Part Il of the final quiz is a peer-to-peer assessment. Once you have submitted your own work, you will be asked to review three of your peers' answers to the same questions. Each of the two question is worth up to four points.

Your answer needs to cover at least four ideas/criteria indicated in the PDF solution in order to obtain the full four points. However, for the first question, there are five possible ideas you can come up with in your answer and for the second question there are seven. So if, for example, you address five of the ideas listed in the solution key, you still get four points.

Partial credit:

You can obtain half a point if you partially address one of the ideas that Prof. Badia lists in the solution.

Please note: The passing threshold is 75%. The solution will only become available to you once you have completed and submitted your own quiz.

Criteria:

For each question, Prof. Badia has provided an example of the type of criteria you should strive to address to receive the corresponding points. To receive a point for each idea, you should not just make assertions, but also arguments that offer supporting evidence. For example, if you state, "Fibertech is very profitable," the statement may be correct, but it's not enough to earn a full point. However, the statement would earn half a point.

For the full point, you should make the statement and explain why: Why is it profitable? What categories on the financial statements allow you to arrive at this conclusion? In other words, you should say something along these lines:

Fibertech is very profitable. The net profit is XYZ. The return on sales is X% (i.e. Net profit / Sales = XYZ/ ABC). The return on equity is XX% (i.e. Net profit / Average owner's equity for the year = XYZ / [(XXX + YYY)/2] = XX%).
