Time V alue of Money DQ 1

  ONLY A SHORT ANSWER:  The Eurozone has some countries with severe debt problems: Portugal, Ireland, Italy, Greece, and Spain (sometimes known as PIIGS). These Euro countries are looking for and have been assured of a \”bail-out\” process so that no one defaults on their debt.

National Security and the Constitution and Supreme Court Review

Discussion One Question:Examine how issues of national security influenced the constitutional debate on constitutional rights in the United States after September 11, 2001. Provide specific examples of the strengthening or weakening of individuals’ constitutional rights. It is recommended that your post contain approximately 400 words.: Undeniably, the political reaction to the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, allowed the federal government to limit individual liberties and ceded power to the executive branch (i.e., the president). Your specific examples of the limitations of people’s rights and the increased power to the executive should include an examination if these actions were necessary and appropriate. Were there less drastic measures which could have been taken that would have provided similar results for the protection of the country? Discussion Two Question:Analyze the ways in which a criminal case can get to the U.S. Supreme Court. Which cases must the Supreme Court review, and which cases do they have discretion on whether or not to render an opinion? What is the court’s discretionary jurisdiction called? It is recommended that your post contain approximately 400 words.: Very few cases be reviewed by the U.S. Supreme Court. Provide your opinion of whether or not more cases should be mandatorily reviewed by the nation’s higher court. One option the Court has is to let lower court cases stand. In essence, the Court may ignore reviewing a case because the Court either agrees with the lower court, or believes that the case is not “important enough for review.” Analyze whether or not this is the best legal standard for review.

Module 1 Case time value of Money

          The time value of money is an important, fundamental concept in finance. Time value of money refers to present value and future value. It is used in various areas of finance, including capital budgeting, bond valuation, and stock valuation. It is very important that you understand the time value of money so that you are prepared to study more advanced topics in the future. Time lines are important to understand future value and present value problems. If you are having difficulty understanding a time value of money problem, start with a time line. With an annuity due, the cash flows at the beginning of the period. With an ordinary annuity, the cash flows occur at the end of the period. If an annuity problem doesn’t state if the cash flows occur at the beginning or the end of the period, by default the cash flows occur at the end of the period. When cash flows continue on forever, they are known as perpetuities. To find the present value of a perpetuity, you simply divide the cash flow by the discount rate in decimal notation.Review these videos that focus on the time value of money:. (n.d.).

Securities analysts recommend to portfolio managers what stocks should be bought and sold. Financial statement analysis involves analyzing various financial ratios for a company over time and comparing those to the appropriate industry average. For example, it is important for a company’s ROE to be increasing over time and greater than the industry average. Although it’s very important for a firm to have strong liquidity, it’s a negative sign if a firm’s quick or current ratios are excessively high. There are five main categories of ratios: liquidity, asset management, debt management, profitability, and market value. JohnFinance (2014). Debt-to-Equity Ratio. Retrieved  from JohnFinance (2014).

Using the CPG and other sources, conduct whatever research is necessary to understand scenario-based, function-based, and capabilities-based planning approaches. To understand the strengths/weaknesses/opportunities/threats (SWOT) analysis planning approach, use any explanatory source that you find, readily available via the Internet. To fully understand all of these approaches, you will need to research other sources to aid you in engaging in the discussion below; find and reference at least three additional resources that you used and explain what value they added to your understanding.

Discussion 6 Fiction Literature

(1) Post at least one substantive response, of at least 100 words, to each of the study questions in the threads listed here. A substantive response is a knowledgeable, thoughtful, creative contribution to the understanding of narrative theory and textual interpretation. It should demonstrate good reading comprehension of the assigned critical theory and work of fiction. It should also engage in dialog with previous comments. Therefore, before responding to the study questions read through any highlighted sections from prior student posts as well as any follow up posts from the instructor. If the study question has already been answered satisfactorily, students should address one of the instructor\’s follow up questions instead. The objective is to keep the conversation moving and avoid repetitive answers. Ideally, each comment should add something new to the conversation. Responses should be supported with direct, specific references to the assigned texts. Quotation (with parenthetical page citation) is encouraged and will be useful prep for the interpretive essays.

(2) In addition to the primary posts on each question, you must also respond within one class day to instructor requests for clarification or elaboration, if asked by name to do so. In general, my feedback on discussion posts will be directed at all students, regardless of who made the original post. However, if I address you directly with a question or directive, I expect a timely response. Make sure to check back regularly for both general and individual feedback. Subscribing and turning on notifications for the discussion forums can help you keep track of responses to your posts.

(3) Further, you must also provide a secondary response of at least 50 words for each question addressing the post of another student. This secondary post can respectfully agree or disagree with previous comments as long as a clear rationale is provided; it can also supplement them with additional textual evidence.

The requirement to respond to my feedback and other students\’ posts means that you will need to visit each thread at least twice. You will likely want to return to these threads at the end of the semester as well in order to prepare for the final exam. Pay close attention to my feedback on ALL posts because I may be making important corrections or clarifications as well as highlighting particularly strong answers. In the interests of keeping the discussion streamlined I am only going to respond to any particular issue the first time it arises rather than every time. Therefore, do not assume that ia post without an specific reply has no feedback; it may be that the relevant feedback was already given on a prior post. Within the threads, a selection of strong, convincing statements will be highlighted in blue; a selection of potentially problematic or controversial statements will be highlighted in red for further consideration.

I will upload the reading material and the questions to be answer, please follow the instructions as indicated
