As of 2012 to open this franchise, investors are expected to have a net worth of at least $2 million and be able to invest at least $454,000.…
Executive Summary Here I have gathered a report to help the executives in my company to decide how we will go about expanding into a new juice bar business. We have a choice of buying a franchise for $80,000 which is a package deal. There are no concerns about recipes operational procedure or training. The down side would be exhausting our financial resources. Then there is the choice of developing a unique juice bar of our own with a start-up cost of $40,000. If we choose to develop our own we must take a close look at three major aspects. #1 Finance let us review the options I presented. Apply for grant funding and minimize the internal funding. Buying a franchise for double the money is unnecessary. Without proper funding choices in place, we could end up in debt. #2 Marketing how will we reach our target…

Attached is the revised hearing memo. I highlighted the portion added about “last mile” service agreements. Important to note that Claire McCaskill (D-MO) was incredibly harsh on the USPS and their “last mile” service agreements. I also added a comment regarding this issue in Claire McCaskill’s portion of the memo. I have also attached the link to the hearing, Claire McCaskill’s rant about “last mile” begins at 01.56.57, if you want to review that considering she was the brunt of “last mile” references.…
After reading the scenario, I think Dalman and Lei have a lot to think about. Before making any decisions Lei and Dalman should weigh their options. I think the strengths of expanding their businesses with two new franchise operations could save Dalman and Lei some money by working together with the new operations. They also wouldn’t have to worry about more competition when the new franchises open.…
Discussion Question: Please discuss the following: Does franchising make sense as a way to expand this business? Why do you think Brian has had a difficult time finding potential franchisees for his business (professional franchisees, not the initial student model)? If you were a potential franchisee, would 1-800-GOT-JUNK be a good choice? Why or why not?…
As an investor both of these companies are up for consideration according to increasing revenue numbers. On the inside, this evaluation will give a determination of my opinion on rather to invest in either company and in what manners one outweighs the other and reasoning for my opinion. Investing one’s hard-earned money into a company is a risky decision to make, but in return, every investor hopes for the best possible outcome in risk taken. Given financial information to evaluate before decision-making this is the best possible plan to making a positive call on an investment.…
While in competition, these two companies have continued to grow in size, market value, and profit sales. Since the beginning of their competition, both companies have ventured into new areas of sales, (such as snack foods, iced tea, and bottled water) and they continue to think of new ways to grow their business yearly. In order for both companies to continue to grow in the ways they foresee, they must have investors to invest money in the company. These current and potential investors will first look at both company’s financial statements and data, find as much information as possible needed to make a decision, then make a judgment call as to which company is the best investment at the time.…

The play “A Raisin in the Sun” reflects on Youngers, an African-American Family, who lived on the southern side of Chicago in the late 1950s. The play opens with the family receiving a $10,000 insurance check from Mr. Younger’s (the deceased) life insurance policy. Each member of the family is ready with an idea of what to use the money on (Hansberry, 11). For example, Mama has a dream of buying a house. On the other hand, Walter Lee who is Mama’s Son wants to invest in a Liquor store with his neighborhood friends. To him, investment is the only solution to saving the family from financial challenges (Hansberry, 12). Variously, Beneatha who is Lee’s Sister wishes to use the funds as…
I think it’s best for an entrepreneur to operate a franchise before going off to start his/her own company because by doing so they will be able to gain knowledge and widen their horizons before spreading out on their own.…
