The operating cycle is the duration of the period from the moment of receipt of raw materials and materials to the enterprise until the receipt of revenue from the products sold – goods, works, services. The operating cycle shows when the company turns raw materials into revenue from the sale of products. It allows determining the position of an enterprise in the industry, the change in its solvency, and financial status. The calculation is based on the cost of production, as well as accounts receivable and inventory. The reduction of the operating cycle indicates a decrease in the company’s profit. The cash cycle characterizes the time in days that passes from the moment of payment for raw materials and materials to the receipt of payment for the products sold. This is the period during which the funds are in the form of working capital. Jalal and Khaksari (2019) state that the cash cycle indicator is widely used by companies to understand and manage their short-term financial needs. The duration of the cash cycle determines the company’s need for working capital. An increase in the cash cycle indicates that the company has problems with the turnover of goods or with the return of receivables. A financial manager needs to understand how monetary and operational cycles affect business processes because any enterprise needs money. It provides an opportunity to develop products or employees and thereby influence the profitability and success of the company as a whole. The duration of the operating cycle directly affects the profit – the shorter it is, the higher the profit. The money cycle should be as fast as possible, so the company’s owner will have to attract fewer additional funds. Reference Jalal, A., & Khaksari, S. (2019). Cash cycle: A cross‐country analysis.

When acquiring an asset, an organization needs to be keen on the likely benefits that will accrue from the transition. In the case of Emirates buying new Airbus A350XWB, the management needs to start with a cost-benefit analysis to determine whether the purchase will be beneficial to the company in short or long term. The cost of the asset amounts to billions of dollars thus the management needs to be careful that the large outflow of funds will not affect the business negatively. The following are important elements that the company needs to consider when making the purchase. Futuristic effects of the airbus Emirate management anticipates an increased traffic of passengers and goods in its destinations; the increase is a futuristic business that the company should tap into. By acquiring the new plane, the company will be preparing to enjoy large business in the future. The move then is a strategic planning move where the company will benefit economies of scale and better services to its customers. The contact with Airbus seems to suggest that Emirates will be the company launching the plane; with this the deal is expected to be favorable to Emirates. When buying an asset, the buyer needs to consider the buying cost, in the event that the cost can be lowed, then it’s advisable to get such a deal. One opportunity that Emirates Airline is having is globalisation; the world is becoming a global village; for this, transport and communication networks are having an increased demand. The company being a player in the industry is likely to enjoy high demand of its services so, when strategic decisions and alliances are made, then the company can tap in the market effectively. Another opportunity that faces the company is an increase in international trade. Demand for cargo and passenger transport is on the rise, thus the acquisition of the new Airbus A350XWB will be of benefit to the company. As a cost management policy Other than the new Airbus A350XWB being larger in capacity, the plane is expected to be fuel efficiency and accustomed to the needs of the customers. The efficiency of the plane is likely to work for the benefit of the company; with the new plane, Emirates will be able to offer high quality services at lower prices. The airline industry is facing challenges coping with increasing fuel costs, with the new asset; the company will offer quality and still maintain operational costs as low as possible. For customer service and products/services differentiation The contract allowed Emirates to negotiate with Airbus regarding the kind of plane that the company would like to have; the nature of the contract thus allows for customization of the plane to suit the needs of Emirates. The plane will bring the
Introduction   * The Soft drinks industry has grown due to entrances of new players in the industry.   * Coca Cola and PepsiCo are the leaders in soft drinks market.   * Coca Cola’s headquarter is in Georgia and it operates over 200 companies world wide.   * PepsiCo manufactures carbonated drinks and has numerous brands of non-alcoholic soft drinks across the globe. The soft drinks industry has grown immensely over the years as different industry players struggle to achieve market leadership and control over their competitors. The Coca Cola Company and PepsiCo are notably the global industry leaders as far as soft drinks are concerned. From high annual profits to huge expenditures in marketing activities and popular brands, Coca Cola and PepsiCo are undoubtedly the unbeatable leaders and players in this industry throughout the world. In their operations and business activities, nevertheless, the two companies have adopted different strategies to strengthen their market positions and activities. Coca Cola is a multinational soft drink producing company headquartered in Georgia Atlanta (Dost, 2008). Presently, the company operates in 200 countries. Basically, the company manufactures highly concentrated syrup which is sold to various bottlers in different nations (Isdell, 2011). On the other hand, Pepsi is a renowned manufacturer of a carbonated drink popularly known as Pepsi. The drink changed names to Pepsi Cola and later Pepsi during the great depression era. Currently, the company is operating in different nations with multiple brands of non-alcoholic soft drinks forming a list of widening products (Blanding, 2010). Background Information about Coca Cola   * In 1886, John Pemberton mixed cola nut with coca leaf to get the modern Coca Cola ingredients.   * Initially, the ingredients comprised of fruit syrup and water, but later they replaced water with carbonated water.   * At the start, the company’s sales reached $50, which was less than $75 used to manufacture the drink.   * In 1894, Biedenharn became the first to bottle Coca Cola products.   * From 1905, the company embarked on advertisement and brand differentiation to mitigate competition .   * In 1916, the company opened overseas branches in Cuba, France, and Puerto Rico.   * World War II helped Coca Cola Company to expand into international market.   * In 1978, China allowed the company’s products into its local market.   * In 1985, Goizueta changed the Coca Cola taste for the first time. Pharmacist John Pemberton in Atlanta, Georgia, accidentally formed Coca Cola in 1886 in his shop as he experimented on formulating a tonic that could cure headaches (Bodden, 2009). The resultant fruit s
Introduction The majority of the people in the society is not acquainted with the relevant information about their sleeping patterns. Sleep is one of the most important things for human beings because it has been associated with the effective development of cognitive and emotional health. Sleep deprivation has been studied by many scientists in the past to establish its effect on mental alertness and emotional configuration. Sleep deprivation is defined as a lack of sleep or sleeping for fewer hours than recommended. Sleep deprivation is a common phenomenon among people in stressing careers, children with various disorders, and people with different illnesses. Not getting enough sleep affects all people regardless of their age; hence, its effects should be understood by psychologists across the world. There have been numerous studies conducted by various researchers in the past to develop an understanding of the negative effects of sleep deprivation on people. The studies are yet to provide conclusive evidence of the relationship between sleep deprivation and emotional behavior. This report highlights a study that was conducted to create a correlation between sleep deprivation and specific emotions. The findings of the study will be instrumental in helping psychologists around the world to diagnose different emotional behaviors in people based on their sleeping patterns. Background According to Laurent (1999), there is a high correlation between self-report measurements of depression and anxiety in patients. This high correlation makes it difficult for psychologists to distinguish between the two disorders in most patients. The PANAS instrument was developed to help in attaining accuracy in the measurement of depression and anxiety (Laurent et al., 1999). The study highlighted by Laurent (1999) was conducted to develop an effective measure of anxiety and depression in children using the PANAS instrument. The results indicated that the PANAS-C tool had a valid discriminatory factor in differentiating anxiety and depression. According to Watson and Clark (1988), the Positive Affect (PA) indicates the feelings of enthusiasm, being active, and alertness. The Negative Affect (NA) is a dimension that highlights distress, anger, fear, and nervousness, among many other unpleasant emotions. It is possible to distinguish between PA and NA through the PANAS instrument and determine the nature of the psychological disorder in a patient. The PANAS instrument can be used to evaluate the effects of sleep deprivation in different people because it highlights some of the emotional behaviors associated with anxiety and depression. It is also possible for psychologists to determine whether sleep deprivation causes anxiety or depression (Watson, Clark & Tellegen, 1988). It is important to identify the emotional behaviors a
Abstract All public pools and spas owners are obliged to get the special permission to keep the pool operating. A public pool or spa is a pool “functioning for the use of the public with or without fee, or for the use of the members and guests of a private club”. This entails special capacities placed at a hotel, motel, inn, apartment complex, homeowners association, or any uptown location other than a solitary family residence. (Emanuel, 1998). Swimming pools can be of essential hazard because of water-transmitted infections which can be caught up from other visitors of the pool. Consequently, usual and general testing of the pool water and necessary infrastructure is performed by especially skilled Environmental Health Officer at regular periods. A sets code is chased which has been adjusted by the South Australian Health Commission. Concentration of chlorine in the water is stated using a Hach ManVer2 Hardness indicator. pH is measured using Hach Buffer Solution Hardness 1. Hach Cyanuric acid indication tablets are applied to define the measure of cyanuric acid in the water. Moreover if any grumbles are got, they must be researched and studied. The research and observation was accomplished lately because of the complaint and the outcomes revealed that the pool water and the necessary equipment and infrastructure in accordance with the stated by the South Australian Health Commission criteria. (Bachelor of Environmental Health, 2007). Introduction In accordance with the Public and Environmental Health Directives 2006, a pool possessor or manager has a compulsion to the public to keep the san
Introduction Frege’s puzzle about identity is a problem presented by the semantics of singular terms. The problem arises when a given object or phenomenon is attributed to more than one singular term. While the terms are not necessarily synonymous, they can be arranged in statements that presuppose their synonymous nature. The most common example is Hesperus and Phosphorus, two names of stars used by the ancients (“Gottlob Frege”). While the definitions are different, the available astronomical data suggests that they represent the same object. In other words, the similarity between the terms cannot be established based on reflection alone (since the information does not appear to be non-trivial) and requires additional empirical evidence (e.g. astronomic observations). Main body As a solution to the problem, Frege suggested that definitions have two levels of meaning. The first is a reference – an apparent characteristic of an object. The second is since – the way of the presentation of an object, also known as the mode of presentation. In the example of Venus, the terms Hesperus and Phosphorus have the same reference since they refer to the same object but bear different senses since they involve different characteristics of an object (e.g. the time of the appearance in the sky). Conclusion Frege’s solution to the puzzle contains several controversial points. First, it relies on the uniformity of both reference and sense. However, since the meaning of some terms is a contingent truth, the latter can differ depending on the individual who uses them. Next, certain concepts that are analytic according to Frege’s definition do not require empirical inquiry and are considered a priori knowledge. Finally, some statements exist that cannot be conclusively defined as either analytic or a priori due to their different senses.

Introduction Nontraditional healthcare practices offer a dynamic overview regarding the prominent elements to consider when treating a patient. On the one hand, the methods contradict the modern approaches utilized in the field of medicine. On the other hand, an integration of both ideologies renders a proficient solution to the problem of effective recovery from different diseases. An excellent example is the conventional strategy by Native Americans to focus on spirituality as the core of healing. It is important to assess the dynamic methodologies in therapy with the aim of determining the optimal guideline for doctors and nurses. The primary role of the medical practitioners entails the utilization of the efficient theoretical frameworks to establish highly graded care for the sick. A comparison of the nontraditional healthcare practices across different cultures, that is, Native Americans, Muslims, and Hinduism fosters an understanding of the significance of spirituality and body mechanism spectral views during medication. Nontraditional Healthcare Practices Nontraditional healthcare practices encompass the alternative methods of treatment apart from the utilization of medicine for recovery. It is a strategy mainly used by individuals believing in the body’s spiritual healing. In this case, different cultures exploit distinctive aspects in the process such as acupuncture and homeotherapy. These approaches focus on triggering the body’s immune system to respond to the issue in the body such as infertility. This study seeks to assess the substitute curative ideologies among the Native Americans, Muslims, and Hinduism. Native Americans One of the American communities that mainly practices its traditional and cultural constructs is the Native Americans. An excellent example is the utilization of nontraditional healthcare approaches in the treatment of illnesses (Vemireddy, 2020). The customs stipulate that the healing properties on a body regard the use of spiritual being. In this case, it is crucial to focus on the psychic state of an individual than the me
The Great Awakenings are definitive for American history and the understanding of the modern world. These religious revivals happened periodically from the first emergence of Europeans on the territory. McLoughlin (1980, xiii) defines them as “periods of cultural revitalization… during which time a profound reorientation in beliefs and values takes place.” While the cultural core of the US has been the belief that God chose Americans, it was the panacea during social and economic crises and strengthened after every Awakening. The cultural core of the United States was laid by the Puritan people. The English population that traveled to Northern America through the ocean and consequently composed the majority of the future state professed Puritanism (McLoughlin 1980). According to Hall (2019), this Christian movement emerged in the Age of Discoveries and was distinct from existing Anglicanism by emphasizing God’s laws and freedom from the state and church. In addition, the Puritans valued order, rationality and saw themselves as the newly chosen people. Religion determined the customs and mindset of these individuals; thus, the English settlers of America produced the cultural core of the nation. As McLoughlin (1980, 25) explicitly puts it, Puritanism delivered to the Americans a “sense of being a differently constituted people, covenanted with God on a special errand into the wilderness.” Thus, the North American cultural core comprises selectedness, reason, practicality, and rigid belief in law and freedom. The rapid economic growth in the United States and stable societal structure provided the First Great Awakening that reserved the nation’s cultural core. The cheapness of land and the entrepreneurial spirit of the Americans caused the prosperity of the colony in the middle of the 18th century (McLoughlin 1980, 97). As the population grew, more people felt the need to become wealthy, while the piousness reduced. The intellectuals under the impact of the Enlightenment discontinued visiting the church fragmented into numerous movements. In response to this, preachers produced sermons and new postulates: God’s will is for all people, and everyone should practice religion at least personally. Subsequently, faith was somewhat renovated, although the cultural core remained the same. As a result, Americans removed the English imperial power and established their own rule to resist being not loyal to the authorities (McLoughlin 1980). Therefore, the devotedness to God and legislative zeal were endangered but preserved during the Revival. The Second Great Awakening was determined by political shifts, too, reforming the traditional societal norms. The Revolution demonstrated the abundance of perspectives of the newly born Republic and strengthened the belief in God’s favor of Americans. At the end of the 18th century, the existence of different views on the governmental rule of the United States resulted in doubt in the future of the American nation (McLoughlin 1980, 98). The unity of the state was threatened, and the cultural core in the form of belief in God’s approval of the people. However, re
