Assignment Course Title: INTRODUCTION TO RESEARCH Project: RESEARCH PROSPECTUS Research question/Topic: Analyzing the impact of supply chain delays on production in ABC Company Instruction for this assignment: In preparation for your proposal, you are required to write a prospectus. This document should be 5 – 7 pages double-spaced and typewritten. This page limit excludes references and appropriate appendices. The information below provides an overview of what is a prospectus and the requirements to complete this assignment. Research Prospectus Assessment What is a prospectus? A prospectus is a description and justification of research to be undertaken. A good prospectus is clear and concise. The prospectus should demonstrate the student’s control of the issues to be investigated, make clear the boundaries of the inquiry, indicate the method(s) to be employed, and describe the significance of the research. A detailed reference must be included in order to display the thoroughness of the preliminary investigation of the problem, the location of the problem in a field of inquiry, and the present state of the research in the field. This prospectus should be 5-7 double-spaced typewritten pages, excluding references and appropriate appendices. The prospectus should include the following sections: 1. Statement of the Problem The problem is a concise statement of the problem. It should indicate the need for the study, describe the issue or problem to be studied, and situate it in a broader context. The problem statement should be well articulated and supported by evidence of the problem. 2. Significance of the Study This section states the various stakeholders who will benefit from the research that you will do. 3. Selected Theory (ies) This is a summary literature review framework that surveys existing research on the topic, identifies at least five (5) of the main theory (ies), variables and concepts to be used, and demonstrates the significance of the proposed study within the existing body of literature. You could pull from theories, concepts or variables mentioned in your literature matrix. 4. Methodology The methodology section explains the method(s) to be used and makes a case for the appropriateness of using the method(s) to carry out the proposed research. The methodology should demonstrate awareness of some of the anticipated difficulties that will face the proposed project and describe the ways the project will overcome anticipated challenges. 5. Working Reference The reference is a crucial part of a successful prospectus. It indicates how thoroughly the student has investigated the research on the topic, its location within a field of inquiry, and its relation to cognate fields in and beyond the academic study of business. A good working bibliography at this stage of research is typically at 3-5 pages long. The references should contain ten (10) articles/sources, be alphabetically organized, written in APA format and all sources must be listed. 6. Appendices Any questionnaires, interview guides or other such instruments/ data collection method to be used in the proposed investigation should be included as appendices. A brief statement of the estimated timeline for completing the various stages of the research, completing the writing, and who will complete each section should also be included.

Please use this template in place of your reference list as discussed in class Full Reference of the Article Brief analysis of the Article ( about 8-10 sentences) identifying the Theory(ies) used in the article and summary of the Article Tell why the article is important to YOUR Research Topic Research Problem, and Research Question. EXAMPLE Sofyani, H. (2018). Does performance-based budgeting correlate with a performance measurement system? Evidence from local government in Indonesia. Foundations of Management, 10(1), 163–176. https://doi.org/10.2478/fman-2018-0013 Introduction: Sofyani’s (2018) study uses a mixed-method approach to provide the viewpoint of participants and closed-ended questions to quantify responses to questions. Research Question /Hypothesis; Sofyani tests two hypotheses, (a) H1: “The development of performance measurement system positively influences the effectiveness of performance-based budgeting”, and (b) H2: “The limitations of information system negatively influences the effectiveness of performance-based budgeting” (Sofyani, 2018 pg.5). Analysis: Sofyani (2018) found that Performance-Based Budgeting (PBB) and Performance Measurement Scores (PMS) when done accurately increased accountability. Sofyani determined a key feature of both the PMS and the PBB was the education of users in the local government discipline. Relationship to my study: Sofyana (2018) is helpful in my field of study as it provides an avenue of how performance match up with the budget and how you assess the performance of senior local government. This study can be helpful to the Jamaican local government as it offers suggestions on how to measure the performances of key personnel. YOU TUBE VIDEO: ANNOTATED BIBLIOGRAPHY | APA 7th ed.
