Q1
Harry, a friend of yours, is taking a course in economics, and has become confused by some of the terminology because of the way people commonly use the same words.  The economics professor says investment occurs when companies buy equipment and build factories.  Yet Harry has always heard people talk about investing as a method of saving when they put money in the bank or purchase securities.  He’s confused by these dissimilar uses of the word, and has asked you to explain.  After asking for your help, Harry happily states that there’s one thing he does understand perfectly about what the econ prof says, and that is “savings equals investment.”  Since investing in stocks and bonds is also saving money, it’s obvious that savings equals investment!
Write a brief explanation to help Harry out.

Q2
 
A business can be valued by capitalizing its earnings stream (see example 6.15 in textbook).
lasher, w. r. (2013). practical financial management, 7th ed, cengage publishing

  • How might you use the same idea to value securities, especially the stock of large publicly held companies?
  • Is there a way to calculate a value that could be compared to the stock’s market price that would tell an investor whether it’s a good buy?  (If the market price is lower than the calculated value, the stock is a bargain.)
  • What financial figures associated with shares of stock might be used in the calculation.  Consider the per share figures and ratios discussed in chapter 3 including EPS, dividends, book value per share etc.
  • Does one measure make more sense than the others?
  • What factors would make a stock worth more or less than your calculated value?

In at least one and half page, Use size 12, Times New Roman font. 3 references  with APA 7 citation

Contemplate what you need to consider when motivating students to  work with a partner or a small group. Think about how your specific  instructions in class reflect your teaching philosophy. For example,  will you give learners direct instructions to do each step of the task  or will you give them some general ideas and let them create their  project?

Write instructions (no more than 3–4 steps) for one mini partner or  group activity about one basic concept that would be taught in a CACREP graduate counseling course.-  (See these guideliness and standards — https://www.cacrep.org/for-programs/2016-cacrep-standards/
Provide a rationale or theory to support  the choice of activity and ways in which this activity will promote  learner motivation.
List two challenges that could occur with this  activity and how you would monitor and adjust during class to  accommodate the different student issues and needs.
Use current (within 5–7 years) primary scholarly resources to support statements.

Consider the following case study:

Patient AO has a history of obesity and has recently gained 9 pounds. The patient has been diagnosed with hypertension and hyperlipidemia. Drugs currently prescribed include the following:

· Atenolol 12.5 mg daily

· Doxazosin 8 mg daily

· Hydralazine 10 mg qid

· Sertraline 25 mg daily

· Simvastatin 80 mg daily

To prepare:

  • Review      this week’s media presentation on hypertension and hyperlipidemia, as well      as Chapters 19 and 20 of the Arcangelo and Peterson text.
  • Select      one one the following factors: genetics, gender, ethnicity, age, or      behavior factors.
  • Reflect      on how the factor you selected might influence the patient’s      pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic processes.
  • Consider      how changes in the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic processes might      impact the patient’s recommended drug therapy.
  • Think      about how you might improve the patient’s drug therapy plan based on the      pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic changes. Reflect on whether you would      modify the current drug treatment or provide an alternative treatment      option for the patient.

With these thoughts in mind:

Post an explanation of how the factor you selected might influence the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic processes in the patient from the case study. Then, describe how changes in the processes might impact the patient’s recommended drug therapy. Finally, explain how you might improve the patient’s drug therapy plan.

Crime and justice are subjects that are frequently presented on television. Primetime television shows, soap operas, music videos, and cartoons often portray images of crime and criminal justice in a sensational manner or one of negativity. The pictures of police brutality and mistrust of law officials is prevalent because of the reality of cases that exist, especially in an era where information can be dispersed quickly and immediately via technology.
For this assignment, you will analyze 6 examples of popular media (e.g., TV, movies, radio, or print) that you have seen that depict the police, courts, and correctional components of the criminal justice system. You will need to select 2 examples for each for the three components of criminal justice: law enforcement, judiciary, and corrections. In your answers to the following questions, you can provide academic or real-life criminal justice examples to support and enhance your answers to each question.
In a 2–3-page paper, address all of the following topics for each of your media examples with the use of headings and subheadings:

  • In what setting does your media example present the component that you have selected? For example, Miami Vice was primarily a law enforcement show that focused on vice (such as drugs and prostitution).
  • In what ways does your media example portray the criminal justice professionals in a positive or negative light? Provide specific examples to support your position. For example, an argument could be made that Miami Vice glamorized the life of a vice detective.
  • What stages of the criminal justice process are depicted in the media example? Why do you think the focus is on these stages? For example, Miami Vice depicted law enforcement investigations, engagement with criminals, and arrests.
  • Do you think these images are fair and realistic representations of current-day criminal justice? Why or why not?
Based on “Case Study: Fetal Abnormality” and the required topic study materials, write a 750-1,000-word reflection that answers the following questions:

  2. Which theory or theories are being used by Jessica, Marco, Maria, and Dr. Wilson to determine the moral status of the fetus? What from the case study specifically leads you to believe that they hold the theory you selected?
  3. How does the theory determine or influence each of their recommendations for action?
  4. What theory do you agree with? Why? How would that theory determine or influence the recommendation for action?

Remember to support your responses with the topic study materials.
While APA style is not required for the body of this assignment, solid academic writing is expected, and documentation of sources should be presented using APA formatting guidelines,    https://www.khanacademy.org/partner-content/wi-phi/wiphi-value-theory/wiphi-ethics/v/moral-status

Discussion 1: The Influence of Mission and Vision on Planning

As you read the following mission statements, think about what you might deduce about each organization:“Nurses advancing our profession to improve health for all,” American Nurses Association“The American Red Cross prevents and alleviates human suffering in the face of emergencies by mobilizing the power of volunteers and the generosity of donors,” American Red Cross“The mission of Southwest Airlines is dedication to the highest quality of Customer Service delivered with a sense of warmth, friendliness, individual pride, and Company Spirit,” Southwest Airlines“To inspire hope and contribute to health and well-being by providing the best care to every patient through integrated clinical practice, education and research,” Mayo Clinic“Provide telehealth solutions and executive medical research management to enhance and support military healthcare and promote innovative medical technologies,” Telemedicine & Advanced Technology Research Center (TATRC)“Google’s mission is to organize the world’s information and make it universally accessible and useful,” GoogleAn organization’s mission describes its core purpose. In partnership with the organization’s vision, which communicates a future-focused direction, the mission provides a basis for planning and decision making at all levels of the organization.For this Discussion, you compare mission and vision statements from multiple organizations and consider how these statements relate to planning.To prepare:Review the information related to the planning hierarchy and mission and vision statements in this week’s Learning Resources.Research the mission and vision statements of three different types of organizations: a for-profit health care organization, a not-for-profit health care organization, and an organization outside of health care. As you examine the organizations’ mission and vision statements, consider the following:                   How effectively do the mission statements articulate the organization’s purpose?How effectively do the vision statements reflect future aims?Do the mission and vision statements convey who (which groups) the organizations serve? Do they indicate obligations to various stakeholders?Are the statements an appropriate length?What do you glean about how leaders in health care and in other industries envision and convey mission and vision?What do you discern about the interdisciplinary nature of crafting mission and vision statements by looking across organizations, including those outside of health care?Identify key insights you have gained by comparing the mission and vision statements of these three organizations.Consider how an organization’s mission and vision relate to the planning hierarchy. For each organization you have selected, think about how the mission and vision could or should influence planning. What elements of each mission and vision stand out as especially significant?
By Day 3Post a comparison of the mission and vision statements of the three organizations selected. Explain how specific elements of each organization’s mission and vision statements might inform planning in that organization. Include references/links for the organizations’ mission and vision statements in your post.
