6)        Cindy is one of 50 limited partners in a real estate investment LIMITED PARTNERSHIP. The general partner is Evergreen Corporation. Evergreen Corporation invested $500,000.00 in the partnership and each of the limited partners invested $10,000.00, all of whom are natural persons like Cindy. Evergreen has four shareholders. If the real estate limited partnership is dissolved at a time when it has debts (basic past due electric bills, water bills and rent) exceeding assets, which of the following is true?

a.    Because having a corporation means that no partner in the limited partnership has unlimited liability, the partners would have unlimited liability.

b.    Because having a corporation means that no partner in the limited partnership has unlimited liability, the shareholders of the corporation would have unlimited liability

c.    Neither the corporation nor the limited partners would be required to contribute any assets toward the satisfaction of the unpaid obligations of the limited partnership

d.    The limited partners would not need to contribute any amounts to the satisfaction of the debts (but their initial investment of $10,000.00 is subject to loss towards this debt). The corporation would be responsible for the debt of the limited partnership as it is a general partner but the corporation’s individual shareholders would not have personal liability towards the limited partnership debt.

e.    None of the above.

In addition to the state general sales tax, the local sales tax rate is 2% (1% city; 1% community development). They do not keep track of sales tax expenditures for routine purchases (e.g., clothes, prepared foods) but can verify the sales tax on exceptional items (i.e., big-ticket purchases such as the RV).

-Requirements 2017 income tax return (with all appropriate forms schedules) for the Clarks following these guidelines: • Make necessary assumptions for information not given in the problem but needed to complete the return. • The Clarks are employing the same tax return preparer who completed their tax return for the prior year. • The taxpayers have substantiation (e.g., records, receipts) to support all transactions for the year. • If a refund is due, the Clarks want it applied to next year’s tax liability. • The Clarks do not want to contribute to the Presidential Election Campaign Fund

I need help creating a thesis and an outline on Strategy Development for Crossan et al. Prepare this assignment according to the guidelines found in the APA Style Guide. An abstract is required. Two approaches to strategy have been discussed to elucidate the process of strategy development. As the purpose of the strategy in business is important and cannot be overemphasized, so much more is the process by which strategy is developed and identified. A manager must always deal with the four components of a strategy as identified by Crossan et al. (2002), and these are the goals, product market focus, value propositions, and core activities. How the manager tackles these four components in order to craft a strategy that aims to deliver the company bottom line represents how he approaches strategy development. Accordingly, there are many arguments about how strategy should be developed. Crossan et al (2002) observed two contentious issues surrounding strategy formulation, and these are whether strategy should be approached clinically, as in “a well defined, analytical process”, or experientially, as in “trial and error process” guided by a set of patterns from past experiences. Crossan et al (2002) referred to these approaches as “intended strategy” referring to the former, and “emergent strategy” referring to the latter.&nbsp.

It operates with some sort of precision to everything that it does, guided by rules and policies, and where decisions are centrally made by a select few. One can naturally expect that in organizations engaging in a planned approach to strategy, there is no room for spontaneous action and innovation, guided by creativity and out-of-the-box thinking. As has been discussed, Mintzberg (1998, cited by Crossan et al., 2002) has been mentioned to have seen problems in the operationalization of planned strategies.&nbsp.

Carlisle Tire and Rubber, Inc., is considering expanding production to meet potential increases in the demand for one of its tire products. Carlisle’s alternatives are to construct a new plant, expand the existing plant, or do nothing in the short run. The market for this particular tire product may expand, remain stable, or contract. Carlisle’s marketing department estimates the probabilities of these market outcomes as 0.25, 0.35, and 0.40, respectively.

a) Use Precision tree to identify the strategy that maximizes this tires manufacturer’s expected profit.

b) Perform a sensitivity analysis on the optimal decision, letting each of the monetary inputs vary one a time plus or minus 10% from its base value, and summarize your findings. Which of the Inputs appears to have the largest effect on the best solution?

I have solved part a, but I am struggling with what to put in the Sensitivity Analysis Portion in Precision Tree in Excel. If someone could assist, then that would be great
