Watch the following video to assist you in creating a multiple-step income statement for Target and Amazon.

Review the multiple-step income statements that you have completed and evaluate the information. If you had to decide which company was more successful using only the multiple-step income statement you created, which one would you be more likely to invest in and why?
Please note, you must explain why and provide sufficient reasoning to support your decision. If this is not provided, you will lose points.

As someone with a background in psychology, you (Darius) have been chosen to be the foreman for this jury. It is your task to organize the jury’s thoughts on whether the defendant should be found guilty or innocent.

This particular jurisdiction requires a jury to submit a court document that summarizes the verdict process. Therefore, you will need to provide a Word document to the judge explaining the thought process of the Jury during deliberation for the court to file away as part of the official verdict. Use references from this module and include APA in-text citations.

Submit your completed assignment by following the directions below. Please check the Course Calendar for specific due dates.

Explore the following scenario and consider how you might
respond in this situation:
* Walden University, LLC. (2020). Elle and Elijah [Video].
Walden University Blackboard.
https://class.waldenu.edu

Read the following sections in the Gorski & Pothini text:
*Chapter 8, “Cases on (Dis)Ability”
* Appendix A, “The Equity Literacy Case Analysis
Worksheet”
* Appendix B, “Points for Consideration”

Review the social and emotional learning resources from the
Week 2 Read, Watch, and Reflect assignment.
• Consider how insights gained from reading the case studies in
the course text may support your response to the case
scenario. What connections do you see between them?

Post a 2- to 3- paragraph Journal reflection on the case
scenario that addresses the following:
* Have you encountered any similar situations in your
teaching?
* How might the teacher in this scenario ensure that she
does what is best for all students in the class?
* How and when might the integration of social-emotional
learning (SEL) help to address the challenges posed by
the scenario? What SEL strategies do you think would
be effective and why?

8 – 10 slides
Substantive content on each slide (4-5 bullet points)
Presentation should have a singular focus (like a research essay) – not a collection of random thoughts.
Graphics/images should be carefully chosen – no cheap “clip art” type graphics – use high quality graphics that serve the theme of the Presentation
Choose or create a theme that is tasteful and reflects the weight of the chosen topic – do not have gaudy images or color schemes
Provide embedded audio for each slide – narrate the presentation

You need a lot more focus. Just having a general presentation on Shakespeare won’t really work – even a PowerPoint presentation needs a focused main point, a thesis.

The example of predictive analytics in business is in the current COVID 19 pandemic. It was highly predictable that firms may underperform based on the facts laid down related to the government restrictions (Chaturvedi & Chakravarty, 2021). For instance, it was predicted that COVID 19 would help in reducing the virus spread in India. The descriptive analytics entails summarizing historical data to get the trend or what will happen next and a good example is the firm’s financial reports, which are summarized, analyzed and used during budgeting and forecasting (Evans, 2017). Lastly, the prescriptive analytics example is the googles waymo (a self-driving car). The cars make multiple calculations for each trip hence supporting its AI technology to decide on places to make turns, load, and even offload passengers.
Data mining for profitability was a good and enjoyable topic, which has improved by research and analytical skills for making informed decisions (Korovin et al., 2016). Depending on the predictive and prescriptive analyses, there were unexpected outcomes due to uncertainties that cannot be told. Some of the challenges in creating the test data model include issues related to data privacy and accuracy of information. The problems were solved through cyber security strategies and counter checking of data entries (Duan et al., 2020). Data issues that may have affected the outcomes are problems such as inaccuracies and data theft, which were solved through strategizing for data security and training staffs for data entry.

Kyler Keef,

For me, a real world example of these three analytics would be applied in the music industry. It can be very descriptive because you have to identify your target audience. If you are singing hip hop or rap, you don’t want to pitch to an audience that is alternative rock or a jazz group because you will do no good. In being prescriptive, you have to be understanding and enforcing on the type of shows, merch, or other items you embellish in. Hand in hand, you have to also be predictive by foreshadowing what you may need and how much you will sell. I think the most unpredictive measure taken was some of the inquiries. I was surprised to see that not many inquiries were affected. The hardest problem for the model was the layout. I’m always unsure how I need to make them, so I try my best and hope it is okay. I do not feel as though I had any major data issues. Most of the process seemed to go smoothly.

There
is no “right” or “wrong” answer to a question. Your answers will be
judged based on the quality of your analysis and reasoning, not whether
you “agree” or “disagree” with the propositions in the questions. A
high-quality answer will focus on concepts, arguments, and evidence
(whether qualitative, quantitative, or both), and not on merely stating
opinions that fail to be backed up by analysis. A high-quality answer
will refer not only to the lecture videos but one or more of the
suggested readings and/or additional references your own research turns
up. Refer to the exam writing tips shared previously by the announcement.
“Free
trade with poor countries is often blamed for the rise in wage
inequality in the rich countries, but the real culprit is technological
change that is biased in favor of skilled workers.” Do you agree or
disagree? Discuss critically.
“Jagdish
Bhagwati has argued that democracy provides a necessary ‘safety value’
for public discontent that an authoritarian system does not, thereby
making democracy a better option for developing countries.” Do you agree
or disagree? Discuss critically.
“Sam
Peltzman showed that the potentially beneficial effects of
well-intentioned government policy can be ‘offset’ by a behavioral
response of the public, that, in the end, may nullify any beneficial
effects and lead to no benefit or even make matters worse.” Do you agree
or disagree? Discuss critically.
“Most
developing countries emerging out of colonization opted for
inward-looking and state-led development models. On balance, these
models failed to achieve their goals and it is good that they were
replaced by outward-looking and market-led approaches thereafter.” Do
you agree or disagree? Discuss critically.

In the introductory paragraph
These must be done in the first paragraph:
Identify
the firm, and the relevant key info (e.g., what is the time period for the case, in what
geographic region did it occur, in what sort of business is the firm engaged, etc.).
Briefly and clearly
describe
the ethical challenge the firm faced.
State
the position you are arguing: does your application of stakeholder theory and fair dealing
principles indicate that the firm successfully responded to the ethical challenge or not?
In the body of the essay:
Describe
whatever components of the firm are necessary to understand the case.
Describe
the ethical challenge the firm faced (what was the choice the firm was faced?), providing
whatever additional details are necessary beyond what was stated in the introduction to
understand the case.
Describe
the firm’s response to the challenge (what did the firm choose to do in response to the
ethical challenge you identified?).
Evaluate
the firm’s response, applying stakeholder theory and fair dealing principles explored in
class and in the text.
In the concluding paragraph:
Restate
– in new words – your claim about whether your application of stakeholder theory and fair
dealing lead you to believe that the firm successfully responded to the ethical challenge (or not), and
briefly explain why. Do not introduce new ideas, claims, or information.
Use of a First-person Perspective:
NOTE: You may use “I” to state your position (the “first-person” voice).
Be aware: Speaking from the first-person voice does
not
free you from justifying your claims.
Sharing your opinion does not make your reader believe your opinion is correct. For this essay,
you are expected to convince your reader using systematic, ethically-based reasoning.
HOW SHOULD YOU FORMAT YOUR REPORT?:
Respect the following academic writing skill requirements:
1)
Do not use a title page
In the first line of the first page, include the following info:
Last name (Williams), First name (Joshua) — BADM 2050 Sec. 5, W22 – Challenges Case
2)
Use full sentences; no point form, no bullet-points.
3)
Do not use section or sub-section titles.
4)
You should not use quotations. You are allowed to paraphrase the ideas of others (proper
source citation is still required.)
5)
The body of the essay should be written in 12-point text, and double-spaced.
6)
Do not include extra blank lines between paragraphs beyond what double-spacing inserts.
(For an example, refer to how the body of the text on pg. 5 is formatted.)
7)
Essay margins should be 2.5 cm/1 inch.
8)
Number all pages in the top right corner.
