Your paper must 2- 3 pages long besides a cover page and a reference page. It should demonstrate a strong thesis statement supported by research from at least 3 scholarly sources. Both a references page and in text citations must be in APA format.

Part 1: Financial Acumen

Keeping abreast of the financial measures and metrics employed by a company allows employees to better understand its health and position at any given time. Using Campbellsville University library link or other libraries and the Internet:

1. Review at least three (3) articles on financial acuity. Summary the articles in 400 – 600 words. Use APAformatting throughout including in-text citations and references.

2. Discuss the benefits of establishing solid financial acumen in a company? Discuss your personal experiences in a situation where financial acumen was either not supported as an organizational hallmark or, conversely, was built into the company's culture.

Part 2: Sarbanes-Oxley (SOX)

Write a 200-word commentary on Sarbanes Oxley and the importance this act has for American businesses today. Your commentary should include the following:

A. Rationale for SOX
B. Provisions of SOX
C. Enforcement of SOX

Be very detailed. Show formulas that is used for your conclusions.

Give more than one examples. Show working step by step.

Explanation must excess 150 words.

Part A:

You have calculated the NPV and IRR for two investment projects based on the costs and cash flows, but you can only select the best one to choose between project A, and Project B. Based on the following data, which one will you select, and why?

Project A                     Project B

NPV: $10,000 $9,000

IRR: 9 % 12%

PART B:

If you invested in every stock listed on the New York Stock Exchange, would you be fully diversified? Would you have eliminated all the risks? Explain.

You must provide any in-text citations as per the APA guide. Failure to comply with the APA standard will cause a reduction in your grade.

Disorder At-a-Glance STEP 1: Pick one of the disorders you read about in this module and learn more about it in order to make a “At-a-Glance” page with details about the disorder. Visit the National Institute of Mental Health and search for the disorder, read through the information, then scroll to the section on “Research and Statistics” or “Journal Articles or Reports” to find helpful links to outside information. Look elsewhere as well for details about the prevalence, signs, symptoms, details, and research related to the disorder. Keep track of all of your sources as you investigate. STEP 2: In a format of your choosing (Microsoft Word, PowerPoint, etc.), create a 1 page visual that includes the following information about the disorder: Description Prevalence Causes and Risk Factors Recent Research (referencing at least 2 research articles) Either as a footnote on the same page, or on a separate page, include the citations in APA format

I apologize but this is one question that has multible parts .

There are currently (as of July 2018) 411 parts per million of CO2 in our atmosphere. In July 2000 the concentration of CO2 was 365 ppm. a) calculate the average exponential growth rate in this period b) at this growth rate what will the concentration of CO2 in the year 2100. A reasonable approximation of the amount of surface temperature (in degrees C) increase as related to CO2concentration is given by: ΔT = 0.8 * ΔF where for CO2 ΔF = 5.35 * LN(Cnow/Cbefore); Cbefore = 280 ppm Note that LN stands for the natural logarithm; for instance ln(10) = 2.32 (just type ln 10 in to Google) ΔF (what we call climate forcing) represents the change in flux due to changing CO2 levels and that determines ΔT c) Using the result obtained in Part b, what is the predicted temperature change in the year 2100 and is this prediction above or still below the Paris accord agreement of no more than 2C before 2100 above the pre-industrialized temperature? Over the last few years, CO2 growth is occurring at a larger rate than long term average. The following list gives you the necessary values to compute the relevant growth rates for the question below. Jan 1970 325 ppm Jan 1990 353 ppm Jan 2005 378 ppm Jan 2019 411 ppm d) Using the same calibration as above, calculate the exponential growth rate and predicted 2100 temperature from that growth rate for the periods 1970-1990 1990-2005 2005-2019 please explain step by step how you came to this answer. I would like to beable to do this myself in the future. thank you

Finding operating and free cash flows   Consider the balance sheets and selected data from the income statement of Keith Corporation that follow

Keith Corporation Balance Sheets

Income Statement Data

​(20192019​)

. a. Calculate the​ firm's net operating profit after taxes​ (NOPAT) for the year ended December​ 31, 20192019.

b. Calculate the​ firm's operating cash flow​ (OCF) for the year ended December​ 31, 20192019.

c. Calculate the​ firm's free cash flow​ (FCF) for the year ended December​ 31, 20192019.

d.​ Interpret, compare and contrast your cash flow estimate in parts​ (b) and​ (c). a. The net operating profit after taxes is ​$nothing. ​(Round to the nearest​ dollar.)

Instructions JAVA PROGRAMMING

1. Ask the user for a year input (positive integer - should be between 1500 and 2019, inclusive).

2. If the year input is not between 1500 and 2019, do not check for leap year, rather print that this year cannot be checked.

3. Take a year input from the user (should be between 1500 and 2019)

4. If the input year is a leap year, print that year is a leap year; otherwise, print that the year is not a leap year.

5. Point of thought: how will you handle centurial years, i.e., years ending in 00, e.g., 1900, 1800, 1700, 2000 etc.?

Goals

1. Gain experience in input taking using the scanner class in Java.
2. Gain experience in if/else selection statement in Java.

File/Project Naming

Your project/file should be named “Main.java”.

Test Your Program

• Once the code is typed, you will compile+run (execute) your code.
• You will input the year integer.
• See the output given by your code.

Sample Output

Your output should look like this:

• What year do you want to test? (make sure it's between 1500 and 2017): 1400

This year cannot be checked. Try again!

• What year do you want to test? (make sure it's between 1500 and 2017): 2018

   This year cannot be checked. Try again!

• What year do you want to test? (make sure it's between 1500 and 2017): 2016

• Yes, 2016 is a leap year!

• What year do you want to test? (make sure it's between 1500 and 2017): 1900

• Nope, 1900 is NOT a leap year!

Assume that Company A acquires 70% of Company for a cash price of $10 million when the share capital and reserves of Company B are:

Under which condition(s) would a strict welfare economist agree that an obese worker joining a workforce imposes externalities through group health insurance?

a. If an obese worker uses more health care than non-obese workers and premiums rise

b. If an obese worker gets sick and misses work more often and the non-obese workers have to pick up the slack working short-handed

c. If the fact of insurance coverage makes all workers, obese and non-obese alike, start eating more and exercising less so that all gain weight and premiums rise

d. If an obese worker joining the workforce makes a single worker less proud of their annual group picture
