SLIDE 2 is good, states the object of research, next step should be to explain WHY this topic was chosen? what is its importance
SLIDE 3: Point one is related to research, but not sourced. Points two and three seem completely irrelevant. Also, the question of importance is not being addressed.
SLIDE 4: Point one seems related, but you should MENTION which "specific and macroeconomic factors" since you are concerned with SOME of them only. Are they the same as yours or different -- this is of crucial importance. Points two is about impact of working capital management, which is not among the list of factors that you plan to study. Point three is NOT THERE -- one should mention topic, NOT cite source only.
SLIDE 5: REPEATS what you already said in slide 2. The main question WHY are we going to do this research?
SLIDE 6: Cites THREE factors -- firm size, firm growth, & working capital management. YOU ARE NOT RESEARCHING ANY OF THESE factors. Which means that this literature is COMPLETELY IRRELEVANT>
SLIDE 7: DATA should come AFTER methodology
SLIDE 8: MODEL has obviously been copied from somewhere, but source is not cited. THIS IS PLAGIARISM. Even more, we need to know WHO used this model, for what purpose did they use it, etc. this is what needs to be in the literature review.
OVERALL review: It seems that you have taken one model from the literature and ADDED three variables to it. If this could be a thesis, then anybody can get one very easily. Just take an existing model, and add any three variables to it, and then re-estimate. This is nonesense. There must be some reason to study those particular variables, it must have some meaning or relevance or importance. It must be related to literature.
