Final Team Exercise:
Your final assignment will be to analyze and propose controls for a B2B credit approval process for the company, Charlie’s Biscuit House. As a team, you will work on this project throughout the week and then present your team’s work on the last day of class. For the first two days of class you have little to do but gain a good understanding of how credit is used in the B2B sector of the economy.
