C++ Programming Help at HelpWithAssignment.com

C++ is one of the most popular languages ever created. Its application domains include system software, application software, device drivers, embedded software, high performance server and client applications and entertainment software such as video games. C++ is also used in hardware design. The standard version of C++ is ISO//IEC 14882:2003.

Here is an example of a Program to enter an integer and output the cube of that integer

#include

#include

int cube(int x); //The prototype.



void main()

{

clrscr();

int a;

cout << "Enter an integer : ";

cin>>a;

cout << "The cube of " << a << " is : " << cube(a) << endl; //Call the function cube(a).

getch();

}

//Defining the function.

int cube(int x)

{

int y;

y=x*x*x;

return(y);

}

Here a function called the cube of a number is being created and that function defined and is stored in a variable called int y. Where, y = x*x*x which x3.

When we run the function by entering a number the output, i.e., the cube of that particular number is generated.

Java Programming help at HelpWithAssignment.com

Java is one of the most popular Programming languages in use today in Application software and Web Applications. It is a general-purpose, concurrent, class based and object oriented language that is specifically designed to have implementation dependencies as possible.

Let us look at an example on finding whether a Number is Even or an Odd number.

public class FindEvenOrOddNumber {

public static void main(String[] args) {

//create an array of 10 numbers
int[] numbers = new int[]{1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10};

for(int i=0; i < numbers.length; i++){
/*
* use modulus operator to check if the number is even or odd.
* If we divide any number by 2 and reminder is 0 then the number is
* even, otherwise it is odd.
*/
if(numbers[i]%2 == 0)
System.out.println(numbers[i] + " is even number.");
else
System.out.println(numbers[i] + " is odd number.");

}
}
}

Here in this example an array is being created and defined. Here “for(int i=0; i < numbers.length; i++){ “ is meant to be the initialization and definition. For(int i=0; I < numbers.length; i++ means that the I cannot be zero and must be greater than the divisor in this case because as we move forward in the code we can see that the definition for the array says that if the number is divided by 2 and the remainder is 0 then the number is an even number. But, mathematically 0 is neither an odd nor an even number, so clearly this rule cannot be broken.

The array “create an array of 10 numbers” is being initiated with a loop “for(int i=0; i < numbers.length; i++){ /*” to calculations to be performed which completes the whole array and the outputs of whether the numbers are even or odd are returned.

C programming at HelpWithAssignment.com

C is a general purpose programming language. C is called a mid-level language because of faster program development like other high-level languages and faster program execution like assembly and machine language. C has a rich set of operators, modern control flow and economy of expressions. C also contains some additional features that allow it to be used at lower level, thus bridging the gap between machine languages and high-level languages. This flexibility allows C to be used for system programming (e.g., for writing operating systems) as well as for applications programming (e.g., for writing a program to solve a complicated system of mathematical equations or for writing a program like customer billing).

Here is an example for Finding LCM and GCD

Finding LCM and GCD

#include
void main()
{
int a[20],n,i,j,c,max,min;
unsigned long prod;
clrscr();
printf("Enter the no. of entries: ");
scanf("%d",&n);
printf("Enter the entries:");
for(i=0;i0)
a[i]=c;
else
{
printf("Invalid Entry");
return;
}
}

max=a[0];
for(i=0;i=max)
max=a[i];
min=a[0];
for(i=0;i0;i--)
{
if (min%i==0)
{
c=0;
for(j=0;j if(a[j]%i==0)
c+=1;
}
if(c==n)
{
printf("The GCD of the nos: %d",i);
break;
}

Tips on making a Good Presentation

Presentations are must in today’s world. A good product or a service needs a good presentation in the form of packaging. A student needs a good presentation to express what he/she knows. An employee needs a good presentation to display his skills. Practically, there are presentations everywhere around us.

If students need to forge ahead in their education and career, they need to know how to present themselves at different levels. A student from high school, college and university are usually asked to talk about or write about a given topic. Students need to develop and enhance these skills so that first, their stage-fear, if any is gone. Second, they will know how to prepare for a topic. For example, if a student is asked to talk or give a presentation about a book, then the student will definitely read the book first, note some important points from that book and will prepare a presentation accordingly. This way, presentation skills are enhanced and they can take up new and greater challenges.

Here are some tips on how to make a good presentation,

1. A good preparation: The key to a good presentation is a good preparation. The audience is not interested in the material that you put into the presentation visuals or slides. They are all ears for your talk. So, put in as little words as possible in the presentation and talk as much as about the topic. And in order to do that one needs to prepare a lot about the subject.

2. Making and maintaining eye-contact: Making and maintaining eye-contact with the audience is one of the essential factors. Otherwise, the presentation will be more like talking to oneself. Do not just look at one person, but look at all the people. This will indulge the audience in the presentation.

3. Let the audience speak: Letting the audience raise doubts, letting them talk is a good way of interaction. This gesture will infuse confidence in yourself, the topic and also in the audience. Don’t let them feel they are ignored. If you feel that the audience is not being able to follow you, stop your presentation and ask them to feel free in asking doubts.

4. Ease the mood: Ease the atmosphere that had heated up by cracking a joke or by telling a small story. This will ease the atmosphere and will help in breaking the ice and cheering up the audience.

5. Do not use fillers in your talk: We do not notice it but, most of us make useless sounds like “uh”, “uhm”. These are called fillers. These sounds irritate the audience very much. In order to avoid them one must prepare about the topic in advance.

6. Give time for questions: The audience will like the presentation only when the presenter gives time for questions. In order to do so, one must in advance anticipate the probable questions and be prepared to answer them in advance.

7. Watch yourself: While rehearsing the presentation record yourself and watch the video to correct it. In this way, you will know your mistakes and correct them. If recording is not possible, present it your friends and take their suggestion.

These are some tips which can help you out in a presentation.

Don’t get left behind in your math class, JOIN US

Many of us had faced this issue of being left behind in our math and science classes some time or the other didn’t we? It is an embarrassing situation when all our friends and classmates are able to understand the topics, the formulae and their implementation and we were not able to.

It so happens that even the teachers are not able to do much, as they have their own classes to take care of. An average class ranges from 20-25 people and the time allocated for each class is about 45-60 minutes. Given this time limitation and the number of students to take care about, it becomes a next to impossible task to make sure that all the students have understood the topic and all their doubts are cleared.

It is often said that there are two kinds of students who do not raise any doubts. One who fully understands and the other does not. A person who raises a doubt is in the process of learning. Majority of the students are filled with doubts. And an average class of 45 minutes is not sufficient in clearing all the doubts that students raise.

The result is dependency on a tutor. We all know how much dearer home tutors and tutorial institutes have become. Luckily, there are online tutors and online tutoring institutes as well.
Online tutoring sessions provide students with the opportunity to learn uninterruptedly and the tutor can concentrate on one student at one time. This makes teaching much easier and fun.

One such Online Tutoring portal is HelpWithAssignment.com. At HelpWithAssignment.com we provide Online Tutoring Services to High school, College and University students. Mathematics is one of our specialties.

Our topics coverage in Mathematics include Basic Mathematics, Algebra, Geometry, Trigonometry, Coordinate Geometry, Matrices, Simultaneous Equation, Quadratic Equation, Logarithm; Advanced Mathematics includes Calculus, Permutation and Combination, 3D Geometry, Differential Equations, Probability.

The above list is not exhaustive. We will take online tutoring in Mathematics other than these topics and other advanced topics as well. We also offer Assignment and Homework help to College and University students. Our work has 0% plagiarism in it. This is the reason why 90% of our students return to us.

Tips on AMA Citation style

AMA stands for American Medical Association. The citation style specifies the writing and citation styles for use in scholarly publications in medicine internationally, including JAMA (Journal for American Medical Association) and the Archive Journals. The first publication came out in 1962 and the latest 10th publication came out in 2007.

The citation style covers a breadth of topics for authors and editor in medicine and related health fields. Even medical students and majors have to use the citation styles to present a dissertation or research work.

Using the citation style is essential because of the fact that the source of the information has to be mentioned in a proper and uniform manner so that the readers of the research paper are convinced of the sources and the authenticity of the data can be verified easily. And also the research can be taken forward to the next level by the next generation research students.

How to conduct a Financial Statement Analysis

Financial Statements are company-issued accounting reports with past performance information that a firm issues periodically (usually quarterly and annually). Companies in the US are required to file their financial statements with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on a quarterly and annually basis. The information in the annual report must also be sent to the shareholders every year. Financial statements are important tools through which investors, financial analysts and other interested parties like the creditors obtain information about a corporation. They are also useful for managers within the firm as a source of information for corporate financial decisions.

Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP): GAAP or Generally Accepted Accounting Principals provide a common set of rules and a standard format for public companies to use when they prepare their reports. This standardization also makes it easier to compare financial statements of different firms. Investors also need an assurance that the information supplied by the company is accurately prepared.

Types of Financial Statements: Every public company is required to produce four financial statements: the balance sheet, the income statement, the statement of cash flows and the statement of stockholders’ equity.

Balance Sheet: A balance sheet of a company lists the firm’s assets and liabilities, providing a snapshot of the firm’s financial position at a given point of time. The balance sheet includes the assets, the liabilities and the shareholders’ equity.

Assets: The assets of a company include the long term assets, current assets and expenses to be written off. Long term assets include land, buildings, equipment, goodwill, patents, trademarks, etc. Current assets include cash, accounts receivable, inventories, prepaid expenses, etc.

Liabilities: The liabilities of a company include long term liabilities, current liabilities and share holders’ equity. Long term liabilities include long term debt, capital lease obligations, deferred taxes and other long term liabilities. Current liabilities include accounts payable, notes payable, current maturities of long term debt.

Shareholders’ Equity: The sum of current liabilities and long term liabilities is total liabilities. The difference between the firm’s assets and total liabilities is the shareholders’ equity. It is also called the book value of equity. It represents the net worth of the company. In the real world, this is a difficult proposition as the firm’s market value of the asset and liabilities differ from their book value. The assets of the company are based on their historical cost rather than on their market value. Same is the case with liabilities also. For these reasons the book value of equity is an inaccurate assessment of the actual value of the firm’s equity. This is not surprising that it will differ substantially from the amount investors are willing to pay for the equity. The total market value of a company’s equity equals the market price per share times the number of shares, referred to as the company’s market capitalization. The market value of stock does not depend on the historical cost of the company’s assets; instead it depends on what investors expect those assets to produce in the future.

Balance Sheet Analysis: A great deal of useful of information from a firm’s balance sheet can be obtained. These include Market to Book Ratio, Debt- Equity Ratio, Enterprise Value, etc.

Income Statement: The Income Statement is a list of the company’s revenues and expenses over a period of time. The last or the bottom line of the income statement shows the company’s net income, which is a measure of its profitability during the period. The income statement is sometimes called a profit and loss statement and the net income is referred to as the company’s earnings.

Statement of Cash Flows: The income statement provides a measure of the company’s profit over a given time period. However, it does not indicate the amount of cash the firm earned. There are two reasons that net income does not correspond to cash earned. First, there are non-cash entries on the income statement, such as depreciation and amortization. Second, certain uses of cash, such as the purchase of a building or expenditures on inventory, are not reported on the income statement. The company’s statement of cash flows utilizes the information from the income statement and balance sheet to determine how much cash the company has generated and how that cash has been allocated, during a set period. From the perspective of an investor attempting to value the firm, the statement of cash flows provides what may be the most important information of the four financial statements. The statement is divided into three sections: operating activities, investment activities and financing activities.

There are several other pieces of information contained in the financial statements warrant brief mention: the management discussion analysis, the statement of shareholders’ equity and notes to the financial statement.

Tips on writing a Book Critique

Writing a book critique is one of the tasks that a student has to handle in college. More often students are assigned the activity of writing a book critique during vacation. Many students find it not very interesting to read a book and to review that book.

Tasks like these will encourage students in taking up reading as a serious hobby. More often teachers, academicians and psychologists say that reading is the best way to gain knowledge. And reading from an earlier stage will improve the imaginative and innovative capabilities in children and teenagers. Writing a book review or a critique will improve the students’ perception and will gently pushes them in to forming opinions about literary work.

A book review should compose of the activities that are mentioned below.

The first step in a book review is to read the book thoroughly. Then comes the part of noting down the details about the book which include the title of the book, name of the author, the genre of the book, the prior work and achievements of the author have to be mentioned.

If it is a fictional book then the plot of the book and a small insight into the characterizations of the protagonists and the antagonists of book have to be mentioned. Briefly mention about the plot, the way the story begins, how the story takes shape, the pace of the story and the ending of the story if required.

In most cases, avoid mentioning about how the story ends. Mentioning the end will lift the veil of suspense that author had maintained throughout the story.

The next step is taking down the details of the important events and turning points in the book. Make note of the best conversations of the characters in the book. And mention them where they are very much necessary.

A personal opinion about the book, a particular character that you liked, the overall work can be mentioned. This will definitely add to the score. A unique stand about the plot, the characterizations and in some cases the ending of the story can be commented on.

One particular aspect of book review writing that teachers expect from students is given a chance what would you change in the book. This is an important question that every book review writer has to answer, even if no such question has been asked. If the teacher explicitly asks the students not to include this part, then avoid it. But, if there is no such limitation, then write about what you would have changed about the book.

We at HelpWithAssignment.com provide High-school, College and University students assistance in Assignments, Homework and Online Tutoring in various subjects including English.

Now-a-days movies are not just a source of entertainment but a way of reaching out into the minds of people. Recent developments in the animation and special effects in movies have opened up a new frontier and a great way of expressing ideas and thoughts. Some of the movies have been inspiring people in many ways. One is the motivation and sometimes movies have sprouted ideas in minds of scientists in inventing the gadgets that were shown in the movies.

A good practice in writing a movie review will improve students’ perception. The essentials of a good movie review should comprise of the following.

The first essential and obvious step is to watch the movie. Sometimes some movies have to be watched a number of times in order to fully understand them. While watching a movie one should take down notes of the important scenes, conversations from the movie. This is an essential step as there is a chance that one might forget about an important scene from the movie.

Give the name, the director, the lead actors and the genre details of the movie. The skill of the director in handling the movie, the acting skills displayed by the lead actors in the movie and their prior works and achievements has to be mentioned.

In order that a good review should come out try giving your personal opinion about the movie as well. This will make your essay unique. Giving personal opinions about movies or books is always welcome, but do not forget that if personal opinions are to be avoided, avoid them.

Mention some details about the plot of the movie. Briefly describe about how the movie begins, how the movie takes off, how the pace of the movie is and how it ends. Just be brief and do not try getting into too many details. Just two paragraphs will suffice.

Mention about the technical aspects of the movie like the visual design, special effects, the screenplay, the camera work, the lighting, etc. If the movie is based on real story then mention how accurate the movie is chronologically regarding the events.

Try and compare the movie with similar movies. There will be a greater chance of critical evaluation once the movie is compared with similar movies.

The last step is editing and proof reading what you have written. Editing and proof reading is important as there is always a scope for improvement.

Are you looking for Mathematics Online Tutoring services, your search ends here

Mathematics! This subject gives nightmares to many students and some students are really bored by the student. Often many teachers and parents complain that children do not score well in mathematics apart from being good in other subjects. Some children are really afraid of the subject that they do not want to talk about it, even casually.

Many teachers complain lack of attention in mathematics class. This is due to the fact that one teacher has to teach a class of 20-30 students. It is a very low chance that all the children have identical or similar abilities of grasping subjects, especially mathematics. This makes the class even more challenging for the teacher. So, they are not able to concentrate on all the children in the same way and give equal importance to all students. Only some students can grab the attention of the teacher and some cannot. This is more or less the same situation in a regular tutoring institution. One tutor teaches a group of say 10 students. Even here, the weak students try desperately to grab the tutor’s attention and they fail ending up with many doubts in subjects, especially mathematics. This can only mean one thing; those students find it hard to move forward in their education and careers.

A best alternative to this situation is the online tutoring. Online tutoring unlike conventional tutoring sessions, hold their classes online and we all know that.

Understanding Analysis of Covariance (ANCOVA) – Statistics Assignment help by HelpwithAssignment.com

Similar to an ANOVA, ANCOVA examines the effect of an Independent on Dependent variable. The Independent variable is nominal (categorical) and Dependent variable is interval (continuous). In real life, there are many other variables that can affect the Dependent Variable such as Confounding Variables.

Hypothesis testing (ANCOVA)
• Null Hypothesis (Ho): There is no significant difference between treatment conditions in the Independent Variable on the Dependent Variable
• Ho: M1=M2=M3……=MK
• Alternative Hypothesis (Ha): There is significant difference between treatment conditions in the Independent Variable on the Dependent Variable
• Ha: Means are not equal
• M1=M2=M3……=MK =Means of the different groups

ANCOVA Assumptions
• Random Sample: There was no selection bias in forming the different groups.
• Normality: Assumes that here are no outliers in the performance of participants and skewness is near zero
• Homogeneity of variance (Levene’s test): the dependent variable must have equal variances. If Levene’s test is not significant, homogeneity of variances is met
• Independence Assumption: assumes that a particular person’s performance should not be influenced by confounds or other experimental groups.
• There is a linear relationship between the DV and covariates
• Covariate is reliable and measured without error

ANCOVA example
• A researcher is trying to investigate the effects of being in different academic programs (general, academic and vocational) on a students’ performance on the writing section of a standardized exam. The researcher uses the students’ performance on the reading section of a standardized exam as a covariate.

Tips on Writing a Good Speech

Speech writing is one of the important activities that students have to go through. Speech delivering has been used in the curriculum so that students will be more confident in addressing a group of people. Stage fear is one of the fears that students can overcome only by facing it. Otherwise, this fear will remain for a long time.

Now let us discuss some points on how to write a speech.

A speech should contain an introduction, a body and a conclusion. Please ensure that the introduction is not more than 3-4 sentences. Limit the body to 7-8 sentences and the conclusion can be about 2-3 sentences.

Begin the speech with the introduction of who you are the topic that you will be speaking about and the purpose of the speech. The purpose of the speech is very important.

The body can be broken down into points for the sake of ease of delivery. If you are going for a points instead of a paragraph please ensure that the most important point is discussed first and the rest of the points follow.

A good writer must write with the final takers kept in mind. In this case, it is the listeners, about whom one must think. Think from the viewpoint of the listeners and write. Do not write something that can offend the listeners.

Check for the length of the sentences and the tone of your language. Lengthy sentences can make the listeners lose interest and the tone of the language can sometimes offend them. Choice of words is an important aspect that one should be careful at.

Try keeping the speech simple and brief and also informative at the same time. This is a tough job, but one must balance it because of the time being allotted to each student.

Support you views and ideas by providing statistical evidence, facts, examples, quotations and a pinch of humor to ease the environment.

The conclusion should contain the advantages in brief, your views as the writer, recommendations if necessary. This is about the conclusion part. The conclusion part should also include the main purpose. This will leave the listeners with a good impression.

A good speech is not just about a well-written script in hand and reading it out loud but a good interaction with the listeners. The listeners will like the subject when the speaker is in an interactive mode, asking questions and giving answers to the listeners, thereby making the speech more interesting.

Tips on Choosing a Research Subject

Many students find themselves at crossroads when it comes to choosing a research subject. It is difficult to choose a research subject as not only the interest of the student is involved but also one’s expertise in the subject will be a guiding factor in choosing a subject. This is very important as choosing the right subject will determine the final scores of the student.

Let us now know the process of choosing subject for research.

Research is one the crucial phases in higher education. Students await it eagerly because they will be working on their favorite subjects. But, majority of students find it a little difficult to choose a subject for research.

Do not take hasty decisions while choosing a subject. Think over which subject you like to work on and do a preliminary research about the availability of required material in the library.

One of the best and the easiest ways of doing this is to ask the faculty about it. Faculty can provide the best alternative which the student might not come to the mind of the student, but your faculty might.

Collect as much as information about the subject through scientific journals, magazines and periodicals. Take the help of your librarian in collecting not only the required material but also collecting the periodicals, journals, magazines.

After you have decided on the subject, take very little time to refine the idea by narrowing down to specific topics. This will increase the scope of your research. It will be more reasonable to complete the work in time.

Narrowing down on the research topic is also an important and thought provoking task. Right topic chosen at the right time will determine the success of the research.

The above techniques can be applied for choosing a research topic as well. But, some more effort must be allocated for this task.

In some cases, there is not enough research done on the topic and the students find it hard to continue with the topic. If you think that there is not enough research done on it, please forget about it as that will lead you to nowhere.

After all the necessary things have been done in choosing the subject and the topic start the information search and do this by making a note of everything that you have done and doing. Also make a check list of things that you have to do.

By this time you should have prepared a timetable and start following it without any discrepancies.

Try to complete the research in time and set aside a significant amount of time for editing or corrections. Scrutiny your work twice and get it scrutinize the work with experts.

Tips for writing a Biography

A biography is a record of one’s life. It is written in order to know what are the incidents and events that make up a person’s life. Biographies can be used to analyze and interpret the events in a person’s life.

Every student has to write a biography at least once during education. But, the depth and the detail will vary from grade to grade. A lower grade student’s biography will be very simpler to that of a middle school level or a high-school level biography.

Let us discuss a few tips to write a good biography.

Each biography will include basic details like the date of birth and death (if any), family information, achievements in life, major incidents or events in life, impact of the person on society and the historical significance of the person.

Collecting the basic information about the date of birth and death, daily activities, etc is not a great task in itself. But, collecting information about the person’s hardships in life, the courage that the person displayed and the achievements in the due course of time, etc are important. This will also include the morals or the ethics of the person. Overall, the writer must be able to shed a light on the character of the person.

An important point here is that while writing a biography, the readers will be more interested in the achievements of the person rather than the dates. Mentioning the details of the events of the person’s life is important, but not as much as the achievements or the character or the ethics for which the person stood for or fought for are much more important.

The beginning of the biography must be made a little interesting. This will create an excitement in the readers. But, at the same time it must also be relevant. A small paragraph of about two or three lines can be mentioned about the person’s greatest achievement and then the person’s life from the very beginning can be talked about.

Good grades to the student can be guaranteed if a biography is written with the above mentioned points are followed. We wish all the best to all those students who are about to write a biography.

For more details on how to write a good biography one can visit our website http://www.helpwithassignment.com/. We provide Assignment help, Homework help, Online tutoring in various subjects to College and University students. Our subject coverage includes Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry, Biology, Nursing, Engineering, Management, Marketing, Finance, Accounting, Human Resources, Operations Management, Strategic Planning, Statistics, etc. The list is not exhaustive.

Tips on writing different type of essays – like narrative, descriptive, persuasive

Essay writing is one of the crucial skills that a student needs to master throughout his/her education. Essay writing will develop the students' writing skill, reading skill, improves concentration and will help them possess knowledge about various things that are happening around the world.

The types of essay writing which students are asked to write generally are (a) narrative, (b) descriptive and (c) persuasive. The first two types of essay writing involve narrating and describing particular incidents in daily life or incidents which historically, politically, scientifically are important. These include describing those incidents.

The third type of essay writing is persuasive essay writing. This type of essay writing involves persuading the readers to persuade them and convince and make them accept the arguments put forth by the writer. It is very important to learn how to write a persuasive essay, as in the future the very same student will have to convince a Board of Academic Counselors to admit him or her in their college or university or convince a board of recruiting officers to select him for a particular work.

A close look at the three types of essays will reveal us some more details.

Narrative type of essay-writing: A narrative essay is very similar to writing a story. The writer concentrates on his/her memories and writes an incident which took place with him/her or with his/her friend. Or writing about a movie watched, a book recently read, and or a place visited recently. Most of the time, narrative essays come from personal experiences. The essays are usually filled with details that are carefully selected to explain, support and embellish the story.

Descriptive type of essay-writing: Descriptive type of essay writing is also very similar to narrative type of essay-writing. A descriptive essay is more advanced in nature than a narrative essay. Descriptive essays are written not only to describe the physical appearance of someone or something but one should also describe the inner qualities of that particular person or thing.

Persuasive type of essay-writing: Persuasive type of essay writing is also known as argument essay writing. As already discussed, this type of writing involves persuading the readers to believe in what the writer is conveying. Putting forward the arguments requires a good sense of logical thinking, analyzing facts, etc. The task involves certain things like (a) choosing the position, (b) analyzing the audience, (c) researching the topic, (d) structuring the essay.

Choosing a position: The writer must choose a position in a situation or an issue and should look for what his/her arguments will offer at the end.

Analyzing the audience: The audience or the readers must be convinced of what one is arguing. One must observe whether they agree, remain neutral or disagree with the arguments.

Researching on the topic: in order to know thoroughly about the topic, one must read as much as about it from different sources. One must be very confident in putting forward a statement.

Structuring the essay: the essay shall include the evidence that one wants to present in support of the argument.

These are the different types of essay writing. For more details you can visit our website http://www.helpwithassignment.com/.

Tips on how to write a Book Report

Writing a Book Report is thought by many students as a boring writing exercise, but it can be interesting too. They do not realize the benefits and the importance of this exercise early on. Writing a book report will increase many of their reading abilities. It will open up their minds about the various things in life and realize the value of life. These are the invisible benefits. The visible benefits are their vocabulary will increase. As they have to write a report about a book, they will concentrate on the book well and will try to remember or note down important points. This practice will benefit them by increasing their concentration and will also let them practice the best ways to highlight and note down important points.

There are ways through which one can write a book report.

• The first and the foremost thing is, not just reading the book but to study it. Studying the book requires devoting 100% attention on the book. And how good the person might be in studying, one tends to forget one or more important points. They need to note down those important points. So, from each chapter, the important point or turning point should be noted.

• Secondly, after all the points have been noted, the actual report writing begins. In this part, a basic introduction about the book, the author, the brief storyline (if fiction), the message that the author is trying to convey through the book, the tone of the literature, etc have to be mentioned.
• Then, in the third stage the points that you have noted down must be mentioned, of course according to the need. The points that were noted, have to mentioned and they have to explained by the reader as the most important thing in writing the book report is the reader’s understanding of the book.

• Finally, the report must contain a balance of the general and the specific ideas from the book and avoid abstract ideas. Putting in abstract ideas will convey that the reader had read the book properly.

Summarize the overall significance of the book. What do you think is best about the book, what has the book given to the world in terms of knowledge or experience. What do you think is the most interesting thing in the book. Questioning and answering these questions by oneself will give the right answers for the book report.

Management Information System Assignment help by HelpwithAssignment.com

Management Information System can be defined as a discipline focused on the integration of computer systems with the aims and objectives in an organization. Integrating computers in the core and support processes has enabled many organizations to augment the speed at which the work is processed. The development and management of information technology tools assists the executives and the general work force in performing any tasks related to the processing of information. MIS and business systems are especially useful in the collation of business data and the production of reports to be used as tools for decision making.

Applications of MIS:

There is hardly any business today where there is no computer. Every organization tiny, small or large has computers. The dependency on computers has increased enormously in the recent times. Small, medium and large organizations have to maintain as many computers 90% to 100% of their workforce.

Information systems can be used to process and transform data into meaningful information for the purpose of decision making. As small, medium and large organizations have to periodically take decisions regarding the present performance and take appropriate action. They also need to retrospect the work that has already been done and maintain the data for future reference. The same was a painstaking task when physical record books were around. Now, Information systems with enormous amount of data handling capability can do the trick within no time.

In the past when there were hardly any computers, if organizations, say for example had to introduce a product and wanted to know how the an earlier, similar product was received by customers. For this information, the analysts would have had to search all the past books and take out the relevant data and collate them into a meaningful information. But, today the same work can be done within the matter of minutes. As management students know that past records are crucial to an organization as the data will be very much useful for predicting the future trends for the products.

In some situations information systems can simulate hypothetical situations and give out the result. This if done in real world will put an heavy cost burden on the organization.
Information processing time has been reduced 90% with the introduction of Information systems. Information systems process the present data and give out relevant information to the management in the form of reports. Of all the data, financial data which is very crucial in an organization is processed by the information systems. Without the presence of computers, there is a big scope for human error. But, with computers that risk is avoided completely, thereby giving accurate data to the management.

Different systems have evolved in the recent years which have taken the responsibility of data processing at different levels. They are Transaction Processing Systems, Management Information Systems, Decision Support Systems, Executive Information Systems and other systems like Data Warehouse Systems, Enterprise Resource Planning, Geographic Information System, etc. Each system has a unique role to play in an organization. For example, Transaction Processing System is extensively used where business interacts with customers directly like retail stores, Banks, etc. Management Information system is used to process the information from the Transaction Processing System make it relevant for decision making.

Service Marketing Assignment help by HelpWithAssignment.com

It is difficult to provide one single definition of a service, but let’s try:
• Level 1: service is an intangible offering with little or no transfer of physical products to the customer. Ex; car rentals, insurance, education
• Level 2: service is a one part of product-service mix being offered to customers. Ex; restaurants. The physical goods are as important as the service part of the offering & customers have to be satisfied with both
• Level 3: the main offering is the product but the supplier also provides some service. Ex; car service & installation of equipment
• Level 4: every product or service or any combination of a mix of the two ultimately is supposed to provide service for customer. The customer buys a car because it provides him transportation services. This idea is gaining ground as companies are increasingly trying to become customer oriented

Characteristics of Service Marketing
Intangibility: the customer decision is completely dependent on is understanding of the service product at a given point of time & his belief in the marketer’s promise of future performance
Low Price Sensitivity: performance & price sensitivity are inversely related
No Inventory: profitability & viability are extremely critical for the service provider is to deliver exemplary service to the customer
Value Creation Process: in service industry is through people, process, proof of performance & the pace at which the service is delivered
Tangibility: is provided to the service product by the service provider, communication & the speed at which the service is delivered. The ambiance of the service product helps in creating an appropriate set of beliefs which will help reassure the customer.
o In the context of internet services like call centers, or dedicated websites like shaadi.com or contest2win.com, etc
Inseparability: services can not be separated from the creator-seller of the service. Eg: Dentists create & dispense almost all their services at the same time, & they require the presence of the consumer for the services to be performed
Heterogeneity: it is difficult of not impossible for a service firm, or even an individual seller of services, to standardize output . Each unit of service is somewhat different from every other unit of the same service
Perishability: the services cannot be stored or inventoried for future use.

Importance of Services Marketing
In most industrialized economies, expenditure on services is growing due to:
• Advances in technology that has led to more sophisticated products that require more services
• Growth of per capita income has given rise to a greater percentage of income being spent on luxuries such as restaurants, overseas holidays, etc.,
• A trend towards outsourcing means that manufacturers are buying services that are outside the firm’s core expertise (warehousing, catering)
• Deregulation has increased level of competition in certain service industries like telecom
• Due to growth in per capita income, people are buying more goods, which has contributed to making retailing an important service

Purchasing Power Parity (PPP) by helpwithassignment.com

What is Parity Pricing in International Markets?

The theory that states that the exchange rate between one currency and anther is in equilibrium when their domestic purchasing powers at that rate of exchange are equivalent

Lets further understand the concept:
  • If the exchange rate is AU$1.00 = US$0.60, the exchange rate is in equilibrium when AU$1.00 will buy the same goods in Australia as US$0.60 in the US
  • The price of tradable goods, when expressed in a common currency, will tend to equalise across countries as a result of exchange rate changes
  • Consumers will shift their demand, assuming no international barriers, and purchase goods from the country offering the lowest price for the same goods
  • Where consumers shift their demand abroad, on the basis of price, increased demand will force foreign price rises and therefore re-establish price equilibrium (PPP)
