... Type of business, which form do you recommend and why? The most recommended and simplest form of business is a sole proprietorship. An individual proprietor owns and manages the business and is responsible for all transactions. The owner is also responsible for all debts and liabilities. A sole proprietor can own the business for any duration of time and sell it when he or she sees fit. As owner, a sole proprietor can even pass a business to heirs. In this type of business, there are no specific business taxes paid by the company. The owner pays taxes on income from the business as part of personal income tax payments. Sole proprietors need to comply with licensing requirements in the states in which they're doing business, as well as local regulations and zoning ordinances. The paperwork and formalities, however, are substantially less than those of corporations, allowing sole proprietors to open a business quickly and with relative ease from a bureaucratic standpoint. It can also be less costly to start a business as a sole proprietor, which is attractive to many new business owners who often find it difficult to attract investors. Advantages of a Sole Proprietorship • Sale or transfer can take place at the discretion of the sole proprietor. • No corporate tax payments. • Minimal legal costs to forming a sole proprietorship. • Few formal business requirements. • Easy and inexpensive to form: A sole proprietorship is the simplest and least expensive business structure...

...An executive summary summarizes, or reviews the main points of, a longer document or report for a reader that does not have time to read the entire report. An effective executive summary analyzes and summarizes the most important points in the paper or report, and will often make a recommendation based on the analysis. Executive summaries are “stand alone” documents that are almost always read independently of the reports they summarize. When preparing to write an executive summary, ask yourself the following questions: * Who will read your executive summary? Sometimes your executive summary may have an “intended” audience: your professor might require you to write it for a CEO, department head, or supervisor, for example. On other assignments, your audience won’t have a specific identity, but always keep in mind that the reader of an executive summary needs to know all of the important information in the main document without reading the actual document. Even if you know that your instructor will be reading everything that you submit, write the executive summary as a “stand alone” document. * What is the main document’s main topic, theme, or idea? Most reports have a “thesis” or central point that they are seeking to communicate. Try to sum this up in two or three sentences. If you are having trouble with this, imagine that someone has asked you, “what’s this report about?” and that you have to explain it in only a few sentences. Once you’re able to say what the main...

...Business plan models Name: Institution: Class: Instructor: Date: Question 1 Business plan models are very crucial in any business organization. This is because they help the entrepreneur to outline what it is required to have a successful business. Here we discuss four different business plan models in the food industry. Each business plan model is different and designed to suit the type of business that one needs to start. The four business plan models that I am going to review are catering and ballroom rental business plan, catering business plan, non- profit food bank business plan and bakery business plan. These four business plan models are similar but they differ in different ways to suite the targeted market. One of the things that is evident in the four models is that they are all aimed at making profit. This is because the main aim to start any business is for the profits. The other thing that is similar in the four plans is that they all aim at acquiring the largest market share in the industry. This is done by implementing ways and means of attracting and retaining customers that will enable them to achieve the largest market share. The other thing that is similar in the four business models is the cultures and the policies adopted i.e. to offer the best customer service. The other thing that is similar is the business strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats (Osterwalder & Pigneur, 2013). One of the strengths is that the four models that are in the food...

...Functional Area Interrelationships [Name] BUS 475 April 7, 2014 [Instructor’s Name] Functional Area Interrelationships Kudler Fine Foods has been a successful business right after its opening back in 1998. From the very beginning, Kudler Fine Foods was able to set their mission and have been using it as their compass to work toward continued success. Along the way, Kudler Fine Foods has been able to identify the key positions that support the company. This paper will describe how Kudler Fine Foods uses those key positions and functions to work together in a collaborative process between all the functioning groups allowing for a more streamline operation. Both lateral and vertical collaboration is needed in order to keep continued success. Finally, key stakeholders are identified and a description of their role in the collaborative process will be presented. These functional area interrelationships are what allow Kudler Fine Foods to continue being successful and hope for future expansion. In June of 1998, Kathy Kudler turned her passion of cooking and shopping for fine foods into her dream business of Kudler Fine Foods. She found refuge and stress relief from her high pressure job for a large defense contractor. Hoping that there were more people that shared the same passion as her, she opened her first store. Kudler’s mission was simple: “to provide our customers the finest in selected foodstuffs, wines, and related needs in an unparalled consumer environment”...

...ITALIAN RESTAURANT BUSINESS PLAN HISTORY The location is only 1/4 of a mile away from Gravois Bluff's, the largest land moving project to put in a major shopping complex in the state of Missouri. The rent is half the retail shops in Gravois Bluff's, yet the location offers the same opportunity for sales. The recently completed highway 141 offers hundreds of thousands of local residents, shoppers from outside the area, and travelers that use this new highway. With this high concentration of customers there are no Italian restaurants in Fenton and a tremendous need for an upscale family restaurant that offers items for both the children and adults. This turnkey operation seats 170 customers and is the perfect size for a PHC family operation. With the current leasehold improvements and quality kitchen equipment it would take very little to upgrade this operation to the legendary PHC winning formula. The growth in numbers of high income families in the Fenton area is projected at over 30%. There is a need for a family fine dining restaurant in the Fenton area. PHC would be the perfect neighborhood restaurant in the perfect neighbourhood. The Pasta House Co. in Fenton will be the second location for Dennis Boldt, who has operated a successful franchise unit in High Ridge, Missouri for 20 years. The Pasta House Co. based out of St. Louis, and now has over 34 successful company and franchise locations in the United States and Mexico. PHC Fenton will have a prime location, great...

...Running Header: Service Request SR-kf-013 Paper Frequent Shopper Program The electronic commerce components of the Frequent Shopper Program are aspects of the Sales and Marketing Department’s strategic objectives to increase the loyalty and profitability of its consumers. Under this program, customer shopping trends are identified and rewarded. This in turn can support the objectives providing an inventory selection of specialty foods that their customers’ desire increasing the favorable of repeat shoppers to the Kudler name. In order for the program to be effective, customers are given a swipe card that contains their information in a bar-code format. The swipe card enables Kudler stores to electronically record the frequency of purchases made by the consumer refiguring the points accumulated during time of checkout. The point system can be explained as so for every one dollar spent with the store one point is accumulated for that transaction. The existing information technology (IT) database the company utilizes is identified as a “customer table” that has each customer’s mailing information regarding the demographics for birthdays and anniversaries. This will need to be revamped to include the points accrued per capita for Frequent Shopper’s cumulative transactions. When the frequent shopper has accumulated the specified range of points determined by Kudler, the reward(s) of their choosing can be redeemed at the nearest store location. The IT department is solely responsible...

Small Business Plan Editor: Tim Berry (http://articles.bplans.com/writing-a-business-plan/) For any start-ups, a business plan allows gaining a better understanding of the industry structure, competitive landscape, and the capital requirements of starting a small business. Normally a business plan is difficult to implement unless it is simple, specific, realistic and complete. In addition, a good plan will need someone to follow up and check on it. The plan depends on the human factor, particularly the process of commitment and involvement, and the tracking and follow-up that comes afterward. Successful implementation usually starts with a good plan. There are elements that will make a plan more likely to be successfully implemented. It includes: 1. Is the plan simple? Is it easy to understand and to act on? Does it communicate its contents easily and practically? 2. Is the plan specific? Are its objectives concrete and measurable? Does it include specific actions and activities, each with specific date of completion, specific persons responsible and specific budgets? 3. Is the plan realistic? Are the sales goals,...
