Accounting plays an important role in helping you assess the health, or financial strength, of your business. Financial reports serve both internal and external users and focus on the financial activities of both individual departments and the company as a whole. They are used to make departmental decisions, monitor projects, set performance goals, and plan future activities.

Following what you’ve written so far, answer the following question as it relates to your personal business venture:

How does an income statement help you keep track of the health of your business? And what about the balance sheet?

What strategies might you employ to reduce expenditures?

Do you see any obvious ways to increase profits?

Use what you have learned on cost analysis to answer these questions in narrative form. Again, your response to the above questions should be between a total of 400-600 words. You will be graded on accuracy of content/concepts used, feasibility, and finally the organization and presentation of the writing. Please refer to the rubric posted on Canvas for more detail on grading.

3-List and explain the methods that shareholders have at their disposal for aligning managers’ goals with their goals.

4-Stockholders can transfer wealth from bondholders through a variety of actions. Explain how the following actions by shareholders transfer wealth from bondholders:
a. An increase in dividends.
b. A leveraged buyout
c. Acquiring a risky business.

Explain how bondholdeers would protect themselves against these actions.

5-Explain why the income statement is not a good representation of cash flow.

6-Note that in all of our cash flow computations to determine cash flow of the firm, we never include the addition to retained earnings. Why not? Is this an oversight?

7-Interpret, in words, what cash flow of the firm represents by discussing operating cash flow, changes in net working capital, and additions to fixed assets.

8-Why is cash flow management important?

Chapter 22 presented a case study in creating value from uncertainty, and chapter 25 presented the use of efficient frontier analysis in SRM. Assume you are the project lead for the analysis team that uses Efficient Frontier Analysis to evaluate risks of the portfolio presented in chapter 25. How would you explain the results of the analysis to non-technical decision makers? What recommendation would you make, assuming the risk appetite presented in chapter 25?

To complete this assignment, you must do the following:

A) Create a new thread. As indicated above, assume you are the project lead for the analysis team that uses Efficient Frontier Analysis to evaluate risks of the portfolio presented in chapter 25. How would you explain the results of the analysis to non-technical decision makers? What recommendation would you make, assuming the risk appetite presented in chapter 25?

NOTE: These discussions should be informal discussions, NOT research papers. If you MUST directly quote a resource, then cite it properly. However, I would much rather simply read your words.

I just need the rough draft of this assignment revised and ensure that it meets all requirements.
