Evidence can be grouped into categories involving the same color, size, model, brand, caliber, patterns, and other various descriptives. These items of evidence fall into groups of evidence having class characteristics, which display similarities but do not identify them as a match conclusively. List 3 items of evidence and what characteristics they might have that would be considered class characteristics. Relate why they fall into the category of class characteristics.
Evidence can be grouped into categories involving the same color, size, model, brand, caliber, patterns, and other various descriptives. These items of evidence fall into groups of evidence having class characteristics, which display similarities but do not identify them as a match conclusively.
Items that match conclusively indicate that a certain item of evidence made impressions from normal wear or defects that make it unique. Only that item of evidence could have made those impressions or markings or only that item of evidence can be compared to another piece of evidence, showing that the two pieces were one. Those items of evidence have individual characteristics and to the exclusion of all others rule out any other similar item matching them.

choose only one question from the 2
Discussion Question 1:
One of the problems in a competitive market environment is deadweight losses.
What are deadweight losses, and what are their causes?What are the market effects of a deadweight loss?What are the major factors that determine who will bear the burden of a tax or the incidence of a tax?
Discussion Question 2:
Adam Smith, usually referred to as the father of economics, expounded the theory of free markets and opposed any form of concentration of economic power. He believed that any authority establishing a price that provided a fair price to the providers of the factors of production would distort the market’s natural ability to determine prices and output levels. In general, he believed that competitive markets would allocate resources to their highest and best use. However, in recent times, we have seen the market mechanism fail and allocate too many or too few resources to the consumption or production of some goods and services.
What are some of the reasons for this failure?
Has government intervention into competitive markets changed the efficiency of these markets? Why or why not?
Was Smith correct or incorrect in his theories concerning the efficiency of the markets in allocation of resources?
Justify your answer.
Start reviewing and responding to at least two of your classmates’ postings

Create a feasibility and competitive analysis report to determine the likelihood of success for a proposed new venture. Include the macro environment affecting your venture’s industry, the value proposition, the main customer segments, and a competitive analysis for your new venture.
This assessment examines ways to identify customers and target markets as well as how to conduct a feasibility and competitive analysis report for a new venture. You will conduct a feasibility and competitive analysis that:
Analyzes the macro environment affecting your venture’s industry.
Specifies the value proposition.
Identifies the main customer segment.
Conducts a competitive analysis for your new venture.
A bootstrap marketing plan can be used to identify customers and target markets for a new venture. The goal of marketing is to create and deliver desired goods and services to customers, and it includes all of the activities for winning and retaining loyal customers (Scarborough & Cornwall, 2019). These activities include identification of the customers who are most likely to buy products or services from your business and focusing marketing efforts on these customers. A competitive and feasibility analysis can be used to identify the viability of a business idea. This analysis is the first step in determining if there is a market for the new venture’s product(s) and/or service(s), and determines how much the product(s) and/or service(s) appeal to potential customers.
