Capstone: advising Wexcombe Fabrics on a supply dispute
Wexcombe Fabrics is an invented textile company. A supplier, Orrin Yarns, delivered a large order of dyed yarn that Wexcombe says was defective and not what was agreed. Wexcombe wants to claim about 120,000 for the lost order and the cost of replacement, and is considering suing in the commercial division of the Rowan District Court. Its finance director, Ms Adeyemi, wants answers to four questions: Will we win? How long will it take? What is it worth? Should we settle if Orrin offers 40,000? You have a table of 36 comparable supply claims that the firm collected from the court’s records and its own files, and a record of your team’s past forecasts. Everything here is invented. Use the tools of the course to answer, and write a memo to Ms Adeyemi that tells her the truth about the numbers and their limits.
