Model Reports Samples For Students

With every business or organization, there is a business model. Each individual industry tends to have a standard model in which organizations conduct their business. However, this is not always the case. Take for example the PGA Tour. Rather than follow the patterns of most other sports organizations and teams, this company has created its own model in order to make the best use of its resources. By making the best use of its limited resources, supporting charities and players, and creating a strong business culture, the PGA Tour creates an experience which retains its fans, players, and partnering companies.

TMA 01 Part 1: Summarizing and interpreting a table

The information in the table can be used to explain aggressive behavior. The results show that children who were exposed to an aggressive model behaved more aggressively than compared to the children in the control condition. This shows that exposure to an aggressive model increases the amount of aggressive behavior that is shown by children. It did not matter whether the model was in a film or live. It also did not matter whether the model was a fantasy creature or human (Oates, J. 2005, 123). This can be seen from the table as the average imitative aggression was higher in ...

Instrument Implementation

The main objective of this project is to conduct creative knowledge management research which is related to RFID patients.
Background
The KM model represents the process that effectively defines the strategy for management to divest, build and enhance knowledge assets. The strength of this particular model lies on its strategic focus that essentially puts knowledge management into action (Jennex, 2007, p.114). In regard to the application of the KM model into the technology behind RFID, it becomes apparent that this form of technology has been around since the early1920’s.

This is achieved through effective sharing and development of information available from sources, such as employees, clients, suppliers and the internet.
Many firms have integrated this discipline ...

Valuation Method: FCFF Model

In this section, we will now compute the intrinsic valuation of Air Canada using Discounted Cash Flow Valuation using FCFF method. Referring to the annual report of the company for the latest years, 2011, 2012 and 2013, we found that the company had never paid dividend, hence, it was clear that we cannot go ahead with dividend payments to value the firm. Moreover, FCFF valuation is suitable for firm-wide valuation which is the very essence of our report. Here are some of the rations as why we selected FCFF for valuation of the firm:

Regression Results

Discussing Stock Risk
Here, we have used Beta as a measure of stock risk arising from general market movements. The above results indicate that on the basis of 2 year monthly returns, the beta of Coca-Cola is 0.92. This indicates the stock returns are marginally less volatile than the market/less than perfectly correlated to the market return as the beta multiple is less than 1.
In addition, we also witness the R-Square multiple of 0.31. This indicates that of the total risk embedded in the Coca-Cola Stock, 31% is the market risk while the remaining risk is diversifiable ...

Holistic models of education are based on the psychology of functionalism, a theory that explains human behavior is determined by perceived usefulness to the organism in adapting to the environment. Holistic education methods are more “progressive” and focus on the learners links to community and nature. (Knowles, Holton III & Swanson, 2011) The goal of the ...

Introduction to Modeling of Engineering Systems

The model that my group has developed is based upon the separation and accumulation of solids which flow into a settling tank from a feed steam. During this separation procedure, the solid accumulates into the settling tank and the cleaner liquid product accumulates in a storage tank. The feed stream, containing solid particles in liquid, flows continuously to the settling tank, and solids are thus able to settle to the bottom as the liquid moves upward through the tank. A product stream leaves the tank; this stream contains a smaller fraction of solids than the field stream. Eventually the amount of solids which ...

Lab #9: Dimensional Analysis and Similitude

Introduction
Dimensional analysis is one of the powerful tools in the determination of relationships between physical parameters. This technique involves manipulation and comparison of the units of physical features so as to achieve the desired relationship, whose units conform to the expectation of a quantity being derived. On the other hand, similitude refers to the a technique where a real life structure or component is reproduced by at a lower scale such that every dimension is drawn to the scale and at a constant proportion among all members of a structure. This technique assumes that a model behaves in a similar manner as a prototype and the ...

Introduction to Modeling of Engineering Systems

A semi-batch mode operates the solids separation process by accumulating and settling solids in a storage tank. The cleaner product accumulates in the storage tank whereas the feed stream with solids flows into the settling tank. The clean liquid flows upward into the tank leaving the solid particles at the bottom. The product stream from the tank has smaller solids than those in the feed stream. The amount of solids keeps increasing in the settling tank as solids increase in the settling time. The exit stream accumulates in the collection vessel. The solids in the settling tank should be removed ...

Introduction

Contemporary business environment places a lot of pressure on the costs, which the companies encounter to deliver the product or service to their final customer. The reality shows that in the majority of cases the major cost is attributed to the Supply Chain Management (SCM) operations, such as procurement, manufacturing and distribution. The impact of these costs on the profitability of the product is paramount, and the issue is especially sensitive when it comes to low margin products. With that in mind, management of operations and continuous improvement mentality is critical for the success of the companies (Peng 2014). This ...

Free cash flow calculation for Google can be done in three different ways. This will be a cash flow which will be available for all the investors of Google, its shareholders and also bondholders. It will be obtained after Google makes all its investments that are required to sustain the demands of its products. The second formula that will be applied for this case is the WACC. It will be calculated asWACC=SS+BrS+BS+BrB1-TC
Therefore, the WACC = $ 1255/ ($ 1255 + $ 1380) * 0.12 + $ 1380/ ($ 1255 + $ 1380) * 0.15 (1 – 0.35) = 0.055

Paper 1

First order differential equations have been very useful in analyzing important properties of a system, such as stability. Literature has seen many works which have explained very specific examples of systems whose dynamics are described by a set of linear first order differential equations. However, there is little evidence, or rather no holistic explanation to prove the usefulness of simple non-linear differential equations in achieving the same. The aim of the paper studied is to bring to light this usefulness, introduce some practical applications of the same, and to examine the behavioral spectrum of such systems. Further, the paper also addresses ...

Relevance model of criminal justice in Warren Court

The relevant model was applied in the Warren court to formulate their decision concerning the criminal cases was the crime control model. The police and authority presumed the individuals to be guilty and treated them as guilty rather than suspects. The model assumes when a person has been arrested on crime charges, they must be considered guilty and should face punishment for their crimes (Scheingold, 1997). The court therefore applied this model to rule the cases on individualism basis not communism.
The court argued that the individual rights were not protected during the police procedure. The perpetrators were tortured ...

Measuring Campaign Effectiveness

The importance of proper coordination between the sales and marketing functions of any organization is a matter whose importance cannot be overemphasized. Although both functions are geared towards maximizing sales and profits, improper coordination often leads to wastage of resources as the sales agents chase leads of low quality, delay the follow-up of leads or dedicate insufficient selling effort towards high potential leads generated by the marketing team. The selling units, on the other hand, more often accuse the marketing team of generating low-quality leads. This situation necessitates the need for an Integrated Marketing Communications Framework (Clow & Baak 2004). ...
