Assessment Description
This is a Collaborative Learning Community (CLC) assignment.
Throughout this course, you will work in a CLC group on a strategic case analysis project. This project consists of different parts you will complete each week that build on each other.
Go to the Strategy Club website and review the “Sample Strategic Plan for Sanderson Farms” (2020) and “Juniper Networks” (2020) under the student resources section. This sample strategic plan is an example of what your completed strategic case analysis should look like at the end of the course.
Every strategy will have associated costs. Determining how to provide enough necessary capital to adequately cover the projected costs is one of the more critical steps required to keep firms competitive. For each of the following parts, use your CLC groups Strategic-Planning Template.
Part III: Cash Value
Determine the cash value of the company and create a valuation table by doing the following:
- Step 1: Refer to and follow the steps given in Chapter 8 of Strategic Management: A Competitive Advantage Approach, Concepts, and Cases to learn how to determine the cash value of your CLC groups company.
- Step 2: To construct this element of the project, it will be necessary for the team to make use of the financial information provided initially about the company as well as the information and data that you have discovered as a result of the research and assignments completed thus far in the course.
- Step 3: Calculate the financial worth of the firm based on four approaches: (1) the net worth method, (2) the net income method, (3) the price-earnings ratio method, and (4) the outstanding shares method.
- Step 4: Use your Strategic-Planning Template to complete the company valuation tables.
- Step 5: In 50-100 words, provide an overview of the analysis for how you determined the cash value of the company. Calculate the average of the four methods. State a dollar amount of how much the company is worth.
Part IV: Projected Financial Ratios
Prepare Projected Financial Ratios for your company by doing the following:
- Step 1: Refer to and follow the steps given in Chapter 8 of Strategic Management: A Competitive Advantage Approach, Concepts, and Cases to learn how to prepare projected financial ratios.
- Step 2: If you completed the previous parts of this assignment, the template will generate projected financial ratios after the team converts the firms financial statements to the template format and then creates projected financial statements based on recommended strategies.
- Step 3: Compute the projected current ratio, debt-to-equity ratio, and return-on-investment ratio. Use your Strategic-Planning Template to complete the company ratio tables.
- Step 4: In 50-100 words, provide an overview of the analysis for this part. Explain how the projected ratios compare to the prior year ratios? Explain the importance of this comparison.
