Finance investement project

For this Part, you will be making a report to your investment committee that discusses and summarizes the performance of your stock portfolio. Use closing prices as of Sunday of Week 13, April 18, to calculate your returns. What is the final market value of your portfolio (including dividends received and added to non-interest earning cash)? If the final market value of your portfolio is less than $1,000,000, your portfolio lost money.

the stocks are 

NATIONAL HEALTH INVESTORS. Ticker: NHI

Artisan Partners Asset Management Inc Ticker: APAM

International Business Machines. Ticker: IBM

NextEra Energy, Inc. Ticker: NEE
Safety Insurance Group, Inc. Ticker: SAFT

Provide a graph of the daily stock prices (high, low, and closing) for each of your stocks. Include the volume on each graph, with the scale shown on the right side of the graph. Be sure to label the graphs!

Provide a graph of the value of your portfolio and the value of the closing S&P 500 if $1,000,000 were invested in that initially. This is the normalized value. By normalized, you have scaled the S&P 500 closing prices so that its price on the first day ($1,000,000) is the same as the portfolio’s closing price on that first day.

In the final section of your report, recommend for or against the inclusion of each of these stocks in the portfolio and defend your recommendation. Use the information you have obtained in Part 1 Deliverable 2 to support your argument.

Calculations: Use the closing price of your stocks on Sunday of Week 13, April 18, to calculate your returns.

  1. Report the “purchase” and “sale” price of your stocks from the beginning and end of the semester along with any dividends you might have received.
    1. Calculate the buy-and-hold return on each stock [(MVend – MVbeginning + DIV) / MVbeginning] and the buy-and-hold return on your portfolio.
    2. Determine the final market value of your portfolio (including dividends received). If the final market value of your portfolio is less than $1,000,000, your investment lost money.
  2. Calculate the market value of
    1. Your portfolio for each day (including cash). I suggest that you do this by adding up the daily closing market values of your assets held and the cash you hold, including the total dividends received up to date.
    2. The S&P 500 index over this same period assuming you keep the same amount in cash. We are using the S&P 500 index as our proxy for the market.
  3. Plot the daily market value of your portfolio and the daily market value of the S&P 500 using your calculations in #3. (Dates on the X-axis, values on the Y-axis)
  4. Using the market values you calculated in #3, calculate the daily returns (percent) for your portfolio and the S&P 500 index.
  5. Using your calculations in #5, calculate
    1. The average daily return and the standard deviation of daily returns for both the S&P 500 index and your portfolio.
    2. your portfolio’s beta by calculating the covariance of your portfolio’s daily returns with the S&P 500’s daily returns and dividing that by the variance of the S&P 500.
  6. Plot risk-return relationships for your portfolio and S&P500 benchmark for 1 year prior to January 31, 2021 and for the holding period since February 1, 2021.
  7. Discuss any changes that took place in terms of your portfolio relative performance compared to S&P500. What, in your view, explains these changes?

Write-up: Assume that you are preparing a relatively short report (maximum of 10 pages double-spaced) for your investment committee. You will be graded on the quality of your writing as well as the quality of your analysis. Do not simply answer the following questions – this should be a financial report! These questions are intended to provide guidance.

  1. Introduction
  2. Comment on the individual and portfolio returns and on any information/events (market-wide or firm-specific) that may have contributed to the performance of your stocks. Describe and explain any trades you made. (Suggested length: a short, concise paragraph for each stock).
  3. From your calculations, if you held the S&P 500 instead of your stocks, how much money would you have ended up with? Would you have been better or worse off to hold the index? Analyze the reasons for any differences.
  4. Based on your calculations for standard deviation and beta, how risky was your portfolio compared to the index? Again, analyze the causes of the differences.
  5. Finally, what are your plans going forward? That is, if this class continued and you had the chance to alter your portfolio holdings now, would you choose to sell any of your stocks or would you want to keep holding them? What will you tell the investment committee? Be explicit.

Deliverables:

  1. Your report (7 – 10 pages double-spaced, 12 pt. font) plus graphs.
  2. Spreadsheet of returns and calculations, and market value plots – make it neat and readable.

2.2 Discussion: What Is Leadership

 

Getting Started

Recognizing good organizational leader characteristics is important, not only to ensure that your leadership style is benefiting the organization but also to identify these characteristics in others so they can provide the greatest service to the organization.

This assignment is a continuation of material from Chapter 1 and your 1.2 Discussion. This material will help you understand organizational leader characteristics as you consider and defend your perspectives and consider those of your peers.

Upon successful completion of this discussion, you will be able to:

  • Evaluate leadership styles.

Resources

  • Textbook: Leadership: Enhancing the Lessons of Experience

Background Information

In this discussion, you will consider the various definitions of leadership as provided in the textbook from the authors’ review of literature in the field of leadership. You will also explore the concept of leadership as both rational and emotional as well as the differences between the roles of a manager versus the roles of a leader.

The concept of followership is also introduced in this assignment’s reading from the textbook, as well as the growing role of women in leadership positions and responsibilities.

Instructions

  1. Review the rubric to make sure you understand the criteria for earning your grade.
  2. Review Chapter 1, “What Do We Mean by Leadership?”, in our textbook. As you review, reflect upon the definitions of leadership and how these definitions and other aspects of leadership add to your prior understanding of a leader’s role in an organization. 
  3. Conduct a critical analysis of the postings by two of your classmates from the posts submitted in 1.2 by the end of the workshop and should be written as if you were reviewing their posting in an academic journal. Your discussion response should, therefore, answer the following questions as applicable:
    1. Were three leadership definitions clearly defined with examples and clear, insightful critical thinking? Comment on two of the three definitions of leadership presented in the post of your classmates. Do you agree or disagree with their interpretation of the definition of leadership? Provide rationale from personal examples or subject matter expert opinions. 
    2. Did the discussion of leadership as an art or a science include a detailed explanation that demonstrates clear, insightful critical thinking? Review your classmates’ posts. Does their explanation support defining leadership as either an “art” or a “science”? Explain. 
    3. Was the concept of spiritual gifts effectively discussed, relating the concept to that of leadership styles?   
    4. In addition to commenting on the critical thinking displayed in the post, offer your comments on the original post and provide your overall agreement or disagreement with the poster’s concept of leadership. Your response to each question above should be one paragraph in length and cite one academic source.   
  4. Interactions are expected to: 
    1. Clearly and thoroughly address the prompt(s) with meaningful information that shows critical thinking. 
    2. Introduce your own ideas and questions to add greater depth to the discussion, rather than restating what your classmates have shared. (Include much more than “Great post,” or “I agree.”) 
    3. Refer to relevant course concepts as you discuss your learning together. 
    4. Develop insightful conversation by directly addressing your classmates’ ideas. 
    5. Demonstrate professionalism. 
  5. Your response posts are due by the end of the workshop.

2.3 Assignment: Power and Influence

 

Getting Started

In this assignment, you will write an essay on the concepts of power and influence, contrasting what you learned in Chapter 4 of our textbook with principles of servant leadership from the supplemental resources noted below. This assignment should cause you to reflect on how the proper use of power and influence can enhance the leader’s ability to effectively lead.

Upon successful completion of this assignment, you will be able to:

  • Discuss similarities and differences between servant leadership and other leadership styles.

Resources

  • Textbook: Leadership: Enhancing the Lessons of Experience
  • Video: Ken Blanchard – Servant Leadership
  • Video: Why good leaders make you feel safe – Simon Sinek
  • Article: “Servant Leadership: How to Put Your People Before Yourself”

Background Information

It has been said that leadership, simply stated, is influence, the ability to use a position of leadership to influence behavior and positive change within an organization. Many leaders, of course, have different perceptions of how to influence others, utilizing power in negative ways rather than positive ways. The concept of servant leadership emphasizes the positive ways in which a leader can influence followers and initiate positive change within an organization.

Instructions

  1. Review the rubric to make sure you understand the criteria for earning your grade.
  2. Read Chapter 4, “Power and Influence”, in our textbook.
  3. Watch the video Ken Blanchard – Servant Leadership.
  4. Watch the video Why good leaders make you feel safe – Simon Sinek.
  5. Review the article “Servant Leadership: How to Put Your People Before Yourself”.
  6. Reflect upon the concepts of a leader’s power and influence, in particular how the ideas from servant leadership enhance this aspect of a leader’s abilities and success.
  7. Write a paper incorporating information from our textbook and the supplemental material on servant leadership:
    1. Compare and contrast the concepts of power and influence as discussed in the textbook with what you discover about servant leadership from the supplemental readings above. Provide a detailed explanation for your evaluation that demonstrates clear, insightful critical thinking.
    2. Give an example from your personal experience where you did not agree with the exercise of power and influence. Would the application of servant leadership principles have affected the outcome? Why or why not? Provide a detailed explanation for your evaluation that demonstrates clear, insightful critical thinking.
  8. Your paper should be 400–500 words in length. Use proper spelling, grammar, and APA style in your paper and for any sources cited. For questions on APA style, go to OCLS APA Writing Styles Guides.
  9. When you have completed your assignment, save a copy for yourself and submit a copy to your instructor by the end of the workshop.

2.4 Assignment: Ethics and Values

 

Getting Started

In this assignment, you will discuss the principles of ethics and values described in Chapter 5 of our textbook, applying those principles to your workplace and experience.

Leaders are continually required to make decisions that fall into areas where there is no one “right” answer.

Knowing how to analyze these situations from a moral and ethical framework will assist the leader in more effectively leading and, in some cases, keep the leader from having to defend against charges of ethics violations.

As Proverbs 22:1 says, “A good name is more desirable than great riches; to be esteemed is better than silver or gold” (New International Version).

Upon successful completion of this assignment, you will be able to:

  • Analyze ethical and moral implications of a leadership situation.

Resources

  • Textbook: Leadership: Enhancing the Lessons of Experience
  • Article: Virtuous Leaders and Organization
  • Article: Making Business Virtuous 

Background Information

According to our textbook, “Leaders face dilemmas that require choices between competing sets of values and priorities, and the best leaders recognize and face them with a commitment to doing what is right, not just what is expedient” (Hughes, Ginnett, & Curphy, 2019, p. 143).

The authors provide a theoretical and practical framework for leadership values and ethics, providing the reader with helpful information on subjects such as moral and ethical reasoning, the concepts of authentic and servant leadership, leading by example, creating and sustaining an ethical climate, and principle-centered leadership.

Instructions

  1. Review the rubric to make sure you understand the criteria for earning your grade.
  2. Read Chapter 5, “Values, Ethics, and Character” in our textbook. As you read, reflect on how a leader can effectively influence an organization’s commitment to ethics, values, and moral behavior. In that chapter, the authors refer to the research of Rushworth Kidder, who identified four ethical dilemmas that are common to our personal and organizational experience, including three principles for resolving ethical dilemmas.
  3. From the Spring 2017 issue of The DeVoe Report, read the article by Dr. Mark Brooker and Dr. Jeffrey Boyce, “Virtuous Leaders & Organizations.”
  4. Review the article Making Business Virtuous.
  5. While the 2.4 Assessment is not required, you are encouraged to access the questions, engage with the material, and assess your knowledge about Virtuous Business before moving on to instructions 6–9. This exercise is an opportunity for you to deepen your understanding of this as well as future assignments.  As you complete this assessment, consider the following:
    1. Would a virtuous leader question the morality of an existing or potential law? 
    2. Would a virtuous leader hire a lobbyist to delay or kill costly but morally and ethically appropriate legislation?
    3. Would a virtuous leader violate virtuous principles, even if legal, when doing business in foreign countries?
    4. How is Servant Leadership related to Virtuous Business?
  6. After completing the 2.4 Assessment and reflecting on the questions above, write a paper incorporating information from our textbook and the supplemental readings. Be sure to provide detailed explanations for your evaluations that demonstrate clear, insightful critical thinking.
    1. Describe your personal experiences with one or more of the ethical dilemmas described by Kidder and how they were resolved or should have been resolved.
    2. How can an ethical and values-driven corporate culture influence the effective outcome of ethical dilemmas, and what is the leader’s responsibility in developing that culture? 
    3. Provide at least two citations from the “Making Business Virtuous” white paper which support your explanation.
  7. Your paper should be 400–500 words in length.
  8. Use proper spelling, grammar, and APS style in your paper and for any sources cited. For questions on APA style, go to OCLS APA Writing Styles Guides.
  9. When you have completed your assignment, save a copy for yourself and submit a copy to your instructor by the end of the workshop.

Rachelle Mensch is a nurse manager for a 22-bed critical care unit (CCU) in a community hospital in Macon, Georgia. Nurse Mensch is responsible for evaluating all employees who work in the CCU. The hospital has a process whereby all employees are evaluated in the same month to take care of evaluation at one time. Nurse Mensch has a total of 50 employees who work in the CCU and must complete all the evaluations in the month of January. She has been busy and has not had the opportunity to keep monthly records of employee performance. It is now December, and the first evaluation should be scheduled for the first week in January. Because of the urgency of completing the evaluations, Nurse Mensch schedules one day to observe all employees. During the observation day, she makes many notations but realizes that she has not observed everyone. Because of the time constraints, Nurse Mensch decides to evaluate the rest of the employees whom she has not observed from events she remembers.

1. What types of evaluator errors is Nurse Mensch making both when she evaluates employees by memory and when she evaluates many over the course of just one day? how can this evolution error be corrected? 

2. Describe three methods Nurse Mensch could have used (or combined) to collect useful performance data for her employees, citing disadvantages and risks.

3. Based on chapter 12 explain the components of a successful performance evaluation process as a nurse leader. Provide example to support your statement.

Write a two to three (2-3) page report in which you:

  1. Calculate the mean, median, and standard deviation for ounces in the bottles.
  2. Construct a 95% Confidence Interval for the ounces in the bottles.
  3. Conduct a hypothesis test to verify if the claim that a bottle contains less than sixteen (16) ounces is supported. Clearly state the logic of your test, the calculations, and the conclusion of your test.
  4. Provide the following discussion based on the conclusion of your test:

a. If you conclude that there are less than sixteen (16) ounces in a bottle of soda, speculate on three (3) possible causes. Next, suggest the strategies to avoid the deficit in the future.

Or

b. If you conclude that the claim of less soda per bottle is not supported or justified, provide a detailed explanation to your boss about the situation. Include your speculation on the reason(s) behind the claim, and recommend one (1) strategy geared toward mitigating this issue in the future.
