What do you do when the other gas station lowers the price of gas by a nickel or now offers a hot food section?

Research and thoroughly explain at least TWO major threats to the organization, discuss why these threats are present, and what can be done to either remove or reduce them.Think about some of the examples you see every day as you drive around. For example, how many times do you see one gas station on the corner and another gas station right next door or across the street?This would be considered a threat, since they are competing with each other for customers in that area.What do you do when the other gas station lowers the price of gas by a nickel or now offers a hot food section?Write a minimum of at least one full paragraph for each of the threats presented.For each threat, you need to ensure you use relevant business theories, concepts, and practices that are aligned to support the statements and findings.Note that bullet points are not acceptable.Each of these threats must come from a force or forces occurring within a dimension of the general environment within the organization’s external environment (keep in mind a threat can stem from more than one dimension within the general environment).Be sure to include in your analysis the relevant dimension of the general environment from which each of these forces is derived.Factors to consider when you think about company threats:An increased number of new companies offering similar products that shift the customer away from the company’s brand.The physical environment (Is your building in a growing part of town? Is the bus company cutting routes?).Changes in the law and government regulations that drive costs of running the business to increase.Future trends in the economy and changes in the age, race, gender, and culture of those you serve in your area.

Formulate hypotheses that can be used to determine whether the population mean annaual administrator salary in Ohio differs from the nation mean of $90,000.

29)The national mean annual salary for a school administrator is $90,000 a year. (The Cincinnati Enquirer, April 7, 2012) A school official took a sample of 25 school administrators in the state of Ohio to learn about salaries in that state to see if they differed from the national average.a) Formulate hypotheses that can be used to determine whether the population mean annaual administrator salary in Ohio differs from the nation mean of $90,000.b) The sample data for 25 Ohio administrators is contained in the file named Administrator. What is the p-value for you hypothesis test in part (a)?c) Aa=.05 can your null hypothesis be rejected?

Suppose you are curious whether the consumption of Coca-Cola beverages is higher in Atlanta. A sample of 36 individuals from the Atlanta area showed a sample mean annual consumption of 460.4 eight ounce servings with a standard deviation of s=101.9 ounces. Usinga=.05,do the sample results support the conclusion that mean annual consumption of Coca-Cola beverage products is higher in Atlanta?

How would you explain the differences between the use of empirical research data from that of anecdotal data?

Within criminal justice, researchers are often faced with a plethora of anecdotal data with little empirical support for such assertions. We have all, no doubt, heard anecdotes pertaining to gang initiation rites, killers stalking baby sitters, or corpses discovered rolled in carpets by hapless hotel maids. Criminal justice researchers depend primarily upon empirical data as the most useful tools with which to explore the nuances of the issues plaguing society. However, one can always ponder the usefulness of anecdotal data. In contemporary research, there has yet to be a consensus pertaining to the proper place and function of anecdotal data. Jacques (2014) discusses both quantitative and qualitative research methods. After reading the article and Chapter 1 in your primary text, respond fully to the following questions:How would you explain the differences between the use of empirical research data from that of anecdotal data?How do these differences inform how criminal justice data might be evaluated and interpreted in published research findings?Is there a place in formal research for anecdotal data?Your initial post should be at least 400 words in length. Support your claims with examples from the required material(s) and/or other scholarly resources, and properly cite any references

Why would an approach based on monocultural psychology be considered limiting when attempting to deal with a more diverse population?

According to statistics, by the year 2050, 50% of the U.S. population is expected to consist of ethnic minorities. As the United States continues to move toward an increasingly pluralistic society, cultural nuances and differentiation must be acknowledged in the application and practice of forensic psychology. In Chapter 10 of the Bartol & Bartol (2019) text, the issues pertaining to multiculturalism are discussed.As you examine the many issues pertinent to a pluralistic society, answer the following questions in your post:Why would an approach based on monocultural psychology be considered limiting when attempting to deal with a more diverse population?What obstacles could be in existence that could potentially prevent or discourage an immigrant from seeking assistance from social services or mental health facilities?Of the current ethnic groups existing within the U.S., which population has been identified as being the most diverse and challenging for those within the mental health community?Guided Response:Your initial post should be at least 300 words in length. Support your observations with examples from the required materials and/or other scholarly resources, and properly cite any references. Respond to at least two or your colleagues’ posts by Day 7.

Explain Travis Hirschi’s social bonding theory.

Travis Hirshi’s social bonding theory is a form of social control. While other criminological theories attempt to explain why crime occurs, social bonding theory explains why people conform to the norms of society and away from deviant and antisocial behaviors. Many argue the threat of punishment as being a deterrent. However, Travis Hirshi, in his contentions, believes there are other factors beyond punishment that are responsible for conformity. Review Chapter 7 in your primary text, and watchThe Social Bond Theory (Links to an external site.)video, which provides examples of the four elements of the theory (Siegel, 2015; Hiemstra, 2013). In your paper,Explain Travis Hirschi’s social bonding theory.Describe the four elements of social bonding theory.Discuss how the social bonding theory affects conformity in America.Discuss the relationship between social bonding theory and the various sociological schools of crime causation.Your paper mustBe three to five double-spaced pages in length (not including title and references pages) and formatted according to APA style as outlined in theUAGC Writing Center(Links to an external site.).Include a separate title page with the following:Title of paperStudent’s nameCourse name and numberInstructor’s nameDate submittedUse at least five scholarly sources in addition to the course text and the article being evaluated.Document all sources in APA style as outlined in the UAGC Writing Center.Include a separate references page that is formatted according to APA style as outlined in the UAGC Writing Center.

The subject of the report will be decided by the module convenor but students will be able to choose from a list of 6 varied examples.Instructions for assessmentshould strictly NOT exceed 3,000 words and demonstrate clear report style with relevant Harvard references. It is to be a unified whole that answers three questions (see below) focused on the selected organisation. Formative work in weekly seminars will guide students through analytical techniques and processes required to complete the task.For the selected organisation, assume you are an outside consultancy reporting to the Chief Executive. The Strategic Report should:-1). Identify 3 key strategic issues facing the organisation with a clear explanation of why they are “strategic” (20%).2). Analyse fully the resources and key capabilities of the organisation plus key factors that give the company its competitive advantage. (40%)3). Assess the extent to which the organisation’s competitive strategyaddresses its strategic issues, and suggest improvements where theymight be justified. (30%)A further 10% is available for clarity, structure, grammar, correct Harvard referencing and overall professional presentation showing clear report style.Best answers will draw explicitly on strategic concepts and analysis from the module and apply them to the organisation. Clear referencing (Harvard system), professional presentation with appropriate diagrams/tables are required.Again note the report should not exceed 3,000 words. Appendices are allowed outside this limit but NO MORE than 6 pages.How will your work be assessed?Your work will be assessed by a subject expert who will use the marking scheme indicated below. Feedback will be given in the Turnitin/Grademark system with script comments plus overall points. When you access your marked work it is important that you reflect on the feedback so that you can use it to improve future assignments.In this Strategic Report, high marks come from using strategic concepts and analysis from the module clearly applied to the organisation. Harvard referencing, a professional report style plus appropriate diagrams/tables are also required. Outline marking expectations are as follows:-Q1: (20%) After a short introduction, we expect 3 key Strategic Issues with explanations and knowledge of why they are “strategic”. The 3 environments (PESTLE, 5 Forces & internal) should be used as a guide.Q2: (40%) We expect strong course knowledge, clear industry CSFs plus the organisation’s resources & unique capabilities well analysed. Also how unique capabilities link to advantage & CSFs, and their Porter generic strategy.Q3: (30%) We expect an evaluation of how their strategy addresses their issues using the three SAFe tests – plus how it might be improved. A short overall conclusion completes the report.PRESENTATION: (10%) We expect a professional report with clear report style (not an essay) e.g. frontsheet, contents, clear sections, tables & diagrams and relevant Harvard referencing. The word count should not be exceeded by more than 10%.(In addition to marker feedback, a full marking rubric will be available within the Turnitin submission system for student consideration.)Assignment submissions.The Business School requires a digital version of all assignment submissions.

Briefly describe one alternative to incarceration available in your state.

Improving Community CorrectionsIn January 2015, Governor Rick Snyder of Michigan signed two bills into law creating a special commission that would be responsible for “exploring alternatives to incarceration, promoting rehabilitation programs, and making recommendations to the Legislature. The bills aim to improve local alternatives to prison for eligible non-violent offenders and create court consistency across the state” (Michigan House Bills 5828 and 5829, 2015).You have been appointed to a similar commission in your state. Prepare a report in Microsoft Word that addresses the tasks given below. As you can see from the governor’s press release, tasks such as the following are actual real-world tasks that criminal justice professionals may encounter:Briefly describe one alternative to incarceration available in your state.Identify the goal that this program seeks to accomplish (e.g., rehabilitation, deterrence, restoration, etc.).Evaluate the effectiveness of pretrial diversion in preventing recidivism.Evaluate the use of probation in your state. Describe how probation officers may utilize community-based resources for the purpose of rehabilitating probationers.In a report of this type, data should accompany any recommendations to support the points being made. For this assignment, you might find the following resource helpful, along with your textbook, classroom material, and other appropriate outside sources:A National Survey of Criminal Justice Diversion Programs and InitiativesSource:Michigan Office of the Governor.
