HISTORY
Post your response to the following: Investigative reporters are bolder today than they were 30 or 40 years ago. How do you think the impact of Watergate has contributed to this boldness? Do you think investigative reporters are justified in being bold to get information for the public, or do you think they are too aggressive? Respond to your classmates’ answers by playing “devil’s advocate.” This means when a response posts asserting that investigators are too aggressive, ask how it is that the American public can get at the truth. When a response posts asserting that investigators are justified in being bold to get information, ask how it is that people can preserve their privacy and not be tried by public opinion. Remember that this point/counter-point type of discussion must be conducted with mature courtesy .Click here for more on this paper.......
Discussion Question
Post your response to the following: If you had been a voter at the time of Nixon’s impeachment and resignation, how would the Watergate scandal have affected your perception of government power? Do you think the Watergate scandal has had an enduring effect on the public’s perception of government power today or not? Explain your answer. Respond by considering how later politicians had to respond to reactions similar to those of your classmates’ in order to restore public confidence in government figures .

General Business
Hypothetical:
When John went to Japan to visit a potential vendor for his company, his wife asked him to pick up a string of pearls. The vendor was located in the cultured pearl growing center of Japan. One afternoon when business finished early, John asked the Japanese company marketing manager where was the best place to buy a pearl necklace. The marketing manager said he would be glad to take him and his associate, Keith there.
At the store, John found a beautiful necklace with no price tag but said that he wanted to spend only about $500. The stored salesman paused for a significant amount of time and then said that it just happened that the price of this necklace was $500. This surprised John since similar pearls he and his had seen in the U.S. cost significantly more. However, he rationized that he was in the Japanese city where they grew cultured pearls so they would be cheaper.
John's wife was delighted with the gift and decided to insure it. She took it to be appraised and was told it was worth $2500 wholesale. When John told his associate Keith about the value of the necklace, Keith replied "Didn't you see what was going on at the pearl store?" When you said you were looking to pay only $500, the pearl store salesman looked the marketing manager who nodded and then the salesman agreed to the $500 price. John had no idea of what had gone on.
John did not approve the Japanese company as a supplier.

Critical research method evaluation
evaluate you should bear in mind the accessibility of its research strategies and methods as these will be the primary target of your evaluation in the context of sociological theory and broader social issues involved. The object of this assessment is for you to demonstrate that you can evaluate the research of others. This will necessarily involve a critical appraisal of:
(1) the clarity and coherence of the research aims, objectives and questions;
(2) the appropriateness of the researcher(s) choices of strategies and methods;
(3) whether the research meets its own objectives;
(4) whether its conclusions follow logically from its findings;
(5) its validity and reliability;
(6) its theoretical framing and social relevance.
Remember that this assessment is designed to test your understanding of social research methods and the contexts and purposes in which they are applied, as well as your understanding of the theoretical contexts in which research problems and issues are framed. The model for this assessment is not the essay; it is the book review with a focus on methods. For examples of book reviews consult any major sociological journal, for example, Sociology. Remember that it is important to provide adequate description so that the reader knows what the research is about, but that the aim of the exercise is to provide a critical commentary on the research.

Time-Value Formulas and Cost-Benefit Analysis
Scenario 1: Present-Value Calculation
The following simple present value formula shows the effect of discounting on the
cost of a public policy. In the formula, the discount rate will be set at
(1 + r)time where:
1= a constant
r = a selected interest rate
time= a period of time, usually a year
The formula is
Cost or Benefit
(1+r) time
The calculation occurs like this example of $1,000 over 2 years discounted at
10%:
$1,000 = $1,000 = $1,000 = $826.44
(1+10 percent)2 (1.1)2 1.21
Let’s say a city wants to open a recycling center aimed at reducing waste. The
total benefits of the program are valued at $1,000,000. Three different discount
rates are estimated at 5%, 6%, and 7%. The time period for receiving the
benefits of the program is two years.
Scenario 2
In doing the following exercise, please refer to the discussion in the designated
pages of Chapter of Fiscal Administration on cost benefit and cost-effectiveness
analysis. Cost-benefit analysis is a technique that assumes all costs and
benefits can have a dollar value attached to them. It is a tool and should not be
used as the sole basis for decision making. The result of a calculation is a ratio
between costs and benefits. After all other calculations have been made the
analysis needs to conclude with the calculation the ratio between costs and
benefits. If in the ratio costs exceed benefits the project advice is to not accept
the project and to consider accepting the project if benefits exceed costs.
Consider the following example from the fictitious Swobodaville to build a
Community Windmill Renewable Energy Project. The following has been agreed
upon.
1. Land is already owned. The price of a new is windmill is $150,000. A
minimum of fifty windmills are needed to achieve desired efficiency compared to
the current coal burning method.
2. Staff training costs over three years when considering direct costs including
loss of productive hours while in training will be $55,000 for each of the ten
specialists to be hired.
3. The annual operating and maintenance costs of the machine in the three-year
period will be $35,000 per windmill.
4. The cost of shutting down a portion of the coal plant to achieve the same
energy production as the windmills is $1,000,000.
5. There will be a decrease in staff productivity compared to coal burning
operations. It was calculated on the average hourly rate of the ten specialized
staff of $55 and the number of hours added over the three year-period, 450.
Three current coal plant workers who will lose their jobs is three at a wage of $35
per hour.
6. As a widely supported community project with an investment in every aspect
of the community’s well being, quality of life expected from reductions in pollution
is considered in the cost calculation. The medical center conducted an analysis
has concluded that the value of increased life expectancy should be included as
a benefit to the community. The quality of life of 5,000 residents is expected to
be increased by an average of dollars over three years. The average benefit of a
resident (including all men, women and children) over a three year period is
estimated to be $1500.
7. The three year savings on other pollution damage to buildings and grounds
calculated by the Sierra Club is $7,000,000.
Scenario 1:
• Calculate the present value at each interest rate.
• Note and discuss what happens to the present value at each interest
rate.
Scenario 2:
• Calculate the cost-benefit ratio.
• Determine whether the ratio is positive or negative.
• If positive, would you go ahead and replace a portion of the coalburning
operation or the whole operation? Why or why not?ick here for more on this paper

analysis. Cost-benefit analysis is a technique that assumes all costs and
benefits can have a dollar value attached to them. It is a tool and should not be
used as the sole basis for decision making. The result of a calculation is a ratio
between costs and benefits. After all other calculations have been made the
analysis needs to conclude with the calculation the ratio between costs and
benefits. If in the ratio costs exceed benefits the project advice is to not accept
the project and to consider accepting the project if benefits exceed costs.
Consider the following example from the fictitious Swobodaville to build a
Community Windmill Renewable Energy Project. The following has been agreed
upon.
1. Land is already owned. The price of a new is windmill is $150,000. A
minimum of fifty windmills are needed to achieve desired efficiency compared to
the current coal burning method.
2. Staff training costs over three years when considering direct costs including
loss of productive hours while in training will be $55,000 for each of the ten
specialists to be hired.
3. The annual operating and maintenance costs of the machine in the three-year
period will be $35,000 per windmill.
4. The cost of shutting down a portion of the coal plant to achieve the same
energy production as the windmills is $1,000,000.
5. There will be a decrease in staff productivity compared to coal burning
operations. It was calculated on the average hourly rate of the ten specialized
staff of $55 and the number of hours added over the three year-period, 450.
Three current coal plant workers who will lose their jobs is three at a wage of $35
per hour.
6. As a widely supported community project with an investment in every aspect
of the community’s well being, quality of life expected from reductions in pollution
is considered in the cost calculation. The medical center conducted an analysis
has concluded that the value of increased life expectancy should be included as
a benefit to the community. The quality of life of 5,000 residents is expected to
be increased by an average of dollars over three years. The average benefit of a
resident (including all men, women and children) over a three year period is
estimated to be $1500.
7. The three year savings on other pollution damage to buildings and grounds
calculated by the Sierra Club is $7,000,000.
Scenario 1:
• Calculate the present value at each interest rate.
• Note and discuss what happens to the present value at each interest
rate.
Scenario 2:
• Calculate the cost-benefit ratio.
• Determine whether the ratio is positive or negative.
• If positive, would you go ahead and replace a portion of the coalburning
operation or the whole operation? Why or why not?
The following simple present value formula shows the effect of discounting on the
cost of a public policy. In the formula, the discount rate will be set at
(1 + r)time where:
1= a constant
r = a selected interest rate
time= a period of time, usually a year
The formula is
Cost or Benefit
(1+r) time
The calculation occurs like this example of $1,000 over 2 years discounted at
10%:
$1,000 = $1,000 = $1,000 = $826.44
(1+10 percent)2 (1.1)2 1.21
Let’s say a city wants to open a recycling center aimed at reducing waste. The
total benefits of the program are valued at $1,000,000. Three different discount
rates are estimated at 5%, 6%, and 7%. The time period for receiving the
benefits of the program is two years.
Scenario 2

pages of Chapter of Fiscal Administration on cost benefit and cost-effectiveness
analysis. Cost-benefit analysis is a technique that assumes all costs and
benefits can have a dollar value attached to them. It is a tool and should not be

You are part of the analysis team of a leading financial arm – ’REP Associates’ -
working for a big private equity client – EDGE solutions ltd – who is looking to open
an investment fund, with up to 2 billion invested in different asset classes in the UK
market. They have two speci?c questions for REP Associates: (i) the optimal alloca-
tion to be invested in real estate and (ii) the optimal capital structure that should be
behind real estate investment.
Your division director Dr. Tommaso Gabrieli has required you to produce a tech-
nical report. Word limit: 4,000.1 Dr. Gabrieli is giving you a detailed instructions on
the content and form of the report.Click here for more on this paper.......

Optimal allocation to be invested in real estate. You should consider the follow-
ing asset classes: equities, bonds, direct real estate, indirect real estate. You should
download historical total returns for each asset class. Monthly returns are preferred
but you should also test the implications of different time-periods. For equities, you
should download UK FTSE All Share total returns, for bonds you should download
UK 10 years GILT total returns, for direct real estate you should download UK IPD
index total returns, for indirect real estate you should download the UK EPRA total
returns. On this, you will meet an external consultant from Data-stream who will
offer help and advice on October 17th.

Excluding appendixes, tables and ?gures. The report has to be concise and effective rather than
wordy, 3,000 words is probably the optimal length.

Based on the data, your report should have a descriptive statistics section, where
you will present descriptive statics about the returns of the various asset classes (e.g.
graphs, mean, standard deviations), discuss the risk/return properties (e.g. by pre-
senting the Sharpe Ratios) and discuss the auto-correlation and the correlation be-
tween asset classes.
Then, your report should suggest an optimal portfolio allocation based on the
concept of ef?cient frontier. Dr. Stanimira Milcheva, head of the Financial Strategy and
Management division, will run a number of lectures and workshops helping you to
obtain the necessary technical skills.
You should discuss how the issue of smoothing may affect your optimal allocation
and compute the optimal allocation with de-smoothed IPD returns.
Optimal capital structure. You should use the REIT company Land Securities as a
benchmark. You should compute Land Securities shares historical total returns and
compute the company’s beta (CAPM model). You should use both a balanced allo-
cation (equal weights in equities, real estate and bonds) as well as an equity index
(FTSE All Share) as the market portfolio and explore the different implications.
Based on the beta of Land Securities, and possibly other companies, you should dis-
cuss the return expected by investors in REITS. Exploring the last annual report of
Land Securities, you should compute the typical debt to equity ratio of a REIT. Based

registered nurse
registered nurse
The registered nurse is making a home care visit to a patient recovering from a deep partial thickness burn of the left hand, forearm, and left side of the chest. The RN assesses the wound and asks the patient and family member who assists the patient to describe how wound care is performed. The RN learns that honey has been used instead of the topical antibiotic, silver sulfadiazine (Silvadene), because it is hard for them to clean the wound after the Silvadene is used and the process is very painful. When the nurse asks the patient to rate the pain on a 0-10 verbal pain scale the patient responds “It is an 8. I had so much pain when I was in the hospital I keep having nightmares.”
Discuss appropriate nursing interventions based on this scenario. Would the RN support the continued use of honey or would the RN emphasize the need to only use the Silvadene, which was ordered by the health care provider, for wound care? What else would the nurse consider? What evidence would support the RN’s decision?
