Description
This case concerns the decision of William Burke regarding the future of BurkeAgro. After investing close to $600 thousand the venture is still "burning cash". At the same time, in order to increase sales new investments for $750 thousand are required, promising to turn positive the venture's cash flow in about a year. The case can be used as an introduction to the entrepreneur's financing problem in an entrepreneurial finance course.
