutical segments. Lok believes that decisions such as these, with price tags in the millions, are obviously major undertakings, and the risks and rewards must be carefully weighed. Lok knows that good financial decisions increase the value of a company’s stock, and bad financial decisions decrease the value of the stock. Lok is working hard to make Baldwin Inc. one of the leading firms in the health care industry.

Lok has been reading articles in financial journals on capital budgeting decisions and risk analysis. He has written down the following ideas on project evaluation techniques from book chapters and peer-reviewed articles:

1. The most popular capital budgeting techniques used in practice to evaluate and select projects are payback period, net present value (NPV), Profitability Index (PI), and internal rate of return (IRR).

2.Payback period is the number of years required for a company to recover the initial investment cost. The shorter the payback period, the better the project.

3. Net Present Value (NPV) technique: NPV is found by subtracting a project’s initial cost of investment from the present value of its cash flows discounted using the firm’s weighted average cost of capital. It shows the absolute amount of money in dollars that the project is expected to generate.

Decision Criteria of NPV

If NPV > 0, accept the project

If NPV < 0, reject the project

The decision rule for mutually exclusive project is to select the project with the highest NPV.

4. Internal Rate of Return (IRR) is the intrinsic rate of return the project is likely to generate. The IRR is the discount rate or the rate of return that will equate the present value of the cash outflows with the present value of the cash inflows (i.e., NPV = 0).

Decision Rule:

Accept the project if IRR > cost of capital

Reject the project if IRR < cost of capital

5. Profitability Index is the ratio of the present value of the future expected cash flows after initial investment divided by the amount of the initial investment. Accept if PI > 1.0 and reject if PI < 1.0.

Exhibit 1: The expected cash flows in US$ from the project in Ohio and North Dakota.

The company’s policy is to select projects using NPV technique and IRR. The cost of capital is 12% for the Ohio project and 10% for ND project.

1. You have been hired as a financial consultant to help evaluate the project. Baldwin Inc. wants you to do the following:

a. Calculate the payback period (PBP) for the two projects.

b. Calculate the profitability Index (PI) for the two projects.

c. Calculate the Internal Rate of Return (IRR)for the two projects.

d. Calculate the Net Present Value (NPV) for the two projects.

e. Use the NPV technique to recommend which investment project it should accept, assuming the cost of capital of financing the Ohio project is 12% and 10% for the North Dakota project?

2. Lok knows how bad forecast can ruin capital budgeting decisions. If the cost of capital changes from 12% to 13% for Ohio project and remains the same for ND project, does the company have to pursue the project?

3. Lok wants to analyze the risk of the project using sensitivity analysis and Monte Carlo simulation.

a. Explain to Baldwin Inc. how the two risk analysis models can be used to analyze risk of the project.

4. Lok has estimated the fixed costs (including depreciation) of the Ohio project to be $6 million, sales price is $2,000, and the variable cost is $800, giving a contribution margin of $1,200. What is the accounting profit break-even quantity for this project?

5. Baldwin Inc. wants to know the likely effect of the capital budgeting decision on its stock price (increase, decrease, no change, or not sure). Choose one and explain why.

Illustrates the market for pizza is characterized by a downward-sloping demand curve

      and an upward-sloping supply curve.                                                    

1. Draw the competitive market equilibrium. Label the price, quantity, consumer  

surplus, and producer surplus. Is there any deadweight loss? Explain.

• Suppose that the government forces each pizzeria to pay a $1 tax on each pizza sold. Illustrate the effect of this tax on the pizza market, being sure to label the consumer surplus, producer surplus, government revenue, and deadweight loss. How does each area compare to the pre-tax case?
• If the tax were removed, pizza eaters and sellers would be better off, but the  

government would lose tax revenue. Suppose that consumers and producers voluntarily transferred some of their gains to the government. Could all parties (including the government) be better off than they were with a tax? Explain using the labeled areas in your graph

Suppose that a market is described by the following supply and demand equations

QS = 2P

QD = 300 – P

1. Solve for the equilibrium price and the equilibrium quantity.
2. Suppose that a tax of T is placed on buyers, so the new demand equation is

QD = 300 – (P + T).

Solve for the new equilibrium. What happens to the price received by sellers, the price paid by buyers, and the quantity sold?

• Tax revenue is T X Q. Use your answer to part (b) to solve for tax revenue as a function of T. Graph this relationship for T between 0 and 300.
• The deadweight loss of a tax is the area of the triangle between the supply and

demand curves. Recalling that the area of a triangle is 1 ⁄2 x base x height, solve for deadweight loss as a function of T. Graph this relationship for T between 0 and 300. (Hint: Looking sideways, the base of the deadweight loss triangle is T, and the height is the difference between the quantity sold with the tax and the quantity sold without the tax.)

• The government now levies a tax on this good of $200 per unit. Is this a good

policy? Why or why not? Can you propose a better policy?
