...entertainment product retailers. To accommodate their growing business, the company recently spent a large amount of capital to improve the company’s technology and infrastructure. Because of these large capital expenditures, Entertainmentnow.com has seen negative returns for the past year. In order to please their stockholders and improve their operating performance, the company needs to expand their market share further. The major issue to be addressed in this case is the increase in net loss per item sold despite the fact that actual sales volume exceeded the company’s expectations. The operating budget for the past year showed an expected net loss per item sold of $1.94. Actual financial results showed a net loss per item sold of $2.10. In this case, Mark Dibbs, Vice President of Financial Analysis for Entertainmentnow.com, will explain this variance fully and make recommendations to senior management based on his analysis.

...Menu Production Records The materials in this packet were developed with permission from the South Dakota Department of Education and Cultural Affairs Division of Education Services Menu Production Packet. 1 Menu Production Records Performance Objectives The participant will demonstrate an understanding of the Michigan Menu Production Record by completing assigned parts of the form. For more information about production records, refer to: A Menu Planner for Healthy School Meals, USDA (FNS-303), 1998. Introduction to Menu Production Records The Menu Production Record is a tool that is used in every foodservice operation, including restaurants, commercial cafeterias, and institutional cafeterias. Its main purpose is to plan and control food production. A written production record provides a place for the manager to plan the amount of food that will be prepared and then record what was actually served. Adjustments can be made to the Menu Production Record during preparation and service in order to indicate any changes that may need to be made. Since the Child Nutrition Programs receive reimbursement for lunches, breakfasts, and snacks that conform to the meal pattern, the School Food Authority must provide documentation to the state and federal government about the food and the amounts that were served. The Menu Production Record becomes the documentation of the amounts served. It is also the basic record that will be used by the state agency during a review to determine compliance...

LO3: Analyze, using graphs and numbers, how an economy LO A l i h d b h reaches short-run equilibrium in the basic Keynesian model. LO4: Show how a change in planned aggregate expenditure can cause a change in short-run equilibrium output and how this is related to the income-expenditure multiplier.

(1999) BEN-ZUR Journal of Advanced Nursing 30(6), 1432±1440 Evaluation of an innovative curriculum: nursing education in the next century The present research focused on an interim evaluation of a new nursing curriculum made by ®rst- and second-year undergraduates. Study 1 examined the assessments made by 90 students of the new, actual programme of their studies, as well as an ideal one, on 21 bipolar criteria re¯ecting the developing changes in health care practices and higher educational processes in western society. The results of study 1 indicated that students perceived the actual programme as compatible with health care changes, but lacking in terms of the learning process. Study 2 investigated the same assessments among 105 registered nurses who evaluated the traditional nursing programme under which they were trained as well as an ideal one. The results of study 2 showed that registered nurses perceived past curricula as lower than the ideal on both health care and process of learning. The results of this interim evaluation imply that the new nursing curriculum follows health care trends, but a shift in the educational process is required.

...IBM, Bangalore A White Paper Challenges of Managing a Testing Project: (A White Paper) A White Paper Page 1 of 20 Vinod Kumar Suvarna IBM, Bangalore A White Paper Introduction Testing is expected to consume 30 – 50 % of the Project Effort, Still properly managing testing project is not considered seriously. Project Managers always undermine the impact the testing activity has on the Project Cost and Schedule. Hence the testing activity is usually unplanned and uncontrollable. As the project manager assumes that the main focus of the testing activity in the project is not to meet the project schedule. But Its is a reality that a thorough and close monitoring of the Testing project is required to increase productivity, reduce cycle -time and improve quality.

...Actual Performances vs Forecast / Benchmark 787- Jumbo The closer approximation to the A380, from either the technical side as well as the type of market served, is the Boeing 747 “Jumbo”. In terms of size the two giants are comparable. Both over 70 meters in length two decks and targeting long distance routes (for both the maximum distance above 8000 nautical miles). Given those similitudes it will be interesting to compare the performances in sales and market penetration. However one caveat would be taking into consideration the different market characteristics of the prosperous markets of 60s and 70s compared to the actual stagnant scenario. Sales We compared the sales of the two models (specifically matching the orders received for the first 11 years). It is clear that in both cases after the initial saturation of the premium market segment, sales are slowing down. However in the subsequent years, new clients and new product configurations increased boosted sales again. The difference comparing the two volumes is pretty considerable (357 of 747 units vs 262 of A380 units). Figure 1 Sales first 11 years comparison Another approach that the industry is taking in consideration for the market success of an aircraft is the sales benchmarked to the first delivery. This different indicator compares the sales performance aligning data of the two airplanes considering as 0 the year of first flight. This info is fundamental because airline companies are often skeptical of...

...Assignment 03 ‐ PROJECT MANAGEMENT PLAN CHALLENGE The Project Management Plan (PMP) is the project document that clearly defines the project and forms its baseline guidance document for the duration. The PMP is typically the first document to be prepared by the project team once the project has been approved; as such it follows the Project Charter approval. A key to a successful PMP is that the Project Manager must ensure that the stakeholders play key roles in its development. The PMP establishes the overview of many of the key project management plans that will be more fully developed later. By learning how to create an effective Project Management Plan, you will better understand its content and its role when acting as a Project Manager. OBJECTIVES 1. 2. 3.
