Create a scenario in which someone has asked you to compare several things and make a recommendation
$7.50For your final exam essay (2 pages), you will create a scenario in which someone has asked you to compare several things and make a recommendation. Here are some examples:
You work for a lawn care company, and the mower you’ve been using is about to be beyond repair. When youreport the situation to your boss, she says she’s aware that it’s time for some serious equipment replacement. She asks you to find out what’s available and make a recommendation. You know the machines you consider need to be easy to load and unload, able to make tight corners, be fuel efficient, havemulching capability, and be easy to maintain.
You’ve been asked to reupholster a couch for a family with small children. They wantan elegantlook with durability, easy clean-up, and an affordable price. What are their best fabric options, and which would you recommend?
You are a fashion consultant with a client who wants a makeover. She’s collected pictures of outfits that look wonderful but would not flatter her figure, fit her budget,nor be practical for her lifestyle. You figure out what she really wants (the underlying appeal for her in these pictures) and show her some other options, including your recommendation for her new basic wardrobe.
Your father has agreed to assist you with car payments, providing you can find an appropriate car. The two of you have not always agreed on what is appropriate. He values reliability, efficiency, and affordability. You agree that those are important factors, but you’re also concerned about your image.

Technology for reducing injuries in a car crash
$6.50This is a 15-page double-spaced term research paper for a 400 level insurance course at a University. The topic is insurance, and any topic is fine as long as it is not broad. For example, writing about life insurance is NOT approved. Any topics found in the back of each chapter of the book called, “Introduction to Risk Management and Insurance” by Mark S. Dorfman is okay. I found some hints regarding this paper online:Since it’s only a 4 page paper- you may want to analyze just the changes made by one auto manufacturer or automobile make. You should be able to go by one of your local dealerships and get materials their cars and interview a sales manager about the safety features that are in their cars. If you do that– go at a time of day the dealership is slow. Also- call the sales manager in advance and set up an appointment with him/her. Do a little research before you go so you have a list of questions you want to ask.
Cars today are designed to direct the force of the collision away from the occupants cage. Cars have crush zones through out them. The helps to direct the energy of a collision around the drivers cage and not through it. Seat belts have pre-tensioners. Air bags are a well know safety component. Now side impact air bags are more prominentt. Steering wheels in some cars are made to collapse when the air bag deploys – this helps reduce injury to drivers by airbags. Air bag control modules capture data after a deployment. What changes have been made to the reinforcement of doors? What changes have been made to braking systems? When you think about it….a lot of the features of today’s cars are to prevent accidents/injuries.
Also you would want to research types of injuries that result from auto crashes. Cost of those injuries per year. I would not spend a lot of time on the paper here – but this will build the foundation of why these technological changes were made.
Now that I think about it – 4 pages is not a long paper at all. You may need to narrow the topic down to one safety feature in one specific model or line of cars and how that has reduced injuries.

On April 24 2013, a building known as the Rana Plaza collapsed on top of garment workers inside its factories, killing more than 1,100 people and injuring 2,500. It would be known as the worst ever accident in the garment industry anywhere in the world.
It was later discovered that 28 brands that sourced clothes from the plaza included Primark, Benetton, Mango, Matalan and Bonmarché, prompting public concern about the working conditions of garment factories around the world which contribute to western high street fashion stores.
Ethical consumerism encourages people to think about how the products they buy are sourced and produced and which arenot harmful to the environment and society. This can be evidenced through simply purchasing eggs that are free-range or boycotting goods/companies which promote child labour or unsavoury working conditions.
The range of product areas which fall into the ethical category includes:
· Banking and finance
· Energy
· Fashion
· Food and drinks
· Travel and tourism
Ethical consumerism is a growing market; a recent report from the Co-operative Bank showed a third of UK consumers claiming to be concerned about ethical consumption, with a large number of the public willing to challenge and boycott companies which do not comply with ethical standards.
