 The phone at Merman’s Costume Rentals rings, and Annie Oaklea, head of costume inventory, picks it up and answers a query by saying, “Let me take a look at my inventory cards. Sorry, it looks as if there are only two male bear suits in inventory, with extra growly expressions at that. We’ve had a great run on bears. When do you need them? Perhaps one will be returned. No, can’t do it, sorry. Would you like these two sent, regardless? The name of your establishment? Manhattan Theatre Company? London branch? Right. Delightful company! I see by our account card that you’ve rented from us before. And how long will you be needing the costumes?” Figure 7.C1 is a data flow diagram that sets the stage for processing of costume rentals from Merman’s. It shows rentals such as the one Annie is doing for Manhattan Theatre Company. After conversing for another few moments about shop policy on alterations, Annie concludes her conversation by saying, “You are very lucky to get the bears on such short notice. I’ve got another company reserving them for the first week in July. I’ll put you down for the bear suits, and they’ll be taken to you directly by our courier. As always, prompt return will save enormous trouble for us all.” Merman’s costume rental enterprise is located in London’s world-famous West End theatre district. When a theatre or television production company lacks the resources (either time or expertise) to construct a costume in its own shop, the cry goes up to “Ring up Merman’s!” and it proceeds to rent what it needs with a minimum of fuss. Merman’s shop (more aptly visualized as a warehouse) goes on for three floors full of costume racks, holding thousands of costumes hung together by historical period, then grouped as to whether they are for men or women, and then by costume size. 1 Most theatre companies are able to locate precisely what they need through Annie’s capable assistance. 

Now tailor-make the return return of the data flow diagram given earlier. Remember that timely returns are critical for keeping the spotlight on customs rented from Merman's

In the past, some students have asked about the homework problem 12-7, and the homework for Chapter 13. I enjoy getting good questions – that way I can provide some help.

For 12-7, I have attached an Excel spreadsheet for your review. Please see the comments that I have made in different cells.

Chapter 12: Problems 4(a-d), 7(a-b), 8(a-b)

4. Currently, the dividend-payout ratio (D/E) for the aggregate market is 60 percent, the required return (k) is 11 percent, and the expected growth rate for dividends (g) is 5 percent.

a. Compute the current earnings multiplier.

b. You expect the D/E payout ratio to decline to 50 percent, but you assume there will be no other changes. What will be the P/E?

c. Starting with the initial conditions, you expect the dividend-payout ratio to be constant, the rate of inflation to increase by 3 percent, and the growth rate to increase by 2 percent. Compute the expected P/E.

d. Starting with the initial conditions, you expect the dividend-payout ratio to be constant, the rate of inflation to decline by 3 percent, and the growth rate to decline by 1 percent. Compute the expected P/E.

7. Given the three EPS estimates in Problem 6, you are also given the following estimates related to the market earnings multiple:

a. Based on the three EPS and P/E estimates, compute the high, low, and consensus intrinsic market value for the S&P Industrials Index in 2013.

b. Assuming that the S&P Industrials Index at the beginning of the year was priced at 2,050, compute your estimated rate of return under the three scenarios from Part a. Assuming your required rate of return is equal to the consensus, how would you weight the S&P Industrials Index in your global portfolio?

8.You are analyzing the U.S. equity market based upon the S&P Industrials Index and using the present value of free cash flow to equity technique. Your inputs are as follows:

a. Assuming that the current value for the S&P Industrials Index is 2,050, would you underweight, overweight, or market weight the U.S. equity market?

b. Assume that there is a 1 percent increase in the rate of inflation—what would be the market's value, and how would you weight the U.S. market? State your assumptions.

Chapter 13: Problems 4, 5, 7(a-c)

4. Evaluate your industry in terms of the five factors that determine an industry's intensity of competition. Based on this analysis, what are your expectations about the industry's profitability in the short run (1 or 2 years) and the long run (5 to 10 years)?

5. Using the links below or another source, plot the latest 10-year history of the operating profit margin for the S&P Industrials Index or another aggregate market series versus an industry of your choice. Is there a positive, negative, or zero correlation?

http://www.yardeni.com/Pub/SP500margin.pdf

7. Prepare a table listing the variables that influence the earnings multiplier for your chosen industry and the market index series for the most recent 10 years.

a. Do the average dividend-payout ratios for your industry and the market index differ? How should the dividend payout influence the difference between the multipliers?

b. Based on the fundamental factors, would you expect the risk for this industry to differ from that for the market? In what direction, and why? Calculate the industry beta using monthly data for five years. Based on the fundamental factors and the computed systematic risk, how does this industry's risk compare to the market? What effect will this difference in risk have on the industry multiplier relative to the market multiplier?

c. Analyze and discuss the different components of growth (retention rate, total asset turnover, total assets/equity, and profit margin) for your chosen industry and a market index during the most recent 10 years. Based on this analysis, how would you expect the growth rate for your industry to compare with the growth rate for the market index? How would this difference in expected growth affect the multiplier?

Discussion: Transitioning From a Task Focus to Knowledge Work (graded)

Class, do you think that it being knowledge-oriented requires that one have experience? Can a new grad have that skill-set from perhaps a previous non-nursing career that can then be transferred into their nursing career?

The course outcome guiding our discussion this week is CO #5: 
Explore various nurse roles, competencies, and skills in informatics. (POs 2, 11)
——-

Consider the fact that nurses are knowledge workers; how does nursing move from a task-completion focus to an outcomes-achievement focus?

Things to consider as you write your response….Has there been a time when you were strictly task-oriented?  Is being mainly task-oriented a condition of the practice of nursing as a whole?  How can we transition to more knowledge integrated, outcomes-achievement focused practice? How is Nursing Informatics related to/utilized for this movement toward outcomes-achievement focused practice?

How do you get involved at your organization now and/or how can you get involved to help this transition? Who are the key stakeholders you need to get buy in from? There are always politics involved in figuring out who the key decision makers are within any facility.

Discussion Proper: The Relationship between Organizations and Employees

Every company has its own perspective on the relationship between it and its employees. The perspectives vary based on core assumptions. Chapter 6, in your text, compares two organizations, Apple and Nucor. Apple focuses more on seeing employees "as tools" to accomplish goals for the organization while Nucor is a company that believes its employees have individual needs that can be aligned with the company's profits and goals.

Review this week's resources and study the readings on Apple and Nucor.

Prepare your discussion in the following:

1. An explanation of which organization's (Apple or Nucor) perspective you think is more effective. Justify your position. Be sure to include the motivation theories that are relevant as well as Morgan's psychic prison metaphor in your explanation.

2. Provide two more alternative suggestions that organizations can see their employees for greater productivity and performance – Support your suggestions with recent academic journals in each case.

Note: In addition to the resources provided this week, also provide two more recent academic resources within 5 years (2012-2016) in APA style and citation format to support your topic.
