Elon Comparative Effects of the FIFO & LIFO Inventory Cost Flow Methods Question

What role do you think the personality of a CEO plays in the handling of an ethical problem?

Imagine designing a conjoint for your b-school’s café. In particular, you’re in charge of the daily pizza orders. Pizzas are tricky—while they’re a simple food, they can be created in a zillion combinations. What factors should you test in terms of your fellow students’ likely preferences? Wheat crust vs. white, thick vs. thin, plain cheese vs. sausage vs. sausage and green pepper vs. vegetarian (you get the picture). Design a conjoint that would result in identifying 2 or 3 popular slices that your café managers could order every morning. The student body knows you’re responsible—how do you make most of them happy?

Your required reading by Mladenovic, Martinov-Bennie, and Bell (2019) provides business students’ insights into their development of ethical decision making. Examine ethical decision-making processes and provide research on that information. Next, describe your beliefs and assumptions about ethics. Suggest areas for improvement in student education relative to ethical decision making.

Embed course material concepts, principles, and theories (including supporting citations) along with at least one current, scholarly, peer-reviewed journal article. You may find that your discussion of leadership characteristics is easily supported with such current scholarly research while the information about how your chosen leader exhibits those leadership characteristics is supported by popular research.

Keep in mind that current scholarly references can be found in the Saudi Digital Library by conducting an advanced search specific to scholarly references. Current research means published in the last five years.

ECON 3535 Economics Question

Academic papers in economics are built around a research question. For instance, mine
is “How does regulation distort the incentives of natural gas plant owners to retire old
plants?” The goal of this assignment is for you to learn how to use published academic
research in economics to begin to answer an interesting question. A good literature review
will not necessarily give a definitive answer to your research question, but it will explain to
what extent there is consensus, and perhaps where there is disagreement or more analysis
needed.
Instructions:
1. Pick a research question related to natural resource economics . It does not have to
be something we have covered in class. It should be broad enough to have several
related papers, but not so broad that there are a hundred. a) Too broad: “How does
economic growth affect the environment?” b) Too narrow: “How does the US shift
towards an information-based economy affect environmental outcomes of its trade
partners?” c) Just right: “How well does the Environmental Kuznets curve describe
reality?”
2. Show me your proposed research question early. This is not for a grade, but it is for
your benefit. Submit this through the canvas assignment called “Literature Review:
research question proposal”.
