Create a 9 pages page paper that discusses importance of business models nowadays. The structures allow the firms to determine the elements and functions of the business, value proposition and revenue stream so that the company can make sure that it has all the sources required for running the enterprise.

Therefore, it is suggested that intellectuals.com is created so that the website can meet the demands of online book buyers. It will even make sure that the customers are provided access to the entire range of books for kids and young adults at affordable price ranges. This online business will be developed on the basis of affiliate, merchant and subscription models so that the company can survive in a tough and competitive environment.

Recently, there has been an increase in the number of online businesses because technological advancements have eased the operational processes to a great extent. Even globalization and elimination of trade barriers among nations have permitted the companies to reach a wide target market globally (Ryan & Jones, 2012). In the mid-1990s, there was a sudden rise in the dot com companies but some of them had to close their enterprises due to improper business models. Therefore, it is mandatory for all types of organizations to design and implement a business model which will allow it to assess the viability of the venture (Rios & Riquelme, 2010).

In this paper, a brief overview of various forms of business models available for online companies is discussed. Then, the importance of these structures is presented to provide clarity about their roles in business performance. After the theoretical understanding, a recommended online venture is detailed along with all vital elements of the enterprise so that there is just about the viability of this unique firm. Finally, the business model of Fresh Direct is presented to give an idea about the technique employed by the well-known online entity for managing its&nbsp.operations.

Workers’ compensation is the only means for workers to be able to support their families monetarily during the time of injury, which sometimes may be for a few months to a few years.

Many workers across America have had a negative, perhaps even slightly hostile, experience with workers’ compensation and have had the need to dispute certain aspects such as compensation, medical bill payment, and level of disability rating among other issues.

For this assignment, write an essay describing the benefit of the dispute process for the state that you live and/or work in. Think about these questions when writing your essay:

• Why is the dispute process even needed?
• What are common causes of injured workers disputing the level of benefits or compensation?
• What are the workers’ rights and responsibilities when dealing with disputes?
• What is the root cause of disputes? Is it a basic viewpoint of the accident situation in general, or is it a lack of communication, or inaccurate communication between many different groups?
• How does the dispute process fit into the claims management process?

Your essay should be a minimum of four pages. At a minimum, the resources you identified in your Unit IV annotated bibliography should be used in your paper. The annotated bibliography itself will not be included as a part of the assignment, just the resources you identified. All sources used, including your textbook, must be cited and referenced following APA guidelines, and your essay should be formatted in APA style to include a title page and reference page

What Happened When the U.S. Got Rid of Guest Workers? Farms Used Less LaborA study finds scant benefit for the native-born after a program for seasonal workers from Mexico was terminated

ByJEFFREY SPARSHOTT

Feb 8, 2017 3:09 pm ETThere’s an economic argument to limiting immigration to the U.S.: Cut down on the supply of foreign labor and wages will improve for native-born Americans.

But new research shows the equation isn’t that simple.

A team of economists looked at the mid-century “bracero” program, which allowed nearly half a million seasonal farm workers per year into the U.S. from Mexico. The Johnson administration terminated the program in 1964, creating a large-scale experiment on labor supply and demand.

The result wasn’t good news for American workers. Instead of hiring more native-born Americans at higher wages, farmers automated, changed crops or reduced production.

“We find that bracero exclusion failed to raise wages or substantially raise employment for domestic workers in the sector,” the Center for Global Development’s Michael Clemens and Hannah Postel, and Dartmouth College’s Ethan Lewis said. Instead, “employers adjusted to foreign-worker exclusion by changing production techniques where that was possible, and changing production levels where it was not, with little change to the terms on which they demanded domestic labor.”

Indeed, wages in states with the heaviest concentration of braceros—Arizona, California, Nebraska, New Mexico, South Dakota and Texas—rose more slowly after the program ended than wages in states that had no such guest workers. Employment of local workers rose at the same pace in bracero as nonbracero states.

Evidence is scant that illegal or other legal immigrants simply replaced the braceros, the researchers said. For example, U.S. Border Patrol apprehensions rose little in the years immediately following the exclusion. The number of non-Mexican foreign seasonal agricultural workers, meanwhile, hardly rose.

“It’s true that several years later, illegal migration in the mid-1970s and 1980s expanded greatly and one could say that it began to substitute for some of the legal flows during the bracero program,” Mr. Clemens said. “But that just can’t explain the lack of immediate effects on U.S. workers.”

There are signs the labor experiment has played out again in U.S. history. A Wall Street Journal article last year detailed the impact of Arizona’s tough anti-immigration laws on the state’s economy. Rob Knorr, owner RK Farms LLC, said he sharply reduced his acreage and invested $2 million developing a machine to remove stems from his jalapeño peppers following their passage. His goal was to cut the number of laborers he needed by 90%.

Mr. Clemens and his colleagues, who started their project almost two years ago, take the evidence beyond the anecdotal. The research takes a deep dive into records from the 1930s through the 1960s housed at the Dwight D. Eisenhower Presidential Library in Abilene, Kan. Once the researchers ran the numbers, Mr. Clemens said, the results were surprising.

Presidents “Kennedy and Johnson did this explicitly to improve wages and employment for American workers,” Mr. Clemens said. “Nothing like that happened.”

The findings apply to the present day and a broader set of sectors, he said, though exact outcomes are difficult to predict. “There isn’t a simple mechanistic relationship between removing workers and labor conditions,” he said.

Of course, research results remain mixed on the impact of arriving immigrants on native-born wages. Harvard University’s George Borjas, for example, estimated the immigrant influx from 1980-2000 lowered wages by 3% for the average native-born U.S. worker and by 8% for native-born high school dropouts.

Mr. Clemens and his colleagues attempt to look at what happens when you take those foreign workers away.
