Over the last couple of weeks, we have read about accounting and decision making. We are going to apply these concepts to your idea from week 2. Provide a cost/benefit analysis for your idea. Make sure to mention any sunk or opportunity costs involved in the implementation of this program as well as the long-term increase in projected profitability. You are permitted to use fictional numbers as far as costs go, but you should provide research to support any opportunity costs or projected profitability. You can find industry averages for various program costs and projected benefits.

I need help with a Porter's Five Forces analysis on Tesla.

In terms of Bargaining Power of Suppliers, I need to provide information from research and draw/extrapolate a conclusion in terms of why that force is moderate and link the result to whether it presents a threat or opportunity to the sub-industry and then to Tesla’s profitability.

I need to analyze two supplier groups to make my conclusion.

What types of information is included to evaluate the force?

Case Study Activity 2

This is a Problem-Solving Application. Read the case and undertake the ensuing activities.

Ababio Center Addresses Employee-Related Issues

Ababio Center, a social services agency in Adum, Kumasi, provides help to youth and low-income families. The center is funded by Local government, state and local agencies, together with insurers and private donors. The center’s rate of employee turnover recently grew from 41 percent to 72 percent over three years. This compares to national turnover rates between 50 and 60 percent for community health facilities. Ababio also found that employee motivation and engagement declined during the period, as did the quality of service provided. Nana Oye Odame, the HR director for the center, was charged with examining turnover, so she put together a team to examine its causes. The team looked at earlier job satisfaction surveys and exit interviews and identified the following themes:

• People quit because of “demanding work, work/life balance issues relating to night and weekend work, low salaries, on-call responsibilities without additional compensation for certain programs,”

• poor career development opportunities, and lack of support for managers.

Odame did not know how to eliminate these potential causes of turnover. She decided to ask the task force to interview managers from other social service agencies in Kumasi to discover how they were handling similar organizational issues.

Apply the 3-Step Problem-Solving Approach Step 1: Define the problem in this case.

Step 2: Identify the causes. What concepts or theories of OB help to explain the reasons people are quitting?

Step 3: Make your recommendations to resolve the problem.
