Art-Making (submit photographs and written text on Canvas)
Photographic seeing is different than our everyday modes of seeing. The camera helps us (among much else) focus, edit, remember, and investigate our lives and the world around us. Develop a new photographic practice: come up with an idea or system for what to photograph and do so at regular intervals – e.g. every hour or every day. You must have at least 5 photographs. In a short paragraph, describe your photographic process and describe what you learned and noticed at the end of the assignment.

Torts Assignment 2
#2 For each scenario, students must carefully review the client’s case facts and decide, if the client is seeking to file suit, what tort claim(s) may exist and the elements of those tort(s). If, on the other hand, the client has been sued, determine what defenses to tort may exist and the requirements for those defenses. Remember, a client may have NO claim or defense, so, examine the facts carefully to correctly assess your client’s case. Incorporate on point statutory and case law research to support your conclusions. Prepare your submission in memo format. Case #1 Moran v. Franks, Inc. Your client, Rick Moran, wants to file suit for injuries he alleges occurred as the result of riding the ‘ Bat Outta Hell ‘ rollercoaster at Seaview Park, Amusement Park, owned by Franks, Inc.. Rick says he fell out of the coaster on an upside down turn, due to a failure of the seat bar to hold him in the seat. Medical reports indicate two broken ribs and a sprained neck resulting from physical impact. Investigation shows the coaster car Rick was in had a loose safety bar which had not been inspected as required by city ordinance. Investigation also indicated Rick was standing in the car at the time of the accident, a violation of ride rules. Case #2 Harvey v. Schmoltz Your client, Elvira Schmoltz, was recently sued by Bart Harvey based on her statements to a PTA meeting, with over 50 members in attendance, that ‘ Bart is a poor father and a pedophile who enjoys sex with minor children. ‘. There is no independent evidence Bart has engaged in any such conduct and, to the contrary, Bart is a model father to his 2 sons. Witnesses at the meeting confirm the statement was made. Bart does have a prior conviction for speeding and for trespass on Elvira’s property over 10 years ago. Case #3 Rhand Corporation v. Justine Rhand has hired your firm to sue Emil Justine based upon Justine’s filing of a baseless lawsuit last year alleging that Rhand’s subsidiary served a soft drink which was too cold, causing an alleged stomach irritation. Justine ultimately produced no evidence to support his claim, after strenuously trying to settle the case with Rhand for several months before the case was ultimately dismissed in Rhand’s favor on a motion for summary judgment. Rhand suffered over $75,000 in legal fees and other expenses related to defending the case. Justine even confided in one of Rhand’s employees that he was hoping to get ‘ anything he could to get Rhand back for firing him a year earlier.’.

Capital Budget Decision Making for an Organization
For this Performance Task Assessment, you will play the role of a consultant who has been hired by a mid-sized company that recently went public to provide some recommendations related to their short-term and long-term financial needs. Your first project is to analyze the short- and long-term capital budget needs of the company. You will prepare and submit a 3- to 5-page report, including an executive summary in which you synthesize your recommendations for the following fiscal year, along with the provided Excel spreadsheet with your calculations. Explain your findings and your recommendations.
For each of the following items in your report, you will complete the calculations in the provided Excel template (MF003_Assessment_Template_Part1.xlsx) and will then use that financial information to develop your report to the owner using the provided Word template (MF003_Assessment_Template_Part2.docx).
Part 1: Short-Term Working Capital Considerations (1–2 pages, plus calculations in Excel)
Analyze the differences between gross working capital, net working capital, and net operating working capital and their relationship to the cash conversion cycle.
The company owner is considering a new venture that would require an additional $50,000 every month in inventory from a supplier over the next year. (Note: Use your creativity to come up with such a venture that can serve as a basis for your recommendations.) Explain the various short-term financing options available, including the advantages and disadvantages of each source. What do you recommend and why?
Assume that the company has an inventory conversion period of 64 days, an average collection period of 28 days, and a payables deferral period of 41 days.
What is the length of the cash conversion cycle?
If annual sales are $2,578,235 and all sales are on credit, what is the investment in accounts receivable?
How many times per year does the company turn over its inventory? Assume that the cost of goods sold is 75% of sales. Use sales in the numerator to calculate the turnover ratio.
Compare the cash conversion cycles of two competitors of your company using the following facts:
Competitor A
Inventory conversion period = 88 days
Average collection period (ACP) = 54 days
Payables deferral period = 30 days
Competitor B
Inventory conversion period = 90 days
ACP = 44 days
Payables deferral period = 30 days
Assume that the company’s sales are expected to increase from $5 million in 2020 to $6 million in 2021, or by 20%. Its assets totaled $3 million at the end of the prior fiscal year. The company is at full capacity, so its assets must grow in proportion to projected sales. At the end of 2020, current liabilities are $1 million, consisting of $250,000 of accounts payable, $500,000 of notes payable, and $250,000 of accrued liabilities. Its profit margin is forecasted to be 3%, and the forecasted retention ratio is 30%. Use the AFN equation to forecast the additional funds needed for the coming year.
The company’s leadership team is very concerned about funding growth with new debt, given the existing liabilities. Propose strategies the company might consider to reduce its AFN.
In your financial analysis, you have identified possible opportunities in Israel to expand operations. The company owner wants to know if it may be more advantageous to exchange U.S. dollars for Japanese yen first and then obtain Israeli shekels to invest. You observed that in the spot exchange market, 1 U.S. dollar can be exchanged for 3.58 Israeli shekels or for 109 Japanese yen. What is the cross-exchange rate between the yen and the shekel; that is, how many yen would you receive for every shekel exchanged?
Based on your calculations, what are the options available to the company and potential financial benefits of each? What strategy do you recommend?
Part 2: Long-Term Working Capital Considerations (1–2 pages, plus calculations in Excel)
Future Value: If the company deposits $2 million in a bank account that pays 6% interest annually, how much will be in the account after 5 years?
Present Value: What is the present value of a security that will pay $29,000 in 20 years if securities of equal risk pay 5% annually?
Required Interest Rates: The company owner has said she will retire in 19 years. She currently has $350,000 saved and thinks she will need $800,000 at retirement. What annual interest rate must she earn to reach that goal, assuming she does not save any additional funds?
Future Value of an Annuity: Find the future values of these ordinary annuities. Compounding occurs once a year.
$500 per year for 8 years at 14%
$250 per year for 4 years at 7%
$700 per year for 4 years at 0%
Present Value of an Annuity: Find the present values of these ordinary annuities. Discounting occurs once a year.
$600 per year for 12 years at 8%
$300 per year for 6 years at 4%
$500 per year for 6 years at 0%
Bond Valuation: The company has two bonds in their investment portfolio, Bond C and Bond Z. Each bond matures in 4 years, has a face value of $1,000, and has a yield to maturity of 8.2%. Bond C pays an 11.5% annual coupon, while Bond Z is a zero-coupon bond.
Assuming that the yield to maturity of each bond remains at 8.2% over the next 4 years, calculate the price of the bonds at each of the following years to maturity. Explain any observed differences from the pricing calculations of the two bonds.

Yield to Maturity and Yield to Call: The owner is interested in investing some retained earnings in corporate bonds. She is considering the following:
Bond A has a 7% annual coupon, matures in 12 years, and has a $1,000 face value.
Bond B has a 9% annual coupon, matures in 12 years, and has a $1,000 face value.
Bond C has an 11% annual coupon, matures in 12 years, and has a $1,000 face value.
Each bond has a yield to maturity of 9%.
Before calculating the prices of the bonds, indicate whether each bond is trading at a premium, at a discount, or at par.
Calculate the price of each of the three bonds.
Calculate the current yield for each of the three bonds.
CAPM and Required Return: The company has a beta of 1.1, and the closest competitor has a beta of 0.30. The required return on an index fund that holds the entire stock market is 11%. The risk-free rate of interest is 4.5%. By how much does your company’s required return exceed your competitor’s required return?
Constant Growth Valuation: The company is expected to pay a $1.80 per share dividend at the end of the year (i.e., D1 = $1.80). The dividend is expected to grow at a constant rate of 4% a year. The required rate of return on the stock, rs, is 10%. What is the stock’s current value per share?
Nonconstant Growth Valuation: The company recently paid a dividend, D0, of $2.75. It expects to have nonconstant growth of 18% for 2 years followed by a constant rate of 6% thereafter. The firm’s required return is 12%.
How far away is the horizon date?
What is the firm’s horizon, or continuing, value?
What is the firm’s intrinsic value today, P0?
Weighted Average Cost of Capital: The company has a target capital structure of 35% debt and 65% common equity, with no preferred stock. Its before-tax cost of debt is 8%, and its marginal tax rate is 40%. The current stock price is P0 = $22.00. The last dividend was D0 = $2.25, and it is expected to grow at a 5% constant rate. What is its cost of common equity and its WACC?
Capital Budgeting Criteria: The company has an 11% WACC and is considering two mutually exclusive investments (that cannot be repeated) with the following cash flows:
What is each project’s NPV?
What is each project’s IRR?
What is each project’s MIRR? (Hint: Consider Period 7 as the end of Project B’s life.)
From your answers to parts a, b, and c, which project would be selected? If the WACC was 18%, which project would be selected?
Construct NPV profiles for Projects A and B.
Calculate the crossover rate where the two projects’ NPVs are equal.
What is each project’s MIRR at a WACC of 18%?
Part 3: Executive Summary (page 1 of your report)
