This item of assessment is Compulsory.
You are a Graduate Trainee Analyst at a renowned financial institution. After six (6) months of joining the company, you are asked by your superior to produce a
comprehensive business analysis and valuation on a company which has had a major restructuring or has made a major impact on the the area of company analysis
and valuation recently. You are to choose a case from 12 cases as listed in the 'Groups' of MyWeb. You are strongly advised to use the Financial Statement Analysis
Package (FSAP) Version 7.0 Excel template in performing your analysis and valuation.
This assignment is purposedly designed to access your level of critical thinking and competency of analysis and valuation. The intended audiences for your report

Hints:
1. Limit the executive summary to one page, in point form of between 8 and 10 points only. It summarizes the whole report for a busy reader who only wants to
know the salient points of your report.
2. Be specific on the purpose of your report. Provide some objectives that you think are very relevant and important. A good report will also include scope and
limitations.
3. On the company’s description, be resourceful by including major shareholder changes, director changes, or corporate moves that are pertinent to the company.

8. Summarize your analyses in the conclusions and provide your recommendations.
9. Include important articles or writeup that you quote in the appendices. If you have many of them, prepare a table of appendices.
BBA Test (Due Date: TBA)
This item of assessment is Compulsory.
If you are not enrolled in the BBA(Fin), or you are a BBA(Fin) student who has previously taken the test, then you will receive a “GE” (Good Excuse) grade for this component and therefore there
will be no impact on your final grade.
This item of assessment is therefore only compulsory for BBA(Fin) students who have not previously taken the test and is an important part of the School’s assurance of learning programme.
Your final grade will only be affected if you have not taken the test as part of this paper, as an IC grade is awarded to anyone that has not completed a compulsory piece of assessment.
This test is made up of two components and has been designed to determine your general understanding of financial analysis as well as test you in more detail in your major subject area whether
it be in Accounting, Economics or Finance. The test will be made up of approximately 90 multiplechoice questions. The first part of the test will include general questions in accounting,
economics and finance, together with general business knowledge and sustainability questions. This part of the test will be followed by more detailed questions in your major.
It is not necessary to study for this test and you will have two hours to complete it under normal exam conditions. You will be notified by email about the available times to take the test which will
be during the fourth and tenth week of the semester. You must book a time to take the test via MyWeb and you will receive your grade for the test when you have completed it. BBA
Portfolio (Due Date: Friday, 17 October 2014)
This item of assessment is Compulsory.
If you are not enrolled in the BBA(Fin), or you are a BBA(Fin) student who has previously completed the portfolio, then you will receive a “GE” (Good Excuse) grade for this component and
therefore there will be no impact on your final grade.
This item of assessment is therefore only compulsory for BBA(Fin) students who have not previously completed a portfolio. Your final grade will only be affected if you have not completed the
portfolio as part of this paper, as an IC grade is awarded to anyone that has not completed a compulsory piece of assessment.
To complete this item of assessment you will need to submit examples of assessment that you have submitted for papers taken for your BBA(Fin) degree. No new assessment is required, and
the assessments you submit that have been already graded will not be regraded, therefore your existing grades will not be affected. Completing your Portfolio of Work should take you no more
than one hour.
For further information on how to complete your portfolio and what to include in the Portfolio go to the My Portfolio icon on MyWeb. It can be completed at any time during the semester of
enrolment.
Examination ( Date: Unavailable )
No extra Information
Assessment Policy
All tutorial completions, quizzes, and the semester project report must be the work of each student. Group work must be the work of each group. Instances of
academic dishonesty will be dealt with according to University Policy.
Late submission of any assessments will not be accepted and will not be marked unless there are grounds for special consideration which normally means health or
bereavement.
The application for such consideration can be found under Files. Further information is available at http//www.waikato.ac.nz/sasd/examinations/exams3.shtml
Group Policy: A group may comprise a minimum of 2 members and a maximum of 3 members. Students who wish to complete the group assignment by themselves can
do so, if they email the instructor before the end of the second week (before 5.00pm on July 25). Otherwise students are randomly assigned into groups of 3 students.
If conflicts arise within a group, students can write a memo to the instructor indicating why they cannot continue in the group and, if the instructor concurs, the
student may be allowed to leave the group and complete the assignments individually, carrying the group marks for completed assignments. He or she will not be
allowed to join another group. A group that chooses to continue with 2 members cannot add another person to the group. Invariably, people leaving groups are fedup
with the lack of effort by others in the group: if you think it is unfair to have 2 members in a group, then contribute to the group, as you will not receive any
dispensation whatsoever for having only 2 members. It is recommended that groups get everyone to contribute to each assignment to prevent conflict among members
as results are awarded later in the semester.
