1. Using the appropriate table from the Chapter 12 Appendix, (SEE ATTACHMENT) record the present value factor at 10% for each year and compute the present value cost of owning and the present value of leasing. Which alternative is more desirable at this interest rate? Do you think your answer would change if the interest rate were six percent instead of ten percent?

2. Locate several health care organizations? mission, value and vision statements. Use public sources with no privacy concerns.

Then fit the statements you have discovered into the chapter?s categories of ?recognizing a special status or focus within the statements?; financial emphasis within the statements?; and/or ?relaying the message?.
