Management
personal ideology.
This chapter is perhaps the heart of our study of Ethical Decision Making in Business Management.At least it is to me.My preference is to study our narrow interpretation of “Business Ethics” by understanding the classics of ethical thought.Unfortunately, this book doesn’t go that route.No problem.
Let’s try this approach…Read up on Utilitarianism on page 68: “Greatest Good for the Greatest Number.”Sounds enlightened, doesn’t it?Now, please take a look at:
(Hold on.Parental Advisory time: the short story I am about to ask you to read is deeply unsettling in itself.Additionally, the story contains some superfluous references to nakedness, drug use, and the gratuitous addition of the word “copulation”.{It was written in the 70s, after all.}If this offends you, or you believe that you might be offended by it, please DO NOT read the following…)
Publicly traded banks.
For this assignment, you will write a minimum three-page paper (not including APA title or references pages). In this paper, please address the following questions:
What are the operational risk exposures that banks encounter?
What are specific system and technology risks that banks face?
Project plan, and risk management plan.
In outcomes one, two, and three you created a marketing plan, project plan, and risk management plan for a hypothetical project. In outcome five, you will compare that project with an alternative and mutually exclusive project (see attached for additional information) and identify which project should be funded by comparing net present values (NPVs).
In order to do this, you will need to provide an estimate of the net income generated by your hypothetical project. It is quite acceptable to use a rough estimate for net income. You will be graded on your ability to determine NPV from a given income stream and use that to guide your decision between two mutually exclusive projects. You will not be graded on creating the estimated net income of your project.
The easiest way to calculate NPV is through excel. Once you have calculated the NPV of both projects, you will provide a brief narrative that states which project provides the most value for the firm and explain how that can be shown through the NPV calculations.
