Re: Gemini Expansion
After giving much consideration, time, and analysis to the financial information presented for Gemini Electronics, we would like to propose a comprehensive review of the company’s standing. This review may aid those seeking guidance and clarification to come to a consensus in making a decision to see if Gemini is in good standing to expand to new markets or not at this time. Per our analysis, we target an evaluation of the following categories: liquidity, asset management, debt paying ability, profitability, and finalize with recommendations.
Liquidity

The rapid growth has resulted in a relatively high working revenue. It seems as though the company also has higher costs offers than others in the industry. At this time, Gemini does seem to have a good control over their expenses. Data also reflects they are selling above average with their current total asset turnover ratio. Consequently, they are generating $1 of sales for every dollar that the company has in assets. Therefore, we can conclude that we can expect to see growth in profits for Gemini in the future. According to the exhibits we see some concerns in gross margin and operating profit margin, however, return on assets and equity reflect positive

    “Validity is the extent to which a test measures what we actually wish to measure” (Cooper and Schindler, 2014, p.257). “Reliability has to do with the accuracy and precision of a measurement procedure” (Cooper and Schindler, 2014, p. 257). Validity is more critical to measurement than reliability because without validity, reliability is meaningless. For example, a bathroom scale may give a weight each time a person weighs themselves, which proves the scale is reliable in giving feedback. If the scale displays an incorrect weight each time then it is not a valid weight and a person cannot accurately measure themselves to know if a goal is being met or not. Validity and reliability can also be thought of in terms of a person and their work. A person may show up to work on time and complete all tasks that are required everyday, which proves they are reliable, however if they tasks are not completed correctly then there is no validity to work and it must be redone. Finally, validity…

    Liquidity ratio. The firm’s liquidity shows a downward trend through time. The current ratio is decreasing because the growth in current liabilities outpaces the growth of current assets. The quick ratio is also declining but not as fast as the current ratio. From 1991 to 1992, it only decreased 0.35 units while the current ratio decreased 0.93 units.

Our understanding of Greek society is incomplete if we know nothing of the methods by which the Greeks solved significant problems of the ordinary everyday variety, like finding and distributing drinking water, as well as the architecture of homes, temples, or other significant buildings. Many of the tools, methods, and architectural designs of today originate from ancient Greece. In this you will be able to appreciate Greek engineering through great Greek projects.

    History is marked by specific periods; which illustrates the cultural, economic, religious, and educational setting of the time. One such era is the Middle Ages or Medieval Period. This period that dates from around 850-1400, was defined by the “Italian Renaissance humanist, Francesco Petrarch, who coined the term Middle Ages to describe the period in European history from the end of the Roman Empire until his own time, the 1300s”. There were many changes that occurred during this span in history; such as the development of cities and the marketplace, which allowed some people to obtain financial wealth and move into a new social bracket. This redistribution of the pecking order was a source of distress for some medieval Europeans, therefore, the need to determine a new class structure arose. As a result, medieval intellects classified the different sets of people; “those who pray (monks), those who fight (nobles), and those who work (peasants)”. This new caste system put people’s minds at ease because “they asserted that the three orders had been established by God and that every person had been assigned a fixed place in the social order”. However, the three social categories did not include women of the middle ages, who were important fixtures of the time.…

    In Arthur Miller’s Death of a Salesman, Willy Loman instills his own skewed vision of success into his sons; however, Biff Loman rejects Willy's teachings and looks for success elsewhere, while Happy Loman follows Willy's advice and leads a materialistic and idealistic, yet unsatisfactory, lifestyle. Hard work and success are not intertwined in Willy’s mind; instead, he believes that he can succeed by the merit of his charm alone. This wisdom, when imparted to Biff, leaves him confused with how to integrate his own dreams with what Willy wants of him. In contrast, Happy blindly accepts Willy’s teachings as truth and suffers, like Willy, because he is discontent with the materialistic lifestyle that he has worked to achieve. Ultimately,…
