  • Title: Factors Affecting External Financing Requirements and Changes in AFN for a Firm

    Please answer/solve the question/problem below:
    -Name five key factors that affect a firm’s external financing requirements. 
    -What is meant by the term “self-supporting growth rate”? How is this rate related to the AFN equation, and how can that equation be used to calculate the self-supporting growth rate? 
    -Suppose a firm makes the following policy changes listed. If a change means that external, nonspontaneous financial requirements (AFN) will increase, indicate this by a (1); indi-cate a decrease by a (2); and indicate no effect or an indeterminate effect by a (0). Think in terms of the immediate effect on funds requirements. 
    a. The dividend payout ratio is increased. 
    b. The firm decides to pay all suppliers on delivery rather than after a 30-day delay in order to take advantage of discounts for rapid payment.
    c. The firm begins to offer credit to its customers, whereas previously all sales had been on a cash basis. 
    d. The firm’s profit margin is eroded by increased competition, although sales hold steady.

  • “Investigation of a Suspected Salmonella Outbreak at Flinn Corporation: A Case Study” Introduction On February 7, 2018, a nurse employed at Flinn Corporation noticed an increase in the number of employees who were sick and “Preventing Salmonella Outbreaks in the Cafeteria: Applying Food Safety Principles and Control Measures”

    Outbreak Investigation
    On February 7, 2018, a nurse employed at the Flinn Corporation noticed an increase in the number of employees who were sick. She was concerned that there may be a Salmonella outbreak at the company. She has interviewed each of the employees at the corporation. She has taken samples and sent them out for testing but has not received the results. She asks you, the local epidemiologist, to investigate to see if an outbreak exists and if so what the source of the outbreak is. You follow the Center for Disease Control and Prevention’s steps in outbreak investigation https://www.cdc.gov/foodsafety/outbreaks/steps/detection.html) and report your findings to her. Please note that we will not address all outbreak investigation steps in this assignment.  Here is an additional resource on epidemiology, https://www.cdc.gov/training/publichealth101/epidemiology.html
    Use the attached Excel worksheet to produce graphs and statistics to answer the questions below. Submit your report as a Word doc and include figures and tables you generate. The report should be easy to follow and interpret and should be written as an academic paper in proper APA formatting.  This paper should be 8-10 pages in length (not including the title page, abstract or references.  The paper should also include properly formatted tables and graphs of the data you are given (please refer to the week 7 learning material on formatting tables and graphs), as well as, the data you analyzed.
    1. Look at the Excel Spreadsheet attached. There are 3 worksheets (see tabs on bottom of page – “Nurse’s Interview”, “Epi Curve”, “Retrospective Cohort Study”). The first sheet “Nurse’s Interview” has a line list of employees who work at Flinn Corporation. This sheet represents the data the nurse has collected from those employees in an interview. Do you think that an outbreak exists? Why would you recommend to further investigate? Discuss your reasoning. (Step 2: Establish outbreak)
    2. Research salmonellosis using academic sources. Are the symptoms that the ill employees exhibit consistent with salmonellosis? Provide a brief summary (1-2 paragraphs) of the disease and discuss the chain of infection for this disease. Use in-text citations in proper APA format and include all sources in your reference section. (Step 3: Verify diagnosis)
    3. Identify the percentage of ill employees with each symptom. For example, 1 out of 12 ill employees had blood in stool (Bs) = 8.3%. (Step 4: Working case definition)
    4. Conduct descriptive epidemiology (Step 6). Describe the characteristics of the ill employees to determine trends and risk factors.
    a. Person – Calculate the percentage of ill employees that are male/female. Determine the mean age of the ill employees.
    b. Place – What percentage of ill employees ate at the cafeteria? What percentage of well employees ate at the cafeteria?
    c. Time – Using the data collected in the Nurse’s Interview, fill in the column “# of cases” in the “Epi Curve” worksheet. Use 0 if there are no cases. As you fill in the data, the graph will automatically generate. Choose an appropriate title for the graph. Copy and paste graph into your report. What type of epidemic curve is it ? (Hint: read https://www.cdc.gov/foodsafety/outbreaks/steps/detection.html)
    5. Based on the information you have gathered, you have developed an hypothesis that there is a food being served at the cafeteria that is causing the employees to become ill. You need to further test this hypothesis by conducting a retrospective cohort study (Step 8). Use the worksheet “Retrospective Cohort Study” to calculate attack rates and risk ratios. The first food item Baked Chicken is done for you. You can also consult https://www.cdc.gov/foodsafety/outbreaks/steps/detection.html for help. Report the Risk ratio for each food item. Based on risk ratios, which is food is most likely to be the source of the illness? Explain.
    6. Based on your findings, what would you recommend for prevention and control measures? Apply food safety principles from academic sources to discuss further prevention of Salmonella outbreaks in the cafeteria. (Step 11) Use in-text citations and include sources in reference section.
    7. Include a properly formatted reference section in APA format that includes at least 3 academic sources (popular sources should not be used).
    8.  Tips for writing your paper:  Include the entire table of risk ratios and attack rates as one table, make sure to include the graph of cases reported, and you can also include the tables from the Nurses interview in the attached Excel file

  • Time Series Analysis on Call Center Data Title: Time Series Analysis on Call Center Data Introduction: The data provided is a history of the number of calls and the number of urgent calls received by a call center over the past several years. In this

    Load up the data file that I have provided below into Excel.  It is a history of the number of calls and the number of urgent calls that a call center received over the course of the past several years.
    Once you have the file loaded in Excel, conduct a time series analysis on the data – both the calls received and the urgent calls. That’s all the instructions I am going to give you (imagine I am a bad stakeholder).  
    Think about these things:  What time series analysis can you conduct on this? Are there seasonal fluctuations?  Is there a trend for the data? Conduct an analysis of both columns and provide me with two different forecasts for the rest of the year. 
    Consider your forecasts for July – December of 2018.  For both forecasts, be able to explain your methodology, your results, and your confidence in the results.

  • “Exploring Poetry: A Compilation of Six Unique Poems”

    Instructions: 
    In ONE DOCUMENT, compile your six poems. They can appear in any order but must be labeled by form in the upper left corner of each poem’s page (or first page):
    1. Where I’m From
    2. one of the six poetry forms we learned in class (lyric, narrative, pantoum, six-word memoir, haiku, rant)
    3. another of the six poetry forms we learned in class 
    4. a third choice from the list of the six poetry forms we learned in class
    5. Poet’s choice: anything you want, whether you make up your own rules for a poem, choose one of the three unused forms from the ones learned in class, or explore a poetry form mentioned in the poetry slide deck.
    6. a second poet’s choice poem
    Before you submit your work, please address the following items:
    Each poem should appear on its own page (all six-word memoirs on one page and all haiku on one page). If a poem continues on to another page, that’s fine.
    LABEL each poem by placing the form in the UPPER LEFT CORNER prior to the title or start of each poem. 
    Do not title six-word memoirs and haikus. All other poems should have a title. The title of the first poem has already been given to you: “Where I’m From.”
    You have more freedom with poetry to experiment with layout, spacings and fonts. Just make sure they are legible and clear!
    DO NOT CENTER POEMS USING THE CENTER FORMATTING BUTTON. If you want your poem to be in the middle of the page, LEFT JUSTIFY AND TAB IN so that each line starts at the same place on the page. When you use the center button, you let the computer format your poem for you! Centered poems look bad, too. 
    Author’s annotations explaining or clarifying any of the poetry is typically not necessary and entirely optional. If you do feel compelled to include any explanations or notes, make sure that they won’t be confused with the text of the poems themselves. 
    Poems that adhere to a form must accurately do so for full credit. Pay attention to form rules, syllable and rhyme or meter requirements. 
    Any poems missing from this assignment will still be expected to appear in your final exam portfolio. 
    If you need additional guidance for completing your poems to submit, please consult the poetry slide deck linked above and look at slides 16 and 17!
