DB 50 Budgeting

At a minimum, each student will be expected to post an original and thoughtful response to the DB question and contribute to the weekly dialogue by responding to at least two other posts from students. The first contribution must be posted before midnight (Central Time) on Wednesday of each week. Two additional responses are required after Wednesday of each week. Students are highly encouraged to engage on the Discussion Board early and often, as that is the primary way the university tracks class attendance and participation.

The purpose of the Discussion Board is to allow students to learn through sharing ideas and experiences as they relate to course content and the DB question. Because it is not possible to engage in two-way dialogue after a conversation has ended, no posts to the DB will be accepted after the end of each unit.

The Make a Way Foundation has run into a financial crisis. Halfway into their fiscal year, the financier has realized that the company has not put enough money aside to cover all of their costs for the children’s summer expense project.  

For this assignment you should identify possible reasons for the misallocation of funding and give suggestions on what could be done to save the Children Summer Expense Project. You must answer the following:

            Give at least three (3) possible reasons why the funding was overlooked.

            Suggest at least three (3) ways that the Children’s Summer Expense Project could be saved

In your own words, please post a response to the Discussion Board and comment on at least two other postings. You will be graded on the quality of your postings.

For assistance with your assignment, please use your text, Web resources, and all course materials.
