Plagiarism : NO (100% Original work)
Description for case is given below :
This case asks students to prepare a report comparing the financial and operating performance of AT&T and Verizon. Taking the perspective of a communications industry analyst, they must also consider the differences between and implications of the companies’ business strategies and the differences between the technology and growth rates of the wireless and wireline business segments. As part of this exercise, students reorganize the balance sheets in terms of operating and financial components, calculate changes in working capital, derive un-levered free cash flow (FCF), and apply DuPont style ratios and margin analysis on a consolidated-as well as a segment-basis. Students must also consider the effects of actuarial gains and losses on operating results; and how analysts might adjust for those effects. The case was designed for first-year MBA students in financial statement analysis (FSA) and accounting classes, but it could also be used in other courses to prepare for discounted cash flow (DCF) exercises.

Case Solution for AT&T Wireless: Text Messaging
Complete Case details are given below :
Case Name :      AT&T Wireless: Text Messaging
Authors :           Vaughan Radcliffe, Mitchell Stein, Michael Lickver
Source :             Ivey Publishing
Case ID :            W11049
Discipline :        Accounting
Case Length :    16 pages
Solution Sample availability : YES
Plagiarism : NO (100% Original work)
Description for case is given below :
The case examines AT&T’s wireless business with focus on its text messaging services. The industry features a high proportion of fixed costs in relation to acquiring spectrum and building a network. Variable costs are relatively low and, in the case of SMS text messages, are very low. Pricing and margins in text messaging have attracted regulatory scrutiny in the Unites States, Canada and elsewhere. The case requires the use of key concepts in cost behaviour, cost volume profit analysis and product costing to understand the nature of the business and the profit margins involve. Many service or high tech businesses exhibit similar cost behaviours and so the case allows students insight into the management of such enterprises.
