Assignment 1: Bottling Company Case Study

Due Week 10 and worth 140 points

Imagine you are a manager at a major bottling company. Customers have begun to complain that the bottles of the brand of soda produced in your company contain less than the advertised sixteen (16) ounces of product. Your boss wants to solve the problem at hand and has asked you to investigate. You have your employees pull thirty (30) bottles off the line at random from all the shifts at the bottling plant. You ask your employees to measure the amount of soda there is in each bottle. Note: Use the data set provided by your instructor to complete this assignment.

Bottle Number	Ounces	Bottle Number	Ounces	Bottle Number	Ounces
1	14.23	11	15.77	21	16.23
2	14.32	12	15.80	22	16.25
3	14.98	13	15.82	23	16.31
4	15.00	14	15.87	24	16.32
5	15.11	15	15.98	25	16.34
6	15.21	16	16.00	26	16.46
7	15.42	17	16.02	27	16.47
8	15.47	18	16.05	28	16.51
9	15.65	19	16.21	29	16.91
10	15.74	20	16.21	30	16.96

Write a two to three (2-3) page report in which you:

1. Calculate the mean, median, and standard deviation for ounces in the bottles.
2. Construct a 95% Confidence Interval for the ounces in the bottles.
3. Conduct a hypothesis test to verify if the claim that a bottle contains less than sixteen (16) ounces is supported. Clearly state the logic of your test, the calculations, and the conclusion of your test.
4. Provide the following discussion based on the conclusion of your test:

1. If you conclude that there are less than sixteen (16) ounces in a bottle of soda, speculate on three (3) possible causes. Next, suggest the strategies to avoid the deficit in the future.

Or

1. If you conclude that the claim of less soda per bottle is not supported or justified, provide a detailed explanation to your boss about the situation. Include your speculation on the reason(s) behind the claim, and recommend one (1) strategy geared toward mitigating this issue in the future.

Tips on Writing the Paper

1. A philosophy paper consists of the reasoned defense of some claim

Your paper must offer an argument. It can’t consist in the mere report of your opinions, nor in a mere report of the opinions of the philosophers we discuss. You have to defend the claims you make. You have to offer reasons to believe them.

So you can’t just say:

My view is that P.

You must say something like:

My view is that P. I believe this because…or: I find that the following considerations…provide a convincing argument for P.

Similarly, don’t just say:

Descartes says that Q.

Instead, say something like:

Descartes says that Q; however, the following thought-experiment will show that Q is not true… or: Descartes says that Q. I find this claim plausible, for the following reasons…

There are a variety of things a philosophy paper can aim to accomplish. It usually begins by putting some thesis or argument on the table for consideration. Then it goes on to do one or two of the following:

1. 1. Criticize that argument; or show that certain arguments for the thesis are no good
   2. Defend the argument or thesis against someone else’s criticism
   3. Offer reasons to believe the thesis
   4. Offer counter-examples to the thesis
   5. Contrast the strengths and weaknesses of two opposing views about the thesis
   6. Give examples which help explain the thesis, or which help to make the thesis more plausible
   7. Argue that certain philosophers are committed to the thesis by their other views, though they do not come out and explicitly endorse the thesis
   8. Discuss what consequences the thesis would have, if it were true
   9. Revise the thesis, in the light of some objection

No matter which of these aims you set for yourself, you have to explicitly present reasons for the claims you make. Students often feel that since it’s clear to them that some claim is true, it does not need much argument. But it’s very easy to overestimate the strength of your own position. After all, you already accept it. You should assume that your audience does not already accept your position; and you should treat your paper as an attempt to persuade such an audience. Hence, don’t start with assumptions which your opponents are sure to reject. If you’re to have any chance of persuading people, you have to start from common assumptions you all agree to.

1. A good philosophy paper is modest and makes a small point; but it makes that point clearly and straightforwardly, and it offers good reasons in support of it

People very often attempt to accomplish too much in a philosophy paper. The usual result of this is a paper that’s hard to read, and which is full of inadequately defended and poorly explained claims. So don’t be over-ambitious. Don’t try to establish any earth-shattering conclusions in your 15-18 page paper. Done properly, philosophy moves at a slow pace.

1. Originality

The aim of these papers is for you to show that you understand the material and that you’re able to think critically about it. To do this, your paper does have to show some independent thinking.

That doesn’t mean you have to come up with your own theory, or that you have to make a completely original contribution to human thought. There will be plenty of time for that later on. An ideal paper will be clear and straightforward (see below), will be accurate when it attributes views to other philosophers (see below), and will contain thoughtful critical responses to the texts we read. It need not always break completely new ground.

But you should try to come up with your own arguments, or your own way of elaborating or criticizing or defending some argument we looked at in class. Merely summarizing what others have said won’t be enough.

AT THE BOTTON I WILL POST THE LINK WHERE IS ALL THE INFORMATION ABOUT THOMSON AND HIS IDEAS OF ABORTION. AS A WOMAN, WITH ENOUGH AGE TO BECOME PREGNANT I CHOOSE THIS TOPIC. I’m agree with the philosopher state

Organized home questions

 

(1) With an initial loan commitment of $1,225,000 and using the initial terms outlined in the case, what is ARP’s expected return if the property is held for six years? Eleven years? Assume that ARP and its investors are in the 31% marginal tax bracket at the federal level and the 6% bracket at the state level. Assume a 28% capital gains tax rate and standard depreciation schedules. Similar projects in the Atlanta market have sold at cap rates of between 8.5% and 11%.

(2) What are the pros and cons of the transaction excluding the new cost uncertainty?

(3) Does the enhanced design required by The Organized Home add value to the real estate? Does it add value to the company’s brand? If The Organized Home moved out of the building, would the design increase/decrease leasing opportunities?

(4) Do you think the development process, primarily the building design process, is different for major national retailers such as Walgreen’s, CVS, or Revco?

(5) Review TOH’s financial statements. What is the company’s financial condition? What will be the financial impact of the company’s growth plans?

(6) What is your impression of the value placed upon limited out-parcel availability at North Point Mall? Is the location really as good as Adams thinks?

(7) Has Adams missed any options during his thought process?

(8) Assess the risks of each of the options defined by Adams as well as any options you believe to be superior.

(9) Assess the probability of the options defined by Adams as well as any new options. Which outcome do you believe is most likely. Which mitigates the greatest amount of risk?

(10) With the new debt and equity structures that might result from the potential options, quantify ARP’s return using a discounted cash-flow model similar to that required in Question 1. Use the same basic cap rate and tax assumptions. List and defend any additional assumptions.

 

(11) Develop and summarize an action plan for Adams. What should he do and what should his negotiating strategy be? This should be in the form of an executive summary
