Boston University Weyerhaeuser Co & Willamette Industries Case Studies

1. Case papers should address the key issues that pertain to the financial strategy and then make clear recommendations with as much support as possible.

2. Papers should be organized into specific sections. For example, Background(briefly introduce the background of the case), Key Issues(Analyze the key issues of the consolidation), Recommendations with support(What choice to make and why). Keep the Introduction short and don’t be so quick to jump to the recommendation. If the issues are wrong, the recommendation can’t be correct.
