School's Outflow and Inflow Logic

The document discusses the finances of a school and responds to counterarguments. It makes the following key points: (1) Schools rely on tuition fees, donations, investments, and consultations for income, with tuition being the primary source. Limited information is provided about investments. (2) The school stated it was facing "financial difficulty", which means outflows are higher than inflows. When a business is struggling financially, it generally means costs are too high or returns are too low. (3) With limited available information, researchers have to make logical assumptions and connect ideas to analyze the situation. What-if scenarios do not provide factual evidence. Financial difficulty occurs when outflows exceed income from profits

I do get your point/s however, consider the facts:

a) Where else can a school get their finance from, if not from their tuitions and
consultations, investments and donations? Primary source of income is tuition while
the others are secondary. Coming from the source herself, the tuition was not
increased whatsoever. This just means that the only cash inflows left they can get
an increase from are in investments and donations. Donations being the families
supporting the school and the mother school from which Nuvali branched off of, and
investments which we have no information about due to minimal information. Even IF
the school is getting financial assistance from those two, it does not disprove the
fact that the school's inflow is higher than the outflow. Why? Check the next
paragraph.

b) The line"...Which makes it very very difficult financially for the school" is
the factual evidence for the last sentence above. This line indirectly states that
the cash outflow is indeed higher than the inflow. Even without possessing factual
evidence from the school with regards to their cash inflow and outflow, it is
already undeniable that when a business is experiencing financial difficulty, it
means they are over investing in something or they are spending too much in
something (outflow). Why else would a business experience financial difficulty?
Simple. Financial Difficulty = Higher Costs Lower Returns.

c) Why assume in some aspects of our research and not use factual evidences
instead? What is with the many what ifs which makes our paper dubious? This is
because we, as the researchers, have to make use of any available information we
have. As you have guessed it, we have limited information in order to have a
perfect premise, which is of course the fault of the researchers, specifically the
one who made the questionnaire. Nevertheless, no matter whose fault it is, it is
what researchers must do when presented with limited information - connecting the
dots using logic, which, in layman's term means assuming.

d) Why think about the what ifs anyway? I never stated that the only source of
income of the school is through tuition fees. I already stated them in paragraph A.
But that's beside the point. The point is that the what ifs you are presenting are
mere what ifs with respect to the possibility of something already proven otherwise
by the interviewee herself. Going back to paragraph B, a business will not
experience any form of financial difficulty if not for the presence of loss or
drastic decrease in profits which is the result from having greater cash outflow.
