Xxxx xxxx Dr. James xxxxx ECO550 Managerial Economics and Globalization February 20, 2014 Strayer University Overview Wonder Widgets, Inc. designs and manufactures widgets for use in various commercial manufacturing facilities. Wonder Widgets has been in business since 2004 with a steady and reliable group of core customers. Recently however, costs of raw materials have risen reducing the profitability of the company. The board of directors has become concerned and requested an independent valuation of the company with recommendations for increasing profits or cutting losses and shutting down the plant.

BusinessDictionary.com (2014) defines environmental scanning as “careful monitoring of an organization’s internal and external environments for detecting early signs of opportunities and threats that may influence its current and future plans.” The customer environment is stable and has been for many years. However, pricing has not increased significantly in the last 5 years. With the cost increase in raw material looming and the narrow profit margin, a decision must be made on how to absorb or pass on those costs. With pressure from the Wonder Widget stakeholders increasing, absorption of those costs in the profit margin is the least likely scenario. Passing those costs along to the customer...

...Seeing the World With a Sense of Wonder . In Moore’s novel, Wild Comfort, she explains how significant contact with the natural world brings comfort to you and makes you have a sense of wonder. Significant contact with the world is anything from smelling, hearing, seeing, or touching the natural world. Throughout the book Moore has a sense of wonder and adventures off into nature. By interacting with nature, she’s able to make connections to her own life. She makes it clear that nature has a healing power and people should get in contact with it. Moore defines sacred as a “worthy of reverence and awe.” She strongly believes the world we live in is a sacred place. One of Moore’s experiments that she did, “The Happy Basket”, she discovered that “significant contact with the natural world” is a vital key ingredient to happiness. Each day Moore would write down what made her happy. A common thing that made her happy was taking part in the natural world. One of Moore’s happy moments was, “I’m lying on my back under ponderosa trees by Davis Lake…I had gone out to look for birds, but this is better, letting them come to me” (Moore 26). We are fortunate to have nature, but many take that for granted and just go on living their busy lives. Humans today should take a moment to pause and get in significant contact with the natural world. To take time to appreciate their surroundings. They need to see the bigger picture or you don’t know what’s going on. People need to take a step...

Discussion of Fault Tree Two……………………………………………………… 6-7 VI. Conclusion…………………………………………………………………………………. 7 I. Introduction The Empire State Building (ESB) was one of the tallest buildings of its time. John Jacob Raskob was the president of GM in the 1020’s and enjoyed being the leading capitalist of America. After he was forced to resign in 1929, he sold all his stock and decided to buy a piece of property to do something that the world has never seen before (CBS Team, 2004). That was to make the biggest building in the world. Raskob hired the company Shreve, Lamb, and Harmon to design the building that he envisioned. During the planning of the ESB, Raskob became aware of the structure that Walter Chrysler was building (the Chrysler Building). Chrysler also wanted to build the tallest building ever made and he kept the final height a secret in order to do so. Raskob’s team had designed a building originally at 80 stories high. Not knowing what height they had to overcome, they continued to develop their plan (CBS Team, 2004). On January 22nd, 1930, construction began for this skyscraper...
