Hello, I am looking for someone to write an article on Do corporations have a social responsibility beyond just obeying the law. It needs to be at least 500 words. Do corporations have a social responsibility beyond just obeying the law? To understand the basic definition of a corporation, one must understand its main objective. Every corporation, excluding a Club or Non-Profit Corporations, has a sole objective, i.e. making a profit. This is the basic foundation of every business and corporation that is created in the first place. The profit is basically the difference between the revenue that the corporation generated and the cost that it incurs. However, corporations do have to operate according to the law. For example every corporation pays taxes on its ‘sky high’ profits but is that the only thing a corporation should do for the betterment of society? Obeying the law includes several other things including labor rights, minimum wages, working conditions and several consume rights including misleading advertisement. “If ethics are poor at the top that behavior is copied down through the organization” quoted Mr Robert Noyce, the inventor of the silicon chip (Butler, 2003).

Business ethics is one of the terms that many might have heard. Not many businesses run ethically but some businesses are adapting the ethical strategies for giving something back to the society. Anita Roddick was one of the most ethical founders of the Body Shop and quoted “Being good is good business” in 1942. Ethics mainly refers to what is happening inside the business environment. It is basically the rights and wrongs that a business does and the decisions that it makes. Unethical decisions might benefit the business but are considered bad for the society and ethical decisions might be bad for the business but good for the society. This is the entire foundation that a business works on. Social responsibility is related with business ethics (PSO, 2011). It basically is the action of a business that affects the society directly and indirectly. There are several cases where a corporation is not socially responsible and it leads to the 3rd party being affected in a negative way.

There are several cases where a business has to be ethical and socially responsible. Why a business goes for an unethical practice is because of the fact that the action gets the business a higher return. “For every complex problem, there is a simple solution that is wrong” said Mr. George Bernard Shaw, the famous Irish poet. Thinking about a society and taking desirable actions for the 3rd party usually results in a less return or a loss to the corporation (Newton, 2005 p. 10). One of these actions is pollution and dumping the waste in the sea. This is one of the most common examples. A manufacturing entity usually looks for cheaper ways for producing. Most of these factories dump the wastage including harmful chemicals in the sea which effects wild life and some of these companies use cheaper equipment that results in toxic wastage and harmful smoke. These corporations do have an option to switch to more advanced equipment but most of them simply refuse to do so because of the investment (Stewart, 2011). Another action is the exploitation of labor. Some corporations offer very poor working conditions to the laborers which can be dangerous to their well-being. Child labor is another action that the NGOs and governments are trying to stop. Companies like Nike and Apple have hugely benefited from child labor. One of the most unethical practices is the exploitation of the consumers and customers. These people are the money makers for the corporation and still they are being exploited. Violating consumer rights using misleading advertisement and false claiming of the product benefits are a part of exploiting the consumer and tricking them into buying the product (Stanlake, 1980).

Businesses do operate under the basic law but it is not enough for the society. Corporations like monopolies have the power to take full advantage of the consumers. However, this is wrong and every corporation needs to adapt CSR (Corporate Social Responsibility).

Review the following case scenario to inform the assignment that follows:

Charlie is a fifth grader who receives special education services for a learning disability. He is on grade level in math and two years below grade level in reading. He receives services in a resource setting for one hour each day. Charlie has no history of behavior problems.

Recently, Charlie was caught stealing software from the computer lab at his school. His teacher referred him to the assistant principal who issued a three-day suspension and required him to return the stolen materials.

The day of the incident, when Charlie returned to the classroom to gather his belongings, he confronted his teacher. He called her names, threatened to come back to school with a knife to “cut her,” and pretended to swing his fists toward her. Charlie’s teacher called the principal, who, in accordance with the student code of conduct at the school, issued an additional 10-day suspension for Charlie, bringing his total days of suspension to 13.

Note. Adapted from Key issues in discipline (Module 19). Building the legacy: IDEA 2004 training curriculum, by R. Bradley, R., 2007, Washington, DC: National Dissemination Center for Children with Disabilities.

In a 750-1,000 word essay, address the questions that follow. Support your answers with references to specific sections of IDEA where applicable.

  1. What will the special education teacher need to do next because of Charlie’s 13-day suspension?
  2. Who will need to be contacted regarding Charlie’s suspension?
  3. What services, if any, need to be provided to Charlie during his removal to an interim alternative educational setting (IAES)? Who are the stakeholders involved in this discussion?

Assume a manifestation determination review is held for Charlie, and it is determined that his behavior was not a manifestation of his disability.

  1. What disciplinary actions are permissible?
  2. What, if any, services will be provided to Charlie for the duration of the disciplinary action?
  3. What happens if Charlie’s parents appeal the manifestation determination?

Support your findings with a 2-3 scholarly resources in addition to IDEA.

Hi, I need help with essay on Problem set: Exchange rates and open-economy macroeconomics. Paper must be at least 500 words. Please, no plagiarized work!

As such what can be expected is “a temporary increase in fiscal expansion and rise in output thereby resulting into currency appreciation.”3 But when it is a permanent tariff, initially one can expect an aggressive movement in the market resulting into employment. However, in the long- run, “output returns to its initial level and all money prices rise in proportion to the increase in money supply.“

2. Suppose there is a permanent fall in private aggregate demand for a country’s output (a downward shift of the entire demand schedule). What is the effect in the output? What government policy response would you recommend?

If there is a permanent fall in private aggregate demand for a country’s output, there will be an increase in the supply of the output thereby lowering the price of the goods and services which posits a big problem to investors and the government. For such a scenario will possibly lead to bankruptcy of industries resulting into unemployment, which is what we, are all avoiding. In a situation like this, I think what the government should do is to increase government spending in order to prop up the economy. But this should be only temporary until an equilibrium has been established since we do not want to have a “crowding out” to happen to the country’s output for that may further aggravate the permanent fall in aggregate demand for a country’s output. At the same time, I will impose import tariffs in order to protect the domestic economy. It is indeed protectionism but I honestly think that such a scenario demands an aggressive response from the government.

Current account balance (CA) is “the demand for the country’s exports less that country’s own demand for imports is determined by two main factors: the domestic currency’s real exchange rate against foreign currency and domestic disposable

In this unit, you will be revising your Unit V Illustration Essay, but you will also be looking forward to the Unit VII submission of your Expository Essay. Choosing a topic can be a great challenge to students at times because they want to choose a topic that is reasonable and one that is interesting to them. However, some students struggle with choosing a topic because there are so many possibilities. In the lessons for this unit, we discussed some different ways that you can come up with a short list of possible topics, including talking to those around you, observing important issues, reflecting on issues that are important to you, and thinking about topics in relation to disciplinary categories.After considering some of these generative methods, what topics have you come up with? Describe them, along with giving a short explanation of how you came to your topics. You might choose just one topic and share your process. If you do not have a topic(s) in mind, then describe some general areas of interest or where you think you might want to find a topic. Sometimes just describing these vague thoughts can be very productive for you and others!
