1. Select one of the assigned readings and briefly discuss the most interesting thing you learned from it — what you found interesting and why. Make sure to note which reading you are using in your response.

Refer to multiple types of social determinants of health and do not focus on health care/medical care when discussing the relationship between social justice and health.

Public health
The demand for effective health care administrators continues to increase as the number of hospitals, clinics, and medical facilities grows. The definition of social justice revolves around the concept of equality and human rights. It aims to redress inequalities based on gender, race, religion, age, and other characteristics. Administrators can be effective leaders in the medical field by promoting and projecting examples of social justice in health care, ensuring equal treatment for patients. Health has a special meaning to individuals and communities at large. Good health is necessary for human well-being, providing intrinsic value for comfort, contentment and pursuits of the joys of life. But good health does more than that. It is important in allowing individuals to exercise a range of human rights, both civic and political, social and economic (WHO).
cost of goods sold, however, the account is also affected by the $10,000,000 decrease in sales. The net retained earnings is $3,000,000 less if 5000 units are sold in the first quarter rather than 10,000 units. The sales reduction is calculated by taking the difference between the 10,000 units sold sales ($20,000,000) from the 5000 units sold sales ($10,000,000). The decrease in sales also decreases the cash and/or accounts receivable balance by $10,000,000.
For Quarter 2, Merrimack Tractors and Mowers sold 20,000 units instead of 10,000 units which causes the inventory on the balance sheet to decrease by $11,500,000. This is calculated through subtracting the $15,000,000 cost of goods sold of the 10,000 units from the $26,500,000 of the 20,000 units. Since the cost of goods sold expense is higher with selling more units, the retained earnings account on the balance sheet will be $11,500,000 less, but $20,000,000 more with higher sales. This creates a $8,500,000 net increase in retained earnings. The $20,000,000 in sales also increases cash and/or accounts receivable.
During Quarter 3, 10,000 units are sold, thus there are no changes to the balance sheet. Inventory, retained earnings, and cash/accounts receivable remain the same.
Quarter 4 has a similar change as in Quarter 1. The inventory increases by $8,500,000 since 500
