...IRCO 421B Finance Spring 2013 IRPS, UC San Diego Krislert Samphantharak Assignment 1 Due April 19, 11.59 pm, by email (“Finance B Turnin” on FirstClass) This assignment serves three main objectives. First, it allows you to review various present value and discounting concepts and how to compute them using relevant functions in Excel. Second, it helps you review some crucial concepts in financial accounting that you studied in the last quarter. Finally, it guides you through the calculation of NPV and other investment criteria we discuss in class. Although the case is from a privately-owned company in the US, it serves as an illustrative example on how we compute NPV, IRR, payback period, and profitability index in practice. This procedure could be applied (with appropriate adjustments) to other investment decision making by other forms of organizations, including households, publicly-traded companies, not-for-profit organizations, or governments, both in the US and elsewhere.

...MASTER OF BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION (MBA) (Revised) 1. The Program: The importance of „management‟ as a professional study can today be compared with that of obtaining a normal graduate degree in order to be called educated. It is just short of becoming a compulsion. Businesses and institutions are growing in complexity and size. They are cutting across space and time by embracing technology, globalization and information. Mere operational efficiency is no more sufficient. Managerial capabilities have become necessary for firms to act on a global platform. Although there are a large number of institutions offering MBA programs, many of them just churn out non employable MBAs. A good institute must incorporate what the industry requires with changing times. The SMU way to Management degree or diploma is to mould the learning towards this objective. With this perspective it has introduced several programs which are geared to meet the industry requirement. These areas are Banking, Information System, Retail Operations and Healthcare. It is planning to offer more programs in the field of environment, disaster management, and media. The master of business administration (MBA) is an integrated program designed to provide an advanced program in management for those seeking managerial positions in industry, commerce and services. The core subjects are aimed at developing knowledge and skills in fundamental management disciplines. The program also involves participation in group work with...

As the world is gradually becoming a global village most countries in the world are making unending quest to attain a higher level of development that is a type of development where most of its people are employed and are earning enough to subsist and perpetuate its generation. SME’s have an important role on many aspects, such as employment, taxes and innovation that most of times is regarded as something on the responsibility of large firms. In “The Theory of Economic Development” Schumpeter (1934) emphasizes the role of entrepreneur, as a prime cause of economic development, which is development achieved through innovation. Taking this into consideration if the entrepreneur has an important role for development, then this role is achieved through the “institution” that he/she represents.
