BAM 105 Introduction to Business
Writing Assignment for Unit One
Include your name, student number, course number, course title and unit number with your writing assignment.
Begin each writing assignment by identifying the question number you are answering followed by the actual question itself (in bold type).
Use a standard essay format for responses to all questions (i.e., an introduction, middle paragraphs and conclusion).
Responses must be typed double-spaced, using a standard font (i.e., Times New Roman) and 12 point type size.
Word count is NOT one of the criteria that is used in assigning points to writing assignments. However, students who are successful in earning the maximum number of points tend to submit writing assignments that fall in the following ranges:
Undergraduate courses: 350 – 500 words per question. Graduate courses: 500 – 750 words per question. Doctoral courses: 750 – 1000 words per question.
Plagiarism
All work must be free of any form of plagiarism. Put written answers into your own words. Do not simply cut and paste your answers from the Internet and do not copy your answers from the textbook. Be sure to refer to the course syllabus for more details on plagiarism and proper citation styles.
Please answer ONE of the following:
1. What is required for perfect competition to exist, and what principles must be in place to achieve those conditions?
2. How is the U.S. economy affected by small businesses?
3. Why should companies conducting international operations be concerned about exchange rate fluctuations?
