Executive Summary

**Quick summary of analysis, problem statement, strategy that we picked, WIG we are going to measure, and a little about how we are going to implement that with specific initiatives and lead measures.

The summary mostly allows people to get a sense of the business where the company is going and how we are going to implement our strategy (without having to read the whole report).

As the Director of Health Information in a large health system, you have been tasked to prepare for a compliance audit by the CEO and Board of Directors. This will involve scheduling a departmental meeting, but many of the employees telecommute. In order to ensure all employees are able to participate, you will need to plan a virtual meeting.

HPI: “I notice I’m short of breath mostly at work but by the time I get home feel fine. No episodes of shortness of breath on the weekends that I can recall. But a few hours back at work and I start to feel like I cannot catch my breath again. A few months ago this happened and it was so bad I left work and went to urgent care where they gave me a breathing treatment of some kind and sent me home on an antibiotic.

Outline: Proposal to Reduce Healthcare Costs

People have seen consistent rates of inflation over the past several decades in healthcare. This inflation has been driven by increases in costs for health insurance, technology utilization, and demand for qualified providers and facilities. Consider the many areas in which the U.S. healthcare system has seen steady rises in costs. Imagine you are a financial manager for an organization that has seen significant cost increases in the past few years or decades in an area related to your organization (e.g., supplies, technology, outside services). Prepare an outline for a proposal on how to help reduce or minimize these costs.Use your text as a resource for this assignment plus one other resource from the library. Please cite your sources. The outline should include the following:

Cost that is being looked at
History of increases
Potential future increases
1–2 suggestions for improvement or change

Describe your topic, provide your data, and cite your source. Collect at least 8 data points. Label appropriately. (Highly recommended: Post this information in the Linear Model Project discussion as well as in your completed project. Include a brief informative descriiption in the title of your posting. Each student must use different data.)

Curve-fitting Project – Linear Model (due at the end of Week 5)

Instructions

For this assignment, collect data exhibiting a relatively linear trend, find the line of best fit, plot the data and the line, interpret the slope, and use the linear equation to make a prediction. Also, find r2 (coefficient of determination) and r (correlation coefficient). Discuss your findings. Your topic may be that is related to sports, your work, a hobby, or something you find interesting. If you choose, you may use the suggestions described below.

A Linear Model Example and Technology Tips are provided in separate documents.

Tasks for Linear Regression Model (LR)

(LR-1) Describe your topic, provide your data, and cite your source. Collect at least 8 data points. Label appropriately. (Highly recommended: Post this information in the Linear Model Project discussion as well as in your completed project. Include a brief informative descriiption in the title of your posting. Each student must use different data.)

The idea with the discussion posting is two-fold: (1) To share your interesting project idea with your classmates, and (2) To give me a chance to give you a brief thumbs-up or thumbs-down about your proposed topic and data. Sometimes students get off on the wrong foot or misunderstand the intent of the project, and your posting provides an opportunity for some feedback. Remark: Students may choose similar topics, but must have different data sets. For example, several students may be interested in a particular Olympic sport, and that is fine, but they must collect different data, perhaps from different events or different gender.

(LR-2) Plot the points (x, y) to obtain a scatterplot. Use an appropriate scale on the horizontal and vertical axes and be sure to label carefully. Visually judge whether the data points exhibit a relatively linear trend. (If so, proceed. If not, try a different topic or data set.)

(LR-3) Find the line of best fit (regression line) and graph it on the scatterplot. State the equation of the line.

(LR-4) State the slope of the line of best fit. Carefully interpret the meaning of the slope in a sentence or two.

(LR-5) Find and state the value of r2, the coefficient of determination, and r, the correlation coefficient. Discuss your findings in a few sentences. Is r positive or negative? Why? Is a line a good curve to fit to this data? Why or why not? Is the linear relationship very strong, moderately strong, weak, or nonexistent?

(LR-6) Choose a value of interest and use the line of best fit to make an estimate or prediction. Show calculation work.

(LR-7) Write a brief narrative of a paragraph or two. Summarize your findings and be sure to mention any aspect of the linear model project (topic, data, scatterplot, line, r, or estimate, etc.) that you found particularly important or interesting.

You may submit all of your project in one document or a combination of documents, which may consist of word processing documents or spreadsheets or scanned handwritten work, provided it is clearly labeled where each task can be found. Be sure to include your name. Projects are graded on the basis of completeness, correctness, ease in locating all of the checklist items, and strength of the narrative portions.

Here are some possible topics:

Choose an Olympic sport — an event that interests you. Go to and collect data for winners in the event for at least 8 Olympic games (dating back to at least 1980). (Example: Winning times in Men’s 400 m dash). Make a quick plot for yourself to “eyeball” whether the data points exhibit a relatively linear trend. (If so, proceed. If not, try a different event.) After you find the line of best fit, use your line to make a prediction for the next Olympics (2014 for a winter event, 2016 for a summer event ).
Choose a particular type of food. (Examples: Fish sandwich at fast-food chains, cheese pizza, breakfast cereal) For at least 8 brands, look up the fat content and the associated calorie total per serving. Make a quick plot for yourself to “eyeball” whether the data exhibit a relatively linear trend. (If so, proceed. If not, try a different type of food.) After you find the line of best fit, use your line to make a prediction corresponding to a fat amount not occurring in your data set.) Alternative: Look up carbohydrate content and associated calorie total per serving.
Choose a sport that particularly interests you and find two variables that may exhibit a linear relationship. For instance, for each team for a particular season in baseball, find the total runs scored and the number of wins. Excellent websites: and

International Freight Forwarding

Hello this essay is about moving a specific cargo from one place to another (freight forwarding).
This specific essay requires you to use the incoterm DDP. This incoterm means the seller assumes all responsibilities and costs for delivering the goods to the named place of destination. The seller must pay both export and import formalities, fees, duties and taxes.

The scenario you will use to write this essay:
Mole Creek Wines (MCW) is a boutique winery located in the township of Deloraine, Tasmania. The winery is negotiating a sales contract for the sale of 22,000 bottles of Tasmanian wine with Empanada Hospitality Supplies (EHS) located in St Louis, Missouri, USA. Each bottle will contain 0.75 litres of pinot noir. The ICC Incoterms 2020 used for sale will be DDP (Downtown St Louis).

Since MCW have no prior experience of exporting wine, they are seeking detailed information on the shipment process so that they can factor the shipment costs and risks in their negotiations with MHS. Hence MCW have asked you – a local freight forwarder – to provide advice on the following:
1. The quickest, safest and most economical method of transport from Deloraine to St Louis
2. Selection and engagement of carriers
3. Packing considerations
4. Compliance with legal, safety and security matters
5. Customs clearance
6. Documentation
7. Risk mitigation

What advice will you give to MCW? Justify your answer using real-world information and data where publicly available. Where any assumptions are made, they should be clearly stated together with their rationale.

Criteria 1: Recommend suitable, viable and reasonable options for freight forwarding.
Criteria 2: Justify recommendations for freight forwarding using real-world data and credible assumptions.
