Research the fundamental processes that occur within the production cycle. Analyze how the processes will support the production cycle and financial reporting activities of your company.
If you are using a comprehensive enterprise resource planning (ERP) package, such as Systemanalyse und Programmentwicklung (SAP), specify and describe which modules will be used that are related to the production cycle and financial reporting.
Assume that you are making a presentation to a bank to secure funding for your new company. Consolidate the information you have gathered in the last five weeks into a Microsoft PowerPoint presentation and include a simple profit projection spreadsheet for at least the first five years of your business.
In your presentation, also include the following:
- Estimates of the startup costs for the AIS's you will be using
- Pricing and cost information for the products or services you are going to sell
- Overhead and labor cost projections
- Sales projections
- Calculation of the net operating income for each year
