Exam 1, Spring, 2015
Instructions: Construct clear and concise arguments for problems or proofs. Credit will be given for correct
steps leading to an incorrect solution or proof; little credit will be given for unsupported answers or poorly
constructed proofs. Correct use of notation and symbols as adopted in class is required. Accurately drawn
figures must accompany arguments.
In problems 1 to 3 use axioms, definitions, and theorems for incidence geometry.

Assignment 2: Supply Chain Design and Implementation
This assignment will help you develop an understanding about
the life cycle of supply chains including the models that are
aligned with it and the cost it bears. In addition, you will
develop an awareness of the elements of the supply chain that
should be monitored to ensure the desired results are being
obtained.
Scenario:
You have been asked to be a guest speaker in a high school
business class. Your task is to explain the basic concepts of
supply chain management to a group of students. The students
will take a quiz on supply chain management based on the
information in your presentation.
Instructions:
5. Develop a creative, engaging, educational handout that students
can use to prepare for the quiz. Your handout should accomplish
the following tasks.
1. Diagram and explain the life cycle of a supply chain.
2. Explain, and provide examples of, the models organizations
use to manage forecasting, planning, and inventory.
3. Examine, and provide examples of, the costs absorbed by
organizations with respect to inventory and logistics.
4. Describe how organizations use various parameters to
monitor supply chain performance and provide examples.
Your handout should be written in a clear, concise, and
organized manner, as well as demonstrate ethical scholarship in
accurate representation and attribution of sources (i.e., APA);
and display accurate spelling, grammar, and punctuation.
Write a 1–2-page handout in Word format. Apply APA
standards to citation of sources. Use the following file naming
convention: LastnameFirstInitial_M4_A2.doc.
By Wednesday, February 11, 2015, deliver your assignment to
the M4: Assignment 2 Dropbox.
