Oil the United States imports

Discuss which of the following potentially are valid arguments for tariffs or export subsidies and which are not? Explain and justify your answers. 

  • “The more oil the United States imports, the higher the price of oil will go in the next world shortage.” 
  • “The growing exports of off-season fruit from Chile, which now accounts for 80 percent of the U.S. supply of such products as winter grapes, are contributing to sharply falling prices of these former luxury goods.” 
  • “U.S. farm exports do not just mean higher incomes for farmers—they mean higher income for everyone who sells goods and services to the U.S. farm sector.” 
  • “Semiconductors are the crude oil of technology; if we do not produce our chips, the flow of information that is crucial to every industry that uses microelectronics will be impaired.” 
  • “The real price of timber has fallen 40 percent, and thousands of timber workers have been forced to look for other jobs.”

Strategic Application In Project Management – Activity 13

Activity 13:
The Visionary Leader
Synopsis
When Frank Coleman first began his job as president of Hi-Tech Aerostructures, most managers and employees felt a surge of excitement. Hi-Tech Aerostructures is a 50-year-old, family-owned manufacturing company that produces parts for the aircraft industry. Coleman had a vision for transforming Hi-Tech into a world-class manufacturing facility. In addition to implementing cutting-edge technology, the vision included transforming the sleepy paternalistic culture to a more dynamic, adaptive one and empowering employees to take a more active, responsible role in the organization. Vice President David Deacon was on the transformation team. Coleman and Deacon crafted a vision statement. Coleman laid out broad ideas for the vision statement. When months later, the team submitted specific plans and goals, Coleman suggested revisions. Nearly a year later, the team waited for Coleman’s response to the revised proposal. Once again, Coleman suggested a different approach. Deacon felt that Coleman would lay out another vision and ask the team to start over.
Questions:

  1. How effective would you rate Coleman as a visionary leader? Discuss.
  2. Where would you place Coleman on the chart of types of leaders illustrated in Exhibit 13.1? Where would you place Deacon?
  3. If you were Deacon, what would you do?

Small Research Proposal: Part B (Recommended)
 
 
(Still working from this topic chosen: Topic: how has Covid affected medicine cost and availability?
Hypothesis: covid has made it very difficult for certain medications to be filled, and it has started to rise the cost of medicine for patients.
 
I actually have had this experience personally because I am a type one diabetic and I have a high quantity of insulin I am supposed to receive every month, and I had an issue when I was down to the last of my medicine, where the pharmacy did not communicate with me at all they’re prescription was filled and ready, because I had already been there a couple times for other prescriptions, and they were giving me the runaround saying that they could not for fill my prescription.)
 
 
 
Directions
Due: Thursday Module 4
· Describe your population.
· Develop three scholarly resources in support of your research problem and hypothesis.  These resources should come from scholarly journals, as opposed to Wikipedia or random internet sources, and should help underpin the theoretical framework of your research problem.
· Suppose that you are going to test this hypothesis with a sample. Select a sampling technique to collect and test data from your population. Justify why this sampling technique is appropriate. List the number of groups needed in your sample.
· Develop three good survey questions or describe your experiment. Why will this process lead to valid and reliable data?

HW: Grammar Of Graphics

FOR THIS ASSIGNMENT PLEASE USE THE APP CALL TABLEAU

V            BGraphs are built in layers

Often people see graphs as common types by such as bar graphs, line graphs, scatterplots, but it is more useful to think about the features that these graphs have in common and what can be modified to change one graph to another when designing. For computer-rendered graphics like those made in Tableau, the computer uses functions to make the chart appear as pixels on your screen. Nearly all visualization software requires selecting the data of interest, the variables to plot on the x and y axes, and shapes and colors used to represent data on the screen. These are three of the seven layers commonly used as part of a grammar of graphics. Using this grammar to help, computers relate information by combining matrices of these layers when rendering an image.
For this assignment, watch the embedded video and read a brief excerpt posted below about the Grammar of Graphics. Once you learn about the layers that make a computer graphic, analyze one of the data visualizations from the previous assignments for the layers:

For your selected visual, embed a copy of it as an image, and then unpack the seven layers by naming them and describing them in relation to the visual media.

Overview of the grammar of graphics

Excerpt

Excerpt from Dipanjan (DJ) Sarkar (2018) A Comprehensive Guide to the Grammar of Graphics for Effective Visualization of Multi-dimensional Data. Towards Data Science. https://towardsdatascience.com/a-comprehensive-guide-to-the-grammar-of-graphics-for-effective-visualization-of-multi-dimensional-1f92b4ed4149

Understanding the Grammar of Graphics

To understand the Grammar of Graphics, we would need to understand what do we mean by Grammar. The following figure summarizes both these aspects briefly.
Basically, a grammar of graphics is a framework which follows a layered approach to describe and construct visualizations or graphics in a structured manner. A visualization involving multi-dimensional data often has multiple components or aspects, and leveraging this layered grammar of graphics helps us describe and understand each component involved in visualization — in terms of data, aesthetics, scale, objects, and so on.
The original grammar of graphics framework was proposed by Leland Wilkinson, which covers all major aspects pertaining to effective data visualization in detail. I would definitely recommend interested readers to check out the book on it, whenever they get a chance!
We will, however, be using a variant of this — known as the layered grammar of graphics framework, which was proposed by Hadley Wickham, reputed Data Scientist and the creator of the famous R visualization package ggplot2 (https://ggplot2.tidyverse.org/). Readers should check out his paper titled, ‘A layered grammar of graphics’  (http://vita.had.co.nz/papers/layered-grammar.html)which covers his proposed layered grammar of graphics in detail and also talks about his open-source implementation framework ggplot2 which was built for the R programming language
Hadley’s layered grammar of graphics uses several layered components to describe any graphic or visualization. Most notably, it has some variations from the original grammar of graphics proposed by Wilkinson as depicted in the following figure.
We illustrate the same using a pyramid architecture to show an inherent layered hierarchy of components. Typically, to build or describe any visualization with one or more dimensions, we can use the components as follows.

  1. Data: Always start with the data, identify the dimensions you want to visualize.
  2. Aesthetics: Confirm the axes based on the data dimensions, positions of various data points in the plot. Also check if any form of encoding is needed including size, shape, color and so on which are useful for plotting multiple data dimensions.
  3. Scale: Do we need to scale the potential values, use a specific scale to represent multiple values or a range?
  4. Geometric objects: These are popularly known as ‘geoms’. This would cover the way we would depict the data points on the visualization. Should it be points, bars, lines, and so on?
  5. Statistics: Do we need to show some statistical measures in the visualization like measures of central tendency, spread, confidence intervals?
  6. Facets: Do we need to create subplots based on specific data dimensions?
  7. Coordinate system: What kind of a coordinate system should the visualization be based on — should it be cartesian or polar?
