Ben Bates

Ben Hall? Who was Ben Hall? A victim, hero or a criminal? Good Afternoon fellow students and Mrs. Nielsen. The topic that we will be debating this afternoon is: Ben Hall was a decent, innocent young man who suffered continual harassment by the police for no reason at all. He was driven into crime by the harshness of the authorities. Therefore making him an outlaw hero. A hero is defined as a person who, in the opinion of others, has heroic qualities or has performed a heroic act and is regarded as a model or ideal. Today I will be talking about Ben hall’s life and what makes him a hero.

* Complete 24 semester hours or quarter-hour equivalents of upper level related business courses. Within the coursework two-semester hours of accounting or business communications are required.

These annual amounts I used to calculate annual tax savings by multiplying annual interest amount by tax rate. In order to be able to compare the amounts received in different years, I found present values of each cash flow. I added up the PVs of tax savings for every year to get total tax savings (all 15 years for option 1 and first 5 years for option 2).

a. What amount of ordinary income and separately stated items are allocated to them for years 1 and 2 based on the information above?

13. What is the formula for the Present Value (PV) for a finite stream of cash flows (1 per year) that lasts for 10 years?

Therefore, the best option for Ben is getting the MBA at Wilton University because it has highest net present value which is $1,461,953.54.

I intend to pursue an MBA in Finance. The said concentration will equip me with the relevant skills I require to succeed as a finance director in a reputable organization my long-term career goal. I am certain that with an MBA in finance from a reputable institution like Terry College of Business, I will not encounter any difficulties securing employment in a top firm. This is more so the case given that as the college points out in its website, "our programs not only get you to the table-they keep you there" (Terry College of Business, 2013). For this reason, I am certain that having an MBA in finance from a top business school will jumpstart my career and shepherd it in the right direction.

b. What is the present value of this annuity if the opportunity cost rate is 10% annually? 10% compounded semiannually?

Given that the total profit over 8 years is $1.2375B (or $155M per year for 8 years), we will now compute the Present Value of this amount using the following formula:

FVN = FV1= PV × (1 +I)N = $500 x (1 + 0.08) = $500 x 1.08 = $540

After attaining a degree in business studies, my career options will grow. Within the next five years, I can see two attractive options available:

For Ben to be indifferent, I needed to change the amount that he receives from his current position until the present value is equal to attending Wilton University. The initial salary should be $213,221.01 annually.

The actual production would begin in the third quarter of this year, therefore only half year’s depreciation should be counted on Equipment and IT communication in 2004 (According to Appendix A). The following years (2005-2008) incremental cash flows are computed by the same method. However as the IT equipment and furnishings would be depreciated on a straight line basis over 3 years, thus in year four (2007), there would be only half a year’s deprecation left and after that it will be used up. The last year’s net cash flow in 2009 should be included the extra terminal Value on that year, which includes 24 years’ residual value on building and one year and a half residual value on equipment totaled $2,990,412 with two assumptions of by using residual book values for the building and operating equipment and there will be no further NWS advantage after year 2009. Finally, by obtaining 6 years’ incremental cash-flows and discounting them back to time zero (with the estimate rate of return by 15%) lessing initial cost to get an appealing NPV of $1190528 (Luehrman, p. 3).

An increasing number of business professionals choose to earn their MBAs through the internet. Pursuing an MBA is a great accomplishment. Many undergraduate students graduate and move on to pursue their Masters Degree in their desired field. This marketing plan illustrates the market segments and the strategies of employing to get customers and create a solid revenue stream. Our unique focus is creating opportunities for the fulltime working student that is not able to go to a campus for classes. A twist that gives us an advantage over our competitors is by giving students more options of what is available in picking from a larger selection of majors. From
