Sonsonala (A)

The (A) case has a twofold focus: (1), to project a budget for pharmaceuticals in a developing country based on the cost drivers of morbidity patterns, required drug regimens, and unit costs, and to focus on ways in which the budget might be cut if necessary; (2), to prepare a modified version of a breakeven analysis for some community pharmacies. The (B) case focuses on the financing of a revolving fund for essential drugs. The case is deceptively simple since a revolving drug fund that is either growing in size or operating in an inflationary economy needs a constant injection of working capital. This case uses some calculations that were made in the (A) case. |
