Excel Modelling case in upcoming FoF Primaries interview?

Hi, I have an interview in a few weeks where I am supposed to model a 90 minutes case for a purely primaries role and I am very confused as to what this could potentially mean. In an interview they have asked me some LBO-related questions, but I am not sure what to prepare for this. in the meantime, I am just preparing classic PE LBO cases in excel. 

Thank you :)
