The written case analysis should not exceed 1 typed page (single-spaced) and is required for the groups assigned (on a first-come, first-served basis) for a specific day to conduct a full presentation. Up to 4 pages of appendices and tables may be attached. For each case analysis, questions may be provided to guide your analysis or questions may be a part of the case itself. Include relevant information from the case(s) to support your recommendations. Analyses should be typed (12 pt. Times New Roman, single-spacing with double-spacing between paragraphs, one-inch margins). There is no set structure for your case analysis. However, a good general approach is: 1) to provide a summary of your recommendation; 2) to summarize the major issue/purpose of the case; and 3) to provide a compelling discussion of the analyses that led to your recommendation. Use sub-headings. A sample will be provided in class.
