You are required to write a report summarising and providing solutions to case questions for a case study.

1. First, you are to provide a summary of the case (400 words) by critically analysing and summarising the essence of the case.

2. Second, you are also to provide critically analysed solutions to the end of case questions. The solutions to each individual case question should not exceed 400 words, e.g. 3 case questions X 400 words each = 1200 words.

4. You are expected to use at least ten (10) different scholarly sources (peer-reviewed journal articles or books) to support your arguments and discussion.

For example, a case with three case study questions has a word limit of 2000 words +/- 10%.
