The business case involves capital expenditure analysis for a potential project in the Wally-Mart Supermarkets frozen supply chain. There are three parts to the business case: (1) prepare a financial model in Excel with a discounted cash flow method to analyze relevant incremental capital expenditures, revenues, costs, and profits; (2) concisely communicate the financial model and business case in a business style Word report; and (3) concisely communicate the financial model and business case in a business style PowerPoint presentation. The case materials include a practice financial modeling exercise. The case is suitable for use in undergraduate and graduate management accounting courses.
