B.MAIN LESSON
1) Activity 2: Content Notes (13 mins)

LO 1: THE DIFFERENT STEPS IN SOLVING A CASE

1. Introduction – Write an introduction where you identify the key problem and make a summary of the thesis
statement in 1 or 2 sentences.

2. Identify the problem. For example, sources of competitive advantages of Zara or the inability of McDonald’s
to provide a stable rise in profits.

3. Think about the underlying causes of the problem. Problems can vary from a poor supply chain structure to
an incorrect market positioning strategy.

4. Make an outline. This will help identify the main points when writing a case study.

5. Examine cause-and-effect relations. Try to explain why the problem occurred and which actions led to the
reason for this problem.

6. Formulate possible solutions to the problem. Think about how you would solve this problem and what
actions you would undertake to eliminate the impact of negative circumstances.

Name: _________________________________________________________________ Class number: _______


Section: ____________ Schedule: _______________________________________ Date: _______________

Christine ran a successful company providing websites and computer software which won many awards within
the computer industry. However, the company was dissolved due to a lack of commitment from other
directors. Christine decided to continue in business as a sole trader.

She took out business loans, which were taken out to fund ongoing trading and cover her employees wages.
Cash flow was poor however there was the prospect of large contracts being awarded and so Chris was not
unduly worried. Unfortunately one very large contract was badly quoted for which meant that the business
incurred a significant loss on this deal.

Christine was forced to make some staff redundant as she could no longer afford the wages, although some
had to be retained as they were necessary to complete the unprofitable contract. It was at this point that the
Inland Revenue presented a petition for bankruptcy.

Bankruptcy would severely affect Christine’s ability to continue in business as contracts are of a long duration
and she would need to be able to take deposits. It is an offence for an undischarged bankrupt to take credit
(definition includes deposits) without disclosing the fact that he is an undischarged bankrupt. This would not
have helped her business as most of the contracts were with large financial institutions. It was at this point she
was recommended to contact us for an alternative solution.
