McGee Cake Company Mini Case

/in /by

The McGee Cake Company
In early 2005, Doc and Lyn McGee formed the McGee Cake Company. The company produced a full line of cakes, and its specialties included chess cake*, lemon pound cake, and double-iced, double-chocolate cake. The couple formed the company as an outside interest, and both continued to work at their current jobs. Doc did all the baking, and Lyn handled the marketing and distribution. With good product quality and a sound marketing plan, the company grew rapidly. In early 2010, the company was featured in a widely distributed entrepreneurial magazine. Later that year, the company was featured in Gourmet Desserts, a leading specialty food magazine. After the article appeared in Gourmet Desserts, sales exploded, and the company began receiving orders from all over the world.
Because of the increased sales, Doc left his other job, followed shortly by Lyn. The company hired additional workers to meet demand. Unfortunately, the fast growth experienced by the company led to cash flow and capacity problems. The company is currently producing as many cakes as possible with the assets it owns, but demand for its cakes is still growing. Further, the company has been approached by a national supermarket chain with a proposal to put four of its cakes in all of the chain’s stores, and a national restaurant chain has contacted the company about selling McGee cakes in its restaurants. The restaurant would sell the cakes without a brand name.
Doc and Lyn have operated the company as a sole proprietorship. They have approached you to help manage and direct the company’s growth. Specifically, they have asked you to answer the following questions.

What are the advantages and disadvantages of changing the company
organization from a sole proprietorship to an LLC
What are the advantages and disadvantages of changing the company
organization from a sole proprietorship to a corporation
Ultimately, what action would you recommend the company undertake?
Why?

jury assignment (A)

/in /by

i will provide example soon

THE CASE OF THE DRIVER WHO HAD ONE TOO MANY

Sam was insured under a life insurance contract policy that excluded death due to suicide. The policy had a face amount of $1 million. Two weeks after taking out the policy, Sam was driving home from his promotion party while intoxicated. He lost control of his car when a dog ran in the road and was killed when the car hit a utility pole. There was no one else involved in the accident. The weather was clear and the road was in good shape and well lighted. Sam’s insurance company refused to pay and Sam’s wife sued the company to force payment.

The Trial

Testimony at the trial proved conclusively that Sam was legally intoxicated when he left the party. There was also proof that there was nothing in the policy about lack of coverage in the event of an accident due to intoxication.m

The Arguments at Trial

The insurance company’s attorneys argued that benefit provisions apply only to death due to accidents – unintended and unavoidable mishaps – and that, although Sam appeared to have been in an accident, his death was due to his being intoxicated and therefore not an accident. They further argued that this concept was so logical that it did not need spelling out in the insurance policy. The estate’s attorneys argued that because the policy was silent about accidents due to intoxication, the benefit provision should apply regardless of the cause of the accident. The parties had a contract and all exclusions must be spelled out in the contract in order to be effective.

Questions to Discuss

  1. Who do you think has the stronger argument, the insurance company or Sam’s estate? Why?
  2. If you were the jury hearing this case, how would you decide? Why?
  3. What do you think the rule regarding coverage of accidents due to use of drugs or excessive alcohol should be?

Please write a
paragraph with your opinion based on the text bellow. Please include citations
and references in case you need to used for the question.

The first step in any care plan, is to assess. First we must assess the patient, what are the possible causes for her not wanting to breastfeed. What is her perception of breastfeeding, how much information does she have about the benefits of breastfeeding? Once we know why we can then proceed to formulate a plan. First teach about the different benefits of breastfeeding: physical, emotional, healthwise and even financial. Although breastfeeding is a natural process it is far from easy both for mother and baby. that is where we as nurses and even specialized lactation consultants come in. We know the importance of breastfeeding and the benefits and now we must share that with the new mother. Armed with all this information the mother still decides not to breastfeed, then we must teach about formula feeding. How much, how often? What is normal as far as bowel movements and feeding? other ways to ensure that the infant bonds with the mother for example: placing the baby on the chest for skin to skin.

University of Missouri (A) – Symbolic Frame Discussion Board

/in /by

Using the Symbolic Frame, choose some symbol – or some other situation in which organizational meaning was at issue – in the University of Missouri case, and discuss in-depth how the Symbolic Frame can be used to inform our understanding of the University of Missouri case.

How significant of a role do you believe symbolism played in the University of Missouri case study. Be sure that you incorporate 1 or 2 assumptions of the Symbolic Frame in your response.

Remember to perform some outside research, to properly cite your sources, and to demonstrate evidence of critical thinking in your response.

Before the end of Module 4, be sure that you have responded to a minimum of two of your classmates’ postings. Remember that the Discussions are an assignment – they equate to a full 20% of your final grade; consequently, they require a minimum of 20% of the total effort you put forth into the overall course. In this context, the Discussions require additional research on your part, critical thinking, and graduate-level presentation (grammar, spelling, proper citation, etc.).

Background Information

In Module 4, you will write the final chapter (Chapter 4) of your 25+ page session-ending thesis-style paper. Following are instructions for proper formatting of the final paper:

  • Use of proper APA Style of formatting, referencing, and writing is required.
  • The final thesis-style paper requires the following: Title Page, Table of Contents, and References.
  • The final paper will consist of four (4) chapters (Module 1-4 Case).
  • The body of the final paper must be a minimum of 25 pages in length (not including title page, table of contents, end references, end tables, end figures, or appendices included with the paper).

Bolman and Deal (2003) liken the organization to a metaphorical “temple”– i.e., to a place in which certain things are revered by its members: “An organization, like a temple, can be seen as a sacred place, an expression of human aspirations, a monument to faith in human possibility. A temple is a gathering place for a community of people with shared traditions, values, and beliefs” (p. 405). Similar to temples, organizations need leaders who understand symbols, and their import for the creation of meaning, and for guiding the organization.

Read the following excerpt from Bolman, L.G. & Deal, T.E. (2003). Reframing organizations: artistry, choice, and leadership (3rd ed.). San Francisco: John Wiley. Note the assumptions of the Symbolic Frame, as you will use these to guide the writing of your Case:

Assumptions of the Symbolic Frame

“The symbolic frame distills ideas from these diverse sources into several core assumptions:

  • What is most important is not what happens but what it means.
  • Activity and meaning are loosely coupled; events have multiple meanings because people interpret experience differently.
  • In the face of widespread uncertainty and ambiguity, people create symbols to resolve confusion, increase predictability, find direction, and anchor hope and faith.
  • Many events and processes are more important for what is expressed than what is produced. They form a cultural tapestry of secular myths, heroes and heroines, rituals, ceremonies, and stories that help people find purpose and passion in their personal and work lives.
  • Culture is the glue that holds an organization together and unites people around shared values and beliefs.

The symbolic frame sees life as more serendipitous than linear. Organizations function like complex, constantly changing, organic pinball machines. Decisions, actors, plans, and issues continuously carom through an elastic, ever-changing labyrinth of cushions, barriers, and traps. Managers who turn to Peter Drucker’s Effective Executive for guidance might do better to study Lewis Carroll’s Through the Looking Glass. But all the apparent chaos has a deeper sense of emblematic order. In recent years, the importance of symbols in corporate life has become more widely appreciated.

Symbols embody and express an organization’s culture: the interwoven pattern of beliefs, values, practices, and artifacts that defines for members who they are and how they are to do things….the various forms symbols assume: myths, visions and values; heroes and heroines; stories and fairy tales; ritual; ceremony; and metaphor, humor, and play. All these are basic elements of organizational culture” (Bolman & Deal, 2003, p. 242-3).

Critical analysis write-up assignment #1
Flat World
Due: Thursday Feb 8 11:59 pm

Here is the first of a series of assignments to help you develop critical thinking skills. As you will see
throughout the course, there are different views to solve a given a problem. This is usually the case in
the work environment, meaning that people with different background, knowledge and expertise may
have different approaches to solve or deal with real business issues. Therefore, oftentimes there are
more than one correct answer. The goal of the critical write-up assignments is to encourage your critical
thinking (supported by research and evaluation) and help you express your view in a logical and
systematic manner.

Description:

Thomas Freidman, three time Pulitzer Prize winner journalist, argues that “the world is flat.” In other
words, globalization has leveled the world, and today organizations and countries have fair chance to
compete in the global market. He outlined 10 forces that have flattened the world (refer to the video
we watched in class, your notes, and the book summary online or on the slides).

In this assignment, you need to write a short essay to answer the following questions.

  1. 1) Is the world really flat? What is your opinion? During last few years, do you think the world
    becoming more FLAT or ROUND? Why? Support your arguments with external references and
    provide examples that are relevant to your opinion.
    Note: you may agree or disagree with the idea (both views are okay). What matters is that you
    provide reasonable justification, evidence, and/or support for your ideas.
  2. 2) Point out and discuss two potential drawbacks of a flat world. Support your arguments with
    external references and provide examples.
  3. 3) Pick a flattener that is the most important in your opinion. Discuss why you think it is important
    and support your arguments with external references.

Case Study Analysis – Enron Corporation

/in /by

Enron would have been a challenge for even for the most seasoned of criminal investigators. No one criminal investigator has the technical expertise or experience to handle a case of this magnitude. At the time, Enron was the seventh largest company in the United States and was the darling of Wall Street. The lead criminal investigator would have to first begin placing the crime in context as to the size of the corporation; the crimes that were alleged to have been committed; the number of victims, if known; and the number of defendants. This information will be of paramount importance to the DOJ attorneys who would be prosecuting the case and lead agency who would be responsible for a major portion of the funding. Typically, when multiple agencies come together in a task force to investigate a white collar crime, the crime at issue is a pervasive, serious crime, as with Enron. When investigating such a crime, challenges are bound to surface. This is especially true when you integrate multiple law enforcement agencies into the investigation and form a multiagency task force. From a multiagency response standpoint, building on the strengths of different agencies and individuals who are working on the investigation makes good sense. When working with different agencies, and within the parameters of law, ethics, and agency protocols, the investigators should strive to maximize resources and knowledge for those involved in the investigation.

Once a case is initiated, task force members need to develop a working foundation for the criminal investigation and potential legal issues that could surface in conjunction with the investigation. There are many potential issues primarily related to the 4th and 5th Amendments that could surface in conjunction with grand jury testimony, executing a search warrant, processing a scene, and interviewing witnesses and suspects. These issues can be compounded in multiagency investigations such as the BP and Enron cases. It is important to understand how jurisdiction, agency protocols, agency standards, and law come into play to provide a basis for a successful investigation and case conclusion. Enron has been widely recognized as the quintessential example of a white collar crime case that played out in the federal system. The case would become the largest and most complex white collar investigation in the history of the FBI and spawn a unique investigative task force of prosecutors, agents, and analysts in Houston and Washington, D.C., each uniquely skilled at drilling deep into balance sheets and following the money. Their job: to learn how company officials perpetrated fraud on such a grand scale, build a strong criminal case, and hold accountable those who are responsible for the fraud (FBI, 2011).

More often than not, the key for conducting a successful criminal investigation begins with a search warrant and followed by issuance of grand jury subpoenas. Your focus in the early stages of the investigation will be on the crime scene, preservation of the scene, interviewing witnesses, and seizing evidence. Adherence to policy and procedure and agency protocols is of paramount importance and the lead agency will generally brief team members on the standard operating procedures (SOPs) that will be in effect on the crime scene. In the Enron case, the FBI was the lead agency and executed a consent search of Enron’s 50-story corporate headquarters building. The search lasted 9 days as investigators unearthed critical documents and emerged with over 500 boxes of evidence. At the same time, agents conducted more than 100 interviews that helped identify fresh leads for investigators (FBI, 2011).

Instructions

For this assignment, assume the role of an agent trainee for the FBI at the training academy in Quantico, Virginia. In this role, you are studying a broad range of subjects on the fundamentals of law, ethics, behavioral science, interviewing and report writing, basic and advanced investigative, interrogation, and forensic sciences. For one of your classes, you have been asked to conduct a case study analysis on a major white collar crime case. You chose the Enron case.

Using the resources provided, conduct a case study analysis on the Enron Corporation and write a 4–5-page paper on the analysis. Use the Case Study Template given in the resources.

In your case study analysis:

  • Provide an examination of the investigation concepts in the context of the case study. The investigation concepts should include:
    • A short description of what happened.
    • Names of the offenders (both individuals and business entities). Include full names and occupations.
    • Time period over which the offense occurred.
    • Number and type of victims. Victims can include employees, consumers, investors, or governmental agencies.
  • Assess the legal implications in the context of the case study by identifying the following:
    • What are the alleged violations (charges)?
    • When and where did the violations occur?
    • What are the amount and type of losses?
  • Examine the techniques in evidence collection and documentation in the context of the case study by including the methods used to:
    • Gather evidence.
    • Document evidence.

You will complete your work in the Case Study Template, which provides you with the required sections and which you can edit and change as much as you like. When you are happy with your finished work, preview it, make more changes if you like, and then print a PDF file. It is the PDF file or a Word document (you can convert PDF files to Word documents) that you will submit first to Turnitin and then to your instructor for grading.

Note: If you prefer to just work in a Word document, you may skip using the Case Study Template, but you must be sure to include the sections shown in the template in your paper.

Requirements

Your paper should meet the following requirements:

  • Written communication: Must be free of errors that detract from the overall message.
  • Resources and citations: Format according to current APA style and formatting guidelines.
  • Length of paper: 4–5 typed, double-spaced pages, not including the title page, abstract, and reference page.
  • References: A minimum of three references.
  • Font and font size: Times New Roman, 12 point.
