PowerPoint Chapter 1 Capstone – Franchise 

Exp19 PowerPoint Ch01 Cap Want to Waffle

Project Description:

Want to Waffle is a successful mobile food business. The company was  started by two culinary students and their families to finance the  students’ college education. A year later they own three food trucks  that sell breakfast waffles, waffle sandwiches, and dessert waffles.  Street-food lovers line up around the block when the food trucks park in  their neighborhood. The truck locations are advertised via Twitter and  on Facebook, so waffle lovers can follow the trucks from place to place.  The business has increased its revenue and profits, and the owners are  looking to expand their operation by offering franchises. They need to  prepare a presentation for an important meeting with financiers.

Start   PowerPoint. Download and open the file named Exp19_PPT_Ch01_Cap_WantToWaffle.pptx. Grader has automatically added   your last name to the beginning of the filename. 

Change the theme variant to the   last one (orange variant).

Change the theme color to Red   Orange and the theme font to Candara.

Create a new slide after Slide 1   using the Panoramic Picture with Caption layout. Type Interested in   Bringing Waffle Love to Your Town? in the middle placeholder. Type The   opportunity can be yours! in the bottom placeholder.

Select the text Waffle Love in the middle placeholder,   change the font size to 32 pt, apply Shadow, and change the font color to   Gold, Accent 2.
   Note, Mac users, to apply the shadow, on the Shape Format tab, click WordArt   Styles, and then click Shadow.

Click Slide 2. Use the Reuse   Slides option to insert all of the slides from Waffles.pptx  into the open presentation. Ensure the Use source   formatting or Keep  source formatting check box is not selected so that the   inserted  slides take on the design and formatting of the open presentation.

Type the following speaker note   on Slide 1: We have a great opportunity for you to join our waffle   family. (Include   the period). 

Delete Slide 3. Move Slide 5 (92% increase in sales) so that it   becomes Slide 4.

Create a Notes and Handouts   footer with the following: Franchise Information. Apply to all.

Click Slide 1. Insert the WaffleTexture.jpg image file. Crop  the   image by dragging the middle bottom sizing handle up until it is  at 0″   on the vertical ruler. (HINT: Shape Height will be 3.75″ at this  point).   Change the width of the cropped image to 13.33“. 

Apply the Drop Shadow Rectangle   Picture Style. Set the horizontal  position of the image to 0″ and the   vertical position to 0″. 

Click Slide 2 and insert the DessertWaffle.jpg image file. Apply   the Simple Frame, White Picture Style.

On Slide 8, insert the Waffle.jpg image file. Change the   width of the image to 7.3″.

On Slide 7 convert the list to   the Step Up Process SmartArt graphic.
 

  Note, Mac users, convert the list to the Basic Process SmartArt graphic.

On Slide 3, select the text Why We’re HOT in the title  placeholder   and apply the Fill: Red, Accent color 1; Shadow WordArt  Style to the text.   Increase the font size of the WordArt to 60 pt.

Check the presentation for   spelling errors. Make corrections as needed on the slides.

Save and close Exp19_PPT_Ch01_Cap_WantToWaffle.pptx.   Submit the file as directed.

 Review the attached file. Suzie has an issue. She can either move to NY or FL and needs to review some data that her agent gave her. The agent reviewed house prices and crime ratings for houses that Suzie would be interested in based on her selection criteria.  She wants to live in an area with lower crime but wants to know a few things:

1. Is it more expensive or less expensive to live in FL or NY?
2. Is the crime rate higher in FL or NY (Note a low score in crime means lower crime)?
3. Is the crime rate higher in lower or higher house price areas?

Using the R tool, show the data in the tool to answer each of the questions.  Also, show the data visualization to go along with the summary.

1. If you were Suzie, where would you move based on the questions above?
2. After you gave Suzie the answer above (to #4), she gave you some additional information that you need to consider:
   1. She has $100,000 to put down for the house.
   2. If she moves to NY she will have a job earning $120,000 per year.
   3. If she moves to FL she will have a job earning $75,000 per year.
   4. She wants to know the following:
      1. On average what location will she be able to pay off her house first based on average housing prices and income she will receive?
      2. Where should she move and why?  Please show graphics and thoroughly explain your answer here based on the new information provided above.

Note: The screenshots should be copied and pasted and must be legible.  Only upload the word document.  Be sure to answer all of the questions above and number the answers.  Be sure to also explain the rational for each answer and also ensure that there are visuals for each question above. Use at least two peer reviewed sources to support your work.

Introduction

Before the 1950s, “computers” were human, they were not machines. The first human computers appeared in the mid-1700s when people wanted to solve big, complex problems by approximation and repetitive solutions, such as determine when Halley’s Comet would return. Scientists realized that they could break complicated calculations apart so that a team could work on them. Human computers also adopted Industrial Revolution methods such as specialization, division of labor, and mass production. The field reached its peak during WWII. As electronic computers took over calculation-intensive work, some human computers became programming pioneers.

Answer questions on Human computers 

• Why are mathematical computations important to human progress? Give examples throughout history and imagine technologies that can benefit from mathematical computations in the future.
• What was the meaning of the word “computer” in the past and how is it different from the current definition?
• How did new manufacturing strategies in the Industrial Revolution transform human computing? 
• What effect did mainframe computers have on human computing?
