...Week 6 – Finance Project SheaRee Terry Professor James Huskins MAT104 November 11, 2011 How much more money would I need to add to my current mortgage payment in order to pay off my home loan of $112,247.47 in 20 years instead of 25 years? While figuring this out, I need to consider all of my options and whether or not this would be worth it due to the fact that I’m already stretched extremely thin after covering all of my monthly expenses. It would make sense to first understand what my opinions are. I have to first think about the financial position I am already in. After paying all of my bills for the month, I don’t even have $100 left over to live off of for the rest of the month. This alone, causes me to think that increasing my payment amount doesn’t make sense in my current situation, but may be something I want to revisit in a few years when I have more income to spare. I can look into refinancing to see if I can possibly get a lower interest rate, but that would cost me $2000 I don’t have at the moment. At the same time, it wouldn’t hurt to figure out what interest rate would benefit me by lowering my payment and, if it’s worth it, I could come up with the closing costs. I’ve decided I will weigh my options. I will calculate how much more I will need to increase my current payment by in order to pay off this loan in 20 years without refinancing. Alternatively, my credit is in good shape so I should also be able to refinance at a lower interest rate. I will...

...As a payroll coordinator the last two years I have learned more about what finance entails. I never really thought I wold like any business field or even pursue any MBA. The more I learned about payroll and accounting the more I seem to enjoy it. Often times I am at work after hours trying to figure out financial statements or trying to get over 2,000 checks processed for a deadline. A career in Finance would also allow me to pursue my passion in expanding my family’s business in real estate. Having a background in Finance would provide me a better understanding of how the financial markets work as well as making sound investments. Although I have never taken a business course in school I have always been surrounded in a business environment from a young age. Since the age of 15 I was helping my family with their real estate business; from meeting and greeting with tenants to writing up a lease. I always had a passion for the real estate business. I was intrigued how my grandparents would buy houses and then renovate them to look so beautiful and new. In high school I volunteered over a thousand hours in the finance department at St. Elizabeth’s Hospital. It was a gratifying experience being able to work in the payroll and accounting department. I had wonderful mentors who taught me a lot and showed me what hard work it takes to run a hospital's financials. Currently working for the payroll department for the last two years I feel as though I have learned so much that I am ready...

...future three years before I enter labor force (since I plan to go to graduate school), the biggest thing I want to work on is to find what I really want to do in the future as my career. I am currently a sophomore majoring in Accounting and to be honest, I am not pretty sure about what I want to do for living As long as I am considering right now, there are three possibilities for me as for my career—work in an investment bank as an analyst, work as an author in china. As for being a author, the very first reason is that I love to express my opinions through languages. Indeed I started thinking about being an author when I was in my first year of undergraduate. I was mostly motivated by the book, The Seventh Day, written by Chinese famous journalist Hua Yu. In that book, He expresses his opinions about political, social and economical events though relating fictions life after the death of the main charter. Therefore, I was motivated by his several sentences, hoping to become an author so as to perform my own values in Chinese writing filed. The major difficulty so far that get in the way for me to be a an author here is still the language barrier. The reason is that I did not get the formal training for this. For now, I accept American education, and totally stop accepting any Chinese stuff. In addition, I spend lots of time working on do my Finance and Accounting class, so I don’t have more time to consider my interests or my life goal. Although I had been taking several writing...

...talks about the various elements and basics of finance in a much different light as compared to how a common, every day finance specialist would normally explain it. He breaks it down into a level wherein even young kids could understand, making it relatable to people of all ages. Having such a complex topic being discussed in the most simple way possible makes it that much more intriguing to read through, especially that it touches on different techniques on how one could better manage and make their own money. He starts off with a simple story and continues on with many more of them. However, what makes it so difficult to put down this book is that these stories serve as simple analogies of what had before seemed like a complex idea in the finance world. Not only do these stories make it more entertaining and easier to understand the basics of finance, but they are also very informative, practical and relatable. In addition to these series of funny and simple tales is the discussion of a heavy but gentle load of information that all build up to the revealing of the magic formula. This formula, as explained by Greenblatt, is one that has been repeatedly proven to beat the market thus, helping a number of people become better investors. There were many insights I was able to gain from reading this book. These insights were not only tips and lessons on how to perform better in the market, but more importantly, they have also taught me a thing or two about life in general. One...

...Importance of Finance Masters in Business Administration The Importance of Finance The field of finance is broad and dynamic. It directly affects the lives of every person and every organization (Gitman, 2009). In recent years, the changing economic and regulatory environments have increased the importance and complexity of finance. Understanding business valuation is critical in business. Analyzing a business’s own value is as important as knowing about the business value of competitors. Business valuation requires both business mind and financial knowledge (Way, 2015). Economic development makes new requirements to enterprise financial management system improvement and development of proposals. The concepts of how you measure value and planning where you want to be in the future are very important.

...Influenced by my mother, who works in a bank, I have been interested in finance since I was a child. Even though I was unable to take Finance as a major in my undergraduate studies because I missed the standard for that topic by a single point in my college entrance examination, I still kept my enthusiasm for Finance and gradually developed a keen interest in the topic of Carbon Finance and Carbon Trading. As part of my research into Carbon Finance, I was very interested to discover that it is partly based on ideas about accounting for social costs developed by Ronald Coase more than fifty years ago. In Chinese financial institutions there is a shortage of professional consultants who can analyze and evaluate local companies in the potential area of carbon trading. I hope to become a professional consultant in Carbon Finance industry when I graduate. In this way, not only can I maximize profit for companies, but also to make use of my skills in analysis to protect the environment. Starting with my love of finance, I have paid more attention to learning Financial Management. In a recent team project it was a big challenge for our team to analyze a company’s operational performance based only on pages of financial statements, especially as everything was in English. In order to perfect our report, we looked over textbooks to study different financial statements, searched until midnight for suitable theories in the library and applied those theories to our case. When we finished...
