Hello, I am looking for someone to write an essay on FedEx Technology. It needs to be at least 750 words.

FedEx case study presents a number of logistical problems including tracking goods problem caused by the airline’s reliance on disjointed data, delays in the assortment of goods and packaging, increased operating costs, overworked fast-cycle logistic system as well as a centralized structure for the airline. Tracking goods in is one of the major issues affecting the success of cargo airline because it determines the timely delivery of goods to perspective clients.&nbsp. Notably, FedEx lacks proper tracking of goods that arrive from various destinations. hence, affecting some of the goods that arrive without the consent of the airline because management efficacy of the flow of goods solely depends on the capability to track goods from the origin to the client. Failure to tack all goods in an effective manner leads to the airline failure to meet the requirements by customer, which is a major logistical problem. Although delayed flights primarily cause sorting process inconsistencies, &nbsp.&nbsp.the consequence of increased costs is a logistical problem because FedEx should have a system that ensures delayed flights are sorted in a special isolated warehouse. This&nbsp. ensures that the delayed arrival flight does not affect the departure, which is done by ensuring that the sorting process is done faster than it would be done by the existing package-sorting system at MEM.&nbsp. The case study indicates that the fast-cycle logistics push is compressed particularly at night. hence, overworked because of the airlines centralized location, which is a logistical problem because the airline’s structure fails to streamline operations and monitoring costs. A single cargo flight delay consequences are just more than time and can have substantial effect on the cost of business because it contributes to the upward trend on the operating cost. The initial effect on the cost on business will be paying overtime expenses to the pilot and the crew.&nbsp. The airline deals with time-sensitive cargo. hence, is prone to compensating customers of delayed time-sensitive goods such as horticulture products meant for specific timely occasions.&nbsp.

Hello, I am looking for someone to write an essay on Financial statement auditing analysis. It needs to be at least 1750 words.

This essay seeks to examine five areas of heightened audit risk relating to the audit of the Havelock Company under study.

As a point of departure, the management commentary on credit and liquidity risks indicates existence of unsound control systems on revenues and the general expenditure of the company. This study will focus on the profitability, liquidity, financial leverage, working capital and valuation ratios. These instruments are essentially the reflection of the company’s financial position in terms of control system management. This follows that. analytical examination of the ratios will play a fundamental role in exhibiting the potential risks areas of Havelock Company (RODGERS, 2007).

These ratios include Gross profit margin, Operating margin and net profit margin. These ratios aid in investigating profitability status of an organization through comparison of the income aspects with sales. This follows that, upon examining and comparing Havelock Company’s profitability ratios of 2011 and 2012, auditing assumptions will be made consequently, identifying the possible risk audit areas (VOGEL, 2007).

The gross margin profit implies that the amount of sales revenue which remains after the cost of goods. The ratios above indicate the in 2011 the sales revenue left was significantly low compared to 2013. There is a shift from -0.36 to 0.07. This tells the auditors that the significant change should be widely investigated, particularly on the element of sales. The significant rate of the sales revenue remained might be investigated based on sale of goods of other brands from outside, hence creating a backlog of the company’s goods. This is a potential audit area for Havelock Company, which might be attributed to issues of disclosure (VOGEL, 2007).

These ratios aid in establishing the company’s capacity to meet its short-term debts. The current ratio for Havelock went down from 5.43 in 2011 to 2.88 in 2012. This implies that the

Hello, I am looking for someone to write an essay on Financial Econometrics Coursework. It needs to be at least 2000 words.

In 2003, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) mentioned that the R-square of the regression analysis was insufficient to determine the effectiveness of hedging. In a speech by a professional accounting fellow from the office of the chief accountant of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, stated that determination of hedge effectiveness should consider the slope of the coefficient of the regression analysis. This coefficient reflects the minimum variance hedge ratio.1

The interpretation of the regression slope coefficient is the average change in the dependent variable: real total expenditure on food for a unit increase in the independent variable: Real total expenditure on goods and services. The slope coefficient it 0.32, thus for every 1 unit change in real total expenditure on goods and services, there is a 0.32 unit change in real expenditure on food.

Omission of an important independent variable such as real price of food relative to other goods will result in the decreased ability of the model to predict the real total expenditures on food given the real total expenditures on food.

The independent variables used to predict 99.9% of the dependent variable: real consumption expenditure as indicated by the value of the adjusted-R Squared. The Durbin-Watson value of 1.85 indicates there is no signs of first-order serial correlation in the residuals of a time series regression. The values of Akaike info criterion (AIC) -268.2093 and Schwarz criterion -273.6530 are extremely low indicating the need for modification in the regression model by changing the independent variables. The t-statistic value could be compared with the critical t-value which is not available.

The reported Probability is the p-value, or marginal significance level. Since this probability value of the regression analysis (F-statistic) is less than the size of the test, say 0.05, the null hypothesis could be rejected. This indicates that the

Hello, I am looking for someone to write an essay on Financial Comparison of Pepsi Co. and Coca-Cola. It needs to be at least 1750 words.

In this paper, 2004 to 2005 financial analysis will be based on comparing financial ratios of both companies along with essential Balance Sheet items.

In PepsiCo, the gross profit ratio has fallen by 1 percent from 2004 to 2005. Therefore, the company dwindled slightly on generating more cash from sales in 2005. In Coca-Cola, the gross profit ratio also fell by 1 percent from 2004 to 2005. This tells us that both companies’ capacity of cash generation showed similar trend. Decline in gross profit ratio means a company has less cash in hand to make payments to creditors, suppliers etc. However, since the ratio decline rate of PepsiCo and Coca-Cola was not very high (only 1 percent) from 2004 to 2005, hence it can be said that both the beverage companies had in them to plan their activities in a more economic way resulting in efficient management of their business activities. The net profit ratio of PepsiCo has decreased from 33% in 2004 to 29% in 2005, which means profit per dollar has decreased. The net profit ratio of Coca-Cola has dropped by same rate from 63% in 2004 to 59% in 2005. Coca-Cola has incurred similar loss per unit in 2005 which means both the companies have shown same level of performance as far as profits are concerned. The return of equity ratio of PepsiCo has fallen from 31% in 2004 to 28% to 2005, while Coca-Cola’s has remained same at 30% in both the years. It means investors have been getting better returns from Coca-Cola while PepsiCo’s shareholders have received reduced returns in 2005 than in 2004. This leads to more trust of investors on Coca-Cola and they will be encouraged to invest more in this company than in PepsiCo. The return on capital ratio means how well a company manages its assets to garner profit. Coca-Cola’s management of assets has been prudent since the ratio has increased from 15% in 2004 to 17% in 2005. Comparatively, PepsiCo has shown poor management of assets

Hello, I am looking for someone to write an essay on Financial Analysis Report. It needs to be at least 1250 words.

The auto industry is one of the largest and most profitable industries in the world. There are over one billion vehicles worldwide and in the United States there are approximately 240 million cars (Tencer, 2011). These vehicles often breakdown and require maintenance. Due to the massive amount of vehicles in the United States there is a huge demand for auto parts. One of the biggest players in the auto parts industry is AutoZone. AutoZone has been in business for over 30 years. The organization was founded in 1979. The company is committed to providing the best parts, prices and customer service in the automotive aftermarket industry (Autozoneinc, 2012). The company believes in the value of providing great service in order to increase its customer retention rate. Based on Pareto’s 80/20 rule firms obtain 80% of their business from 20% of their customers (Hafner, 2001).

AutoZone is a publicly traded company sold in the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol AZO. The stock as of August 3, 2012 was selling at a price of $360.33 (Yahoo). The firm began to sell its stocks in the open market in 1991. The market capitalization of the company is $13.71 billion. Market capitalization is calculated by dividing total stocks outstanding by market price. The company is a member of the Fortune 500. The fact that AutoZone is a publicly traded company gives this firm an advantage in this industry due to the fact that the company always has the option of releasing a secondary stock offering to raise capital. The auto parts industry is extremely fragmented with thousands of independent auto parts stores across the nation.

AutoZone has grown a lot since its inception 33 years ago. The company today is the market leader in the auto parts industry in the United States of America. The corporate headquarters of AutoZone are located at 123 S. Front St. Memphis, TN 38103 (Ecorporateoffices, 2012). The auto parts chain

Hello, I am looking for someone to write an essay on Finance for business decision. It needs to be at least 1000 words.

As such the role of external auditors, regulatory agencies as well as credit rating agencies become critical because they need to highlight the information which may be detrimental for the interests of the shareholders. The overall role of the external monitors therefore should be up to taking care of the fact that the firm reports all the relevant and pertinent information which may have an impact on the decision making ability of the investors.

The case of Enron is considered as one of the leading examples where the external monitors of the firm failed to carry out their responsibilities. The Enron was finally liquidated and the investors lost their money owing to the fraudulent accounting practices of the firm which went unnoticed by the firm’s auditors as well as external agencies.

(b) Suppose that you decide to invest $1,308.25 in four equal quarterly instalments, at the same rate of 9.2% p.a. compounding quarterly. The first instalment is invested immediately. What is the accumulated value at the end of one year?

The differences between the two investment choices are due to the compounding. In first investment, whole amount is invested whereas in second investment, it is converted into an annuity and is invested with compound interest. The second option yielded higher accumulated value because of the impact of the annuity.

(a) Francine wishes to invest in a 5-year corporate bond that pays coupons semi-annually. The bond has a face value of $1 million and pays half-yearly coupons at a rate of 4% p.a. Suppose that her required rate of return on this investment is 6.5% p.a. How much is she willing to pay for this bond?

The market price of the bond is higher than the value of the bond at Francine’s required rate of return. Since the bond is selling at discount therefore she should not invest into this bond at this market price.

Lamb Limited plans to set aside $28,000 at the end of each year in order to accumulate $100,000

Hello, I am looking for someone to write an essay on Final Letter to the Instructor. It needs to be at least 750 words.

Download file to see previous pages…

Thanks to my instructor for facilitating smooth learning process by providing a healthy environment with equal opportunity for every student to learn something new. The experience of this class helped me become more aware of my writing strengths and weaknesses. The content learnt did not only help me identify my weaknesses in writing, but also provided me with tools to strengthen these weaknesses. I would really recommend this course to other students I know who have not been able to identify their writing weaknesses and strengths. Apart from the class teachings, involvement in group work and discussions even played a bigger role in helping me identify my skills. During the course, I worked with several groups on various projects. The group environment enabled me to identify areas that I was strong in and those that I had weaknesses. Through group projects, there was an opportunity to share ideas and opinions with other group members. Once in a discussion, you could be able to identify opinion of others that were widely accepted by the group members, which you were not familiar with and put them down as weaknesses. My own opinions that got wide acceptance in the group reflected as strengths to me. A lot of writing principles and elements learn in this class have changed my attitude towards writing and made me feel more attracted to the discipline. My writing skills before enrollment in this course were not as they are today. I could make many mistakes including grammar, styles and punctuation. In writing, there are various writing formats for different types of essays and business writing. I had prior knowledge on formats for such essays as argumentative, persuasive and research papers, which I had done some online research on before. I could write concisely and avoid relative terms but I later realized there was still more I was not familiar with in writing. It was difficult for me to write point of view essays and informative essays since I was not good on them. Through such difficulties experienced, I was able to identify areas that needed improvement. Throughout the course, my aim has been to improve my writing skills and apply every principle and element learnt in this class. My guiding principle throughout the course has been having a positive attitude towards everything even when challenges come your way. By this, I was always motivated to make it even when faced with challenges. It was a great experience working with such an attitude, in an environment full of encouragement from the instructor and colleagues. I realized it is possible to learn a lot from anything one has interest in as long as he or she is ready to take criticism and understand that it is not personal but a way of helping. Out of the course work, most of my writings skills have changed positively. My writings are more effective because I have understood the importance of considering the target audience before working on any paper. Understanding the targeted audience helps one decide the structure and the language to use in writing it. From the acquired skills, writing well-structured professional papers has become easier for me. I have realized some of the major mistakes I used to make when drafting professional documents, for example, my resume had many mistakes and after getting these skills, I managed to make several changes to the document to make it attractive and professional. My confidence in writing memos and letters has improved.

Hello, I am looking for someone to write an essay on Film/Reading Response. It needs to be at least 500 words.

The use of monochrome in the film is conspicuous because it helps differentiate the rural routine and the new modernizing Italian lifestyle. La Dolce Vita was shot in black and white, despite the availability of color in that period. Marcello, a society gossip columnist, is a journalist and man-about-town in search of an identity in the world, hobnobbing with the elite, while dealing with the stifling home life of his girlfriend. Most of the scenes in the story depict his quests where he seeks short-lived joy in wild parties and sexual interactions. Marcello meets Sylvia, a famous movie star, who is new in town and he switches into his charm mode. He flirts with the movie star, without much consideration of his girlfriend at home. Theme development is advanced in the film in the way Marcello cuts himself from the real world and dwells in a setting of self-pity and self-disgust, coupled by confusion on the best way to tackle life.

The director uses erotic, strange, and surreal imagery in the creation of cinematic appeal for the film. Marcello’s environment has a fairytale setting full of fallacy and falsehood. The film is full of symbolism, and is a cinematic version of the end of the world or revelation in the book of Daniel. His close friend’s life descends into despair, after which he commits suicide. Marcello considered him as a successful writer, and his suicide baffles him. In terms of symbolism, it may represent the judgment of the wicked. In addition, his girlfriend is a pure soul who craves for his attention, but Marcello is so absorbed in his “whorish” life that he does not notice her troubles. Eventually, she commits suicide because of his actions, which are largely disheartening. It is ironical how Marcello is both displeased and excited about his life as a journalist.

The screenplay encompasses the Italian pop and celebrity society, and the negativities associated with the

Hello, I am looking for someone to write an essay on Film. It needs to be at least 250 words.

My thesis is that these films have differences in semantics, mostly in the physical look and attitudes of the people and the physical aspects of the settings, but locations, archetypes, and actors express what it means to be truly human or inhuman, while syntax emphasizes the interconnection between capitalism, materialism, and dehumanization, where some people/non-people manage to re-assert the core of humanity.

These stories have a different look because Blade Runner has darkness in it, while Bicentennial Man combines comedy and drama. The main protagonists provide the mood of the film. Robin Williams injects humor into an otherwise complex and seemingly impossible condition, while Harrison Ford is a detached, but committed blade runner. Despite these differences, these films share the stories of hope and love. The vision of the future of Ridley Scott is dark and materialistic, while for Chris Columbus, it is also capitalistic and materialistic, but full of hope. Furthermore, Blade Runner and Bicentennial Man have the themes of humanity, capitalism, and materialism. Social isolation is more prevalent in Blade Runner. In the end, human love and determination are human strengths that differentiate human beings from animals and that humanness is not exclusive to people, but can develop among non-humans who want to be entirely human beings in
