Report Writing

Select any publicly listed Saudi Company that operates in GCC, and write a (minimum of 1000 word) report covering the following points:  

(Marks: 10)

1. Present the study report with clear Introduction and Conclusion including your own views.  

2. Using SWOT analysis, analyze the external and internal environment of your selected company.  

3. Analyze the political, economic, cultural and legal challenges the company currently faces in any of the country it operates (select one country in which the company operates for this analysis).

APA style refrences is important

1. Calculate the z-scores (to two decimal places) for each observation and write the answers in the last column on the table above.
2. According to Chebyshev’s Theorem, what percentage of the observations should be within 1 standard deviations of the mean? (Hint: be sure to word your answer correctly.) For this question, you do not need to use any data—this is a purely theoretical question asking what Chebyshev predicts for this situation.

• Use strategies to locate, identify, and describe new ideas.
• Identify problems or issues that need a new solution.

Instructions

For the first four units of the course you will maintain an “idea journal”.

1. The journal can be a word file or whatever format is most suitable to you and agreed upon by the instructor.
2. The ideas will come from virtually anywhere. Look at situations that interest you and try to identify what problems may exist while thinking about how you might improve upon how things are done currently.
3. Each idea should be accompanied by a problem and how you can solve the problem or at least improve upon the current situation.
4. Try to come up with ideas that are possible based upon your experience and resources.
5. Developing a new rocket booster for space travel is not what I’m looking for.
6. Try to have a wide range of ideas. The assignment will be evaluated on the number of ideas, the diversity/flexibility of the ideas, and how clearly you articulate each idea.
7. You must submit the journal for review by the instructor at the end of Unit 4. When submitted, your journal must include no fewer than ten entrepreneurial ideas to get top marks.
8. Your ideas should be thoroughly outlined in an MS Word compatible format.
9. Submit your journal through electronic submission.
10. Students must present a minimum of 10 well-supported ideas.

Your boss wants you to provide an evaluation of the following in a PowerPoint: (I don't need this in powerpoint format but if you can help with information for each bullet point I would appreciate it, and maybe even help with the speaker notes for each slide. Thank you in advance!)

- Proprietorship, partnership, corporation, charter, and bylaws

- Limited Partnership, limited liability partnership, and professional corporation

- Stockholder wealth maximize market, and capital market maximization

- Money market, capital market, primary market, and secondary market

- Private market, public market, and derivatives

- Open outcry auction and dealer market automated trading platform

- Production opportunities and time preferences for consumption

- Foreign trade deficit

Your target audience should be your direct supervisor or management team. Explain each of these topics in broad terms.

Please provide a Word document with “speaker notes” for each slide. The speaker notes may be comprised of brief paragraph or bulleted lists. Clearly mark the Word document with correct header to your PowerPoint.

Support your presentation with scholarly resources. In addition to these specified resources, other appropriate scholarly resources may be included. Be sure to include citations for quotations and paraphrases with references in APA format

Note: You need to show your work. If you choose to use Excel for your calculations, be sure to upload your well-documented Excel and to make note in this file how you arrived at your answers. If you choose to do the work by hand, Microsoft Word has an equation editor. Go to “Insert” and “Equation” on newer versions of Word. On older versions, go to “Insert” and “Object” and “Microsoft Equation.”

Chapter 9 Reflection:

Annual expenditures for prescription drugs was $838 per person in the Northeast of the country. A sample of 60 individuals in the Midwest showed a per person annual expenditure for prescription drugs of $745. Suppose the population standard deviation is $300. Follow the steps below to develop a hypothesis test to determine whether the sample data support the conclusion that the population annual expenditure for prescription drugs per person is lower in the Midwest than in the Northeast.

1. Formulate the null and alternative hypotheses. State whether this is a one-tailed test (and if so, upper or lower tail) or a two-tailed test.
2. Suppose the significance level is . Explain what this means.
3. Calculate the test statistic. (Hint: Is known or unknown?)
4. Calculate the p-value and make a decision to either reject or to fail to reject .
5. Calculate the critical value(s). Use the test statistic then to make a decision to either reject or to fail to reject .
6. State what your decision means in the context of the problem (prescription expenditure in the Midwest vs. the Northeast).

Part 7

Assume the following information for an economy:

Natural level of output = $190b

Autonomous consumption = 50

Total investment = 16

Government expenditure = 19

Autonomous taxation = 20

Marginal propensity to consume = 0.6

Based on this information answer the following questions:

a) Calculate the actual equilibrium level of output for this economy.

b) Calculate the output ratio for the economy.

c) Using the Phillips Curve illustrate the current approximate position for the economy and identify this as point A.

d) Assume the government increased spending by $5b. Calculate what the new equilibrium level of output will be.

e) As a result of d) indicate how this will likely impact the economy using the Phillips Curve model from c). Label the new position the economy will approximately be at as point B.

f) Discuss whether the government actions in d) are consistent with the objectives of economic stablisation. Include within your discussion reference to what the goals and objectives of economic stabilisation entail.

At the end of your answer to Part 7 state the word count for sub-part f. Your answer to Part 7 sub-part f should not exceed 100 words.

(1 mark each for sub-parts a and b, 1.75 marks for sub-part c, 1.5 marks for sub-part d, 0.75 marks for sub-part e and 2 marks for sub-part f plus 0.25 marks for satisfying the word count requirements - Part 7 worth 8.25 marks)

Throughout this course, many discussion opportunities come up where you need to respond to other people's opinions and comments. Then, respond to your Discussion topic after you have completed your Reading.

Candie, CARDWARE’s model, advertised a one-of-a-kind black and white llama sweater that had an iPod slot on the inside left panel. The ad was placed online and read as follows:

FOR SALE:

One-of-a-kind black and white llama sweater as modeled by Candie Cardware. Worn only once in Barcelona’s Fashionista Extravaganza Fashion Show.

Includes iPod. $450. Free shipping. Contact me if interested at CCmodeling.com.

For some reason, the word “slot” that was to follow the word iPod and was cut off of the ad. Delilah saw the ad and thought, “Wow what a bargain! A one-of-a-kind Candie Cardware sweater and an iPod for $450 is something that cannot be beat.” Delilah immediately emailed her reply to Candie as follows: “What a great buy! I’ll take it. Please make sure the iPod is securely wrapped. Let’s meet so I can give you the amount of purchase in cash.” [Signed Delilah] Candie replied to Delilah, “I’m sorry there is no iPod with the sweater. It was supposed to be iPod slot.” [Signed Candie]
