Everyone jokes around per usual, though there is a dense fog of stress hanging in the air. Tomorrow is the biggest cross country race of the season. If the team does good then they get to stay running for another week and go to regionals, but if they have a bad race their season will end right there without states. As Sarah returns home from practice with her older brother Adam, she remembers her last race. She remembers how little water she drank and how much it affected...

...Comm 401 – Individual Assignment The focus of this exercise is to undertake a broad level assessment of the strategic fit of Mercury Athletic Footwear into the Active Gear Inc. portfolio. In addition, a preliminary valuation assessment needs to be made as to the value of this potential acquisition. In regards to this: 1. Is Mercury Athletic Footwear an appropriate target and strategic fit for AGI? Why or why not? 2. Are John Liedtke’s projections appropriate and acceptable for decision-making purposes? Do you have any concerns with the assumptions made or computations offered for analysis? If so, what are they? 3. What preliminary valuation estimate (can be stated as a range) would you place on the value of Mercury Athletic Footwear? Do you consider your estimate to be conservative or aggressive? 4. Where do you feel AGI can leverage synergies should they decide to acquire Mercury? Which of these, if any, would you expect AGI to position its acquisition rationale around in making its pitch for financing support? Can you illustrate a valuation of potential cost savings or revenue generation opportunities resulting from your synergy assessment? 5. Identify what you feel are the top five (5) decision criteria which would guide your thought process as to whether Mercury Athletic Footwear should be acquired. 6. Based on your analysis, do you recommend that Athletic Gear Inc. move forward with this acquisition? Be sure to validate this response with a short descriptor of reasons why...

...Using the discounted cash flow model approach and Liedtke’s base case projections, the value of Mercury was estimated to be approximately $421,437,699. The free cash flows for Mercury Athletic Footwear from 2007 to 2011 were calculated from Liedtke’s projections of Mercury’s performance and balance sheet (Exhibit 6 and 7). From Liedtke’s projected performance of Mercury Athletic Footwear, earnings before interests and taxes (EBIT) was evaluated from the consolidated revenue and operating expenses. Corporate overhead Corporate overhead (assuming they are all fixed overhead) was not included in the calculation of EBIT since overhead costs are fixed and will be incurred in any case. They are not incremental to the project and should not be included in the calculation of incremental earnings (Berk & DeMarzo 2007). Net working capital From Liedtke’s projections of the balance sheet for Mercury Athletic Footwear, net working capital was computed from the difference between current assets and current liabilities, which allowed the increase in net working capital to be calculated. From the historical financial statements of Mercury Athletic Footwear, the increase in net working capital for 2007 was determined by calculating the difference between the net working capital in 2007 and 2006. Free cash flows The free cash flows (FCF=EBIT×(1-τ_c )+Depreciation-CapEx-∆NWC) from 2007 to 2011 was then determined from the figures calculated from the base case projections (Berk & DeMarzo...

... The last step is to make sure you pack up essentials. It sounds like a lot and hard work but in the end it is all worth it. Doing research about the country you will live in is very important because you will be informed about the cultures and customs of the country. Also researching what cities are safe to live in and what cities are dangerous is good way of keeping yourself safe and out of trouble. Make sure to research living situations is it mostly apartment/condo living or is it houses? Knowing that information is good for when you are packing because you will know how much space you will have. A good way of research is finding a group on a social media website and asking them questions about the country and living situations. This step will be the most important step out of all three. Having the right paperwork and documentation is very important or you can get in serious trouble and or road blocks along the way. Making sure you know what you need is important. For example if you do not already have a passport make sure you apply for one right away because it can take a while to receive it. Next if you plan on working you must apply for a work visa in order to be able to get a job and work legally. Make sure to know if the country you are going to needs an entry visa beforehand or no. for example when going to South Korea you get a 90 entry visa which means you can only be in the country for 90 days and then have to leave and...

...20 September 2011 Topic Proposal The topic that I am using from the Affluenza book is Stuff Wars at the Airport on page 35. The angle that I am approaching this topic is from an airport employee stance. I worked at an international airport in several different capacities and think it provides a unique perspective. My guiding questions will be the basic such as: * What is the topic? * Why has this topic been chosen? * What is the focus of the topic? * How is the perspective and understanding conveyed to the reader? The concerns for this topic are the type of information that can be found other than personal experiences but believe that resources can be found in several areas on the internet, online databases, and library. Deciding on how specific is another concern, but believe that staying within the confines of the stuff wars specifically at the airport will keep the topic within the boundaries of the project. It is difficult to determine the time frame it will take to research the topic. It will take approximately two weeks to come up with an appropriate thesis and outline for the project. It could take two weeks to focus the topic on specific questions to ask but as soon as that is complete, it is easy to make a list of factual and interpretive questions for the reader to understand the research. After all has been completed, the research has a good foundation and is ready to start. To complete the essay will take one week to compile, rewrite, and finish...

...an example of how it would be done I have added a diagram showing how you would process the cost of the goods sold. First you need to have the cost of the beginning inventory then you have to add the amount of the purchases and subtract the ending amount of the inventory. When everything is said and done it equals out to the cost of the goods that have been sold. Cost of goods sold is the accumulated total of all the costs used to create a product or service in this case it is which has been sold. All of these costs fall into a general sub category of direct labor as well as the materials, and overhead stock. The cost of goods sold is considered to be a part of the labor and payroll taxes. Beginning Inventory |+ |Purchases |- |Ending Inventory |= |Cost of Goods Sold | |$600 |+ |$1500 |- |$400 |= |$1700 | |$800 |+ |$2400 |- |$600 |= |$2600 | |There is also a first in and first out method that helps with keeping track of the inventory. So when things come in the stuff that is older should move forward and the new stuff should go in back. I believe that when it comes down to it the way we handle the sales of the products then the company should not have a problem with keeping track of the funds coming in and going out. Below I have added the example of how it should work. I have done two different...

...It was also important to remember to ask open-ended questions. In school, we also discussed accepting that we are not an expert in what we are doing and that everyone makes mistakes. Thinking about it, I have realized that I have a habit of not remembering everything that I should when I am trying to explain something. This is especially true if I am not fully comfortable with what I am doing. The more comfortable I am with the information or with what I am doing the easier it is for me to complete the task that I am supposed. However, I do realize that it may take a while to be fully comfortable with some of the tasks, and that I should continue to get experience in that type of situation. I should look over the intake information more so that I become more comfortable with it. I know that people learn when they are actually doing things rather than just talking about them, but I feel as if I would have been more comfortable if I had observed at least one or two other intakes prior to starting them by myself, since I had only sat in on about three total during...

...against the group happened when I was in college. I worked at clothing store at the local mall. One of the requirements for working there was that you had to wear the clothes that were sold there or clothes similar to them. After working there for a month or so I stumbled upon a few of the girls taking clothes off the shelf and putting them in the back room. I was then told that sometimes the girls there would “borrow the clothes and wear them to work in that day and then put them back on the shelf for customers to buy. I did speak up and tell them I thought it was wrong. They then informed me that even the manager of the store did it. That she would even get merchandise and take it home and keep the tags there and pay for some of the stuff a little bit along. I was in shock. I proceeded by calling the home office and calling the district manager and reporting the issue. A few weeks later the district manager came in the store. I was then fired. All the girls told the district manager that I was causing arguments within the group and I was a trouble maker. I did find out later that the home office did their own investigation in the store and all of the girls even the manager ended up getting fired. Even though I was fired from the job, I felt good about doing the right thing. I could have easily conform to the group for the sake of my job but due to my ethical beliefs I could not do...

...“The Story of Stuff” is a short video created by The Story of Stuff project in 2007. In the video, writers Annie Leonard and Jonah Sachs describe the process of turning natural resources into consumer goods, then into waste. The writers describe a seemingly linear five-step process: extraction, production, distribution, consumption, and disposal. Leonard and Sachs describe a carefully-scripted culture of unsustainable consumption and waste. The extraction phase of “The Story of Stuff” refers to the removal of natural resources such as timber, natural gas, coal, oil, and water. The writers emphasize the unsustainability of this phase, especially in the United States. The video states that the United States holds 5% of the world’s population but uses 30% of the world’s natural resources and creates over 30% of the world’s waste. This is a staggering statistic. Four percent of the United States’ forests remain. FOUR PERCENT. How much longer will it be before trees are things read about in storybooks (digitally printed of course, as there are no more natural resources to harvest.) The production phase is described as the addition of toxic chemicals to natural resources in order to produce the “stuff” we want. Please note the use of the word “want,” not “need.” The authors note that over 100,000 synthetic chemicals are commercially available today and are regularly used in production. Of those 100,000 synthetic chemicals, very few have been tested in a significant way to measure...
