How should the U.S. move forward in its trade with China, despite the differences in deep, underlying assumptions between these two macrocultures?

Welcome to the Unit VI discussion board! to read the unit lesson and readings before posting, so they can inform your post. Begin by reading the unit lesson first.

In this unit’s discussion board, we will discuss how to apply Model II values within a global society, as companies from different macrocultures (e.g., American culture, Chinese culture) experience conflict. Begin by watching the following video, located in the Films on Demand database within the Waldorf Online Library:* (48 minutes)*If this video is no longer available through the Films on Demand database, instead watch the following video from the Films on Demand database: “China Inside Out: Building Relationships with the Next Superpower.”
Use this video to inform your discussion board post, and include the following elements in your post:

Discuss the espoused values and the real values of one of the individuals, organizations, or macrocultures included in this video. 

Also, discuss the clues you observed that may indicate its values and deep, underlying assumptions.

Based on who you are and the lens through which you see the world, how did your own perspective influence how you interpreted the characters portrayed in the video?

In support of Model II values, how should the U.S. move forward in its trade with China, despite the differences in deep, underlying assumptions between these two macrocultures? 

As always, be sure that your discussion is respectful, as you seek to understand yourself and other people!

Prepare a tax research memo indicating how Ray should report his gambling winnings and losses.

Tax Problem:

Your client, Ray, was overly stressed and quit his job as a corporate executive. Rather than finding a new desk job, Ray decided he would devote his newly found free time to betting on horse races. Ray devoted a significant amount of time to studying the horses and race related information. In fact, he spent more than 60 hours each week on racing activities. Having previously worked as an executive, Ray kept very detailed accounts of his wagers, wins, and losses. In the prior year, Ray reported net winnings of $100,000 on bets of $113,000, thus resulting in a net gambling loss of $13,000 for the year.

Your manager has asked you to prepare a tax research memo indicating how Ray should report his gambling winnings and losses.

What techniques associated with encouraging innovation and entrepreneurship at a country scale

Much of the focus of this class has been on how countries, institutions, entrepreneurs, and others can systematically encourage innovation and entrepreneurship, and how these can be leveraged into sustainable economic gains. Write a paper that takes the lessons learned from this research and analysis and applies it to individual enterprises. Be certain to answer the following questions:

• What techniques associated with encouraging innovation and entrepreneurship at a country scale can be successfully applied to individual enterprises?
• How can the principles and practices associated with microenterprise and microfinance be applied to encourage innovation and entrepreneurship within individual enterprises?
• How must these techniques be adapted to fit in the enterprise context?
• What are the unique challenges associated with encouraging innovation and entrepreneurship at the enterprise scale vs. the country scale?
• What institutional mechanisms can be put in place by governments and other entities that can help encourage innovation and entrepreneurship?

Wherever possible, apply your answers to your specific organization context and use examples from your own experience to support your views. Be sure to reference any case studies that you may have come across that illustrate how these techniques have been applied successfully to individual enterprises. Your paper should be five to eight pages in length.

Population pyramid comparisons

Population Pyramid comparisons

 Population pyramids show the age structure of the population of a country or region. Different growth patterns caused by varying cultural values, war events or both help shape the pyramid. You will obtain the data (population pyramids) from www.census.gov/population/international/data/idb//for three different countries. The three countries (Ethiopia, Indonesia and UK) will each have a population pattern that may be recognized as either in rapid growth, in stable growth or in growth decline. After you obtain the pyramids, copy and paste them into your assignment and then identify which of the three patterns each country demonstrates.

Please write a brief essay comparing the three pyramids. Consider historical events, the present global population structure and the influence, if any, of the past and the present on future population growth. Compare and contrast these pyramids. Which country will have the greatest population increase? Why? What problems might these countries be facing? You may use additional information from library sources or the Internet.
