Braking occurs when brake force F presses the pad against the disk. A large F will stop thecar; a small F can render weird phenomena. As the disk moves with horizontal velocity vi relativeto the pad, the disk pulls on the brake pad via friction. As with many sliders, friction coefficient u= u(v) diminishes with sliding velocity v (see figure) from a static friction coefficient us at v = 0to a kinetic friction coefficient uk at high speed. The negative slope of u vs. v at low speed coupledwith natural frequencies from stiffness and mass gives rise to friction induced vibrations such asbrake noise, squeaky shoes, violin bow on string, or fingernails on a blackboard. For carbon basedbrake materialsu(V) = Uk + a exp(-bv)(1)where uk, a and b must be determined from the data in table 1 below.

Stiffness kp holds the pad to the vehicle frame via springforce kp x1. Reactions to disk-pad sliding contact include normal force P perpendicular to thesliding interface and friction force uP tangential to the sliding interface. The sliding velocity v =vi – dxildt for u(v) of equation (1) is the difference between disk speed vi and pad speed dx1/dt.The brake pad’s sliding surface appears flat but is actually curved. When pressed against the disk,the curved surface "squashes" (like a ball) creating a nonlinear relation between force P = C do/2and squash displacement d = x2 – y, d > 0. When d < 0, the bodies separate and P = 0. ThusP -RC(x2-y)., x2 -y>00,x2 -ys0(4)-71O Type here to searchU9?0A (04))10:32 PM5/8/2019

M-L case q 2 of 3:Exhibit 9 shows the reported product costs for 5 representative products. Based on the product line revenues and costs calculated in question 1, how would you revise these product line costs to make them more “accurate?” Note: Again, specific any assumptions made and additional information needed to give a definitive answer.

Assignment 1: LASA 2: Executive Presentation

The management team was so impressed with the report you submitted a couple of weeks ago, that they have asked you to prepare another report in the form of a Microsoft PowerPoint presentation which addresses additional questions they have about some of their products.

They would like to use this information at the next Board meeting so they have asked you to prepare a PowerPoint presentation using the information below. They want to make sure they have talking points available when they deliver the presentation so they have asked you to use the notes section of PowerPoint to clearly explain the information presented on each of the slides.

They would like for you to design a title slide which captures the audience’s attention, an introduction slide(s) which contains executive summary information, slides which support each of the four sections below including talking points, and a solid conclusion.

They have asked that you contain your presentation to approximately 15 slides. The management team may be asked to justify the information you present so it is imperative that you show your calculations. You may want to compute your calculations in Excel and copy that information into your PowerPoint.

PART 1: The following information is available for GFI’s maintenance cost over the last seven months. Use the high low method to estimate the fixed and variable components of its maintenance cost. Would this be an effective way to estimate these costs? Justify your answer by explaining why this is an effective way or why it is not.

PART 2: In 2001, Ms. Kelle, the head of aerobic equipment sales, started a fitness magazine called the Dancing Elephant. The magazine sells 50,000 copies a month. The total variable costs at that volume are $40,000 and fixed costs are $20,000. An additional storage cost of $2,000 will be incurred if production exceeds 55,000 units.

You have been asked to forecast the following costs for two possible production runs of (a) 52,000 units and (b) 57,000 units:

• Total variable costs
• Variable cost per unit
• Total fixed cost
• Fixed cost per unit

PART 3: GFI manufacturers ping pong tables and has a JIT policy that ending inventory must equal 10 percent of the next month’s sales. It is estimated that April’s actual ending inventory will consist of 40,000 ping pong tables. May and June sales are estimated to be 400,000 and 350,000 tables respectively. Compute the number of tables to be produced that would appear on GFI’s production budget for the month of May.

Good management includes good budgeting. Explain why the bottom-up approach to budgeting is considered a more successful management technique then a top down approach. Provide an example of implementation of the bottom-up approach to budgeting.

PART 4: Computer A has a book value of $1,500 and a current resale value of $800. The computer is needed to fulfill a client order, but if it’s used on this project then its resale value will be zero. The project contract is valued at $5,000. $2,000 has already been spent on specialized software, which will be used on the project and which has no value for any other use. A printer costing $400 is needed for a separate project.

Comment on and determine the costs which are relevant to the decision regarding whether or not to commit to complete the project. Based upon the information at hand, determine whether this project is profitable. Show your calculations.

Submission:

The presentation must be submitted as a Microsoft Power Point presentation adhering to the instructions provided in the opening paragraph.

Use the following file naming convention: LastnameFirstInitial_M5_A1.ppt

Using the Attachement (write the report on Global Racism mostly American)…

Last week, you began the work of reading the research articles relating to your selected topic within your field of study. This week, you will complete and submit your Literature Review (Scaffold Step #3). Take the time now to review your completed synthesis matrix, and consider the extent to which you drew upon a diverse collection of studies. Remember, your literature review will not advocate for or against a particular position, and should not reflect personal opinions, beliefs, or values. Have you included at least 9 scholarly (peer reviewed) sources related to your field of study? What have you discovered in terms of themes, trends, and opportunities for further research? Is your list of articles both broad in scope and up to date (current)? If you’re using older studies (<10% of total sources), will you be able to draw explicit connections between those historical studies and contemporary theory and practice?

A well-structured literature review cannot be written in one or two attempts; we expect you to develop multiple drafts. As you’re working, ask yourself: have you constructed a framework that will illustrate the extent of your understanding of current research related to your topic? Is your draft appropriately organized to present diverse arguments and themes? Have you avoided advocating for or against a particular position? Have you omitted personal opinions, beliefs, or values from your draft? Is your working thesis statement still effective, or does it need to be adapted to reflect the overall work?

As noted last week, the compressed nature of this Capstone does not allow you enough time to extend your literature review into identifying new opportunities for research. Instead, we ask you to conclude your literature review with a summation (in your own words) of the most prominent research and findings related to your topic. You must substantiate your summation by drawing upon well-reasoned evidence from the journal articles included in your literature review and explaining how these findings contribute to the collective knowledge in your field of study.

Depending on the number of scholarly sources used, your literature review should be approximately 2,000-2,500 words, and should not exceed 3,000 words. (Word counts exclude title pages, headers, and reference list.)

This step establishes the foundation for your final research paper and is consequently of vital importance to your overall success in the Capstone. Review, reorganize, revise, and rewrite until you’ve demonstrated the level of scholarship expected of a degree-seeking candidate.
