Assignment Question

GreenMove Logistics is a mid-sized supply chain company that currently uses traditional diesel trucks for its delivery fleet. The Board of Directors are planning a major strategic change for a transition to a fully electric vehicle (EV) fleet. This transition will require a significant capital outflow, the modernization of their internal accounting systems, and careful long-term financial planning.

Your group has been hired as a financial advisory consultant team. The Board has requested a comprehensive report addressing their financial objectives, technology upgrades, and financing  calculations.
