ScenarioYou are the proud owner of Wiley Brothers Traveling Circus. It was left to you in your dear Uncle Fred’s will. One Ferris wheel, one large big top tent, assorted animals, 27 circus people, and the vans and trucks needed for transportation. It’s been financially holding its own but after a year you have decided to expand, upgrade your equipment, and hire a headline trapeze artist from France. You need an influx of cash to make this happen. You have two large private investors and a Florida theme park that would like to invest but wants you to winter every year at their landmark park.RequirementsUsing your own numbers the sheet should include some of the following; profits, income, proceeds, earnings, wages, box office; and expenses, overheads, fees, operating expenses, and fixed costs, etc.Create an interactive spreadsheet that allows the viewer to change some of the critical numbers to realize the possible risks involved with different variables. As you complete this assignment, be sure to Ask Risk Manager questions. For example how would an increase/decrease in ticket prices affect the financial picture? Does the cost increase with more traveling? How long might the circus stay in one city before the cost of feed, salaries, etc. did not keep up with the box office?

Improve Relationships and Unit Cohesiveness with Effective Communication SkillsConflict in relationships and in a workplace is virtually inevitable. In itself, conflict is not a problem; however, how it is handled, can bring people together or tear them apart. Poor communication skills, disagreements and misunderstandings can be a source of anger and distance, or a springboard to stronger relationships and unit cohesion. As a supervisor, it is your responsibility to identify and resolve conflict within your sphere of control. You observe that two of your employees are in conflict. They do not speak to each other, even to give the greeting of the day and their attitudes and behavior are starting to affect the entire office. Other people in the office are starting to “take sides” and the animosity is affecting job performance. Remembering that the goal of effective communication skills should be mutual understanding and finding a solution that pleases both parties, not “winning” the argument or ”being right,), what steps would you take to resolve this situation? Be specific about the communication skills you would employ, why, and what results you expect.

Initial Post Instructions

This week we continue our study of factoring. As you become more familiar with factoring, you will notice there are some special factoring problems that follow specific patterns. These patterns are known as:

  • a difference of squares;
  • a perfect square trinomial;
  • a difference of cubes; and
  • a sum of cubes.

Choose two of the forms above and explain the pattern that allows you to recognize the binomial or trinomial as having special factors. Illustrate with examples of a binomial or trinomial expression that may be factored using the special techniques you are explaining. Make sure that you do not use the same example a classmate has already used!

Follow-Up Post Instructions

Respond to at least two peers in a substantive, content-specific way. Further the dialogue by providing more information and clarification.

The Hudson corporation has a $15 million bond obligation outstanding which is considering refunding. Though the bonds were initially issued a 9 percent, originally issued for 15 years and have 10 years remaining. The new issue would be for 10 years. There is a 9 percent call premium on the old issue. The under on the old issue was $450,000. The company is in a net 30 percent tax bracket, and it will use a 5 percent discount rate(rounded aftertax cost of debt) to analyze the refunding decision.

Should the old issue be refunded with new debt?

a. Calculate the present value of total outflows.Call Premium = 9%*18000000 = 1620000Underwriting cost = 530000Present value of total outflows = 2150000b. Calculate the present value of total…
