Question 3: How big is the grey market in Germany?

Hello All,

I was wondering why the market size in Question 3 is calculated as €3,050 M? I'm getting to the result €2,950 M (€900 M + €800 M + €200 M + €400 M + €300 M + €200 M + €150 M = €2,950 M). 

Thanks for your support. 

Kind regards, 
Lukas

Hi Lukas,

Well spotted - there was a mistake in the exhibit.

I've seen that Valentine and the PrepLounge team have already taken care of it.

If you would like a more detailed discussion on how to best prepare for your upcoming Bain interviews, please don't hesitate to contact me directly.

Best,

Hagen

Hello Lukas, 

you are right with your calculations. There was a flaw in exhibit 2, which we just corrected and adjusted the calculations correspondingly. 

Thank you for your feedback and it seems you are ready for your case interview at Bain! ?
