Carter Dicks
Carter Dicks is a successful UK house builder operating in the Midlands building
retirement homes. It hopes shortly to obtain a listing on the Alternative Investment
Market (AIM).
Carter Dicks uses a formal scheme of long range planning and the Finance Department is
currently charged with producing an updated five year plan. At a recent meeting the
following estimates emerged.
Sales in the year just ended (December 2014) were £10 million and sales forecasts for the
next 5 years are £10.6m, £11.4m, £12.4m, £13.6m, £15.0m.
The current rate of net profit after tax to sales is 10%, and this rate is expected to
continue throughout the planning period.
The asset turnover (Sales : Capital Employed) currently 0.8 times, will continue more or
less constant, given management’s expectations about the required expenditure on fixed
assets and investments in working capital.
It was agreed by the Board at the meeting that:
If profits rise dividends should rise by at least the same percentage and the current
dividend payout ratio of 50% should be maintained.
The ratio of debt to long-term funds (debt plus equity) should be kept at the current
industry average of 30% which happens to be the current gearing level of the company.
New share capital should only be raised as a matter of last resort.
Other information:-
In 2014 the net operating profit before tax was £1.475m and the net operating profit after
tax was £1.18m.
Corporation tax is 20% and the after tax cost of long term borrowing is 6%

please,check website : The conversation ” health check” this is important for structure. Also, I will send articles.

Instruction:
Article your final submission will be an article written in the style of a “Health Check” article for The Conversation, a news/commentary blog.
There are numerous examples of these articles on The Conversation website that will guide you in writing your final piece. In writing your article, please keep in mind the following:
• Structure: your article should have a beginning, middle and an end. It should state what the topic/problem/issue is what the background or debates or controversies are, and come to some summary/conclusion.
• Brevity: this article is only 900 words in length. Concise expression is critical. Handy hint: write your article, and then edit your article to remove unnecessary words, phrases and/or paragraphs.
• Informative: your article should inform the reader about the topic, not confuse them (or bore them)
. • Audience: this article is intended for a “lay” audience – that is, a non-expert audience who do not necessarily know a great deal about the topic in question.
Avoid technical terms (unless you define them) and unusual/unnecessarily long words.
Remember: long/unusual words plucked from the thesaurus do not necessarily improve your writing.
As per standard academic integrity requirements (see the unit outline and ACU policy), plagiarism and collusion are strictly prohibited; your submission must be your own work.
This does not preclude you from having another person read and comment on your work. As this is intended for a general audience, you are encouraged to “test” your work out by having another person (family, friend) read your work and provide you with feedback. Did they understand what it was saying about the topic?

Referencing
Please refer to the information above about referencing and use of APA6.
In-text citations will be used in your final article. The Conversation website references information using hyperlinks; these hyperlinks are placed in the text where the source is being cited.
While your article will use APA6 and not hyperlinks, the placement of the hyperlinks in the published articles provides a useful guide about where in-text citations may occur in a written piece.
For example, consider this passage from a recent Health Check article by Dr Amanda Salis of the University of Sydney (“Health Check: how to work out how much food you should eat”, The Conversation, posted 2 February 2015):
While some prediction equations may be slightly better than others, none of them can tell you exactly how many kilojoules you need to consume to maintain your weight.
That’s because no prediction equation can take your genetic make-up, which may impact how fast or slow you churn through kilojoules, into account.
The hyperlink embedded into the text is to the following journal article (in APA6): Frankenfield, D., Roth-Yousey, L, & Compher C. (2005).
Comparison of predictive equations for resting metabolic rate in healthy non-obese and obese adults: a systematic review.
Journal of the American Dietary Association 105(5): 775-89. doi:10.1016/j.jada.2005.02.005
This information would appear in the list of references; using APA6 in-text citations, the above passage would appear as follows:
While some prediction equations may be slightly better than others (Frankenfield, RothYousey, & Compher, 2005), none of them can tell you exactly how many kilojoules you need to consume to maintain your weight. That’s because no prediction equation can take your genetic make-up, which may impact how fast or slow you churn through kilojoules, into account.
Purpose: To introduce students to academic writing conventions (referencing), use of evidence and communication of public health concepts/topics to wider audiences.
