Write a 500 word definition essay on one of the terms or concepts from the list provided below. Use other modes of writing, such as description, exploratory, and persuasion (argumentation) to produce a well-developed definition for your term or concept. Choose your terminology carefully; you want to select a term/concept that is rich in personal meaning. When defining complex and abstract concepts, your ultimate goal is to provide a specific and concrete meaning for your reader. Extended definitions, such as the one I am asking you to produce as your final essay, depend on examples, illustrations, and narratives. Personal observation and opinion should also serve as the basis for your definition.

Select one of the following terms or concepts to produce your Final Definition Essay Exam :

1 – Integrity

2 – Honor

3 – Pride

4 – Joy

Choose your essay structure carefully. Avoid including details that do not serve to advance or complete your definition. As always, I expect your essay to contain a strong introduction that includes your essay’s thesis, a coherent and focused body that effectively transitions from paragraph to paragraph, and a rich conclusion that provides closure for your definition.

There are key issues discussed in our readings which focus upon the aging process and long-term health care. There are calls for age-based rationing of health care as proposed by Callahan in chapter 10 of the Tong Text (2007). In the same chapter, Kass talks about the notion that "death helps us to be serious about life." He also notes that "Mortality makes life matter" (p. 255).

Tong asserts that perhaps Kass is right: "Immortality may not be all that is is cracked up to be. Death may be a friend, after all" (p. 253).

Consider some of the social, economic and political forces that come to bear on older adults’ well being, and answer the following:

If it were up to you, how would you reform Medicare and Medicaid to be more responsive to the long term health care needs of the Baby Boomer Generation?
Will the Affordable Health Care Act provide a system that can accommodate the needs of aging Americans? Support your position, remembering to maintain an academic focus on the issues.

Literature Review Resources

Due Date: Sep 25, 2017

Details:

Successful completion of a doctoral dissertation requires significant amounts of independent reading on the research topic. This allows the doctoral learner/researcher to become familiar with the scope of the topic and to identify gaps or tensions within the existing literature on the topic. These gaps and tensions become the source of the dissertation research. In this assignment, you will read and annotate potential sources in your dissertation field of interest. Those demonstrating the most merit to the best of your understanding of the topic at this time should be added to your RefWorks list for potential inclusion in the literature review section of your dissertation.

 

General Requirements:

Use the following information to ensure successful completion of the assignment:

• Locate the assignment submission for “Literature Review Resources” from PSY-803. You will be adding to this document to begin building a running literature review.
• It is strongly recommended that you engage in this activity throughout the duration of your program.
• Instructors will be scoring your submission based on the number of unique sources identified in the list submitted.
• Download the resource Literature Review Resources Tool (if needed) and use it to complete the assignment.

Directions:

Read at least 10 empirical articles in your general dissertation field that you have not read previously.

In the “Literature Review Resources” document that you submitted in PSY-803, provide the following for each source that you are adding to the document:

1. The APA formatted citation.
2. A brief annotation of the key points of the source.
3. An indication of whether the source has been added to (Y) or excluded from (N) your RefWorks list.

Highlight the additions to the document so your instructor can readily identify them.

 

Original 10 Strategic Points Revision

Due Date: Sep 27, 2017 23:59:59

Details:

In the prospectus, proposal and dissertation there are ten key or strategic points that need to be clear, simple, correct, and aligned to ensure the research is doable, valuable, and credible. These points, which provide a guide or vision for the research. The ten strategic points emerge from researching literature on a topic, which is based on or aligned with, the defined need in the literature as well as the researcher’s personal passion, future career purpose, and degree area. Previously, you drafted the ten strategic points for a potential dissertation research study based on an identified gap in the literature. In this assignment, you will practice the doctoral dispositions of valuing, accepting, and integrating feedback and reflecting on those inputs as you revise your draft of the ten strategic points created in the preceding assignment.

 

General Requirements:

Use the following information to ensure successful completion of the assignment:

• Important note: Successful completion of this assignment does not indicate that this topic and the related 10 Strategic Points have been approved for use as your dissertation research study topic.
• Locate the draft of the 10 Strategic Points that you created in the preceding assignment and the feedback from your instructor and use them to complete this assignment.
• .

Directions:

Reflect on the feedback provided by your instructor on the draft of the 10 Strategic Points that you previously completed. Integrate that feedback as well as your own new ideas into a revised draft the 10 Strategic Points for the potential dissertation research study.

4.1. Measurement of Technical, Pure Technical, and Scale Efficiencies: CCR and BCC DEA models
As noted above, we intend to apply the technique of DEA for computing the measures of technical, pure technical, and scale efficiencies for individual PSBs. In general, DEA is referred to as a linear programming technique that converts multiple incommensurable inputs and outputs of each decision making unit (DMU) into a scalar measure of operational efficiency, relative to its competing DMUs. DEA identifies ‘peer’ DMUs for an individual DMU and then estimates the efficiency of the DMU by comparing its performance with that of the best practice DMUs chosen from its peers. Note that the idea here of best practice is not some theoretical and possibly unattainable concept, but the DMU(s) performing best amongst its (their) peers, which is assigned an efficiency score of 1. These units constitute the referrals ‘standards’ and ‘envelop’ the other units and, thus, form the efficient frontier. DEA involves solving a linear programming problem for each DMU. The solution to the linear programming problem consists of information about the peers of the DMU and the efficiency of the DMU relative to its peer group.
In DEA, technical efficiency (TE) can be viewed from two perspectives. First, input- oriented TE focuses on the possibility of reducing inputs to produce given output levels. Second, output-oriented TE considers the possible expansion in outputs for a given set of input quantities. A measure of TE for a DMU o can be defined as

An Examination of Technical, Pure Technical, and Scale Efficiencies in Indian …..
θ output = Actual output / Maximum possible output in output-oriented context, ooo
or θ input = Minimum possible input / Actual input in input-oriented context. To ooo
quantify a measure of TE, we need to find out the divergence between actual production and production on the boundary of the feasible production set. This set summarizes all technological possibilities of transforming inputs into outputs that are available to the organization. A DMU is technically inefficient if production occurs within the interior of this production set. A measure of scale efficiency (SE) can be obtained by comparing TE measures derived under the assumptions of constant returns-to-scale (CRS) and variable returns-to-scale (VRS). As noted above, the TE measure corresponding to CRS assumption represents overall technical efficiency (OTE) which measures inefficiencies due to the input/output configuration and as well as the size of operations. The efficiency measure corresponding to VRS assumption represents pure technical efficiency (PTE) which measures inefficiencies due to only managerial underperformance. The relationship SE = OTE / PTE provides a measure of scale efficiency. For the one- output and one-input case, the derivation of the concepts of technical, pure technical, and scale efficiency under DEA approach is illustrated in Figure 2.

Accounting
PART I:
You will assume the role of an entrepreneur. You will CREATE a FICTIONAL organization and consider some costing concepts as you create it.

First, compose a full paragraph that describes the organization. Be sure to include the name of your company, the product (or products) or services that

it provides, and who your intended customer base would be. Think strategically about what you can offer that a customer base would see as valuable, and

what basic business model would help you to be most profitable.

Once you have outlined the company and its goals, please consider and answer the following questions:

1. Identify at least one fixed and one variable cost you will have in producing your product(s) or service(s). Explain the rationale you have for naming

one as fixed and one as variable.

2. Identify at least one potential sunk cost. Explain how and why that cost might be classified as sunk.

3. Identify a potential relevant cost decision you would have to make and explain what parts of the decision might be relevant and which ones would not

be relevant.

4. Explain how opportunity cost could apply to one or more of your products and/or services. Provide an example of opportunity cost for your company and

its product or service line.

5. Identify at least one outsourcing decision in which you would “buy” and at least one outsourcing decision in which you would “make.” Keep in mind

these can be not only production issues, but issues related to how your business is structured. Explain the analysis you would use in arriving at an

item you would “buy” and the analysis you would use in arriving at an item you would “make.”

Your initial posting should be between 300 – 400 words and use a minimum of three sources (one of which may be the textbook). Cite sources and

references using APA format.

Part II: Assignment Instructions:

For part II of the Project, you will develop a basic balanced scorecard, using the template below (PLEASE SEE ATTACHMENT).

First, go back and review the company that you created for Part I. Think strategically about the company, its products and services and issues related

to cost. Then, enter the company name, a short company profile/description, and then create two strategic objectives and two strategic measures for each

of the elements of the balanced scorecard. Be sure that each strategic objective has an associated strategic measure.
