Return on Investment – Education Funding

Develop a three- to four-page analysis, excluding the title page and reference page(s), on the projected return on investment for your college education and projected future employment.  This analysis will consist of two parts.

First, explain how you made the decision to pursue a degree in Business or Finance. In your explanation, include a summary of expenses related to that decision. Also, include things like cost of tuition, cost of books, and the interest that you may pay on any loans.

Next, conduct research on your desired occupation and identify how much compensation (return) you expect to earn. How long will it take to pay back the return on this investment?  Be sure to consider the trade-off between the cost of education and the expected return on investment.  

Your paper should be comprehensive and it should include specific examples. Format your paper according to APA style guidelines as outlined in the Ashford Writing Center and include at least two references scholarly sources.
