Based on a Tshirt Business

This discussion will also assist everyone as your complete your business plans.  I want everyone to think about (if you have not already) the form of business you would like to establish… discuss this and explain why you have selected that form.  For example, if you have decided to form a corporation, why is that your selection?  If you decide to operate “on your own” as  a sole proprietor, why do you plan to do that?

Also, what are the advantages and disadvantages of the business form you selected? 

Finally, originally, I had included one more question here regarding franchising, but I am going to shift just a bit….

…… has anyone ever thought about going into business by purchasing an existing business for sale?  What would you consider purchasing, and what are the advantages of this option?

1. Write a positive essay about one of the key individuals of the Revolution: Thomas Jefferson, Benjamin Franklin, George Washington, Swamp Fox, Betsy Ross, etc. Here’s a list of many  of those for you to consider: https://guides.lib.jjay.cuny.edu/c.php?g=288395&p=1922291 (Links to an external site.) You must have three reliable sources (books or journals, no Wikipedia). Except for books, I expect you to use journals from the Delta data bases.  http://www.ladelta.edu/Default.aspx?PageID=16357912&A=SearchResult&SearchID=15227360&ObjectID=16357912&ObjectType=1 (Links to an external site.)  If you need help doing this, see or email our librarian. Do not wait until the last minute to seek help.  Here are what should be covered in each of the five paragraphs:

a.First paragraph: Introduce your individual with a three-point thesis arguing something about that individual.  Do not list historical facts. I want you to argue something about this individual.

b. Second paragraph:  Topic sentence is built on first point of thesis sentence.  Quote a source, introducing it with a signal phrase and then explain why the quote is important and expand the argument of your point with examples, comparisons, etc.

c. Third and fourth paragraphs are built on second and third point of thesis sentence following guidelines of point b. above.

d. Final paragraph: Your conclusion, sum up your arguments about this individual. Include a great quote about this person if you wish.

2. A book analysis of Killing England: The Brutal Struggle for American Independence.  You will have to purchase this book, (Amazon, etc.) in either print or digital (Kindle) form. You will not regret the purchase. This will be the only source required. Your analysis should be outlined as follows:

Intro Paragraph: Hook, title of book, author. Thesis that states your argument about the value of the book. This does not have to be in three-points.

Paragraph 1: What you learned that surprise you. Include page numbers and appropriate quotes.

Paragraph 2: What individuals in our struggle for independence most impressed you?

February 17th, 2021 Humanities, Undergraduate Comments Off on Explain the concept of aret

Explain the concept of aret

Read the excerpts from Homers Iliad (Links to an external site.) Book 16 and Odyssey (Links to an external site.) Book 9, pp. 138-143 [Follow the links it you want to explore more of the text]. Explain the concept of aret with specific examples from the text and discuss what details you can determine about life in archaic Greece, include clothing and weapons, social interactions, and religion. Your paper must be at least 775 original words in length and in MLA format.

Formatting Guidelines:

This essay must be well-written, and free of spelling and grammatical errors. The essay will be judged on the quality of your understanding of your chosen topic and discussion of the historiography. You should be able to organize a large body of material and facts (and too few facts that are reliable) in order to produce a coherent argument about your topic that is well organized and supported by primary and secondary sources.

Style: Times New Roman 12 point

Sources: Use academic sources only. Avoid the internet as a secondary source (it can be useful for preliminary research but look up the references and use them instead). The library has a small collection of books and journals but does has access to many more online. Use JSTOR to find scholarly articles. Primary sources can be harder to find and you may need to use an online version. This is fine but be careful that it is from a reliable source.

Referencing: you should use MLA Style (parenthetical) referencing

The Efficient Market Hypothesis and Accounting Information

Instruction:

Debate:  The Efficient Market Hypothesis and Accounting Information

It has been argued that by the time financial statements are issued, the market price of shares already reflects the information contained in them; hence, accounting information is not relevant.

Present arguments that given the EMH, accounting information is relevant.

Template:

Introduction

Summary (claim/argument)
How is it relevant (evidence/proof)
Critique the source (So what?  Why does this matter?)
