This is a product you’ve wanted for a while, but one…

[Pin It]

You’ve been debating on making a purchase for yourself. This is a product you’ve wanted for a while, but one that requires budgeting because you will be making monthly payments.

Select a product in which the demand for the product is clearly affected by the strength or weakness of the overall economy such as new homes, cars, appliances, smart phones, etc.

Write a 1,050- to 1,400-word paper in which you address the following:

Identify and define two economic indicators that reflect the strength of the economy (e.g. real GDP, unemployment rate, inflation rate, interest rate, housing starts, etc.).
With these economic indicators in mind, how has the economy affected the demand for and supply of your selected product over the last 2 years?
What was the impact on the supply of the product and the impact on the demand for the product?
Explain the impact on the price of the product and your decision on whether or not to buy the product.
Include responses to the following:
How might you apply what you learned about supply and demand to your work place or your understanding of the product you are considering purchasing?
How do the concepts of macroeconomics help you understand the factors that affect shifts in supply and demand on the price of the product?

Has the social determinant you chose for this Discussion impacted how you, a friend, or a family member received health care in the past?

The factors that determine your health are multifaceted, ranging from age, sex, and genetic makeup to socioeconomic, cultural, and environmental conditions. This week’s Discussion will give you the opportunity to explore these factors further.

To prepare review the weekly readings on social determinants of health and then visit the Healthy People 2020 website (http://www.healthypeople.gov.) Explore the Leading Health Indicators described on the Healthy People website. Then, select one social determinant and one Leading Health Indicator to analyze for this week’s Discussion.

post a comprehensive response to the following questions as they relate to your selected determinant and Leading Health Indicator. Be sure to identify the determinant in the beginning of your posting to your peers.

In what ways can your select social determinant influence one of the Leading Health Indicators described on the HealthyPeople.gov site? For example, if you choose the Leading Indicator of oral health care, how might the social determinant of socio-economic status impact one’s oral health?
How do you know this? Summarize the evidence through effective paraphrasing and reference your sources at the end of your post.
Has the social determinant you chose for this Discussion impacted how you, a friend, or a family member received health care in the past? What was the impact?

Note: Before you post your written response, review the Writing and Library Skills Resource Guide for information pertaining to searching the Walden library databases, effective paraphrasing, using evidence to support written statements, and preparing a reference list. Apply what you’ve learned about paraphrasing and demonstrate your ability to summarize content from the readings in your own words. Also, practice supporting your statements with your readings for this week. Provide a list of references at the end of your post.

Explain the significance of the company’s ratios when compared to industry averages.

For this assignment, you will complete the Financial Overview component of your course project. To complete this assignment, use the Financial Analysis Toolkit Excel file, provided in the Resources, to complete a financial analysis of your chosen company over the last two most recent years available in annual reports. Replace the numbers provided in the Excel file with the appropriate numbers for your firm. Then, write a 2–3 page financial analysis of your company, addressing the following elements:

Identify your company, its industry, and analyze the important segments (percentage of sales or subsidiaries) of your company compared to its industry and its overall business.
Perform a complete financial analysis of your chosen company’s financial statements—horizontal, vertical (Percentage of Sales and Common-Size), and changes in ratios—for the last two years.
Compare all ratios to industry averages. Evaluate the company’s ratios against the industry averages.
Explain the significance of the company’s ratios when compared to industry averages.
Analyze the company’s cash flows.
Assess the overall financial health of your company based on this financial analysis.

A great way to integrate your completed calculations from your Excel sheet into your written analysis is to paste pieces of the worksheet directly into your Word document. You are also encouraged to create graphs or charts from the data that may illustrate your analyses as well.
