Abstract

This case study is designed for use in undergraduate business courses. The primary use of this case study is to help students determine whether the profitability of the business in question over the last twelve years justifies the purchase of additional contiguous property to expand and to support future growth. To conduct this evaluation and make a recommendation, students will need to utilize the principles learned in their economics and accounting courses and be familiar with spreadsheet software. The case has a difficulty level of two to three and is appropriate for junior or senior-level undergraduates taking an Entrepreneurship or Small Business Management course. The case should require approximately half an hour of class time to summarize and three to four hours of outside student preparation.
