Specialty Toys, Inc. sells a variety of new and innovative children’s toys. Management learned that the preholiday season is the best time to introduce a new toy, because many families use this time to look for new ideas for December holiday gifts. When Specialty discovers a new toy with good market potential, it chooses an October market entry date.

In order to get toys into its stores by October, Specialty places one-time orders with its manufacturers in June or July of each year. Demand for children’s toys can be highly volatile. If a new toy catches on, a sense of shortage in the marketplace often increases the demand to high levels and large profits can be realized. However, new toys can also flop, leaving Specialty stuck with high levels of inventory that must be sold at reduced prices. The most important question the company faces is deciding how many units of a new toy should be purchased to meet anticipated sales demand. If too few are purchased, sales will be lost; if too many are purchased, profits will be reduced because of low prices realized in clearance sales.

For the coming season, Specialty plans to introduce a new product called Weather Teddy. This variation of a talking teddy bear is made by a company in Taiwan. When a child presses Teddy’s hand, the bear begins to talk. A built-in barometer selects one of five responses that predict the weather conditions. The responses range from “It looks to be a very nice day! Have fun” to “I think it may rain today. Don’t forget your umbrella.” Tests with the product show that, even though it is not a perfect weather predictor, its predictions are surprisingly good. Several of Specialty’s managers claimed Teddy gave predictions of the weather that were as good as those of many local television weather forecasters.

As with other products, Specialty faces the decision of how many Weather Teddy units to order for the coming holiday season. Members of the management team suggested order quantities of 15,000, 18,000, 24,000, or 28,000 units. The wide range of order quantities suggested indicates considerable disagreement concerning the market potential. The product management team asks you for an analysis of the stock-out probabilities for various order quantities, an estimate of the profit potential, and help with making an order quantity recommendation. Specialty expects to sell Weather Teddy for $24 based on a cost of $16 per unit. If inventory remains after the holiday season, Specialty will sell all surplus inventory for $5 per unit. After reviewing the sales history of similar products, Specialty’s senior sales forecaster predicted an expected demand of 20,000 units with a .95 probability that demand would be between 10,000 units and 30,000 units.

Managerial Report

Prepare a managerial report that addresses the following issues and recommends an order quantity for the Weather Teddy product.

Use the sales forecaster’s prediction to describe a normal probability distribution that can be used to approximate the demand distribution. Sketch the distribution and show its mean and standard deviation.

Compute the probability of a stock-out for the order quantities suggested by members of the management team.

Compute the projected profit for the order quantities suggested by the management team under three scenarios: worst case in which sales = 10,000 units, most likely case in which sales = 20,000 units, and best case in which sales = 30,000 units.

One of Specialty’s managers felt that the profit potential was so great that the order quantity should have a 70% chance of meeting demand and only a 30% chance of any stock-outs. What quantity would be ordered under this policy, and what is the projected profit under the three sales scenarios?

Provide your own recommendation for an order quantity and note the associated profit projections. Provide a rationale for your recommendation.

The sales forecaster’s prediction for Specialty Toys, Inc can be used for the purposes of describing the a normal probability distribution to approximate demand distribution as follows :

The goal of this is to analyze the list of jobs provided and compile the best job description for each position. The idea is not to be extensive and add fluff but to get to the most critical aspects of the position and the certifications, degrees, etc., needed to be qualified. To be clear, every job does not require a degree or certificate. Still, the ones that do that would need to be included (ex: Web Developer would need Python, C++, Linux, and PHP to be qualified for the developer position you are doing below). Another example would be (Graphic Designer- Must be able to render transparent files for merchandise and provide several different file formats (JPG, AI, PSD, etc.). The only thing that will be universal in every job description is that they need to have at least one year of experience in whichever field.

Please use the smallest font possible (ex. size 9). This is not a resume. It is not a paper, but the information does need to be accurate. I need job descriptions appropriately done to add to a document—no need for formal citing. I put several sources because that is what this calls for; there is still no need for proper citing. And you don’t have to use the total number of sources. Instead, I need a simple list of everywhere you DID collect the information. So, when you go to the website, copy and paste the page info into the document right before/after the data YOU USE. No formatting is necessary.

Gloria Smart is a 55-year-old female who presents to your office today for regular gyn care. You read her medical history and note she received a cardiac stent at age 50, has mild hypertension, and is on Zocor, Plavix, and lisinopril. Surgical history is remarkable for tonsils as a child and bunion surgery. She works full time, by choice, because it “makes me feel young.” She is up to date with colonoscopies. Gyn history normal pap history, last DXA within normal limits, normal mammogram. BMI is 26. First menses age 14 and menopause age 52. She works out at her local gym 5 days a week. Social history is negative for tobacco and recreational drugs. She has an occasional glass of wine. She has never married and has been with her current partner for 2 years and will be getting married in 2 months. She has never been pregnant, and her partner has never had a child. Gloria and her fiancé are seeking guidance as they are interested in having a child. After conferring with an infertility specialist, the couple becomes successful in getting pregnant. However, Gloria’s blood pressure becomes uncontrolled and presents back to the office for evaluation.

Differential Diagnosis

The differential diagnosis for Gloria would be High Risk Pregnancy of the Elderly Mother Primigravida. This differential diagnosis was chosen based upon the fact that her age is elevated at 55 years old, she has already gone through menopause, she has significant cardiovascular disease, and has a history of hypertension which has been proven to put both the mother and baby at risk (Christenbery, 2017).

Treatment Plan

To properly manage and treat the patient, the provider would look at multiple factors that place her in high risk such as obesity. Having a BMI of 26 is significant in that she is already 20% overweight. Also, she is on Zocor, which is a statin that is contraindicated in pregnancy, she had a cardiac stent at the age of 50, and she is on Lisinopril, an ACE inhibitor, which is also contraindicated in pregnancy, especially the second and third trimesters, as they can cause difficulties for the baby (Schuiling & Likis, 2020). As Gloria has hypertension, a heart healthy diet should be started immediately inclusive of a low sodium restriction with the goal to keep her BP controlled and to slowly bring her weight to the appropriate range (Buttaro et al., 2017). As for the medications, the statin should be stopped. The only medications currently acceptable during pregnancy are bile acid sequestrants (Arcangelo et al., 2017). The ACE Inhibitor may be replaced with a calcium channel blocker and the Plavix may be replaced with a low molecular weight heparin such as Lovenox (Podymow & August, 2008).

Evidence Based Research

Current evidence-based research shows that Hypertension is the leading cause of death and is a major cause of disability in the world (Butalia et al., 2018). The research shows that the prevalence of hypertension has remained among adults and relatively stable in Canada and that the measures to treat and control remain high.

Resources for Best Practice

Best practice guidelines for management of hypertension includes the utilization of blood pressure trackers (Ball RN DrPH CPNP, Jane W. et al., 2014). These simple devices, whether digital or paper based can be utilized to manage and track BP readings throughout the day and shared with collaborating physicians.

Issues

Ethical concerns for Gloria and her fiancé consist of the fact that Gloria is advanced in age and has never been a parent before and is now considering being a parent. Ethically the concern is whether it is correct to assist in Glorias quest to have a baby even though she has already been through menopause and has significant cardiovascular issues which may cause harm or death to her and/or her child.

A psychological issue is whether to assist Gloria and risk the possibility of her developing depression when she is informed of all the risks that could potentially happen to her based upon her age and cardiovascular status. Informing her of the risk may inhibit further treatment, trust, and health.

A physical issue that may develop is that Gloria works full time, and that work makes her happy. With her advanced age and the reality of an illness such as uncontrolled hypertension being plausible, this will possibly ensure that bedrest will happen which may lead to depression and inability to trust.

Financial issues may arise causing difficulties during the pregnancy. IVF, in itself, is very expensive as is the increase in medical provider attention.
