Memo

To: CEO

From: elementary division manager

CC:

Date: 9/1/2012

Re: Urgent Elementary Toy

This memo is report about defective product being shipped. This memo also discusses how to handle the defective product and possibly saving Main Event Solution money without hurting customers. This memo also discusses the risk and reward for each situation.

Decision Process

When determine alternative choices for Main Event Solutions, I would use a decision making model. The first step would be to define the problem. Is this issue urgent or important to the company? The second step would be, gather all the information and understand the effects and causes. The third step would be, compare the pros and cons of each option. The fourth step would to choose the best option for the company. The final step explains your decision to the people involved and affected by this decision: I should follow up to ensure proper and effective implementation for this decision.

Alternative choices

I have used decision process to make a judgment regarding the defective whistle. The first choice would be to cancel the order and the shipment. The advantages of this choice would be, public image will be maintained, and prevent scandal. The disadvantage would be the company would lose money and have to remake the toys. This would help the company avoid legal cost. This would cost the company money, but it would save money in the long run, in case the school decided to sue the company.

Financial impact

Main Event Solutions could save money in avoiding claims on defective product. The company may avoid significant financial lost if reorganizations of the funds are handled properly. Investors will observe how the company handles it. The company could avoid impact on stock losses. The financial impact will be less, so recovery will be faster. This sometimes can lead to the stock being boosted.

    Alpha Electronic Components, Inc.: Business Report

    Alpha Electronic Components, Inc., ships 100,000 silicon chips to Beta E-Products Corporation. The chips arrive a week early, on a Friday that is extremely busy on Beta’s receiving dock. Beta’s dockworkers check the bill of lading against the quantity marked on the boxes, but do not exam­ine the chips. The chips are then put in the back of the warehouse until needed in the plant. The next week, when the chips are sent to the plant and unpacked, Beta’s plant manager discovers that the quality is less than that stated in the parties’ contract. Beta contacts Alpha to inform it of the defect. Does Beta have any remedies? If so, what are they? If not, why not?…

In turn, it was Buick's responsibility to inspect the product for defect before sale to the dealerships who in turn would sell to the ultimate purchasers in general public.

    Wgu Human Resources Task 1

    At the beginning of the year the toy Company instituted a work schedule change to keep up with the growth of production of the company. The schedule change consisted of 12 hour shifts with 4 days of work and 4 days off. This change means that some of the work days would fall on a religious holy day. All of the production employees will immediately begin working this new schedule. Due to this new work schedule, a claim has been filed against the toy Company under the Title Vii of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. The employee is alleging that the toy Company’s enforcement of the new schedule policy on shift work is discriminatory because the policy requires the employee to work on their religious holy day. Constructive discharge occurs when working conditions are so intolerable the employee feels forced to resign from their employment. (Glazer, 2009, p. 1). Constructive discharge is part of the Title VII Civil Rights Act of 1964 that prohibits discrimination in employment on the basis of sex, race, color, national origin and religion. ("Title VII," “n.d.”, p. 4). Religion is the…

    Human Resources JDT2 Task 2 part 2

    The world is filled with decisions to be made both in business and from a personal standpoint. All too often however, these worlds cross and an unethical decision could cause a scar on the company that could last indefinitely. In order to teach ethical behavior to the employees of a company one must first demonstrate the behavior themselves. Develop a culture of honesty, trust, and accountability that others will follow and in turn use in their own daily lives. A good standard Code of Ethics within any company will also place in writing the expectations a company has of its employees in the treatment of others, customers and co-workers alike. It is important to recruit, hire, and train management staff that will strictly abide by a Code of Ethics, employees are likely to follow their director and display the behavior shown to them in a presumed means of keeping their jobs intact. Good working strategies on teaching ethical behavior within the company are:…

    Human Resource Final Project

    The two stocks that I chose from the same industry are Verizon Communication and AT&T, Inc. These two companies are from the Telecom Service Industry. On July 12, 2012 I took the closing price for each stock. Verizon’s closing price was $44.67 and AT&T’s closing price was $34.87. So on July 12 buying Verizon I would have made more money compared to if I bought AT&T. I found all of my information on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE). Some financial information that I found about Verizon is that their overall revenue for 2011 was 112.13 billion but they did have a total debt of 51.60 billion. Some financial information that I found about AT&T is that their overall revenue for 2011 was 127.30 but they did have a total debt of 65.71 billion.…

    Product Liability

    Consumers use a variety of products on a daily basis to assist them in accomplishing a task or completing a project and they expect the product to be properly designed and safe to use. However, in the event that a product is defective and causes injury to the person using it, the manufacturer may be liable for the injury and have to compensate the injured person (s). Companies that manufacture products need to be sure they are doing all within their power to assemble products that are free of defects that could accidentally cause harm and cost the company. Product liability is the responsibility of manufacturers, distributors and sellers of products to the public, to deliver products free of defects which harm an individual or numerous persons and to make good on that responsibility if their products are defective (Product Liability, 2011). Products containing inherent defects that cause harm to a consumer of the product, or someone to whom the product was loaned or given, are the subjects of products liability suits (Product Liability Law). Products liability claims can be based on negligence, strict liability, or breach of warranty of fitness depending on the jurisdiction within which the claim is based. If a person(s) is injured while properly using a product that is defective, they have a right to file a claim against the company that would be titled a product liability lawsuit. However, in order to prevail on a product liability claim, the product complained of must be shown to be defective (Product Liability Law, 2011). A defective product causes injury or damage to a person or a person's property because of some defect in the product, its labeling or the manner in which the product was used. There are three types of product defects that incur liability in manufacturers and suppliers: design defects,…

    Green Move

    Three months ago I came to Green Move as a marketing person. During this time I was told that the product, Zero Pedal, which I need to expand the sales to the southwestern part of America, have a “glitch”. The product engineer Doug, who’s also my friend, claimed that the Zero Pedal will accelerates dangerously after the solar panels have been exposed to temperatures exceeding 100 degrees Fahrenheit for four hours. My predecessor also found this glitch, he present a cost per bike to fix the defect to the board. But Robert claims the report is incomplete and has a major divergent with my predecessor. Doug also told me that the Zero Pedal is entirely unregulated because the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration cannot limit the production due to the reason of the bike is not “gas powered”. Generally speaking, I believe we need to fix this glitch before this product goes on shelves, so we can save time and money on “if we not fix the bike”. And the happy ending will be I can finish my job to expand the business and bring more profit to the company and raise my share.…
