Use a flow chart and an accompanying memo to explain a problem with a process with which you are familiar. For
example, the problem could be a bottleneck where work accumulates and is not processed timely, or a step where two events depend on each other with the effect that they impede each other’s progress.

In your memo, suggest a solution to the problem you have identified. Create a new flow chart that illustrates how your
solution solves the problem. Request permission from your manager to implement the solution, either as a pilot project or as a parallel system that will demonstrate the effectiveness of your solution. Be clear in stating your
rationale and that you want to explore how to best resolve the issue.

The complete package of materials should not exceed five pages of narrative and two pages of flow charts (one page
per flow chart). The narrative is expected to be at least 900 words. There will be a proportionate deduction for short papers.

Family First Farm is a small family-owned business in Florida that grows a variety of fruits and vegetables. Although Family First Farm is a small business, they employee 15 full-time employees. Depending on the time of the year, the farm may employ 20 to 30 temporary hourly employees. They also operate several small retail outlets that sell a variety of products that appeal to families that enjoy healthy foods. The stores also sell small inexpensive household trinkets such as cookware, aprons, cookbooks, and handcrafted knick-knacks. Over the past few months, Family First Farm experienced an unusual amount of legal problems. The owner of Family First Farm, Oliver Douglas, consults with the senior partner of the law firm where you work. The senior partner asks you to prepare a legal memo outlining the law as it relates to the issues, as well as an analysis of actions the corporation should take to remedy each situation. Family First Farm was founded in 2006 by the Douglas family. Because it was a small family business, Oliver Douglas decided to keep things simple and operate as a sole proprietorship. Mr. Douglas is concerned that the business has grown too much for one owner and some of the issues the business faces could affect his personal assets. What options are available for Mr. Douglas and Family First Farm? Select the business type you believe is best for Family First Farm and support your decision. Three of the Family First Farm board members entered into an agreement to purchase a new tract of land to plant orange and grapefruit trees. The board hired an independent contractor to prepare the tract of land. The independent contractor used a special chemical to fertilize the land. Because Family First Farm was family oriented, the employee’s children often played in the fields. Arnold, the five-year-old son of Doris liked to dig in the dirt and spent all day trying to dig to China out in the new field. Arnold suffered a severe allergic reaction to the chemicals. Arnold’s throat was almost completely blocked and a painful rash covered his entire body. After being resuscitated by paramedics, he was hospitalized for several days. Doris threatened to sue Family First Farm, the independent contractor, and manufacturer of the fertilizer. Can Doris recover damages from any of the parties? Discuss why or why not. Each year since 2007, the accounting firm of Goode and Thuro was contracted to prepare audited financial statements for Family First Farm. Each year until the current audit, the CPAs did not find any discrepancies. This year, Arthur Goode discovered quite a few discrepancies in Family First Farm’s records. After some investigation, Arthur discovered Eva, who handled accounts receivable for Family First Farm, had embezzled approximately $50,000 in company checks and obtained a loan using falsified records. Instead of depositing checks into the company account, Eva endorsed and cashed approximately 75 checks made payable to Family First Farm over the course of nine months. In 2009, Eva falsified the accounting records to make it look like Family First Farm had more assets than the company actually owned. Eva then induced the local bank to give Family First Farm a loan based on these falsified records. The local bank president demanded the remainder of the loan be paid in full within 90 days. Family First Farm did not have the money to pay the loan. Which party or parties will be responsible for repayment of the loan to the bank? Are the accountants liable to anyone? Can Family First Farm recover the $50,000 in forged checks from Eva or the bank? Discuss why or why not. On a recent trip to Family First Farm, a manufacturer of computer equipment promoted a new digital seed planter as “the best planter in the world!” Oliver entered into a verbal contract to purchase one of these planters for $6,500 to be delivered by March 1, 2011. The seller failed to deliver the planter and explained that its failure was caused by unanticipated technological difficulties. What rights does Family First Farm have? Is the manufacturer in breach of contract? Discuss why or why not. Because the loan is due in 90 days, Family First Farm is experiencing serious financial problems. Several creditors hinted that they might force Family First Farm into an involuntary bankruptcy if Family First Farm does not pay them. Family First Farm has been trying to prioritize their payments so that the creditors that are most important to keeping their business open are paid. What are Family First Farm’s options? Operating farm equipment can be dangerous, so Family First Farm requires all full-time and temporary employees to take random drug tests to reduce job-related injuries. In the past year, the tested employees were 89 percent Hispanic and 11 percent other ethnicities. Hispanics made up only 90 percent of the temporary work force. Family First Farm does not have any Hispanic employees on the full-time payroll. In the past year, 15 Hispanics lost their jobs after failing the drug test. Does Family First Farm’s testing policy violate any laws? Discuss why or why not. If so, do the fired Hispanics qualify for some type of compensation?

2. Assume that imports increase supply. In terms of demand, supply and consumer surplus, why would consumers prefer more imports?
3. Assume that exports increase demand. In terms of demand, supply and producer surplus, why would producers prefer more exports?
4. Adam Smith studied a pin factory and found that 1 individual doing all tasks necessary to make a pin could only make several pins per day. Specialization among tasks in the factory, however, resulted in each person doing only one thing and the number of pins produced per worker increased to thousands of pins per day. He then wrote a book called The Wealth of Nations which was about specialization and trade. Do you think citizens in closed economies (e.g., North Korea or the old Soviet Union) that do everything for themselves, including things they are not very good at or that involve resources they do not have, and do not trade or compete are better off than citizens in competitive market economies that specialize and engage in international trade?
5. What do consumer and producer surplus imply about the gains from voluntary exchange?
6. List and explain the factors that cause an increase in demand (i.e., shift the demand curve to the right). If price is or is not one of these factors, explain why.
7. List and explain the factors that can cause an increase in supply (i.e., shift the supply curve to the right)). If price is or is not one of these factors, explain why.
