Case Study

 Case Study Analysis Instructions FINA 5260: Principles of Finance Over the course of this class, you will develop a 1000-word Case Study Analysis (CSA), utilizing the skills and information you acquire from the reading, discussion, and your own research. In addition to analyzing your chosen case study, you must also discuss how the situation can be approached from a Biblical perspective and how the teachings from the Bible have and will affect your personal approach to finance. While the final product is the only part of the assignment that will be submitted to the instructor and graded, you are strongly encouraged to begin your project in Module/Week 1. Your participation in the provided Case Study Analysis discussion board forums is a factor that your instructor will take into consideration when grading the final draft of your paper. To ensure that you are making progress throughout the duration of the course, it is recommended that you follow this schedule as you write your paper: Module/Week 1 CSA Topic Selection Module/Week 2 CSA Introduction Module/Week 4 CSA Body Module/Week 5 CSA Conclusion Module/Week 6 CSA Peer Review Module/Week 7 CSA Final Draft (graded assignment worth 100 points) Case Study Analysis Topic Selection In Module/Week 1, you should choose your case study topic either from the list provided or by finding your own.

The body should be a thorough analysis of the research topic, including details and evidences of the case study and a discussion of the ethical issues, if any. You should: (1) clearly state your opinion and defend your position in a way that is logically consistent, (2) identify and discuss the factors that should be considered ethically relevant to the case, and (3) indicate both awareness and thoughtful consideration of different viewpoints, which allows the readers to understand clearly the line of reasoning.

You are also encouraged to reply to other students’ posts to provide feedback and suggestions. The link to this forum can be found in the Modules/Weeks 3 and 4 Learning Activities and Assessment folders. Case Study Conclusion In Module/Week 5, you should work on the conclusion of your paper. A conclusion is the last paragraph(s) of your research paper. In your conclusion, you should summarize the ethical issues and synthesize these issues to develop a persuasive resolution. For example: • Is there a conflict between moral and legal principles? • What is the best solution for such a conflict? • What is the teaching from a Biblical perspective? In academic writing, a well-crafted conclusion is typically developed: • To connect the paper’s findings to a larger context, such as the wider conversation about an issue as it is presented in a course or in other published writing. • To suggest the implications of your findings or the importance of the topic. • To ask questions or suggest ideas for further research. • To revisit your main idea or research question with new insight. You may post a rough draft of your conclusion or share any struggles and/or questions you have come across by posting a new thread in the provided CSA Conclusion Discussion Board Forum. You are also encouraged to reply to other students’ posts to provide feedback and suggestions. The link to this forum can be found in the Module/Week 5 Learning Activities and Assessment folder. Case Study Peer Review In Module/Week 6, you should post the first draft of your full paper (introduction, body, conclusion, and reference page), attached as a Microsoft Word document in a new thread to the CSA Peer Review Discussion Board Forum. You are encouraged to post your paper no later than Tuesday of Module/Week 6 to give your peers plenty of time to review your paper. You are responsible for communicating with your peers to get your paper peer-reviewed on time. You should then read two other classmates’ papers and provide feedback. As the reviewer, you should complete the review process, provide detailed comments, and post the revised document  FINA 5260 | Principles of Finance Page 3 of 3 as a reply to your classmate’s original thread. If possible, try to respond to a classmate who has not already received feedback so that everyone in the class receives at least one evaluation of their paper. To review and provide feedback on your peer’s paper, you can use the Comments and/or Track Changes features of Microsoft Word. You can access these feature by clicking the Review tab in Microsoft Word. The Track Changes (or New Comments) function will automatically indicate the areas that were changed or you can manually detail your suggested revisions by adding New Comments. Please refer to the screenshot and video tutorial below for further help in using these features. https://youtu.be/FVG2au1kuCs Case Study Final Draft For the conclusion of your project, you must format and revise the first draft of your research paper by: • Incorporating the reviewer’s comments in your manuscript and revise your paper. • Adding your running head and title page. • Writing an abstract. • Checking and correcting any grammar mistakes and typing errors. • Checking your references and citations. • Formatting your writing in proper APA style.

The case study will be on the following:

 Case 24: Wells Fargo Fraud Wells Fargo CEO John Stumpf testifies on Capitol Hill in Washington, Thursday, Sept. 29, 2016, before the House Financial Services Committee. Cliff Wells Fargo CEO John Stumpf faced down a furious panel of lawmakers Thursday as the House Financial Services Committee grilled him on his bank’s shady practices. Representative Maxine Waters, the committee’s ranking Democrat, told Stumpf that Wells Fargo’s abuse of the public’s trust was “some of the most egregious fraud we have seen since the foreclosure crisis,” and compared it to mass identity theft. For his part, Stumpf offered up more apologies, and said the bank planned to halt the cross-selling practices as of October 1, instead of January 1, 2017, as originally announced.”I want to apologize for violating the trust our customers have invested in Wells Fargo,” said Stumpf. “And I want to apologize for not doing more sooner to address the causes of this unacceptable activity.” Congress was not appeased. Representative Mick Mulvaney told Stumpf, “The damage you have done to the market and your industry far exceeds the damage you have done to your business.” At one point, Representative Brad Sherman told Stumpf, “I don’t think you should be alone in this joyous experience,” and suggested that the heads of other big banks should join Stumpf on the Hill to explain whether they employed the same aggressive sales tactics. “The American people need an assurance that this cross-selling mania that has affected Wells Fargo is not to be found at the other behemoth banks,” said Sherman. Representative Ed Perlmutter even took issue with the bank’s terminology. “You don’t sell grapefruit. Why are you calling these things stores? You’re a bank.” Related: It’s Not Just Wells Fargo: Disgraced Executives Who Got the Golden Axe The scandal has cost Wells Fargo dearly: More than $20 billion has been wiped off its market value, California announced on Wednesday that it was suspending all state business with the bank for 12 months, the Labor Department said it would initiate a “top-to-bottom” review to be sure the bank hadn’t violated wage laws by failing to pay overtime to sales reps forced to meet aggressive quotas, and the SEC is considering an investigation to determine if Wells Fargo misled investors. In addition, a group of former employees have filed a $7.2 billion lawsuit against the bank, saying they were dismissed or demoted for whistle blowing. Wells Fargo was hit with a record $185 million fine earlier this month for opening fee-generating accounts without customers’ authorization in order to meet the high sales goals. Wells Fargo’s independent board of directors on Tuesday rescinded Stumpf’s $41 million in stock awards and froze his salary until the investigation is complete. Questions 1. What is the ethical issue? 2. Where is the harm, if any? Is the harm justifiable? 3. If there is a conflict between moral and legal principles, what is the best solution for such a conflict? What is your solution?
