Skycell, a major European cell phone manufacturer, is making production plans for the coming year. Skycell has worked with its customers (the service providers) to come up with the forecasts of monthly requirements (in thousands of phones) as shown in the table.

Manufacturing is primarily an assembly operation, and capacity is governed by the number of people on the production line. The plant operates for 20 days a month, eight hours each day. One person can assemble a phone every 10 minutes. Workers are paid 20 euros per hour and a 50 percent premium for overtime. The plant currently employs 1,250 workers. Component costs for each cellphone total 20 euros. Given the rapid decline in component and finished-product prices, carrying inventory from one month to the next incurs a cost of 3 euros per phone per month. Skycell currently has a no-layoff policy in place. Overtime is limited to a maximum of 20 hours per month per employee. Assume that Skycell has a starting inventory of 50,000 units and wants to end the year with the same level of inventory.

1. Assuming no backlogs, no subcontracting, and no new hires, formulate the aggregate planning problem to minimize the total cost. (8 pts)
2. Assume Skycell aims for a level production schedule, all stockouts are backlogged and supplied from the following months’ production, what changes you need to make in your formulation? (6 pts)
3. Now Skecell has a team of 50 people who are willing to work as seasonal workers. Hiring and layoff out of the 50 people is possible. The cost of bringing them is 800 euros per employee and the layoff cost is 1,200 euros per employee. How do you change your formulation in part 1? (6 pts)

4. Solve part 1, Part 2 and Part 3 in excel. Is there any value for management to negotiate an increase of allowed overtime per employee per month from 20 hours to 40 hours? (10 pts)

The Impact of childhood trauma on adult mental health

The consequences of childhood trauma on mental health are an important issue that affects many people throughout the world. Understanding these consequences can help individuals and society develop better an effective solution to this problem, which is faced by a large number of people. By studying the effects of childhood trauma on adult mental health, we can raise awareness and reduce stigma regarding mental health conditions, especially those related to trauma. As I explore this topic, I hope to gain a deeper understanding of how childhood trauma impacts a person’s life and identify possible solutions to promote healing.

Research review option –For this option, you will construct a detailed review of previous peer-

reviewed academic research on a topic of your choice. Your review should be detailed and
demonstrate a deep understanding of the research on your topic, but it should also be presented in a
way that would be clear and understandable to a general audience of people who are interested in
your topic but are not themselves experts on research methods. If you select this option, you do not
need to present a research design for a new project. However, you are expected to conduct a very
thorough review of previous research on your topic featuring the following elements: (a) cite and
summarize at least 5 academic references (books or published peer-reviewed articles) that clearly
relate to your topic and discuss what each reference contributes to our understanding of your
research topic; (b) discuss the key concepts used in these studies, how they are defined, and how the
authors have operationalized them; (c) what kinds of data have been used in these studies, and how
do the authors deal with issues of sampling, generalizability, causation, and ethics; (d) what you see
as key strengths and/or weaknesses of the research that has been done on your topic; and (e) a brief
concluding summary of the conclusions we can draw from the research that has been done on your
topic.

Scientific paper option – If you select this option, I expect a 3-5 page scientific-style paper that is
clearly organized and well-written.

Part of the requirements of this class is exercise. As the Catalog Description states, “A combination of physical activity and lecture providing regular exercise to develop physical fitness.”

You are required to exercise 3 times per week.

Each week I will provide 3 recorded yoga classes so you can exercise at home at your convenience.

Each class is approximately 35-50 minutes long.

When you have completed all three classes you will submit your answers to the following questions.

1. What did you enjoy about each of the three classes? Please designate each class. For example, in Class #1: I enjoyed the feeling of relaxation after I was done taking the class. I enjoyed the shoulder stretches because I have limited movement in my shoulders. I had a difficult time with the one-legged balance. You may discuss specific poses and exercises that you experienced in each of the videos. You will say something about each class. Please talk specifically about the classes so I know you are practicing along with each video.
2. What was difficult about the class, or did anything hurt? Be specific. For example, in Class #1: I can’t sit cross-legged on the floor. Is there another way I can complete the exercise without my legs hurting? That way I can help. You may also ask a question and I will answer your question in the comments area when I grade your weekly exercise assignment.

Submit your assignment at the end of each module/week.

You may type your answers into the text box, or attach in doc, docx, or pdf.

Informed consent is when a healthcare provider educates a patient about a procedure’s risks, benefits, and alternatives. The patient needs to understand that to which he or she has consented.

The consent is only effective if the patient understands it. Informed consent is the physician’s responsibility to discuss a proposed medical procedure with the patient. Oral consent is as binding as written consent, but the latter provides evidence of the patient’s wishes. Written consent should consist of essential elements to be considered legal. They are

1. the nature of the patient’s illness or injury,
2. the name of the proposed procedure or treatment,
3. the purpose of the proposed treatment,
4. the risks and the probable consequences of the proposed treatment,
5. the probability that the proposed treatment will be successful,
6. any alternative methods of treatment along with their associated risks and benefits,
7. the risks and the prognosis if no treatment is rendered,
8. an indication that the patient understands elements 1-7,
9. the signature of the patient, and
10. the date the consent is signed.

Physicians must disclose the informed consent to their patients with all the elements involved, or they may be charged with a civil offense like gross negligence. All the elements of the informed consent need to be clear for the patient before undergoing the proposed procedure. If one of the elements is not adhered to, some patients might question the procedure they succumbed to and wonder about the success rate and alternatives. If the risks and probable consequences of the treatment were not discussed and the patient, unfortunately, suffered from it, there might be a case against the physician for not disclosing. Suppose the patient agreed to a specific procedure and discovered an alternative procedure that the physician did not include in the informed consent. In that case, the patient may question his or her right to be free of unwanted medical treatment.

For example, a patient needed to remove a lump on her breast. The physician suggested performing a mastectomy and did not discuss any other alternatives like lumpectomy; the patient might question why he/she succumbed to a drastic procedure if there was an alternative.

Post #2 – Indeerpret

Informed consent is an essential aspect of medical practice that requires a healthcare provider to obtain a patient’s voluntary agreement to a proposed medical intervention or treatment after providing adequate information about the procedure’s benefits, risks, and alternatives. The elements of informed consent include disclosure of information, understanding, voluntariness, and competence (Beauchamp & Childress, 2019).

Disclosure of information entails providing the patient with relevant information about the medical intervention or treatment, including its purpose, risks, benefits, and potential alternatives. Understanding requires the patient to comprehend and process the information the healthcare provider provides. Voluntariness implies that the patient freely consents to medical intervention without coercion or duress. Competence means the patient can make sound decisions based on the information provided.

Failure to adhere to the elements of informed consent can have severe consequences for patients. For instance, if a healthcare provider fails to provide adequate information or obtain the patient’s voluntary agreement, the patient may experience adverse effects or complications due to the medical intervention. In a clinical example, a patient may undergo surgery without adequately disclosing the potential risks and benefits, leading to postoperative complications that the patient did not expect (Jones et al., 2020).

In conclusion, adherence to informed consent is crucial in ensuring that patients make informed decisions about their medical care. Healthcare providers must provide adequate information, ensure patient understanding, obtain voluntary agreement, and assess patient competence to avoid adverse outcomes.
