In 2002 a price war broke out between McDonald’s, Burger King, and other USA fast-food hamburger restaurants. This Case Simulation offers a case study of those market dynamics and suggests questions for class discussion. A software simulated replica of the 2002 fast-food hamburger market is then presented. Students are asked to use the provided data analytics tools to analyze the simulation and answer pertinent questions of interest to the business leaders involved. A final challenge asks students to extend the market simulation to test an outstanding hypothesis.
