1. Individual Assignment - Porter 5 Forces.
Your mission is to analyse the Australian car manufacturing industry by performing a 5 forces analysis and a life cycle analysis. You may examine other industries if agreed to by your lecturer.
You should find a comprehensive answer to the question 'why is the Australian Car Manufacturing Industry closing down'.
You should bring ideas from at least two journal articles to the discussion in the main body of the report.
All ideas in the report must be referenced using Harvard Referencing.
In the first half of the report you introduce ideas, then, in the second half of the report you will discuss and evaluate these ideas to identify what is most relevant and significant.
This is a short report, so fill it with ideas and discussion.
Descriptive material has negligible value and should be avoided. We are seeking analysis, discussion and recommendation, enriched by ideas found in journal articles.
In business you will be expected to produce short well-argued reports. This is your opportunity to both develop and demonstrate that skill.

Design method to select the most economical beam section
: A simply supported steel beam carries a factored concentrated load of 25 kips at the center of its 36-ft span. The beam has lateral support at the center of the span and at both ends (Lb = 18 ft). Use the AISC design

The results of the marketing research
: The results of the marketing research

Check the shear resistance of this beam
: A W14x34 section is used as a simply supported beam over a span of 20 ft. The beam is loaded with a concentrated live load of 10 kips at the center of its span, in addition to its own weight.

Suggest a hen managentment strategy that will maximize
: A polutry farm owns 100 laying hens. Each week a hen can either lay 12 eggs or hatch 4 eggs, but not both. At the end of the four-week period all eggs and chicks will be sold: an egg will bring 10 cents, and a chick will bring 60 cents.

Determine the lifetime risk of a resident
: Consider a small town in the Phillippines, where the average weight of people is 55 kg, and the average lifespan is 60 years. The people here eat lots of fish due to abundant availability from the local river.

Determine the risk to the workers who work 8 hours/day
: The natural air flow rate to this industrial shade structure is 90 m3/hour. Determine the risk to the workers who work 8 hours/day, 50 weeks/year for 30 years. Assume workers are 75 kg and live for 70 years.

Can you find bod10 from this test
: During a BOD test, 2 mL of waste water having a DO of 0 was mixed with 298 mL of dilution water having a DO of 8.9 mg/L. After 5 days and 20 days, it was noted that the DO of the test bottle was 4.0 and 2.5 respectively,

Make a preliminary estimate of the length and elevation
: A 5-ha residential development with 0.4-ha lots is to be drained such that the first 25mm of runoff is retained onsite and the postdevelopment peak discharge rate from the site is not to exceed 1m^3/s for thje 25-year 1-d rain event. The natural soil..
