...statement analysis includes the balance sheet, statement of retained earnings, cash flow statement and the income statement (Fridson & Alvarez, 2011). Users of financial statements include management, investors, creditors, regulatory authorities and the government. Ratio analysis is a standard financial analysis method that involves the calculation of several proportions to determine a firm’s performance in key areas. The ratios are categorized as profitability ratios, solvency ratios, liquidity ratios, asset management ratios and market value ratios. The purpose of this paper is to conduct a ratio analysis of Advocate Obligated Group Health Care for the year ended December 31, 2014, and come up with a conclusion of the firm’s financial health. 1. Current Ratio The current ratio is a liquidity ratio that evaluates a firm’s ability to meet its short-term obligations. Its formula is as follows: Current ratio = Current assets/ Current liabilities The reason I chose this ratio is that hospitals mostly buy goods on credit, and suppliers evaluate this ratio to determine whether to extend credit to the organization or not. A high ratio implies that the company can meet its maturing short-term debts. The most appropriate current ratio is 2 (Henry & Robinson, 2015). A current ratio of less than 1 implies that a company would struggle to meet its obligations. The current ratios for 2013 and 2014 are calculated as shown below: | 2014 | 2013 | Current assets | 1322268 | 1524917...

...Azarkan Hind In partial fulfillment of INT 4300 – Internship School of Business Administration Optimization of the Trucks Transit in Marsa Maroc Terminal Dr. Youssef Boulaksil Fall Term 2013 Executive Summary The container terminal is a flat modal form that binds the ship to truck, train or to another vessel in the case of transshipment. This connection is done via interfaces: truck / area inter exchange, train / buffer zone, ship / dock. Thus, the major container flows are channeled to or from this system are the result or the source of a multitude of internal flow system (sorting, inspection, shifting, connection, full containers, empty containers). These flows are treated with different tools and different locations around the terminal. That means, the container terminal is to optimize the processing of massive volumes of containers in order to achieve economies of scale (749,000 TEUs'' 20-foot equivalent'' per year), improving the use of resources and more special equipments that are expensive. In fact, responsible for handling division have the prospect of having a solution to balancing and optimization of the supply chain through the design of equipment used (tractors) to import and export in delivery to the end customer. My final project study is in the heart of this approach. It has as an objective, the study of solutions that meet the diverse needs. To do this, I had some operational research to minimize the process of delivery of containers...

Course: ISM 13 Module 3 Pricing Authors: Blume, Anna 900711 Collu, Giulia 850511 Tutor & Examiner: Hand in date: 1 Caesar, Peter 15-01-15 Primozone Abstract This paper is aimed at providing a comparison of the total cost of owner ship (TCO) of two comparable products through the tool of a lifecycle cost analysis (LCCA). The compared products are ozone generators from Primozone and Ozonia. Firstly the importance of pricing is presented followed by the discussion of the four most common pricing approaches and the best pricing method according to literature to achieve high margins is introduced. The described topics will be explained in detail in the theoretical framework followed by a comprehensive description of how value based pricing can be put into practice through economic value analysis and quantification and be therefore used as sales arguments based on the LCCA presented in Appendix A. The parameters for the LCCA were chosen with the help of the head of sales of Primozone, Jürgen Bischhaus. The collected data are presented in Chapter 4 and implemented into the excel spreadsheet in Appendix A. Several changing parameter scenarios were applied with the result that Primozone outperforms Ozonia in each of them except energy consumption, which are marginally higher, but not significantly. This also results in the ability...
