...Guidelines for Preparing Your Executive Report Contents 1. Title Page: the title should clearly and succinctly communicate the central focus of the paper. The name of every person who is to receive credit for the project must appear on the title page. No name, no credit. 2. Table of contents: List of each of the major sections, including references and appendices, and specify the page on which they begin. (-5 points) 3. Executive Summary: Provide a 100-150 word summary of the purpose and outcome of the project. This goes on a separate page that follows the table of content. Bullet points can be highly effective to summarize findings. (-5 points) 4. Body: The structure for the body of the report is described in detail below. 5. References: Whenever you use someone else’s idea or work in developing an argument or providing an explanation, you must cite the author(s). To do otherwise is plagiarism. You can impress yourself, your instructor and client by citing material from CMST 311. (-5 points) 6. Tables and Figures: You may have numerical data or illustrations that you need to present. If so, these things go after the references; tables first, figures second. If it has numbers on it, then it is a table. If it is a graphical illustration, then it is a figure (e.g., pie chart). Number and title each table/figure so that you can easily refer to them in the text of your paper. For example, “As Table 1 shows…” 7. Appendices: This is where all of the materials...

...#67766089 University of British Columbia MGMT 390 Section 003 February 10, 2013 Norine Webster At the beginning of the term, shortly after the assignment was announced, I set up and led a few meetings to get everyone started and organized on what needs to be done, during which we discussed the individual and group sections of the paper. My sections of the paper were the value chain of the industry and the supplier section of the porter’s five forces. I had good communication with the team and I helped out two of the other team members in finalizing their sections of the paper. Another group member and myself did most of the work formatting and editing the final paper after everyone had their part completed. Afterwards I was in charge with any last minute spell checks, reference checks and submitting the final report. At the time I thought it would be a good idea to have everyone’s input in deciding sections of the paper. In hindsight however, the initial meetings were a bit redundant as the individual sections could have been assigned since no one had any preferences. My section of the paper was completed a day after the discussed due date that the group set, so I should have spent more time and effort in meeting this goal. The individual work submitted by some of the group members could have used more work, so a lot of time was spent fixing grammatical mistakes and rewriting sentenced to make them more coherent. For Part 2, I will personally do my best to complete my part...

...How to write an Academic Business Report Tessa Owens Writing an Academic Business Report Writing a report may be divided into six broad areas: 1. identification and acquisition of relevant sources 2. preliminary research, which normally takes the form of reading and making notes and possibly visits to organisations for primary data 3. focused thinking about your report 4. writing your report plan 5. writing your first draft 6. producing the final report You should form the habit of looking very closely at the report title at this stage to see exactly what it is asking you. Do not forget that the same report may be answered in a variety of different ways, THERE IS NO ONE CORRECT ANSWER TO ANY GIVEN QUESTION. What is always required however is some kind of evidence to support the points you wish to make, whether it is evidence from a text, a journal, or in certain cases a primary source. At this point you should be beginning to think in terms of the argument you wish to make and the evidence you might use. You will not need to use all the notes you have compiled as a result of your research, but you should never regard your research as wasted even if you don’t use it, as it will increase your knowledge and understanding of the subject which will be reflected in your later work. Sometimes the kind of evidence you have gathered may influence the line of argument you choose to take. At other times you will be clear from the first what line of argument...

...SIXTH GRADE BOTTLE ROCKET LAB THIRD TRIMESTER LAB REPORT Objective: During the completion of this activity, you will demonstrate science processing skills, an ability to use technological design, and an ability to identify factors that affect motion and forces. Background Information: Bottle rockets are excellent devices for investigating "Newton's Three Laws of Motion": 1st Law - A rocket will remain on the launch pad until an unbalanced force is exerted, propelling the rocket upward. 2nd Law - The amount of force depends upon how much air is pumped inside the rocket. You can increase the force further by adding a small amount of water, which increases the mass expelled by the air pressure in the rocket. 3rd Law - Finally, the action force of the air (and water) as it rushes out of the nozzle creates an equal and opposite reaction force propelling the rocket upward. Ask a Question? How can pressurized water and a soda bottle be used to build a rocket? Form a Hypothesis If a bottle rocket is filled with XXX ml of water using XXX psi of applied pressure, then it should reach an altitude of XXX meters. Water LevelLESS THAN 1000ml | PressureLESS THAN80 PSI | AltitudeLESS THAN300 Meters | Procedure Materials 2 L Soda Bottle with cap Foam Board Modeling Clay Poster Board Duct Tape Scissors Water Bucket Rocket Launcher Altimeter *Remove or add materials that do/do not apply to “your” experiment.* Conduct an Experiment 1.

...CORPORATE INCOME TAX PROVISION Advanced Tax Accounting Professor Boucree 18 November 2013 Income Tax Provision: Overview Every company is obligated to file income taxes at the end of the year. This often happens when it reports a profit and needs to pay the taxes. There are also some instances when the company reports a loss and pays no tax. A provision on income taxes considers the possibility of both occurring and furthermore impacts the company’s net income calculation. The provision for income tax appears on the company’s final income statement. From there, the company can decide whether or not to pay their taxes all at once or make periodic payments on whatever the amount may be. “What the final income statement does is represents the version that the company will publish and distribute to investors and creditors. When calculating a provision for income tax, companies must consider differences between financial and tax accounting.” (The Motley Fool 2013) Basic Process of Completing a Provision: According to, Thomson Reuters, the following steps are used in making sure that the provision is done as accurately as possible. It appears as though this is the best way of having the provisions be more transparent as to the information being stated. (Thomson Reuters 2013) 1. Management Interview Form—ensures provision is completed with respect to consideration of all relevant information. 2. Standard Tax Information Reporting—ensures that the Tax Manager...
