SPT 700 Milestone Three Guidelines and Rubric
Overview
For this third milestone, you will submit a financial analysis of the sport organization and selected market. You will estimate capital requirements for the project, and project whether expansion would or would
not be successful based on the company’s financial overview and capital requirements. You will use the feedback provided from this milestone to refine your information for the final feasibility study due in
Module Eight.
Prompt
First, provide an overview of your selected organization’s finances to set up a description of the economic feasibility of the proposed project. Submit a balance sheet to provide a snapshot in time of the
organization’s financial situation. Next, estimate capital requirements for the project and include a budget as well. Finally, project expected future earnings, should the project be implemented, and include a
projected income statement.
Specifically the following critical elements must be addressed:
V. Financial/Economic Feasibility
A. Provide a written overview of your selected organization’s finances. In addition, submit as an appendix the most recent balance sheet along with any other financial statements you used in your
analysis.
B. Estimate capital requirements for the proposed project, such as cost of stadium rental, office rental, and so on.
C. Project whether the expansion would or would not be a success based on the company’s financial overview and the capital requirements necessary for expansion.
Note: Element V.A does not appear in the Final Project Rubric.
What to Submit
Your paper should be submitted as a 2- to 3-page Microsoft Word document (not including appendices and supporting documents), with double spacing, 12-point Times New Roman font, one-inch margins,
and at least two peer-reviewed sources cited in APA format. The sources you provide in your final feasibility study may overlap with those of earlier milestones.
