 Go online and search for information about companies that have been harmed or bankrupted by a disaster. Choose one such company and create a briefcase study about it. Successful narratives will focus on the manner in which the organization was impacted, including financial losses, losses of sales, or the need for layoffs. Your assignment should be 3 paragraphs in length 

Prepare an 8 page APA style paper using the resources you have read in this course and at least 3 additional peer reviewed resources. Follow the writing requirements for this course. Include an introduction and conclusion in the paper. This paper should address the following questions:

(1) Does Blockchain technology have the potential to cause a shift in financial business practices that many experts are predicting? Explain why or why not. Support your answer with research.

(2) Is there evidence to suggest that Blockchain technology will change the way finance is applied and practiced? If there is, discuss that evidence. If there is not, what issues exist that impede its adoption?

(3) Which functions of financial management could be most impacted by Blockchain technology? How might the financial functions change? Support your answer with research.

Course writing requirements:

References must be cited within your paper in APA format. Your reference page and in-text citations must match 100%. Papers without in-text citations will earn failing grades.

Always include a cover page and reference page with all submissions (even initial discussion posts)

Provide the exact web link on the reference page citations for all online sources – do not provide just the home page, but the exact link – I check all sources

No abbreviations, no contractions – write formally

Write in the third person formal voice (no first or second person pronouns)

Write more than the minimum requirement of the word count assigned

As always, the word count is only for the body of the paper – the cover page, reference page, and / or Appendix (if included) do not count towards the word count for the paper

Indent the first line of each new paragraph five spaces

Refer to the example APA paper in the getting started folder under the content tab if you need an example. Also, a Power Point is provided under the information tab that addresses APA format.

Use double-spacing / zero point line spacing, a running header, page numbers, and left justify the margins.

You are the new Compliance and Accountability Manager for the mid-size company. During the first two weeks on the job, you have conducted several inspections on the alarm, intrusion, and video technology systems. The findings from your investigations provided overwhelming evidence that these systems are either not operating efficiently, or they are not in compliance with governmental requirements. For this assignment, write a two-page double space memo, the company administrator addressing the following:

1. The significance of equipment and system overhaul
2. Application and the importance of an effective alarm system and its components
3. Getting the systems certified
4. An efficient video system
5. The lenses and illumination
6. Cameras
7. Recorders
8. monitors

Ideas from the required reading assignment, as well as a biblical integration, must all be integrated into the memo. This memo should be error-free, citations should be presented to support your work, each section must have a sub-header, and your plagiarism score should not be more than 30 percent.

To begin, use Python and SQLAlchemy to do basic climate analysis and data exploration of your climate database. All of the following analysis should be completed using SQLAlchemy ORM queries, Pandas, and Matplotlib.

• Use the provided starter notebook and hawaii.sqlite files to complete your climate analysis and data exploration.
• Choose a start date and end date for your trip. Make sure that your vacation range is approximately 3-15 days total.
• Use SQLAlchemy create_engine to connect to your sqlite database.
• Use SQLAlchemy automap_base() to reflect your tables into classes and save a reference to those classes called Station and Measurement.

Precipitation Analysis

• Design a query to retrieve the last 12 months of precipitation data.
• Select only the date and prcp values.
• Load the query results into a Pandas DataFrame and set the index to the date column.
• Sort the DataFrame values by date.
• Plot the results using the DataFrame plot method.
• Use Pandas to print the summary statistics for the precipitation data.

Station Analysis

• Design a query to calculate the total number of stations.
• Design a query to find the most active stations.
  • List the stations and observation counts in descending order.
  • Which station has the highest number of observations?
  • Hint: You will need to use a function such as func.min, func.max, func.avg, and func.count in your queries.
• Design a query to retrieve the last 12 months of temperature observation data (TOBS).
  • Filter by the station with the highest number of observations.
  • Plot the results as a histogram with bins=12.

• Using Matplotlib, generate a box and whisker plot of the final tumor volume for all four treatment regimens and highlight any potential outliers in the plot by changing their color and style.
  Hint: All four box plots should be within the same figure. Use this Matplotlib documentation page for help with changing the style of the outliers.
• Select a mouse that was treated with Capomulin and generate a line plot of time point versus tumor volume for that mouse.
• Generate a scatter plot of mouse weight versus average tumor volume for the Capomulin treatment regimen.
• Calculate the correlation coefficient and linear regression model between mouse weight and average tumor volume for the Capomulin treatment. Plot the linear regression model on top of the previous scatter plot.
• Look across all previously generated figures and tables and write at least three observations or inferences that can be made from the data. Include these observations at the top of notebook.

Here are some final considerations:

• You must use proper labeling of your plots, to include properties such as: plot titles, axis labels, legend labels, x-axis and y-axis limits, etc.
• See the starter workbook for help on what modules to import and expected format of the notebook.

This week’s discussion centers around the concept of Blockchain.  There is still much confusion regarding what Blockchain is and what it is not.  Please discuss your explanation of Blockchain to include why it has been gaining so much popularity.

Please make your initial post and two response posts substantive. A substantive post will do at least TWO of the following:

Ask an interesting, thoughtful question pertaining to the topic

Answer a question (in detail) posted by another student or the instructor

Provide extensive additional information on the topic

Explain, define, or analyze the topic in detail

Share an applicable personal experience

Provide an outside source (for example, an article from the UC Library) that applies to the topic, along with additional information about the topic or the source (please cite properly in APA)

Make an argument concerning the topic.

At least one scholarly source should be used in the initial discussion thread. Be sure to use information from your readings and other sources from the UC Library. Use proper citations and references in your post.

 Case study: International Foods Case Study

 Read the Innovation at International Foods Case Study on pages 234-238 in the textbook. Answer the Discussion Questions at the end of the Case Study. Your responses must be complete, detailed, and in APA format. See the sample attachment for the expected format and length.

Cost benefit analysis hypothetical situation.  Select an access control based on a hypothetical situation and justify the cost based on the risk .  Some example situations could be implementing multi-factor authentication for an email system or a badge reader for a data center (feel free to get creative).  APA formatting is expected for any references.  Initial posts due by Thursday end of day and two peer responses due by the end of the unit.  

In the last week of class, we are going to complete a reflection activity. This discussion topic is to be reflective and will be using your own words and not a compilation of direct citations from other papers or sources. You can use citations in your posts, but this discussion exercise should be about what you have learned through your viewpoint and not a re-hash of any particular article, topic, or the book. Items to include in the initial thread:

• “Interesting Assignments” – What were some of the more interesting assignments to you?
• “Interesting Readings” – What reading or readings did you find the most interesting and why?
• “Interesting Readings”“Perspective” – How has this course changed your perspective?
• “Course Feedback” – What topics or activities would you add to the course, or should we focus on some areas more than   others?
