C1 Shrinkage at Walmart
In 2015, the world’s largest retailer, Walmart, announced a quarterly increase
in sales that was accompanied by an increase in expenses that reduced its
hoped-for profit. In discussing the higher expenses, the company mentioned
“shrinkage” three times in its written press release and 13 times in its conference call with financial
analysts.
The company attributed a significant part of its increased shrinkage to
shoplifting and outright theft, including one instance in which a team of thieves
pushed a shopping cart full of electronics out a back door and loaded them into
a waiting car. To combat these problems, which are unfortunately common in
retailing, the company announced it was restarting a training program for
employees that helps them learn how to spot shoplifters and fellow employees
who are pilfering, along with adding staff to areas of the store that contain
high-value or easy-to-steal items. They also plan to start checking customers rereceipts.
In addition to these measures, however, the company also reported that a sizable portion of the
shrinkage results from difficulties encountered in managing inventory flow throughout the company’s
distribution network and its stores. When warehouses and store backrooms become overstocked with
inventory, it can be difficult to determine which items should be discounted
and moved to the store’s shelves. In recent years, Walmart has increased its
sales of grocery and food items, which can be damaged more easily than its
other inventory and for which failure to monitor expiration dates can be costly.
To deal with these backroom inventory management issues, the company has
added employees to staff those areas.
Walmart’s U.S. supply chain includes more than 100 distribution centers from
which the company makes deliveries to its more than 5000 stores and Sam’s
Club locations using its fleet of more than 6000 trucks. Managing the flow of
inventory from the company’s suppliers through its distribution centers and
into its retail outlets is a mammoth task and, as discussed in this chapter, the
company has made attempts to use technology in new and creative ways to
address these challenges in the past.
Required
1. Become familiar with RFID technology and its potential uses in Walmart’s
supply chain using the information presented in this chapter and
information you obtain through the Web Links, your favorite search
engine, and your library. In about 200 words, outline the advantages
Walmart might gain by using RFID in its retail stores. As you draft your
answer, be sure to consider the nature of the stores’ backroom
environments, which include metal shelving. Also consider Walmarts
possible use of RFID and other technologies as an alternative or addition to
the increased staffing levels the company has announced for its backroom
inventory storage areas.
a
2. In about 100 words, discuss the technologies that Walmart’s trucking fleet
might use to better manage their operations. Include a discussion of
tracking technologies, GPS devices, and/or apps for use by truck drivers on
their smartphones or tablet devices. 3. In about 100 words, discuss the advantages Walmart might gain if it were
to use RFID tracking technologies in all of its retail stores to manage every
single item as opposed to using either case-level RFID or tracking only part
of each store’s inventory at the item level.

Course Outcomes
In this project, you will demonstrate your mastery of the following outcomes:
Develop questions about fundamental aspects of human culture that inform personal assumptions, beliefs, and values using evidence from cultural artifacts and systems
Investigate major developments in the humanities for informing critical questions related to human culture and endeavors
Determine fundamental approaches to studying the humanities in addressing questions about how cultural artifacts and the culture they are created in have influenced each other
Articulate the value of the humanities for their impact on contemporary issues focusing on how humans generate unique meanings
Overview
The enduring relevance of the humanities is that they encourage us to consider the “big ideas.” From wondering what culture is to how we go about studying it, and what is the relationship between objects of cultural and historical significance and the culture in which they are created, the study of the humanities is all-encompassing. The relationship between the creators of works of cultural and historical significance and the things they create and how human meaning is generated through cultural works are part of the themes we will be exploring in this assignment. We humans seem driven to express and create in our search to understand and be understood.
Scenario
For the purposes of this assignment, imagine you are a researcher of human cultures, an anthropologist who is looking from the future back to our world today. In this position, you develop a natural curiosity about cultural works and how they represent a particular culture. You are also curious about how cultural works influence the environment in which they exist. You are new at your job, and your first project is to conduct a thorough analysis of today’s culture via a cultural work, looking to understand how it represents culture and how it reflects its cultural environment. The results of your analysis will be used to craft the copy for a brochure accompanying a museum exhibit about cultural works of the current year.
Directions
Analysis of a Cultural Work
As an anthropologist, you will start your task by analyzing the work of human creative expression that you selected in Module Four. With this work in mind, respond to the questions below. Remember, the insights you gain here will be used to write the copy that will go in the museum exhibit brochure.
Answer the following questions:
Describe the work in detail. Consider the following:
Where did you see the work?
What elements or characteristics stand out to you?
Describe the purpose of the work. Consider the following:
What do you think the creator intended to express?
Were they successful?
Use the work to explore how acts of creative expression impact and are impacted by the people and situations that surround them. Consider the following:
What contributions does the work selected make to continuing a dialogue about that culture and the importance of its works?
State questions you have after thinking deeply about this work. What more do you want to know regarding the following?
The relationship between culture and expression: What is the relationship between the possible intent of the creator and your own interpretation of its meaning?
Explain how your values have shaped and are shaped by your expression and that of others.
Explain how you would approach answering these questions:
What would you study about this work that might address the questions you stated?
Where would you find information to address the questions?

Next, draw conclusions about how the work you selected relates to the humanities:

Explain why you believe humans have a need to express themselves through created works of cultural and historical significance.
Describe a culture shift or event related to the work you selected. This could be a cultural shift that influenced the creation of the work, or it could be a cultural shift that came about because of it.
Explain how a concept or resource you encountered in this course has informed your explanation. Be sure to cite any sources used.
Explain how you think the act of human creative expression impacts and is impacted by the culture in which it was created.
Explain the relationship between human creative expression and the culture in which the work you selected was created using the insights you gained from studying it.
Explain how a concept or resource you encountered in this course has informed your explanation. Be sure to cite any sources used.
Explain how you believe human creative expression can impact issues we deal with in the present day (contemporary to your coursework, not the future scenario posed above). Be sure to be specific about the issues you are addressing.
Use the insights you gained from studying the work you selected to explain how creative expression can impact today’s issues.
Explain how a person or concept encountered in your study of the humanities has informed your explanation. Be sure to cite any sources used.
What to Submit
Your submission should be a three- to four-page Word document with 12-point Times New Roman font, double spacing, and one-inch margins. Two sources are required, one of which must be academic. Sources should be cited according to APA style. Consult the Shapiro Library APA Style Guide for more information on citations.

Compare and contrast essay structure (Links to an external site.)
Introduction: Your introduction — should open generally (with a quotation, anecdote, generalization), and lead into the thesis statement.
All Comparisons (Artworks 1 and 2):
This section — which should consist of several paragraphs — should go through all similarities you find in the two works of art on which you are writing. There should be at least three comparisons (essentially at least three to four paragraphs) in which you give an example from both works of art being compared.
Do not focus on just obvious comparisons. For example, both sculptures are made from bronze but also, compare the techniques, historical context and/or meaning. You may also compare the meaning or content (the message) of both works of art.
All Contrasts (Artworks 1 and 2)
This section — which should consist of several paragraphs — should go through all the differences you find in the two artworks on which you are writing. There should be at least three contrasts (essentially at least three to four paragraphs) in which you give an example from both works being contrasted.
“David” by Michelangelo “David” by Bernini
DO NOT USE THE EXAMPLES ABOVE, CHOOSE YOUR OWN.
Do not focus on just obvious contrasts. For example, one sculpture is made from marble and the other sculpture is carved in marble. Instead, focus on the choice of materials and how the material will add meaning to the work’s message. For instance, the type of stone chosen to depict a pharaoh may be based on the permanence of that type of stone, sandstone vs. diorite, as an example. Contrast the techniques, casting vs. carving, casting is an additive process while carving is a subtractive process. You may also contrast the meaning or content (the message) of both works of art.
DO NOT USE THE EXAMPLES ABOVE, CHOOSE YOUR OWN. You may choose works of art that are not as obviously compatible as the examples above.
Conclusion: This conclusion is wrapping up everything you have just proven in your paper. It should restate the thesis in a new, more official way, and you should feel quite confident in your writing.
Here is a quick breakdown on how the Compare-Contrast Essay should appear, this is basic, you may write more than 10 paragraphs:
Paragraph 1: Introduction (with Thesis)-Maybe start with a quote?
Paragraph 2: Comparison A (Artworks 1&2)
Paragraph 3: Comparison B (Artworks 1&2)
Paragraph 4: Comparison C (Artworks 1&2)
Paragraph 5: Possible fourth comparison detail or writer’s opinion.
Paragraph 6: Contrast A (Artworks 1&2)
Paragraph 7: Contrast B (Artworks 1&2)
Paragraph 8: Contrast C (Artworks 1&2)
Paragraph 9: Possible fourth contrasting detail or writer’s opinion.
Paragraph 10: Conclusion (restate the thesis in a new way, be creative)

Compare and Contrast Essay
Most introductory art history classes will ask students to write a compare and contrast essay about two pieces – examples include comparing and contrasting a medieval to a renaissance painting. It is always best to start with smaller comparisons between the two works of art such as the medium of the piece. Then the comparison can include attention to detail so use of color, subject matter, or iconography. Do the same for contrasting the two pieces – start small. After the foundation is set move on to the analysis and what these comparisons or contrasting material mean – ‘what is the bigger picture here?’ Consider why one artist would wish to show the same subject matter in a different way, how, when, etc are all questions to ask in the compare and contrast essay. If during an exam it would be best to quickly outline the points to make before tackling writing the essay.
Compare and Contrast Example:
Stele of Hammurabi from Susa (modern Shush, Iran), ca. 1792 – 1750 BCE, Basalt, height of stele approx. 7’ height of relief 28’
Compare:
Stele, relief sculpture, Art as propaganda – Hammurabi shows that his law code is approved by the gods, depiction of land in background, Hammurabi on the same place of importance as the god, etc.
Contrast:
Top of this stele shows the relief image of Hammurabi receiving the law code from Shamash, god of justice, Code of Babylonian social law, only two figures shown, different area and time period, etc.
Stele of Naram-sin, Sippar Found at Susa c. 2220 – 2184 bce. Limestone, height 6’6″
Compare:
Stele, relief sculpture, Example of propaganda because the ruler (like the Stele of Hammurabi) shows his power through divine authority, Naramsin is the main character due to his large size, depiction of land in background, etc.
Contrast:
Akkadian art, made of limestone, the stele commemorates a victory of Naramsin, multiple figures are shown specifically soldiers, different area and time period, etc.
Iconography
Regardless of what essay approach you take in class it is absolutely necessary to understand how to analyze the iconography of a work of art and to incorporate into your paper. Iconography is defined as subject matter, what the image means. For example, why do things such as a small dog in a painting in early Northern Renaissance paintings represent sexuality? Additionally, how can an individual perhaps identify these motifs that keep coming up?
The following is a list of symbols and their meaning in Marriage a la Mode by William Hogarth (1743) that is a series of six paintings that show the story of marriage in Hogarth’s eyes.
Man has pockets turned out symbolizing he has lost money and was recently in a fight by the state of his clothes.
Lap dog shows loyalty but sniffs at woman’s hat in the husband’s pocket showing sexual exploits.
Black dot on husband’s neck believed to be symbol of syphilis.
Mantel full of ugly Chinese porcelain statues symbolizing that the couple has no class.
Butler had to go pay bills, you can tell this by the distasteful look on his face and that his pockets are stuffed with bills and papers.
Card game just finished up, women has directions to game under foot, shows her easily cheating nature.
Paintings of saints line a wall of the background room, isolated from the living, shows the couple’s complete disregard to faith and religion.
The dangers of sexual excess are underscored in the Hograth by placing Cupid among ruins, foreshadowing the inevitable ruin of the marriage.
Eventually the series (other five paintings) shows that the woman has an affair, the men duel and die, the woman hangs herself and the father takes her ring off her finger symbolizing the one thing he could salvage from the marriage.
Comparative Analysis:
The comparative analysis starts with a formal analysis of two or more individual pieces, and then adds
another level of discussion that evaluates relevant similarities and differences between the pieces. This added
level is useful in revealing details about trends within historical periods, regional similarities, or growth of an
individual artist over time.
• In describing the individual pieces, keep to the same conventions used when doing an individual formal
analysis.
• Ask yourself why this comparison is relevant. There is a wealth of information in why your professor has
asked for a comparison of two particular pieces.
• Depending on the length and complexity of comparison, one of the two following basic structures will be
more appropriate:
• “Lumping” involves discussing all details of one work, and then all details of the second work. This
method is preferred in lengthy or broad comparisons to avoid zipping back and forth between the works
too quickly. Remember to compare the two works by referring back to the first work when discussing
the second. This will ensure that you don’t simply write two descriptions.
• “Splitting” involves discussing a particular point in both works before moving on to another point. This
method is preferred in comparisons dealing with fine details instead of a broader look at each work as a
whole. Remember to discuss each point evenly to maintain a clear, parallel structure
