Hi, can someone answer these questions for me please? Please let it be in your own words and not copied from anyother websites. Thanks.

 

1-What’s the different between debt financing and equity financing?  The following link shows the current US surplus / deficit (i.e. debt financing), how long do you think the government can continue to spend like this?  What can be done to reverse this situation?

 

2-The largest uninterrupted stretch of deficits came between 1970 and 1997. It’s hard to imagine that the United States will post a surplus anytime soon – will we give the 28 year stretch between 1970 and 1997 a run for its money?

 

Any idea who is purchasing all this debt?

 

3-What is meant by foreign exchange risk? What specific problems does foreign exchange present in an organization? How could an organization needing Euros in six months protect itself from currency fluctuations?

 

4-There are many variables that may cause problems with foreign exchange. There’s a political risk potential in some countries that may have certain political instabilities.

 

How / why might politics impact a countries currency

 

5-The seller (writer) has the obligation to either buy or sell stock (depending on what type of option he or she sold — either a call option or a put option) to the buyer at a specified price by a specified date.

You need to research your topic and prepare an engaging PowerPoint that would be used as a visual aid in for your presentation.

Topic Ideas

The course textbook will be a great resource when looking for a topic that relates to some aspect of professional communication. Some examples of topics include (but are not limited to):

  • Effective      Communication Within Teams

o Speaker notes are NOT a copy of the information on your slide. Instead, speaker notes expand upon and/or offer further clarification regarding points on each slide.

o To add speaker notes, go to the Notes pane under the slide where you will see, “Click to add notes”. For more help, view the information at: https://support.office.com/en-us/article/add-speaker-notes-to-your-slides-26985155-35f5-45ba-812b-e1bd3c48928e

o All images/graphics used must be relevant, professional looking, and used with the main purpose of helping an audience better grasp a complex concept and/or remember information presented.

Note that this is not the same      as the doi #. The URL must take your reader directly to the full text article within Liberty’s online library journal database. If you’re      unsure about the specific URL/link, you can copy the entire web      address from the top of the browser’s address bar once you are      viewing the full text article within Liberty’s      online library journal database.

IV. Sources

  • A      minimum of five credible sources      must be used within your presentation. Required, credible sources include:
