You are the public relations director of a nonprofit hospital in a competitive market in a midsized city located in a metro area of 350,000 people. It is sweeps week for broadcast media. One of the stations is running a series on HIV/AIDS in the community. Recent segments have included those listed below.

Homelessness related to HIV/AIDS
How persons living with HIV/AIDS suffer from being outcasts
How understanding has increased in some circles but prejudice remains in many.
An appealing case of a hemophiliac who acquired HIV/AIDS through transfusion at the university hospital has been reported in the series. The university and its teaching hospital are located elsewhere in the state.

At a staff meeting this morning, you learn that petitions are circulating in the community to request your hospital to convert its former nurses’ residence into a clinic and residential shelter for HIV/AIDS patients.

The hospital no longer maintains a school of nursing. The three-story brick building has been used for miscellaneous administrative purposes since nurses’ training was phased out. The residence is connected to the hospital by an elevated corridor, similar to a skywalk. It does not have facilities for food service or laundry. Nurses always ate at the hospital and the hospital handled their laundry. The residence and hospital are served by common systems for hot water, steam heat, ventilating and sewer. The building predates central air conditioning.

The human resources director reports that the business agent for kitchen and laundry workers, who are represented by a union, has already made informal contacts about this proposal, suggesting that grievances will result, at the very least, and a strike could ensue.

Your director of volunteers expresses concern about reaction of volunteers who now handle many peripheral duties. Your physical plant supervisor, who lives in the neighborhood, says neighbors are already anxious over the possibility of HIV/AIDS patients in their vicinity. Your hospital’s five-year Strategic Plan, which was recently updated, has no mention of developing an HIV/AIDS specialty.

Write a letter (using your own name) to the hospital CEO, John Dolman and the Board of Governors outlining your plan to resolve this issue. Remember, that your letter will be made public to the other audiences and publics. In your recommendations, you should provide both long and short-term strategies that would solve this problem. To solve this problem you should note if additional resources or expenditures would be need to achieve the goals that you define.

When writing the letter you should provide a brief description of the problems, you have found. What are the facts about major issues? Identify facts about key players in the case, the business problem(s) and then rank order the critical issues. Consider relevant information and underlying assumptions. Finally provide your recommendations.

As you write your recommendations, think about the following;

a. How do the cultural values at the hospital relate to communication, technology, information flow and openness?
b. As the hospital goes forward, should it stick to the espoused culture or should it change? How would you recommend that they change?
c. How would you suggest that they resolve this disparity? In other words what should they do?
d. Provide specific suggestions that will help the organization as they go forward.
e. In the closing, highlight benefits of your recommendations. As a PR director, you need to be honest but tactful in your recommendations

Answer 1

Answer:

HIV AIDS is contagious disease. It is responsibility of the healthcare professionals to handle the person with special care. This virus spread quickly in the body of the victim and the person is often unaware of the disease due to very mild or no symptoms.

Explanation:

To: CEO

Park lane Hospital

Central London,

09 - 06 -2021.

Respected Sir,

It is to bring into your knowledge about the spread of HIV/AIDS in the city. The people are unaware about the disease spread and those infected are carrying disease to others. There should be campaign run by the hospital to inform people about the spread of this contagious disease and preventions measures.

There should also be special arrangement for the people infected by the disease to stay and live in a separate house so the spread can be stopped.  The hospital can allow people with symptoms for a free checkup so that more people can come and have their routine checkup.

It is high time because if the spread will increase at the same rate then controlling the disease would become difficult.

Regards,

John Andrews.

You are attempting to value a call option with an exercise price of $109 and one year to expiration. The underlying stock pays no dividends, its current price is $109, and you believe it has a 50% chance of increasing to $142 and a 50% chance of decreasing to $76. The risk-free rate of interest is 12%. Calculate the call option's value using the two-state stock price model.

Answers

Answer:

The value of the call option today is $14.29

Explanation:

The two-state stock pricing model is one that prices are based on the assumption that there is no arbitrage profit opportunity as well as the fact that the call option's value will be the present value(PV) of the expected future winnings for long call.

Now, value of the call option if the prices go up will be;

142 - 109 = $32

While if the prices go down, it will be;

76 - 109 = -$33

The call option in this case can only be utilized when the market value exceeds the exercise price.

Therefore, the expected winnings value after one year will be;

Value after one year = (32 × 0.5) + (0 × 0.5)

Value after one year = $16

We used 0 in the multiplication because the call wouldn't be utilized for when the prices go down.

one year from now the long call can be expected to earn $16 .

Thus, today the present value of this amount will be the price of the call option if we take into cognizance that here will be no arbitrage profit opportunity.

With risk-free rate of interest is 12%, we have;

PV = 16/1.12 = $14.29

The demand function for a certain commodity is given by , where p is the price per unit and q is the number of units. a. At what price per unit will the quantity b. If the price is $1.87 per unit, demanded equal 8 units

Answers

Answer:

(a) The price per unit is $1.83 when the quantity demanded is 8 units

(b) The quantity demanded is approximately 8 units when the price per unit is $1.87

Explanation:

Given

[tex]p = 100e^{-q/2}[/tex]

[tex]p \to[/tex] price per unit

[tex]q \to[/tex] quantity demanded

Solving (a): Price per unit when quantity is 8

This means that we calculate p(8)

We have:

[tex]p(q) = 100e^{-q/2}[/tex]

So:

[tex]p(8) = 100e^{-8/2}[/tex]

[tex]p(8) = 100e^{-4}[/tex]

[tex]p(8) = 1.83[/tex]

Solving (b): Quantity demanded when price per unit is $1.87

This means that:

[tex]p(q) = 1.87[/tex] ---- find q

We have:

[tex]p(q) = 100e^{-q/2}[/tex]

So:

[tex]1.87 = 100e^{-q/2}[/tex]

Divide both sides by 100

[tex]0.0187 = e^{-q/2}[/tex]

Take natural logarithm of both sides

[tex]\ln(0.0187) = \ln(e^{-q/2})[/tex]

[tex]-3.980 = \ln(e^{-q/2})[/tex]

Rewrite as:

[tex]-3.980 = -q/2}*\ln(e)[/tex]

[tex]-3.980 = -q/2[/tex]

Multiply by -2

[tex]7.96 = q[/tex]

[tex]q = 7.96[/tex]

Approximate

[tex]q = 8[/tex]

The standard deviation for a set of stock returns can be calculated as the: Select one: a. variance squared. b. average squared difference between the actual return and the average return. c. average return divided by N minus one, where N is the number of returns. d. positive square root of the variance. e. positive square root of the average return.

Answers

Answer: d. positive square root of the variance.

Explanation:

Standard deviation is used to show the risk on a set of stocks and it is calculated by taking the square root of the variance of those same returns.

The process of finding the standard deviation is to therefore find the average return first and then find the variance of these returns. At this point, the variance will be positive as it is a squared value. Once this value is then taken to its square root, you will have your standard deviation.

Use the following scenario for the question below. A group of 100 people seeks out an insurance company to underwrite health insurance for its members. The expected medical spending for the group is $150,000. Assume a net loading cost of 15 percent. If an additional 10 people, who have expected medical spending of $5,000 per person on average, join the group, the new premium will be approximately: a. $2,100. b. $2,300. c. $1,818. d. $3,090. e. $5,822.

Answers

The new premium given the medical spending and the number of people will be approximately $2,100

How to find new premium

Given:

Number of people = 100Additional people = 10Total = 110Medical spending = $150,000

Medical spending per person (additional) = $5000

Medical spending for additional people = $5,000 × 10

= $50,000

Total medical spending = $150,000 + $5,000

= $200,000

Average per person = Total medical spending / number of persons

= $200, 000 / 110

= $1818.18181818181

Net loading cost = 15%

New premium = 1818.18181818181 + (15% of 1818.18181818181)

= 1818.18181818181 + 272.727272727272

= $2090.90909090909

v. The cash payment of a $750 account payable was posted as a debit to Accounts Payable and a debit to Cash for $750.

Explanation:

The correct record should have been to credit the $750 in the Cash account.  By this double debit entries for a transaction without a corresponding credit entry, the trial balance cannot balance as the debit side will be greater by $1,500 ($750 * 2) than the credit side.  To correct the error, the Cash account will be credited with $1,500.  One of the $750 cancels the earlier error while the second $750 puts the records straight.

Therefore How many units were transferred to the next processing department during the month is 383,000

An investment strategy has an expected return of 21 percent and a standard deviation of 15 percent. Assume investment returns are bell shaped. a. How likely is it to earn a return between 6 percent and 36 percent?

Answers

Answer:

68%

Explanation:

Given :

Mean, μ = 21

Standard deviation, σ = 15

Recall :

Zscore = (x - μ) / σ

P(Z =(x - μ) / σ) - P(Z =(x - μ) / σ)

x = 6 and x = 36

P(Z =(36 - 21) / 15) - P(Z =(6 - 21) / 15)

P(Z = 1) - P(Z = - 1)

Using the Z probability calculator :

P(Z = - 1) = 0.15866

P(Z = 1) = 0.84134

0.84134 - 0.15866

= 0.68268

= 0.68

CWN Company uses a job order costing system and last period incurred $70,000 of actual overhead and $100,000 of direct labor. CWN estimates that its overhead next period will be $85,000. It also expects to incur $100,000 of direct labor cost. If CWN bases applied overhead on direct labor cost, its predetermined overhead rate for the next period should be:

Answers

Answer:

85%

Explanation:

With regards to the above information, the predetermined over head is calculated as seen below.

Predetermined overhead = [(Estimated overhead / Expected labor cost) × 100]

Estimated overhead = $85,000

Expected labor cost = $100,000

Then,

Predetermined overhead = [($85,000 / $100,000) × 100]

Predetermined overhead = 0.85 × 100

Predetermined overhead = 85%

Therefore, the predetermined overhead rate for the next period should be 85%

A point outside (to the right of) the production possibilities curve of a nation implies that this nation is using its resources fully. implies that there are unemployed resources in this nation. is easily attainable for this nation. is not attainable for this nation. Submit

Answers

Answer:

is not attainable for this nation

Explanation:

The Production possibilities frontiers is a curve that shows the various combination of two goods a company can produce when all its resources are fully utilised.  

The PPC is concave to the origin. This means that as more quantities of a product is produced, the fewer resources it has available to produce another good. As a result, less of the other product would be produced. So, the opportunity cost of producing a good increase as more and more of that good is produced.

Point outside the curve or to the right of the curve means that the production level is not attainable given the level of resources

Points inside the production possibilities curve means that the nations resources are not being fully utilised

Factors that cause the PPF to shift  

1. changes in technology.  

2. changes in available resources.  

3. changes in the labour force.  

Assume for the United States that the opportunity cost of each airplane is 50 cars. Which of these pairs of points could be on the United States' production possibilities frontier?a.

(300 airplanes, 25,000 cars) and (200 airplanes, 40,000 cars)

Answers

Answer: b. (200 airplanes, 12,500 cars) and (150 airplanes, 15,000 cars)

Explanation:

The opportunity cost of an airplane is 50 cars. This means that if the number of planes produced were reduced by 50, the number of cars should increase by:

= 50 * 50

= 2,500 cars.

In option B, the airplanes were 200 and then reduced by 50 to 150. This led to an increase in cars of:

= 15,000 - 12,500

= 2,500 cars

Option B therefore satisfies the constraints and is correct.

Last month when Holiday Creations, Inc., sold 35,000 units, total sales were $300,000, total variable expenses were $234,000, and fixed expenses were $38,700.
Required:
1. What is the company’s contribution margin (CM) ratio?
2. What is the estimated change in the company’s net operating income if it can increase total sales by $2,500?

Answers

Answer:

See below

Explanation:

1. Contribution margin ratio

= (Sales - Variable cost) / Sales

Sales = $300,000

Variable cost = $234,000

Contribution margin = ($300,000 - $234,000) / $300,000

= 0.22

= 22%

Hence, contribution margin ratio is 22%

2. Change in the net operating income if it can increase total sales by $2,500

Contribution margin of $2,300 = $2,300 × 22%

= $506

Operating income for $300,000 sales is

= Sales - total variable expenses - fixed expenses

= $300,000 - $234,000 - $38,700

= $27,300

If sales is $302,500 the net operating income would be

= $27,300 + $506

= $27,806

• It therefore means that the net operating income will increase by $506

c.both securities earned the same average annual rate of return.

d.)it is impossible to calculate the securities rates of return based on this information.

Answers

Answer:

A

Explanation:

The formula for calculating future value:

FV = P (1 + r)^n

FV = Future value  

P = Present value  

R = interest rate  

N = number of years

Security A : 11 = 1( 1 + r)^15

11^(1/15) =  1( 1 + r)

1.173 = 1 + r

r = 1.173 - 1

r = 17.33%

Security A : 16 = 1( 1 + r)^15

16^(1/15) =  1( 1 + r)

1.20 = 1 + r

r = 1.2 - 1

r = 0.2

r = 20%

Security B earned a higher average annual rate of return as 20% is greater than 17.33%

Jolene invests her savings in two bank accounts, one paying 3 percent and the other paying 9 percent simple interest per year. She puts twice as much in the lower-yielding account because it is less risky. Her annual interest is 6015 dollars. How much did she invest at each rate?

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

Let us assume X be the amount invested at 3%

And, Y be the amount invested at 9%

So,  

0.03X + 0.09Y = $6,015 ........(1)

 X = 2Y ...........(2)

Now put the value of X in equation 1  

 0.03(2Y) + 0.09Y  = $6,015

 0.06Y + 0.09Y = $6,015

 0.15Y = $6,015

Y = $40,100

 X = 2 × $40,100 = $80,200
