Summary/Abstract: In this research, we introduce four case studies corresponding to the development of four Financial Mathematics’Systems using Object-oriented Analysis and Design (OOAD). These systems were developed by undergraduate accountingstudents at Santa María University in Barinas, Venezuela. While Microsoft Excel is not an Object-oriented Programming (OOP)language, it was used by the students to develop these systems. In fact, Microsoft Excel is widely applicable in the accountingcommunity. Consequently, an exploratory multiple case design was utilized and a comparison analysis was performed; amethodology for creating case studies was developed and implemented, and finally, a conclusion and recommendations wereprovided.
