GET A PROFESSIONAL PAPER DONE BY AN EXPERT

I need my final paper about a company from which you can buy shares (for example Apple, adidas or Nike)+ plus a 25 Slides Power Point about the paper. I will pay 120$ bonus for Power PointComponents:This project consists of three major activities:Conduct secondary research (i.e. library, internet, etc)Write research paper computing the financial ratios yourself.Prepare a Power Point Presentation supporting your Research Paper.Due Date and Time:Papers and presentation are due at the beginning the final class meeting and are to be submitted in Week 7 in the same manner you submitted other assignments..The Project to be addressed by the Paper:You have just graduated from Keiser University’s MBA program and have secured a position as a fund manager for a well known investment banking house. You have been given $25 million to manage/invest in a single stock. The fund is a pension/retirement fund so its perspective is long term with moderate risk of loss of capital and a required return of 9% per annum. Your assignment is to determine if the fund you are managing should invest $25 million dollars in the stock of the company you have selected for your first analysis/investment decision. Select a publicly traded US based company. Do not select a bank or financial intermediary (i.e Investment Bank, Insurance Company, Brokerage House etc). Your decision to invest or not invest will be supported by the research paper and a Power Point Presentation.NOTE: Most of the data needed for this assignment can be found in Yahoo/finance. Go to Yahoo/finance, select your company, and view the table of contents on the left side of the page.Your analysis, based on the concepts covered in this course, will address each of the following:Business Strategy Analysis: Develop an understanding of the business and competitive strategies of the company. Which of the three generic competitive strategies does the company utilize (low cost provider, differentiation, focus)? This should be covered in not more than three paragraphs. Do not spend time writing a history of the company. This is an analysis, not a history lesson.Accounting Analysis: Do the accounting practices adopted by the company generally reflect an accurate picture of the economic performance of the company? Did your research find any public announcements of restatement of earnings or other financial statements that would indicate that the financial statements may be of dubious value? This can be done by reviewing the company’s 8K filings with the SEC (a mandatory requirement for this paper). These filings can generally be found on the company’s website under Investor Relations – SEC filings.Financial Analysis: Analyze financial ratios and cash flow measures of the company relative to its historical performance. For purposes of this research paper a 2 year look back is sufficient and required. You must use at least 10 of the ratios noted on page 119 of the text including all four of the profitability ratios.Prospective Analysis: Develop forecasted performance measures and list the assumptions associated with your forecast. List your assumptions and reasons for your forecast. You may also cite the works of other analysts who have published forecasted earnings for the time frame you are addressing. (Hint: take a look at Yahoo/finance – analysts opinionConclusion: Will you or will you not invest $25 million in this particular Company? Support your conclusion? Remember a negative conclusion is just as valid and valuable as a positive conclusion.Conducting Library Research:Participate in a research orientation offered by the graduate librarian.Conduct a search for sources that offer accurate information on your company. A minimum of six legitimate and valid relevant resources are required.Note: An excellent place to start is in Keiser University’s library LIRN database.

Individual company information may be found in Value Line and Morningstar. Additional information can generally be found on the company’s website under “Investor Relations”. Here you will find SEC 10-K, 10Q, 8K’s and other filings. You may also wish to visit the website of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) for filings by your company.Avoid general Internet key word searches. Wikipedia and other unauthorized sources are inappropriate for graduate work. Articles noting up to date information is such sources as The Wall Street Journal, Barron’s or Business Week may be useful in addressing the appropriateness of current strategies, resource pricing, etc. given market conditions or the status of competitors.Writing the Paper:The following are general guidelines for format and organization.Format:Minimum of ten pages (including self prepared exhibits), with numbered pages.Typed, double spaced.New Times Roman (i.e. business) font, 12 point.Margins – 1.25 inches.Include boldface headings and subheadings.Note source citations as appropriate under APA guideline.Organization:Cover page – Name of paper, your name, course number and name, date submitted.Introduction – A brief statement of the purpose of the paper and explanation of its organization.
