Case Method originated in the 1920s and was initiated by Harvard Business School in the United States. At that time, it adopted a unique style of case study, which was based on real situations or events in business management, in this way, it is helpful to cultivate and develop students’ active participation in class discussion. For investment students, specialized courses such as Investment Project Evaluation and corporate finance are concentrated in the upper grades, and in the freshman, sophomore phase has completed the Finance, finance, macroeconomics and other basic courses. On the basis of students’ existing knowledge structure, the course “Investment Project Evaluation” needs to fully tap students’ potential in learning and train students’ practical problem-solving ability, to cultivate students’ thinking ability of combining theoretical knowledge with practical cases, to avoid the teaching mode of “I tell you to listen”, and to guide students to think, analyze and solve problems actively.

This case involves a proposed capital investment project.  It was written for use in an introductory business finance course to present students a capital budgeting scenario involving elements of both an expansion project and a replacement project that is more complex than the usual textbook problems.  It also provides students an exercise in the application of standard spreadsheet software to a common analytical problem in corporate finance, namely, a proposed capital expenditure.

This article examines the ways in which working class participants are shamed in Czech Reality TV programmes. Previous research demonstrates that everyday Reality TV is an exercise in neoliberal governmentality and respective technology of the self, which advances the idea of the entrepreneurial self as a capital investment project and a brand. The article seeks to illuminate the process of stigmatisation of those who do not comply with these norms in the cultural setting of post-socialist neoliberalism. It builds on the arguments contending that neoliberal capitalism was implemented in the post-socialist part of Europe with higher momentum and stronger hegemonic power than in the West. The research looks at the acts of shaming working classes in three different Reality TV programmes as the dynamics through which class positions are moulded in a culture with a yet emerging class structure. The qualitative analysis of shaming interactions reveals that a working class position in the post-socialist cultural setting is articulated predominantly to excessive preservation of habits dating back to the period of socialism or, however, insufficient employment of the innovations and opportunities brought about by capitalism. Qualitative clustering of the targets of shaming resulted in four different types of self – marketised self, depaternalised self, unclassed self and (desperately) inegalitarian self – which the analysed Reality TV programmes endorse as the ideal facets of post-socialist personhood. The master homology between the genre of makeover reality show and post-socialism is detected as both systems are entrenched in the values of a complete overhaul of an individual or society.
