  1. If you were to choose 4 financial ratios to evaluate a company’s performance, which 4 would you choose and why?

Let’s also assume that the balance sheet reported an increase in accounts payable of $10,000, a decrease in accounts receivable of $9,000 and a decrease in bonds payable of $22,000. What would be your cash provided by operating activities based on the provided information?

Write a report of 400-500 words.

/in /by

The purpose of this assignment is to demonstrate what you have learned about where and how professional communicators obtain information.

Reverse-engineer a news story (a factual story, not an opinion piece). In other words, find a published story (in print, on the internet, on radio or on TV) that shows evidence that the writer employed at least two different techniques of information gathering — such as interviewing and obtaining information from documents.

Write a report of 400-500 words. Give the headline or topic of the story, what publication, program or website it appeared in, and the date it was published. Briefly tell what the story is about and what types of information it includes.

But use at least 300 of your words to explain how you think the reporter got the story and to evaluate his or her techniques. In other words, put yourself in the place of the reporter. Tell what sources you think the reporter consulted to obtain the information used in the story, where the reporter might have found these sources, and how she might have obtained the information. (If it’s a well-written story, the sources should be identified in it.) Tell where you think the reporter succeeded and/or failed. How would you have handled the story differently?

You might want to telephone the reporter and ask how he or she obtained the information. Doing this is not a requirement, but it can raise your grade. If you do talk with the reporter, say so in your report. Attribute the information that the reporter provides to him or her. Directly quote the reporter.

Edit your report carefully. File it through Canvas. (If you send it as an attached file, be sure the file is compatible with Microsoft Word [a format such as .doc, .docx, .rtf or .txt]. The first word of the file name should be your last name.)

You will be graded on thoroughness, accuracy, how well you show that you understand the information-gathering techniques that might have been used, and how well you follow instructions. The quality and clarity of your writing will also affect your grade, as will correctness of spelling, grammar, punctuation and sentence structure. Write complete sentences.

This milestone establishes your chosen organization’s direction within
the market place. This is important because it drives the subsequent
activities, milestones and the final project. Without a strong sense of
the organization’s purpose within the market place, knowledge of
consumer trends, and how to meet target market needs at the appropriate
price, management is less likely to maximize the efficiency of business
activities and more likely to miss fully meeting the needs of its chosen
target market. This milestone establishes how the organization will
differentiate itself from its competition through branding with a unique
product or service offering designed to meet specific consumer needs or
desires that are shaped by their demographics, personality, or buying
style. Specifically, the following critical elements must be addressed SectionTwo: Branding and Idea Context
1.)Corporate mission and how the new product or service aligns with it
2.)Defining features of the product/service 3.)How the product will be
marketed internally and externally 4.)How the company is differentiating
from competition Alignment of pricing with market position and
corporate mission 5.)Your substantiated opinion of brand effectiveness

Section Three: Defining Product or Service Need For your idea,
1.)Behavioral and/or lifestyle demographics of the targeted consumer or
buying style of organizational buyer and why they are a good choice
2.)What unsatisfied need the product/service fulfills 3.)How the
customer/buyer seeks information to fill the need 4.)How the product is
purchased(characterize the buying situation) 5.)Why your chosen target
market is the best choice Section Six: Pricing

1.)
Explain the fixed and variable costs and how these fit with the
company’s short and long-term goals. 2.) Use a narrative with a table to
show calculations for cost categories. 3.) Provide reasonable estimates
for each of the categories. 4.)Specific or in-depth financial analysis
is not necessary. 5.)Examine competitors’ pricing and explain reasoning
for differences 6.)Estimate how much you think the target market is
willing to pay for your product/service. 7) Is this due to preferences
for social responsibility, ethical behavior or other intangibles 8.)What
pricing strategy (skimming, penetration, economy or premium) is most
appropriate and why?
