Converting NPV and IRR Cash Flows into a Financial Calculator Using an Excel Template
Get PDFAn Excel template is developed that converts a series of cash flows on a timeline into the associated keystrokes for the TI BAII-Plus financial calculator in order to calculate NPV and IRR. Unlike videos and other presentations, the student is able to see, all at once, the keystrokes required for the financial calculator within the template after the student enters the correct inputs for how the cash flows occur through time. Many times, this crucial link of translating the cash flows through time into the financial calculator is lost. Further exercises are provided to reinforce proficiency
Decolonial Antiracist Feminist Digital Activism: Naming Carolina Maria de Jesus, Lélia González, and Marielle Franco on Twitter
No full textThis chapter analyses Ubuntu as central to the practice of naming as deployed by antiracist feminists in Brazil. We argue that name listing, name repetition, and citation, among Brazilian feminists of Color, are closely related to Ubuntu philosophy, helping to open up counterpublic spaces of resistance among Brazilian antiracist feminists. Through naming, users acknowledge their place in a larger feminist, antiracist tradition, strengthen their sense of citizenship, create contentious lineages and establish alliances with intersectional feminists in other areas of the Global North and South. Naming is an identity maintenance technique that creates collective identities, disseminates knowledge, offers role models and inspiration, creates memorials for the deceased and celebrates the actions of new and future generations. This is why it is strongly connected to Ubuntu philosophy. We focus on three Black female intellectuals—Marielle Franco, Lélia González, and Carolina Maria de Jesus—analysing tweets referencing their names, their transnational circulation, the appearance of hashtags, the users more frequently referenced and retweeted, and the topics mobilized in social networks
Heroes of the Memphis Civil Rights Movement: Maxine A. Smith and Russell B. Sugarmon, Jr.
Get PDFTwo intertwined leaders of the modern civil rights movement of the 1950s and 1960s in Memphis, Tennessee, were Maxine Atkins Smith and Russell B. Sugarmon, Jr., both of whom were African American. Both were born in Memphis in 1929, and they shared commonalities in their personal histories and rose to become key leaders of the Memphis movement. Along with displaying courage and persistence, they were true pioneers in the Black freedom struggle in Memphis and Shelby County who employed organizational skills and community involvement as key to their social activism. This article examines their early activism from the mid-1950s until 1964
[Abstract for] Using Excel’s “LAMBDA” Function to Compute Modified Duration, Dollar Duration, and Bond Convexity
Get PDFWe create a modified duration function that is more accessible than Excel’s current Macaulay duration function (=DURATION) which requires several details about the bond.
The dollar duration and convexity functions are not currently available in Excel’s default functions. When these functions are copied to a second Excel file, the functions automatically become available as functions within the second file without the need for recreating the functions.
We provide instructions on how to implement the =LAMBDA function to more than just the creation of the bond application functions
