Business Management HL practice: Evaluate investment appraisal evidence for strategic projects

Business Management HL stimulus: Wellington food rescue kitchen Miso Street Share is appraising investment before selling corporate lunch boxes to subsidise free meals. NPV is $31200, ARR is 13%, payback is 3.1 years, and a cold-storage unit has a long payback but reduces spoilage. Use the investment appraisal map before recommending. Select the investment method, investment data, decision, and limitation. Then answer this in your own words: how would this route improve the HL or Paper 3 recommendation for this exact case? AI will analyse your reasoning, resource evidence, HL tool use, social-enterprise or stakeholder judgement, implementation quality, and expression.

Worked practice: build the response

Work through the business response: concept focus, supporting evidence, the decision, then a reasoned judgement.
