Exception-Handling-programming-homework-help

  • Exception Handling

    You decide to upload your recent project to a programming community website for feedback, and one thing that community users keep pointing to is the lack of exception handling. Realizing that they are correct, you decide to rectify the situation and improve your programs… or at least one of them. Take one of the programs you designed over the past couple of weeks and enhance the program with exception handling code. Your program should incorporate the TRY and EXCEPT blocks and handle any errors and exceptions that you can find.

    For this project:

    • You will submit your python code in either the original .py file, or copied into a .txt file.
    • A screenshot of your code having been executed and demonstrating your exception handling. How to Take a Screenshot.

    Tips: Exception handling programming takes a bit of forethought. Think about ways that you can make your program malfunction while using it (not by changing the code).

Estimating-Risk-and-Return-measurement-technique-accounting-homework-help

Need serious, but honest help to meet my dead line.  Instruction as following questions using grammatically correct language and appropriate APA citations. All questions need to be answer and with APA citations. All material MUST come from the book only. (The book that used is Finance by Cornett, Adair, & Nofsinger, 2016).  Chapter 9 Characterizing Risk and Return Pages 216- 239 and  Chapter 10 Estimating Risk and Return pages 240-263  Be sure when solving the problems algebraically, be sure to show your computations.  If using Excel spreadsheet, show your input values and formula.  If using financial calculator, show your input values. There are some hints/suggestions for certain questions in this assignment to ensure you have the right answer. 

**Note: In addition to your solution to each computational problem, you must show the supporting work leading to your solute.****

***Questions 4, 6, 7, 10, 11, 12, 13, and 14 entail working quantitative problems demonstrating your understanding of return and risk measurement technique. ****

Question 1:

Proficient-level: “How do Cornett, Adair, and Nofsinger define risk in the M: Finance textbook and how is it measured?” (Cornett, Adair, & Nofsinger, 2016).

Distinguished-level: Describe the risk relationship between stocks, bonds, and T-bills, using the standard deviation of returns as the measure of risk.

Question 2:

Proficient-level: “What is the source of firm-specific risk? What is the source of market risk?” (Cornett, Adair, & Nofsinger, 2016, p. 233).

Distinguished-level: Identify which of the two types of risk can be reduced through diversification.

Question 3:

Proficient-level: “What does the coefficient of variation measure?” (Cornett, Adair, & Nofsinger, 2016, p. 233).

Distinguished-level: Explain why a lower coefficient of variation is better for an investor.

Question 4: HINT- The correct dollar return will fall within the range of $799 and the correct percentage return will fall within the range of 2.50% and 3.99%.  Be sure to SOLVE and SHOW the percentage response out to FOUR DECIMAL PLACE.  (REMINDER:  YOU are also REQUIRED TO IDENTIFY the known variable in order to obtain the correct response to this and all QUANTITATIVE PROBLEMS.)

Proficient-level: “FedEx Corp stock ended the previous year at $103.39 per share. It paid a $0.35 per share dividend last year. It ended last year at $106.69. If you owned 200 shares of FedEx, what was your dollar return and percent return?” (Cornett, Adair, & Nofsinger, 2016, p. 234).

Distinguished-level: Explain why a percentage return can be more useful than a dollar return.

Question 5:

Proficient-level: “Rank the following three stocks by their level of total risk, highest to lowest. Rail Haul has an average return of 12 percent and standard deviation of 25 percent. The average return and standard deviation of Idol Staff are 15 percent and 35 percent; and of Poker-R-Us are 9 percent and 20 percent” (Cornett, Adair, & Nofsinger, 2016, p. 234).

Distinguished-level: Describe the components of the standard deviation formula.

Question 6: HINT- CORRECT COEFFICIENT of Variation for RAIL HAUL is 2.08.  REMINDER:  YOU are also REQUIRED TO IDENTIFY the known variable in order to obtain the correct response to this and all QUANTITATIVE PROBLEMS

Proficient-level: “Rank the following three stocks by their risk return relationship, best to worst. Rail Haul has an average return of 12 percent and standard deviation of 25 percent. The average return and standard deviation of Idol Staff are 15 percent and 35 percent; and of Poker-R-Us are 9 percent and 20 percent” (Cornett, Adair, & Nofsinger, 2016, p. 234). Before solving this problem, calculate the coefficient of variation.

Distinguished-level: Explain how the coefficient of variation acts as a trade-off between risk and return.

Question 7: HINT- CORRECT PORTFOLIO return will fall within the range of NEGATIVE 1.00% and POSITIVE 2.99%. ( REMINDER:  YOU are also REQUIRED TO IDENTIFY the known variable in order to obtain the correct response to this and all QUANTITATIVE PROBLEMS)

Proficient-level: “Year-to-date, Oracle had earned a −1.34 percent return. During the same time period, Valero Energy earned 7.96 percent and McDonald’s earned 0.88 percent. If you have a portfolio made up of 30 percent Oracle, 25 percent Valero Energy, and 45 percent McDonald’s, what is your portfolio return?” (Cornett, Adair, & Nofsinger, 2016, p. 235).

Distinguished-level: Explain the role of weights in determining portfolio return.

Question 12: HINT- CORRECT AVERAGE MARKET RS+ISK PREMIUM ON THE S & P 500 falls within the range of 0.00% and 11.99%. ( REMINDER:  YOU are also REQUIRED TO IDENTIFY the known variable in order to obtain the correct response to this and all QUANTITATIVE PROBLEMS)

Proficient-level: “The average annual return on the Standard and Poor’s 500 Index from 1986 to 1995 was 15.8 percent. The average annual T-bill yield during the same period was 5.6 percent. What was the market risk premium during these 10 years?” (Cornett, Adair, & Nofsinger, 2016, p. 259).

Distinguished-level: Define, in your own words, the term, market risk premium.

Question 13: HINT- CORRECT REQUIRE RETURN FOR HASTINGS FALLS within the range of 6.00% and 9.99%, ( REMINDER:  YOU are also REQUIRED TO IDENTIFY the known variable in order to obtain the correct response to this and all QUANTITATIVE PROBLEMS).

Proficient-level: “Hastings Entertainment has a beta of 0.65. If the market return is expected to be 11 percent and the risk-free rate is 4 percent, what is Hastings’ required return?” (Cornett, Adair, & Nofsinger, 2016, p. 259). Use the capital asset pricing model to calculate Hastings’ required return.

Distinguished-level: Recalculate the required return with a change to beta, and explain the effect of a 1.0 increase in beta on the subsequent amount of change in the required return.

Question 14: HINT – CORRECT PORTFOLIO BETA WILL fall BETWEEN the range of -1.00% and  2.99%. (REMINDER:  YOU are also REQUIRED TO IDENTIFY the known variable in order to obtain the correct response to this and all QUANTITATIVE PROBLEMS).

Proficient-level: Calculate the beta of your portfolio, which comprises the following items: (a) Olympic Steel stock, which has a beta of 2.2 and comprises 40 percent of your portfolio, (b) Rent-A-Center stock, which has a beta of 1.5 and comprises 28 percent of your portfolio, and (c) Lincoln Electric stock, which has a beta of 0.5 and comprises 32 percent of your portfolio (Cornett, Adair, & Nofsinger, 2016).

Distinguished-level: Determine whether the portfolio has less risk, equal risk, or more risk compared to the overall market.

Question 15:

Chapter 10 in the M: Finance textbook by Cornett, Adair, and Nofsinger discusses aspects of both risk and return. Risk and return can be seen as two sides of the same coin. In other words, risk and return are inexorably intertwined. Beta is one measure of market risk. Review Chapter 10, with particular emphasis on the “Market Risk” section of this chapter. Address the following:

-In your own words, what is the meaning of the terms beta and capital asset pricing model?

-Select three stocks from the listing of the Dow Jones Industrial Average Stock Betas from Table 10.2 of the textbook. List these three stocks, along with their corresponding beta. Which one of the three stocks in your list is least risky? Why? Which one of the three stocks in your list is most risky? Why?

-If the beta of a portfolio of stocks was calculated to be 1.0, how should your portfolio react to changes in the overall market?

-If you assembled a mix of stocks for a financial portfolio for your personal use, would you prefer a low beta, a beta of 1.0, or a high beta? Why?

Civil-Litigation-law-homework-help

When a paralegal sends a request for admission to a defendant, they are asking that the second party admit to the truthfulness of some fact or opinion. If the statement is admitted, the statement is no longer in dispute, and by the use of this discovery tool, it simplifies a lawsuit by reducing the number and nature of the points in controversy.

Your supervising attorney has asked that you draft a set of requests for admission on behalf of your client Abel, against his brother Cain in our car accident case. Think about the facts that you would want Cain to admit, to simplify the lawsuit. You should have at least 10 separate requests for admission. A sample has been provided for you below.  Here are some facts about the case:

Your supervising attorney, Jake Smalls, has already served an Answer and Counterclaim on behalf of Abel, based off of a conversation with Abel, who has given him the following information:

  • He got into an accident with his brother, but his brother turned out into the lane in front of him, causing the accident.
  • He believes his brother was intoxicated at the time and was speeding.
  • He knows his brother went to the hospital, but is unsure of the extent of his injuries or medical bills. He is sure, however, that his brother is faking some of his injuries–he saw him moving furniture shortly after the accident. This also leads him to believe he could still perform his job.
  • He is furious with his brother, and wants to sue him for defamation. His brother has been going around town telling “everyone” that he intentionally ran him over because he thought Cain was going to tell Abel’s wife about an affair Abel was engaged in.
  • Abel adamantly denies hitting his brother on purpose, and is furious, as he has never engaged in an affair. Regardless, news of his brother’s statements about him have spread amongst the town, and Abel recently lost an election whereby he was running for the Blackacre School Board. Polling showed he lost the election due to the public’s concern over his moral fitness.

Moral-and-ethical-geology-homework-help

1. Moral and ethical requirements should serve as drivers which encourage a business to invest in orspend money on cybersecurity products, services, and programs.

You have been invited to participate in a “lightening round” panel on the above topic at a conference on Best Practices for IT Security Management. For this activity you must prepare a 3 to 5 paragraph briefing statement which answers the following questions. Use information from the weekly readings and Case Study #1.

  1. What is stakeholder theory? How does it drive requirements to spend money on cybersecurity products & services?
  2. How does social contract theory apply to purchasing requirements for cybersecurity products & services?
  3. Name and briefly describe 3 ethics issues that IT Security managers and staff may encounter when selecting and evaluating cybersecurity products & services. (Use examples to drive home your points.)

Provide in-text citations and references for 3 or more authoritative sources. Put the reference list at the end of your posting.

2. Case Study #1: Why should businesses invest in cybersecurity?

Case Scenario:

A client company has asked your cybersecurity consulting firm to provide it with a 2 to 3 page white paper which discusses the business need for investments in cybersecurity. The purpose of this white paper is to “fill in the gaps” in a business case that was already prepared by the company’s Chief Information Officer. The target audience for your paper is the company’s C-suite executives. These executives will be meeting later this month to discuss budget requests from department heads. The company has requested that your white paper use the same investment categories as are already in use for the CIO’s business case: people, processes, and technologies.  

Research:

1.  Read / Review the Week 1 readings.

2.  Find three or more additional sources which provide information about best practice recommendations for cybersecurity and other reasons why businesses should invest in people, processes, and technologies related to cybersecurity. These additional sources can include analyst reports (e.g. Gartner, Forrester, Price-Waterhouse, Booz-Allen) and/or news stories about recent attacks / threats, data breaches, cybercrime, cyber terrorism, etc.

Write:

Write a two to three page summary of your research. At a minimum, your summary must include the following:

1.  An introduction or overview of cybersecurity which provides definitions and addresses the business need for cybersecurity. This introduction should be suitable for an executive audience.

2.  A separate section which addresses ethical considerations which drive the business need for investments in cybersecurity.

3.  A review of best practices and recommendations which can be added to the existing business case to provide justification for cybersecurity-focused investments in the three investment categories identified by the company: people, processes, and technologies.

Your white paper should use standard terms and definitions for cybersecurity. See Course Content > Cybersecurity Concepts Review for recommended resources.
