Project the incremental, annual, and cumulative cash benefits and outflows associated with the proposed expansion for Nordstrom into China for the next seven to 10 years using a spreadsheet or other relevant presentation vehicle to support your narrative. Be sure to justify your assumptions and methodology based on sound microeconomic and financial principles. For example, what assumptions have you made about demand, price, volume, capital purchase costs, incremental hiring, and so on? 2. Develop a consolidated financial projection of revenue, pretax income, and cash flow for the overall business, over that same number of years, both with and without the proposed investment. Use a spreadsheet or other relevant presentation vehicle to support your narrative, being sure to describe any relevant assumptions. V. Financing: In this section, compare the proposed loan to alternative financing methods. Specifically: A. Weigh the pros and cons of raising money using internal financing mechanisms versus seeking funding through global capital markets via loans, commercial paper, bonds, or equity financing. Which might be viable alternatives should the loan not be approved? Support your answer with appropriate research and evidence. B. Assess the viability of a business combination as a mechanism for expanding into the new market. Is this a reasonable option for the company? Why or why not? Support your answer with appropriate research and evidence. VI. Track Record: Use this section to persuade the lender that you are credit-worthy. You must: A. Convincingly argue that your organization is on solid financial footing, and thus at a low risk for default, supporting your argument with appropriate financial statements, ratios, and other indicators of financial performance and health. B. Convincingly argue for your organization’s trustworthiness, providing credible evidence of legal and ethical financial behavior. For example, this might include recent audit results; credit history; absence of significant lawsuits, recalls, or regulatory judgments; or other evidence designed to show that the company holds itself to the highest legal and ethical standards.

History is often a wonderful teacher, and it can offer great insights about how to treat research subjects in an ethical manner. The Johnson textbook and assigned article for this week introduced you to famous (or infamous) examples of extreme ethical violations in research studies. Of particular note are the Tuskegee and Milgram studies. These studies exposed their subjects to serious physical and/or emotional harm, all in the name of research. These examples still serve as cautionary tales to help guide your behavior as you work with subjects in research studies.For this Discussion, review the Milgram and Tuskegee cases presented in the Johnson text and Cave and Holm article. Select one of these research studies, and consider the ethical violations that occurred in that study.Post a description of the ethical violations you observed in either the Tuskegee or Milgram research study. Explain how your chosen study violated the ethical principles of good research as identified in the Johnson text.ReadingsJohnson, G. (2014). Research methods for public administrators (3rd ed.).
