The BUSI 336 Week 3 method, step by step
Set up the data before the write-up
Work through the Industry Feasibility Analysis calculations or software steps first and save the output. The written part interprets those numbers, so they have to be right before you explain them.
Show the method
Name the method and the reason it fits. One or two sentences are enough, but they must be there.
Report the results plainly
Report each result with its value and what it measures. Tables and figures help when they are labeled and referred to in the text.
Interpret in the context of the question
Translate the numbers into a conclusion about the question. Say what decision they support and how confident you can be.
Name the limits
Name the assumptions and limits. A result with its limits stated reads as professional.
Submit the files the guide asks for
Check which files Canvas expects (spreadsheet, output, written document) and that each is complete and labeled (Not set in the guide; follow the assignment instructions).
Organize the competition section as a table comparing three or four competitors on price, offering and customers, then explain where the gap is.

Model paragraph with notes
An original paragraph written by our desk to show the register that earns full rubric credit. It is study material: learn the moves, then write your own.
Four caterers serve our county, but only one advertises allergy accommodations, and none uses a dedicated allergen-free kitchen. Prices for children's party catering range from $12 to $20 per child. The gap is clear: families with severe allergies have no specialist option, which supports a premium price near the top of the range.
