· Do the calculations in Excel. Print your spreadsheet carefully and attach as an exhibit(s).

Submit your report in hard copy. The page limit on the write-up is 3 pages. You may add as many exhibits as you deem appropriate. Manage the printout of your spreadsheets using ranges, print settings, printer properties and page setup so the worksheet is not spread out over multiple pages, but the font size is still readable. The text of the report should be Times Roman, 12-point font with 1" margins.

A review of the background information is not necessary. No pages over the limit will be read, so make every sentence count!!! Assumptions should be stated as footnotes in the exhibits. The exhibits cannot present any new arguments and all must be referenced in the write-up.
