Reaction Essay: The Corporation The documentary The Corporation‚ directed by Jennifer Abbott and Mark Achbar and produced in 2004‚ although bias‚ opens many doors for discussion in regard to capitalism and the role of corporations in our lives. I found the documentary to be presented professionally‚ and filled with legitimate facts more so than extreme opinion. The documentary truly outlines the "all-pervasive" role the corporation has taken as the "world’s dominant institution". The film opens

------------------------------------------------- SIMULATION REPORT The objective of the project was to trade on a Market Simulation “STOCK TRACK”‚ from 2/13 to 4/20. We were supposed to try to trade different types of instruments in order to gain more knowledge about they are trade in the real world; and how a strategy which seems good can be overturned by the market circumstances. During this period as a conservative‚ I tried to trade less risky instruments. The qualities that I used to

In the simulation the change in supply was caused by how many apartments were being rented out. The change in demand increased dramatically a new company into town which caused people to want to live closer to work. When the change in demand increased‚ the supply was decreasing because the apartments were filling up and the company only had a set amount of homes to rent out. When the change in demand decreased‚ this caused an increase in supply for the company which means that they were losing

In our first year we used the consensus demand because we did not know the dynamics of the group‚ and we were relying on their expertise to guide us toward a more accurate forecast. As we progressed through the simulation we came to the realization that the consensus

Simulation Review HCS / 405 Midnight Fultz- Student David Catoe- Instructor November 11‚ 2014 The Elijah Heart Center needs to make changes on cost-cutting‚ funding options for equipment‚ and funding options for capital expansion. Doing this simulation review it will show just how to go about making these changes to save money. I will explain as to why I choose what I did in this paper. The cost-cutting options I choose were changing the skill max and reducing agency staff. The reason

Working with a team‚ working for a team and working as a team are very different concepts. This distinction is the biggest lesson I learned from the simulation. A team may refer to a group of people but each member has a specific role to play. The idea of parts joining together to form a whole are analogous to the individual personalities‚ strengths and weaknesses each one brings to complete the team. In our group‚ the leader blended in with the roles of the other members. She would have been more

MAC Development Corporation The McCaffreys are in a sticky situation as they have tied up land for a development project and everything seems to be falling apart. They have deadlines to meet and so many moving pieces that I had to read the Case Study several times to wrap my head around it all. At the start of the Phoenix project‚ there were basically three main puzzle pieces the McCaffreys had to juggle. The first one was the Village of Woodland‚ where the land was located‚ had verbally

Their intention is to use the rainforests resources to make the products that is used to help people with their health from the medicines they create. This scenario has the issue of the rainforest being cut down but not kept up with when it comes to being replenished
