GRADED DISCUSSION WEEK 7
Please note that if you edit your initial response (Original Post), you will not get credit for the Original Post. The discussions are set up as “Must post first”.
In your initial response to the topic you have to answer all questions.
1) For your first topic in this discussion I would like for you to briefly review either your personal experiences and/or the financial literature to identify and present a description of one actual capital project/product success and the reasons attributed to the success.
Remember this is a one to two paragraph exercise – do not go overboard – a few hours research and summation is all thats required. I am interested only in your short, concise description of the project and the major reasons you believe it was successful.
2) In your response please provide financial information regarding the project (what is available): initial outlay, projected cash flows, dollar profits.
3) Synthesize your one-paragraph position on what 3-5 specific factors you believe most likely to contribute to capital project analysis success.
4) Reflection the students also should include a paragraph in the initial response in their own words reflecting on specifically what they learned from the assignment and how they think they could apply what they learned in the workplace.
You are expected to make your own contribution in a main topic as well as respond with value added comments to at least two of your classmates as well as to your instructor.
