Description
1. Define the PROBLEM (in one or two sentences). In this definition make sure it is clear whose problem it is, and why it is so important that somebody should worry about it. If there are several problems in the case, you must either choose the most important one or define the problem broadly so that the sub-problems are part of it. This is the most important part of the analysis, since you must aim at the right target in order to hit it. 2. Define the METHOD. (4Ps Methode) In one or two sentences explain what method you are going to use to solve the problem. A method could be interest arbitrage to pick the best investment, or hedging techniques to find the least-cost hedge, or some other theory or technique. The method is NOT the solution to the case. 3. Do the ANALYSIS. In this section, use most of your 1000 words to solve the problem. This should be reasonably easy, since you have already defined the problem carefully and told me what method you are going to use to solve it. 4. Draw some CONCLUSIONS. This may be a final paragraph in which you emphasize your solution to the problem and why it is best.
