Your friend, Suzie Whitson, has designed a new type of outdoor toy that helps children learn basic concepts such as colors, numbers, and shapes. Suzie’s product will be targeted for two groups: day care centers in warm climates and home school programs for which few activity-intensive programs aim at toddlers’ developmental processes. Suzie has come to you for help in getting her idea off the ground. She has never managed a business before and is not sure what functions she will need to perform to make her venture successful.
Assume that Suzie Whitson has decided to begin production of her outdoor children’s toy. Her company is Jiffy Jet and costs for last month follow.
