you should, from the perspective of a shareholder, critically evaluate a specific decision made by a business organisation. You should:

consider matters such as: the financial and competitive position of the firm in the period leading up to the decision; information relating to the external environment; the rationale for the decision, the associated risk factors, and the expected results.

consider the value of the key information, theories and models that you have used to evaluate the decision.

critically evaluate the outcome of the decision in terms of the performance of the firm relative to its main competitors.
