Instructions: For the following writing assignment, please respond to all parts of the following question. I will evaluate your essay based on the following criteria. First, have you clearly articulated an argument? Second, do you adequately engage the readings? I encourage you to make references to passages in assigned readings, but do not write a paper that consists of a string of quotations. No bibliography is necessary, but I do expect you to cite sources in the text. For example, if you excerpt a quotation from Rivoli on page 155. Please write (Rivoli 2014: 155) next to the quotation. Third, do you have strong evidence to back up your conclusions? Fourth, is your paper well-organized? Fifth, does your paper demonstrate a clear grasp of the subject matter? Please do not feel as though you need to argue one way or another to receive a good grade. There is no definitive right answer to the question, but there are wrong answers. Seventh, stating a principle, concept, or fact is not the same as providing an explanation for that principle, concept, or fact. Be sure to adequately define and explain the positions that you take in your analysis. Eighth, in your conclusion be sure to remind me of your original argument. I have one last reminder. I promise that this is the last reminder. When you paraphrase an idea that you have taken from a course reading, be sure to reformulate the idea in your own words. There should be “NO” trace of the original sentence in the revised sentence or passage.

** Plagiarism is a serious infraction. Proven plagiarized work will be treated as not submitted, resulting in an F for the course.

Question 1

Overall, Rivoli has an optimistic view of economic globalization. Ehrenreich and Hochschild, on the other hand, have a much more pessimistic view, particularly as it relates to women and children in the developing world. Write an essay in which you compare and contrast these disparate views. Based on the evidence presented, who gets it right?

Homework 3. Cross Country Estimation of Health Production in Theory and
Practice. . Due: Thursday, October 8th.
From the homework 1:
Consider two health outcomes with two associated production functions. The first is the health of the
very young as measured by the infant mortality rate (denote the infant mortality rate as 𝑚). The second
outcome is the health of adult women as measured by the 5 year survival rate for breast cancer (denoted
as 𝑠). In addition to these two outcomes, we are going to assume there are only two inputs into health.
This first input is labor (as measured by physicians per 1000 population), denoted by 𝑙. The second input
is capital measured by health expenditures as a % of GDP1 and denoted by 𝑘.
Given this set up, assume the following production functions:
• Infant Health Production: 𝑚 = 𝐴𝑙!𝑘”. where A is a constant multiplier on the production
function and 𝛼 and 𝛽 are the Cobb Douglas exponents which denote the relative efficiency of
labor and capital for the production of infant health.
• Adult Female Health Production: 𝑠 = 𝐵𝑙#𝑘$. where B is a constant multiplier on the production
function and 𝛾 and 𝛿 are the Cobb Douglas exponents which denote the relative efficiency of
capital and labor.
• Assume that the price of capital is some constant 𝑤%, the price of labor is some constant 𝑤&
(which we could assign as the marginal cost of training and hiring an additional physician per
1000), and that society is willing to pay some market price to decrease the infant mortality rate by
1 per 1000 births, and that price is denoted as 𝑝`(. Likewise society is willing to pay some
market price to increase the breast cancer survival rate by 1% (denoted as 𝑝)).
1. Finally, we are ready to estimate a national cobb-Douglas health production function. Here I have
estimatd the theoretical model of infant health that we developed in homework 1.
Lnphys1000_imp: is log physicians per 1000 people in the country. Lnhlthgdp: is log of health
expenditures as a % of GDP. Otherwise, use the description of the production functions from
problem 3 of homework 1 (reprinted above) to answer these questions.

a. What is the policy impact on infant mortality of training and hiring additional doctors such
that the physicians per 1000 heads within a country increases by 1%?

Now I estimate the parameters on the production function for adult female health.
Lnbcancer_imp is the log of the 5 year breast cancer survival rate, otherwise use the above
descriptions:
b. Suppose we want to know a lower bound estimate of the percent increase in the breast
cancer survival rate caused by a 1% increase in medical expenditures (as a percent of GDP).
According to the 95% Confidence Interval what is this estimate? Does the confidence
interval include zero? What is the significance of whether the confidence interval includes
(or excludes) zero?

c. Assume expenditures as a percent of GDP is fixed at 6. Assume that the market price of
increasing the breast cancer survival probability by 1 percent is $100,000,000 and the cost of
training and hiring an additional physician per 10000 people is $2,000,000. According to
your derivations of the first order conditions in problem 3 of homework 1, what is the
efficient level of labor? What is the efficient 5 year breast cancer survival rate?
d. Now assume that we have 10 physicians per 1000 people within the US. These physicians
can only either be allocated to servicing infants (and therefore are inputs into the infant
health production) or breast cancer patients (and therefore are inputs into the adult female
health production function). Assume that in both production functions health expenditures
as a percent of GDP is 6. Assume that there always must be a minimium of 1 physcian per
1000 in each of the production functions. Graph the production possibility frontier showing
the trade off between infant health and adult female health. It is just fine to plot 5 or 6
points on the frontier and then trace out the general shape. Note that this PPF looks a little
different than what we typically see in an econ text book, why?
e. Choose any point on the PPF as your preferred point for allocative efficiency. Just tell me
what that means society is producing and how this point would reflect societies’ values.

GUIDELINES AND BACKGROUND TO THIS ASSIGNMENT

 

Plagiarism

 

As part of your study you will be involved in carrying out research and using this when writing up your coursework. It is important that you correctly acknowledge someone else’s writing, thoughts or ideas and that you do not attempt to pass this off as your own work.  Doing so is known as plagiarism.  It is not acceptable to copy from another source without acknowledging that it is someone else’s writing or thinking. This includes using paraphrasing as well as direct quotations. You are expected to correctly cite and reference the works of others. The Centre for Academic Writing provides documents to help you get this right. If you are unsure, please visit www.coventry.ac.uk/caw.  You can also check your understanding of academic conduct by completing the Good Academic Practice quiz.

 

Self-plagiarism or reuse of work previously submitted

You must not submit work for assessment that you have already submitted (partially or in full), either for your current course or for another qualification of this and any other university, unless this is specifically provided for in your assignment brief or specific course or module information. Where earlier work by you is citable, ie. it has already been published/submitted, you must reference it clearly. Identical pieces of work submitted concurrently will also be considered to be self-plagiarism. Self-plagiarism is unacceptable because you cannot gain credit for the same work twice.

 

 

The University VLE includes a plagiarism detection system and assessors are experienced enough to recognise plagiarism when it occurs. Copying another student’s work, using previous work of your own or copying large sections from a book or the internet are examples of plagiarism and carry serious consequences. If you are a business student and joined Coventry University in September 2020 or later please use APA 7th edition referencing, if you joined prior to this date you may use APA or the existing Harvard Reference Style (Coventry version) that you are familiar with. Law students should use OSCOLA. Please be consistent in the referencing style that you use and use it correctly to avoid a case of plagiarism or cheating being brought. If you are unsure, please contact the Centre for Academic Writing, your Progress Coach or a member of the course team.

 

Return of Marked Work

 

You can expect to have marked work returned to you 11/12/2020 (10 working days). If for any reason there is a delay you will be kept informed. Marks and feedback will be provided online. As always, marks will have been internally moderated only, and will therefore be provisional; your mark will be formally agreed later in the year once the external examiner has completed his / her review.

submit an outline and thesis statement for your informative paper.

When you write an informative essay that presents two sides of an issue without revealing bias, there are three primary organizational tactics that can be used:

Present all the major arguments on one side of the issue, and then present all the major arguments of the opposing viewpoint.
Present one of the major issues relating to the overarching topic, and in the same paragraph, discuss the viewpoints of both sides on this particular issue.
In one paragraph, present one of the viewpoints on one major aspect of the controversy, and then follow that paragraph with another paragraph presenting the opposing views’ arguments related to the same aspect of the controversy. You then repeat that pattern one to three more times.
For this assignment:

Use the outline template and one of the strategies listed above to organize the materials for your paper.
Use specific quotes or cited evidence in APA style format for your supporting details.
Develop a concise thesis statement that clearly and accurately presents the main idea you will develop in your paper.

CASSE STUDY: Week 1: Drivers of Globalization, Outsourcing, Cultural Differences

How to Build the Case Responses
Find a minimum of three news articles discussing this issue.
The articles should be news articles, written by journalists for publication in newspapers or on news, websites (cannot be blogs or commercial sites). They may also be transcripts of news stories that were broadcast on television or radio. The article can be different versions of the same issue published in different countries. Many articles from other countries are supplied to library databases from the BBC Monitoring Service, which does no reporting of its own but collects articles from around the world and translates them into English (if they are originally in another language.) For these articles, there will be an indication of which newspaper, website, radio station, etc., was the original source of the article, and in which country it is located. This would be the country of origin.
Your responses should be well-rounded and analytical, and should not just provide a conclusion or an opinion without explaining the reason for the choice.
For full credit, you need to use the material from the week’s lectures, text and/or discussions when responding to the questions. It is important that you incorporate the question into your response (i.e., summarize the case in your introduction) and explain the principle(s) or concept(s) from the text that underlies your judgment.
For each Case (or critically thinking and discussion question) you should provide at least two references in addition to the textbook in APA format (in-text citations and references as described in detail in the syllabus). Each answer should be double-spaced in 12 pt. Use the following Headings and length in your paper:
Prepare a case study report that has three main parts:
1. Summary and Overview of the issue
2. Compare and contrast the perspective on the issue. How are the articles similar or different on how they expose the issues? What are the explicit and implicit issues?
3. Taking from the emergent literature (only journal articles or textbook), what are some of the implications and recommendations for conducting international business.
4. Write at least two questions that can be exposed (still without an answer) from analyzing this issue. These inquiries can be questions/issues that you were not able to answer or understand. Clarify where or how do you believe you can obtain this information. Mention specific sources (do not simply say, “Searching on the Internet”).

Group paper assignment:

This is a group assignment paper of 1000 words in total. My part involves writing around (200 words) on National Health Service (NHS) drawbacks in a middle-income country. You can use a specific country or countries in examples.

Regarding references, I think 3-5 references may be appropriate for a 200-word paragraph/paragraphs, considering each point is referenced.

So, the main aim of the paper is proposing a case of why National Health Services model is appropriate for a middle-income country.

Below is the structure of the paper and all its parts just for reference.

Title: National Health Service healthcare financing module for a middle-income country

• Key strengths of the NHS in a middle-income country.
• NHS drawbacks in a middle-income country (My Part).
• How this module is ideal for a middle-income country.
• Recommendations and conclusion.

Below is the first 2 parts of the assignment written by my colleagues for reference and guidance on the structure and flow.

Introduction

The National health services (NHS) aimed at the provision of quality primary care and prevention of illness enable countries to achieve the highest health metrics, such as life expectancy and reduced mortality (Schoen et al., 2008). Governments must ensure accessibility, affordability and acceptable quality for the entire population without discrimination (WHO, 2020). Therefore, good health and wellbeing is part of the 2030 UN Sustainable Development Goals (UNDP, 2020).

The middle-income countries can provide essential healthcare services and basic primary care in general by a combination of new financial systems, due to various their economic condition. Current health spending is about 6% of GDP on average. Also, except for individual Eastern European nations, middle-income countries rely on high out-of-pocket costs to fund their health systems (Okoroh et al., 2018).

NHS is a model based on tax-funded and government-managed health services. The government allocates the national insurance budget annually through the spending evaluation process. Like every other financial framework for wellbeing, the NHS is related to strengths and drawbacks, irrespective of a country’s economic category. The governments generally allocate substantial budgets for healthcare (Amado, 2018). The paper discusses how the NHS should implement from an economic viewpoint in terms of its benefits and drawbacks.

National health service key strengths

The National health service financing model integrates healthcare financing and the provision of healthcare services to the population on a universal basis, at no or minimal cost, eliminating financial barriers (Alraga, 2017). Furthermore, it achieves risk pooling at the highest degree, where out-of-pocket payment by patients is reduced to ensure financial protection against catastrophic health payments and equity in service use (O’Donnell et al., 2008).

The National health service financing model offers a broader revenue base than social insurance through taxation. In middle income countries, while most people cannot make significant insurance contributions, almost all of their governments are still able to raise the taxes needed to provide public goods and services, which helps to minimize distortions in particular sectors of the economy (World Bank, n.d.). Besides, with a limited budget, governments will be able to trade off or spend on other public health priorities, such as education or reducing poverty, as well as efficiently increasing money with low administration costs relative to the amount of money they raise (Appleby, 2013).

Most of the middle-income countries have a centralized decision-making system, thus allowing governments to be more efficient in addressing strategic health problems and to be effective in the management, planning, and formulation of different health programs and policies (Almalki et al., 2011).
