Case Study 1

Blanche, Rose and Dorothy formed a partnership, Retirement Living, to provide temporary housing for elderly people in the Miami area. One of the temporary residents set fire to the house, which resulted in the loss of the entire building and contents. One of the residents, Sophia, sued Retirement Living and obtained a judgment of $ 50,000 against it, but the partnership could not pay the judgment.

What are Sophia’s options if the Retirement Living partnership cannot pay the $50,000?

Will Sophia win if she tries to collect the entire debt from Blanche?

What are Blanche’s options if Sophia sues her for the entire debt?

Analyze the case studies, respond to each of the three questions, and support your responses with the applicable law and/or text materials.

Case Study 3

The Conners family operates a small transportation service for the elderly to take them to doctor’s appointments, grocery shopping and other errands. The three (3) adult members of the Conners family, Dan, Roseanne and Jackie, would like to become a corporation and obtain limited liability; however, taxation at the corporate level would be very costly for them. If possible, Roseanne would rather be taxed as a partnership. Dan is worried about the additional paperwork and meetings that incorporation would surely bring. Jackie does not want a large board of directors to be formed. Jackie fears that the board would somehow detract from the family goals and orientation the business has always enjoyed. In light of these concerns, is there a corporate form or other type of business organization that would better suit the Conners family? Explain the options, select the best option for the Conners and justify your selection with the applicable law and/or text materials.

Support responses with examples, the law, and/or text materials, and use APA formatting in the paper.

By Wednesday, February 3, 2016, using the textbook and Argosy Online Library, write a 750-word paper using APA standards that includes discussion of the following:

Describe an example of a television program that you believe clearly displays social deviance, and explain why you specifically selected it.
In this television program, how are people “labeled” as socially deviating from the expected social norms, and who does this labeling?
Analyze the deviance, using terms such as primary deviance, secondary deviance, retrospective labeling, and stigma.
Apply Durkheim’s four functions of deviance to the deviant actions in the television program. What purpose(s) does the deviance play?

Recycling, Reducing, and Reusing

[Pin It]

In the Working Ahead section in Modules 1, 2, and 3, you were informed to collect items to be recycled and log a journal of these items. You were also instructed to select either Module 2 or Module 3 to collect these items.

Your assignment in this module is to submit your weeklong Recycling Journal, along with an analysis of your recycling efforts and an examination of the recycling process.

Be sure to examine what you have recycled in your chosen week and estimate how many grocery sacks of material you recycled—try to estimate the size. Results showing who recycled the most material will be posted by your facilitator in Module 5.

For this assignment, complete the following:

Part 1

Review your Recycling Journal for the week you selected. Write a report that covers the next two parts of this assignment.

Part 2

Based on what you identified as recyclable in one week and using this data, estimate how much garbage your entire locality or city could prevent sending to the landfill. Include the following:

What is the total population of your community? You may use reliable Internet resources to identify this information.
If everyone in your community recycled as much trash as you did for one week, how much garbage could your area recycle? To calculate this number, you can use your number and multiply it by the number of people in your community.
How much trash could your community save in a year? To calculate this number, multiply the weekly estimate for your community by the number of weeks in a year.
Do you think your community recycles enough? How can the US Government place more importance on recycling?
