Purpose of Assignment 

The purpose of this assignment is for students to learn how to apply Operations Forecasting.

Assignment Steps 

Resources: Microsoft® Excel® (Template provided)

Select a business operations dataset from the internet, which can be used for forecasting what the results may be at a future state (monthly [for two years], quarterly [for five years], annually [for 20 years]. (See example in the Template). Use caution in using the template, as some of the cells contain formatted functions for performing calculations. You should only need to enter data into Column A and B only. Review the template and the associated data. This should give you an idea of the types of data you will require, and what the results columns reveal. You are required to provide an APA formatted reference to the location of the source data (Do Not just enter the Web Link). The returned work from previous week's work, should give you some insight as to what an APA reference should look like.  

Develop a run over a given period, upper limit and lower limit as to confidence in the forecast using Microsoft® Excel®.Template

· Compare and contrast each quadrant of the forecast.

· Evaluate the impact this forecast would have on the firm from a financial metrics standpoint, by writing a 300-word report in which you describe your forecasting project and what it means in terms of favorable or unfavorable forecast and why or why not..

Format your assignment consistent with APA guidelines.

Interview Questions

Interview Questions    Imagine that you have been granted an interview by a world-renowned, female religious leader. What would you like to know concerning her beliefs, her struggles, and her successes? Two of the suggested readings would be excellent sources for choosing a religious leader for this project. (You will not actually interview this person, so feel free to choose any well-known, female religious leader.)    Compile a list of 10 questions that would tell you more about her religion and why she chose to be a leader in it. Do not ask any “yes/no” questions. Good interview questions take just as much critical thinking to develop as answering the questions does. Your questions should demonstrate that you have some knowledge of her religious tradition. Your questions should dig deeper to get to information that cannot be found in the textbook or on the internet, but use that research to guide “the digging” in the interview.     Below are some possible topics for exploration in your research and in forming your questions. You are not limited to these topics:    • Textual interpretations/misunderstandings  • Cultural expectations of women  • Influence of globalization  • Influence of other religions  • Religious traditions/practices  • Effects on her personal life  • Pressures of being a pioneer  • Support system    Click here for a list of tips for writing interview questions.    As this interview is for an academic setting, you must use APA citations and references to support the research you conducted to create the 10 questions. You do not need a title page, running head or page numbers for this assignment, but be sure to put your name in the top left hand corner along with the date. Your interview title should include the name of the potential interviewee, and your references should be on a separate page. Use double spacing and Times New Roman size 12 font.

CIS 336 Enterprise Architecture Week 2 Assignment

CIS 336 Enterprise Architecture Week 2 Assignment

Competition has, since the 90s, led to wider gaps between industry leaders and laggards. There are more “winner-take-all” environments and greater churns among industry sector rivals. We have witnessed sharp increases in quality and quantity of IT (Information Technology) investments. We’ve seen striking competitive dynamics, particularly in sectors that spend the most on IT. Some of the competitive dynamics models include the Destroy Your Business (DYB) strategy, the Grow Your Business (GYB) strategy, the Information Systems (IS) and strategic advantage, and the social business strategy.

Write a four to five (4-5) page paper in which you:

1. Compare and contrast the DYB and GYB strategies in terms of the ability to sustain a business in the marketplace over the long term, to be competitive against rivals, and profitability.

2. Examine the “cannibalization” strategy and determine if it is or is not a better strategy compared to the DYB strategy for growth, competitiveness, and market leadership. Provide two (2) business examples.   

3. Determine whether or not changes in business strategy should entail reassessment of IS. Provide three (3) reasons to support your position.

4. Examine how firms can use social IT in alignment with organizational strategy and IS strategy. Consider collaborative capabilities, what, how, and who should use social IT for a social business strategy.

5. Use at three (3) quality resources in this assignment. Note: Wikipedia and similar Websites do not qualify as quality resources. 

Your assignment must follow these formatting requirements:

· Be typed, double spaced, using Times New Roman font (size 12), with one-inch margins on all sides; citations and references must follow APA or school-specific format. Check with your professor for any additional instructions.

· Include a cover page containing the title of the assignment, the student’s name, the professor’s name, the course title, and the date. The cover page and the reference page are not included in the required assignment page length.

Due Jan.9

4 full pages

APA citing from U.S. Internet sources that are free for all to access (more is better)

List and define 2 terms or conditions from a Financial instrument :

CHOOSE 2 of these: DEED, NOTE OR A MORTGAGE.

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Write 2 pages for each term explaining the meaning of the term, why the term is important, to whom the term is important (buyer, seller, real estate agent or lender) and list any important issues and concerns, or advantages and disadvantages. See Chapter 6 for examples of finance instruments. Use your own words and analysis to describe the terms. Avoid merely copying the definitions.

Choose a topic of personal interest or connection to you. Make sure you narrow your topic down by focusing on one of its specific aspects or areas. Before you do this, you need to start your literature review (research) to become more knowledgeable about the broad topic that tickles your curiosity and to tease out its various aspects. This assignment will allow you to go deeper in your understanding of your specific, narrowed-down topic; choosing too broad a topic will result in a superficial essay. On the basis of the evidence that you have found in your research, put together an essay outline in which you define a thesis and all the elements that need to be addressed to prove it. Complete a 2000–2200 word term paper on your chosen topic. You will be expected to address your topic using the conceptual framework developed in the course, within a relevant sense of history, and drawing on sound documented arguments and sociological evidence as required. Question: In what way has Canada's response to its First Nations evolved? Focusing on Mental Health REMEMBER: Note: Keep in mind that regardless of the topic or research question you choose, you need to develop a clear thesis and provide evidence from your research to support your argument (i.e., to defend your position).

James was pleased that his recommendation to acquire the software was followed.

A member of management stated, "The software company will never know the difference and, besides, everyone else seems to be pirating software.
