For this assignment, the student will create an argumentative essay explaining what makes a good business decision. This allows students to use critical thinking in their research to identify the importance of deductive reasoning and inductive reasoning. Assignment Steps Review the “Writing Argumentative Essays” section in Ch. 3 of Critical Thinking. Write a 1,050-word argumentative essay on your approved business decision including the following: Discuss why the business decision is good or not good for business. Define the term “good” for the purpose of this situation. Identify the premise and conclusion by placing a number in bold at the beginning of the sentence with the word premise or conclusion. For example: (1, Premise), (2, Premise), (1, Conclusion), (2, Conclusion). Sentences labeled as “1, premise” are premises for the sentence labeled as “1, conclusion.” All premises should be labeled for each conclusion in the article. If a sentence is a conclusion and a premise for another conclusion, place two labels. At the end of the paper, identify one example of how you used deductive reasoning and one example of how you used inductive reasoning. Format your paper consistent with APA guidelines.

In essay-form, provide an explanatory summary of the author’s moral reasoning by explaining the ethical issue that is addressed by the author, as well as any possible answers to the ethical issue discussed by the author in addition to his own position. In your summary, you should identify the author’s conclusion or resolution to the ethical issue and explain the arguments and reasons offered in support of his position. An accurate summary is the first step in the philosophical analysis and should reflect an accurate understanding and clear articulation of the author’s arguments and reasoning. Important: Please Check Zero Plagiarism

BELOW ANSWER THE LEARNING THE ACTIVITY. THE LEARNING ACTIVITY IS A CONTINUATION OF WHAT WAS ANSWERED IN PRIOR WEEK WHICH I WILL PROVIDE HOW I ANSWERED. LEARNING ACTIVITY NEEDS 3 REFERENCES FROM THE LIST THAT I WILL PROVIDE.
Learning Activity – Theme: Continue Learning the Decision Making Process
Continue applying the decision process to the fact pattern set out in week three by applying the two remaining steps
• Frame the decision statement;
• Determine the objectives;
• Create alternatives and evaluate consequences, assess for risk, bias, uncertainty and linked decisions
• Weight objectives and alternatives selecting the best alternative;
• Implement and continuously reevaluate
Students will weigh the objectives and alternatives using a decision matrix. An example of a weighted decision matrix can be found in week 4 readings. Student may find creating an unweighted and a weight matrix will help in understanding how a matrix is created. By applying the weights, students are ranking (prioritizing) alternatives. Discuss the results and consider whether the best choice is the highest ranked alternative? If not, why is this so?
You are the vice-president of a growing candy company located in an area of town which is home to many Hindu and Muslim people. There are a growing number of local women being employed on the manufacturing floor of the business. Recently health and safety concerns have been raised by the company health and safety committee. They are asking the women wearing bangle bracelets, Sari’s, long veils or long covering clothes remove them and change into “safety attire” when entering the floor. The Hindu women do not want to remove their bangles as they are a mark of their marriage and the esteem to which their husbands hold them. The more bangles a women has, the greater the esteem!
The bangles however, can easily get caught in mixing machines causing injury to the wearer as evidenced by a recent accident. Veils and long clothing have similar problems with getting caught in the machines, as well as carrying dirt and food particles around the floor. In the case of clothing however, there are religious reasons for their being worn. You are concerned that any decision that you make will affect the morale of the employees and may even cause some to quit. In addition it may create problems with the community as well. Regardless health and safety concerns are critical to the business and the prospect of being shut down for health and safety reasons is out of the question. It is your decision to make.
Answer to Learning Activity from Previous week:
Every valuable decision starts with a good process. The reading for this week highlights some of the major ideas needed for a good process. Here are the 5 major elements of a good process:
• Frame the decision statement;
• Determine the objectives;
• Create alternatives and evaluate consequences, assess for risk, bias, uncertainty and linked decisions
• Weight objectives and alternatives selecting the best alternative;
• Implement and continuously reevaluate
Using the fact pattern below and the decision-making processes identified above, students will begin to learn and practice the decision-making process. Create the decision statement, determine the objectives, create alternatives and evaluate the associated consequences, and assess for risk, bias, uncertainty and identify any linked decision. Post your ideas and be sure to explain the steps in the process. Use the course readings to support the reasoning and be sure to cite the source documents in the explanations of the various steps.
You are the vice-president of a growing candy company located in an area of town which is home to many Hindu and Muslim people. There are a growing number of local women being employed on the manufacturing floor of the business. Recently health and safety concerns have been raised by the company health and safety committee. They are asking the women wearing bangle bracelets, Sari’s, long veils or long covering clothes remove them and change into “safety attire” when entering the floor. The Hindu women do not want to remove their bangles as it is a mark of their marriage and the esteem to which their husbands hold the greater the value and quantity of the bangle the greater the esteem. The bangles, however, can easily get caught in mixing machines causing injury to the wearer as evidenced by a recent accident. Veils and long clothing have similar problems with getting caught in the machines, as well as carrying dirt and food particles around the floor. In the case of clothing, however, there are religious reasons for their being worn. You are concerned that any decision that you make will affect the morale of the employees and may even cause some to quit. In addition, it may create problems with the community as well. Regardless health and safety concerns are critical to the business and the prospect of being shut down for health and safety reasons is out of the question. It is your decision to make.
The candy company requires Muslim and Hindu women working in their company to remove bangles, bracelets, Sari’s, long veils and long covering clothes and wear safety attire. This concerns the health and safety of the company, although the workers have religious reasons for such clothing. As the vice president of the company, a good decision, rather a smart-bigger picture decision for the greater good must be made.
The big question in this company is the health and safety of the employees and the company’s product at large. This is being compromised by the Hindu and Muslim workers who wear inappropriate attire for their jobs. As the vice-president of the candy company, it is a requirement that all workers be appropriately dressed for work regardless of their religious beliefs and customs. What matters most in this situation is the safety of the employees and the health of the products of the company. Although beliefs and customs are important, especially for the community, it is in the best interest of everyone, including the community that the company thrives well. (“Generate Alternatives”, 2017)
On the other hand, awareness can be created to make the community understand why the employees have to dress safely. If they understood, then the problem would become much easier to solve. The company can also add in their job advertisements the kind of dressing required so that people can be aware before they seek for a job in that company. The above decisions could result in a couple of consequences. Some employees might quit their jobs. On the other hand, if the company’s health is compromised in any way, the company could be at the risk of being locked down. Enlightening the people on the importance of safety attires for this would be the best decision. This way the company will improve its relationship with the employees and the community. Hence the matter would be easily solved. (“Step 1: Decision Context”, 2017)
The five steps of decision making have made it possible to solve the problem.

Introduction: 1.draw the reader in and don’t alienate her or him 2.indicate why you’re writing 3.give a brief and general description of the situation 4.Transition to body Body(2-4 paragraphs) 1.What, specifically (but concisely), were the circumstances surrounding this negative experience? 2. What main points do you need to make? 3.How will you support your claims? 4.What does the recipient need to know to be able to act? Conclusion(1 paragraph) 1. What persuasive appeals can you make to get the recipient to act on your directive? 2.Is a thank you appropriate? (Almost always) 3.What will your directive be?———- What do you want done as a result of this letter? 4.Is a timeline necessary?————— If yes, what are reasonable dates? 5. Do you wish to be contacted?——— If you wish to be contracted, how should the recipient contract you?

Option #1: Government and Not-For-Profit Accounting Portfolio #1 Your portfolio project will provide specific answers to questions that follow. Apply what you have learned in this course to your answers to these questions. P. 2-6: The nature of a transaction gives a clue as to the type of fund in which it should be recorded. (80 points) Scenario 1: Kendal County engaged in the following transactions: • It levied and collected $1million in taxes dedicated to the repayment of outstanding general obligation bonds. • It billed sponsors of a charity bicycle ride $5,000 for providing police patrols during the ride. • It recognized $60,000 of cash dividends on investments dedicated to the support of a county arts center. • It recognized $70,000 of cash dividends on investments dedicated to scholarships for needy county residents. • It incurred $6 million in construction costs to complete a new county jail. The new jail was funded entirely with the proceeds of long-term bonds. • It transferred $400,000 of unrestricted funds to an appropriate fund to be invested and eventually used to repay the principal on the long-term jail bonds (entries in two funds required). • It recognized depreciation of $100,000 on equipment in a vehicle repair center that services all county departments that have motor vehicles. • It collected $30,000 in parking fees at the county-owned garage. • It issued $8 million in bonds to improve the city-owned electric utility. • It distributed $3 million in taxes collected on behalf of school districts located within the country. Instructions: 1. Prepare appropriate journal entries. 2. Indicate the type of funds in which these transactions would most likely be recorded. P. 5-4: Generally accepted modified accrual accounting practices pertaining to inventories may not fulfill the objectives of financial reporting. (80 points) Scenario 2: The following is an excerpt from a note to the financial statements of the city of Dallas (dates changed): The city prepares its annual appropriated general fund, debt service fund, and proprietary operating funds budgets on a basis (budget basis) which differs from generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP basis). The major differences between the budget and GAAP bases are that encumbrances are recorded as the equivalent of expenditures (budget) rather than a commitment of fund balance (GAAP) in the governmental funds. The city accounts for inventories on the purchases basis. One of the city’s departments, which is accounted for in the general fund, budgeted $195,000 in supplies expenditures for fiscal 2015. It began the 2015 fiscal year with $30,000 of supplies on hand. It also had $12,000 of supplies on order. During the year it ordered an additional $180,000 of supplies, received (and paid for in cash) $185,000 of supplies, and consumed $178,000 of supplies. Instructions: 1. Prepare all journal entries, consistent with GAAP, including budgetary and encumbrance entries that the department should make in 2015. 2. Indicate the accounts and amounts related to supplies that the city would report on its year-end statement of revenues, expenditures, and changes in fund balance and balance sheet. 3. By how much did the department over- or under-spend its supplies budget (on a budget basis)? 4. Comment on the extent to which the city’s statement provides a basis to: 1. Assess the ‘‘true’’ economic costs associated with supplies 2. Determine whether the city adhered to budgetary spending mandates 5. Suppose that in the last quarter of the year, department officials realized that the department was about to overspend its supplies budget. They therefore ceased placing new orders for supplies. However, they imposed no restrictions on the use of supplies and thereby allowed the supplies inventory to decline to near zero. 1. What impact would these cost-cutting measures have on supplies expenditures as reported in an actual-to budget comparison (on a budget basis)? 2. What impact would the year-end measures have on reported supplies expenditures (per GAAP)? Would your response be different if the city accounted for supplies on the consumption basis? EX. 10-4: Investment gains and losses may have to be accounted for differently in nonexpendable than in expendable funds. (70 points) Scenario 3: The McCracken County Humane Society (MCHS), which is part of a county’s reporting entity, established a permanent fund to provide support for its pet neutering program. As of the start of the year, the fund had a balance of $600,000, composed of both cash and marketable securities. The program itself, which is accounted for in a special revenue fund, is funded by both direct contributions and the income from the permanent fund. At the start of the year, the special revenue fund had assets (all investments) of $26,000. The following transactions and events occurred in a recent year. • The MCHS conducted a Walk Your Pet Day fundraising drive. The event raised $120,000, of which $20,000 was in pledges expected to be collected shortly after year-end. • The society acquired food and medicine at a cost of $60,000 (cash). During the year, it used $30,000 of these supplies. The society accounts for supplies on a consumption basis. It incurred other operating costs (all paid in cash) of $85,000. • The society earned interest of $45,000 on investments accounted for in the permanent fund. • During the year, the market value of the investments held by the permanent fund increased by $30,000. Per the terms of the agreement establishing the endowment, all capital gains, both realized and unrealized, must be added to principal. • During the year, the value of investments held by the special revenue fund increased by $3,000. • The society transferred cash to the special revenue fund in the amount of the earnings of the permanent fund. Instructions: 1. Prepare journal entries to record the events and transactions. Be sure you indicate the fund in which they would be recorded. 2. In your opinion, should the unrealized gains on the investments held in the special revenue fund be considered expendable or nonexpendable? Explain. 3. How would the transfer from the permanent fund to the special revenue fund be reported in the government-wide statements? Requirements: • Include a cover page denoting the paper title, your name, the course number and name, your instructor’s name, and the date you are making the submission. • Include 5 scholar references • Use APA citations where appropriate, and include an APA- formatted reference page at the end. • Submit your final case study to the Week 8 Assignment page.
