Technology

For this assignment, read the scenario and answer the questions below in paragraph format.

Scenario

Amy’s brother Bob has financial problems. Bob was advised by his
financial planner and his lawyer that he will not be able to free
himself from his problems, and rebuild his credit until he pays a past
due debt owed to the IRS. Amy had no financial interest in his welfare,
but decided to make a contract with him.

To induce Bob to get his affairs in order, Amy promised to drive
Bob’s old car in a demolition derby at the county fair this month. In
return Bob promised to pay the IRS.

Amy has now driven in the demolition derby. She lost, but completed
the event. Bob refuses to fulfill his promise. He claims that the
agreement implied that she win the derby, even though there was no
mention of winning.

Bob also claims that the consideration is invalid, that it is
illegal, vague and unreasonable. Bob claims that there was no contract,
just an exchange of sham promises. He claims that Amy’s promise was of
no benefit to him because he had no financial stake in the demolition
derby unless she won and split a prize with him. Bob also claims that
Amy will receive no benefit if he pays the IRS. Bob claims that it is
illegal for a court to condition a contract on a loss in a contest like
the demolition derby, although he can’t find a statute or case that
says it is illegal.

Requirements

Respond to Bob’s claims. Quote applicable portions of your readings,
and then rephrase them. Use citations for both the quotations and
rephrases. Then, apply the concepts you found to the scenario, in your
own words.

  • The essay should be one to two pages in length and include at least three in-text citations.

Integrated Project Management Tools

Choose a project where you were a team member or Project Manager that lasted more than three months. Write a two- to three page paper that identifies the importance of integrated project management tools. The introduction should describe the industry involved, high level deliverables of the project, and the number of resources assigned to the project. The body of the paper needs to describe at least three of the following tools that were used for building an integrated project management system, and if these tools were effective or not.

  • Generic WBS
  • Scheduling System
  • Work Authorization System
  • Decision making process
  • Integrated cost or scheduling system
  • Project Status Reports

Your conclusion should be a summary of your essay and should repeat the main ideas. In academic writing, a conclusion serves to remind the reader of what the paper is about and allows you to make a final point without introducing new information. The paper should include a minimum of two scholarly sources, in addition to the text.

Answer these questions each with the word limit

1. In no more than 200 words, briefly explain Jane Tompkins’ exigency and kairos in “Indians: Textualism, Morality, and the Problem of History.”

2.What do deliberative arguments typically aim to do? Explain and provide an example of a current deliberative argument.

4.

No introduction, conclusion, or Works Cited page needed–just get right into the analysis. Oh, and make sure to use the literary present tense and use those pesky apostrophes correctly.

Still another society that you might find interesting is the Taureg agricultural society of the West African Sahara.

At the end of each unit, you need to turn in a paper that connects all the movies (and what

you learned from them) that you watched for that unit into a broader thematic analysis.

This paper can draw on your smaller movie reflections/responses, but it should be

dramatically different in style and substance. This paper (at least 4 pages) will be broader

about politics, rather than the specific topics within the individual movies. The professor

will provide prompts and more detailed instructions.

A, B, C, and D share residual profits and losses in a 4:3:2:1 ratio.

Liabilities at the date of dissolution total $100,000, and noncash assets equal $105,000. During the first month of liquidation, assets having a book value of $55,000 were sold for $31,000. During the second month, assets having a book value of $32,000, were sold for $28,000. During the third month, the remaining unsold assets were determined to be worthless. The partners receive the maximum allowable payment at the end of each month.
