Cafe Xaragua: The Calgary Opportunity

內容大綱
After one year of operations, a young entrepreneur and his two partners must evaluate a decision that will change the scope and direction of their business, an online retail store that sells fair-trade coffee beans imported from a developing country. An opportunity exists to market the product at a farmers’ market in a large city. Most of the details have been worked out, but before a final decision can be made, the partners must evaluate the product’s financial feasibility for the company’s second year of operations. If the financials look favourable, the partners will proceed with the opportunity.
學習目標
This case can be used as an introduction to financial analysis and the development of projected financial statements. Students are given the opportunity to assess the coffee industry, analyze the proposal and fit with the company’s objectives, prepare a projected profit and loss statement and a statement of financial position based on two scenarios, and then make an overall decision based on their analysis.
