Assignment 1Assignment 11.   For this assignment, you should write at least a 2 page paper addressing the issue of housewife and homemaker compensation explored previously. 2.   You must use the following sources, but can use other sources as you see fit as long as they are academically credible (so, do not use Wikipedia): a.   the O*Net (see Webliograpy: Category: Module 1 for link), and b.   the article :The Economic Risks of Being a Housewife by Barbara R. Bergmann (AEA Papers and Proceedings, Volume 71, No. 2, May 1981). You can find the article easily through our library or using a Google search. Your paper should address issues of compensation, and should be well informed from the perspectives of job analysis, job evaluation, economic, labor force, and occupational profile.4.   You may include personnel decision making if you see fit, but don’t go too far afield addressing how you would select and retain a housewife and homemaker.5.   You have your own theories; keep them to yourself for now unless they are immediately material and relevant to the issue of compensation.6.   Your assignment should be in APA format, typed, double spaced, with 12 point Times New Roman Font, 1” margins all around, and an APA formatted title page and reference page. Avoid passive voice and plagiarism, do not use first-person language, and check your grammar and spelling prior to submissionAssignment 24 page, ApA formatAssignment: Prepare a final paper to prospective investors based on the work you have done to date in this course.

(This paper is about the Home Depot)This paper should include:An introduction stating the thesis, position, or central theme of your paper, a main body focusing on the key assignment specifications, and a conclusion concisely stating the main points of your analysis and the conclusions you reached.Document your sources and provide in-text citations Assignment 32-3 pagerM3A2 Short Paper: Action PlanIf viewing this through the Assignment tool, click the title above to go to the Submissions area.What are some real-world outcomes of government intervention in international trade?In Module 1, students learned about national differences in political economy. Through this Learning Activity, they will be able to appreciate the specific tools (policy instruments) that are used by governments in order to influence trade flows, typically in favor of their own economies.  But what is good for one economy may be bad for another economy!  Therefore, students will also come to appreciate the impact such actions have on trading partners and what these trading partners often do in retaliation!  Students will create Action Plans that assesses a specific trade barrier scenario. Imagine you are the owner of a U.S. firm that produces personal computers in Thailand and then exports them to the United States and to Europe.  You had decided to produce the personal computers in Thailand in order to take advantage of relatively low labor costs and a skilled workforce. Other possible locations you had considered were Malaysia and Hong Kong.Now, the U.S. Government has decided to impose punitive 100% ad valorem tariffs on imports of computers from Thailand.  The U.S. took this action in response to the Thai Government’s administrative trade barriers that are restricting U.S. exports to Thailand.As you read Chapter 7 in our textbook, imagine yourself as this business owner.1)  How should your firm respond?  What actions can/should you take? 2)  What does this mini “trade war” between the U.S. and Thailand tell you about the use of targeted trade barriers?Consider how governments can take many measures to promote exports from their country. They can also take steps which regulate (mostly reduce) imports into their country. While the latter are typically imposed in the form of trade barriers, these can be formal or informal. They can be general (i.e. they apply to all imports), or they can be targeted (i.e. they apply to a specific product, or to the imports from a specific country, of a combination of the two – they apply to a specific product from a specific country). Very often, targeted trade barriers lead to retaliation from the country(ies) being affected. Prepare an Action Plan wherein you:Summarize the problemIdentify the possible alternatives open to youEvaluate the pros and cons of each alternativeSelect an alternativeDefend your choiceList the steps you will take in order to implement this course of actionSummarize the anticipated outcomes (i.e. the answers to the problem)Express your opinion about the use of targeted trade barriers
