shark tank evaluation

 
Homework assignments (Individual)
1)
I would like for you to view episodes of ‘Shark Tank’ and select two businesses (one that was financed and one that wasn’t financed. The two businesses can be from a single  episode or different episodes of shark tank) and investigate about the following: 1) what types of businesses were requesting financing, 2) how did they arrive at their valuation (make sure to calculate the value of the business based on how much the owners are willing to give up of the company in relation to the amount of cash the business is expected to generate), 3) did you notice any recurring questions asked by the sharks, 4) what were the primary reasons for rejecting a business and what were the reasons given to finance a business, 5) offer some other insights (what did you find interesting, shocking, intriguing….) about what you learned from listening to pitches from the participants and comments from the sharks. Most importantly, finish your right up with some suggestions to the business that did not get the financing and some suggestions to grow for the business that was financed by the shark
