Do you foresee that the traditional computer will be replaced by mobile and smart technologies as a primary device form factor in the near future? If one looks at the world of education for example, the use of Google Chromebooks and Apple iPads are now running the majority of school infrastructures. Mobile apps replace traditional software. Can the same hold true for corporate enterprises today?

Write a paper describing how the knowledge, skills, or theories of this course have been applied or could be applied, in a practical manner to your current work environment. If you are not currently working, share how you could leverage the knowledge gained working as an IT consultant working for an organization of your choice.

You may NOT use a previously written paper for another class. Your paper should be written for the Clouding Computing class learning experience.

Requirements:  Provide a 500-word (2 or more pages double spaced not counting the title and reference pages) paper.  The paper should include a title page, body pages, and reference page.  An abstract and introduction is not required for this assignment.  Correct use of APA guidelines for sources and citations is required. If supporting evidence from outside resources is used those must be properly cited.

Relevant Cost/Sell or Process Further:

Come-Clean Corporation produces a variety of cleaning compounds and solutions for both industrial and household use. While most of its products are processed independently, a few are related, such as the company’s Grit 337 and its Sparkle silver polish. 

Grit 337 is a coarse cleaning powder with many industrial uses. It costs $1.60 a pound to make, and it has a selling price of $6.80 a pound. A small portion of the annual production of Grit 337 is retained in the factory for further processing. It is combined with several other ingredients to form a paste that is marketed as Sparkle silver polish. The silver polish sells for $5.00 per jar. 

This further processing requires one-fourth pound of Grit 337 per jar of silver polish. The additional direct variable costs involved in the processing of a jar of silver polish are: 

                    Other ingredients    $0.60 

                    Direct labor             $1.40 

                    ————————————-

                    Total direct cost       $2.00

                    ————————————- 

Overhead costs associated with processing the silver polish are:

Variable manufacturing overhead cost                                 25% of direct labor cost 

Fixed manufacturing overhead cost (per month) 

Production supervisor                                                           $3,200 

Depreciation of mixing equipment                                         $1,500 

The production supervisor has no duties other than to oversee production of the silver polish. The mixing equipment is special-purpose equipment acquired specifically to  produce the silver polish. It can produce up to 6,500 jars of polish per month. Its resale value is negligible and it does not wear out through use. 

Advertising costs for the silver polish total $3,800 per month. Variable selling costs associated with the silver polish are 5% of sales. 

Due to a recent decline in the demand for silver polish, the company is wondering whether its continued production is advisable. The sales manager feels that it would be more profitable to sell all of the Grit 337 as a cleaning powder. 

Required: 

1. How much incremental revenue does the company earn per jar of polish by further processing Grit 337 rather than selling it as a cleaning powder? (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.) 

2. How much incremental contribution margin does the company earn per jar of polish by further processing Grit 337 rather than selling it as a cleaning powder? (Round your intermediate calculations and final answer to 2 decimal places.) 

3. How many jars of silver polish must be sold each month to exactly offset the avoidable fixed costs incurred to produce and sell the polish? (Round your intermediate calculations to 2 decimal places.) 

4. If the company sells 8,700 jars of polish, what is the financial advantage (disadvantage) of choosing to further process Grit 337 rather than selling is as a cleaning powder? (Enter any “disadvantages” as a negative value. Round your intermediate calculations to 2 decimal places.) 

5. If the company sells 10,900 jars of polish, what is the financial advantage (disadvantage) of choosing to further process Grit 337 rather than selling is as a cleaning powder? (Enter any “disadvantages” as a negative value. Round your intermediate calculations to 2 decimal places.)

It is frequently presumed that as individuals get older, they become more politically conservative. A political science student wants to verify this postulate.

The results of his analysis are provided in the tables below, but the student is having difficultly explaining the results.

Paper Details

Reference: Pluralsight video “Conflict Resolution in the Workplace” by Stephen Haunts

Research a current domestic or international conflict in the cyber domain.

As a way of checking for your understanding of the nature of conflict as described in the video, write a 1/2-page to 1-page methodology for resolving the conflict using Microsoft® Word that addresses the following:

*Identify the reason for the conflict and the opposing forces

*Accurately identify the key political figures that impact the outcome or resolution of the conflict

*If you were involved with the resolution of the conflict, what style of conflict resolution would you use–the competing shark, the collaborating owl, the avoiding turtle, the accommodating teddy bear, or the compromising fox–and why?

*Do you think in our current political environment we may take the easy way out and try to sweep the conflict under the rug?

*There is one simple widely used method to resolve common conflict that goes by the acronym DESC that stands for Describe, Express, Specify, Consequences. Do you think this method could be used to resolve the conflict you identified? Do you think methods for conflict resolution in the workplace are the same as geological conflicts? Why or why not?
