1. As an entrepreneur, you are interested in expanding your business to either Germany or Australia. As part of your initial analysis, you would like to know how much minimum investment in needed to enter each of these markets. To have an appropriate estimate, you hire a consulting firm to perform an initial investment analysis.

Each answer to every essay question must be at least two pages long, 12 Times New Roman, and double-spaced.
Make sure your document is a Microsoft Word document with a .doc extension.
Essay questions must be answered in a clear and well-organized paper. A clear and well-organized essay has an introduction that tells the reader what is ahead, a few paragraphs that discuss the topic in question, and a conclusion that summarizes what was discussed. Paragraphs must follow one another in a coherent and logical order. Sentences within each paragraph must also follow one another in a coherent and logical order.
Writing a good answer to an essay question requires that you explain yourself fully. To do so, you must assume that the reader is not familiar with the topic in question. So be concise, but explain yourself fully. Make sure you answer the question.
Since the purpose of the writing assignments is to test your understanding of the material and your ability to think critically about it, your essay must also demonstrate some independent thinking. A good paper is clear and straightforward, accurate when it attributes views to other writers, and contains thoughtful critical responses to the text(s) it discusses.
You should come up with your own ideas, examples, and your own way of elaborating, criticizing, and/or defending a certain view. Merely summarizing what other writers have said is not enough.
Dont try to write a literary masterpiece. Use simple and straightforward prose. Keep your sentences and paragraphs short and use familiar words. Help the reader follow your line of reasoning by using transitional phrases, such as because, since, for, thus, hence, therefore, it follows that, nevertheless, however, but, on the one hand/on the other hand, etc. Make sure you use these phrases correctly.
Make it explicit when you are expressing your own views and when you are reporting the views of others or definitions and examples discussed in other texts. The reader should never be in doubt about whose views you are discussing. When you make such an error you run the risk of committing plagiarism.
Direct quotations should be used sparingly. It is seldom necessary to quote more than a few sentences. Quotations should never be used as a substitute for your own explanations. And when you do quote an author, you still have to explain what the quotation says in your own words.

As we have seen, our worldview shapes everything about us. In the previous unit, we examined the political, theological, and philosophical dimensions within the Greek and Hebrew worldviews. This unit, we began assessing our own worldviews (and the worldviews of our day) by learning and interpreting our assumptions and presuppositions which dictate our understanding of truth and morality. Pulling together what we have learned from these last two units, how are we to have a Christian / Biblical worldview in a world where our assumptions and presuppositions are perpetually tempted, thereby tempting us likewise to deny absolute truth and morality? The next couple of units will certainly bring clarity to this issue, but for now the tension upholding the question remains. *Small Picture* Prompt!As we continue to develop a biblical worldview in todays world, lets pause a minute to focus on but one question set within this much larger question: Using your studies from these first two units, the Scriptures, and the videos borrowed from The Bible Project, write a paper that knits-together a healthy and holistic, biblical understanding of Law (i.e. the Torah) and grace for the Christian in todays world. This paper will cause you to integrate and apply the principles that you learned throughout the past two units to a very open-ended question — As you are doing this, you will be expected to address and engage the following topics as you work through your paper:( I ) What is the Law, and what is its purpose for the people of Israel?( II ) As Israels Messiah, Jesus came to fulfill the law (Mt. 5:17). If the law has been fulfilled, what is its role today? ( III ) If the law was given to guide and shape Israels morality (leading them to become the people that they were called to be by YHWH), has grace now prevented the law from fulfilling its purpose?
(*Personal Reflection Questions to Engage With As You Write Your Paper*)( IV ) How do YOU personally ease the tension between the two themes of Law and grace?( V ) How does engaging this question expose ones presuppositions of holiness / sin / repentance? (*keep in mind that whatever one presupposes informs their understanding of truth, and likewise, their morality*)
