You have had the opportunity to work on and finalise the budgetary calculations for the Bluewater Football Association.
Take the role of Marge Stewart.
Provide a report to the five other members of the BFA on the case for establishing a varsity team for players aged 17 and 18.
In your report you should highlight to the other directors what you believe to be the key points which emerge from your budgetary analysis and make whatever recommendations you consider appropriate. Those recommendations must be fully supported by appropriate budgetary and financial analysis. (The detailed budgets should be included as an Appendix and are not included in the word count). Remember the budgetary calculations are an important tool to be used in reaching a decision but they do not provide the answer – that is your job. You need to think about the wider institutional context in which the organisation sits and to explain and justify your advice.
