Question:
Review a publicly traded company(Netflix) that is considering analysing for capstone project. You will provide the reason you choose to look at this company for your capstone project, introduce the key goods and services provided by the company, and explain how the company is organised. Prompt: First, review the Capstone Project Guidelines and Rubric document so that you understand the scope of the capstone project. Then, visit the SEC EDGAR Company Filings web page and select a company for your capstone project. Research the company's background using the corporate website and other web resources. Be sure to cite your sources in APA style. Next, identify the company and address the following critical elements:
Company selection: Explain why you have chosen this company for your final project (personal interest, commercial interest, professional interest, etc.).
Financial Context: Key Goods or Services/Features: Describe the key goods and services provided by the selected organisation. Include information about where, why and for whom they are provided. Separate the financial interest of the company into financial and non-financial characteristics. For example: Are you a manufacturer that offers its own financing to customers? Is the company currently facing any financial problems? Explain how these organisational characteristics (eg, major products or services, customers, location) help set the boundaries for business decisions.
Required:
Describe how the company is organised (by product groups, geographic region, function, etc.).
Explain how the organisation of the company affects accounting and financial information and subsequent business decisions.
Hint: A good place to look for this information is in the notes to the financial statements. For example: Does the company's presentation use GAAP and are there provisions for non-GAAP presentation? Or, how is income from foreign affiliates treated?
Note: This document and instructor feedback will inform milestone one of the final project, which will be delivered in module three. Rubric Guidelines for Submission: The short essay should follow these format guidelines: 1-2 pages in length (excluding title and reference pages), double-spaced, 12-point Times New Roman font, margins an inch and quotes in the latest APA style.
