Your name: Company Name: Comparative Ratio Analysis These are the ratios I want you to do and the format I want them completed in. If you have problems using this form please feel free to create your own. Remember to refer to the Decision Analysis in each chapter to help you complete the analysis portion of the sheet. Also, remember the accounts that are included in each ratio and address how they may have changed from year to year especially if the ratio has changed substantially. Then make recommendations as to how managers might address any issues they might find. This ratio analysis is grouped into three sections: Liquidity Ratios, Profitability Ratios, and Market Ratios. Unlike the assignments in the individual chapters, for this assignment you will analyze the company from these three perspectives taking into account all the ratios included in that each particular group. In the real world you would compare these ratios to a market standard found in the RMA or another publication however, access to these on-line cost money. In the classroom we used the RMA from our campus libraries. So the best we can do here is compare one year to the next. This is a sophomore level college class and the assignment is worth 100 Points so you will be expected to put some effort into this analysis. The Financial Statement Analysis that goes with this assignment can be found in another file called Stmt Analysis File. Together they will be worth 100 Points. You might want to complete that file first as it may provide some insight into what is going in the accounts for this ratio analysis. Year? Year ? Liquidity Ratios: a. Working Capital: b.

Calculating the Weighted Average Cost of Capital (WACC)
for your Company
For use in Conjunction with the Firm Valuation Project
First ensure that you have read relevant pages in the text. Some important sections would include the following, but you may also double-check the references in the text by using the index [see: Cost of Capital and Target (optimal) Capital Structure, etc.]:
The important Chapter in the text is the one entitled "The Cost of Capital," – with a particular focus on the section entitled “The Weighted Average Cost of Capital” and the section “Four Mistakes to Avoid” at the end of the chapter.
The WACC formula discussed below does not include Preferred Stock. Should your company use PS, be sure to adjust the equation for it, and see the section in the chapter on the Cost of Preferred Stock.
The WACC formula that we use is:
WACC = wdrd(1-T) + wsrs
We need to know how to calculate:
1. rsthe cost of common equity. Use the Security Market Line (SML) – this is why you learn how to calculate a company’s beta and also why you learn how to find the appropriate risk-free rate and market-risk premium. For a review, see the section the text, The CAPM Approach.
2. The weights (wd and ws – note that: wd + ws = 1; so you only have to calculate one of them). We need to calculate the weight of debt and the weight of equity (for the cost of debt, this simply means: what proportion of the firm’s financing is by debt?). There is a lot to say here, simplified as Theory 1, Theory 2 and Practice:
a. Theory 1: Theory says that we should use the target weights along with the market values of both debt and equity (see the Four Mistakes to Avoid). But the market value of debt is typically difficult to calculate, because we need to know the YTM (which is rd) for all of the company’s debt, but we cannot calculate the YTM without having the current prices of the company’s outstanding bonds, and most company’s bonds do not trade (i.e., they will not have up-to-date or current prices – remember how to calculate the price (value) of a bond on your calculators?!). As a result, at least for the group project, we go to Theory 2.
b. Theory 2: Theory also says that we should use the TARGET weights, but this is a management decision, and as “outsiders” we do not have access to the thoughts of the CFO or CEO. So we should look instead to the historical pattern of the use of debt (mix of debt and equity), and this is one reason that you should have about 10 years of financial data.
c. Practice: Since we cannot “work” according to the strict theory of finance, we have to estimate the relevant weights. As a result, we will use the formula:
wd = Book Value of Debt / [Market Value of Equity + Book Value of Debt]
The book value of debt is calculated by adding up ALL of the debt on the balance sheet. This will typically be the sum of Notes Payable, Current Portion of LT Debt and Long-Term Debt.

Categories of Financial Ratios
Liquidity Ratio – It analyzes a company’s ability to pay its liabilities both current and long-term liabilities. It measures a company’s cash levels and ability to convert assets into cash. The quick ratio measures the company’s ability to pay its current debts with quick assets (convertible to cash within 90 days). The current ratio measures a company’s ability to use current assets to pay current liabilities (Basu, 2018). The time interest earned ratio measures a company’s amount of income to cover future interest expenses.
Solvency Ratio – It indicates a company’s financial stability or ability to sustain operations in the long term since it measures debt relative to equity and assets. The debt to equity ratio is the difference between total assets of a company and its total liabilities (Basu, 2018). The equity ratio measures a company’s assets owned by investors by comparing total equity of the firm to its total assets. The debt ratio indicates the amount of assets a company must sell to pay its liabilities.
Profitability Ratio – It indicates the ability of a firm’s management to convert sales into cash flow and profits. The gross profit ratio measures the percentage of sales after pay a company’s expenses (Basu, 2018). The return on assets ratio (ROA) measures a company’s ability to manage assets to generate profits. The return on equity (ROE) measures a company’s ability to generate profits from investments of shareholders or stockholder’s equity (Tracy, 2012).
Calculations
Liquidity Ratios - Amazon (2017)
Current Ratio = Current Assets/ Current Liabilities
= 60,197/ 57,883
= 1.04
Quick ratio = Total quick assets/Current liabilities
= 40,678/57883
= 0.7
Solvency Ratio - Google Company (2017)
Debt to Equity ratio = Total debt/ Stockholder’s equity
= 3,969/152,502
= 0.03
Profitability Ratio – Apple Inc (2017)
Gross profit ratio = 100 x Gross margin/ Net sales
= 100 x 88,186/ 229,234
= 38.5%
Return on assets ratio (ROA) = 100 x Net income/ Total assets
= 100 x 48,351/375,319

Financial and Managerial Accounting Note
This document provides an overview of financial statement analysis. It discusses the different types of financial statement analysis including horizontal analysis, vertical analysis, comparative statement analysis, trend analysis, common size analysis, funds flow analysis, cash flow statement analysis, and ratio analysis. It outlines the different ratios used in financial analysis including liquidity ratios, activity ratios, solvency/leverage ratios, and profitability ratios. It also discusses the different users of financial statement analysis and their interests including lenders, shareholders/investors, employees, regulatory agencies, and management.
Financial Ratios
Financial ratios can provide useful indicators of a firm's performance and financial situation by analyzing information from financial statements. Ratios can be used to analyze trends over time and compare a firm to others. In some cases, ratio analysis can even predict future bankruptcy. There are various types of ratios that provide different insights, such as liquidity ratios regarding short-term assets/liabilities, asset turnover ratios about efficiency, and financial leverage ratios concerning use of debt. Limitations include that ratios can be manipulated and firms have different accounting policies, risk profiles, and industries/seasons that affect comparability.

The Balance Sheet and Credit Risk Analysis
Credit risk encompasses a company’s ability to meet its obligations as they arise as well as a long-run ability to pay its debt. A company may be profitable but yet face bankruptcy if it is unable to pay its liabilities on time. Companies with large amounts of debt have greater credit risk because of an increased vulnerability to increases in interest rates and declines in profitability.
In this assignment, you will answer questions about your company’s classified balance sheet and conduct a ratio analysis to evaluate the company’s liquidity and solvency. A financial ratio expresses the relationship of one amount to another and enables analysts to quickly assess a company’s financial strength, profitability, or other aspects of its financial activities.
Requirements
In the first section, define liabilities and describe how liabilities are classified as current and long-term (give examples). Also define liquidity and solvency as it relates to the company’s debt-paying ability. What does your company call its ‘Balance Sheet’?
In the second section, define working capital, the current ratio, and the debt ratio, three frequently used ratios to assess credit risk (described in LEO’s online text or any principles of accounting text). Identify which are a measure of liquidity and which are a measure of solvency. Indicate how the ratio is interpreted. Is an increasing or decreasing ratio a favorable trend? Conduct online research to provide a ratio level (or range) that is considered acceptable for the current and debt ratio (technically, working capital is not a ratio so an average isn’t meaningful). If you can find information on acceptable ranges for the current ratio and debt ratio for your company’s industry, include that in your discussion. Numbers and ratios are more meaningful when considered relative to a benchmark. Benchmarks can be the company’s past performance, a similar company’s performance, an industry average, or a rule-of- thumb. For instance, for decades, a current ratio of 2 to 1 was considered satisfactory.
In the third section, prepare a table giving the dollar amount of current and long-term liabilities for the most recent year and the previous year. Either in the same table or a new table report the results of a ratio analysis. Calculate working capital, current ratio, and the debt ratio for the current year and the past year (show your calculations). Indicate whether the ratios are improving or deteriorating. If you find a relevant benchmark (industry average or rule-of-thumb), comment on your company’s performance relative to the benchmark.
Finally, in the fourth section briefly summarize results of any or all of the following: 1) an internet search for articles on recent events that may affect your company’s debt paying ability, 2) an internet search for financial analysts’ assessment of the company’s credit risk and or.

Financial and Managerial Accounting Note
This document provides an overview of financial statement analysis. It discusses the different types of financial statement analysis including horizontal analysis, vertical analysis, comparative statement analysis, trend analysis, common size analysis, funds flow analysis, cash flow statement analysis, and ratio analysis. It outlines the different ratios used in financial analysis including liquidity ratios, activity ratios, solvency/leverage ratios, and profitability ratios. It also discusses the different users of financial statement analysis and their interests including lenders, shareholders/investors, employees, regulatory agencies, and management.
Financial Ratios
Financial ratios can provide useful indicators of a firm's performance and financial situation by analyzing information from financial statements. Ratios can be used to analyze trends over time and compare a firm to others. In some cases, ratio analysis can even predict future bankruptcy. There are various types of ratios that provide different insights, such as liquidity ratios regarding short-term assets/liabilities, asset turnover ratios about efficiency, and financial leverage ratios concerning use of debt. Limitations include that ratios can be manipulated and firms have different accounting policies, risk profiles, and industries/seasons that affect comparability.

The Balance Sheet and Credit Risk Analysis
Credit risk encompasses a company’s ability to meet its obligations as they arise as well as a long-run ability to pay its debt. A company may be profitable but yet face bankruptcy if it is unable to pay its liabilities on time. Companies with large amounts of debt have greater credit risk because of an increased vulnerability to increases in interest rates and declines in profitability.
In this assignment, you will answer questions about your company’s classified balance sheet and conduct a ratio analysis to evaluate the company’s liquidity and solvency. A financial ratio expresses the relationship of one amount to another and enables analysts to quickly assess a company’s financial strength, profitability, or other aspects of its financial activities.
Requirements
In the first section, define liabilities and describe how liabilities are classified as current and long-term (give examples). Also define liquidity and solvency as it relates to the company’s debt-paying ability. What does your company call its ‘Balance Sheet’?
In the second section, define working capital, the current ratio, and the debt ratio, three frequently used ratios to assess credit risk (described in LEO’s online text or any principles of accounting text). Identify which are a measure of liquidity and which are a measure of solvency. Indicate how the ratio is interpreted. Is an increasing or decreasing ratio a favorable trend? Conduct online research to provide a ratio level (or range) that is considered acceptable for the current and debt ratio (technically, working capital is not a ratio so an average isn’t meaningful). If you can find information on acceptable ranges for the current ratio and debt ratio for your company’s industry, include that in your discussion. Numbers and ratios are more meaningful when considered relative to a benchmark. Benchmarks can be the company’s past performance, a similar company’s performance, an industry average, or a rule-of- thumb. For instance, for decades, a current ratio of 2 to 1 was considered satisfactory.
In the third section, prepare a table giving the dollar amount of current and long-term liabilities for the most recent year and the previous year. Either in the same table or a new table report the results of a ratio analysis. Calculate working capital, current ratio, and the debt ratio for the current year and the past year (show your calculations). Indicate whether the ratios are improving or deteriorating. If you find a relevant benchmark (industry average or rule-of-thumb), comment on your company’s performance relative to the benchmark.
Finally, in the fourth section briefly summarize results of any or all of the following: 1) an internet search for articles on recent events that may affect your company’s debt paying ability, 2) an internet search for financial analysts’ assessment of the company’s credit risk and or.

The main ideology behind the conception of ERM is to help companie.docx
The main ideology behind the conception of ERM is to help companies proactively identify, analyze and manage risks and events that have the capability of impacting the business. Developing a collaborative response is crucial is possible when early identification of risk is achieved. Changes in the business environment require sound judgment in anticipating both the consequences of the particular event and the potential likelihood.
The research conducted illustrates that the difficulty is intensified because the company should be innovative and adaptive, a feature that lacks in many corporations. Following the implementation in different companies, the primary challenge posed is locating the respective area in the company where its potentiality is more enhanced. The transition has been implemented from the traditional leadership function to the various levels of operation.
One of the crucial insights obtained from the interaction with companies adopting the ERM system indicates that the change is effective especially if used in a suitable context. The funds in implementing the system may pose a challenge, however, in such a situation, a counter project can be carried out in regards to the nature of the company. So, upon implementation, the ERM program progresses from its initial establishment to a sophisticated program with prolonged use.
ERM is regarded as a complete approach and as a result, leaders can trust the program as a comprehensive approach to risk management. The plan is meant to scratch through a broad range of operational threats in the internal and external environment of the company that could impact its short term and long-term success. In conclusion, the general conclusion is right; it is true to say that ERM has enabled the provision that is crucial in fulfilling and excelling in leadership mandate.

Ratio Analysis
1 | P a g e
Introduction
A sustainable business and mission requires effective planning and financial
management. Ratio analysis is a useful management tool that will improve your
understanding of financial results and trends over time, and provide key indicators of
organizational performance. Managers will use ratio analysis to pinpoint strengths
and weaknesses from which strategies and initiatives can be formed. Funders may use
ratio analysis to measure your results against other organizations or make judgments
concerning management effectiveness and mission impact
For ratios to be useful and meaningful, they must be:
o Calculated using reliable, accurate financial information (does your financial
information reflect your true cost picture?)
o Calculated consistently from period to period
o Used in comparison to internal benchmarks and goals
o Used in comparison to other companies in your industry
o Viewed both at a single point in time and as an indication of broad trends and
issues over time
o Carefully interpreted in the proper context, considering there are many other
important factors and indicators involved in assessing performance.
Ratios can be divided into four major categories:
o Profitability Sustainability
o Operational Efficiency
o Liquidity
o Leverage (Funding – Debt, Equity, Grants)
The ratios presented below represent some of the standard ratios used in business
practice and are provided as guidelines. Not all these ratios will provide the
information you need to support your particular decisions and strategies. You can also
develop your own ratios and indicators based on what you consider important and
meaningful to your organization and stakeholders.

Financial management
Ratio analysis is used to evaluate the financial performance and health of a business. Ratios show the mathematical relationship between two related figures and can be used for trend analysis and comparisons between firms. There are several types of ratios including liquidity ratios that measure short-term financial strength, activity/turnover ratios that measure efficiency, and profitability ratios. Current ratio, quick ratio, and inventory turnover ratio are some examples discussed. Ratios should be interpreted both individually and in comparison to past ratios and industry standards to evaluate performance over time.

Ratio analysis - Introduction
Financial ratios are created with the use of numerical values taken from financial statements to gain meaningful information about a company. The numbers found on a company’s financial statements – balance sheet, income statement, and cash flow statement – are used to perform quantitative analysis and assess a company’s liquidity, leverage, growth, margins, profitability, rates of return, valuation, and more.
Modes of Expression of Ratios:
Ratios may be expressed in any one or more of the following ways:
(a) Proportion,
(b) Rate or times
(c) Percentage.
Advantages of Ratio Analysis:
The information shown in financial statements does not signify anything individually because the facts shown are inter-related. Hence it is necessary to establish relationships between various items to reveal significant details and throw light on all notable financial and operational aspects. Ratio analysis caters to the needs of various parties interested in financial statements. The basic objective of ratio analysis is to help management in interpretation of financial statements to enable it to perform the managerial functions efficiently.
Limitations of Ratio Analysis:
Ratios are precious tools in the hands of management but the utility lies in the proper utilisation of ratios. Mishandling or misuse of ratios and using them without proper context may lead the management to a wrong direction. The financial analyst should be well versed in computing ratios and proper utilization of ratios. Like all techniques of control, ratio analysis also suffers from several ‘ifs and buts’ and for proper computation and utilization of ratios the analyst should be aware of the limitations of ratio analysis.
Uses and Users of Financial Ratio Analysis
Analysis of financial ratios serves two main purposes:
1. Track company performance
Determining individual financial ratios per period and tracking the change in their values over time is done to spot trends that may be developing in a company. For example, an increasing debt-to-asset ratio may indicate that a company is overburdened with debt and may eventually be facing default risk.
2. Make comparative judgments regarding company performance
Comparing financial ratios with that of major competitors is done to identify whether a company is performing better or worse than the industry average. For example, comparing the return on assets between companies helps an analyst or investor to determine which company is making the most efficient use of its assets.
Users of financial ratios include parties external and internal to the company:
External users: Financial analysts, retail investors, creditors, competitors, tax authorities, regulatory authorities, and industry observers
Internal users: Management team, employees, and owners
Financial analysis techniques
Common size statements normalize financial data to allow for easier comparison across companies and time periods. They express balance sheet items as a percentage of total assets and income statement items as a percentage of sales. Comparing the common size statements of Companies A, B, and C shows that while Company A has the smallest sales, it has the highest net income ratio at 18%. Company C has the lowest cost of goods sold ratio, indicating it has been able to lower production costs through higher R&D spending than Company B. The effective tax rate for all three companies is 40%, providing a more meaningful comparison than the common size tax expense percentages alone.

Calculating theWeighted Average Cost of Capital (WACC)
foryour Company
For use in Conjunction with the Firm Valuation Project
First ensure that you have read relevant pages in the text. Some important sections would include the following, but you may also double-check the references in the text by using the index [see: Cost of Capital and Target (optimal) Capital Structure, etc.]:
The important Chapter in the text is the one entitled "The Cost of Capital," – with a particular focus on the section entitled “The Weighted Average Cost of Capital” and the section “Four Mistakes to Avoid” at the end of the chapter.
The WACC formula discussed below does not include Preferred Stock. Should your company use PS, be sure to adjust the equation for it, and see the section in the chapter on the Cost of Preferred Stock.
The WACC formula that we use is:
WACC = wdrd(1-T) + wsrs
We need to know how to calculate:
1. rsthe cost of common equity. Use the Security Market Line (SML) – this is why you learn how to calculate a company’s beta and also why you learn how to find the appropriate risk-free rate and market-risk premium. For a review, see the section the text, The CAPM Approach.
2. The weights (wd and ws – note that: wd + ws = 1; so you only have to calculate one of them). We need to calculate the weight of debt and the weight of equity (for the cost of debt, this simply means: what proportion of the firm’s financing is by debt?). There is a lot to say here, simplified as Theory 1, Theory 2 and Practice:
a. Theory 1: Theory says that we should use the target weights along with the market values of both debt and equity (see the Four Mistakes to Avoid). But the market value of debt is typically difficult to calculate, because we need to know the YTM (which is rd) for all of the company’s debt, but we cannot calculate the YTM without having the current prices of the company’s outstanding bonds, and most company’s bonds do not trade (i.e., they will not have up-to-date or current prices – remember how to calculate the price (value) of a bond on your calculators?!). As a result, at least for the group project, we go to Theory 2.
b. Theory 2: Theory also says that we should use the TARGET weights, but this is a management decision, and as “outsiders” we do not have access to the thoughts of the CFO or CEO. So we should look instead to the historical pattern of the use of debt (mix of debt and equity), and this is one reason that you should have about 10 years of financial data.
c. Practice: Since we cannot “work” according to the strict theory of finance, we have to estimate the relevant weights. As a result, we will use the formula:
wd = Book Value of Debt / [Market Value of Equity + Book Value of Debt]
The book value of debt is calculated by adding up ALL of the debt on the balance sheet. This will typically be the sum of Notes Payable, Current Por ...

Assignment 3 Neuroanatomy ProjectImagine that you are working in .docx
Assignment 3: Neuroanatomy Project
Imagine that you are working in a neurology clinic. One of the neurologists tells you that as her practice is expanding, she is having difficulty meeting the education needs of her patients. Part of this problem is explaining the basic neuroanatomical structures to the patients in layperson’s language so that they understand their diagnoses and their underlying neurological impairment. The neurologist asks you to create a written guide for the patients, including both the CNS and PNS. She describes what the basic neuroanatomical structures are, where they are located, how they interact, and what function they serve.
She asks you to name the structures by using the correct technical language but to use layperson’s language as much as possible elsewhere.
Your "Neuroanatomy Guide" should cover the following:
Basic neuroanatomical structures (including the CNS and PNS, as well as the structural packaging that protects the brain from the environment)
Locations of these structures
Functions they serve (what functions damage to this area may affect)
How they interact
Be sure to explain the information in layperson’s language, and use graphics and pictures where helpful. Use APA format when citing material from scholarly sources such as your textbook and online notes. Include a cover page and a reference page listing the resources you used to create your guide.

Solvency ratios indicate a company's long-term debt obligations and profitability ratios measure how profitable a company is. The document also discusses evaluating earnings power, comparative statement analysis, and the limitations of ratio analysis.
The main ideology behind the conception of ERM is to help companie.docx
The main ideology behind the conception of ERM is to help companies proactively identify, analyze and manage risks and events that have the capability of impacting the business. Developing a collaborative response is crucial is possible when early identification of risk is achieved. Changes in the business environment require sound judgment in anticipating both the consequences of the particular event and the potential likelihood.
The research conducted illustrates that the difficulty is intensified because the company should be innovative and adaptive, a feature that lacks in many corporations. Following the implementation in different companies, the primary challenge posed is locating the respective area in the company where its potentiality is more enhanced. The transition has been implemented from the traditional leadership function to the various levels of operation.
One of the crucial insights obtained from the interaction with companies adopting the ERM system indicates that the change is effective especially if used in a suitable context. The funds in implementing the system may pose a challenge, however, in such a situation, a counter project can be carried out in regards to the nature of the company. So, upon implementation, the ERM program progresses from its initial establishment to a sophisticated program with prolonged use.
ERM is regarded as a complete approach and as a result, leaders can trust the program as a comprehensive approach to risk management. The plan is meant to scratch through a broad range of operational threats in the internal and external environment of the company that could impact its short term and long-term success. In conclusion, the general conclusion is right; it is true to say that ERM has enabled the provision that is crucial in fulfilling and excelling in leadership mandate.

Ratio Analysis
1 | P a g e
Introduction
A sustainable business and mission requires effective planning and financial
management. Ratio analysis is a useful management tool that will improve your
understanding of financial results and trends over time, and provide key indicators of
organizational performance. Managers will use ratio analysis to pinpoint strengths
and weaknesses from which strategies and initiatives can be formed. Funders may use
ratio analysis to measure your results against other organizations or make judgments
concerning management effectiveness and mission impact
For ratios to be useful and meaningful, they must be:
o Calculated using reliable, accurate financial information (does your financial
information reflect your true cost picture?)
o Calculated consistently from period to period
o Used in comparison to internal benchmarks and goals
o Used in comparison to other companies in your industry
o Viewed both at a single point in time and as an indication of broad trends and
issues over time
o Carefully interpreted in the proper context, considering there are many other
important factors and indicators involved in assessing performance.
Ratios can be divided into four major categories:
o Profitability Sustainability
o Operational Efficiency
o Liquidity
o Leverage (Funding – Debt, Equity, Grants)
The ratios presented below represent some of the standard ratios used in business
practice and are provided as guidelines. Not all these ratios will provide the
information you need to support your particular decisions and strategies. You can also
develop your own ratios and indicators based on what you consider important and
meaningful to your organization and stakeholders.

Financial management
Ratio analysis is used to evaluate the financial performance and health of a business. Ratios show the mathematical relationship between two related figures and can be used for trend analysis and comparisons between firms. There are several types of ratios including liquidity ratios that measure short-term financial strength, activity/turnover ratios that measure efficiency, and profitability ratios. Current ratio, quick ratio, and inventory turnover ratio are some examples discussed. Ratios should be interpreted both individually and in comparison to past ratios and industry standards to evaluate performance over time.

Ratio analysis - Introduction
Financial ratios are created with the use of numerical values taken from financial statements to gain meaningful information about a company. The numbers found on a company’s financial statements – balance sheet, income statement, and cash flow statement – are used to perform quantitative analysis and assess a company’s liquidity, leverage, growth, margins, profitability, rates of return, valuation, and more.
Modes of Expression of Ratios:
Ratios may be expressed in any one or more of the following ways:
(a) Proportion,
(b) Rate or times
(c) Percentage.
Advantages of Ratio Analysis:
The information shown in financial statements does not signify anything individually because the facts shown are inter-related. Hence it is necessary to establish relationships between various items to reveal significant details and throw light on all notable financial and operational aspects. Ratio analysis caters to the needs of various parties interested in financial statements. The basic objective of ratio analysis is to help management in interpretation of financial statements to enable it to perform the managerial functions efficiently.
Limitations of Ratio Analysis:
Ratios are precious tools in the hands of management but the utility lies in the proper utilisation of ratios. Mishandling or misuse of ratios and using them without proper context may lead the management to a wrong direction. The financial analyst should be well versed in computing ratios and proper utilization of ratios. Like all techniques of control, ratio analysis also suffers from several ‘ifs and buts’ and for proper computation and utilization of ratios the analyst should be aware of the limitations of ratio analysis.
Uses and Users of Financial Ratio Analysis
Analysis of financial ratios serves two main purposes:
1. Track company performance
Determining individual financial ratios per period and tracking the change in their values over time is done to spot trends that may be developing in a company. For example, an increasing debt-to-asset ratio may indicate that a company is overburdened with debt and may eventually be facing default risk.
2. Make comparative judgments regarding company performance
Comparing financial ratios with that of major competitors is done to identify whether a company is performing better or worse than the industry average. For example, comparing the return on assets between companies helps an analyst or investor to determine which company is making the most efficient use of its assets.
Users of financial ratios include parties external and internal to the company:
External users: Financial analysts, retail investors, creditors, competitors, tax authorities, regulatory authorities, and industry observers
Internal users: Management team, employees, and owners
Financial analysis techniques
Common size statements normalize financial data to allow for easier comparison across companies and time periods. They express balance sheet items as a percentage of total assets and income statement items as a percentage of sales. Comparing the common size statements of Companies A, B, and C shows that while Company A has the smallest sales, it has the highest net income ratio at 18%. Company C has the lowest cost of goods sold ratio, indicating it has been able to lower production costs through higher R&D spending than Company B. The effective tax rate for all three companies is 40%, providing a more meaningful comparison than the common size tax expense percentages alone.

Calculating theWeighted Average Cost of Capital (WACC)
foryour Company
For use in Conjunction with the Firm Valuation Project
First ensure that you have read relevant pages in the text. Some important sections would include the following, but you may also double-check the references in the text by using the index [see: Cost of Capital and Target (optimal) Capital Structure, etc.]:
The important Chapter in the text is the one entitled "The Cost of Capital," – with a particular focus on the section entitled “The Weighted Average Cost of Capital” and the section “Four Mistakes to Avoid” at the end of the chapter.
The WACC formula discussed below does not include Preferred Stock. Should your company use PS, be sure to adjust the equation for it, and see the section in the chapter on the Cost of Preferred Stock.
The WACC formula that we use is:
WACC = wdrd(1-T) + wsrs
We need to know how to calculate:
1. rsthe cost of common equity. Use the Security Market Line (SML) – this is why you learn how to calculate a company’s beta and also why you learn how to find the appropriate risk-free rate and market-risk premium. For a review, see the section the text, The CAPM Approach.
2. The weights (wd and ws – note that: wd + ws = 1; so you only have to calculate one of them). We need to calculate the weight of debt and the weight of equity (for the cost of debt, this simply means: what proportion of the firm’s financing is by debt?). There is a lot to say here, simplified as Theory 1, Theory 2 and Practice:
a. Theory 1: Theory says that we should use the target weights along with the market values of both debt and equity (see the Four Mistakes to Avoid). But the market value of debt is typically difficult to calculate, because we need to know the YTM (which is rd) for all of the company’s debt, but we cannot calculate the YTM without having the current prices of the company’s outstanding bonds, and most company’s bonds do not trade (i.e., they will not have up-to-date or current prices – remember how to calculate the price (value) of a bond on your calculators?!). As a result, at least for the group project, we go to Theory 2.
b. Theory 2: Theory also says that we should use the TARGET weights, but this is a management decision, and as “outsiders” we do not have access to the thoughts of the CFO or CEO. So we should look instead to the historical pattern of the use of debt (mix of debt and equity), and this is one reason that you should have about 10 years of financial data.
c. Practice: Since we cannot “work” according to the strict theory of finance, we have to estimate the relevant weights. As a result, we will use the formula:
wd = Book Value of Debt / [Market Value of Equity + Book Value of Debt]
The book value of debt is calculated by adding up ALL of the debt on the balance sheet. This will typically be the sum of Notes Payable, Current Por ...

Assignment 3 Neuroanatomy ProjectImagine that you are working in .docx
Assignment 3: Neuroanatomy Project
Imagine that you are working in a neurology clinic. One of the neurologists tells you that as her practice is expanding, she is having difficulty meeting the education needs of her patients. Part of this problem is explaining the basic neuroanatomical structures to the patients in layperson’s language so that they understand their diagnoses and their underlying neurological impairment. The neurologist asks you to create a written guide for the patients, including both the CNS and PNS. She describes what the basic neuroanatomical structures are, where they are located, how they interact, and what function they serve.
She asks you to name the structures by using the correct technical language but to use layperson’s language as much as possible elsewhere.
Your "Neuroanatomy Guide" should cover the following:
Basic neuroanatomical structures (including the CNS and PNS, as well as the structural packaging that protects the brain from the environment)
Locations of these structures
Functions they serve (what functions damage to this area may affect)
How they interact
Be sure to explain the information in layperson’s language, and use graphics and pictures where helpful. Use APA format when citing material from scholarly sources such as your textbook and online notes. Include a cover page and a reference page listing the resources you used to create your guide.

Assignment 3 Mobile Computing and Social Networking Due Week 7 a.docx
Assignment 3: Mobile Computing and Social Networking
Due Week 7 and worth 75 points
Mobile computing has dramatically changed how information is accessed and shared. Wireless networking has been an enabler of mobile computing. One profession that mobile computing has had a big impact on is health care management. Patients are now able to monitor their vital signs such as blood pressure, glucose levels, etc. without having to periodically visit a doctor’s office or hospital. There are devices such as the Withings Blood Pressure Monitor that works with an iPhone, iPod Touch, or iPad to record, track, and graph a patient’s blood pressure. There are other devices that can measure blood glucose levels, oxygen levels, heart rate, etc. and use an iPhone to send the results to a clinical server. Doctors and caregivers are then able to access the data on the clinical server. According to the American College of Gastroenterology, social networking sites like Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube are used as powerful platforms to deliver and receive health care information. Patients and caregivers are increasingly going online to connect and share experiences with others with similar medical issues or concerns Patients are able to take advantage of social networks to do more than just share pictures and tweets. Write a four to five (4-5) page paper in which you:
Compare and contrast monitoring of patient vital signs using mobile computing technology to in-patient visits to the doctor’s office or hospital.
Analyze the advantages and disadvantages of using mobile computing technology to monitor patients.
Assess the security concerns with regard to the transmission of personal medical information over wireless networks.
Assess the use of social networking for group support for patients with similar medical concerns.
Use at least three (3) quality resources in this assignment. Note: Wikipedia and similar Websites do not qualify as quality resources.

services.
•
Apply management accounting concepts to identify and process relevant financial
information for decision-making purposes.
•

Assignment:
West Island Products (WIP) is a divisionalized furniture manufacturer. The divisions are
autonomous segments with each division responsible for its own sales, cost of operations, and
equipment acquisition. Divisional performance is evaluated annually based on ROI. Each division
serves a different market in the furniture industry. Because the markets and products of the
divisions are so different, there have never been any transfers between divisions.
The Commercial Division of WIP, manufacturers furniture for the restaurant industry. The
Commercial Division plans to introduce a new line of counter chair units featuring a cushioned
seat. Roberta Katz, the Commercial Division manager, has discussed the manufacturing of the
cushioned seats with Nathan Danielson of the Office Division. They both believe a cushioned
seat currently made by the Office Division for use on its deluxe office stool could be modified for
use on the new counter chair. Consequently, Katz asked Danielson for a price for 100-unit lots of
the cushioned seats. The following conversation took place about the price to be charged for the
cushioned seats.
Danielson:
“Roberta, we can make the necessary modifications to the cushioned seat easily.
The raw materials used in the new counter chair seat are slightly different and
should cost about 10 percent more than those used in our deluxe office stool.
However, the labor time should be the same because the seat fabrication
process is the same. I would price the cushioned seat at our regular rate: full cost
plus a 30 percent mark-up. According to my calculations, that would be $2,053
per lot of 100 seats.”
Katz:
“That’s higher than I expected, Nathan. I was thinking that a good price would be
your variable manufacturing cost. After all, your fixed costs will be incurred
regardless of this job. In addition, I have received a quote from one of the
Commercial Division’s regular suppliers to provide us with the counter seats at
$1,900 per lot of 100 seats.”
Danielson:
“Roberta, I am at full capacity. By making the cushioned seats for you, I have to
cut my production of deluxe office stools. The labor time freed by not having to
fabricate the frame and assemble the deluxe stool can be shifted to the
production of the economy stool. I’d like to sell the cushioned seats to you at my
variable cost, but I have excess.

Assignment 3 Juvenile ProbationIn many ways, juvenile probation i.docx
Assignment 3: Juvenile Probation
In many ways, juvenile probation is similar to adult probation. Both types of probation involve sanctions imposed by the court, necessitating close supervision of the offender, coupled with the looming threat of a more severe punishment, typically incarceration, if the offender fails to comply with the conditions stipulated in his or her probation.
Given the inherent complexity of working with juveniles, juvenile probation includes components, rules, and processes not found in adult probation. For example, probation officers must take into account factors such as school and parental wishes while determining how a particular case should be handled. These factors are not taken into consideration in adult probation. Also, juvenile probation officers must contend with and account for the inclusion of status offenses, which can be more difficult to track and monitor.
Tasks:
Prepare a 3- to 5-page report on your local juvenile probation department. In your report:
Describe the types of juvenile cases that your local juvenile probation department has taken care of in the past.
Locate and comment on the following:
The department’s mission and vision statement
Whether the juvenile department is located with the adult probation department and community corrections
The number of services aimed toward juveniles
The statistics that demonstrate the department’s effectiveness
State the overall assessment of your local juvenile probation department. Explain based on your research whether you think the department is run well. Does the department meet the needs of local youth? Support your answer with evidence.

Anatomy of a Research Article
The most common type of peer-reviewed article is the research article, or paper describing a research
study. Authors of research articles follow a prescribed structure as they discuss their studies. As you begin
to gather articles for your literature review, you will begin to recognize a common anatomy, or structure,
across the articles. This common anatomy makes it easier for us to navigate and understand the articles we
read.
Research articles are typically organized into the following seven sections:
1) Title Page
2) Abstract
3) Introduction
4) Methods
5) Results
6) Discussion

Assignment 3 Gender IdentityWe are socialized at every stage in l.docx
Assignment 3: Gender Identity
We are socialized at every stage in life to conform to our gender identity. Societal reinforcement of tendencies of gender identity is relentless. For example, in hospitals, little girls are wrapped in pink and little boys in blue. This difference in colors influences how we learn and how we internalize our role in our society.
Girls tend to grow up to play feminine roles and boys tend to grow up to play masculine roles. This differentiation of gender identity has implications in social stratification. The videos given below will provide you with a better understanding of the differentiation of sexual identity from an earlier generation.
Search for and watch an episode of at least one of the following shows. You may find these videos using a variety of search methods including visiting your local library, using Netflix or your local video store, or searching on YouTube. If you have difficulty locating an episode of one of the following shows, contact your instructor for assistance in finding an alternative.
I Love Lucy
All in the Family
The Mickey Mouse Club
The Honeymooners
Leave it to Beaver
Father Knows Best
Gilligan’s Island
The Brady Bunch
I Dream of Jeannie
As you watch the video, ask yourself the following questions:
To what extent have things changed and to what extent have they remained the same in regards to gender roles, expectations, division, and identity from the time this show was originally popular and today?
How conscious and sensitive are the characters regarding gender prejudice, power inequality, and subordination?
Did they take inequality of the sexes for granted?
Based on your readings and understanding that you have gathered after watching the above-noted video, write a short biographical description of your life if you were to wake up tomorrow morning in the time period of the video you watched and find you have a different gender identity. Write a description of how you lived your life a day after your hypothetical change in gender as you answer the following questions
Discuss how you would react on finding out that your sex is opposite. Would you feel a sense of relief, indifference, or elation? Why?
Discuss three ways your attitude towards the opposite sex was enlightened or would change as a result of what you learned from this project. If you would not change your attitude, why?
Write down the ideas and attitudes you have taken for granted a member of your actual gender. Consider how your roles at home and in the office would change if you were a member of the opposite gender.
Relate the ideas of sexism and racism to the videos. How do you think sexism and racism have changed since the 1950s?
Use the following file naming convention: LastnameFirstInitial_M1_A3.doc. For example, if your name is John Smith, your document will be named SmithJ_M1_A3.doc.

How to Make a Field Mandatory in Odoo 17
In Odoo, making a field required can be done through both Python code and XML views. When you set the required attribute to True in Python code, it makes the field required across all views where it's used. Conversely, when you set the required attribute in XML views, it makes the field required only in the context of that particular view.
LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UP
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems
9
Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

- 1. Your name: Company Name: Comparative Ratio Analysis These are the ratios I want you to do and the format I want them completed in. If you have problems using this form please feel free to create your own. Remember to refer to the Decision Analysis in each chapter to help you complete the analysis portion of the sheet. Also, remember the accounts that are included in each ratio and address how they may have changed from year to year especially if the ratio has changed substantially. Then make recommendations as to how managers might address any issues they might find. This ratio analysis is grouped into three sections: Liquidity Ratios, Profitability Ratios, and Market Ratios. Unlike the assignments in the individual chapters, for this assignment you will analyze the company from these three perspectives taking into account all the ratios included in that each particular group. In the real world you would compare these ratios to a market standard found in the RMA or another publication however, access to these on-line cost money. In the classroom we used the RMA from our campus libraries. So the best we can do here is compare one year to the next. This is a sophomore level college class and the assignment is worth 100 Points so you will be expected to put some effort into this analysis. The Financial Statement Analysis that goes with this assignment can be found in another file called Stmt Analysis File. Together they will be worth 100 Points. You might want to complete that file first as it may provide some insight into what is going in the accounts for this ratio analysis.
