Business Analytics/Statistics

October 6, 2020 Leave a comment APA (edition "APA 7"), Business and Management

Managers in more advanced analytics companies give more weight to analytics when they make key business decisions. Employees frequently look for signals about what is important to management, and whether what is important today will be important tomorrow. How can management help employees understand what analytics are important to monitor on a regular basis and what analytics could fluctuate as the business cycle runs its course?

Part 1:
In 2004, inward FDI accounted for some 24 percent of gross fixed capital formation in Ireland, but only 0.6 percent in Japan. What do you think explains this difference in FDI inflows into the two countries?

Part 2:
Use the globalEDGE (globaledge.msu.com) site to complete the following exercise:
The World Investment Report published annually by UNCTAD provides quick electronic access to comprehensive statistics on the operations of the largest transnational corporations. Gather a list of the top 10 non-financial transnational corporations from developing countries. Provide a summary of the countries and industries represented. Do you notice any common traits from your analysis?

Part 3: Welcome to week 5 of your course. This discussion question will help you prepare for your CLA2 paper. Read the CLA2 assignment listed in week 8 of the course in the Syllabus. Then, please provide an outline that itemizes the concepts that you will include in your CLA2 paper. Provide some brief details for each item that is outlined.

* this is the instructions for the CLA2 paper assignment. read this and make an outline for this paper.

Comprehensive Learning Assessment 2
In a 4 to 6 page APA formatted paper:
Read the Closing Case: Tesla, Inc – Subsidizing Tesla Automobiles Globally page 610 of the book.
Then, answer the following questions:
1. Should companies like Tesla rely on government subsidies in selling their cars since they are better for the environment than traditional cars based on the old technology of traditional combustion engines? Basically, should the environmental issues be built into the competitiveness of the car pricing of electrical cars, or should supply and demand
be the driver of the electrical cars prices?
2. Some governments are more likely to subsidize electric cars (and many other products) than other governments. Denmark took a stand to not subsidize (for now) electrical cars. Should such subsidies be up to each country or region in a country (e.g., California in the United States), or should there be a world standard enforced perhaps via the World Trade Organization, United Nations, or a similar organization?
3. Tesla made remarkable sales growthfrom a startup (albeit with great financing) to $7
billion in sales with some $25 billion in assets. Does this mean that the Tesla business model was good and the market reacted positively, government subsidies were generous, and the market favored the car brand because of it, or a combination?
4. If all government subsidies went away worldwide to electrical cars, will Tesla be as successful in five years as it is now? (Will Tesla even exist in 10 years?)

Theories of Leadership and Team Building
Making decisions that are best for the team is an important aspect of leadership. Some decisions will be accepted positively by the team and others will not. For this Assignment, you will analyze a situation that needs a decision using the Normative Decision Model in the course reading to identify the optimal decision making style by matching decision making style to situational factors. The idea is not to develop a solution to the problem, but to analyze the best style to make the decision.

The decision making styles are detailed in the text and include:

Decide
Consult (individually)
Consult (group)
Facilitate
Delegate
To complete this weeks Assignment, review the decision making styles, contingency factors, and application of the model in the text. After reviewing the textbook reading, choose a work situation that needs a decision (can be a situation at your workplace, a current event, or hypothetical).

Complete the analysis by answering the following questions on choosing a decision making style (use the contingency factors and application of the model in the text reading).

Briefly explain the situation and what decision needs to be made.
What are the contingency factors that need to be applied to the situation?
Which contingency factors were more challenging to answer and why?
How could answers to the contingency factors be found?
How do team dynamics influence the decision making process?
How can leadership style preferences influence the process?
What is the groups final recommended decision making style from the model?
How would the group implement the decision making style recommended by the model?
How would the decision making style chosen effect team building?
What can a leader do to mitigate any negative effects of the final decision on the team?

Answers to the questions should be in sentence/paragraph format. Copy and paste the questions into a Word document and place your answers below each question. The paper should be two to four pages, not including title and reference pages. The paper should be typed, double-spaced, and follow APA style guidelines. It should be written in Standard American English with well-organized and original thoughts supported by the text material, and use correct grammar, punctuation, and sentence structure. You should incorporate the text material using proper APA in-text citations and References.
