Module 1: Introduction to Organizational Behavior
· How can studying OB (Organizational Behavior) help you to be a more effective manager?
· Four behavioral sciences contribute to the understanding of OB: psychology, social psychology, sociology and anthropology. How does understanding each of these help managers?
· Select one of the OB concepts given in the chapter and apply it to a situation in your work or school life. How did this concept help with the situation or if it was not applied, how could it have helped in the outcome?
· Think back to a time at work where there was a miscommunication. What led to it? What was the outcome? How can you avoid a similar miscommunication in the future?
· Imagine that you are a manager and need to share difficult information at work (like the possibility of impending layoffs). What channel(s) would you choose, and why?
· After reading “This is your brain on communication” (and optionally watching Uri Hasson’s TED Talk on the topic), consider this: how important is it to take turns speaking and listening? What goes awry when we don’t?
· Ralph Nichols’ booklet on listening skills is more than 60 years old now. Are the tips in it still relevant today? If so, which ones do you believe are most important and why? If not, why not?
Module 2: Behavior and Decision Making
· What is the relationship between attitudes and behavior? Have you ever experienced cognitive dissonance? What happened?
· As a manager, how can you help increase job satisfaction in your employees? What are the organizational consequences when there are high or low levels of job satisfaction?
· There are four potential employee responses to dissatisfaction in the workplace: exit, voice, loyalty, and neglect. Have you ever found yourself expressing one of these responses? If so, provide some context and examples.
· Find the opportunity to meet someone new. Try using one of the tips in Do These 5 Emotionally Intelligent Things Within 5 Minutes Of Meeting Someone, and share your reactions.
· Of the eight sources of emotions and moods identified in your text (day/time, weather, stress, social activities, sleep, exercise, age, or gender), which do you feel is the most critical and why?
· How important do you believe empathy in the workplace is? Offer several examples.
Module 3: Motivation, Emotions, and Moods

·
Module 4: Group Behavior and Teams
· How do group norms influence an individual’s behavior? Give one or two examples of how you have seen this play out at work.
· How can cohesiveness and diversity support group effectiveness?
· In a globally connected world, what sorts of actions might you take to minimize your organization’s environmental impact from business travel?
· Of the five types of team arrangements, which ones have you been a part of at work? Now think of which one was most successful. What led to its success? (Or, if you have not been a part of a successful team arrangement, what led to its failure?)
· When is work performed by individuals preferred over work by teams?

Accounting homework help
/in Accounting homework help /by adminThe balance sheet and income statement do not necessarily show a complete picture of the financial condition of an organization. In most organizations cash is king, and without a sizable amount of cash, an organization can become insolvent (that is, not having enough ready cash to meet its current obligations or purchase merchandise or materials). When this happens, creditors, bankers, and other external stakeholders (people and organizations that have a vested interest in the survival of a business) might become impatient and force the business into bankruptcy.
By successfully completing this assessment, you will demonstrate your proficiency in the following course competencies and assessment criteria:
- Competency 1: Define accounting and its application to accounting principles.
- Analyze accounting data to classify cash inflow and outflows.
- Competency 2: Apply accounting cycle strategies to manage business financial events.
- Apply the appropriate activity for each business transaction.
- Competency 3: Prepare financial statements from accounting system data.
- Prepare a cash flow statement using appropriate financial data.
Questions to Consider
To deepen your understanding, you are encouraged to consider the questions below and discuss them with a fellow learner, a work associate, an interested friend, or a member of the business community.
- What are six terms that you consider to be associated with the income statement (revenues and expenses)?
- Consider why these items should be included as a revenue or expense in a business organization.
Assessment Instructions
This assessment includes two parts. Complete both parts using the templates provided. Both templates are linked in the Resources under the Required Resources heading. Submit both completed templates for the assessment.
Part 1: Types of Cash Inflows and Outflows
You know that the cash flow statement classifies cash receipts and cash payments as operating, investing, and financing activities. Before preparing the cash flow statement, accounting data must be analyzed to locate transactions in both the cash account and other locations. After the transactions have been located, it should be determined whether each one affects operating, investing, or financing cash flow. Last, whether the transaction results in a cash inflow or outflow must be ascertained. Accountants consider this statement to be foundational for a business to continuously operate.
For this part of the assessment, use the Assessment 3, Part 1 Template to classify each of the following cash inflows and outflows as operating, investing, or financing activities:
- Sale of a piece of company equipment.
- Sale of common stock.
- Payment to suppliers for merchandise purchased.
- Payment to lenders for interest on note payable.
- Sale of investments in other companies.
- Purchase of land to expand plant size.
- Payment to stockholders as cash dividends.
- Sale of goods or services.
- Payment to employees for wages and salaries.
- Lending of money to other business entities.
- Payment to government for property and income taxes.
- Collection of principal on loans to other entities.
- Interest and dividends received.
- Issue of bonds to support company growth.
- Purchase of investments in debt or equity of other entities.
- Payment to other entities to cover expenses incurred.
- Buyback of company stock from investors.
Part 2: Cash Flow Statement Preparation
The cash flow statement is an important, and often overlooked, financial statement. However, it can provide important data for use by internal organization management. By analyzing the balance sheet and income statement, the accountant can then prepare the statement and share the results with both internal and external users.
Use the Assessment 3, Part 2 Template to determine the appropriate activity (operating, investing, or financing) for each transaction listed for Skylar Enterprises, Inc., and prepare the cash flow statement using the indirect method in good form for reporting. Data is provided in the Information worksheet in the template; complete the statement of cash flow in the Cash Flow Statement worksheet. Use the suggested materials in the Resources if you need more information on preparing cash flow statements

10 Multiple choice questions in 20 minutes
Accounting homework help
/in Accounting homework help /by adminConsider the following:
o Tariffs are paid by the citizens of the country imposing tariffs, not by the citizens of the country producing the products upon which the tariffs are levied.
o The term “trade deficits” is a misnomer. Every country’s trade is always in balance.
o Trade deficits do not mean the US no longer produces anything to export. The US is the world’s second largest manufacturer and the world’s second largest exporter of manufactured goods.
o Trade deficits reflect a strong economy. Trade deficits rise during economic expansions and fall during economic contractions. Unemployment falls as trade deficits rise and rises as trade deficits fall.
o Imports and exports are complements, not competitors. Both are necessary and both contribute to economic growth.
o Roughly one-third of all US imports and exports is trade between US multinational companies and their overseas subsidiaries.
o Foreign-owned companies operating in the US number in the thousands and provide directly or indirectly jobs for more than 13 million US workers (roughly, 10% of the US workforce).
o US trade deficit in goods in 2018 (as a % of GDP) was the same as it was 5, 10 and 15 years earlier.
o The rise in US goods trade deficit with China has not increased the US total goods trade deficit. It has been offset by reduced goods imports from other trading partners.
o There is a strong correlation between the rise in world trade and:
o The rise in world GDP
o The dramatic fall in the world’s extreme poverty rate
o The rise in world life expectancy
o For every US manufacturing job lost to trade between 2000 and 2010, seven US jobs were lost to domestic productivity improvements. Those seven jobs cannot be brought back from overseas because they never left the US.
Write a 700- to 1,050-word evaluation of credible economists’ unbiased opinions on the benefits, costs, and results of current US trade and tariff policies. Complete the following in your evaluation:
o Evaluate how US trade policy changes in the last 2 years affect global trade activities by multinational corporations.
o Discuss credible economists’ opinions on the long-term effects of trade and tariff policies changes in the last 2 years.
o Explain the effect of recent changes to trade and tariff policies have had on your employer, you, or someone you know.
Cite at least 2 academically credible sources.
