Submission Feedback

Funmi, thanks for this submission. Unfortunately, most of the issues identified by Dr. Mast during the first evaluation remain. Because you did not re-submit your PowerPoint presentation, I was unable to reassess those areas of the submission - for your next submission, please make sure your submit your corrected presentation. The major issue in your assessment is your incorrect financial analysis - you portray a profitable, going concern in your analysis, when the data reflects something very different. I encourage you to think through your analysis very carefully and review the financial data submitted with the case; use this data and only this data in performing your analysis. I have also pointed out numerous writing issues in your paper - please address all of these for your next submission. The next submission will be your third and final attempt at this competency. Take your time and review and address all my feedback before resubmission. If you have questions regarding any of my feedback - please do not hesitate to contact me for clarification. I would be happy to schedule a call with you if that would help. Because this is your final attempt, I would like to review a draft of your assessment as your SME, before you re-submit to make sure everything has been addressed. Thanks, Dr. Steve
