They would only end up losing a hundred dollars a week instead of more because if they hired three guards they would end up losing $250 (600-350). So it seems it would make sense to hire two guards. b.) The most the company would be willing to pay the first guard is $400 because if they don’t hire a security guard at all then they will lose $1,250 (25*50) a week and if they hire one security guard then they would only end up losing $750 (25*30), which is a $500 dollar difference. So if they pay one guard $400 at the most then they will still have saved themselves a hundred dollars.

In her Forrester Research report released Monday, Epps argues that when Amazon releases its tablet on the market, it has the potential to become the top competitor to Apple's iPad. The reason? It likely will be marketed at a significantly lower price. "If Amazon launches at a price point significantly lower than competing tablets--some sources suggest that it may be able to launch a 9-inch LCD touchscreen tablet for as low as $299--and has enough supply to meet demand, Forrester estimates that Amazon could sell as many as 3 million to 5 million tablets in Q4 2011 alone," Epps says--meaning Amazon's offering would leapfrog over competeting devices that have been on the market much
Joseph Weisman English 112 Ms. Jennifer Hebert June 10, 2013 Unintelligent Internet Google is one of the most visited websites in the world and is the most popular search engine out on the Internet today. Google allows anyone with Internet availability to have nearly all of the information in the world at ones fingertips. Is all this power to search for things so quickly a good thing? Through the article by Nicholas Carr Is Google Making Us Stupid? He quickly expresses the fact that ever since the mainstream bring up of the internet people are beginning to loose attention spans because they simply have no patience.
Carr states, “For me, as for others, the Net is becoming a universal medium, the conduit for most of the information that flows through my eyes and ears and into my mind,” (Carr, 59). Ever since the Net has been created, it has become more and more powerful and popular with time. I do not necessarily feel that “Google is Making Us Stupid,” but believe that it is changing the way we think and how we go about retrieving information. Search engines such as Google can be very efficient and concise, but this is not always a good thing. Using the internet has changed the way many people read.
Most people find reading books easier so don’t some people like me because I prefer researching on the internet to searching for stuff in the library. Some people will support Carr by saying that the internet really makes us dumber but I’m on the opposite side because I defiantly think it makes as smarter especially with this technology that keeps improving as years come. All these things we have today and are able to access to will not be available without the internet because people or researchers wouldn’t have been able to get accurate information about what they were looking
In fact there are 500,000 book titles available for electronic readers and according to the AAP e-book sales increased by 176% in 2009 and Audio book sales totaled $192 million (AAP, 2009) making the addition of e-books and Audio books to their portfolio a logical strategic move. From a strategic standpoint, moderate game players are the “great untapped market segment of online game players” (Patrovsky, The Market for Online Games, 2003). CanGo has the opportunity to build a niche that heavily markets to the needs and desires of moderate game players.

This project will need $3.4 million less than the P04 project and the only component in the investment, which will be more, compared to P04 is the building cost (378 K$). Cannibalization of other store’s sales As the nearest target store closest to the project is 80 miles away, no cannibalization of sales is expected. And this store will generate a sale of $30.5 million in 5 years, which will be almost 2.7 million dollars above expected sales from P04. This store is assumed to take it’s a maximum market share from Walmart in 2008. Store Sensitivities Even if this store has 18.1% lower sales than the forecasted level by R&P, it can achieve the accepted NPV of prototype, besides, construction cost can increase to near $10 million and still the project can achieve the expected NPV of the P04.

Tevin Hutchinson 11/10/2012 English 102 Technology plays a huge role in our everyday life. I do believe that technology has made our lives easier, but it also has made us more dependent on the technology itself. When using the internet for a dictionary you could easily get distracted.
