Q2
1) Conflict of Interest 10 points
You are a purchasing agent for a manufacturer of luxury yachts. A sales rep from a company which makes high end furnishings for yachts invites you to attend the Super Bowl as their guest.
Should you accept? Why or why not? Be sure to use material from the readings to answer this question.
2) Competitor Intelligence 40 points
Read the Case: Proctor and Gamble Goes Dumpster Diving then answer these questions:
a) Is dumpster diving an ethical way of acquiring information from a competitor? If companies do not take precautions, such as shredding vital documents, why should they be protected from prying eyes? Would it make a difference if the dumpster were on private property or on a public street?
b) Although John Pepper acted courageously in notifying Unilever, was his action morally required? In view of the reaction from Unilever, did he act wisely?
c) Is Unilever owed any compensation? What harm has the company suffered for which they should be compensated? [Note: Compensation is due only for harm done. Compare this case to compensating the owner of an automobile in a crash.]
d) Was Unilever overreaching, punishing P&G when its chairman had acted properly? Or is the idea of a monitor a creative solution to a difficult problem? [Note: The sole purpose of a monitor is to ensure that P&G does what Pepper promised, and the cost of the monitor would be inconsequential.]
3) Financial ethics 50 points
Read the Case: Goldman Sachs and the Abacus Deal and watch the Crisis of Credit Video, then answer the following question using the format: Decision/Facts/ Ethical Reasoning/ Opposing point of view/ CST
Did Goldman Sachs create Abacus 2007-AC1 unethically?

- What are the possible actions? (Fill in the options)
- Who is affected? (Put those in first column)
- What are the positive and negative effects?
- What action would you recommend?
Who is affected
Option 1
Option 2
Option 3
Minimum wage workers
2) Fairness
You, the CEO, discover that the supplier you have been using for your APPLEBABY juice has been supplying sugar water, not apple juice. You told your superiors that your division would make $7m in profit this year. If you dump the fake juice and buy real juice it will cost you $750K hitting your bottom line.
You decide to dump the fake juice at half price in overseas markets where the FDA can’t reach you. By the time the FDA did intervene, you had offloaded all but 20,000 cases of the fake juice.
• Evaluate this CEO’s action using Kant’s Categorical Imperative.
3) Virtue Ethics
What virtues do you need in business?
· Identify the virtues you think you need in business, and why.
· Rank your answers from most important to least important
4) Home Depot
In the wake of Hurricane Andrew in 1992, individual price-gougers were selling building materials at wildly inflated prices, but not Home Depot. Following the hurricane, the store continued to sell plywood at pre-hurricane prices. Even when plywood wholesale prices increased by 28 percent, Home Depot announced that it would sell plywood, roofing materials, and plastic sheeting at cost and take no profit. Home Depot negotiated with its suppliers to reduce prices to pre-hurricane levels in order to enable the store to maintain its retail prices.
a) Justify Home Depot’s decision on utilitarian principles ie greatest good for greatest number.
b) Justify Home Depot’s decision on rights morality – inherent rights that must be respected.
c) Justify Home Depot’s decision on virtue ethics
d) Justify Home Depot’s decision on Kantian ethics.
5) Whistleblowing
Read the case a whistleblower accepts a deal in Boatright. Prepare a case study using the following format:
Decision: Was the whistleblower right to accept the deal?
Facts: What facts presented in this case are relevant to the decision. Choose only the important ones (no more than 8, usually 4-6)
Ethical Reasoning: Apply an ethical theory: (Utiitarian, Fairness or Virtue) support your decision. So if you think that the consequences f the decision to accept the deal are such that the good outweighs the bad, you would use Utilitarian reasoning and show that. If you are using fairness, you need to show what your maxim is and how it can be universalized. If you are using Virtue, you have to describe the options in terms of effect on the actor’s character.
Opposing Point of View: Write a justification for a decision that would he the opposite of yours.

Q5
Article Review Instructions
Rationale:
The purpose of this assignment is to familiarize you with the ethical implications of the use of data as it related to this course. You must also demonstrate your ability to communicate effectively in writing with your audience.
Requirements:
- Submit a 3-page analysis of an article that cites an example of unethical behavior as related to corporate or an individual’s behavior in the use of technology/data or unethical manipulation of such. Your analysis should include a summary of the article, your analysis of the ethical problem presented in the article, and how the topic relates to a biblical world view. The ethical problem should be clearly stated. Do not assume that your summary makes the ethical problem self-evident.
- Article Selection: It is recommended that you choose a topic that is related to your major; however, the topic must incorporate technology. This should be a specific event, not an article such as “Five Ways Companies are Unethical with Data”. Such an article may be a good starting place but will not be sufficient for this assignment. The article will be current – from within the past 3 years. You can likely find an example from as recent as this week/month. As this may be a news article, be sure that you are using a valid source of news. You should find multiple sources reporting the same information to ensure that your assessment of the reporting is accurate. Feel free to cite from these additional sources as well as your main article.
- Biblical Worldview: You will include at least two biblical references in your analysis.
- Use APA format, including in-text citations and a reference page.
Q6
General Instructions: Students will choose a diagnostic category and research its symptoms, causes and treatment. They will write a brief report on this research as well as an original case study and treatment plan.
Step One: Select a psychological disorder from one of the chapters covered in class.
- Mood Disorders (Chapter 5)
- Anxiety Disorders (Chapter 6)
- OCD and Trauma Related Disorders (Chapter 7)
- Dissociative and Somatic Related Disorders (Chapter 8)
- Schizophrenia and Spectrum Disorders (Chapter 9)
- Substance Use Disorders (Chapter 10)
- Eating Disorders (Chapter 11)
- Disorders of Childhood (Chapter 13)
- Personality Disorders (Chapter 15)
Step Two: Research the causes, symptoms, and evidence-based treatment of this disorder. Your textbook is the first resource you should use. You should also use reputable websites (at least 2) and at least one scholarly resource (textbook or article) for a total of 4 sources.
Step Three: Write your paper.
- Title Page
- Summary of the symptoms, causes, and treatment of the psychological disorder (approximately 2-3 double spaced pages).
- An original case study (about 1 double spaced page). Your case should read like a story and include:
- Demographics (examples include age, gender, ethnicity, etc…)
- Background information (examples include family, relationships, work and/or school any previous mental health history or family history, substance use, etc..)
- Description of why they are presenting for treatment
- Symptoms (including when they started and how long they’ve lasted) and how they are impairing the individual
- Treatment plan for your case study (about ½ page double spaced).
- Reference page (which should include your 4 references)

Q13
You will calculate several descriptive statistics and make some graphs for the “age” column. Be sure your graphs have a descriptive title and labels on the x and y- axis as “ogive” or “polygon” is not descriptive of what the graph is representing. In addition, when calculating the standard deviation, notice that we have a sample from our class, not a population of all online students. Be sure to use the correct standard deviation!
You will submit the Excel sheet with the following information:
- Make a Frequency Distribution with 5 classes, also list the midpoints, relative frequency, and cumulative relative frequency
- Make a relative frequency ogive
- Don’t forget descriptive title and labels on x and y axis (ogive is not descriptive, what does the graph represent?)
- Make a frequency polygon
- Don’t forget a descriptive title and labels on x and y axis (polygon is not descriptive, what does the graph represent?)
- Calculate the mean
- Calculate the median
- Calculate the sample standard deviation (our data is sample from our class, not a population!)

Q16
In this assignment you will apply mean variance analysis for an asset allocation decision using real data.
Mean Variance Analysis in Practice
Assume you are a portfolio manager for a large pension fund and in charge of allocating funds across major asset classes. Specifically, today is 12/31/2014 and you are assembling a portfolio for January of 2015. Your investment universe consists of T-bonds (Barclays U.S. Treasury index), investment grade corporate bonds (Barclays U.S. Corp index), domestic stocks (S&P 500), international stocks (MSCI World index), commodities (Goldman Sachs Commodity In- dex), and gold. Asset allocation decisions are made based on mean variance analysis.
On Blackboard, you will find an Excel file containing historical monthly net returns for these assets. Assume that the risk-free rate for 1/2015 equals 0%.
QUESTIONS:
A Report the mean and variance-covariance matrix for all assets.
B Report the mean, standard deviation, and portfolio weights for both the tangency portfolio and the minimum variance portfolio
C Compute the optimal share invested in risky assets for an investor with the utility function U = μ − ασ2 and values for risk aversion, α, between 10 and 40.1 Plot the optimal risky asset share as a function of α. Is the function increasing or decreasing? Explain economically why you find the slope that you do.
D Plot the frontier of risky assets. To do so, use the minimum variance portfolio and the tangency portfolio found above, along with the two fund separation property. Use weights between -25 and 15 on the minimum variance portfolio. Add the individual assets as ’dots’ to the plot.
E Food for thought, i.e. no need to hand this part in! Suppose you form a portfolio that invests in both the minimum variance portfolio and the tangency portfolio. When the weight on the minimum variance portfolio equals 5, what are the weights on the individual assets (T-bonds, corporate bonds, etc.)?

On Canvas, you will find an Excel file containing historical monthly net returns for these assets. Assume that the risk-free rate for 1/2015 equals 25 basis points per month.
QUESTIONS:
A Report the mean and variance-covariance matrix for all assets.
B Based on the moments you estimated in A, find the tangency portfolio and the minimum variance portfolio. Report the mean, standard deviation, and portfolio weights for both portfolios.
C Compute the optimal share invested in risky assets for an investor with the utility function U = μ − ασ2 and values for risk aversion, α, between 10 and 40.1 Plot the optimal risky asset share as a function of α. Is the function increasing or decreasing? Explain economically why you find the slope that you do.
D Plot the frontier of risky assets. To do so, use the minimum variance portfolio and the tangency portfolio found above, along with the two fund separation property. Use weights between -25 and 15 on the minimum variance portfolio (i.e. -2500% to 1500%). Add the individual assets as ’dots’ to the plot.
E Suppose you form a portfolio that invests in both the minimum variance portfolio and the tangency portfolio. If the weight on the minimum variance portfolio equals 40%, what are the weights on the individual assets (T-bonds, corporate bonds, etc.)?
1Start by computing the optimal share in risky assets for a value of α = 10. Repeat for α = 11, α = 12 etc.

Personal EcoPlan (250pts)
Whatever you do may seem insignificant, but it is most important that you do it.
~Gandhi
One of the goals of the course is to help you understand your roles as “stewards of the living world”. For this assignment, you will be expected to synthesize the components of this class and place them in the context of YOUR life. You will be drawing on information from class, graphing skills, and writing skills developed in previous assignments, so be sure to refer back to those assignments.
Final Personal EcoPlan Paper (200 pts):
This paper should be between 5-10 pages, 12-point font, double-spaced, and must use scientific writing format (APA).
Introduction: You will be exploring 2 environmental issues (see list below) that you find interesting. Thoroughly examine and explain each environmental issue. This should include: Why this is an environmental issue? What are the causes of the issue? What are the connections between these issues? What are your connections to these issues? Finally, you will conclude your introduction with a statement of intent. The statement of intent will be explaining what you intend to accomplish in a broad sense for this research. Citations will be needed in this section (at least 4).
- • Increase of greenhouse gases into atmosphere (climate change)
- • Freshwater Pollution
- • Soil Degradation/Pollution
- • Air Pollution
- • Water scarcity
- • Waste Management (Disposal and Recycling)
- • Habitat Destruction/Degradation
- • Wildlife Endangerment
- • Sustainable Agriculture
- • Marine Degradation/Pollution
Methods: Now for each of the environmental issues that you selected, determine a habit (you should have 2 different habits) in your life that exacerbates the issue. How could you help decrease your impact on the Earth? Use your 2 habits and how they are connected to illustrate how you could become more environmentally friendly. This should include at least 2 changes you could implement (be explicit). Use the pillars of sustainability to evaluate the pros and cons.
Results: How do your changes lessen your environmental footprint? Determine how, quantifiably (meaning this must include numbers and math), your change will help solve Personal EcoPlan 2 the environmental issue it is associated with. This will also include 3 graphs, 1 for each habit and then one that combines your habits to evaluate your overall effect on your environmental footprint. Notice this section focuses on the environmental pillar; therefore, your math and graphs should not display money.
Discussion: Explain how your changes together can reduce your overall impact and why that is important. This should include a citation and your opinion. What does this mean to you? Does this lead you to think about other issues/solutions/questions? Does the standard of Living have to decrease in order to be a steward for the living world? Cite with examples and discuss your own.
Q19
BUS 301: Discussion Board Forum Instructions
There are 3 Discussion Board (DB) Forum assignments in this course. Each DB Forum will be completed in 2 parts: 1) a minimum 300-word thread in response to the presented case study, and 2) minimum 100-word replies to the threads of 2 classmates. All posts must be supported by research and Biblical worldview sources.
Thread
To begin a discussion assignment, review the case study presented in the forum and consider the questions at the end. Research sources in support of your answers. At least 2 sources, cited in-text and in a reference list, in current APA format, must be used, and can include the Bible. Then, compose a post that addresses those questions and incorporates your research as well as Biblical integration. (Note that the reference list does not count toward the word count requirements.) The purpose of this research criterion is to encourage you to contribute academic content to the course; failure to do so will result in a substantial deduction from your grade. First-person voice is allowed, but your writing must otherwise be as professional as possible. It must be free of spelling, punctuation, usage, citation, and grammar errors.
When you have finished composing your post in a word processor, create a thread in the forum and copy and paste your content into the thread.
Replies
Read the threads posted by your classmates. Choose 2 threads, selecting at least 1 that presents the opposite conclusion of your thread. Compose a reply for each using a word processor. Each response must incorporate at least 1 scholarly source to support your conclusions and ideas, as well as Biblical application. Note that “I like what you said,” “that’s a good comment,” and “I disagree with your comment” do not count as a complete reply. State reasons that support your conclusions, adding additional ideas/thoughts, or providing alternative ideas/thoughts. Communication must follow Student Expectations.
With a thread opened on your computer screen, click on “Reply” and then copy and paste your reply into the message box. To enhance the dynamic nature of discussion, replies must be posted on different days (as stated above).
NOTE: Attachments must not be used for posts or replies because they inhibit the flow of discussion. Accordingly, posts and replies posted as attachments will be given a grade of 0.
Post-First
This course utilizes the Post-First feature in all Discussion Board Forums. This means you will only be able to read and interact with your classmates’ threads after you have submitted your thread in response to the provided prompt. For additional information on Post-First, click here for a tutorial.
Each forum discussion takes place over a period of 2 module/weeks:
Submit each thread by 11:59 p.m. (ET) on Monday of the assigned module/week.
Two replies must be submitted on different days. Submit the first reply for DB 1 and DB 2 by 11:59 p.m. (ET) on the Thursday following the thread, and submit the second reply by 11:59 p.m. (ET) on Monday of the following module/week. Submit the first reply for DB 3 by 11:59 p.m. (ET) on Wednesday and the second reply by 11:59 p.m. (ET) on Friday of Module/Week 8.

Proposal:
Gender and Negotiations
I have chosen to focus on the relation of gender/sex and negotiations. Negotiations occur throughout our daily lives and there are many factors that can sway the outcome of those negotiations. The differences of gender/sex is a huge theme throughout most things we deal with in society. It is very important to study the differences in which people of different gender identities and sex exisit in the world of negotiations. With this understanding we can better understand the outcomes of many negotiations. Understanding how different identities are treated by others in negotiation, we can gain ways to overcome disadvantages that result from gender differences and stereotypes. With this knowledge we can perfect the way in which certain genders should proceed in negotiations in order to gain the best result possible.

Students are to create a Word document and answer the following set of issues in a well-researched, referenced, and thoughtful paper.
Option 1: Religion has been a major way that people around the world and across time have tried to understand themselves and the world around them. Some people feel that religion is more, or less, important than ever before. Religion has always had political ramifications. In this paper, reflect upon religion as a social institution and talk about where you think it is headed and why.
-OR-
Option 2: Religion could be something that binds people together. Often it is something that instead tears people, or cultures, apart. Why is this the case? What themes are constants in all faiths? What are the major differences in various religions? Can religion be a transformative factor in the world today, and if you think so, in what ways?

Q25
Description:
Many people decide to take a forensic psychology course because it is a popular topic that is portrayed on television and in movies, books, and other media. What is portrayed in the media, however, may not always be accurate. Your Final Project will require you to consider the material we have covered in this course and contrast it with how accurately forensic psychology is portrayed in the media.
Instructions:
1. Your Final Project is a research paper.
2. You will be writing about two separate forensic psychology topics we have covered in this course.
a. First, select the two topics, e.g., police investigations and discipline, competency, serial killers, insanity defense, juvenile delinquents, battered woman syndrome, domestic/family violence, child abuse, recovered memories, child custody, risk assessment, witness and jury selection, expert witness testimony, death penalty, ethical considerations, etc. You get to select the two topics.
b. Next, find a medium that covers aspects of each forensic psychology topic you plan to write about in your research paper. This might include, but is not limited to some of the following: TV programs such as “Law and Order;” fictional and non-fictional books; court cases; news stories; actual life stories; movies or plays; music; etc.
3. You may select more than one type of medium. For example, you might use a TV program for one topic and a book for the second topic.
4. Your research paper will be divided into two sections, as you will be discussing the two forensic psychology topics you selected in separate sections.
a. Introduce each topic with an introductory paragraph.
b. Fully discuss each topic. This is the main research component of your paper where you demonstrate your understanding of the topic and how law and forensic psychology work together. Your research should expand upon what we covered during the course and should cover at a minimum the following: — How does psychology relate to the legal issues raised by your topic? What are the tensions between psychology and law with respect to your topic? What roles do forensic psychologists play concerning your topic? What other aspects are important in fully explaining your topic?
c. Demonstrate your understanding of each topic and how psychology relates to law by integrating each topic discussion with the fictional or real life story from the medium you selected.
(1) You must use one fictional or real life example for each topic. For example, I could use a “Law and Order” program to discuss police officer discipline and a news story to discuss the death penalty.
(2) Discuss how forensic psychology concepts covered in the course are portrayed in the medium.
(3) Discuss whether the portrayal in the medium is realistic and accurate and where it concurs or conflicts with concepts and material we have covered in the course. For example, in discussing the topic of domestic abuse, I might review a newspaper account of a domestic abuse case and relate the battered woman syndrome to the account. I could also discuss whether the journalist is sensationalizing the domestic abuse story or whether it realistically portrays domestic abuse issues.
5. Your paper must be double-spaced, use normal typeface and margins, and be a minimum of 7-8 pages (about 4 pages for each topic) and should comply with APA format. At the end of the paper you must include references — at least two references for each of your topics (minimum of four references). You must have at least one book (this can be your Textbook) or journal article and the remaining references must be quality references, which does not include references such as Wikipedia. Your references should be properly formatted using APA style.
6. Your research paper should be professional and include logical organization, proper grammar, word usage, spelling, and punctuation. You must also follow the instructions and meet the minimum requirements for this research paper, including page length.
