...Student name: Jiaqi Song Student number: 520812 Subject code: ECON10004 Subject code: Introductory Microeconomics Assignment 1 Question 1 a) The information in Attachment 1 suggests that a decrease in demand for iron ore by Chinese steelmakers. Because attachment 1 mentions that price decrease which result in a decrease in demand for iron ore by Chinese. As shown in diagram 1 below, the price of steel dose down from P1 to P2, thus the quantity supplied of steel decrease from Q1 to Q2, which means there are less demand for iron ore. And the article also shows that an increase in the price of iron ore. Price increases leads to a decrease in quantity demanded of iron ore. And price goes up lead to a movement along the demand to the left. This also makes a decrease in demand for iron ore by Chinese. Therefore, demand for iron ore by Chinese makers decrease. . [pic] b) As the demand for iron ore by Chinese decrease, the demand curve shift to the left.

...GNED 139 W2015 swalke27@my.centennialcollege.ca Assignment 1 “Studies suggest that the distribution of income in a given society may be a more important determinant of health than the total amount of income earned by society members. Large gaps in income distribution lead to increases in social problems and poorer health among the population as a whole. Only 47% of Canadians at the lowest income level rate their health as excellent or very good, compared with 73% of Canadians in the highest income group. Low-income Canadians are more likely to die earlier than Canadians with high incomes. It is estimated that if the death rates of the highest income earners applied to all Canadians, more than one-fifth of all years of life lost before age 65 could be prevented.” Toward a healthy future: Second report on the health of Canadians Some perspective Minimum wage work is not distributed equally in Ontario: women, racialized workers and recent immigrants are more likely to be working for minimum wage. In 2011, the share of racialized employees at minimum wage is 47% higher than for the total population – 13.2% as compared to 9%. Fully 19.1% of recent immigrants are working at minimum wage, more than twice that of all employees. Young workers are much more likely to be working for minimum wage than those who are over 25. But almost 40% of the 183,000 Ontarians working for minimum wage were 25 years of age and over in 2011. The share of adult employees at minimum wage more...

One result describes me as a democratic and free reign leader. Democratic leader will make the final decision; he or she invites other member of the team to contribute to the decision-making process. This not only increase job satisfaction by involving employees or team members I’m what’s going on but it also helps to develop people’s skills. Employees and team members feel in control of their own destiny and so are motivated. I feel my strengths and opportunities are that I’m comfortable using reflective supervision with my staff and have many facets in my daily work. I can expand my knowledge and continue growing by identifying the next challenge. I scored poorly under autocratic. Autocratic leader is an extreme form of transactional leadership, where a leader exerts high level of power over his or her employees or team members. People within the team are given few opportunities for making suggestions, even if these would be in the team or organization’s interest. Autocratic leadership often leads to high level of absenteeism and staff turnover. Also the team’s output...

...Healthcare Assignmnet Kelly Hoffpauir April 7, 2013 N2536 According to the preamble of the Constitution of the United States, it is the responsibility of the government to take care of the general welfare of the population, but healthcare is not defined as a right in the Bill or Rights or anywhere else in the constitution (US Constitution Online, 2010). While I believe healthcare is a privilege, I believe the government has a duty to ensure that its citizens are given the basic level of care necessary to consider them treated, whether government or citizens are paying for it. It isn’t defined as a right to Americans to have health care. In the same sense, I feel that the provisional code that states that it is the nurse’s primary commitment is to the patient, whether an individual, family, group or community is where the general welfare is spoken about (AACN, 2005). After reading an article on the website, heritage.org (2010), I feel that in this day and time, the determination of who has access to health care has fallen to the government. It is directly and indirectly related. It is related because the reform mandates that everyone has insurance whether it is from the government or from an employer. Employers are having a hard time finding low-cost premiums that provide the employee with a variety of options...
