fin 3403 how do you feel about risk and return and investing in stocks

/in /by

For example, think about investing in the stock market where the actual return may be higher or lower than what was expected. There are factors that may determine if you would invest in a particular stock (P/E ratio, dividend yield, EPS, etc.). For this assignment, pick two well-known companies in different industries (e.g., Ford and Facebook).

Answer ALL 4 questions below:

  1. Which companies did you choose, and what factors would you use to determine which company to invest in? Based on these factors, does one company seem riskier than the other?
  2. How does the industry impact a company’s risk? Would the risk associated with the industry/company you selected influence your decision to invest? Explain.
  3. Look at the P/E ratios and dividend yield. What does the P/E ratio say about each company? Are they overvalued or undervalued? Why are the P/E ratio and dividend yield different?
  4. Suppose you are risk averse, but you have $1,000 you want to invest in the market. Which company would be the best to invest in? As a risk averse investor, would you want to invest in individual stocks or in mutual funds? Explain.

Your score will be determined by your word count (200 word minimum), completely answering all questions, the accuracy of the information you provide, and how well-written your answers are (see rubric

organic chemistry lab pre lab column chromatography

/in /by

Pre-lab preparation: Refresh your memory by rereading the intro to TLC in Exp 7, then

read this write-up, carefully in its entirety.

(1) Briefly state the purpose of this experiment. (2) When applying a mixture of compounds to a chromatography column, should you (i) try to get the mixture completely onto the silica using as little solvent as possible, (ii) dissolve the sample in the first 10-mL portion of solvent, then add that solution to the silica, or (iii) add the sample to the column, then add the first portion of solvent to dissolve it inside the column. (3) Why is it always better to transfer 1 mL of a solution with a pipet instead of by pouring it? (hint: oink) (4) In Part A you will start with 30 mg of material. How many grams is this? (5) Near the end of the introduction, the TLC analysis of 20 5-mL fractions from a column is illustrated. Suppose we had instead collected everything that eluted from the column as just 4 fractions of 25 mL each. Sketch the TLC plate that we would have gotten from running those 4 column fractions. (Read carefully and think — that says four 25-mL fractions, not every 4th 5-mL fraction.) (6) You will be using ethyl acetate and hexane in this experiment. What are their boiling points? (7) Ask The Google what ailment is caused by inhalation of significant quantities of silica dust.

barriers to care 2

/in /by

Suicide and homicide are violent actions reported in the news daily. Individuals suffering from abuse, depression, mental disorders, or substance-abuse disorders are at an increased risk for committing suicide or homicide. Factors that contribute to the risk are age, gender, socio-economic status, and race/ethnicity. Additionally, situations that cause extreme life or job stress, such as those seen when a loved one dies or by military personnel, can contribute to the risk. Chapter 6 of your course text highlights barriers to care relating to the vulnerable and this population group in particular. For this discussion:

  • Locate and share statistical data for your community on annual suicide and homicide rates.
  • Identify and briefly describe one organizational barrier and one financial barrier relating to the suicide- and homicide-prone.
  • Create two recommendations on ways each of these barriers can be reduced or eliminated.
  • Identify two local resources available for suicide- or homicide-prone individuals. Discuss which services are offered and whether the services fully meet the needs of the population.

Your initial contribution should be 250 to 300 words in length. Your research and claims must be supported by your course text and at least one other scholarly source. Use proper APA formatting for in-text citations and references
