Modernization vs Traditional Aboriginal economies

/0 Comments/in /by

Modernization vs Traditional Aboriginal economies

Modernization vs. Aboriginal Traditional Economies Rudi Volti’s book offers 3 chapters which address technological change, work, and the economy. For the most part he considers work-related technological change in societies which have already experienced modernization. For example, when he discusses the technological threat to jobs in historical perspective, he only goes back as far as the Industrial Revolution. Or when he discusses how technology creates jobs, he does so in the context of modern industrial and post-industrial economies. But what about the relationship between technological change (or modernization, more broadly) and the traditional economies of Indigenous peoples? For Written Assignment Option #2 you are required to write a new section for Volti’s chapter 10 (“Technology and Jobs: More of One and Less of the Other?”) in which you discuss the impact of modernization on the traditional economies of Canada’s isolated Northern Aboriginal communities. For this part of your paper you should use the article immediately below. You might want to check-out the numerous links which appear at the end of the article. The Canadian Encyclopedia. 2015 (last updated). Indigenous People: Economic Conditions. http://www.thecanadianencyclopedia.ca/en/article/aboriginal-people-economic-conditions/ You should include a brief description (no more than 200-250 words) of the current economic status of Canada’s Indigenous peoples in terms of employment/unemployment, income, educational attainment, and community well-being. You will find fairly recent core indicators in the following article: The National Aboriginal Economic Development Board. 2015. The Aboriginal Economic Progress Report 2015.https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/2104954-naedb-progress-report-june-2015.html Assignment Format Requirements: Your paper must be 3-4 pages in length (not including your title page and References page), use 12pt Times New Roman font, double-spacing, and 1” margins. You must provide a title page and a References page. Your paper is worth a maximum of 10% of your final course grade. The deadline for Written Assignment Option #2 is Friday November 29, 11:59 p.m. ET. You must submit your paper using the Dropbox tool on our course site (see the yellow navigator bar at the top of the page).

Corporate Financial Management Financial Ratios of a Firm

Assume that you are working in the corporate financial advisory services department of a large investment bank and your director (who has read extensively about shareholder value analysis) has asked you to prepare a shareholder value analysis and a short-term valuation report on your chosen company using the following basis for your valuation:

• Planning period is to be set at five years

• A residual value based on constant cash flows from year five onwards (infinite life) will be estimated at the end of this five-year period

• Beta factor to be obtained using current information held on Bloomberg, DataStream or other sources 11/29/2019 Writers Hub – Freelance Writing https://www.writershub.org/writer/orders/505373#instructions 5/7

• FTSE All-share return to be taken as 12%

• Risk free rate to be taken as 5%

• The target capital structure to be set based on the company last financial year (preferably 2018)

• The gross cost of debt over the financing period is to be estimated at 8% per annum

• As for the other key value drivers (forecast sales growth rate, operating margins, tax rate, incremental working capital requirements and incremental fixed asset investment) you are required to decide these yourselves. The director has advised you to review the latest annual report and accounts of your chosen company and use the data therein and other financial journalistic analysis and intelligence that you consider appropriate to help you decide upon the growth levels of your chosen drivers.

Required:

1. Using the information on certain key drivers already given above together with the other key driver figures decided upon by yourselves, prepare a spreadsheet using the shareholder value analysis model to determine a purchase price for your chosen company. A short report explaining how the valuation method works and the purpose of each stage in the spreadsheet calculations should support the model. (Marks allocated: 70% – 700 words excluding appendices)

2. Review the certain value driver’s assumptions given above and growth levels suggested by you for other drivers and write a brief report justifying or criticising the growth levels of the chosen drivers.
