department of a large organisation. The Director of Finance has asked for a report

to see any advantages of purchasing over leasing capital assets by the organisation in the
environment of risk and uncertainty caused by Brexit.
Requirement: Write a report using examples considering the evaluation of the choice
between borrowing to purchase and leasing an asset. Your report should consider the
following aspects of investment appraisal. How might the before and after tax costs of

investment in an environment of risk and uncertainty?

Description: As a class, we went to Oakland Lake in Bayside, New York to walk in a natural green space.
Some of us uploaded photographs to the app iNaturalist in order to identify flora and fauna, while
others took detailed notes on what we observed. To prepare for our walk, we read two articles: “Alley
Pond Park: Oakland Lake” and “Oakland Lake, Queens,” about the history of this green space. We also
closely read and discussed excerpts from Walden, a nonfiction work that recounts Henry David
Thoreau’s thoughts and reflections on choosing to “live deep’ by going to “the woods” for a period of
two years. These readings and activity help us to experience ourselves as part of the natural world.

Essay 2

Structural unemployment can occur when workers do not have the skills that employers are looking for. Some people are concerned that technological innovations (such as artificial intelligence) will massively increase structural unemployment over the next few decades.  

• Do you think a massive increase in structural unemployment is likely? Or are these fears unrealistic?  

• Retraining structurally unemployed workers is one proposed solution to structural unemployment. However, worker retraining programs have not been particularly effective. Why do you think this is? Is there some way to effectively retrain workers who are structurally unemployed?
