Mgt411 VU Current GDB No. 2 Spring 2012 Solution, Last Date 14 June 2012

Prices of common stock of Cement Manufacturing Association (CMA) are increasing on daily basis. New investors are more enthusiastic in purchasing the CMA’s stock due to the belief that the company’s stock prices will tend to increase more in the days to come. Hence, at present the investment in this stock will be very beneficial for them. So, with the expectation to sell this stock at higher prices in the future could give them huge gain. However, the market analysts keeping an eye on the fundamental value of CMA’s stock are of the view that the stock prices of the company are overvalued, thus not representing their true values. According to these analysts, this stock will not be able to maintain its current trend of price increase in the future and will be forced by the market mechanism to adjust its price to its fundamental value.

Requirement:

Considering the above scenario, do you agree that this price hike is beneficial for the country’s economy in general and for the investors in particular? Support your answer with logical reason.

Solution:

An overvalued stock market will be the ultimate goal of every market participants. Everyone from the individual stock investor to the fund managers and government needed an overvalued stock market. Let us examine each and every one of them individually.

From an individual investor point of view, it is certainly not in the best interest for them to have an under-performing stock market. If the stock market persistently under performs other assets, then investors will pull out their investments from the stock market and invest in say money markets if they offer higher rates of return. So in order to prevent investors from pulling out of the market, the insiders and big money will always try to create an overvalued market.

Politicians need an overvalued stock market to gain popularity especially when election is around the corner. When the stock market is strong, no one will benefit more than the politicians. This is because when everyone is making money from the market, no one seems to care how the politicians run the economy even if they run it to the ground. The present government will surely be voted into office again even if there are corrupted to the core. The people who are able to influence the public are too occupied with making money and hence they will have less interest in who is running the country and who is being done to it. All they care is whether the market will continue going upwards.

Mutual funds managers and brokers also want an overvalued stock market because their earnings are based on commissions. Mutual fund manager’s income is based directly on the percentage of the funds valuation. The higher the valuation the more income they will receive. Mutual fund managers need an ever increasing market to keep selling their products to unsuspecting investors by telling them that the market will keep going up and making new highs.

Stock Broking firms too through their brokers always engaged in the so called ‘hyped-up selling’ of shares to their uninformed clients, telling them that every dip is an opportunity to accumulate more shares. This will nonetheless increase their earnings by doing more trades and hence more commissions.

Corporations also need an overvaluation of the stock market. The reason being most of the executives wealth are tied to their stock holdings in the company either through Employee Stock Option Scheme (ESOS) and Stock splits. So it is not in their interest to have a beat down stock market.

hope its help you.

I.  INTRODUCTION

A.  Attention material/Credibility Material: How do you feel when you have to wait for something you really, really want? What if it was something you couldn’t live without? Well, my cousin was five years old when he found out he needed a new kidney. He went on the organ waiting list right away. He was called twice during a six month span that they had a kidney available only to find out that the kidney wasn’t a good match. He had to wait again. The third time was a charm. A small adult was in an accident and his kidney was a good match. This story had a happy ending but so many do not.

B.  Tie to the audience: One of the people on the waiting list for an organ transplant might be someone you know.

C.  Thesis and Preview: Today I’d like to talk to you about first, the need for organ donors in our area, second, how you can become an organ donor after you die, and finally, how your family and organ donor recipients benefit from you donation.

[Transition into body of speech]: I’ll begin by telling you about the need for organ donors.

II.  BODY

A.  People around the world but also right here in Minnesota, Wisconsin, Iowa, and Illinois, need organ transplants and they need our help.

1.  The problem is that there is a lack of organs and organ donors who make organ transplantation possible.

a.  The need is many organs and tissues such as the heart, lungs, liver, kidneys, pancreas, corneas, bone, skin, heart valves, and blood vessels(Iowa Statewide Organ Procurement Organization undated brochure).

b.  A new name is added to the national waiting list every 16 minutes. That means that 3 people will be added to the list during the time we are in class today.

1) The problem is that 10 people will die each day waiting for an organ transplant (LifeSource: Questions and Answers).

2) The reason is that are only on the average 5,000 donors nationally per year                     (LifeSource: Statistics).

c. You can choose to donate any needed organs or you can specify which organs or tissues you wish to donate.

2.. Organ donation is very important.

a.  The following poem by Robert Test entitled, "To Remember Me," shows the importance of organ donation.

"Give my sight to the man who has never seen a sunrise, a baby’s face or love in the eyes of a woman. Give my heart to a person whose heart has caused nothing but endless days of pain… Take my bones, every muscle, every fiber and nerve in my body and find a way to make a crippled child walk…Take my cells, if necessary, and let them grow so that, someday, a speechless boy will shout at the crack of a bat and a deaf girl will hear the sound of rain against her window (South Dakota Lions Eye Bank, undated brochure). 

b. Not only is this a problem nationally but also it is a big problem right here at home in the Midwest.

1)  Nationally, there are over 62,000 people waiting as of October 7, 1998. As of October 7, 1998, there are 1,422 people from Minnesota, North Dakota, South Dakota, and part of Wisconsin that are on the organ waiting list (LifeSource: Statistics).

2)  The sad part is that there have only been 104 donors in the Midwest so far from January 1998 through August 1998 (LifeSource: Newsnotes).

[Transition: I’m sure that you can see the need for people like you to donate your organs. The majority of this class has already said they would like to donate their organs when they die. But you might be asking, well, how can I make sure my organs are donated after I die? Let me tell you.]

B.  This is how you go about making sure your organs are donated.

1. Talk with your family about your decision. They will be involved in the donation arrangements when you die. If they do not know your wishes of becoming a donor, your wishes may never be carried out.

2. Mark your driver’s license so that your license indicates your intent to donate. Each state varies.                      

a.   Fill out, sign and carry a uniform donor card with you. 

b.   This donor card says  what organs you wish to have donated and also has places for your family members to sign as witnesses after you have discussed your decision with them (Gundersen Lutheran Hospital [LaCrosse, WI] undated brochure).

[Transition: You can see that it isn’t difficult to be an organ donor. Now let’s look at what may happen if you choose to donate your organs and what may happen if you choose not to.]

C. Organ donation benefits both the donor’s family and the recipients.

1. If you do donate your organs, your family and the people who receive your organs might benefit in a similar way like this family. A seventeen year old died of head injuries in a car accident. His mom decided to donate his organs. His heart went to a prison chaplain, his kidneys went to a mother of 5 children and a Vietnam vet. The Vietnam vet is "energetic" and finally is getting his college degree. The teenager gave life to others and his family feels a sense of satisfaction and comfort that other lives have been touched by his (University of Wisconsin Hospital and Clinics 1991 brochure).

2. The problem arises when you are thinking about becoming a donor but never do anything about it. Then, no one knows your wishes and your organs will not be donated. The consequences of this are more people waiting for organs and there will still be an incredible shortage of available organs.

III.  CONCLUSION:

A.  Brakelight/Transition: As you can easily see, donating your organs can be one of the most important decisions you ever make and also the greatest gift you could ever give.

B.  Summary: I’ve told you about the need for organ donors in our area, how you can become an organ donor after you die, and finally, how your family and organ recipients benefit from your donation. You become a donor by talking to your family and making sure they know you want to be a donor, fill out and sign a donor card, and indicate your wishes on your driver’s license.

C.  Tie Back to the Audience: What if the person waiting on the list needing an organ transplant was someone you loved? Imagine if you had a brother or sister who had unexpectedly died and you were able to meet the person who received their heart, for example. Think of the satisfaction and possible comfort knowing that your brother or sister provided life for somebody else.

D.  Concluding Remarks: I’m going to leave you with a short message from Michael Jordan who is a sponsor for the Iowa LifeGift Coalition on Organ and Tissue Donor Awareness and appears in their 1996 brochure. "Please make the decision to become an organ and tissue donor. Remember: Share your life. Share your decision."

SHORT SOLUTION:

Topic:-

            A Needs Assessment Report For Child

Specific purpose:-

I give this topic to persuade my audience on the sensitivity of this issue. That they should took much care of children in related with their mental and physical health.

Thesis:-

            Does the physical and mental health of children is not a serious problem?

Introduction:-

Attention material:-

                           Good health begins early in life. In healthy families, children learn that they can count on the environment to provide for their emotional security and their physical safety and well-being, and they acquire behaviors that will eventually allow them to maintain their own physical and emotional health independent of caregivers. But today as there is a lot stress for the parents so they do not take care much of the children.

Thesis and preview:-

                                 Today I’d like to talk to you about first, how to take care of your children, second mental and physical effects of beating of children, third what is an effect of good behavior of parents and teachers on the child.

Body:-  

We can take of children in following ways:-

1. Try to be friendly with them. Talk them in a friendly manner.
2. Try to talk them about different hobbies that they can cultivate at the spare time.
3. Try to sit with them when they are studying rough books.
4. Encourage the child and gives a lot of affection to them.
5. The teacher should not give the students such punishments which leave bad influence on them.
6. The teacher should teach the student the importance of moral values.
7. The teacher should be kind to the child but firm.

Effects of beating child:-

  When parents and teachers beat the child then the child may lose their confidence, some child as a result start doing immoral deeds.

Conclusion:-

From this vantage point, a healthy environment for a child is a safe environment; it provides for a sense of emotional security and social integration and it offers certain critical social experiences that lead to the acquisition of behaviors that will eventually permit the child to engage in effective self-regulation.

Creating a Table by Using the Table Wizard

Microsoft Access has a wizard named the Table Wizard that will create a table for you. This wizard gives you suggestions about what type of table you can create (for example, a Mailing List table, a Students table, a Tasks table, and so on) and gives you many different possible names for fields within these tables. To use the Table Wizard to create a table, follow these steps: 

Create a new, blank database.

In the Database window, click Tables under Objects, and then click New.

In the New Table dialog box, double-click Table Wizard.

Follow the directions in the Table Wizard pages.

If you want to modify the table that the Table Wizard creates, open the table in Design view when you have finished using the Table Wizard. Creating a Table by Entering Data in a Datasheet

In Microsoft Access, you can also create a table by just entering data into columns (fields) in a datasheet. If you enter data that is consistent in each column (for example, only names in one column, or only numbers in another column), Access will automatically assign a data type to the fields. To create a table by just entering data in a datasheet, follow these steps: 

Create a new, blank database.

In the Database window, click Tables under Objects, and then click New.

In the New Table dialog box, double-click Datasheet View. A blank datasheet is displayed with default column names Field1, Field2, and so on.

Rename each column that you want to use. To do so, double-click the column name, type a name for the column, and then press ENTER.

You can insert additional columns at any time. To do so, click in the column to the right of where you want to insert a new column, and then on the Insert menu, click Column. Rename the column as described earlier.

Enter your data in the datasheet. Enter each kind of data in its own column. For example, if you are entering names, enter the first name in its own column and the last name in a separate column. If you are entering dates, times, or numbers, enter them in a consistent format. If you enter data in a consistent manner, Microsoft Access can create an appropriate data type and display format for the column. For example, for a column in which you enter only names, Access will assign the Text data type; for a column in which you enter only numbers, Access will assign a Number data type. Any columns that you leave empty will be deleted when you save the datasheet.

When you have added data to all the columns that you want to use, click Save on the File menu.

Microsoft Access asks you if you want to create a primary key. If you have not entered data that can be used to uniquely identify each row in your table, such as part numbers or an ID numbers, it is recommended that you click Yes. If you have entered data that can uniquely identify each row, click No, and then specify the field that contains that data as your primary key in Design view after the table has been saved. To define a field as your primary key after the table has been saved, follow these steps:

Open the table that Access created from the data that you entered in datasheet in Design view.

Select the field or fields that you want to define as the primary key. 

To select one field, click the row selector for the desired field. 

To select multiple fields, hold down the CTRL key, and then click the row selector for each field.

On the Edit menu, click Primary Key. 

If you want the order of the fields in a multiple-field primary key to be different from the order of those fields in the table, click Indexes on the toolbar to display the Indexes window, and then reorder the field names for the index named PrimaryKey.

As mentioned earlier, Microsoft Access will assign data types to each field (column) based on the kind of data that you entered. If you want to customize a field's definition further--for example, to change a data type that Access automatically assigned, or to define a validation rule--open the table in Design view.

Creating a Table in Design View

If you want to create the basic table structure yourself and define all the field names and data types, you can create the table in Design view. To do so, follow these steps: 

Create a new, blank database.

In the Database window, click Tables under Objects, and then click New.

In the New Table dialog box, double-click Design View.

In the <Table Name>: Table dialog box, define each of the fields that you want to include in your table. To do so, follow these steps:

Click in the Field Name column, and then type a unique name for the field.

In the Data Type column, accept the default data type of Text that Access assigns or click in the Data Type column, click the arrow, and then select the data type that you want.

In the Description column, type a description of the information that this field will contain. This description is displayed on the status bar when you are adding data to the field, and it is included in the Object Definition of the table. The description is optional.

Once you have added some fields, you may need to insert a field between two other fields. To do so, click in the row below where you want to add the new field, and then on the Insert menu, click Rows. This creates a blank row in which you can add a new field.

To add a field to the end of the table, click in the first blank row.

After you have added all the fields, define a primary key field before saving your table. A primary key is one or more fields whose value or values uniquely identify each record in a table. To define a primary key, follow these steps:

Select the field or fields that you want to define as the primary key. 

To select one field, click the row selector for the desired field. 

To select multiple fields, hold down the CTRL key, and then click the row selector for each field.

On the Edit menu, click Primary Key.

If you want the order of the fields in a multiple-field primary key to be different from the order of those fields in the table, click Indexes on the toolbar to display the Indexes dialog box, and then reorder the field names for the index named PrimaryKey. 

You do not have to define a primary key, but it is usually a good idea. If you do not define a primary key, Microsoft Access asks if you want Access to create one for you when you save the table.

When you are ready to save your table, on the File menu, click Save, and then type a unique name for the table.

Solution:

1.  After analyzing the findings of the research conducted, you need to identify the ‘key factor’ which compelled KFC’s higher management to launch Big Filler Burger?

Ans: As a new product launch is always risky. You can never be certain if your product  will be a success or a failure. There are, however, ways to predict with reasonable accuracy, whether or not a product will succeed. This can be done by determining the key  success factors for a new product. According to Dr. William R. Boulton, 

“key success factor fall into five categories: customer requirements, competitive factors  that must be met, regulations/industry standards, requirements to implement competitive  strategy, and technical requirements to build a competitive position. Determining the precise key success factors for your specific product is simple when using these categories. 

Following a few easy steps will show you how to determine your key success factors.”

1- customer requirement:

The KFC’s higher management write down a list of customer requirements. These  are the things that you know your potential customers want in a product. This can be gathered via market research. An example as it is discribed that the size of the burger is now attracting customers,. Therefore, it is considered a key success factor.

2- Competitive factors:

Write a list of competitive factors that must be met. For example, if you are  marketing a new sports drink and all other sports drinks contain caffeine, putting caffeine in your product is a competitive factor that you must meet. Not meeting this factor means that you will likely be unable to compete, so this factor is a key success factor.

3- Regulations/industry standards:

Write a list of regulations/industry standards in your specific business. A food product, for instance, needs to pass certain health requirements. Not meeting these requirements makes it likely that you will be shut down by regulators. Therefore, these requirements are considered key success factors.

4- Resource requirements:

Write your resource requirements to implement competitive strategy. For example, for a marketing campaign you will need to the the approximate cost and the number of employees needed. These are factors necessary to implement your strategy, so they are considered key success factors.

5- Technical requirements:

Write a list of technical requirements you need to build a competitive position. If you need access to particular technology to produce and distribute your product, this is a key success factor

2.  How competitors of KFC help in making an idea of Big Filler? Was it market intelligence or market research which helped KFC to take this decision?
Ans: It was Market research that KFC help in making an idea of Big Filler as KFC was facing severe competition from its competitor regarding size of the burger e.g.  BIG MAC Burger by McDonald, Foot Long Burger by Subway etc. The crux of the task was to design a campaign  where KFC could stand out among competitors by offering something unique and out of the box. Therefore KFC’s product development team came up with a new idea of introducing “KFC Big Filler Burger”

KFC conducted a research that what the competitors  are  doing  in  this  regards.  Research findings show that Big Mac by Mac Donald and Big  Foot by Subway, have  received  a  tremendous  response from the market; especially from  those customers who are focusing on the size of   the   product.   For that   KFC   has developed a new product with the name of Big Filler burger.
