Describe whether you met or did not meet the goals/objectives in your agency learning agreement and include the results from your evaluation.

/in /by

Prior to your field education experience, you completed an agency learning agreement that outlined potential goals and objectives related to social work practice skills that you sought to acquire during this course.

Like a contract, your agency learning agreement also provided your field instructor a set of criteria that would measure your social work practice skills. For this course, you will undergo a formal evaluation of your social work practice skills.

As you engage in future field education experiences, you will be able to refine and hone the development of those skills.

For this Assignment, review your agency learning agreement and the results of your midterm evaluation. Consider how your field education experience fulfilled the goals and objectives in your agency learning agreement. Reflect on what you would like to gain in future field education experiences.

Note: You should receive your midterm evaluation from your field instructor.

The Assignment (4–5 pages):

  • Describe whether you met or did not meet the goals/objectives in your agency learning agreement and include the results from your evaluation.
  • Compare your learning agreement and your evaluation to critically consider how the two are compatible and how you may approach completing the learning agreement differently next term.
  • Describe the social work practice skills you developed.
  • Describe potential areas where you might need improvement in relation to social work practice skills, ethics, or professionalism.
  • Explain how your next field education experience might address those areas.
  • Explain how participation in this course might inform your future field courses, what will you do the same, what will you do differently.
  • Be sure to submit the results of your evaluation to this assignment.

Discuss the reasons why nondomestic customers might not be willing to buy products and services from a firm selling in a foreign market and the reasons why nondomestic customers may not be able to buy a firm’s products and services even if they are willing. Include a brief description of how your firm (that you selected previously) would approach selling a product or service in a foreign market.
PART 2.

Describe the “rules” for bidding firm managers that were discussed in the text. How do these rules differ from the “rules” for target firm managers? Include a brief explanation of each of the rules in your answer.
PART 3.

Write a 3 to 5 page paper (750 to 1200 words, not including the cover page and reference page) in APA format in response to the prompts below. Please click here to view the criteria by which you will be assessed for the achievement of the CLO for this unit.

Please use the APA Sample provided in Unit 1 to complete your assignment. In this assignment, you will be assessed on the Institutional Learning Outcome of Quantitative Reasoning. Visit the LIRN to find journal articles that support your positions and cite them using appropriate APA format.

For this case study, use the company you previously selected. Please respond to the following questions:

a.       Describe the conditions, if any, where your business (the one you selected in Unit 1) can expect to earn an economic profit from acquiring a new, strategically related, firm after fending off four other bidders. [Chapter 10 Problem Set Question #1 on page 303].

b.      Your firm is considering the purchase of a smaller firm because it believes that it can manage the assets of that firm more efficiently. The smaller firm has free cash flow. Some researchers have argued that the existence of free cash flow can lead managers in a firm to make inappropriate acquisition decisions. To avoid these problems, these authors have argued that firms should increase their debt-to-equity ratio and “soak up” free cash flow through interest and principal payments. Is free cash flow a significant problem for many firms?

c.       Your firm has decided to begin selling its products in Ghana. Unfortunately, there is not a highly developed trading market for currency in Ghana. However, Ghana does have significant exports of cocoa. Describe a process by which you would be able to sell your machines in Ghana and still translate your earnings into a tradable currency (e.g., dollars or euros).

Chapters 26 through 29 presented four mini-case studies on ERM and risk. Each one presented a slightly different risk scenario. Starting with chapter 29, assume that you have been asked to advise the Akawini management team on how they should promote and monitor the transformation of risk management in their business. What performance measures would you recommend that use so that they can monitor progress and performance? Choose one other of the chapters from this week and recommend ERM measures that organization should implement as well to monitor risks outlined in that chapter.
