  • Integrating Excel, SQL, and SPSS Within an Introductory Finance Intrinsic Value Assignment
    Journal of Finance and Accountancy Volume 20, September, 2015 Integrating Excel, SQL, and SPSS within an Introductory Finance Intrinsic Value Assignment Richard Walstra Dominican University Anne Drougas Dominican University Steve Harrington Dominican University ABSTRACT In 2013, the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB) issued revised accreditation standards to address a “new era” of business education. The standards recognize that students will be entering a data-driven world and need skills in information technology to analyze and manage data. Employer surveys also emphasize the importance of technological skills and knowledge in a rapidly changing environment. To address these challenges, business faculty in all disciplines must adapt course content to incorporate software tools and statistical applications and integrate active learning tools that provide students with hands-on experience. This paper describes a technology-based, business valuation assignment instructors can employ within an undergraduate managerial finance course. The assignment draws upon historical financial data from the restaurant industry as students predict the intrinsic value of a firm through the application of various software products. Students receive data in an Access database and create SQL queries to determine free cash flows before transferring information into Excel for further analysis. Students continue by uploading key data elements into SPSS and performing statistical analysis on three growth models in order to identify a desired predictor of intrinsic value. The assignment develops students’ abilities to navigate software tools, understand statistical concepts, and apply quantitative decision making. Key Words: Business valuation, growth rates, software tools Copyright statement: Authors retain the copyright to the manuscripts published in AABRI journals.

Yet many applications and BI warehouses by organizations find that extracting data from almost any source can moving data and metadata from Cognos be a slow and cumbersome process. They need to be able to extract TM1, Oracle Hyperion, SAP Business Warehouse (BW) or other applications. data quickly, in a repeatable process that eliminates the need to start over again in the next planning or reporting cycle. IBM® Cognos® • Performs automated high-speed Integration Server satisfies this need with a high-performance, data extraction. easy-to-use alternative to manual data extraction processes. • Offers an intuitive interface designed for business users. IBM Cognos Integration Server • Supports continuous planning and As proprietary applications for business intelligence (BI) and reporting cycles. performance management (PM) have transitioned from being data end-points to key sources of information, the need to extract that information from these varied systems for loading into centralized repositories has grown to be a business imperative. The various sources can become “data islands,” with users forced to constantly compare spreadsheets to confirm that the information is correct. Custom interfaces are too unstable to reliably extract data and metadata for reporting purposes. IT requires the rigidity of a relational system while finance users need their cubes.

  • A FORTRAN 77 Program for a Nonparametric Item Response Model: the Mokken Scale Analysis
    BehaviorResearch Methods, Instruments, & Computers 1988, 20 (5), 471-480 A FORTRAN 77 program for a nonparametric item response model: The Mokken scale analysis JOHANNES KINGMA University of Utah, Salt Lake City, Utah and TERRY TAERUM University ofAlberta, Edmonton, Alberta, Canada A nonparametric item response theory model-the Mokken scale analysis (a stochastic elabo­ ration of the deterministic Guttman scale}-and a computer program that performs this analysis are described. Three procedures of scaling are distinguished: a search procedure, an evaluation of the whole set of items, and an extension of an existing scale. All procedures provide a coeffi­ cient of scalability for all items that meet the criteria of the Mokken model and an item coeffi­ cient of scalability for every item. Four different types of reliability coefficient are computed both for the entire set of items and for the scalable items. A test of robustness of the found scale can be performed to analyze whether the scale is invariant across different subgroups or samples. This robustness test serves as a goodness offit test for the established scale. The program is writ­ ten in FORTRAN 77. Two versions are available, an SPSS-X procedure program (which can be used with the SPSS-X mainframe package) and a stand-alone program suitable for both main­ frame and microcomputers. The Mokken scale model is a stochastic elaboration of which both mainframe and MS-DOS versions are avail­ the well-known deterministic Guttman scale (Mokken, able. These programs, both named Mokscal, perform the 1971; Mokken & Lewis, 1982; Mokken, Lewis, & Mokken scale analysis. Before presenting a review of the Sytsma, 1986).
