    Universal Circuit Inc Summary

    Due to significant appreciation of the U.S dollar against the Irish punt in recent years, it has come to our attention that the profit margins of our Irish operation are extremely sensitive to fluctuations in the value of the U.S dollar. With already high interest rates, steadying rates of inflation, and flat economic growth in the United States, it appears that the time has come to worry about the possibility of a large devaluation of the dollar. Such depreciation could have the effect of wiping out the existing benefit of lower Irish operating costs relative to our American operations, which we have come to enjoy in recent years due to the dollars large increase in value. One solution to this looming problem is to allow the controller of our Irish subsidiary to buy the punt forward, thereby eliminating the downside risk of any dollar depreciation. However, this option completely negates the fact that there is currently a hedge already in place – our Irish operations managers have every incentive to cut operating costs given a large downward swing in the dollar.…

    Food Inc Research Paper

    The growth of food and the fast food industry has increased tremendously since the 1950s. “In the 1970’s, the top five beef packers controlled 25% of the market. Today, stunningly, these beef packers control more than 80% of the market.” (Food Inc. Quote) These handful of corporations have goals to produce large sums of food at minimum inputs resulting in large amounts of profit, which allows for market power within these top companies. Food Inc. shows how these companies have grown so big that the health and safety of the workers and food have been overlooked by the company itself and the government which as a result has a negative outcome of consequences. The advancements in technology, machinery, and science have increased…

    Food Inc Research Paper

    As meat products become increasingly available to the American general public, many people are questioning if it’s ethical to harvest animals for meat consumption. For a long time, this has been a debatable topic. Many animal advocates claim that mass production of meat has become a cruel practice to slaughter many domesticated animals under harsh conditions. As a result, people on the right side of the spectrum promote vegetarianism as a way to protect livestock from being mass slaughtered. Even though it can’t be denied that meat production overtime has become harsh toward livestock, eating meat is ethical because humans need it as an essential food source to live. However, under the circumstance that the livestock live joyful and free lives…
