Compute in excel

A college admission officer for an MBA program determines that historically candidates have undergraduate grade averages that are normally distributed with standard deviation of .45. A random sample of 25 applications from the current year yields a sample mean grade point average of 2.90. (i) Find a 95% confidence interval for the population mean, μ. (Round the boundaries to 2 decimal places.) (ii) Based on the same sample results, a statistician computes a confidence interval for the population mean as 2.81< μ < 2.99. Find the α for this interval and the probability content (1- α) as well. (Round to 4 digits.) (Note: the correct α is a higher number than traditional α used; so don’t worry if your number “looks” wrong!) Hint: first calculate α/2 using either the lower bound (2.81) or upper bound (2.99); then calculate α. Finally, calculate the probability content of the interval, which is (1- α). And make sure you use the standard error, not the standard deviation, to calculate α/2.

his questions comes under MBA 5005 in a question for a paper. Legal and Ethical Challenges in a Multinational Organization. identify potentional ethical issues and propose recommendations legal and ethical. have 10 part question and stuck on a few of these questions and Scenarios.

Scenarios 4: A Walexron employee, Lou Scannon, leaked the findings of the safety study to the public and a consumer watchdog group. In a press conference called by Scannon, Lou explanined the safety testing process for the Ranger Helicopter and results in details. Walexron hired Scannon as Director of Purchasing in 2012 and offered him a five year contract. In January 2013, Scannon verbally agreed to a confidentiality provision as an addition to his 5-year written employment contract.

Question: Is the Confidentiality provision within Scannon's employment contract valid?

You have just graduated from the MBA program of a large university, and one of your...

You have just graduated from the MBA program of a large university, and one of your favorite courses was “Today’s Entrepreneurs.” In fact, you enjoyed it so much you have decided you want to “be your own boss.” While you were in the master’s program, your grandfather died and left you $1.5 million to do with as you please. You are not an inventor, and you do not have a trade skill that you can market; however, you have decided that you would like to purchase at least one established franchise in the fast-foods area, maybe two (if profitable). The problem is that you have never been one to stay with any project for too long, so you figure that your time frame is 3 years. After 3 years you will go on to something else.

You have narrowed your selection down to two choices: (1) Franchise L, Lisa’s Soups, Salads & Stuff, and (2) Franchise S, Sam’s Fabulous Fried Chicken. The net cash flows shown below include the price you would receive for selling the franchise in Year 3 and the forecast of how each franchise will do over the 3-year period. Franchise L’s cash flows will start off slowly but will increase rather quickly as people become more health-conscious, while Franchise S’s cash flows will start off high but will trail off as other chicken competitors enter the marketplace and as people become more health-conscious and avoid fried foods. Franchise L serves breakfast and lunch whereas Franchise S serves only dinner, so it is possible for you to invest in both franchises. You see these franchises as perfect complements to one another: You could attract both the lunch and dinner crowds and the health-conscious and not- so-health-conscious crowds without the franchises directly competing against one another.

Here are the net cash flows (in thousands of dollars):

Franchise L:

Depreciation, salvage values, net working capital requirements, and tax effects are all included in these cash flows.

You also have made subjective risk assessments of each franchise and concluded that both franchises have risk characteristics that require a return of 12.5%. You must now determine whether one or both of the franchises should be accepted.

a.         (1) Define the term net present value (NPV). What is each franchise’s NPV?

(2) According to NPV, which franchise or franchises should be accepted if they are independent? Mutually exclusive?

(3) Would the NPVs change if the cost of capital changed to 10%?

b.         (1) Define the term internal rate of return (IRR). What is each franchise’s IRR?

(2) What is the logic behind the IRR method? According to IRR, which franchises should be accepted if they are independent? Mutually exclusive?

(3) Would the franchises’ IRRs change if the cost of capital changed to 10%?

c.         (1) Draw NPV profiles for Franchises L and S. At what discount rate do the profiles cross?

(2) Look at your NPV profile graph without referring to the actual NPVs and IRRs. Which franchise or franchises should be accepted if they are independent? Mutually exclusive? Explain. Are your answers correct at any cost of capital less than 23.6%?

d.         Define the term modified IRR (MIRR). Find the MIRRs for Franchises L and S.

e.         What does the profitability index (PI) measure? What are the PIs of Franchises S and L?

f.          (1) What is the payback period? Find the paybacks for Franchises L and S.

(2) According to the payback criterion, which franchise or franchises should be accepted if the firm’s maximum acceptable payback is 2 years and if Franchises L and S are independent? If they are mutually exclusive?

(3) What is the discounted payback periods for Franchise L and S?

g.         In an unrelated analysis, you have the opportunity to choose between the following two mutually exclusive projects, Project T (which lasts for 2 years) and Project F (which lasts for 4 years):

Expected Net Cash Flows:

Project T:

Year

3

4

The projects provide a necessary service, so whichever one is selected is expected to be repeated into the foreseeable future. Both projects have a 10% cost of capital.

(1) What is each project’s initial NPV without replication?

(2) What is each project’s equivalent annual annuity?

(3) Apply the replacement chain approach to determine the projects’ extended NPVs. Which project should be chosen?

(4) Assume that the cost to replicate Project T in 2 years will increase by 5% due to inflation. How should the analysis be handled now, and which project should be chosen?

Of critical importance when learning at the graduate level particularly in MBA programs is practical experience. Given the time constraints it is not easily feasible to invite guest speakers so the opportunity to conduct an interview becomes valuable.

In this class you will need to identify someone in an organization who is either responsible for or at least involved in the process of procurement (even if they only occasionally participate). Ideally, the type of procurements should be projects but if this is not feasible, other procurement types can be considered.

Assignment

1. Identify someone involved in procurement at an organization and indicate there position and the nature of the business. Students need to email me for approval giving the person’s position as it relates to procurement as well as the nature of the business (it is fine to maintain confidentiality).

2. Briefly present the nature of business at the organization.

3. Indicate the structure & process of procurements.

4. Conduct the interview indicating the length of time for the interview.

5. Determine relevant aspects of procurement according to what you have learned in lectures and from the two textbooks. (You should address key topics particularly as they relate to Project Procurement. (Insure in your report the sections of the interview related to course procurement topics).

6. Provide a critique of what is positive and negative about the results of the interview.

7. Submit the project assignment according to the announcement in made in class.

8. The paper should be 3-5 pages (single spaced).
