...Unit 3 Individual Project Risk and Capital Yvonnia Carter American Intercontinental University August 10, 2013 Introduction This is to introduce how theoretical stock prices are calculated and how these prices react to market forces such as risk and interest rates (AIU, 2013). The first thing to do is find an estimate of the risk-free rate of interest (krf) and the value for the market risk premium. In this case, the (krf) is 2.58 and the market risk premium is 9.00%. Using the information from the XYZ Stock Information, these are the current values: ● XYZ’s Beta (B) is 1.64 ● XYZ’s current annual dividend is $0.80 ● XYZ’s 3-year dividend growth rate (g) is 8.2% ● Industry P/E is 23.2 ● XYZ’s EPS is $4.87 To get the required rate of return you use the following CAPM formula: Beta stock times (market risk premium minus risk free rate of interest) plus risk free rate of interest equals the required rate of return, so therefore (B)1.64* ((KM) 9.00% - (KRF) 2.58) +(KRF) 2.58=13.1088% 0r $13.11 (Ultimatecalculators.com, 2013). To find the current stock price for XYZ, use the following Constant Growth Model (CGM) formula: Current annual dividend times (1 plus growth rate) divided by required return rate minus growth rate, so therefore (D) $0.80 * (1 + (G) 8.2%) / (KS) 13.1088% - (G) 8.2% = (PO) $17.63 (Ultimatecalculators.com, 2013). Are there any differences? Yes, there are some differences. As you can see from the stock information sheet,...

As my company action plan will employ the market mix, and the essentials of the four P’s that will enable me access to get the goods and services to the customers that I am targeting in my local area. The action plan is called the “Marketing Mix”. The marketing mix is one of the biggest and most critical decisions that a company can make.

Now that’s a bloody nightmare there.(Fulton et al, 2006) The Origins of the Market Mix Plan It is well known the marketing mix plan created and well defined by McCarthy some forty years ago. It is commonly used to date as the standard outline and set of marketing tools that a firm uses to pursue its marketing objectives or goals (Kotler and Keller, 2006).

...Grade Received, "A" Ownership of the Medical Record Even though the medical record is made up of data pertaining to the patient, the actual document belongs to the doctor. The medical record is in fact an aide developed by the doctor to reinforce patient care, and also benefits the practitioner. When a doctor quits working in a practice that has several doctors, the question of which doctor actually owns which chart may surface. Sadly, there isn’t an actual answer due to the fact that ownership usually relies on very particular data. Usually, to stay away from arguing regarding ownership of medical records, the doctors must come to an agreement before they enter into the multiple-doctor setting. If an agreement is not reached, the doctors will have to depend on basic business laws, and these types of arguments can end up being very ugly and expensive. Normally, under state business law, work-related products of employees belong to the employers. With that being said, in a practice where one doctor employs another doctor, and a prior agreement is not made, the employee doctor usually will not own any of his/her patients’ charts; instead, the employer doctor does. Regardless of this, a state’s Medical Board rules state that the employer doctors have to give the employee doctors that leave the data needed to contact the consumers that this doctor has treated over the last two years. In a scenario where there is a partnership, the law usually states that any property...
