For this activity, you are to access at three (3) relevant salary survey Web sites on the Internet (such as the Bureau of Labor Statistics, salary.com, or wageweb.com).  Using information from these Web sites, discuss the following.  Your Activity responses should be both grammatically and mechanically correct and formatted in the same fashion as the Activity itself.  If there is a Part A, your response should identify a Part A, etc.  In addition, you must appropriately cite all resources used in your response and document them in a bibliography using APA style.    (A 3-page response with chart is required.)  

Part A

Discuss your findings and   develop a chart illustrating/comparing the different locations and data   found. Does geographical location make a difference? If so, how? 

Part   B

What   was your impression of the pay surveys you were able to access? If you were a   compensation manager trying to price these positions, would the information   you accessed on these sites be sufficient? If not, what pieces of information   are missing?

For this activity, prepare a reflection paper, and consider the concepts that you have learned during your readings. Think about what you understand completely and what did not quite make sense. The purpose of this assignment is to provide you with the opportunity to reflect on the material you have read and to expand on it. This is not a summary. 

In the Unit I introduction to this course, Theodore Levitt’s remarks about the contrasting needs of the seller and the marketer were shared. Levitt described how satisfying the needs of the customer is now the pathway to marketing success. This concept and others related to the four Ps of product, price, promotion, and place were further explored throughout the units. For this reflection paper, respond to these three prompts: 

§ Reflect on how this introductory marketing course has changed your view of how the field of marketing works. 

§ What was the most surprising thing you learned? What do you need to learn more about? 

§ Do you see the rise of consumer power through evolving changes in technology? If so, how? If not, why not? 

Your reflection paper must be at least four pages in length and formatted according to APA guidelines. If you use any paraphrased or quoted material, you must have accompanying in-text citations and references. Title and reference pages do not count toward the minimum length requirement.

For these project assignments throughout the course you will need to reference the data in the ROI Excel spreadheet. Download it here.

Using the ROI data set:

  1. What are the characteristics of a binomial experiment?  Explain how the following scenario fits EACH of the requirements for a binomial experiment.  Scenario:  We select 7 colleges from a major and then record whether they are of ‘School Type’ ‘Private’ or not.
  2. For each of the 2 majors determine if the ‘Annual % ROI’ appears to be normally distributed.  Use a histogram and the measures of central tendency (mean and median) to justify your results. 
  3.   In a highlighted box, explain how having or not having a normal distribution for each of the majors may affect your ability to compare the data of the two majors.

For these project assignments throughout the course you will need to reference the data in the ROI Excel spreadheet. Download it here.

Using the ROI data set:

  1. For each of the 2 majors calculate the mean, median, minimum, maximum, range, and standard deviation for the columns ‘Cost’ and ’30-Year  ROI’.  
  2. Define each of the terms in #1, and explain how each can be used to provide information about a data set.
  3. By hand or with Excel, for each of the 2 majors calculate the probability that a college picked from the column for ‘School Type’ is ‘Private’.
  4. By hand or with Excel, for each of the 2 majors find the probability that a college with the ‘School Type’ ‘Private’ has a ’30-Year ROI’ between $1,500,000 and $1,800,000.
  5. This is your highlighted box for your project: Use the definitions and explanations in #2 to analyze the data.  What have you learned about the data set of each major?  What does it mean if there is a greater range in terms of ROI?  What does it mean if there is a greater standard deviation in terms of ROI? How do minimum and maximum factor into the question? Which major is looking like it has the better ROI right now?  Why?

For these assignments I would ask that you find an article (academic journal, news, personal interview, video, etc.) that pertains directly to the class readings (and/or lectures up to that point) due for that class period. Think of this is a shared ‘current events’ type of assignment. What we are interested in is content that currently reflects the field of study for this particular course. A total of 5 of our class periods will consist of us discussing your findings for half of the class period. Voluntarily, students will be encouraged to share their findings with the rest of the class and field questions as they arise during that time.

Logistics wise, please write a half page single-spaced summary of the chosen article, why it speaks to our course content to date, and a link to your chosen piece. #InHouseDiscussion’s are simply Pass/Fail. Either you do them or you don’t. They must be turned in as a (one page) hard copy to Jeremy at the end of the class period the day they are due. Please don’t forget to add your name and date at the top. Furthermore, late #InHouseDiscussion write-ups will not be accepted under any circumstances shy of a doctor’s note or an academic accommodation. Emailing the assignment will not be accepted as well; hard copies only.

For the years 1993 – 2015, get on the Web and look up the actual end of year figures and exhibit them in a table for the following economic variables: (The Fed Bank of St. Louis’ “FRED” database is a great source – http://research.stlouisfed.org/fred2/ – use the search function).

a) Nominal (current dollar) GDP

b) Real (constant dollar) GDP

c) the Consumer Price Index (CPI) – urban, all items

d) Disposable Personable Income

e) the Unemployment rate

(be sure to name your sources and data units)

A. Are any of the above years recession years? If so, which ones?

B. From the above figures calculate for each year from 1993 to 2014:

f) the GDP deflator.

g) the inflation rate from the GDP deflator.

h) the inflation rate from the CPI.

i) the growth rate of real GDP.

j) Real Personal Disposable Income from d) above “deflated” by the CPI.

C. Using a spreadsheet, construct a (separate for each variable) line graph showing the values of each of the above variables (a through j) over the period.

D. Which 3 years exhibit the highest rates of: a) economic growth b) inflation c) unemployment?

E. Using a spreadsheet, construct an x-y scatterplot of the growth rate of real GDP against the change in the Unemployment rate. Briefly describe any relationship you may observe.
