I have 5 separate assignments that i've attached, I am not sure how much writing would be required: but I just need the questions answered, more straight to the point mainly.
WKS NLM 380 Flux Analysis WorksheetName:Name: Sisters April, May and June are created a 2019 budget for their very small non profit agency, Trees for tomorrow. The women locate places to plant trees, find and coordinate the volunteers and help the volunteers plant the trees. They now have the results for 3 months of activity to look at and assess how the first quarter of this year is different than the first quarter of last year by doing a "FLUX ANALYSIS". They pay particular attention to items > %10 different that last quarter and come up with questions to ask themselves.

Costing WKS NLM 380 2019 F For each expense listed below, give a go at classifying the expense as one type in each color category. If the cell is cross-hatched, I am telling you that is not applicable. Use your notes and reading to help you decide which the expense is. Several have multiple options that could work, so give it a go, let me see what you think!

NLM 380 Risk Assessment Exercise Perform a short, simple, partial risk analysis on the Phoenix Zoo. 1) Go to the website https://www.phoenixzoo.org/ 2) Browsing the website, come up with 3 risks, one under each of the following categories. I gave an example on the first line. Also, note the Duty of the Board of Directors that is impacted. Classification or Risk Risk – What could happen? Potential Impact described Result of Impact described Duty Strategic Risk – The risk that our organizational strategies will become ineffective. Example = Monsoon Season Few people will attend the zoo Revenues will drop Fiduciary Duty Operational Risk – The risk that there will be an unexpected failure in the day to day operations of the program. Risk 1= Compliance Risk – The risk we are not complying with all necessary laws and regulations. Risk 2 = Reputational Risk – The risk that the organization’s reputation is damaged such that others do not want to business with us. Risk 3 = 3) What kind of communications might have tipped you off for each risk identified? Risk identified in step 2 Response Example Risk: Monsoons Staff communicates of parent saying they won’t go to zoo during monsoon season. Risk 1: Risk 2: Risk 3: 4) Using your judgement, assess the 3 identified risks using the table below Risk identified in step 2 Likelihood that it would happen Impact if it did happen Impact Example Risk: Monsoons Definite! Minor (Monsoons don’t last long and cool down the environment) High Risk 1: Risk 2: Risk 3: 5) Design a risk response based upon your assessment Risk identified in step 2 Response Example Risk: Monsoons Mitigate – Offer half off specials in café during storms and give out “Monsoon Madness” badges. Offer rain-checks when monsoons last longer than 20 minutes. Avoid – Close the park when monsoons are very bad or lightening is happening, give rain-checks. Risk 1: Risk 2: Risk 3: 6) How would you implement the response? Risk identified in step 2 Implementation Example Risk: Monsoons 1. Hold a meeting with staff to let them know of new policy 2. Advertise actions to public on website and entry 3. Print “Rain-checks” and have available to staff at entry 4. Get badges made and have available to staff to give out during monsoons 5. Have lead ticket sales manager be responsible for actions 6. Create a system to monitor response Risk 1: Risk 2: Risk 3: 7) What might it look like to monitor the response? How would you know that the response has been implemented, that it is working and that the risk is still out there? Risk identified in step 2 Monitoring Example Risk: Monsoons · View purchases of Monsoon Madness badges and inquire of staff how they are being distributed · View daily sales logs and revenue reports · View entries using “rain-checks” Risk 1: Risk 2: Risk 3: 8) How would you check to see if the risk was still there? Risk identified in step 2 Response Example Risk: Monsoons Check to see if monsoon activity is still expected (every year, July-Sept) Risk 1: Risk 2: Risk 3:
