Based on the book when there are competitive markets such as airlines, a company certainly needs to look at costs and revenue very closely. (Brickley, Smith, & Zimmerman, 2009, p. 180) In this case I believe that the flights from San Francisco t Washington DC should be discontinued. Even though United Airlines is a large company and profitable if they continue these flights in the long run they will lose money. The other option that they would have would be to increase the fares to cover those costs, but since the airline industry is a competitive market people are more likely to go with a lower cost airline. The first thing the airline must do is look at the firm supply.
The current P-plate laws are extremely affective in reducing accidents on the road.This is because they deal with many of the dangers p-plate drivers face while driving, including distractions, driving speed, peer pressure and driver safety. To begin with, the current p-plate laws are affective in reducing accidents while driving because they deal with the important issue of distractions. An example of a distraction that is dealt with by the current p-plate laws is mobile phones. Mobile phones cannot be used by p-plate drivers when driving or while the car is moving or stopped but not parked. This helps to stop accidents because it removes distractions from a p-plate driver so they can focus solely on driving.
Although the Sarbanes-Oxley Act was passed by Congress for positive reasons, there are many disadvantages that come along with it. A major issue is the cost of regulation, especially for smaller companies. Expanding internal controls delay the timeliness of financial statements by adding processing time to accounting functions. To follow the SOX, companies would need to separate duties, causing an increase in personnel. The SOX also calls for additional audits which increase business costs.
In the last 30 years there have been multiple examples of where volcanic and seismic events have had an impact on both MEDCs and LEDCs. Some of these include the 2010 earthquake in Haiti and the 2011 Japanese earthquake and the consequential tsunami. In this essay I will show how the impact of volcanic and seismic events have a greater impact on poorer countries than on richer countries. Although prevention of either a volcanic eruption or a seismic event isn’t possible, it is possible to manage them and reduce the overall impact. In theory, this is easier for MEDC’s due having more advantaged technologies and more money available to spend on monitoring the ‘danger zone’ and then warning and planning for the hazard.
These two stores were in high-crime-rate areas. Company Q should consider, instead of simply cutting losses and closing, creating a more crime-free place for the community and for the stores employees. Not only does closing stores create a higher unemployment percentage in an already high-crime area, but it also takes the profits that should go to the area to neighboring parts. Maybe by tightening up security devices such as cameras and alarms, etc, Company Q could work toward bettering the community and its profits. Besides, if chains closed every time they lost money, there would be a huge loss in just the opening and reopening phases of a business.
The offenses are harmful to not only businesses in the United States of America but to the world of business as a whole and are unacceptable. If the law had been in place, many shareholders would have been safeguarded but numerous investors lost their lifetime savings by company insiders. The corporate world is a much more secure place with regards to investing with all of the changes and modifications which are now enforced. I still think there are other actions which can be taken to protect shareholders even though the modifications have significantly improved the procedure. Businesses must develop an ethical balance so as not to take advantage of unknowing shareholders who have invested their lifetime
a) Suggest reasons why these earthquakes had such varied consequences. The earthquakes had such varied consequences because different countries can respond better then others and are more prepared for disasters. Some countries are more economically developed in such a way they are able to have earthquake resist building to this extent they don’t fall over and cause more damage to the area or kill people. Also timing is a big issue due to if an earthquake occurs at night-time most people are sleeping there are less people are out at night so this will be more save to be in your house. Countries that are more developed are usually prepared for the earthquake to occur because warnings around the area go out to make sure everyone knows that an earthquake is going to occur.
I do not believe this bill should be made effective. Yes, this bill may be efficient. It may make the individuals convicted of armed robbery a person for society. They can take a better advantage of the programs offered to them, but I believe that the cons listed outweigh the pros. If the prison term were doubled, what would happen to the rest of the inmates?
In turn it seems that many of the negative aspect concerning drone technology fall under a violation of rights, and the efficiency. If law enforcement agencies around the country implemented drones into their departments not only would the agencies be able to get eyes on a situation more quickly but could also act as a deterrent because a criminal will never know where the drone is. According to (Copeland, 2011), the Federal Aviation Administration has pushed local
The fourth amendment is sometimes not justice conscious in some cases. This include when a person acts suspicious on traffic, only slight questioning may commence. This intern can lead to the escape of criminals from the hands of the police. Sometimes warrant of search may be made and yet the private property is free of any criminal activity thus intrusion to private property (Butler,
