Wolfrum Technology (WT) has no debt. Its assets will be worth $444 million in one year if the economy is strong, but only $226 million in one year if the economy is weak.

Assignment: Review Paper # 4
The Review Paper # 4 should cover any issue or topic from the
5th chapter (dealing with revenue & expenditure forecasting,
productivity analysis and the Benefit-cost Concept etc) of your required
text book (Thomas Lynch, Jinping Sun & Robert Smith “Public
Budgeting in America,” 6th Ed. (2017) Melvin & Leigh. ISBN:
978-0-997-30844). You have the flexibility to choose any
topic/topics from the suggested themes in the chapter. Please make sure
the title of your paper reads like a statement. Your writing should
involve critical analysis of the issue you are dealing with. Also make
sure you have an introduction, discussion of the issue (which should
take the substantial part of your writings), and your own concluding
remarks. This Review Paper (RP) needs to be typed and should be (1800-2000 words) long with proper citation (at least three
sources). Please don’t (I repeat don’t) down load stuff from somewhere
or anywhere. It will be considered plagiarism. Keep the Spirit.
SOME GUIDANCE ABOUT HOW TO WRITE A POLICY REVIEW PAPER
While one may have his/her own idea about how to
write a 4-5 pages (1800-2000) long Review Paper (RP), I thought it might
be a good idea to provided some guidelines, as all eight Review Paper
will carry a big chunk of your grade.
To write a good RP, please follow the following thresholds
Title of your Review Paper should be like a statement – indicating the issues, ideas, and analysis covered inside your paper.
Read all the assigned materials including the two text books
Focus on the issues and concepts in the assigned materials
(It may be a good idea to take the lead from the contents of
the assigned materials in the text books to grasp the fundamental
understanding of the concepts and issues and from discussions in the
virtual class)
4. Try to conceptualize a few themes based on your reading.
5. Discuss these themes in your paper in a critical and meaningful manner.
6. Make sure the main body of your paper deals with the pros and cons of your chosen topic.
7. Write a conclusive comment of one paragraph to half page.
This conclusive statement should exhibit your own creativity and
analysis. Please keep in mind, this part is very important, because it
may make or break your grade.
8. Whenever necessary citation should be provided.
9. Under no circumstance, don’t write a Paper which is down
loaded stuff from somewhere else – without your own input. This will be
considered plagiarism.
