Notes on the Final Paper: The Product
Students may select a standard documentation style (APA, MLA, CMS). The paper should be streamlined; appendices and notes may be attached to draw a larger picture for the reader and to provide details that might clutter the main text.

Note on Sources: Books, Journal Articles, Popular Sources, Websites
Researchers use a variety of sources. Books often provide the broad outline of subjects as well as the details of specific interests. The Stevenson University librarians are prepared to help you locate and use books, not just paper books, but electronic books (e-books) as well. Organization and government websites might provide brief outlines or histories of some topics or themes and they certainly provide current statistics. To appreciate the intricacies of marketing strategies or the economic and political climate of an era in which women’s rights were being promoted, one should read broadly – this means one must read books and journal articles. Therefore, unless your topic is one of the few for which little literature exits, you are expected to consult a minimum of twenty sources that are considered “books” and “academic articles.” Please let me know if you cannot locate such materials.

Special Topic: Criminal Justice Research and Writing

Forming Your Argument
In your paper you will ultimately be forming an argument or taking a stance on an issue. For this assignment you are arguing that there is a problem with the Canadian criminal justice system. Again, you will choose which problem you want to focus on for your paper. It is common in criminal justice writing to identify a problem in the criminal justice system, and then form your argument for why this is, based on evidence. For our paper, your “evidence” will be scholarly literature that you are gathering. Thus, this means that you are gathering scholarly research to form your argument. You will use this scholarly research as your evidence to back up your argument.
For instance, your argument might be that police services in Canada are structurally racist. If you were to just state this argument, yet provide no evidence to back it up, then you would not have a strong argument or paper. This is why you gather evidence to show your reader why this is true. This will be presented thematically in the body of your paper. You are proving to your reader that there is a problem with the Canadian criminal justice system, in this example, a structurally racist police system, and present the evidence in a logical way to make your point. Hence why it is also very important to use scholarly resources. Anyone can make an opinion, but if you do not have credible evidence to back up your argument, it will fall apart. This is also why you are cautioned not just to rely on news media or unsubstantiated websites to form an argument. This is not to say that some of these websites will not bring together relevant facts or good arguments. A website might have good points you resonate with, but it is your job as a criminal justice researcher to evaluate the credibility of your argument. Part of this will be gathering reliable research and data to form this argument. This is also why I mentioned earlier not to cite data from news media stories. Always go to the original sources of a research study, that way, you as a criminal justice researcher, can see the original study. Remember, as we learned in our media representations of crime class, news outlets many times have political agendas, so data can be presented very differently depending on which news website you are reading it from.
Objective vs. Subjective
When writing you want to try and be objective. This means you want to present your material in a way that is neutral, and based on research, evidence, statistics and facts. The opposite of this would subjective, which you want to avoid. Subjective writing is based on opinions, feelings or assumptions. Writing objectively makes your paper more reliable. Notably when writing in the field of criminal justice, you do not want to come off as biased, as then your recommendations will not be taken seriously.

However, be careful not to have too many quotes. Always try to write things in your own words. Too many quotes can be distracting. Usually you will only quote something if it is “quotable,” meaning that the way the author has written it cannot be said better in any other way. And if you were to write it in another way, it might lose some of its impact, influence, or meaning.

Southeastern Land Fund, Inc. v. Real Estate World, Inc., 237 Ga. 227 (1976)
237 Ga. 227
Supreme Court of Georgia.
SOUTHEASTERN LAND FUND, INC.
v.
REAL ESTATE WORLD, INC.
No. 31136.
July 9, 1976.
Synopsis
Seller brought action against buyer for breach of a real estate sales contract, and the buyer counterclaimed for return of earnest money paid. The State Court, Hall County, C. Winfred Smith, J., granted seller’s motion for summary judgment, and buyer appealed. The Court of Appeals, 137 Ga.App. 771, 224 S.E.2d 747, reversed, and certiorari was granted. The Supreme Court, Ingram, J., held that if the parties had intended for the $5,000 original earnest money payment and the $45,000 additional earnest money to represent the ‘maximum as well as the minimum sum that can be collected’ as a result of the buyer’s breach, the contract should have made it clear that such was the effect intended by those provisions; accordingly, the lingering ambiguity inherent in those provisions compelled the conclusion that the provisions constituted a penalty and could not be enforced by the seller as proper liquidated damages provisions.
Judgment affirmed in part and reversed in part.
Gunter and Jordan, JJ., dissented.

In deciding whether a contract provision is enforceable as liquidated damages, the court makes a tripartite inquiry to determine if the following factors are present: (1) the injury caused by the breach must be difficult or impossible of accurate estimation, (2) the parties must intend to provide for damages rather than for a penalty, and (3) the sum stipulated must be a reasonable preestimate of the probable loss.

Damages
Operation and Effect of Stipulations
A feature implicit in the concept of liquidated damages is that both parties are bound by their agreement, that is, a nonbreaching party who has agreed to accept liquidated damages cannot elect after a breach to take actual damages should they prove greater than the sum specified, and the breaching party cannot complain that the actual damages are less than those specified as liquidated damages. Code, § 20–1402.

Opinion
*227 INGRAM, Justice.
Certiorari was granted in this case1 for this court to consider whether a provision in a real estate sales contract, providing for the payment of earnest money, should be considered as a provision for liquidated damages. The Court of Appeals concluded this provision was a penalty and could not be enforced.
**342 The litigation began when the seller filed suit against the buyer who defaulted under the contract. The buyer had paid $5,000 in cash as earnest money when the contract was signed. Thereafter, a promissory note for $45,000, representing additional earnest money, was executed and delivered by the buyer to the seller pursuant to the contract. The buyer defaulted at closing and the seller sued the buyer to collect the $45,000 note. The seller obtained a summary judgment in the trial court and the buyer’s motion for summary judgment and counterclaim for return of the $5,000 earnest money were denied.
On appeal to the Court of Appeals, that court reversed in a 6-3 decision and held the earnest money provision of the contract amounted to a penalty. The Court of Appeals also ruled that the buyer’s motion for summary judgment should have been granted by the trial court.
The contract provides: ‘In the event purchaser defaults hereunder after having paid the additional earnest money (45,000) . . . seller shall be entitled to retain all original earnest money ($5,000) paid hereunder as partial liquidated damages occasioned by such default, to collect the proceeds of the indebtedness owed by *228 purchaser as additional earnest money as further partial liquidated damages occasioned by such default, and to pursue any and all remedies available to him at law or equity including, but not limited to, an action for specific performance of this contract.’

If, as the Court of Appeals found, this provision in the contract was a penalty, or is unenforceable as a liquidated damages provision, then the buyer can prevail in asserting a defense to the enforcement of the $45,000 note. If, on the other hand, this is a proper provision for liquidated damages, the the seller can prevail in enforcing the note. Of course, whether a provision represents liquidated damages or a penalty does not depend upon the label the parties place on the payment but rather dependens on the effect it was intended to have and whether it was reasonable. See Lytle v. Scottish American Mortgage Co., 122 Ga. 458, 50 S.E. 402 (1905). Where the parties do not undertake to estimate damages in advance of the breach and instead provide for both a forfeiture (penalty) plus, actual damages, the amount, even though called liquidated damages, is instead an unenforceable penalty. See Foote & Davies Co. v. Malony, 115 Ga. 985, 42 S.E. 413 (1902).

The seller argues that a seller who is not in default may always retain the earnest money paid by the buyer and sue for actual damages above the amount of earnest money received under the contract. We do not agree with this argument and the seller cites no authority that supports it. While it is true that the earnest money feature of a real estate contract distinguishes it to some extent from a wholly executory contract, the same basic contract rules are used to determine available remedies for the breach of a real estate sales contract as for the breach of other contracts. The general contract law of remedies for a breach, as well as the intent of the parties in providing specific remedies in the contract, must be used in analyzing and deciding each particular case.

Depending on the language used in the contract and the discernible intent of the parties, the existence of an earnest money provision in a real estate sales contract can have one of three effects in the case of a breach by the buyer. First, the money could be considered as partial *229 payment of any actual damages which can be proven as the result of the buyer’s breach.2 Second, the money could be applied as part payment of the purchase price in the enforcement of the contract in a suit for specific performance by the seller. Third, the money could be liquidated damages for breach of the contract by the buyer. A provision for earnest money cannot, however, under Georgia law, be used for all three results as we shall see.

Of course, if the real estate sales contract is silent on the remedy to be provided, the non-breaching seller is entitled to his proven actual damages. The ordinary measure of damages is the difference between the contract price and the market value of the property at the time of the buyer’s breach. Shives v. Young, 81 Ga.App. 30, 57 S.E.2d 874 (1950). If the non-breaching seller sues for actual damages, the earnest money then becomes a fund out of which those damages are partially paid if the proven damages exceed the amount of the earnest money.3
8
Even if the real estate contract is silent as to the remedy of specific performance, it is still available as a remedy unless it is specifically excluded as a remedy. In the cases in which rescission has been used as a remedy the parties are put as nearly as is possible back to the status quo ante. See *230 Lightfoot v. Brower, 133 Ga. 766, 66 S.E. 1094 (1909); Walter Tally, Inc. v. Council, 109 Ga.App. 100, 135 S.E.2d 515 (1964); Woodruff v. Camp, 101 Ga.App. 124, 112 S.E.2d 831 (1960). Cf. Higgins v. Kenney, 159 Ga. 736, 126 S.E. 827 (1924).
9
Of course, Georgia law also recognizes that the parties may agree in their contract to a sum to liquidate their damages. Code Ann. s 20-1402 provides: ‘Damages are given as compensation for the injury sustained. If the parties agree in their contract what the damages for a breach shall be, they are said to be liquidated, and unless the agreement violates some principle of law, the parties are bound thereby.’ (Emphasis supplied.) See also Code Ann. s 20-1403.
10
In deciding whether a contract provision is enforceable as liquidated damages, the court makes a tripartite inquiry to determine if the following factors are present:
‘First, the injury caused by the breach must be difficult or impossible of accurate estimation; second, the parties must intend to provide for damages rather than for a penalty; and third, the sum stipulated must be a reasonable pre-estimate of the probable loss.’ Calamari & Perillo, The Law of Contracts, 367 (1970). See Tuten v. Morgan, 160 Ga. 90, 92, 127 S.E. 143 (1924), and Bernhardt v. Federal Terra Cotta Co., 24 Ga.App. 635, 101 S.E. 588 (1919). See also Martin v. Lott, 144 Ga. 660, 87 S.E. 902 (1915).
11
Another feature implicit in the concept of liquidated damages in addition to the above factors is that both parties are bound by their agreement. See Code Ann. s 20-1402. See, e.g., Jarro Building Industries Corp. v. Schwartz, 54 Misc.2d 13, 281 N.Y.S.2d 420 (1967). A non-breaching party who has agreed to accept liquidated damages cannot elect after a breach to take actual damages should they prove greater than the sum specified. The breaching party cannot complain that the actual damages are less than those specified as liquidated damages. The liquidated damages become the ‘maximum as well as the minimum sum that can be collected.’ Mayor etc. of Brunswick v. Aetna Indemnity Co., 4 Ga.App. 722, 727, 62 S.E. 475, 477 (1908).
The problem that this particular contract provision *231 raises is whether the seller has tried to retain a right to elect to sue for actual damages rather than liquidated damages and in so doing has rendered the purported liquidated damages provision unenforceable. This particular paragraph in the contract provides for ‘partial’ liquidated damages. This can be read that the parties intended for the two ‘partial’ liquidated damages provisions to comprise the whole. However, it is also susceptible to the construction that these two partial liquidated damages were not intended to be the sole **344 damages remedy for this particular breach of contract.
12
The contract provision that included the retention of the right to elect specific performance as an alternative remedy to damages poses no problem in our analysis as it does not render a valid liquidated damages provision unenforceable. See, e.g., Wells v. First National Exhibitor’s Circuit, Inc., 149 Ga. 200, 99 S.E. 615 (1919). ‘The law is now well settled that a liquidated damages provision will not in and of itself be construed as barring the remedy of specific performance.’ Rubinstein v. Rubinstein, 23 N.Y.2d 293, 296 N.Y.S.2d 354, 244 N.E.2d 49 (1968). To bar specific performance there should be explicit language in the liquidated damages provision that it is to be the sole remedy. See also Restatement, Contracts, s 378. Thus the retention of the right to elect specific performance in this contract does not render the purported liquidated damages provision invalid. The answer must be found elsewhere in the construction of these contract provisions.
13
14
We think a correct resolution of this issue must be found in the doctrine that ‘in cases of coubt the courts favor the construction which holds the stipulated sum to be a penalty, and limits the recovery to the amount of damages actually shown, rather than a liquidation of the damages.’ Mayor & Council of Brunswick v. Aetna Indemnity Co., supra, 4 Ga.App. p. 728, 62 S.E. p. 478. If the parties intended for the $5,000 and the $45,000 to represent the ‘maximum as well as the minimum sum that can be collected,‘ from the buyer’s breach, the contract should have made it clear that this was the effect intended by these provisions. It is the lingering ambiguity inherent in these provisions of the contract that persuades us to affirm the result reached by the Court of Appeals in construing the contract.
In summary, we hold that these contract provisions are not enforceable under Georgia law as proper liquidated damages provisions in this real estate sales contract. It follows that the trial court erred in granting summary judgment in favor of the seller and we affirm the Court of Appeals reversal of that portion of the trial court’s order. However, the existence of the actual damages, if any, to be proven by the non-breaching seller precludes the grant of the buyer’s motion for summary judgment. Therefore, that portion of the Court of Appeals opinion directing the grant of the buyer’s motion for summary judgment must be reversed.
Judgment affirmed in part; reversed in part.
All the Justices concur, except GUNTER and JORDAN, JJ., who dissent.

We do not decide in this case whether a breaching buyer may sue in the first instance for recovery of earnest money if the seller suffers no actual damages.

Apparently, in many instances where real estate sales contracts provide that earnest money will be retained by the seller to be applied toward seller’s damages, as a result of the buyer’s default, no suit is brought by the seller to prove his actual damages and likewise the buyer does not contest whether the seller has actually suffered damages or the extent of them. In these circumstances, the earnest money is really treated by the parties as liquidated damages, after a breach by the buyer, even though the parties did not agree to liquidate the damages in their contract.

Overview
In Milestone One, you recommended an innovation option (incremental or discontinuous) to the organization from the course scenario. Now that senior management of the company has approved your recommendation, your task is to find an efficient process for your cross-functional team to follow during the development of your innovation. Remember that your perspective is still that of a middle manager for one of the top U.S. producers of luxury and mass-market automobiles and trucks.
You and your team are considering using Cooper’s stage-gate process for new product development. This is a standard process that shows the journey of an idea from conceptualization to the market. You will create a detailed flowchart to share with your cross-functional team on one possible process for implementing the innovation recommendation you have made.
Prompt
Create a PowerPoint presentation with the following requirements, including a detailed flowchart. Ensure the presentation is useful in helping your team understand the stage-gate process. Your presentation should include the following:
Describe the major elements of the stage-gate process (1–2 slides).
How many stages are in the process?
What is the purpose of each stage?
Create a stage-gate process flowchart (1 slide) using proper shapes for each step in your flowchart.
In the flowchart or speaker notes, list an example of an activity at each stage.
In the flowchart or speaker notes, list a decision criterion at each stage using the company. Some examples of decision criteria include:
Filter ideas to the preliminary investigation
Filter projects to business opportunities
Filter projects to product or process development
Filter products to limited launch
Filter products to international marketing
Discuss the implications of using the stage-gate process (1–2 slides).
When is the use of the stage-gate process appropriate?
How could the stage-gate process slow down innovation?
Is the stage-gate process more conducive to an incremental or discontinuous innovation?
Guidelines for Submission
Using PowerPoint, create a presentation that is 3 to 5 slides with detailed speaker notes that highlight the important points you want to emphasize to your team.
