Ask any general questions about this process by replying to the demonstration thread & response that I post within this topic.Do not include my text as a part of any response that you provide. It is very cumbersome to read all that text just to ask a question of clarification.Part 3 will be open in Week #7. On Monday, December 8th, I will move this entire topic to Week #8. Once part 4's due date/time is reached, this topic will close so that I may grade both parts.Grades for parts 3 & 4 will be posted using the same method I used for Part 2. However, I will attach in the student assignment folder my written feedback in link called "student workbook."Be sure that you read all of the following instructions before you begin any of your work.Part 3 (points = 5) (due Dec. 8th) is the Corporate America reporting event. Each student must present three slides of exact information that they have discovered about their chosen company. See my demonstration for exact details.Required Action: prepare & attach in one document, three slides (in landscape format), either in PowerPoint or as an Adobe Acrobat PDF file. "Start a New Thread" and attach the completed presentation. The subject line & the file document must be the name of your company (abbreviated company name is acceptable) followed by your name.Use only black & blue text font and a white background for the slides. Do not present any graphics of clip art of any type. Be sure that your presentation is a professionally prepared document. It must be able to be printed and readable as presentation slides. Small print, wide margins are therefore discouraged. Absolutely be brief with any written notes provided. Remember, you are part of a two-person team and teamwork is critical in any company. Present the following information (note, present only the required information, resist going off on a tangent): (Note: use my presentation example as a guide to how your slides should be formatted and look.)        Header (required on slide 1 only): "Corporation Name followed by Your Name"        Slides 1: Present, horizontally, the following ratios for the most current four years:              >> Current Ratio                       >> Quick Ratio                >> Current Cash to Debt Coverage                       >> Accounts Receivable Turnover               >> Inventory Turnover                       >> Asset Turnover                     >> Profit Margin on Sales                  >> Return on Assets                  >> Debt to Asset Ratio               >> Free Cash Flow               Slides 2: Identify and provide a brief written review of one (and only one) significant financial event that is reflected in a significant change or trend exhibited by four year ratio trend presented in slide 1. Include any consolidated or brief footnote evidence/information that discusses/explains this significant event. Note: Bebrief, you may use bullet format in your presentation. Ensure that all information is properly documented using in text citations. Caution, you are to provide your own analysis. Therefore, do not consult any online analysis, that may have been written, about this financial event. This team, not the Wall Street Journal or outside online analytical gang is responsible for making their own observation to the senior partner.        Slide 3: The bibliographic information must be on the last of the three slides. Grading of part 3:          Timeliness and accuracy of information presented & the presentation, to include direct page references four points. Remember that presentation format is important. You are a member of a team, keep your presentation simple and clear. Do not clutter the information and keep the pages without graphics or color selections. The final product (combination of all slides provided by the team) is the responsibility of the manager’s staff assistant. Grade reductionwill be based on the level of inaccurate material or direct page references as well as the presentation.          Source consulted (bibliography) with direct url link, one point. Remember the source url must be a direct link to the SEC 10K annual report. The reviewer must not have to dig down into a company website to find the needed document.          Because this assignment involves other classmates reviewing presentations late presentations will not be accepted. In the real world of business, coworkers and employers do not accept tardy information in the boardrooms. Therefore, plan ahead, and be on time.Part 4 (point = 1) (due Dec. 11th) is the review process. Each student must review one other classmate’s (and only one classmate’s) presentation for accuracy. This review is the collaborative portion of the event. Again, see my demonstration for exact details.Keep in mind; you are reviewing another classmate’s presentation. Be sure to conform to common courtesy. If there are errors, then state so, and document them accordingly. When there are no errors then present any notes and complement accordingly. Be sure to review again content Course Admin Notes & Policies - Module >> Course Ground Rules.The subject line of the reviewer's response must read, "Company Name reviewed by Your Name."The following are the items that are to be addressed by the reviewer:        Correct page reference(s)        Direct link via the url provided by the presenter        Provide the calculations for "selected" ratios that were presented (Selected means that you should locate the ratios that are addressed by the presenter as having had a significant financial event. Then present your calculations to verify that these ratios were in fact correctly calculated.) Do not, under any circumstance present the calculations for all ratios presented. At most, I would expect to see only four ratio calculations out of the 40 values presented.        Remember that as the reviewer, you are using source material and must also document your source consulted.Grading of part 4:          Timeliness and accuracy of the reviewed material and source information presented, to include direct page references one half point.          Source consulted with direct url link, one half point. Remember the source url must be a direct link to the SEC 10K annual report.          Because this assignment involves other students reviewing presentations, late presentations will not be accepted. In the real world of business, coworkers and employers do not accept tardy information in the boardroom. Therefore, plan ahead and be on time.General Instruction Notes:          To be fair to all who present on time: in order to review or reserve another classmate's presentation for review, each student must first have presented their own part 3. Yes, you may reserve a classmate's presentation for review by posting a reply stating your intent to review. However, keep in mind, all reviews & reservations are on an absolute first come first serve basis. Only those who have presented a part 3 may review or reserve for review another's part 3 presentation.          Do not comment on any other student's presentation unless you are in fact going to be the reviewer.  Note: For part 3, students must "Start a New Thread" to provide their company's information. The subject line of that new thread must contain, "Company Name - by Student Name." Where it says company name that is the name of the company that the student is selecting. Where it says student name that is the student's name who is posting the new thread.Note: All information presented must be discovered or calculated from the audited financial statements. Note: Round all calculations to one decimal place. Note: All information presented that was found in the financial reports must be documented.        Use APA style and in addition, page number(s) must be presented for each in text citation.o       Except for directly quoted material, page numbers are not mandatory in APA style but I am making them mandatory for credit in this presentation.        Present source document as a bibliography complete with the exact url that will directly lead the reader to the exact SEC 10K annual report.o       Additionally, you must provide a date accessed.o       Again APA does not mandate this for fixed website, I am making it mandatory for credit.When posted see my example demonstration thread.Class,          My presentation here will consist of two parts; your review requirement will be only one part. Everything that you read in bold blue font (except the urls) are my instructions and explanations related to this review process. All items presented in bold black font relate to my demonstration of the required review.          This is a collaborated assignment, one classmate presented a company and another reviewed it. This will be again on a first come first serve basis. The first student to review a presentation will get credit for the review. Therefore, only one student may review any one main topic presentation. Students may “lock” onto a classmate’s main topic presentation by “responding” to that main topic and filling in the subject line. Then they may return at a later time to present their completed review before the due date/time. To be fair, only classmates who have posted their part 3 Corporate America presentation may lock onto another classmate’s main topic as the reviewer. This will be the reservation process to ensure that the presentation and review process is fair for all who participate.          Thank you for your cooperation and my review of my own Boston Beer company presentation will follow, Michael J. Boston Beer Company reviewed by Michael J. Motes, CPAPages cited in notations were correct for the information presented.The source urls used in the bibliography were accurate and efficiently directed the used to the correct SEC 10K reports.Calculations regarding the ratios presented for Return on Assets:          2012: $59,467 / (($359,484 + $272,488)/2) = 18.8% (2013, p34 & 35)          2011: $66,059 / (($272,488 + $258,530)/2) = 24.9% (2011, p36 & 37)          2010: $50,142 / (($258,530 + $262,936)/2) = 19.2% (2011, p36 & 37)        A review of the annual report cited material reflects that there was a 2008 - 4th quarter recalled bottled beer indeed for glass shards.
