Business case studies videos

This business collection spans transport, manufacturing and services rather than one economic discipline. A bounded case can be a better entry than a broad claim about how every industry works.

An airline cabin and a manufacturing attempt

Wendover’s airline-class explanation examines a service with different products sharing the same vehicle. Sandlin’s manufacturing experiment follows the difficulties of producing a physical item in a particular place. Compare fixed costs, capacity constraints, suppliers and the willingness of different customers to pay. Neither case should be used as a shortcut to a business plan in an unrelated market.

Questions to take into the video

Prices, supply chains and route economics change. A documentary experiment does not establish the typical cost or feasibility of all domestic manufacturing.
