Develop a recommendation for which program the capital budgeting committee should take into consideration.

For this assignment, you will be provided with a spreadsheet containing projected numbers for two different patient services programs. You will need to download the Program Projections [XLSX] spreadsheet and use it to conduct your analysis.

Instructions

You are a member of the financial services department at Benson Regional Medical Center. The chief financial officer and chair of the capital budgeting committee, Dana Foster, has requested that you perform some capital analysis of two proposed patient service programs.You have been provided with a spreadsheet that covers much of the projected financials for each of the proposed programs. Your task is to perform an analysis of that information and provide your recommendation to the capital budgeting committee as to which program they should pursue.You have been asked to create a presentation to present your findings to the capital budgeting committee.Using the provided spreadsheet, complete a capital budgeting analysis on the information provided in the spreadsheet. Specifically, you will need to identify a net present value (NPV), internal rate of return (IRR), and a discounted payback period for proposed Program #1 and Program #2. You will present your finding in a presentation.

  • Design a PowerPoint presentation for the capital budgeting committee that includes all of the following:
    • Create a brief 1–2 slide description of the proposed programs.
    • Develop a comparison between the cash flow projects of each program from Year 0 to Year 5. Highlight the differences.
    • Compare the results and interpretation of the discounted payback period between both programs.
    • Compare net present value (NPV) for each program.
    • Compare the Internal rate of return (IRR) for each program.
    • Develop a recommendation for which program the capital budgeting committee should take into consideration. Include supporting rationale.

Formatting Requirements

The presentation should 8–10 slides in length and include speaker notes with each slide.

The Payback Period in Microsoft Excel video walks you through computing a payback period in Microsoft Excel for a proposed capital investment.The Solution 6: Choose a Project Based on NPV, IRR, and Payback Period video walks you through choosing a project based on NPV, IRR, and payback perio

What three factors do you believe influence cash flow projections?

Relevant cash flows are inflow and outflow of cash, the inclusion or exclusion of which from investment appraisal can affect the overall investment decision. (1) It isn’t easy to forecast cashflow as it requires looking several years into the future. What three factors do you believe influence cash flow projections? In your response, justify your position through the use of examples, two peer-reviewed sources, and the like. Because these projections are important, identify two ways you can maximize the accuracy of the forecast.

Discuss the ethical issues that may arise as you conduct your research study. How will you address those issues?

Scenario
You are a first-year graduate student. You are taking a graduate course on research and writing. In this assignment, your professor has asked you to evaluate the research and data in two studies related to a research question you are interested in.

Instructions
In a paper for your professor, do the following:

  • Find two scholarly research articles in the Rasmussen library (see uploaded) related to a research question you are interested in. Indicate the research question. Be sure to provide APA citations and provide the library permalinks for the two articles.
  • Evaluate how data was used in these studies:
  • Is the data credible and reliable? Support your answer.
  • Is the data well documented in the paper? Support your answer.
  • Evaluate the data analysis and interpretation. Does the data support the hypothesis and help answer the research question? Support your answer.
  • Discuss the ethical issues that may arise as you conduct your research study. How will you address those issues?
  • Resources
