Karen Archer is the hiring manager for a coal mining company in Kentucky. Karen finds her job especially fulfilling because she knows how important employment in the mines is for the local community where few other job prospects exist. Recently, Karen learned that top management has been hiding some disturbing information on the levels of toxins in the air in the deeper parts of the mine. Although only a couple of people are exposed to the risk, which seems slight, Karen is very upset because she views the people she hires as family. Using the knowledge that you have about Karen, explain the cognitive dissonance that she is experiencing and two ways that Karen could alter her behavior or attitude to reduce the dissonance?

solve a and b The following table shows the rank attained by male and female officers in the NewYork City Police Department (NYPD).a) Do these data indicate that men and women are equitably represented at all levelsof the department? Test using a p-value approach. Male FemaleOfficer 21,900 4281Detective 4058 806Sergeant 3898 415Lieutenant 1333 89Captain 359 12Higher ranks 218 10 b) There are far more men than women in the police force in general. However, the NYCPolice Commission has set itself certain goals with respect to the positions of the femalesamong its ranks. Across the females they aim to target the same proportion by rank asthey do among the males. The target proportions by category are:(1) Officer – 70% (2) Detectives – 15% (3) Sargent – 10%(4) Lieutenant – 3% (5) Captain – 1% (6) Higher – 1%Conduct a test to determine whether the proportions,…

A researcher is interested in the relationship between students’ participation in two after school programs and academic achievement. She states the following hypothesis in the description of her study: H1. Children who participate in an after school program that emphasizes critical thinking skills will score higher on measures of academic achievement and self esteem than students who participate in a program that emphasizes rote memorization. What are the variables in this study? What would be good names for the variables? Identify the independent variable(s) and dependent variable(s). Describe how each variable varies and provide justification for why each variable varies the way you describe?
Hi is this correct?The management of an oil company is trying to decide whether to drill for oil in a particular fieldin the Gulf of Mexico. It costs the company $600 thousand to drill in the selected field. Themanagement believes that if oil is found in this field, its estimated value will be $3400 thousand. Atpresent, this oil company believes that there is a 45% chance that the selected field actually containsoil. Before drilling, the oil company can hire a team of geologists to perform seismographic tests at acost of $55 thousand. Based on similar tests in other fields, the tests have a 25% false negative rate(no oil predicted when oil is present) and a 15% false positive rate (oil predicted when no oil ispresent).A. Assume the oil company wants to maximize its expected net earnings. Please utilize decisiontree analysis to determine its optimal strategy.B. Calculate the expected value of the information (EVI/EVSI) provided by the team ofgeologists.C. Calculate and interpret EVPI…
In 2020, a manufacturing company instituted a total quality management (TQM) program producingthe comparative report shown below:[LO 17-5]Summary COQ Report(in thousands)2019 2020 % ChangePrevention costs $ 200 $ 300 +50Appraisal costs 210 315 +50Internal failure costs 190 114 −40External failure costs 1,200 621 −48Total COQ $1,800 $1,350 −25On the basis of this report, which one of the following statements is most likely correct?a. An increase in conformance costs resulted in a higher-quality product and, therefore, a decreasein nonconformance costs.b. An increase in inspection costs was solely responsible for the decrease in quality costs.c. Quality costs such as scrap and rework decreased by 48%.d. Quality costs such as returns and repairs under warranty decreased by 40%.e. Nonconformance costs increased by 50% and conformance costs decreased by approximately 47%.
A study on ethics in the workplace by the Ethics Resource Center and Kronos, Inc., revealed that 35% of employees admit to keeping quiet when they see coworker misconduct. Suppose 70% of employees who admit to keeping quiet when they see coworker misconduct call in sick when they are well. In addition, suppose that 45% of the employees who call in sick when they are well admit to keeping quiet when they see coworker misconduct. If an employee is randomly selected, determine the following probabilities:a. The employee calls in sick when well and admits to keeping quiet when seeing coworker misconduct.b. The employee admits to keeping quiet when seeing coworker misconduct or calls in sick when well.c. Given that the employee calls in sick when well, he or she does not keep quiet when seeing coworker misconduct.d. The employee neither keeps quiet when seeing coworker misconduct nor calls in sick when well.e. The employee admits to keeping quiet when seeing coworker misconduct and does not…
8-2 (Investment decision problem) The Heinlein and Krampf Brokerage firm has just been instructed by one of its clients to invest $250,000 of her money obtained recently through the sale of land holdings in Ohio. The client has a good deal of trust in the investment house, but she also has her own ideas about the distribution of the funds being invested. In particular, she requests that the firm select whatever stocks and bonds they believe are well rated but within the following guidelines: Municipal bonds should constitute at least 20% of the investment. At least 40% of the funds should be placed in a combination of electronic firms, aerospace firms, and drug manufacturers. No more than 50% of the amount invested in municipal bonds should be placed in a high-risk, high-yield nursing home stock. Use Solver to solve the problem. You need to have one Excel sheet with the problem setup and another sheet with Solver solution subject to these restraints, the client’s goal…

Constraint C1 is a(n) (valid or onvalid) LP constraint. Constraint C2 is a(n) (valid or onvalid) LP constraint. Constraint C3 is a(n) (valid or onvalid) LP constraint. Constraint C4 is a(n) (valid or onvalid) LP constraint. Constraint C5 is a(n) (valid or onvalid) LP constraint. Constraint C6 is a(n) (valid or onvalid) LP constraint.
In the original OJ Simpson trial, it was accepted that OJ had battered his wife. OJ’s lawyer tried to negate the impact of this information by stating that in a one-year period, only 1 out of 2500 battered women are murdered, so the fact that OJ battered his wife does not give much evidence that he was the murderer. The prosecution (foolishly!) let this go unchallenged. Here are the relevant statistics: In a typical year 6.25 million women are battered, 2500 are battered and murdered, and 2250 of the women who were battered and murdered were killed by the batterer. How should the prosecution have refuted the defense’s argument?
