General guidance for Module #3 essay
The following will be considered in the evaluation of your essay:
(1) A clear statement of the issue and a review of the business and/or regulatory facts that give rise to the issue (including, for example, descriptions of industry features such as market concentration, product differentiation, etc.)
(2) A proper description of the business/economics framework(s) used
(3) Discussions of how regulations (if part of or proximate to the analysis of your issue) impact the economic incentives of various players in the industry – firms, consumers, regulators, related industries, etc. and how the laws impacted industry outcomes, or if the regulations had any unintended consequences
(4) Cost-benefit analyses (where called for) and discussions of innovation
(5) Inclusion of references to sources of information (footnotes and reference lists will not count toward the “1000 to 1100” word limit)

Please download the attached Excel file, complete it according to the instructions, rename it using your last_name and HWCh4 (example: MaskaraHWCh4.xls) and then resubmit it as your homework solution.
Questions 1 through 4 require you to type in the Excel built-in formulas to calculate the answer for each problem. Examples of the Excel formulas are included in the PDF of the video lectures for TVM-Future Value and TVM-Present Value. The Excel formulas must be entered into the Excel cells highlighted in light blue. The formula must reference a cell. You cannot hardcode numbers. If you do not understand what hardcode means, watch the recording of the zoom lecture from this week before doing this assignment.
Question 5 is primarily an Excel functionality exercise. Complete the missing items in the table that are highlighted in light blue. The purpose of this exercise is to illustrate how to use the Excel built-in TVM functions and also how to calculate the same results using the equivalent algebraic formula. The exercise can be completed in a few seconds (Yes, seconds, not minutes) by appropriately copying the formulas from the portions of the table already filled in. If you are not familiar with Excel try to learn how to copy/paste formulas from cells and what ‘absolute cell reference’ and ‘relative cell reference’ mean.
