For our second free case, we present "All's Well That Ends Excel!" by Harry Gross and Diarmuid Early.

"All the world's a spreadsheet, and all the cells merely data..."

Welcome to the UK Chapter of the Financial Modelling Cup! This sample case invites you to step into the world of Shakespearean intrigue, where cunning calculations and clever formulas will shape your fate.

In this Excel drama, you’ll unravel financial puzzles inspired by the Bard’s greatest works — from tragic errors to comic twists. Whether you’re a seasoned Excel Thane or a fresh-faced apprentice, this free case is your chance to test your mettle before the main competition.

So gird your gridlines and prepare to Excel — the stage is set, and the formulas await!

This case consists of 5 levels and 3 bonus questions. Generally speaking, subsequent levels increase in difficulty. Other cases in the season may feature additional levels and can be more challenging than this one.
