Course Assessment – Essay Assignment.
Instructions
The essay part of the assessment for BU5596 International Finance consists of two parts – a problem and a traditional essay component. The combined essay assignment is worth 80 % of the total mark for the course. The remaining 20 % of the marks for the assessment are based on an in-class
quiz held on Wednesday 27 February.
The problem part of the essay assignment is worth 25 % of the grade for the essay assignment. The traditional essay component is worth 75 % of the total marks for the essay assignment. The essay assignment is an individual assignment. You may use whatever books, lecture notes, etc. you wish, but
you may not discuss either part of the essay assignment with anyone. In particular, you should not discuss either part of the assignment with
other students. Nor should you read another student’s assignment. You may ask me questions about the assignment.
For full-time students, the essay assignment must be submitted no later than 10:00 AM, Monday, 4 March 2019.
For part-time students, the essay assignment must be submitted no later than 10:00 AM, Monday, 11 March 2019.
Two paper copies of the essay assignment should be submitted. The traditional essay component of the essay assignment must be typed. The problem part of the essay assignment, which involves a decision tree, does not need to be typed. However, it should be written neatly and clearly. In order to grade the assignment, I must be able to read it.
For the paper copies, fasten both the problem part and the traditional essay component together with a stapler or other fastener before
submitting it. The paper copies should be submitted in the box labeled PGT Management near the Business School office on the second floor of the
Edward Wright Building. Click on the Assessment link of the My Aberdeen course webpage to download a copy of the cover sheet that should be
attached to each paper copy.
In addition, a copy of the traditional essay component must be submitted via Turnitin. See the regulations governing School Policies on
MyAberdeen for more details. Also, click on the Assessment link on the MyAberdeen course webpage. You do not have to submit the problem part of
the essay via Turnitin.
Note. If you have questions about either the format or content of the assignment, you should contact Prof. Joseph Swierzbinski.
Part A. Traditional Essay Component of the Essay Assignment (75 % of the total mark)
The traditional essay component of the essay assignment should not be more than 3000 words in length.
I would like you to write an essay discussing at least two and not more than three of the four concepts listed below.
i. the concept of diversification and its relation to the opportunity cost of capital.
ii. the concept of the law of one price and the idea of arbitrage.
iii. the concept of a call option.
iv. any other concept which was discussed in the course and which you believe to be interesting and important.
For each concept that you discuss, clearly explain the concept.
Also discuss why the concept is important for financial decision making and the analysis of investments.
Your grade for the traditional essay component will be based in part on (i) how clearly you explain the concepts you choose to discuss and (ii) how well you
explain why the concepts are important for financial decision making in general and for the analysis of investments. A well written, well organized
essay is also likely to earn a higher grade.
Part B. Problem Part of the Essay (25 % of the total mark) An investor (a venture capitalist) is considering whether or not to set up a
company to produce a new product. There are two periods, period 0 and period 1. The investor must decide whether to set up the company in period 0,
in period 1, or not to set up the company at all.
If the investor sets up the company in period 0, then the investor must pay a setup cost with a present value of F = 450 in period 0. In addition to paying
this cost, the investor will receive the net present value produced by the company in period 0, V0 = 100, and the net present value V1 produced in period 1. The net present values V0 and V1 include the revenue obtained from the sale of the new product minus varying operating costs and taxes.
However, as is common practice, these present values do not include the setup cost, F, which is specified as a separate item in this paragraph.
For simplicity, we also assume that setting up the company is instantaneous, so that the new product can be produced in the same period that the company
is set up. Note that the cost of setting up the company, F, is paid only in the period in which the company is first set up.
3
From the perspective of period 0, the net present value V1 produced by the company in period 1 is uncertain because of uncertainty in the future demand for the new product. The investor believes that there is a 50% chance that the
demand for the new product will be high at the beginning of period 1. In other words, there is a probability of 0.5 that the demand for the new product is high in period 1. In this case, the net present value produced by the company in
period 1 will take the high value VH = 600.
With probability 0.5, the demand for the new product will be low in period 1. In this case, the net present value produced by the company in period 1 will take
the low value VL = 150.
.
Suppose, for simplicity, that the net present value produced by the company in period 1 is the same whether the company is set up in period 0 or in
period 1. Suppose also that the present value of the cost setting up the company, F, is the same whether the company is set up in period 0 or in
period 1.
All numerical values for the net present values produced by the company and for the cost of setting up the company, F, are present values denominated in millions of pounds.
Suppose also that the investor is risk neutral and wishes to maximise the expected net present value of the opportunity to set up the company
(including the cost of setting up the company and, if necessary, the cost of the marketing study described below).
The investor has three choices in period 0. (i) The investor can choose to pay the setup cost F in period 0 and set up the company immediately in period 0.
(ii) The investor can choose in period 0 to abandon the opportunity to set up the company in either period 0 or period 1. In this case, the investor neither
receives nor loses anything and so obtains an expected net present value of 0. (iii) The investor can choose to defer the decision to setup the company
until period 1 and, in period 0, commission a marketing study to determine whether or not the demand for the new product will be high or low in period 1.
Let M indicate the present value of the cost of the marketing study. The cost M must be paid at the beginning of period 0.
By deferring the decision to setup the company and commissioning the marketing study, the investor learns whether or not the net present value
obtained by setting up the company in period 1 will be high or low before having to decide whether or not to pay the setup cost F to set up the company
in period 1. Of course, by choosing to wait until period 1, the investor also loses the net present value V0 that could have been produced by the company in period 0.
Suppose that the investor needs the results of the marketing study to know whether the demand for the new product will be high or low before he or she
must decide whether to set up the company in period 1. Hence, it makes no 4 sense for the investor in this example to defer the decision to set up the
company until period 1 unless the investor also commissions the marketing study.
Questions
(i) Draw a decision tree representing the decision problem facing the investor.
(ii) Suppose that M = 30 million pounds. What is the optimal policy for the investor to follow? Carefully explain your answer.
(iii) For what positive values of M would the investor’s optimal choice be to commission the marketing study and wait until period 1 to decide whether or not to set up the company? Carefully explain your reasoning.
(iv) Suppose now, for simplicity, that the cost of the marketing study is negligible. In particular, let M = 0. To what extent would you agree that, if
M = 0, then, for any positive values of V0, VH and VL, it would always be optimal to commission the marketing study and wait until period 1 to decide
whether or not to set up the company? Explain your answer.
(v) Continue to suppose that M = 0. To what extent would you agree that the expected net present value obtained by choosing to commission the
marketing study and wait until period 1 to decide whether or not to set up the company would always be at least as large as the expected net present value obtained by choosing in period 0 to abandon the opportunity to set up the company in either period 0 or period 1? Explain your answer. To what extent
does your explanation depend on the assumption that M = 0?
End of Questions.
Plagiarism. Plagiarism is taken very seriously by the University. You should read the section on plagiarism in the course booklet and the school policy on
Academic Integrity and ask me if you have any questions.
You must not quote from any source without explicitly acknowledging that source. If you copy from a source without a proper reference it is likely that Turnitin or I will detect it, and the consequences for you could be severe.

Art Appre & Art Appre Honors Paper
Tips for writing your paper (please see syllabus for instructions):
• In your paper, you firstly need to have a clear introduction. State the title of the piece you have chosen, the artist’s name, and what you intend to write about.
• So what are you writing about? Well first you might want to write a paragraph on what you know about the artist—where are they from, what is their background, what kind of art do they generally create. This information might have been included in an Artist Statement at the gallery opening you attended. If this kind of information was not provided at the opening, it is not required for your paper, it’s just nice to have. ?
• You most definitely need a visual analysis of your chosen work. This is your chance to use all of that vocab you’ve learned this semester. What is the medium? What elements of art are used? What principles of design are used? What does this work of art communicate to the viewer?
• Don’t forget you need a cover page with your name on it, and you also need a copy of your chosen piece attached to the paper.
Tips for those of you writing the Art Appre Honors Paper:
• You must write your paper on a Contemporary (meaning the artist is still alive) artist. If you are having difficulties finding an artist you like, first use your book as a reference, and come speak with me if you continue to have issues.
• First, give some background on your chosen artist. Who is this person? Where did they learn about art? What media do they generally work with? Do they have a common theme in their art? Who do they consider to be their influences? What other artists do they work with? These might be some of the questions you approach in your paper.
• Choose one work of art from this artist and give a full visual analysis of this work of art.
• Make sure you are following the guidelines in your syllabus about sources.

Research Project
Write an essay of 6 or more FULL pages that explores the following. (Page requirements never include the works cited page. You must have 6+ pages of text, plus your works cited page.)
Choose one of the stories that we’ve read this semester and explore its particularly contemporary issues. What does that cultural/historical moment further reveal about the literature? How can learning about the cultural/historical moment in which a text was composed help reveal more about that text?
For example, consider our discussion of Roupenian’s “Cat Person” in light of the #MeToo movement. You’ll turn that idea into a larger one.
You are responsible for a number of steps and due dates. Failure to turn something in on its due date will result in a 5-point deduction on the research essay’s overall grade.
• By Friday, March 15 you must provide a 1-2 page proposal in which you describe your paper’s argument and purpose. Underline or highlight your tentative thesis. There are samples in Blackboard.
• Also by Friday, March 15, submit an annotated bibliography showing at least 3+ academically appropriate secondary sources. There are samples in Blackboard.
• At least two of these sources must be from the library.
• Take a look at your syllabus–combined, these count as 10% of your grade, and I will not grade your
research paper without receiving them.
• Review http://streaming.sunyorange.edu/Watch/Jc8y3Y6K (to review library searching). It is for short
stories, but that is the video that Andy has made so far, and the concepts and skills are the same.
When you write your essay, remember:
Your essay should follow the structure you learned in English 101 and 102 and which we’ve discussed, and for which you have examples in Blackboard and in your book.
Provide both primary and secondary evidence to support your argument. However, remember that your paper should focus on your argument, not the regurgitation of a source’s argument.
Cite author and page number using MLA format when you quote, paraphrase, or summarize. Integrate your quoted material into the text; quotations do not speak for themselves. Say it, show it, and explain it. There are samples in Blackboard.
Format your entire paper using MLA manuscript format. Follow the sample in Blackboard.
Proofread for meaning, clarity, and mechanics. You may have a brilliant argument, but if it’s inaccessible due to lack of clarity, no one will get to read it.
Your project is due on Friday, April 19 in the drop box in Blackboard by 11:59 pm.
If the drop box misbehaves, you must email me your paper in .doc or .pdf format
I will not grade any late research papers. Failure to turn in a research paper on time will result in an F for the course.
Instructions for proposal, annotated bib, and article critique assignment are on the next page.?

Research Paper Proposal
For your research paper proposal, in about a page or two, reveal the plan for your research paper. Essentially, what do you plan to write about (your thesis), and how did you get to that thesis. It will probably end up looking like the introduction to your thesis, and you are welcome to use it as such. I am aware that this may be a new task for many of you–it is just to get you thinking about the project, and so that I can see your thought process. It does not need to be perfect. Underline and/or highlight your tentative thesis so that I can be sure to give you feedback.
Research Paper Annotated Bibliography
For the format of this assignment, see the sample in Blackboard. There will only be one drop box for your proposal and annotated bib, so they must be one document. Your annotated bib is, in short, your works cited page for your research paper with paragraphs for each source. For this assignment, you must have at least 3 academically appropriate secondary sources, just as you must have 3 secondary sources for your research paper. Your paragraph must include three things: 1. the MLA-formatted citation; 2. a brief summary of the article’s relevant main points; and 3. and evaluation of the article: how will it be useful to your paper. Hint: If you can’t answer that last part, you probably shouldn’t be using it. Take a look at the samples in this folder and the format should make sense.
Article Critique
In preparation for your research paper, you will critique one article of literary criticism from the library database that you have chosen as a secondary source fo your RP. In your critique, consider the following in an essay of no fewer than 2.5 pages:
• summarize the article’s main argument (thesis)
• discuss the articles’ strengths and weaknesses, considering logic, breadth, originality, writing style,
organization, etc.
• consider the article in relation to other articles you may have read on the same/a similar topic.
• What makes it successful/unsuccessful?
• What elements would you take from it in writing your own criticism (research paper)?
• What flaws would you avoid?
• What ideas from this article do you find applicable to your thinking and work? Which do you
question?
This essay will serve basically as a longer form of an annotated bibliography entry.
Choose an article that will be useful for your research paper. DO NOT CHOOSE A BOOK REVIEW OR INTERVIEW FOR THIS ASSIGNMENT. It will not go well.

PART A: REPLY WITH YOUR OWN WORDS WITH 100 WORDS+:
Rebecca:
I have in fact heard of Airbnb and I have also used Airbnb and it was a very pleasant experience. But before this video I did not know a lot about this company including how it started, I found that story pretty interesting and I was a little surprised that a big company like that was so easily made. The thing that this company did differently was that Joe Gebbia decided that there needed to be a better and more reliable way to trust people and have the customers feel safe in the house they are staying in. The way he accomplished this is by creating a review section for Airbnb and it is not just a review of the house and the host but also of the are and overall experience that was had at the particular location.
Part B: REPLY WITH YOUR OWN WORDS WITH 100 WORDS+:
Antonio:
AirBnB, I’ve heard of this company and after watching the video I had no clue of how it was started. Joe Gebbia is the prime example of entrepreneurship in times of need. There was a need to make money to pay his rent after his roommate had moved out. He recognized there would be an event coming to town with plenty of guest needed a place to stay but no rooms was available. Being the creative mind he were, he thought fast and provided room and breakfast to the guest by opening up his home and letting strangers stay. This was dangerous and he took the risk and made the money he needed for his rent and creating a company to provides comfortable stay for guest for any occasion. The idea of having breakfast for the guess was great for their brands and that added service make guess feel like the are home. Creating trust was a bit uncomfortable at first but Joe knew that he would have to give up his comfort to make his guess comfortable and he saw the difference it made. Airbnb are used by million of guest in America, the rates are cheap and homes are spacious.
You can get a comfortable stay no matter what
your family size is.
