  • ECON5020-?Choose a firm that has a major presence in Australia….

    Choose a firm that has a major presence in Australia. Define the market and identify the key competitors. Analyse the output market characteristics of this firm (e.g. perfect competition, monopoly, oligopoly etc.). Justify your answer using real-time market data (e.g. market share, profit, sales etc.) for this industry in recent years. You should make use of the Herfindahl index and market concentration ratio for your justification. Next, assume ONF rhaugu in the market conditions (e.g. changes in cost of production, new entry or exit of firms in the industry, changes in government policy etc.). How will this change affect the market as well as your firm’s position in the market? Does this change affect the profit maximising level of output and price? Make sure to provide a rationale and justification for any of the assertions you make. You are expected to draw upon the theoretical concepts contained in the course in your discussion of such aspects as market structure, entry and exit, and rivalry between competitors. Use proper diagrams to illustrate your answer.

    The University of South Wisconsin has had steady enrollments over the past five years. The school has its one bookstore, called University Book Store, but there are also three private bookstores in town: Bill’s Book Store, College Book Store, and Battle’s Book Store. The university is concerned about the large number of students who are switching to one of the private stores. As a result, South Wisconsin’s president, Andy Lange, has decided to give a student three hours of university credit to look into the problem. The following matrix of transition probabilities was obtained:

    Description:
    When describing, a writer should aim to use more senses than just sight alone. Smells, sounds, tastes and the way something feels helps evoke an image and create a strong sense of time and place.
    Point of View:
    Point of view is the perspective a story is told from. In first person point of view, the pronouns I, me, my, we, and us are used. In second person point of view, the pronoun you is used. In third person point of view, the pronouns he, she, they, and it are used.
    Point of View
    1st Person
    I, me/my, mine
    We, us/our, ours (plural)
    Focus on the writer
    2nd Person
    You/Yours
    Talking directly to the reader
    3rd Person
    He, she it/his, hers, its
    They, them/theirs (plural)
    Objective or outside point of view.
    Points of View in Writing
    There are three different points of view that can be used in writing: first person, second person, and third person. In academic writing, the third person point of view is usually clearer and allows a writer to come across as more credible. As you move toward more formal writing, you will want to write in third person point of view.
    First person relies on the use of the pronoun “I.” This is the point of view used when writing a personal narrative essay, as you do in weeks one and two. However, it is generally best to avoid referring to yourself, when writing a persuasive or critical essay. Statements like “I believe” or “I think” tend to weaken writing and are better when written in the third person. (example: “The U.S. government needs to pass this law” is better and stronger than “I believe the U.S. government needs to pass this law.”)
    Second person uses the pronoun “you” to refer to the reader. In second person, you are talking directly to the reader. This can be awkward and can alienate the reader. Consider this:
    “You left the baby in the car and it was 110 degrees outside. What were you thinking? Do you want to kill your baby?” As opposed to: “She left the baby in the car while chatting on her phone. It was 110 degrees. What was she thinking? Did she want to kill the baby?”
    Most academic writing does not use 2
    nd
    person point of view.
    Third Person involves directly stating who is being written about without using the words I, me, we, us, or you.
    To clarify, here are examples of sentences written in the various points of view:
    First person: I should learn how to write well.
    Second person: You should learn how to write well.
    Third person: College students should learn how to write well.
    As mentioned earlier, most academic essays should be written almost entirely in the third person. The second person should be avoided, and the first person should only be used when using personal examples that help support claims made in the essay. In addition to enhancing credibility, another reason to write primarily in the third person is because frequent changes in point of view can create confusion for the reader.
    Blog instructions:
    Respond to the prompts below in no less than 250 words. Be sure to use as many sensory details as possible.
    Using first person point of view – “I” – describe your favorite holiday.
    Using second person point of view – “you” – describe a place that everyone should visit at least once.
    Using third person point of view –“he or she”– describe a person you admire. or a person you dislike (this can be fictional)
    Sample description using second person point of view:
    “You stand in the steaming kitchen with people you haven’t seen in almost a year. You wish your shirt didn’t have that tiny stain on the cuff. You wish your aunt’s laugh wasn’t quite so brittle. Feet stomp on the porch and you hurry to let your tall uncle in, forgetting to keep the dog from escaping outside…”

    you are to select a current professionalsporting event that will be televised. If you are able to record this event, you should do so. Your goal is to watch the
    entire
    sporting event from start to finish with no interruptions. You will need a stopwatch of some sort, and something to take notes with. During this sporting contest you must pay close attention to every commercial, the length of each commercial, and the brand/company/product that is being advertised. You must create a timeline for that sporting event, starting with the minute the event is scheduled to be televised, until the programming changes after the sporting event.
    You can organize your content in any way that you see fit. Some students create a spreadsheet to log the commercial breakdown, while other students create a list in a word document.

    1 MoIEST7300: Environmental Management Physical Sciences Fundamentals Assignment 2 PART B: Energy and Classical Physics This assignment is based on the course notes and lectures on these fields. It is worth 15% of the course marks. In your answers, you should state your assumptions and show the steps of your working, since partial marks will be given for an incorrect answer derived from a correct method. No marks will be given for writing down a correct answer without explaining how you obtained it. Strive for a clear, reasonably concise method. Neat handwritten answers in black ink are acceptable. The first page of your assignment should be a cover sheet giving your full name, student ID number, course (IEST7300) and “Energy & Classical Physics Assignment”. The completed assignment should be submitted via Assignments section and will be accepted by 11:55pm on Monday 4 November 2019. Late submissions will incur a 10% per day penalty in marks. You may attempt all three questions, which are of equal value, 20 marks. Question 1 (20 marks) (a) (12 marks) Imagine you are presenting the case for climate action in a debate with someone who makes the following argument: “Sure, climate appears to be changing, but climate has changed many times before humans existed, due to natural causes. The present climate changes must also have natural causes. Human activities can’t change the Earth’s climate.” In less than 500 words, refute this argument and present the evidence that human activities are responsible for most of the climate change observed over the past century. (b) (8 marks) Another person says: “Water vapour is a more important greenhouse gas than CO2. Water vapour is natural and has a much bigger impact on climate. Therefore, human emissions of CO2 are unimportant.” Refute this argument concisely. [Questions 2 and 3 are on the next page] 2 Question 2 (20 marks) (a) Two bushwalkers, Li and Phuoc, each weighing 70 kg, climb to a lookout at the top of a hill that is 100 m high. There are two paths to the top, a short, steep one and a long one with gentle slope that winds around the hill. Li takes the steep path and arrives at the lookout in 15 minutes. Phuoc chooses the gentle path and arrives in 45 minutes. (i) (5 marks) What is the energy in joules used by each bushwalker in walking up to the lookout? (ii) (6 marks) What is the average power in watts used by each bushwalker in walking up to the lookout? (You may approximate the acceleration due to gravity as 10 m/s/s.) (b) (9 marks) A wind turbine rated at 3 megawatts (MW) generates 8760 megawatthours (MWh) over a 12-month period. What are its capacity factor and its average power output in watts, where the average is taken over the year? (Note: There are 8760 hours in a year.) Question 3 (20 marks) Assume that you are the tenant of an unfurnished, free-standing, all-electric house in Kensington. The landlord does not permit you to make structural changes to the building or put any equipment on the roof. What measures would you take to reduce the greenhouse gas emissions from your residential energy use? Try to list the measures in order of effectiveness, starting with the most effective, and explain briefly why you have chosen them. (Be concise! Maximum length of answer 500 words. It is recommended that you express your answer in dot points or a table.) End of assignment

    Writing Assignment 3: Defining the Problem
    You and your team have decided on a project. Describe in detail the problem on which you or your team will be working. Make your description so clear that someone from outside our class could understand the problem–“no problem, no project”!.
    There is a word minimum of 500 words for this assignment.
    Writing Assignment 4: Compare and Contrast
    You and your team have been considering different ways to implement the project idea you have decided upon. Choose two similar technologies and compare them to each other, and give reasons why they would or would not be appropriate to use in your project. Make sure the two are comparable! SQL Server and MySQL, Java vs C++ or PHP vs .NET are comparable. Linux hosting vs Windows hosting is comparable. I’m looking for a explanation that compares the strengths and weakness of each technology as it applies to your project.
    In this assignment, you are required to use 3 citations. Websites are fine but they need to be credible sources (not Wikipedia). I’m looking for facts, not just quoting marketing or advertising copy. Look at reputable sites like Cnet or TechRepublic. The citations don’t need to be APA style, but whenever you are presenting a fact that is not publicly known, you need to cite it. I want to see the actual URL so I can check it if I am interested and want to verify its reputability.
    There is a minimum of 750 words for this assignment.
    Good site for citing:
    https://usingsources.fas.harvard.edu/
    This is an excellent website that explains all aspects of citing source material in a way that is clear and approachable. You may be required to do this in the workplace. I would focus on using sources and citing sources.
    In your professional career, you may be required to write up a white paper describing the pros and cons of each and to include citations so your leadership could follow up in more detail if needed. The point is writing can seriously make or break your career, even if you are amazing at programming.
