Windows 7 Help with power point

#3 - Slide with the 3 objectives listed: Develop government relationship, build Plant 1, build Plant 2

#5 - I read it as a single slide with the 3 strategies shown

#6 - Make up some numbers for projected sales, expenses and profit (Sales-Expenses=Profit) for years 2008-2011. First year is a loss but gains in the subsequent years.

It looks like the assignment is to create a presentation in Powerpoint, not demonstrate business acumen. The objective is to show that you understand how to present information and how to make different types of slides. The example is completely made up. The content of your slides is expected to be made up as well if the specifics are not given.

#3: the slide is already defined for you: the two objectives are listed. That's what goes on the slide. You don't need to actually develop anything.

#5: one slide where you need to just list three strategies. Two are suggested in the description. Invent something for the third one. For example, "bring in a consultant" or "utilize the XYZ strategy" (one of those could be what you put on the slide). You're not being graded on the content but on making the slide.

#6: Make up numbers that follow the described patterns. You can label the chart that the numbers represent some order of magnitude (say millions of dollars). The profit column will always be the difference between the sales and expenses numbers. For the loss year, the expenses number will be bigger than the sales number. For profit gains in the other years, sales will be larger than expenses and the difference will get bigger each year (expenses will go up each year but sales will go up more). The simplest way to lay out the requested information would be a grid--the columns are defined in the question and there would be four rows, one for each year. (You will need to create a 4 column by 5 row grid to include the row and column labels.) You don't necessarily need to show the grid lines but using a grid is an easy way to keep everything aligned.

#7: just be creative. Make up points that support the strategy you pick. Why would you pick one strategy over another for anything? For example: highest potential profit, fastest implementation, lowest risk, other associated benefits...

One other recommendation: You're asked to demonstrate that you know how to do things like transitions and animations. It wouldn't hurt to demonstrate that you understand what is appropriate for the purpose of the presentation. In this case, it is a presentation to the Board of Directors. It wouldn't be appropriate to include a lot of cutesy or distracting stuff. Keep it simple and straightforward. For example, do a "build" slide, where the bullets are added to the slide as they are discussed. If you need to do something fancy, have the bullets enter from one side (only, not each bullet from a different direction). Don't go nuts with wild transitions and animations. If you're encouraged to use templates, pick one of the templates that is simple, clean, easy to read, etc.

thank you so much for clarifying, so to summarize this. First slide I put name of the company with some clip art to enhance it. 2) second slide would be Objectives and bullet 1. develop government relationship, bullet 2. plant 1 and bulet 3. plant 2 ...then let's say SLIDE 3 would be simple description situation in China that I basically have to make up right? then SLIDE 4 I can write Strategies and underneath three bullets that support it...? then SLIDE 5 I have to create chart and SLIDE 6- Recommended strategy with let's say three bullets to explain why
Did I get get it?
