Documentary Analysis

I need help with a Sociology question. All explanations and answers will be used to help me learn.

A revealing look into the lives of students who put it all on the line to be selected, proving that a free education is never without a cost. ‘Selected’ is a documentary about the challenges of public urban education. Through unprecedented access in a Chicago public school, ‘Selected’ explores leadership, triumphs and losses in one of the most culturally and economically diverse schools in the country. ‘Selected’ investigates the impact of being educated in a true melting pot environment and the effect it has on education, acceptance, tolerance and a worldview. It illustrates what is possible when great leadership, diverse cultures and extraordinary minds come together. These interwoven stories highlight the benefits, and unintended consequences, of select schools and society’s constant struggle with urban education

ECON 211 Macroeconomics. Recessionary or Inflationary Gap?

I’m working on a Economics question and need guidance to help me study.

Hello,

This is a discussion post. No need for a title page. Here are the instructions, thanks:

Is a recessionary or inflationary gap bad for an economy? Have you ever wondered how the federal government and the Federal Reserve react to smooth out recessionary and inflationary gaps? In this activity, you will explore the concepts of fiscal policy and the attempts the U.S. government takes when the U.S. economy is in a recessionary or inflation gap. You will discuss the concepts of aggregate supply and aggregate demand to determine how the U.S. economy can work its way back to long-run equilibrium based.

Locate a recent article (published within the last year) that discusses fiscal policy and whether the U.S. economy is in an inflationary or recessionary gap. You can use the Hunt Library, newspapers, new stations, or other credible sources to locate an article. Analyze the article and then address the following concepts in your discussion.

  • Interpret recessionary and expansionary gaps within the economy.
  • Explain the inter-workings of fiscal policy tools.
  • State how taxation and government spending works.
  • Differentiate between fiscal and monetary policy.
  • Demonstrate the mechanics of discretionary fiscal policy within the Keynesian framework.

Summarize your findings using at least 250 words and provide a minimum of one reference. Use current APA formatting to document your sources.

Profit episode

I’m studying for my Business class and don’t understand how to answer this. Can you help me study?

After watching The Profit episode of Mr. Cory’s Cookies, start a discussion post addressing the following topics:

Give a brief overview of the company when Marcus arrives; the product costs, process, people (the 3 P’s). Discuss any constraints and obstacles that the company is facing.

Cory gives Marcus a summary of the P/L results starting with 2014. Comment on the increase in sales and profit, and compute the net profit margin for each year.

Discuss Marcus’ investment in the company. In your opinion, what is an acceptable ROI for Marcus.

Briefly address Marcus’ plan to turn the company around. How did his plan affect product costs; comment on the new cost structure (describe the variable and fixed cost components), the new process and people involved.

Do a little research outside of the video – where can you buy Mr. Cory’s cookies and how much does a dozen sell for?

Now that you know the selling price per unit (dozen) – prepare an estimate of the contribution margin per unit (dozen). This is just your estimate – describe your assumptions to support the estimate.

The following information will provide additional guidance on discussion board expectations.

  • 15 points of extra credit for the content of your initial thread (addressing all the questions asked with appropriate detail).

Assignment 1: Marketing Presentation to Local Goods and Services, Inc.

I’m working on a Marketing exercise and need support.

You work in the marketing department of XYZ Corporation, and your director, Michael Johnson, has assigned you to work with Local Goods and Services, Inc., a small company that is struggling to find its way. Richard Milton, the company’s president, started this company 5 years ago and wants to grow his business. He isn’t fully convinced, however, that he needs formal marketing to do so; he says that “much of my company’s success has come from word-of-mouth and personal connections!” Your job is to present Richard with some important information that will help him understand what marketing really is and to demonstrate the ways in which marketing can be used to create and build relationships with both current and potential customers of his company.

For this Assignment, you will create a PowerPoint presentation that showcases the value of marketing and its role in building and maintaining connections with customers.

To prepare for this Assignment:

  • Review this week’s Learning Resources.
  • Select one product or service that this business offers. You will build Part 2 of your presentation around that selected product or service by addressing the required elements.
  • Refer to the Academic Writing Expectations for 2000/3000-Level Courses as you compose your Assignment.

By Day 7

Submit your presentation for Local Goods and Services, Inc. In your presentation, you should include examples of effective marketing campaigns (via links, images, etc.) to demonstrate this value creation. Your presentation must include a cover slide and References slide that includes properly formatted citations for a minimum of four scholarly sources to support the information you presented. You must also include speakers’ notes that would serve as a script if you were to deliver this presentation to the leaders of Local Goods and Services, Inc.

Part 1: The Value Proposition of Marketing (7–11 slides)

  • Explain what the marketing concept is and how it creates value for customers. (2–3 slides)
  • Describe how marketing is essential to an organization in terms of value creation and the achievement of business objectives. (2–3 slides)
  • Identify two to three ways that marketing can promote positive social change (including influencing habits, values, laws, etc.). Include specific examples. (1–2 slides)
  • Distinguish between customer wants and needs. How are they different from the perspective of a marketing manager? Include visual examples of both. (2–3 slides)
Part 2: The Customer Experience (6–8 slides)

In the second section, you will expand upon the value proposition by addressing the following related to the product or service you have selected to highlight for this business:

  • Describe the role of the value proposition for a selected product or service offered by Local Goods and Services. (3–4 slides)
    • What product or service does this company offer?
    • Who are the target customers for this product or service?
    • How is this product or service important to the customers?
    • How can this product or service improve the customers’ lives?
    • Does this product or service fulfill the customers’ wants or needs? Explain.
  • Identify traditional and digital strategies to build long-term relationships with these target customers. (3–4 slides)
    • How would you plan to promote the product or service to the primary customers?
    • How would these promotional tactics encourage unnecessary spending?
    • How would these tactics encourage long term customer relationships?

Note: For each part of the presentation, be sure to reference at least two scholarly sources (for a total of four) to support your work. Use the Week 1 Assignment Template, provided in this week’s Learning Resources, to complete this Assignment.
