Short Story #1 Guidelines
Please write a short story, by choosing from one of these prompts:
A – Your MC is at a gathering (small or large, you choose the specifics) when s/he discovers something unsettling about one of the guests. Does the MC confront the guest? Does the gathering go on?
B – Your MC hears a knock on the door. Who’s knocking? How will your MC solve the problem posed by the person on the other side? Please, no life-and-death circumstances.
C- A storyline of your own choosing.
Your story should:
1. Include a beginning, middle, and end.
2. Use selective concrete details to describe your characters, their setting, and to make the reader
know what’s important.
3. Have your MC undergo a change from the beginning of the story, to the end. As a reader, we

moment, not by what’s explained to us. How is life never the same again for your MC?

Writing Assignment for Unit One
• Include your name, student number, course number, course title and unit number with your writing assignment.
• Begin each writing assignment by identifying the question number you are answering followed by the actual question itself (in bold type).
• Use a standard essay format for responses to all questions (i.e., an introduction, middle paragraphs and conclusion).
• Responses must be typed double-spaced, using a standard font (i.e. Times New Roman) and 12 point type size.
Word count is NOT one of the criteria that is used in assigning points to writing assignments. However, students who are successful in earning the maximum number of points tend to submit writing assignments that fall in the following ranges:
Undergraduate courses: 350 – 500 words or 1 – 2 pages. Graduate courses: 500 – 750 words or 2 – 3 pages. Doctoral courses: 750 – 1000 words or 4 – 5 pages.

Research question: Please think over another formulation of the research question. The word death is there repeated twice, but replacing it with, for example, “end of life,” does not sound so good.

Introduction: Please develop the introduction into a more complex picture/appearance, both the introduction and the whole essay! At the same time, in this section, you should really introduce the topic (please see the comment) – please correct it!
I also attached Abstract, which originally belonged to this essay, but is not included because it is no longer a requirement of the essay. Maybe somehow you can use it to correct the introduction.

In my work is often said: “In this essay, it is argued…” etc. This formulation seems easy. Please, try to change the sentence or sentences according to the context, so that it is not said so directly.

According to the comment and according to me as well, the essay needs to be better organized by individual themes (love, marriage, nature, figures of speech). At the beginning of each body paragraph, there should be a broad sentence introducing the whole paragraph. It should indicate what will be said. But it must be written in a professional form. And also, there must be conclusion at the end of each paragraph. Each paragraph should begin and end with the point I have made, and I must always return to the research question with each paragraph and with each paragraph answer it again and again! This is the most important thing!

Quotes!!!!! The writer forgot to include quotes! This is one of the most important! When referring to specific poems, please include a quote from the poem! And in front of the quote and behind the quote, there must be a sentence, directly referring to the quote! At the same time, please, include other direct quotes in the essay that can be from different sources that someone directly said, for example from a book.

One whole topic I’m referring to in the essay is Figures of speech. I would need to develop this topic much more and write about it more. It is very important! At the beginning of the paragraph, I should list them all and then always start with what figure of speech I am describing and then talk about the example from their poems + include quotes.

Assessment question :- “Making specific reference to APES110, demonstrate how this Code may contribute towards the development of greater trust of the public in the accounting profession.”

Make sure to includes following 3 points with other explanation.
1. Recognise, analyse and discuss the key elements of an ethical issue.
2. Demonstrate the application of the Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants to a range of ethical issues and problems in accounting and business.
3. Recognize the significance of cultural issues in the resolution of ethical issues.

I have attached APES 110, Code of Ethics. Specific reference to code is must.

• The assignment must be in MS Word format, 1.5 spacing, 11-pt Calibri (Body) font and 2 cm margins on all four sides of your page with appropriate section headings.
• Reference sources must be cited in the text of the report, and listed appropriately at the end in a reference list using APA 6th edition

• You have $5,000 in a term deposit account that provides 2.8% p.a. interest compounded semi-annually. To what amount will your investment grow after 4 years? [2 marks]
• How many years will it take an investment of $10,000 to grow to $30,500 if the investment pays 2.8% p.a. compounded every two months? [2 marks]
• A zero-coupon bond matures in 30 years. The interest is compounded semi-annually and the face value of the bond is $1,000. The market interest rate for similar bonds is 3.99%. What is the value of this bond? How many of these bonds sold will raise $1m?  [2.5 marks]
• For a rapidly growing British company, the growth rate forecast suggests an expected 27% per annum for the next two years and 15% for the subsequent year (i.e. 3 years from now). At the end of 3 years, the growth rate settles to an expected 8% per annum and remain so for the near future. The company expects to pay a dividend of £220 per share next year. Assume that the investors’ required rate of return for the company’s shares is 17%. Determine the value of this company’s share. Is the share a desirable purchase if its market price is £3,500 per share? [£ = Pound Sterling] [3.5 marks]

 

Hints:

All these math problems involve very few steps and can be solved quite quickly.

For (a), please note week 1 resources. Please also note what information (i.e., PV, FV, i, m, & n) are given and which information the question asks to determine. Please then use the relevant formula – a straightforward and quick calculation.

For (b), please note week 2 resources – a straightforward calculation.

For (c), please determine the price of the bond using the formula – this is what is referred to as the value of the bond. Then determine the number of bonds. Please note the week 4 slides.

For (d), please note the concepts introduced in week 5 slides and the relevant section of the book. Notably, although we are using Deutsche mark (DM) as the currency, the approach introduced for similar math in lecture slides and tutorials and entailing Dollar ($) applies here also. The answer should be indicated in the currency the question refers to. By the way, please also note the dividend information to understand whether D₀ is given or D₁ is given. Please also note when the constant growth starts and proceed with the calculation accordingly. Once the value has been determined, compare it with the market price to decide whether it is a desirable purchase.
