...Case 1-1 Ribbons and Bows Questions: 1a. How would you report on the three-month operations of Ribbons an’ Bows, Inc., through June 30? Ribbons an’ Bows remains in the black at the end of the three month period given to us in the case. However, several items need to be considered to have a good understanding of the state of the company from a profitability standpoint: all monies going out (debited), and all monies already in (credited). 1b. Was the company profitable? On paper, the company looks profitable with the money it has available in the bank keeping it in the black. Looking only at the differences in the credits and debits over the three month period, we could justifiably say “no, the company was not profitable.” A total of $8,010.00 went out to cover expenses (wages, inventory, etc.), with only $7,400.00 cash coming in, and $320 receivable. The difference coming to the $3,390 ending balance, and explaining that the expenses exceeded the revenues. 1c. Why did its cash in the bank decline during the three-month period?

Where the company to have no other working cash in the company bank account, Ribbons an’ Bows’ financial sheets would show their accounts in the red.

...Case: Ribbons an’ Bows, Inc. In January 2006, Carmen Diaz, a recent arrival from Cuba, decided to open a small ribbon shop in Coconut Grove section of Miami, Florida. During the month, she put together a simple business plan, which she took to several relatives whom she believed would be interested in helping her finance the new venture. Two of her cousins agreed to loan the business a total of $10,000 for one year at a 6 per cent interest rate. For her part Carmen agreed to invest $1,000 in the equity of the business. On March 1, 2006, with the help of an uncle who practiced law, Carmen formally incorporated her business, which she named “Ribbons an’ Bows.” Normally, the uncle would have charged a fee of $600 for handling the legal aspects of a simple incorporations, but since Carmen was family, he waived the fee. As soon as the new business was incorporated, Carmen opened a bank account and deposited the cousins’ $10,000 loan and her $1,000 equity contribution. The same day, she signed an agreement to rent store space for $600 per month, paid on the last day of the month. The agreement was for an 18-month period beginning April 1. The agreement called for a prepayment of the last two months’ rent, which Carmen paid out of company bank account at the signing. Over the next few weeks, Carmen was actively engaged in getting ready to open the store for business on April 1.

...most of your friends are turning eighteen. Why not give them a homemade corsage? To make them feel even more special. How? Listen for the next few minutes and you will learn how to make this 10-step DIY or do it yourself wrist corsage. For the corsage, you’re going to need some simple basic DIY ingredients like stapler, glue gun with the glue stick, and fabric ribbon for about 12” by 1.5” for your bow. You’ll also need a beaded bracelet or any decorative bracelet where you can attach your final corsage. Finally, you need to add some decorative flowers and leaves. I think the cutest flowers for a corsage are mini-roses, paperwhites, cherry flowers or any artificial flowers of your own choice. Now that we have our materials before us, we’re going to start by gluing the fabric ribbon together at the ends to have a loop and staple it at the center to make a two-point bow. Do this with the other ribbon in a like manner. Attach the bow at the top of the other in an opposite direction to make a four-point bow. The next step we’re going to do is to take at least three pieces of any artificial leaves and glue them above the bow in a triangular distribution. Now, it’s time to begin adding in with your flowers. Since the roses take up the most space, I’ll add those first by stripping off the leaves and glue them at the top. (Whenever I gave flowers to my grandma, I always give her white roses because white roses are often used as an expression of remembrance.)After the roses are...

Gassenheimer Bleu Ribbon Chocolates is a small regional manufacturer of high-quality chocolate that sells its products via trade accounts, corporate-owned stores, and online/mail. Historically, the company has not engaged in strategic planning, as demand was greater than manufacturing capabilities. The trend toward healthier foods and the poor economy, however, has hurt sales. The owners must determine their new strategic direction. Should they change the product line, in-source manufacturing, reduce the number of companyowned stores, increase sales to retail outlets, lay off workers, or hope the health craze ends soon and the economy turns around? Bleu Ribbon Chocolates, a small manufacturer well-known in the Midwest for producing and retailing high-quality chocolates, was at a crossroads. Historically, Bleu Ribbon Chocolates has not engaged in strategic planning. Management saw no need; everything had been going fine. In the past, demand always had been greater than what the company could produce, and geographic expansion was not a goal. Unfortunately, by 2010, the external environment had changed significantly, and the current owners of Bleu Ribbon Chocolates found they needed to determine a new strategic direction. Today, more consumers prefer healthy food products. In fact, organic products comprise 8 percent of the confectionary...

...imitate and use McDonald’s as the prime example. Finally, McDonald’s famous theme “I’m lovin’ it” is directed at how much consumers love their products. In this advertisement the creator used the “I’m gainin’ it” to tie the theme of gaining weight to McDonald’s fast food. There is nothing to love about gaining weight if you ask anyone. Again, this is directly picking on America’s infamous fast food restaurant. This quote is very direct and easy to interpret, and it just ties it all together neatly like a ribbon bow on a present. Overall this advertisement is effective in a sense that it got their point across associating weight gain with McDonalds, America’s number one fast food restaurant. However, a few of the details such as the red box with the word “Weight” inside is halfway effective with the weight association. The giant “W” is a clear and effective way to point the finger at McDonalds and connecting them with the weight-gaining epidemic. The message at the bottom is the ribbon bow that ties the whole advertisement together. America’s number one go to for a quick and cheap meal is the target for this weight gain message. Despite of the unhealthy lifestyle Americans live, they will always seek a way to squeeze out a few hours here and there. One of the goals that people want is to uphold an ideal image, but still want inexpensiveness and quickness. ...

Corsets were worn to create to slim the waist in contrast to the large skirt. Necklines were commonly plunged and the lace trim of the shirt became visible. The skirts generally opened at the front, displaying an underskirt or petticoat. ‘Pagoda’ sleeves were tight from shoulder to elbow length with a flared lace flounce or ribbon as the cuff.

...breezy, summer day, and I could hear the chirping of baby birds in their nest. Upon my face shined the bright sun through my bedroom window. This day represented my birth right of turning fourteen years old, and I needed to figure out what to wear on this special occasion. As I walked toward my closet door, there was a breeze of warm spring sunflowers gathering in each corner of my bedroom. As I inhaled this delightful smell, I thought of my favorite sunflower dress to wear. The length went below my knees and it had two straps on each shoulder. The base color of my dress was pure white cotton material with medium sunflowers patterns around the bottom. I chose my flat flip-flop scandals and brushed my hair into a ponytail with a white ribbon tied in a bow. At that moment in my life, I felt like a beautiful young lady. As I stood in front of the mirror admiring myself, a loud knock rattle from the other side of my bedroom door. I opened the door, and there stood my sisters and brothers with the excitement of “Happy Birthday” roaring off their tongues. My eyes began to fill with tears just knowing that my family was as excited as I was about my special day. We all decided to run...
