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.

What to Submit
Prosecutors often possess unfettered discretion in making charging decisions. The prosecutors essential duty is to ensure that charging decisions are based upon the existence of probable cause. However, some would expand the prosecutors duty to matters surrounding social justice. In fact, K. Babe Howell suggests that Prosecutors have a duty to seek justice and to decline prosecution when prosecuting would result in social inequities. Present an argument in favor of and against Howells position. Make sure to include case reference(s) to explain your position.

2. Defendant “A” is arrested for possession 14 grams of oxycodone. Law enforcement met with a confidential informant, of whom was attempting to work with law enforcement to reduce their own sentence. The informant notified law enforcement that they could set up a controlled buy and procure a trafficking amount of oxycodone. The informant knew that “A” possessed a large quantity of the drug. Although “A” did not regularly sell, “A” was in desperate financial need and would likely cooperate. “A” has no criminal history, but became addicted to oxycodone after being prescribed the drug to regulate severe back pain. “A” routinely procured the drug through illicit means, but maintained possession for personal use. Because “A” regularly procures the drug through illicit means, “A” has personal knowledge of the suppliers, and could identify them. However, “A” is unlikely to cooperate with law enforcement because he is fearful of retaliation. Law enforcement agreed to the controlled buy, and ultimately “A” agreed to sell the narcotics to the informant. After the buy is complete, “A” is taken into custody. “A” is arrested for trafficking, and is subject to a mandatory minimum sentence.
You are a career prosecutor. Your community has significant drug-related problems and associated high-crime activity. The State Attorney has made it clear that drug-related offenses must be prosecuted, and that all attempts should be made to identify and target major suppliers. You find out, during your investigation, that the informant is not reliable, and you question whether the informant should have been used by law enforcement. You know that you do not need to use the informant as a witness, but you are concerned nonetheless.
A. Refer to Florida Statute 893.135. Do you charge “A”, and if so, with what offense? Why do you make this decision?

B. You decide to engage in “hard bargaining” with the defense. How do you structure your plea offer? What is your goal? What advice must defense counsel provide to “A”? How might “hard bargaining” impact “A’s” decision?

Auctions can be an important tool for selling goods and gathering information. Auctions are used in multiple venues including agriculture, eBay, and distressed asset sales.Explain the difference between oral auctions and second-price auctions
Auctions can be an important tool for selling goods and gathering information. Auctions are used in multiple venues including agriculture, eBay, and distressed asset sales. The seller does not have to worry about estimating demand and setting a price because the demanders will do that through the auction process.
Write an assignment examining the value of auctions in the economy by addressing the following items.
Explain the difference between oral auctions and second-price auctions, including how they work and their results.
Use the expected value information to illustrate how having more bidders in an oral auction will likely result in a higher winning bid.
Explain how the number of bidders in a common value auction affects the outcome of the auction. Relate this to the effect on price in different market structures based on the number of producers.
Auctions lead to outcomes where buyers reveal their value for the products being auctioned. To successfully price discriminate, firms often rely on buyers revealing their value for products. Explain the conditions necessary for firms to be able to price discriminate.
Handi Inc., a cell phone manufacturer, procures a standard display from LCD Inc. via an options supply contract. At the start of quarter 1 (Q1) Handi pays LCD $15 per option. At that time Handis forecast of demand in quarter 2 (Q2) is normally distributed with mean 15,000 and standard deviation 5,000. At the start of Q2 Handi learns exact demand for Q2 and then exercises options at the fee of $45 per option (for every exercised option LCD delivers one display to Handi). Assume Handi starts Q2 with no display inventory and displays owned at the end of Q2 are worthless. Should Handis demand in Q2 be larger than the number of options held, Handi purchases additional displays on the spot market for $80 per unit. a. How many optimum options should Handi purchase from LCD, Inc. at the start of Q1 to minimize expected total procurement cost? b. What is the chance that there is a need to procure at the spot market with only 7500 options signed? c. Compute Expected Total Procurement Cost with 10,000 options.

The one file is the Excel that needs to be worked on and check if right. the other is for reference on how to get the solutions. I need the answers based on what I put under “your question”
What is a discipline? What is a profession? What is the difference? What are examples of each?
Nurse scholars have claimed that nursing is both a discipline and a profession. In order to understand these claims, we must first know what it means for nursing to have a “unique body of knowledge.” If we assume that nursing does, indeed, possess a unique body of knowledge, we can claim that nursing is a “basic science” rather than an “applied science.” Despite these claims, debate continues about nursing as discipline, profession, and science. Is nursing a discipline? A profession? Is nursing a basic science and/or applied science? In your initial post, state what you think about nursing as discipline, profession, and science. Explore the literature beyond that assigned to you for this week’s readings to help you formulate your position. You should include the following:
What is a discipline? What is a profession? What’s the difference? What are examples of each?
Does nursing fit the criteria for a “discipline” and “profession”?
What is a “basic science”? What is an “applied science”? What’s the difference?
Is nursing a “basic” or “applied” science?
Support your statements with scholarly references. You may use those from the assigned readings for this module, but you must also select and use (via your literature search) a minimum of one scholarly reference outside of assigned readings in your initial post.
Present your posts and replies in a professional, scholarly manner. Use the APA publication manual to format citations and references.
