Describing fundamental statistical concepts and the interpretation of these statistical applications for an appropriate design selection and accurate statistical analysis is a critical skill for doctoral students completing a dissertation. Reviewing some prior doctoral dissertations helps to hone these analytical skills and capabilities. For the weekly assignment, the basic guidelines will help to complete the criteria for the paper: Locate two or three prior doctoral dissertations that use either a correlational or regression methodology(US-based & business related) Review Chapters 1 and 3 of the selected dissertations and identify the distinctive design elements that pertain to the particular correlation or regression design. The use of statistical applications should be evident in an overview of the nature and scope of the dissertation research study in Chapter 1. More relevant details and applications are explained in Chapter 3 of the dissertation. Assess the design, major statistical concepts, applications, and methodologies. Select one of the dissertations for the completion of the paper. Write a 3 page paper that includes a synopsis of the research design and methodologies. Describe how major statistical concepts were applied in the context of the research study and the administration of the selected dissertation. Analyze the major features of the correlation or regression design itself and explain how the applications fit the selected model. Did the hypotheses include sufficient testing to respond adequately to the research questions? Provide justification for the response. Explain any potential gaps in the research study. Gaps include variables or elements that are pertinent to the study topic or context of the study setting, but appear to be missing or minimally studied in the research. Gaps might also include any expansions or extensions to the original study context that might make the outcomes more meaningful. Draw conclusions about the overall research study design elements and the overall effectiveness or validity of the outcomes.  

1. Use the following guidance to complete the System Security Plan using the template from Appendix A of NIST SP 800-18.a. Sections 1 through 10 will contain information provided in the assigned case study. You may need to “interpret” that information when writing the descriptions. “Fill in the blanks” for information about the company or its managers which is not provided in the case study, i.e. names, email addresses, phone numbers, etc.). Make sure that your fictional information is consistent with information provided in the case study (name of company, locations, etc.).b. Section 11 should contain information about the Wilmington, DE headquarters office’s Internet connection Do not include the table. Use the business Internet Services Provider listed at the top of this assignment file. Describe the system interconnection type in this section and service level agreement.c. Section 12 should contain information derived from the case study. You will need to identify the types of information processed in the headquarters offices and then list the laws and regulations which apply. For example, if the case study company processes or stores Protected Health Information, then this section must include information about HIPAA. If the company processes or stores credit card payment information, then this section must include information about the PCI-DSS requirements. For the Headquarters Offices you also have financial information which may be covered by regulations issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission.d. Section 13 of the SSP will take the most research and writing time. You MUST provide the required descriptive paragraphs for the three categories AND the explanations as to how the security controls within the control families will be used to secure the IT infrastructure. You MUST use the selected security control families and security controls as provided security controls baseline.

1. BUSINESS ORGANIZATIONSJaffe Desk and Jordan Reilly just graduated from UC with a master’s degree in marketing and public health. They want to establish healthcare business that will source and distribute pharmaceutical products in the United States and internationally. Jaffe and Jordan know that before they can invest their time and other resources in the project, they must obtain financing, which means that they must raise money to pay for the investment cost and other operating expenses. Because the company might not be listed in any capital market right away, they will not be able to raise equity funding from the public. Therefore, they are considering raising long-term capital from various sources including angel investors, venture capital market, bank loans, crowdfunding, and initial coin offerings (ICOs). They learnt in corporate finance course the advantages and disadvantages of different forms of business organizations. They are worried about the legal concept of limited liabilityand how it will affect their personal fortunes in the future in case the business fails. They are not very sure which form of business organization to set up to protect their personal liability, reduce taxes, and access external funding. Therefore, they are considering a partnership, a limited liability, or a corporation. A cash budget they prepared shows that $5 million seed money would be needed to hire staff, buy computers, rent an office space, promote, and market the business as well as to meet other business development expenditures. They have agreed to share profits and losses equally if they decide to form a limited partnership. The general partner will, however, be paid a fixed salary of $6,000 per month before taxes and other payroll deductions.In order to make good and right decision, Jaffe and Jordan have approached you to help them understand the concept of limited liability, advantages, and disadvantages of the various forms of business organizations and possible sources of funding for the business. Explain the legal concept of limited liability to Jaffe and JordanGive 2 advantages and 2 disadvantages of each of the following forms of business organization to Jaffe and Jordan:partnership,limited liability, andcorporation3.Ultimately, what form of business organization would you recommend Jaffe and Jordan to consider. Why?4.Based on your recommendation above, explain to Jaffe and Jordan if the following sources of raising long-term capital are appropriate for them:angel investors (angels)crowdfundingventure capitalinitial coin offering, andlong-term debt 2. FINANCIAL STATEMENT ANALYSIS AND FINANCIAL MODELSJaffe and Jordan want to use financial planning models to prepare a projected (pro forma) financial statement to determine the profitability and financial health of the business for next year, ending Dec 31, 2021. Use the pro forma financial statement below to answer the following questions:PRO FORMA INCOME STATEMENT($millions)Total operating revenues82Less expenses27Less depreciation9Earnings before interest and taxes46Less interest4Net income before taxes42Less taxes @ 23.8%10Net income32PRO FORMA BALANCE SHEETAssets:Cash19Other current assets28Net Fixed Assets40Total Assets87Liabilities and Equities:Accounts payable12Long-term debt28Stockholders' Equity47Total Liabilities & Equities87a. What is the estimated profit of the business for 2021?b. Compute the following profitability ratiosand explain to Jaffe and Jordan whether the business looks profitable relative to the performance of the industry. i. Profit margin ii. Return on assets iii. Return on equity iv. calculate and explain operating cash flowThe industry ratios are as follows:Industry ratios Profit margin32.80%Return on assets34.00%Return on equity42.50%c.

If net income is projected to increase by 20% per year, what will be the profit margin in 2022?e. What will be the estimated earnings per share (EPS) in 2022 if 1,000,000 shares are issued?Note: Make sure to answer all the questions and attached textbook for reference and also attached question in word format.
