...Inventory Records: It's good business Introduction Jewelers Mutual Insurance Company developed Inventory Records: It's good business because proper inventory record keeping is a necessary tool for a jewelry business to be successful. Taking the time to establish and maintain accurate and up-to-date inventory records will save you time and money in the event of an insurance claim. If you have a loss, your inventory records will prove what inventory has been lost and its value so that your claim can be settled quickly. If you can't prove that missing items existed, the payment for your loss may be delayed or possibly denied. In addition, inventory records are required by your insurance policy. Recovering insured losses isn't the only reason to establish proper inventory records. Inventory records are useful in planning. They can indicate when to reorder merchandise, what's selling and what's not. Your records also can alert you to missing items and errors in entry, and they help deter internal theft. This guide provides information for retailers, wholesalers and manufacturers, with a specific section focusing on the unique needs of wholesalers and manufacturers. Because each jewelry operation differs in size, method of operation, and type of finished products, it's difficult to recommend one inventory system that will work for every firm. Many of the recommendations listed in this guide apply to retailers, manufacturers and wholesalers; some do not. Work...

...Economic Feasibility of Sales and Inventory System The fast growth of EJ Builders as a business institution requires them to have a better sales and inventory processes. Instead of adding an employee, the proposed Sales and Inventory System can help the business better. The cost of the system is no longer an issue to the business which taxes reaches almost a million. The investment in the system is surely a better choice rather than adding an employee. The system actually minimizes the time of work and maximizing the efficiency and productivity of works. Maintaining of the system is at ease because the source code is included in the system’s package. The Manager can call any programmer anytime whenever they want to change something in the system. Therefore, the economic feasibility of the system is very much obvious for it will upgrade the processes, the quality of service and business as a whole. Operational Feasibility of Sales and Inventory System Compared to the present system, the proposed sales and inventory is much more time-saving, functional and accurate. It requires no expertise to run the system. It has a tutorial before you actually use the system, furthermore, it has a “Help” menu where the user can review and examine how the system actually works. There is no need for a seminar to teach or guide the user on how to operate the system. However, if the user wants to, the developer can guide them through. The operation of the system as a whole is not an issue...

...Ethics Awareness Inventory Ethics Awareness Inventory The Ethics Awareness Inventory and its results were fascinating. The Ethics Awareness Inventory seems a bit manipulating. I am interested to know whether the measures have been experimentally validated. Of course this is my ethical perspective and ethical approach. I do not see how one could measure ethical conduct, perhaps through measurable results. I believe if the outcome cannot be measured, there is no way one could be confident that the fundamental ethical construct exists or causes consequences to others. The Inventory Itself The Ethics Awareness Inventory starts with a small introduction about the process, applicability, and purpose of the measure (Ethics Awareness Inventory, 2013). The inventory makes it known that ethical decision-making consists of three different tasks, such as awareness, articulation, and application. I must disagree that any exclusion of the last task would disprove any discussion of the first two. The goal of the inventory is to identify the significant belief structures that guide our ethical decisions. It also assumes that this is just the beginning that concludes in the application of ethical decision-making. Questions in the measure were made up of partial statements followed by four complete statements. Participants were asked to finish each statement with a most liked statement and a least liked statement. Ethical justifying principles change focus as of late from personal...

...Managing Non-Traditional Inventories Restaurants Within the service industry, companies will typically have two types of inventory, traditional inventory and non-traditional inventory. For a restaurateur it is essential that they have certain management systems in place, which assist with the management of both types of inventory. These inventory management systems for traditional and non-traditional inventories are critical for a restaurant to be successful and profitable. When dealing with a restaurants traditional inventory, managers are focused on the challenges of dealing with a highly perishable product, food. Since the raw materials for restaurants have a limited shelf life and usually expire within the first week, restaurant managers must have active control systems that assist with food costs, the largest expense for all restaurants. If restaurants are able to successfully manage their traditional inventory, they are most likely a profitable business; however, restaurants could still be passing up opportunities if they do not manage their non-traditional inventories. The non-traditional inventories for restaurants are the “products available for sale”, which are the space for customers to sit at tables. Restaurant owners should consider each table space as their main product, because without the table space full-service restaurants will not exist. In order for a restaurant to be not only profitable, but also successful, managers should monitor their tables...

...ventory planning Chapter 12: Inventory planning and... Study guide | This chapter is relatively unusual in so much as it takes more of a quantitative approach to its topic. While not avoiding quantitative models where they are appropriate, the general approach of this book is to deal with operations management from a ‘general management’ point of view. Here we include some quantitative models of how inventory is managed mainly to demonstrate that some parts of the inventory decision can be quantified. In practice, most of these decision models will be embedded within an operation’s routine stock control computer system. However, whilst working through them remember that it is the underlying principles behind the models which are more important than the mathematics on which the models are based.Your learning objectivesThis is what you should be able to do after reading Chapter 12 and working through this study guide. * Understand what is meant by an inventory and why they exist. * Identify some of the advantages and disadvantages of keeping inventory in an operation. * Understand the basic principles behind the quantitative approaches to deciding how much inventory to keep. * Be able to describe the limitations of traditional quantitative models of inventory decision making. * Identify the two main approaches to managing inventory on an on-going basis.What do we mean by inventory?The chapter discusses inventory (we use the word interchangeably with the word ‘stock’)...

...involves evaluating the thinking process – the reasoning that went into the conclusion we've arrived at the kinds of factors considered in making a decision. Critical thinking is sometimes called directed thinking because it focuses on a desired outcome." Halpern, Diane F. Thought and Knowledge: An Introduction to Critical Thinking. 1996. Critical thinking occurs when individuals are allowed to analyze and evaluates evidence, argument, claim and beliefs of their task and draw conclusions. Critical thinking is what enhances our thoughts in the decision making process. * Ethics Richard William Paul and Linda Elder define ethics as "a set of concepts and principles that guide us in determining what behavior helps or harms sentient creatures".

...Ethics Awareness Inventory Octavio Landeros PSYCH/545 - Survey of Professional Psychology August 12, 2013 Instructor: Mary Mc Greevy Abstract The purpose of the summary is to elucidate the importance of a personal ethical perspective and to scrutinize the affiliation between professional and personal ethics in psychology. The summary will analyze by taking into account the results of the Ethics Awareness Inventory (EAI). Ethics Awareness Inventory In today’s society, there is a fine and invisible line among individuals and professionals: ethics. The meaning has become so multifaceted that people’s views about ethics have become unstable and broad. Ethics relate to moral principles to guide individuals and to teach them how to conduct themselves in society by differentiating between rightness and wrongness. The standard of right and wrong defines the aspect of ethics. Ethical dilemmas will arise and will bring a tangle of questions to the professional. The professional will wrestle with questions that will be hard to admit to themselves and others (Pope & Vasquez, 2011). It is human nature to make rushed decisions and mistakes makes humans question their professional and personal ethics. Ethics will help the professional answer those tangled questions. An ethical awareness will let the professional weigh the choices that will affect the lives of colleagues, the public, and the clients. An ethical awareness will free the professional from the restraining webs...

...Life Styles Inventory™ & Myers‐Briggs Type Indicator®: A Comparison of Two Surveys We are often asked: “What is the difference between the Life Styles Inventory™ and the MyersBriggs Type Indicator®?” Whereas both of these surveys help individuals to better understand themselves and others, they differ in terms of what they measure, how they measure it, and how the results are used. Thus, the purpose of this paper is to highlight what we believe are some of the most important differences between these two popular instruments. The Life Styles Inventory™ (LSI) measures twelve distinct thinking and behavioral styles that are distinguished by their orientations toward task versus people and higher-order needs for satisfaction and growth versus lower order needs for security and safety. The LSI builds on the work of a variety of noteworthy psychologists, including Abraham Maslow, Carl Rogers, Albert Ellis, Karen Horney, Timothy Leary, David McClelland, Harry Stack Sullivan, as well as management scholars, such as Fredrick Hertzberg, Douglas McGregor, and Ralph Stodgill. It is designed to provide individuals with an opportunity to identify specific strengths in their thinking and behavior, as well as any “stumbling blocks” that may be standing in their way. As such, the LSI is used to initiate positive changes in how people approach their work and interact with others— changes that can increase both their personal and professional effectiveness. In contrast, the Myers-Briggs Type...
