- Check out a documentary on the working conditions at Google, Apple, or Walmart. (Many business documentaries are available on Netflix, and there may be more in your school library or online.) What's the company's approach to human resources? The way customers and vendors are handled. Do people get different treatment based on where they live or their social status? What advantages do they have? Which benefits do you value the most, and why? Summarise the material in one or two pages, with appropriate citations.arrow_forwardAnswer ALL questions based on the following Case Study Stanley manages an import company, which employs over 50 people with a range of imported kitchenware. These products have a very low profit margin and, as a result, Stanley makes his profits on the volume of products sold. His customer base is comprised of large retail outlets (approximately 75% of his product sales) and the more traditional family-owned hardware stores (the remaining 25%). He does not sell directly to the public. Stanley's sales have consistently increased by an average of 15% over each of the last 4 years since 2022, including during the recent pandemic. This is mainly because he can still offer his imported products at competitive prices. However, his actual profit has not increased correspondingly. The company's information systems is manual since Stanley took the company over from his father, almost nine years ago. These legacy systems were originally developed in the early nineties and were written for his…arrow_forwardAs the head buyer for a major supermarket chain, you are constantly being asked by manufacturers and distributors to stock their new products. More than 50 new items are introduced each week. Many times, these products are launched with national advertising campaigns and special promotional allowance to retailers. To add new products, the amount of shelf space allocated to existing products must be reduced or items must be eliminated together. Develop a MIS report that you can use to estimate the change in profits from adding or deleting items from an inventory. Your analysis should include input such as estimated weekly sales in units, shelf space allocated to stock items, total cost per unit, and sales per unit. Your analysis should calculate total annual profit by items and then sort the rows in descending order based on total annual profit.arrow_forward
