The Evolution of Media

Over the past several decades, communication media have evolved significantly. In addition to communicating messages through books, newspapers, and magazines, we now have the ability to communicate through blogs, websites, and social media like Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube. Now, more than ever, the average person is capable of creating and distributing professional looking visual communication. This supports what your textbook identifies as perhaps the most significant change; these “new technologies are forcing journalists, advertisers, PR professionals, and entertainment executives to relinquish their role as ‘gatekeepers’ of information.” 

Taking a look at one of the professions listed in this quote, or even your own profession, reflect on how the role of “gatekeeper” is being redefined, given these new technologies. What are the benefits and challenges associated with this change, both from a business perspective and a social perspective? Are there any ethical concerns associated with this shift?

This journal entry should allow you to thoroughly reflect upon what you have learned thus far in class, and provides you an opportunity to relate this learning to your professional and/or personal experiences. Your journal entry may be written in a more informal style, with a focus on clearly conveying your ideas. APA formatting elements are not required for your journal entry, but you are expected to adhere to conventional rules of grammar, sentence structure, spelling, and punctuation.

1.      Use the data given to calculate annual returns for Goodman, Landry, and the Market Index, and then calculate average annual returns for the two stocks and the index. (Hint: Remember, returns are calculated by subtracting the beginning price from the ending price to get the capital gain or loss, adding the dividend to the capital gain or loss, and then dividing the result by the beginning price. Assume that dividends are already included in the index. Also, you cannot calculate the rate of return for 2008 because you do not have 2007 data.)

 

2.      Calculate the standard deviations of the returns for Goodman, Landry, and the Market Index. (Hint: Use the sample standard deviation formula given in the chapter, which corresponds to the STDEV function in Excel.)

 

3.      Estimate Goodman’s and Landry’s betas as the slopes of regression lines with stock return on the vertical axis (y axis) and market return on the horizontal axis (x axis). (Hint: Use Excel’s SLOPE function.) Are these betas consistent with your graph?

 

4.      The risk free rate on long term Treasury bonds is 6.04%. Assume that the market risk premium is 5%. What is the required return on the market using the SML equation?

 

5.      If you formed a portfolio that consisted of 50% Goodman stock and 50% Landry stock, what would be its beta and its required return?

 

6.      What dividends do you expect for Goodman Industries stock over the next 3 years if you expect you expect the dividend to grow at the rate of 5% per year for the next 3 years? In other words, calculate D1, D2, and D3. Note that D0 = $1.50.

 

7.      Assume that Goodman Industries’ stock, currently trading at $27.05, has a required return of 13%. You will use this required return rate to discount dividends. Find the present value of the dividend stream; that is, calculate the PV of D1, D2, and D3, and then sum these PVs.

 

8.     If you plan to buy the stock, hold it for 3 years, and then sell it for $27.05, what is the most you should pay for it?

 

Use the following information for Question 9:

 

Suppose now that the Goodman Industries (1) trades at a current stock price of $30 with a (2) strike price of $35. Given the following additional information: (3) time to expiration is 4 months, (4) annualized risk free rate is 5%, and (5) variance of stock return is 0.25.

 

9.   What is the price for a call option using the Black Scholes Model?

A Dashboard for Online Pricing

Abstract (summary)

 

One primary difference between the online marketplace and the high street is the quality of information about product characteristics and prices that are available to all consumers and retailers. Successful online retailers exploit this rich information through innovative dynamic pricing strategies. This article identifies important considerations for devising online pricing strategies. It presents five case studies that illustrate how these strategies have been applied by successful online retailers and discusses complementary practices in innovative management and data analysis. We present a “Dashboard” of market specific information that will help managers identify and respond to opportunities and threats arising in the online marketplace. [PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]

Unit 8, Assignment 2: Case Analysis

 

Scenario:

 

Greg Allen is an employee, shareholder, director and the president of Greg Allen Construction Corp. In 1996, Daniel and Sondra Estelle hired Allen’s firm to renovate a home they owned in Ladoga, Indiana. To finance the cost, they obtained a line of credit from Banc One, Indiana, which required periodic inspections to disburse funds. Allen was on the job every day and supervised all of the work.

 

He designed all of the structural changes, including a floor system for the bedroom over the living room, the floor system of the living room, and the stairway to the second floor. He did all of the electrical, plumbing, and carpentry work and installed all of the windows. He did most of the drywall taping and finishing and most of the painting.

 

The Estelles found much of this work to be unacceptable, and the bank’s inspector agreed that it was of poor quality.

 

When Allen failed to act on the Estelle’s complaints, they filed a suit in an Indiana State court against Allen Construction Corporation and Allen personally, alleging in part that his individual work on the project was negligent. Can both Allen and his corporation be held liable for this tort? Explain.

 

In responding to the question be sure to:

 

Analyze whether or not a director/officer can be held liable for the torts of the Greg Allen Construction Corporation.

Discuss whether or not the facts would constitute the type of act protected by the corporate entity.
