Create a spreadsheet that determines, for each manufacturing location, the expected profits and how many units the vendor should order from each manufacturer. Assume that demand variation is normally distributed. Vary the annual holding cost percentage and show how the expected profits and order quantities for a range of holding rates from 10% to 40%. Show these results in tabular and graphical form. Clearly organize and label the spreadsheet to show inputs and results (i.e., a user may wish to modify inputs later as more information becomes available). **HIGHLY recommended to follow along with the videos and use the data in the problem set to solve it this way. Will help work through the steps and just have to populate the equations. Things like the CSL* should be fairly easy in each of the tabs. Filling in the "complex" equation just means that you don't miss a parenthesis or other character

The instructions...Write a paper in response to the two questions at the end of the case, with a minimum of six citations from the assigned reading in the Hughes’ text. (Note: It is not necessary to do any outside research beyond the information in the Mini-case and the assigned reading.) Provide a detailed explanation for your evaluation that demonstrates clear, insightful critical thinking.  Your paper should be 500 to 600 words in length. Use proper spelling, grammar, and APA style in your paper and for any sources cited.Integrating Teams at Hernandez & AssociatesMarco Hernandez is president of Hernandez & Associates Inc., a full-service advertising agency with clients across North America. The company provides a variety of marketing services to support its diverse group of clients. Whether called on to generate a strategic plan, create interactive Web sites, or put together a full-blown media campaign, the team at Hernandez & Associates prides itself on creative solutions to its clients’ marketing challenges.The firm was founded in 1990 with an emphasis in the real estate industry. It quickly expanded its client base to include health care, as well as food and consumer products. Like many small firms, the company grew quickly in the “high-flying” 1990s, but its administrative costs to obtain and serve businesses also skyrocketed. And, as with many businesses, the agency’s business was greatly affected by the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, and the economic downturn that followed. Clients’ shrinking budgets forced them to scale back their business with Hernandez & Associates, and staff cutbacks meant that clients needed more marketing support services as opposed to full-scale campaigns.Hernandez & Associates now faced a challenge—to adapt its business to focus on what the clients were asking for. Specifically, clients, with their reduced staffs, were looking for help responding to their customers’ requests and looking for ways to make the most of their limited marketing budgets. Its small, cohesive staff of 20 employees needed to make some fast changes.As president of Hernandez & Associates, Marco Hernandez knew his team was up for the challenge. He had worked hard to create an environment to support a successful team—he recruited people who had solid agency experience, and he consistently communicated the firm’s mission to his team. He made sure the team had all the resources it needed to succeed and constantly took stock of these resources. He had built his team as he built his business and knew the group would respond to his leadership. But where to start? Getting the team to understand that growth depended on a shift in how it served its clients was not difficult—each of the employees of the small firm had enough contact with the clients that they knew client needs were changing. But making significant changes to the status quo at Hernandez & Associates would be difficult. Group roles had to change—creative folks had to think about how to increase a client’s phone inquiries and Web site visits; account people needed a better understanding of the client’s desire for more agency leadership. And everyone needed a better sense of the costs involved. The company as a whole required a more437integrated approach to serving clients if they hoped to survive. Marco needed a plan.1.Like many leaders, Marco has a team in place and does not have the luxury of building a new team to adapt to the changing business environment his firm now faces. Use the TLM to help Marco diagnose the problems faced by the firm and identify leverage points for change.a.Consider the major functions of the TLM—input, process, and output. Where do most of the firm’s challenges fall?b.What are the team’s goals for outputs?2.Identify potential resources for Marco and his team in implementing a strategy to change the way they do business at Hernandez & Associates.

On the discussion forum, please describe the reasons for having a totally anonymous means of accessing the internet. Please also discuss the dangers of that same internet. Minimum 250 words. Reply post 1 Anonymity is often associated with nefarious activities. However, there are some reasons why people should be maintaining anonymity while using the internet. Privacy is one of the foremost reasons why people use anonymity on the internet. It is essential for people to understand that social media platforms do not provide any kind of privacy. This makes it important for the people to ensure that they are able to maintain their privacy by keeping their name hidden or using a secret name. This step is very helpful especially when one is being stalked by someone on online platforms. Many times people opt to use anonymity while using the internet so that they can stay away from the prying eyes of the relatives (Regner, & Riener, 2017). Anonymity is also used for keeping one's identity hidden. Many people do not want to disclose their sexuality to people. This is why they use secret names or remain anonymous. This helps them to use the internet without the fear of being judged. People who belong to the LGBTQ community, are afraid of being judged for their sexual preferences. This is one of the reasons why they prefer being anonymous. This helps them to stay away from facing humiliation in real life as well( Sinha 2017). Whenever one spends some time over the internet they leave a trace of identity over the internet. The IP address that is left behind after one uses the internet, can be utilized for identifying The Identity of the users like the internet subscription of the user. This makes it important for the users to ensure that they are able to browse through the internet anonymously. Software like VPN and Tor can be used for this purpose (Sardá et al., 2019).Anonymity should also be maintained over the internet to keep away from hackers and Malwares. post 2 Anonymous has been used in some aspects for decades. It is generally defined by the definition outlined by Google. In many cases, the term is used to describe techniques used to avoid attention while making connections with the outside. Some such methods require the use of hidden services, which many refer to as the Tor network. However, in some cases, individuals have used tools in the dark web to obfuscate the original information, and to make connections on the Dark Web with other nodes using "pseudonymous" tools. Anonymity tools differ from other tools in their use of pseudonymity for anonymizing the person's identity. In some cases, anonymity tools will use IP addresses, while in others; there will be an unaltered identity that is created on the Dark Web using a hidden service. The anonymity tools used in these cases will be of a higher complexity in the shadows than if it is on the public Internet. The tools have two main features (Adavoudi-Jolfaei et al., 2019). The first feature that has been mentioned by many people is that they have the ability to hide identity while connecting with other nodes. If they were to reveal their true IP address, they could communicate with others using "fake" identities, which will then act as anonymous network. The second feature too many is that they have the ability to create nodes that are anonymous. This may or may not involve a hidden service. There are many hidden services which are created by people that own or operate an information broker site. They do not need to use Tor to do this, and there are more of these hidden services on the public Internet than on the Dark Web (Sharon & John, 2018).
