Scenario
At a recent get together, a longtime friend brought various types of cookies as a dessert. You had never tasted cookies of this high caliber before. Your friend never thought anything special of the cookies, given she has been baking these since she was a small child. You shared that “Cookies from Home,” a profitable company based in Tempe, Arizona, started with the encouragement of friends. Intrigued, your friend stated she would like to learn more. She would like some assistance understanding how to start and operate a business of this nature.
In exchange for a 2% ownership in the company, you agree to help her develop a business plan to start her own business baking, marketing, and selling these cookies. The plan should include the following:
Fixed costs such as equipment, factory rent, insurance, depreciation, etc.
Variable costs such as direct materials (ingredients to make the cookie), direct labor (salaries), and overhead (utilities, maintenance, etc.)
Keep in mind that you will need to determine how many cookies are in one batch and estimate the yearly number of batches to sell.
