The goal of the firm is to create value for the firms owners (shareholders), meaning to maximize shareholder wealth by maximizing the price of the existing common stock. Good financial decisions will increase stock price, and poor financial decisions will lead to a decline in stock price.

To make good financial decisions and better manage change in organizations, leaders need to understand core concepts of finance including the big five principles, income statements, balance sheets, and key financial ratios. Having a grasp of these tools can help leaders in many types of organizations to make better decisions and to take a leading role in supporting organizational goals.

In this paper you will apply key finance concepts to a recent news story of your choosing. Start by finding a recent news story from quality sources (CNBC, the WSJ, Yahoo finance, Regional Business News, Thompson Reuters Westlaw, scholarly articles, your textbook, etc). Your paper needs to be about a publicly traded company so that you can readily find their financials on Yahoo finance. You will know it is publicly traded (a corporation) if when you put the company name in the search bar in Yahoo finance you can find their ticker symbol (for example NFLX for Netflix).

Include in your paper the following sections:

1. Brief introduction to the paper
2. Brief summary of the article you discovered
3. How the article relates to at least one of the big five principles cash flow is what matters, money has time value, risk requires reward, market prices are generally right, and conflicts of interests cause agency problems

   1. Income statement (see the video in the Week 1 tab)
