Case Write- Up - Due 6/29

Absolutely No Plagiarism and Original Work Only

Instructions for Case Write-Ups

All case write-ups should be presented in a 5-page report (maximum) (single or double spaced). Please answer all the questions that have been assigned as case preparation questions in the course reading and preparation guideline document. You are encouraged to attach exhibits to support your write-up.  Here are some guidelines for including material in the appendix:

    • All exhibits should be clearly referenced in the write-up (don't include material that is not discussed and specifically referenced in the text of your report).

    • If you are referencing published research/articles, indicate the source of the data. Research will be suitably rewarded.

    • More is never better. “Data/Text dump” will lead to the instructor being overwhelmed, which will lead to lower grade.

    • Analyze, do not merely repeat facts
