...of short life-cycle products. Lawrence et al. (2009, p. 99) supports the view of Aviv & Zhao (2002) that through collaborative forecasting, supply chain will improve and most likely achieve the benefits of increasing responsiveness, risk reduction, and lower inventory costs, hence, increase profitability and business performance. Småros (2004) classified two categories of forecasting collaboration; modeling based research, wherein, retailers and suppliers share downstream demand or inventory information, and the other category is empirical research focusing on one collaboration model such as CPFR (Collaborative Planning, Forecasting, and Replenishment) process supported by VICS (Voluntary Interindustry Commerce Standards). The CPFR model is composing of nine steps model (VICS, 2002): 1. Developing Collaboration Arrangement. 2. Creating Joint Business Plan. 3. Creating Sales Forecast. 4.

...1. Question Supply Chain Resources definition are Materials, People, Information, Money or any other such resources that must be managed for profitable business operations. Define and describe brief information of the resources defined. Supply chain management (SCM) is the management of the flow of goods. It includes the movement and storage of raw materials, work-in-process inventory, and finished goods from point of origin to point of consumption. Interconnected or interlinked networks, channels and node businesses are involved in the provision of products and services required by end customers in a supply chain. Supply chain management has been defined as the "design, planning, execution, control, and monitoring of supply chain activities with the objective of creating net value, building a competitive infrastructure, leveraging worldwide logistics, synchronizing supply with demand and measuring performance globally. SCM draws heavily from the areas of operations management, logistics, procurement, and information technology, and strives for an integrated approach. Commonly accepted definitions of supply chain management include: • The management of upstream and downstream value-added flows of materials, final goods, and related information among suppliers, company, resellers, and final consumers. • The systematic, strategic coordination of traditional business functions and tactics across all business functions within a particular...

...CLAW3201 Case Analysis Introduction In Crown Insurance Services Ltd v Commissioner of Taxation (Crown), the issues raised are pertinent to the residence and source of the company under s6(1) of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936. As cases are determined on the basis of all relevant facts and circumstances of each case, this analysis will focus on how the court’s decision process determined whether Crown had carried on business in the years 2004-2007 inclusive and the existence of central management and control (CM&C) in Australia. The purpose of this is to assess the valuation of Crown’s taxable income, which ultimately resulted in the objective decision to be set aside in favour of the applicant. Evaluation will be made in regards to how the case compares with previous cases and tax rulings and the likely impacts of the case on future commercial practices. Further, what the case infers about the current state of law in this area will also be discussed, as well as the potential degree of changes in modern judgements of residence and source issues within businesses not incorporated in Australia. Past judgements and tax rulings The facts of the case are similar to that of Malayan Shipping Co Ltd v FCT (1946), where the court held that “the mere trading in Australia by a company not incorporated in Australia will not of itself be sufficient to cause the company to become a resident”. This is true and consistent with the statutory definition of resident of Australia,...

Rule(s) of Law 1. Trespass Land: Defined: The Restatement (2nd) of Torts, section 329, states: A trespasser is a person who enters or remains upon land in the possession of another without a privilege to do so created by the possessor's consent or otherwise The traditional common law rule,-the dimensional test, provides that a trespass only exists where the invasion of land occurs through a physical, tangible object. See Adams v. Cleveland-Cliffs Iron Co., 237 Mich. App. 51, 602 N.W.2d 215, 219 (Mich. Ct. App. 1999). Under that rule, intangible matter or energy, such as smoke, noise, light, and vibration, are insufficient to constitute a trespass. Id.; Larry D.

...CONTEMPORARY BUSINESS LAW Session 1 – Introduction to Law/Australian Legal System _______________________________________________________________________________ 1. WHAT IS LAW? 1.1 Legal Terms A Law - A particular legal rule. The Law - A declaration of behaviour in our society. - A comprehensive and changing set of rules. Jurisprudence - The general principles underlying the law: the foundation for the making of the law. Natural Law - The principles of reason and justice which flow from the law of nature (or the law of God) and which form the foundation of our legal system. Religious Law - What is right and wrong? Rationalist Law - What is reason? 1.2 Foundation for Democratic Law Natural law is based on the notions of the laws of God and reason/common sense – ie, a combination of Religious and Rationalist law. We see direct examples of Christian teachings in our law. A notable example is the case of Donoghue v Stevenson which is a major case in the law of tort. John Locke explained that natural law involved a fundamental belief that all men are equal and will, therefore, equally respect and not harm each other. His view inspired the core principle of the American Declaration of Independence and, as a result, two of the most impacting speeches: American Declaration of Independence: “We hold these truths to be...

...Ch11: Leaders are necessary for effective team work. They need to be there to shape goals, coordinate effort, and motivate members. Carver should be a better leader. Effects to change the leader may often result in negative supervisor reactions, including resistance to change, role conflict, unwillingness to relinquish power, fear of appearing incompetent and fear of job termination. These responses may cause the leaders to engage in actions that thwart, rather than facilitate team effectiveness. Carver is an autocratic leader, since he is an appointed leader. HE should go for coaching; coaching is about building team work, not about doing the team’s work. Leadership is not the same as management, people want to be led. Leadership is the ability to influence people to achieve the goals of a team. Transformational leadership and Transactional leadership depend on the leader’s power to reinforce subordinate for their successful completion of the task. POWER is the capacity to influence people. Using power feels good, people are attracted to power, people who have power often have egocentrically biased view of themselves, believing themselves to be more fair, generous and trustworthy. Not every decision requires the input of their entire team. It is simply not practical to consult the team on every organizational issue, but where to draw the line is unclear. Legitimate power (based on person’s holding of a formal position, other person complies because of belief in legitimacy of...

...Movie Analysis Sociology 3620 (Criminology) Criminological Theories in "Empire" The movie "Empire" is a dramatization of the life in the shoes of one of four heroin dealers in the New York City area known as South Bronx. It is a story told by Victor Rosa, the main character referred to by many as Vic, as the viewer follows him around the city The movie begins by naming all the main drug dealers and their territories across the South Bronx region, Victor's territory noticeably bigger than the others. Out of the four competitors, we only see one that Victor has any trouble with later in the movie and that is the drug dealer known as Tito. Tito is another successful, Hispanic drug dealer who sells his product in the territory just south of Victor. Due to the location of these two territories it isn't uncommon to see a pedlar cross into another dealers area of sales. The first outbreak of violence between the two gangs erupts after Victor is informed by an appointed leader in his crew that one of Tito's men had been witnessed selling their product across the "invisible line". Usually these gang leaders wouldn't handle business themselves but when it comes to cutting into their profits, that is when the leader of the crew must make a statement by taking matters into their own hands. Victor and two of his men show up on the street corner where they find Tito's men continuing to push their product. The two members Victor arrived with proceed to raise their weapons at two...

...independent contractor or an employee (Fair Work Act, 2009). In this report it shall be determined whether Anne Parish was an employee or an independent contractor to Ace Insurance Co. using the multi-factor test. Further it shall also be argued upon whether Anne was dealt fairly or not. 2.0 The Multi- Factor Test The Multi- Factor test is important because it determines the entitlements for a worker as an independent contractor or an employee. The test started to be used by the legislature and federal courts from 1990’s to determine and decide upon, if an individual or group of individuals is an employee or a contractor (Stewart, 2009). The multi-factor test takes into account certain criteria’s and facts to determine whether a person is an Employee or Independent contractor . This facts fall into 3 main category namely behavioral control, financial control and type of relationship (Megerdomian, n.d). Behavioral control relate to the amount and nature of control exercised by the employer on worker. Financial control involves the type of remuneration and investments by either party. And the type of relationship is determined by factors such as delegation of work and reporting relationships between the parties. 3.0 Anne Parish’s Case Below is the application of the common law test on Anne Parish’s...
