A working knowledge of Excel is a crucial skill for accountants. This assignment aims to assess the student’s ability to create spreadsheets. Students will be using raw data and summarising them in a user-friendly format to aid decision making. Students will need to recommend additional excel-based analysis that facilitates business decision making. Submission Instructions: Students need to submit their Excel Workbook which includes the analysis and recommendation sheet. The file should be provided in the following format: Student ID_ Student Name_ ACCT6001 Assessment 3.xlxs Example: 0009989t_Adam Smith_ACCT6001 Assessment 3.xlxs Eljay School A large Australian School has recently opened an online education division called Eljay. The school provides online education services to students from around the world. In an effort to improve the services offered to students, a job management system was developed to improve the responses provided to student queries. At the end of every week, a manager from the administration team archives an excel file that contains data about student queries for that week. The manager of the administration team believes that the data within this spreadsheet would be valuable for business decision making. However, employees within the team lack the technical knowledge to analyse and interpret this data. Subsequently, the manager is unsure how to utilise this data to gain insights on how to improve response times and outcomes for students. The administration team manager decided to hire you to assist in analysing and interpreting the data. The table below shows a data file that was archived containing information on student queries for one week. Table 1 Job Code Student ID Student Name Date Opened (d/mm/yyyy h:mm) Date Closed (d/mm/yyyy h:mm) Hours Charged Job Type Job Priority Job Status 0001 0009990t Charles Brody 01/08/2020 10:30:49 01/08/2020 12:30:49 2 IT Important Closed 0002 0001090t John Lucas 02/08/2020 15:23:26 02/08/2020 16:23:26 1 IT Normal Closed 0003 0009989t Adam Smith 02/08/2020 18:21:46 04/08/2020 16:20:23 1 Teaching Less Important Closed 0004 0001100t Maree Sarah 03/08/2020 09:36:21 05/08/2020 12:20:23 4 Teaching Normal Closed 0005 0009988t Eve Bonny 04/08/2020 12:24:20 6 Assessment Important Re Process 0006 0001120t Adelle Smith 04/08/2020 09:28:26 1 Assessment Less Important Open 0007 0009987t Jill Water 05/08/2020 11:30:33 3 Assessment Important In Process 0008 0001130t Jack Hill 06/08/2020 12:10:33 06/08/2020 14:30:33 2 Assessment Important Closed While only a small number of queries were received from students in the first week of the month, student queries are expected to go up over the remainder of the month. However, before getting actual data from the job management system in the coming weeks, Eljay school has asked you to explore the possible analyses that can be performed if using the current output. Eljay provided you with a document listing specific instructions on what you are expected to do in Excel. The instructions are listed below. Requirements (1) Open an Excel Workbook and name it as ‘Student ID_ Student Name_ ACCT6001 Assessment 3’ (i.e. 0009989t_Adam Smith_ACCT6001 Assessment 3). Create a worksheet labelled as ‘Job Data’. Make a table similar to the one above using hypothetical details for 50 students. The table should include the following columns: Job Code, Student ID, Student Name, Date Opened, Date Closed, Job Type, Job Priority, Job Status. In your hypothetical data, assume: a) all student queries were made by students located in Australia, b) at least 30 jobs that have a job status of “closed” c) at least one of each Job Status is included in the data set for each Job Type. For example, include at least: • “open”, “in process”, “re process”, and “closed” entries for “IT”, • “open”, “in process”, “re process”, and “closed” entries for “Teaching”, and • “open”, “in process”, “re process”, and “closed” entries for “Assessment” d) All queries are made between 01/08/2020 and 28/08/2020. e) Each student lodges a query in the job management system only once. So, each row of data contains information about a specific student. (2) In the ‘Job Data’ worksheet, add a column labelled as ‘Time taken to close job. This column should show the time spent resolving each job (e.g. student query). The values for this column should be reported using the “number” format and calculated using a: a) combination of the date opened and date closed columns. b) formula that only includes entries with a “Job Type” equal to “Closed”. (3) Create a new worksheet in your workbook and label it as ‘Job Duration’. In this worksheet: a) Report the descriptive statistics (i.e. mean, median, maximum, minimum) for both the “Time taken to close job” column added to the ‘Job Data’ worksheet and the “Hours Charged” column. A brief commentary on the results should be provided (between 50 and 100 words). b) Include another table in this worksheet showing for each week the: • Total number of jobs, • Total number of jobs “Closed”, • Total number of “Important” jobs “Open”, and • Average time taken to close “Important” jobs. The values for each week should be calculated using Excel formulas based on values from the ‘Job Data’ worksheet (e.g. the values in your table should change if values in the ‘Job data’ table change). The table may look like Table 2. Table 2 Week 1 Week 2 Week 3 Week 4 Job Count 8 13 9 15 Jobs Closed 5 6 7 12 “Important” Jobs “Open” 1 1 2 3 Average time taken to close “Important” jobs 1.5 1.8 2.6 3.9 The administration team believe that the problem with Key Performance Indicators focused on the number of jobs closed each week was that “important” jobs were not being prioritised. Do you find support for this belief? Use a chart(s) to report the results for correlation to support your answer. (4) Create a worksheet labelled as ‘Job Type’. Include a table in this worksheet showing the number of jobs for each week grouped by the three different job types. The values should be directly linked to the ‘Job Data’ worksheet. The table may look like Table 3. Table 3 Job Type Week 1 Week 2 Week 3 Week 4 Total Assessment 4 6 4 7 21 IT 2 3 2 3 10 Teaching 2 4 3 5 14 Total 8 13 9 15 45 (5) Create a worksheet and label it as ‘Pivot Tables and Charts’. Build tables and charts that show the average Job Duration by Job Type and Job Priority. Provide these by creating 2 pivot tables/charts (one for each Job Type and Job Priority). Place both of these tables and charts on the same worksheet. A sample for output of Job Duration by Job Type is shown in Figure 1. For each table/chart, comment on whether you think the school would be able to introduce a policy of no more than 2 working days (48 hours) to resolve students queries. Figure 1 (6) Of the employees directly responsible for resolving student queries, the school currently has 3 contract-employees working in the administration team, 2 in the teaching team, and 1 in the corporate services team. Contract employees from the administration team charge the school $60 per hour, teaching team employees charge $80 per hour and corporate services $110 per hour. The administration team manager, who receives a salary of $70,000 per annum, asked you about using data from the job management system to develop a monthly budget. The following information was gathered for you to use in developing this budget. 1. “Hours charged” for “Assessment” jobs are invoiced by the administration team 60% of the time and the remaining 40% of the “Hours charged” are invoiced by the teaching team. 2. All “Hours charged” for “IT” jobs are invoiced by corporate services team 3. The “Hours charged” to “Teaching” jobs are invoiced by the teaching team 90% of the time while the remaining 10% are invoiced by the administration team. Create a ‘Budget Summary Report’ worksheet. Include a table with a column for the Team, Estimated hours, and Total Costs. The values for the estimated hours charged column should be linked to the ‘Job Data’ worksheet. Use appropriate functions to fill out the remaining cells of the table. A sample table is shown in Table 5. Table 5 Team Estimated hours Cost (per hour) Total costs Administration 33 60 71,890.00 Corporate Services 48 110 5,280.00 Teaching 51 80 4,080.00 Generate a pie chart to show the distribution of expected costs across different teams. (7) Due to the recent economic crisis around the world, the school would like to cut costs and automate several processes. Given strong industry demand for using Artificial Intelligence (AI) tools to manage customer queries, you believe that a large number of student queries could be managed using an AI bot. However, to implement this technology at the school, a part-time employee will need to be employed along with a software-as-a-service (SAAS) subscription. The part-time employee will cost $35,000 per year. However, you expect that the budgeted costs (in requirement 6) will be significantly reduced. If the school purchases the AI bot, it will half the amount of time required by the administration manager to manage student queries, reducing this cost to $35,000 per year. The percentage of “Hours charged” will also decrease for all job types and only a small charge per “Closed” job will be incurred for the SAAS subscription (as shown in Table 6). Table 6 Team Reduction in “Hours charged” (%) Charge per “Closed” job Assessment 60% $1.20 IT 30% $2.20 Teaching 20% $1.60 If the School does not implement the AI bot tool, the number of jobs performed by employees will remain unchanged. Do you recommend the School purchases the AI bot? (8) Create a worksheet labelled as ‘Analysis and Recommendation’. This worksheet should contain the following three sections. a) Findings – Briefly summarise your findings based on the analysis performed in requirement 2 to requirement 7. b) Recommendation for additional analysis – In this section, you should comment on whether additional analyses can be performed using the types of data that the administration team manager currently receives from the job management system. You should provide one example of an additional analyses that can be performed using the given data and explain how to perform the analysis. Comment on how the additional analysis would help the administration team manager to make business decisions. c) Recommendation for additional data – Currently there is an option for the administration manager to get other types of data from the job management system. Provide one practical example of an additional type of data that should be collected about student queries (e.g. jobs). Suggest the type of analysis that can be done using the additional data. Comment on how the analysis on additional data would help the administration department improve business decision making.

Prior to beginning work on this discussion forum, be certain to have read all the required resources for this week. In recent years, the psychology profession has been greatly influenced by various forms of technology. The prevalence of psychology professionals using technology to market themselves and engage, socialize, and interact with others has created new opportunities and challenges. This is particularly true with regard to potential interactions with clients via these technologies. Given the exponential growth with which these technological advancements are permeating our world, we expect to see the proliferation of new issues, challenges, and opportunities within the realms of psychological research and practice.
In your initial post:
Provide an overview of the relevant issues, ongoing trends, challenges, and future opportunities for psychology professionals and the populations they serve. Explain how the APA’s Ethical Principles of Psychologists and Code of Conduct can be used to guide decisions in the ethical application of these technologies. Construct clear and concise arguments using evidence-based psychological concepts and theories to explain how current technological and policy shifts may influence trends in psychological research and practice. Evaluate potential work settings where the use of technologies promotes ease and convenience for both psychology professionals and the populations they serve. What are the potential responsibilities of the psychology professionals as providers of care with regard to the use of these technologies? Does the increase in ease, convenience, and experience satisfaction for the parties involved outweigh any potential negative outcomes?
WEEK 2 DISCUSSION
Prior to beginning work on this discussion forum, be certain to have read all the required resources for this week.
The collaborative practice of clinicians across disciplines requires a shared language, appreciation of diagnostic and therapeutic paradigms, and recognition of appropriate roles within the health care team. This collaborative environment is at the heart of a health care system that utilizes the skills and expertise of all its team members in appropriate and extended roles. This model of care delivery is often called integrated care (IC) or collaborative care (CC). Although this model is endorsed by many professional societies and agencies, the CC/IC care delivery model can fail due to multiple factors.
In your initial post, consider the clinical partnerships that result within the CC/IC delivery model. Integrating concepts developed from different content domains in psychology, address the following questions.
How might health care teams achieve therapeutic goals for individual clients? How does this support health literacy? What factors might lead to the failure of the CC/IC delivery model? How might lack of acceptance of the value or viability of the CC/IC model by stakeholders, lack of awareness of the clinical competencies of various members of the team, barriers to financial reimbursement for services, and lack of integration of support services within the practice cause a breakdown in efficacy? What supportive interventions within the CC/IC model address such issues? In addition, consider how successful health care models assume an understanding of each profession’s competencies and responsibilities. For example, primary care providers (PCPs) are sometimes unaware of the abilities and practice scope of psychology professionals.
Identify methods of targeted intervention and education for PCPs that might alleviate potential issues for the CC/IC model. Explain how the APA Ethical Code of Conduct can be used to guide decisions in these complex situations. Evaluate and comment on the potential work settings where you might find the CC/IC model. In what ways might this model provide more job satisfaction?
WEEK 3 DISCUSSION (1)
Prior to beginning work on this discussion forum, be certain to have read all the required resources for this week. The use of mandated, or legally coerced, treatment is widespread. Yet research demonstrating the efficacy of this type of treatment is limited, and mandating mental health treatment is one of the most contested issues in the field of psychology. To justify the continued use of mandated treatment, policymakers, practitioners, and researchers are obligated to demonstrate the effectiveness and limitations of such treatment programs.
You have been called in to consult on cases that may require mandated treatment. After reviewing the PSY699 The ethics of mandated treatment scenarios (Links to an external site.), choose two to discuss in your initial post. Begin your research with the required resources for this week. Using the specific situations presented in each of the scenarios you have chosen, conduct further research to help inform your recommendations for each individual. A minimum of one resource per scenario, beyond those already required for the assignment, must be included in your initial post.
In your post, construct clear and concise arguments using evidence-based psychological concepts and theories to present your recommendations as to whether or not treatment should be mandated for the individuals in each of the scenarios. As you write your recommendations, be certain to provide insights into the following questions.
What are the ethical principles and implications raised by legally mandating clients into treatment? What evidence exists regarding the effectiveness of treatment with and without coercion for this type of situation? What would be the challenges in evaluating the effectiveness of mandated treatment? How might mandated treatment impact your clinical decision making as the mental health professional assigned to these cases? What client factors might limit or augment the potential benefits of treatment if it were mandated? Integrating concepts from your research and the required readings, offer insights across different content domains as to why you have reached these conclusions. Explain how you used the APA Ethical Code of Conduct to guide your decisions. Evaluate the generalizability of your specific research findings to the situations presented and provide a rationale as to why this research supports your recommendations.
WEEK 3 DISCUSSION (2)
Effective clinical innovations and the dissemination of research findings are key elements in the growth and development of the psychology profession. There are numerous avenues that enable authors to publish and present their work. Poster presentations at conferences are effective methods for communicating research findings and providing opportunities to meet with other researchers and clinicians to discuss the research being presented. Thus, these types of conference presentations play a key role in the proliferation of research.
In this week’s discussion, you will be submitting your proposal for the Week Five Virtual Conference. You may utilize relevant assignments from previous courses in this program or suitable projects from your professional life. See the PSY699 Call for Student Poster (Links to an external site.) Presentations document for specific parameters and instructions on how to create your proposal. Following the guidelines presented in the document, create your proposal and attach it to your initial post in the discussion forum. Evaluate the impact participating in conference presentations may have on potential work settings and/or doctoral programs and comment on the following questions in your initial post.
How are conference presentations professionally relevant? What elements of the proposal process were most difficult for you, and why? What positive outcomes do you anticipate will come from this process, which may be applied to potential work settings and/or doctoral programs?
