HINT: See Chapters 10-14 of the text to help understand some of the legal issues covered in this assignment.
Jim and Laura Buyer visit the local car dealership because they are interested in buying a new car. The car they currently have is aging and is starting to have mechanical problems. Jim and Laura would share the new car, and use it to go back and forth to work and school. Before going to the dealership, Jim and Laura decide that they can only afford $400.00 a month in car payments.
Once at the car dealership, Jim and Laura meet Stan Salesman. Stan shows them several vehicles and Jim and Laura test-drive several of the cars. Jim and Laura particularly like the blue 4-door sedan. Therefore, they agree to give Stan Salesman a $100.00 deposit to hold the car for a day. Stan Salesman does not give them the receipt but guarantees that the $100.00 is refundable. No documents were signed.
The next day, Stan Salesman calls Jim and Laura to ask them when they would like to take delivery of the car. Jim and Laura, on the way home from the dealership, decided that they were not going to buy the car because they did not want to spend that money each month. Therefore, Jim and Laura tell Stan salesman that they have decided not to buy the car and request their $100.00 deposit back.
Stan insists that the $100.00 was a deposit on the car and was meant to be part of the contract to buy the car. Stan is very persistent and insistent that Jim and Laura have contracted to buy the car; therefore, the $100.00 will be applied to the purchase price of the car. Jim and Laura are shocked and angry as not only do they not want to spend the money, but now feel as though they are being duped by Stan Salesman.
Jim and Laura have an appointment to see a lawyer in a few days, but know you are a student taking a business law class and come to you for advice. They are very frazzled, and understandably upset that they may have just purchased a car. Since you have been taking business law, you have read and understand the elements of a contract and the defenses to a contract. Therefore, although you are not a lawyer, you provide some basic advice from what you’ve learned in your business law class.

discuss and compare at least two different areas in which presidential national security power was exercised by Presidents Bush and Obama, using specific examples for each. For example, you could pick surveillance for Bush and the use of military force for Obama (or, as another example, you could pick surveillance for both administrations). Also answer these questions: have both, either, or neither of these presidents been faithful to the vision of presidential power (1) envisioned by the Framers of the Constitution and (2) put into action by prior presidents (and is that the right way to evaluate them—by determining whether they have been faithful to what the Framers intended or actions taken by past presidents)?

Please also discuss at least two other presidents in writing your answer, again using specific examples. You can and should use course materials but you also must use at least five additional sources (books and/or scholarly articles) to support your arguments. Please be sure to include citations in your paper when necessary (any standard format is fine—Chicago Manual of Style, MLA, Turabian—what matters to me is that you provide proper citation so that it is clear where your information comes from. This applies both to quoted excerpts from other materials and to ideas/information used or drawn on from other sources even when you do not include directly quoted excerpts. It also applies to facts you discuss).

my chosen theory ; Grand Nursing Theorist Report
The purpose of this paper is to explain the elements of a theory and how to apply it to nursing practice. The theorist chosen was Dorothea E. Orem and her self-care deficit nursing theory. This theorist was selected because her theory provides an exceptional organizational tool to guide nursing practice and evaluate care. It is said that “Orem’s theory is composed of three interrelated theories: the theory of self-care, the self-care deficit theory, and the theory of nursing systems” (Gonzalo, 2011).

Re: Issues with Current Advertisement Practice during New Product Launches 
This report is an extension of the problem analysis report on the role of advertising in new product launch submitted on October 13, 2015.
This report provides further details than the previous analysis report to look into the real problem areas that emerged from the analysis. Specifically, the report provides the following details:
Background of the problem
Process analysis
Stakeholder analysis
Concluding statements 
The report provides evidence suggesting that the current application of advertisement during new product launches in the company has a major problem in the lack of adequate personnel capacity because advertisement knowledge is scant.
I would like to get your approval for proceeding further into identifying potential solutions to the identified problem.
I am hopeful that I will hear from you soon after you have reviewed the report.
Thank you.

Issues with Current Advertisement Practice during New Product Launches
Prepared For:
Richard Wong, Marketing Supervisor
Prepared By:
Yousef Alaqil, Marketing department

November 4th, 2015.

INTRODUCTION AND PROBLEM BACKGROUND
From the problem analysis report, it emerged that advertisement is one of the most important success factors during new product launches. Advertisement is one of the core elements of marketing, which means that it falls within the docket of the marketing department (Rasmussen College, 2011). In the context of product launches, the marketing department uses advertisement to create market awareness, persuade consumers, and create product appeal. In this regard, developing an appropriate and effective advertisement strategy for launching new products should be the objective of the marketing department. From the interview with the experienced advertisement professional, Tyler Cook, the specific details of the phases of product launches and the role of advertisement were identified.
The following pages illustrate the problem and issues discovered in our analysis.

Illustrate The Problem And Issues
As illustrated in Table 1 (below), the advertisement aspect requires an understanding of the use of the various advertisement tools at the different phases of product launching.
Table 1: Phases of Product Launches and Role of Advertising
Phase Purpose Tools
Pre-launch Phase Creating market awareness and interest in new product Mass advertisement e.g. radio, TV, newspaper adverts
Launch Phase Creating demand for new product Mass advertisement, social media advertisement
Post-launch phase Expanding market base and market share Traditional and new advertising media
Source: (Cook, 2015)
From the Table (above), some of the advertisement tools used in product launches include TV, radio, newspapers, and social media (Cook, 2015). After examining a current product launch project in the company, it is clear that some of the personnel working in the marketing department did not have adequate knowledge on some of the advertisement tools used. This was particularly the case with new marketing media, especially social media advertisement as discussed in detail below.
Process Analysis
Current Problem Area
Product launching is an important process in the company. During new product launches, the marketing department is charged with the responsibility of designing the most appropriate product launch strategies including the selection and application of appropriate advertisement tools and strategies. In the modern context, the marketing function has a wider range of options to choose from because of the emergence of new marketing tools. One of these is a social media network, which have become a major component of marketing and advertising in modern organizations. According to Schwartzman (2013), it has become progressively important to manage corporate social media accounts and channels. For this to happen, the personnel dealing with the social media channels need to have the knowledge base needed. 
From the primary research on a recent product launch project in the company, several key insights emerged that shed more light on the lack of adequate knowledge of social media use in the marketing department. Figure 1 (below) illustrates the findings from the survey after the five employees involved in advertising the new product were asked about their knowledge and understanding of the use of three social media networks in the product launch. 
Figure 1: How Well Do You Understand the Use of Each Social Media Network in Product Launches (0 – I do not understand, 1 – fairly understand, 2 – well conversant).

Source: (Employee Survey, 2015) Why no Twitter data on E4 and E5?
From Figure 1 (above), none of the five employees was well conversant with the use of all the three social media networks. Only one employee (employee 3) was well conversant with two of the three social media networks (Twitter and Facebook) while only one (employee 1) was well conversant with Facebook. Majority of the employees only had fair understanding of the use of the social media networks for product launches. What was more worrying was the finding that two of the employees (employee 4 and 5) did not understand the use of Twitter. These findings should be worrying considering that these employees were involved in the advertisement of the new products. How could they optimize the use of the social media networks for advertising the new product to ensure a successful product launch when they lacked the adequate knowledge base?
The problem of limited knowledge base in the use of new media advertisement during product launches will persist if nothing changes. It will continue to affect all future product launches, which necessitates the prioritization of this problem.
Good data, but include the specific skill set that is actually missing for a clearer snapshot of the training problem.
Impact of the Problem
The lack of adequate knowledge in the use of social media in advertisement affects the individual employees, the marketing department, and the entire organization. For the individual employees, the knowledge gap causes frustration and reduces personal productivity. Giving employees tasks that they are not conversant with causes disenfranchisement, which makes them feel out of place and demoralized that ultimately leads to underperformance (Page and Connell, 2006, p. 242).
The marketing department is also adversely affected because any failure of the product launch project will be blamed on the department. The department is responsible for ensuring that product launches are successful and any failures because of failures in advertising will ultimately be directed towards the department. The repercussions could be serious for the personnel working in this department including getting warnings, transfers, and possible terminations for underperformance.
However, the company will feel the ultimate impact of the lack of knowledge on use of social media advertisement. If a product launch fails because of the limited knowledge base of the employees charged with the advertisement efforts, the company would incur major financial losses because of the investments involved in the development and launch of the product.
Stakeholder Analysis
Currently, the employees affected by the limited knowledge in the use of social media networks are supportive of this research. They agree that they lack the adequate knowledge capacity to use advertisement effectively during product launches. This research will benefit these employees directly. However, it will also benefit the marketing department and the entire organization by ensuring successful product launches driven by effective advertising.
CONCLUSION
This report identifies the problem of limited knowledge capacity in the use of new media channels in advertisement, which forms an important element in new product launches. Limited knowledge capacity has negative impacts on the success of new product launches, which ultimately lead to significant losses in terms of money, effort, and time. In this regard, further research is necessary to identify potential solutions to this problem. Therefore, your authorization is much needed for this progress.

Answer

1.Consider that a management and tracking system developed for marathon runners is going into production tomorrow. The runners will begin using the site in the morning to sign up and track their entries into multiple races. Data was entered for racers that had signed up prior to the system going live. There is a race in four weeks, which allows friends to login and track where the runner is on the course. The season ends in six months and full reports are provided to each runner with their statistics.

In your initial response, provide examples of post implementation items you will need to manage and support in the first five days, the first four weeks, and the first six months for the marathon runner management and tracking system.

2.”Rachel’s Day off swimwear
Rachel’s Day Off Swimwear is a successful chain of high end swimsuit boutiques. In the last six months, the firm added several new lines and opened a dozen new stores. The downside is that the company has outgrown its accounting software. The original accounting system was a package from Peachtree Soft- ware, which ran on a stand-alone PC and later on a network. Now, the firm is ready to install a new ac- counting package that can support current and future operations. You have been asked to implement the new system, which is called Sage 50.
tasks
1. Who should receive training on the new software, and what topics should the training cover? 2. Go online and investigate the Sage 50 product to learn whether it can import and upload
existing data. 3. What changeover strategy would you suggest for the new accounting system? Explain your answer. 4. When should a post-implementation evaluation be conducted? Explain your answer.”
