Case Data Files

The textbook author has supplied a series files that contain the data given in most of the exhibits in the cases. These files are in both Lotus wk1 and Excel xls format and should be readable by any spreadsheet program since they contain only data. There are also several analysis files. I think it is fair to say that these analysis files may be of questionable value, I include them because they were available with the cases.

These files are being made available without warranty as to their usefulness or appropriateness for any purpose .

Case Questions

The textbook author has supplied a series of questions that are supposed to help in directing the solution to the case. These questions may or may not do that. You are free to use these questions in whatever way you wish. In some case they might be helpful in directing your efforts. However, simply answering these questions is not sufficient. Your task is solve the case, not answer the questions. There is at one case for which I have also added a clarifying comment.

Financial Data

There may be times when information about other firms and industries may be useful in doing a case. There are a variety of sources, one that we have access to is called Research Insight, which installs within Excel. You can only obtain data will on campus (it checks the IP address). You can obtain the documentation from the download page.

Another resource that is available is Mergent Online. You can use it from off campus if you go through the Library.Portal. It will create Excel files also. There are other data sources that you might find useful listed on the Finance Department Web Site
