Assignment #1 – Cumberland Industries
Chapter 14 – Financial Planning & Forecasting Pro Forma Financial Statements

Cumberland Industries’ financial planners must forecast the company’s financial results for the coming year. The forecast for many items will be based on sales, and any additional funds needed will be obtained as notes payable.

a. Assuming the historical trend continues, what will sales be in 2008? Base your forecast on a spreadsheet regression analysis of the 2002-2007 sales data above, and include the summary output of the regression in your answer. By what percentage are sales predicted to increase in 2008 over 2007? Is the sales growth rate increasing or decreasing?

Here are the company’s historical sales. Hint: Use the Trend function to forecast sales for 2008.

Year Sales Growth Rate
2002 129,215,000
2003 180,901,000
2004 235,252,000
2005 294,065,000
2006 396,692,000
2007 455,150,000
2008

=TREND(C17:C22,B17:B22,B23)

% Increase in Predicted Sales for 2008 over 2007:

2007 Sales 455,150,000
2008 Sales

% increase Note: This growth rate has been declining over time.

b. Cumberland’s management believes that the firm will actually experience a 20 percent increase in sales during 2008. Construct 2008 pro forma financial statements. Cumberland will not issue any new stock or long-term bonds. Assume Cumberland will carry forward its current amounts of short-term investments and notes payable, prior to calculating AFN. Assume that any Additional Funds Needed (AFN) will be raised as notes payable (if AFN is negative, Cumberland will purchase additional short-term investments). Use an interest rate of 9 percent for short-term debt (and for the interest income on short-term investments) and a rate of 11 percent for long-term debt. No interest is earned on cash. Use the beginning of year debt balances to calculate net interest expense. Assume that dividends grow at an 8 percent rate.

c. Now create a graph depicting the sensitivity of AFN for the coming year to the sales growth rate. To make this graph, compare the AFN at sales growth rates of 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, 25%, and 30%.

We can use a data table to answer this question:
Sales 2008 AFN
Growth rate $0

d. Calculate the Net Operating Working Capital (NOWC), Total Operating Capital, and NOPAT for 2007 and 2008. Also, calculate the FCF for 2008.

e. Suppose Cumberland can reduce its inventory to sales ratio to 5 percent and its cost to sales ratio to 83 percent. What happens to AFN and FCF?

Topic: Creating and Naming Colors -Color Theory
Paper instructions:
The “fathers” of colors really didn’t have much to go on as they named and created different colors. Your assignment will afford you the same opportunity. Create 10 custom colors swatches using the design program of your choice. Not only will you create the colors, you also are responsible for naming them as well. For example, if you created a color swatch that is 90% magenta and 100% yellow, you might call this color “Ring of Fire.” To complete your assignment, follow the steps below:

1. With adobe Photoshop or illustrator.

2. Create 10 of your own custom color swatches.

3. Assign specific and nature-related names to each (keeping with the trends set forth by the “fathers” of color).

4. Copy and paste your colors into a Word document.

5. Place the name of each color directly after the swatch.

6. Submit all 10 swatches in a single document to the drop box.

Save your assignment as a Microsoft Word document. (Mac users, please remember to append the “.docx” extension to the filename.)

 

 

Topic: Adam Smith and Rousseau
Paper instructions:
one inch margins, 12 pt font, Times New Roman

Must cite in the text and when making citations cite the actual page and line number in the text.

Both Smith and Rousseau are concerned with economic domination, but their accounts of how it arises, and how to solve it, seem importantly different. Compare their accounts of domination, and argue for the superiority of one position.

MUST USE PRIMARY SOURCES ONLY AND USE TEXTUAL EVIDENCE!!!

REFER TO THESE TEXTS:

Rousseau: Discourse on Inequality

Rousseau: Social Contract Parts 1-2, Gracchus Babeuf /Sylvan Marechal: Manifesto of the Equals

Adam Smith: Theory of Moral Sentiments

Adam Smith: Wealth of Nations

Interpret the text yourself.

No personal preferences.

1) Does the paper take a position on the topic and provide an informed and thoughtful defense of that position? Are counterarguments addressed?

2) Does the paper provide an accurate interpretation of the relevant texts and demonstrate understanding of the ideas and arguments found therein?

3) Does the paper make effective use of textual references and provide analysis of the textual references employed?

4) Does the paper answer the question? Does it clearly articulate its reasoning? Is the writing graceful and free of error?

You’re expected to make an argument

This means a clear thesis statement in your introduction, a preview of what you will argue and the line of your argument (e.g. “I will argue that Aristotle’s claim that ‘man is a political animal’ is convincing for reasons x, y and z but that it fails to account for a and b. NOTE: “I will explore this text /question and hope to reach some conclusions” or such like is not a thesis).

Topic: SAP Predictive Analysis
Paper instructions:
In this week’s guide page, I discussed engines and interfaces as categories of data mining software. Some of the engines we have studied this term include querying engines, row and column manipulation engines, visualization engines and statistical analysis engines. Our interfaces for querying were SQL and the SAP Business Objects Analysis. For row and column, we had EXCEL, SQL and SAP Business Objects Analysis. For visualization, we had EXCEL, SAP Business Objects Analysis and R. For statistical analysis, we had EXCEL and R.

The take away message for this assignment is that many software packages provide the same functionality, and often your task in learning a new package is to figure out how the package does the familiar functions, rather than studying something brand new. This week’s assignment examines SAP Predictive Analysis as an interface, and asks you to match its visualization functionality with the engines and interfaces we have studied already. The purpose is to get used to thinking of data mining software in terms of concepts rather than details. If you understand concepts, you will be able to deal with new situations much more effectively than if you only memorize details.

1) To what engines does SAP Predictibe Analysis provde an interface? Explain.

2) Review the How to acquire data and do simple visualizations video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nd4bnDguf1I. At time 1 minute and 5 seconds, the presenter moves the Category column to the Legend Color box of the chart feeder. Describe the structure of an EXCEL pivot chart that would produce the same color-coded bar chart. This type of coloring is also called color brushing, and it is one of the most effective techniques for exploratory visualizations.

3) Review the NCAA Final Four prediction video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZZg2HsvfEaA At time 1 minute and 8 seconds, the presenter shows SAP Predictive Analysis interface for merging two files. What previous interface that we studied could be used for merging? Briefly explain the details of how you would do a merge using the previous interface.

4) At time 3 minutes and 28 seconds of the NCAA video, the presenter selects a set of bubbles and filters out all the bubbles outside the box. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZZg2HsvfEaA How would you do the same kind of filtering in an EXCEL pivot chart. Hint: the solution is extremely tedious and not nearly as easy as the SAP method.

5) How would you create a trellis chart in EXCEL?
