Chapter 24 – Financial Statement Analysis & Case (Part 3) & Chapter 24 – Financial Statement Analysis & Case (Part 4)

Help me study for my Accounting class. I’m stuck and don’t understand.

Chapter 24 – Financial Statement Analysis & Case (Part 3)

1. Identify the company that has the greatest amount of financial leverage in its capital structure based on the Long-term debt / equity ratio. State the ratio’s value.

2. For the company you identified above in 1, also state its total liabilities to total assets percentage, and its total equity to total assets percentage (common size data). These two percentages add to 100%.

3. In chapter 9 in Finkler’s discussion of financial leverage (pp. 91-92) he explains that companies can increase return on equity by using financial leverage, albeit with some risk since volatility of yield is increased. Verify that the company you have identified in this assignment is one of the highest companies in return on equity (from Part 1).

Website & Campaign Mockup

I’m studying for my English class and don’t understand how to answer this. Can you help me study?

Website & Campaign Mockup Assignment Sheet

Purpose

In this final major project, you will put your research from the previous module into action. Using the topic and sources that you gathered from the previous project as a starting point, you have the opportunity to do something with that research. The goal here is to take what you have learned from the research about your topic, personalize it with your own rhetorical purpose and audience choices, and present your ideas publicly to a specific audience. You will also have practice with “genre shifting,” publicizing your message in two different media and reflect on your rhetorical choices.

Assignment Requirements

For the final project, you will compose two texts in two different genres for a specific audience using your research from the previous modules. Your first text will be a web article. Your second text will be an open genre campaign mock-up, meaning some form of public outreach intended to meet the needs of your issue.

Text 1: Web Article

Your task is to write a 1500-2000 word web article that communicates the results of your research to an audience of your choice, for a purpose (e.g., persuade, inform, call to action, etc.) of your choice. Because this is a web article, you’ll want to adhere to the genre conventions (and reader expectations) for web writing. So, in addition to meeting the basic requirements above, your article should include:

  • Visual rhetoric: Because web readers have short attention spans, web articles are accessible and entertaining. The genre most often includes photographs or illustrations to draw readers in and catch their interest. This assignment will require at least one visual element besides your text. You can choose if those will be photos, illustrations, charts, graphs. When deciding what visual element(s) to include, be sure to keep your specific audience and purpose in mind.
  • Page design: Web articles are designed for on-screen reading, so as you plan your article, you’ll put together a plan for your page layout, use of color and formatting. These things are important since they establish your ethos as a writer and help your audience read more easily.
  • Hyperlinked References: When you read an article on the web, you don’t scroll to the bottom or flip to the last page to find references, you click on a hyperlink. You are required to have 6-10 functional hyperlinks.

Text 2: Campaign Mock-up

As you are working on your web article, you will also be thinking about what other genres could be useful for your rhetorical purpose. You will produce a second text, of the genre of your choice, that will further fulfill the purpose of your web article. Your text should be public-facing, which means it interacts with a public audience. Some possible texts include:

  • Social media posts via Instagram, Twitter, Facebook, SnapChat, etc.
  • Letters to targeted professionals or politicians associated with the issue
  • Presentation/Performance/Community interaction geared towards the public in a live or meditated setting (ie. podcasts, TED Talk/lecture, workshop or discussion group, music/theater/art/dance/film/video performance, etc.)

Remember that you are not limited to these options. You will create a mock-up of the text of your choice and prepare a 5-7 minute presentation for the class explaining how you chose your second text and how this text interacts with the public.

Topic Summary:
In the past 5 years, more than 130 trangender individuals have been brutally murdered in the United States. While each case varies, it is evident that violence mostly affect trangender women of color, who make up approximately 4 in 5 of all anti-transgender homicides according to HRC Foundation’s “Dismantling a Culture of Violence” report. They are the intersection of racism, sexism, homophobia, and transphobia, depriving them of employment, housing, healthcare, and other basic necessities. This culture of violence is created because of the stigma around transgender individuals, denial of opportunity and heightened risk factors. Regardless of living in today’s culture of violence and hatred, transgender indiciduals continue to overcome unfair barriers. But we must come together, whether it affects us directly or not, and dismantle these barriers. These people are being killed for simply living up to who they are. Imagine you’re walking down the street and someone harrases you just because they didn’t like the pants you’re wearing. It’s not enough to grieve the loss of these victims with social media post and hashtags, “Our lives become a hashtag, we become a part of this ‘dead before 32’ narrative and in two weeks people forget [us],” Desi Hall, a black trans woman and host of the TRANSfigure podcast, tells Vox. We must take actions to honor their memories, prevent and remove this stigma in our community. In my research paper, I hope to address how anti-transgender stigma, denial or oppourtunity and increased risk factors contribute to this violence but most importantly i hope to provide ways that all of us can help directly make an impact in our community to make it a safer place for transgender people.

Business environment ethic essay

I need support with this Law question so I can learn better.

(See the file below for more details)

Most people do not spend much time thinking about the law, even though the law is all around them, all the time. As a society, we expect everyone to act in conformance with the law. Most people in society also expect people to act ethically. Note that for our purposes, unlawful behavior is generally also unethical.[1] But not all lawful behavior is ethical. There are many things individuals and companies may do that are in accordance with law, but that may well be considered by many to be unethical.[2] Unfortunately, we regularly and frequently see examples of unethical behavior in business.

The three primary purposes of this exercise are: 1) to encourage you to keep up with the world around you; and 2) to help you recognize just how much our society and your everyday life is regulated and controlled by law; and 3) to help you identify and reflect on some of the ethical challenges in society today.

Specifically, for this assignment, you are to find a news article reporting on a current event related to ethics in business or government.
[3] Your primary article should be from a print media source such as the Wall Street Journal, Bloomberg, the New York Times, the Washington Post, TIME magazine, Newsweek, the London Times, the Guardian, or similar source. You may use information from NBC news, MSNBC, ABC news, CBS news, CNN, Fox news, NPR, PBS, the BBC, or other similar news source as one of your secondary sources. You need to be able to identify and differentiate good information from poor information on the Internet. You must provide attribution to any source of information you use in writing your essay.


[1] There are times when unlawful activity is viewed by some as necessary when laws are unjust. For example, several states allow the use of medical marijuana. The federal government considers that a crime. Some people believe the use of medical marijuana is ethical and some view it as unethical.

[2] You may want to watch this short video regarding short selling. http://www.cc.com/video-clips/7pous8/the-daily-show-with-jon-stewart-the-money-honey-bee.

[3] Note that this is a current event related assignment. The article you choose must be dated after the date of the first class of the semester.

Stephanie is planning a cruise to the Caribbeans and has a budget for new evening wear of $500. She plans to purchase new shoes and dresses. The average price for a pair of shoes is $50 while the average price for an evening dress is $100. Her current budget constraint is pictured in the graph. Stephanie catches an end of season sale on dresses and the average price of dresses falls to $50. As a result:

(which is the best answer choice) 

A. The opportunity cost of each individual dress increases as a result of the price reduction.

B. Stephanie’s new budget constraint will be flatter.

C. Stephanie will be able to afford more dresses for a given number of shoes.
