Choose your ideal location based on demographics or other criteria that you can justify from the Case study.
Case Study:
If you were considering building a sportsplex somewhere in the northeastern United States, where would you build it? Choose your ideal location based on demographics or other criteria that you can justify. Then use the Internet to find an open plot of land that is large enough to sustain your facility. As an example, typical urban golf courses need around 110 to 120 acres, whereas resort courses are larger, averaging around 170 to 190 acres. A softball facility can range from 20 to 60 acres but could be much larger if additional land is acquired for future expansion. Thus, you need to make sure the plot of land is large enough. How much will it cost to purchase the land? Draw a rough diagram of the land and how your facility will fit on the land. Make sure you focus on the topography of the land and the orientation of the facility on the land.
The sportsplex I am required to create is a youth baseball outdoor facility for baseball tournaments. Age range of youth baseball 7-18 year old.

Project
Instructions: Read these instructions and each question carefully. Failure to follow these instructions will result in deductions from your grade. Additional instructions follow:
ALL WORK MUST BE ORIGINAL WORK, IN YOUR OWN WORDS. ALL CALCULATIONS, BALANCE SHEET AND STATEMENTS MUST BE CREATED USING YOUR OWN INFORMATION BASED ON WHAT IS PROVIDED
You are being asked throughout the project to replicate topics/materials. You MAY NOT use examples from class, the course textbook, other textbooks, the internet, or any other outside sources. This includes your own existing work product. Your old projects are considered your own existing work product. You must always create your own work product. You may never represent the work product of others as your work product. You must only produce current/original work product. Work product is defined as the answers that you provide to the hypothetical client. Violation of these instructions will result in a maximum score of 50% on the project. Said another way, rewrite everything, every time, in your own words.
If you believe a question is unanswerable, explain why and make any necessary assumption(s) and then answer the question. Make these assumptions at the beginning of your answer in Italic print (or otherwise highlighted) in order to stand out from the remainder of your answer.
If you believe a question has incorrect information, you are to make explicit reference to the incorrect information, provide corrected information, and answer the question. Make these corrections at the beginning of your answer in Italic print (or otherwise highlighted) in order to stand out from the remainder of your answer.
If you leave a question unanswered, partial credit cannot be granted. Therefore, make an attempt to answer all questions. Show your work for the maximum award of partial credit. In general, show your work. It helps the grader decipher your thought process.
Assume you are working with KHJ Consulting Inc., and the reader of your work product is a client of the firm. The reader is sound mathematically and has good comprehension and reasoning skills. You are to deliver a professional report, in terms of both quantitative and qualitative rigor, to the client summarizing the questions below.

Project Questions
All questions are equally weighted
Our client ITech Geek has several questions for us to answer as their consultant firm concerning valuation, which cash flows matter, the calculation of these cash flows, convergence to a perpetuity, and bond pricing, among others. These are outlined below.
Question 1
ITech Geek is a publicly traded technology company and has 5,000,000 shares outstanding. Their marginal tax rate of 30%. Assume ITech Geek plows-back 60% of its net income into retained earnings.
First, you are to create the necessary Balance Sheets and Income Statement (create own numbers for these two off what is provided in the question) and then calculate the annual Cash Flow from Assets (aka: CFFA or Free Cash Flows (FCF)) for ITech Geek. A constraint here, however, is that your CFFA must range between $20,000,000 and $24,000,000 annually. Second, assuming ITech Geek’s annualized WACC is 8% and its annualized CFFA are growing at 5%, you are to estimate the current value of ITech Geek.
Question 2
ITech Geek is not familiar with the mechanics of corporate bond valuation. They are interested in the fact that bond prices converge to their PAR value as the date to maturity nears. Explain this concept to ITech Geek management. (PROVIDE AN ORIGINAL EXAMPLE TO ASSIST WITH EXPLANATION)
Question 3
We have often discussed the formulas for the present value of a perpetuity (aka: no-growth perpetuity) and the present value of an ordinary annuity (aka: finite series of cash flows):
PV=CF/r (I)
PV= ∑_(i=1)^n▒CF/〖(1+r)〗^i (II)
With CF>0 and 0<r<1. We know that PV= CF/r converges to PV= ∑_(i=1)^n▒CF/〖(1+r)〗^i as n approaches ∞. ITech Geek management is confused about this concept. Illustrate to ITech Geek management that this is so and why is it important in terms of valuation.
Create a full essay about your event
Review the description of types of mass-wasting events in your textbook. You can also review the following
website: http://www.tulane.edu/~sanelson/geol204/masswastproc.htm. Then, find a source on a mass wasting event
and describe that example. All initial forum posts are due by the end of Thursday.
Armero Tragedy, Tolima, Colombia, November 1985 (23,000 Deaths)
For this event, consider the below questions for your mass wasting event choice and organize your essay with
these questions in mind. Not all mass wasting events are the same, so you might not find the answers to each one
of the questions for your chosen event. Provide as much information as you can find on the details and be sure to
provide a typical quality essay, that is, do not simple copy-paste the following questions and answer them with
names, numbers, and a simple sentence. Create a full essay about your event and include the answers to these
questions within your write up.
- When and where it occurred.
- The type of mass wasting event it represents.
- The death or casualty toll. (if any)
- The economic toll (if available)
- The cause of the event. (if known)
- Possible ways it could have been prevented or the death toll lessened. (if that was possible)
Title your main post with the location of the event and date. Choose an event that was not the topic of a previous
post. Include a photo and/or map of the event in your post. Don’t forget to attribute the source of your
information. 250 words of original discussion text, not including titles, quotes and references. Do not simply add
a list of answers to the above questions. Create a college-level post discussion, wherein you provide the
available information within complete sentences and full paragraphs.
Critically examine the ethics of British philosopher John Stuart Mill. critically examine the ethics of British philosopher John Stuart Mill.
NOTE: THIS IS A POST GRADUATE MASTER’S DEGREE LEVEL WRITING PAPER PROJECT AND
SHOULD BE WRITTEN AND TREATED AS SUCH BY AN ELIGIBLE POST GRADUATE PHILOSOPHY
WRITER.
This is an open term paper to critically examine the ethics of British philosopher John Stuart Mill. This is an
open paper to be written however you wish but in the form of an outline where Mill’s philosophy is critically
examined. This can be outlined in the format;
- Introducing J.S Mill and his philosophy,
- Explaining his philosophy
- Analyzing and critically examining his philosophy including analyzing how his philosophy stands in the
world of philosophy as well as the filed of social work. - Criticizing his philosophy
- And then reinforcing his philosophy
This is just an idea of how organized, critical and thorough the paper should be but I’m open to even better ideas
from the writer since this is a broad and open paper without strict instructions and outline.
Furthermore, since this is post graduate master’s degree level paper in which as I aspect will be handled by a
master’s degree level philosophy writer, I will welcome flexibility and even higher professionalism in the way
the writer chooses the write the paper.
Note: Online, textbook, outside and other sources can and should be used and should be cited throughout the
body of the paper as well as a reference page included at the end of the paper. At least TWO sources MUST be
used but can include more at the discretion of the writer.

Workbook
Welcome to NURS 1450 Leadership and Management in Adult Nursing
You are about to qualify as an adult nurse which is a complex and diverse field of nursing. The scenarios in this workbook provide you with the opportunity to apply knowledge of professional issues to realistic scenarios that you may face in the workplace.
It is important that you discuss and relate leadership and management styles and other relevant material taught in the module within these scenarios. You are advised to refer and include the NHS Leadership Model. You may also wish to link the impact of COVID 19 to the issues you discuss in the workbook.
These scenarios relate to the following professional issues:
- Care and compassion (compulsory)
- Time Management and prioritisation (option A)
- Risk management (option B)
- Safeguarding (option C)
You should complete two reports centred around a discussion of the professional issue in relation to the outlined scenario. Professional issue 1. Care and compassion is compulsory, you may choose 1 other and for each:
- Write a concise report of 1250 words therefore, total word allowance is 2,500. You may use sub-headings to structure your report
- Provide an overview of the professional issues raised in the scenario and outline the potential impact of these on patient outcome supported by relevant contemporary evidence.
- Critically discuss with rationale how you would respond to this scenario demonstrating safe and effective practice in line with The Code (NMC 2018)
- You should discuss related professional issues such as leadership, accountability, confidentiality and the patient experience.
- You should discuss practice implications in relation to relevant national or professional guidance and policy
- You may provide one reference list for both reports.
You should refer to additional guidance provided by the Module leader in the assignment preparation sessions on the Module and on the Module Moodle shell.
Professional issue 1 – Care and compassion (compulsory)
Being unwell or admitted to a hospital can be an extremely stressful life event. Adult nurses are in a privileged position to support patients through this time by providing compassionate care. This scenario provides an opportunity for you to demonstrate your understanding of compassionate care in line with Standards for competence for registered nurses (NMC, 2018).

It is the night shift and you are looking after a 70 year old man admitted with an exacerbation of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease. After handover you notice that his mouth appears very dry and he asks for some water. He tells you he hasn’t had anything to drink all afternoon. His water jug is full but he tells you he can’t pour it himself due to the shakes in his hand caused by his medication. You challenge the day staff about this as they leave who respond that it has been so busy they didn’t even get a chance for a break. They say that the ward should have a housekeeper who could make sure patients get fed and watered as it’s not really their job.

Your discussion must centre around care and compassion.
Professional issue 2 – Time management and prioritisation
Time management and prioritising clinical demands are challenges you will face throughout your career as a nurse. Whether you work in the community or acute health setting you will face constant demands on your time which will require you to make many clinical decisions. This scenario provides an opportunity to demonstrate safe and effective clinical decision making in line with Standards for competence for registered nurses (NMC, 2018).

You are a newly qualified nurse working in an acute medical ward. You receive handover for a bay of six patients. The health care assistant you are expecting to work with has not arrived on shift yet. Patient 1 (Mr Brown) is frail and confused and is wandering around the ward. The night nurse tells you he has been a nuisance overnight which has prevented her doing much of her work. Patient 2 (Mr Green) has just arrived from the emergency department with pneumonia. The night nurse hands over that he still hasn’t received his first dose of intravenous antibiotics yet. She states that he seemed quite short of breath when she admitted him but hasn’t had a chance to review him as she has been trying to get the Mr Brown back to bed. Patient 3 (Mr Black) is a surgical patient and is due to go to theatre this morning for an appendicectomy. Patient 4 (Mr Grey) has been admitted with acute sickle cell crisis. He is requesting some subcutaneous morphine which is prescribed. You looked after the two other patients yesterday and understand they are in a stable condition. Directly after handover the consultant arrives and asks you to attend the ward round.
| Continue on additional pages as necessary |
Your discussion must centre around time management and prioritisation.
Professional issue 3 – Risk management
There are many risks in healthcare. Nurses must be able to safely recognise and assess risks and instigate prevention strategies appropriately. Risk cannot be totally removed from healthcare and incidents may occur occasionally. Nurses must be alert to recognise incidents when they occur and immediate incident management including immediate management and reporting. This scenario provides an opportunity for you to demonstrate safe and effective risk management in line with Standards for competence for registered nurses (NMC, 2018).

You are admitting a patient to the ward. She has been admitted with a urinary tract infection and you learn that she has a history of mild dementia. She is partially sighted and you are informed she has left her glasses at home. She has a history of falls both at home and on previous admissions. She seems anxious about coming into hospital but says she doesn’t want to be a burden on the nurses as she knows you are so busy.
| Continue on additional pages as necessary |
Your discussion must centre around risk management.
Professional issue 4 – Safeguarding
Working as an adult nurse it is likely you will come into contact with vulnerable patients. A working knowledge of safeguarding is crucial in order to recognise potential safeguarding issues and take appropriate action. This scenario provides an opportunity to demonstrate an understanding of safeguarding in line with Standards for competence for registered nurses (NMC, 2018).
