Paper Requirements: Papers must be turned in before the last day of class. You can submit them through the link in Assignments. Below is a paper outline you should use as a guideline. Papers must be 12 pt. Times, double spaced format. Papers should be at least 2-3 pages long. The paper is a review/critique of a play you saw, so look at examples of reviews and critiques to use as a guideline. Look at the questions on Page 41 of your textbook to help you with this paper…answer those questions in your paper, in addition to discussing the design elements as well. Aspects of the performance you should be commenting on are the text, story, particular actor performances, costumes, lighting, set design, music…anything else you want. Give your opinion, possibly what you would do different if you didn’t like it and whether or not you recommend this show for people to see. Do not just write, “I liked it” or “The acting was good”. Break it down…what was good about it? Why did you like it? Be specific and mention what the costumes looked like and why you think the designer made those choices and same thing with the other designers and their designs. When writing about the actors, use their real names from the program to talk about the choices they made in creating their characters. Italicize the title of the play in your paper and make sure to mention where you saw this play or what company produced this particular production of it. Write your paper in this provided space here because uploading your paper as a document here or a link doesn’t work well on this system. Paper Outline: I. Introduction -Includes opening paragraph introducing play and production you will be discussing. -Includes your point of view and opinion. -Brief synopsis of plot/story, like 2-3 sentences. II. Supporting Paragraph #1 (Design Elements): Focus on 2 or 3 design elements, like costumes, props, sound, set, lights and how they support or don’t support the play or the director’s vision. Describe the elements and discuss perhaps why they were the way they were and if it worked for you. Elaborate on what you saw and analyze its effect on the show. III. Supporting Paragraph #2 (Acting): Focus on 2 or 3 actors and discuss their performance. Describe what worked or what didn’t work for you and the choices these actors made in creating their characters. Use the actor’s names when discussing their performance because it is their acting choices you are critiquing, not the character’s. IV. Supporting Paragraph #3 (Direction/ Playwriting): Focus on what you think the director’s vision was and whether it works or not. Or elements of the story/writing. Lots of room here. V. Conclusion: Wrap it up.

Visit a popular department store, such as Walmart, Target, Kohls, and so on, and visit the children’s toy and clothing sections. You can do this in a store or online. Are these sections divided by “boys” and “girls”? If so, what differences do you notice between the girls and boys sections? Are the same toys and clothing items in each section or are they different? What types of graphics and words are on the boys’ clothing versus the girls’ clothing? What messages are being sent to children? How is this playing a role in gender socialization of children? This is for a psychology of women and gender class.

You work for a private investment company that currently has numerous business investments in real estate development, restaurant franchises, and retail chains. Following an exhaustive search for new investment opportunities, you have found three possible alternatives, each of which will pay off in exactly 10 years from the date of initial investment. Because you only have enough money to invest in one of the three options, you recognize that you will need to complete a quantitative comparison of the three alternatives:

Option A: Real estate development.

Option B: Investment in the retail franchise “Just Hats,” a boutique that sells hats for men and women.

Option C: Investment in “Cupcakes and so forth,” a franchise that sells a wide variety of cupcakes and a variety other desserts.

Download the raw data for the three investments in this Excel document: Raw data for BUS520 SLP 1.

Assignment

Develop an analysis of these three investments in Excel. Use expected value to determine which of the three alternatives you should choose.

Write a report to your private investment company, explaining your Excel analysis, giving your recommendation, and justifying your decision.

SLP Assignment Expectations

Excel Analysis

Using Excel, make an accurate and complete analysis of the three investment alternatives. Let Excel do the work for you. Instead of typing the formula in a separate line, just enter it in the cell.

Written Report
•Length requirements: 2–3 pages minimum (not including Cover and Reference pages). NOTE: You must submit 2–3 pages of written discussion and analysis. This means that you should avoid use of tables and charts as “space fillers.”
•Provide a brief introduction to/background of the problem.
•Discuss the steps you used in completion of your Excel analysis.
•Based on your Excel analysis, give your recommendation as to which of the three investment alternatives should be pursued.
•Write clearly, simply, and logically. Use double-spaced, black Verdana or Times Roman font in 12 pt. type size.
•Have an introduction at the beginning to introduce the topics and use keywords as headings to organize the report.
•Avoid redundancy and general statements such as “All organizations exist to make a profit.” Make every sentence count.
•Paraphrase the facts using your own words and ideas, employing quotes sparingly. Quotes, if absolutely necessary, should rarely exceed five words.

After studying the background materials and completing the SLP, you are in an excellent position to evaluate a company’s published mission, vision, values, and objectives/goals. This Case asks you to begin your strategic analysis of Pepsico by evaluating the company’s mission, vision, values, and goals. To do this, observe the following procedure:
•Step 1: Visit the official website of Pepsico and identify the company’s vision, mission, values, and goals. (Hint: You will need to do some exploring and a certain amount of speculation—as the terms “vision” and “mission” (and sometimes even the term “company goals”) are used interchangeably. Explore the “Who We Are” and “Investors” (and other) links. Also, be sure that you look closely at the most recent Annual Reports.
•Step 2: Critically evaluate the mission, vision, values, and goals (again, you will likely need to make decisions as to which is which). Use the criteria in the background materials to support your assessment of the quality of the company’s mission, vision, values, and goals.
•Step 3: Determine which (if any) of the elements consider the goals and needs of specific stakeholder groups. Write down any examples.
•Step 4: Consider what changes are needed to improve the vision statement, the mission statement, the statement of company values, and the company’s objectives and goals.
•Step 5: Write a 6-7 page paper addressing the above requirements. You must meet minimum length requirements, by responding to each step above with precision and with depth of critical thinking.

NOTE THE FOLLOWING REQUIREMENTS AS WELL:
1.Use of proper APA style is required in this course. Therefore, prepare your Case with proper documentation of sources, using in-text citations and a complete end reference list. Refer to the Well-Written Paper guide if you are not familiar with APA style.

•Introduction: State the main purpose of the paper (thesis statement), what you hope to accomplish, and how you will go about doing it.
•Main Body: The “meat” of the paper. Emphasize analysis, not just description. Don’t just give me facts – interpret them! Delineate separate topics or sections with appropriate use of headings.
