Marisa Sanchez, a brand new Associate at Douglas Private Equity Advisors, faces a dilemma when she's asked by a Senior Vice President (SVP) to do due diligence on a deal he wants to bring before the investment committee that may comprise the SVP, Douglas owner and establisher and others.
The meeting was timed prior to annual bonus season. Marisa’s in-depth findings demonstrate that the market information has been, misrepresented by her boss, the SVP and the pricing needs to be considerably less than he is advocating. He requests her to moldthe numbers, ''to make the numbers work.'' She has to decide, how and when asked in the committee meeting, what things to say.
