• W783332113 abstract "CASE DESCRIPTION The primary subject matter of this case concerns accounting. Secondary issues examined include entrepreneurship, marketing, retail management, and merchandising. The case is appropriate for freshman, sophomores, or juniors in a core course of financial accounting or marketing, entrepreneurship, retail management, and fashion merchandising. This case will take approximately one class hour. It will not require students to do any outside preparation. It will challenge their logical thinking skills, knowledge of basic accounting for merchandisers and require them to apply their basic business knowledge. CASE SYNOPSIS Imagine quitting your secure job to open a new business on a mere $10,000 in a time of economic uncertainty. Neither you nor your partner has any experience in the industry or as entrepreneurs. You are running on blind faith that your initial capital investment will be enough for the business to survive and generate enough revenue to draw a paycheck within the first six months of operation. This case provides an overview of the operations of such a business that opened in 2011. Several things are considered in this case, including the risks of an inexperienced entrepreneur starting a new business during a time of high unemployment and difficult economic times. The odds of success are against the owner because of her limited funds, unemployment rates, and high failure rate, what the Small Business Administration calls death rate, of new businesses. With no experience in and little knowledge of accounting, it's easy for the owner to fail to recognize when her accountant and CFO submit financial statements that are incorrect and do not make sense, which happens in this case. It requires students to recognize the errors in the company's financial statement, analyze the statement, provide insight to the owner, and give recommendations. SWEET PEAS STITCHERY IN THE BEGINNING Early in 2011, Abby Adams and her best friend, Beth Rossi, confided to each other that they were very frustrated with their lives. Adams, an Administrative Assistant for a local manufacturer, and Rossi, a Middle School teacher in the public school system, found that their positions restricted the amount of time they could spend with their families. Soccer games, after school birthday parties, dance lessons and so much more had to take a back seat to their careers if they wanted to get ahead. Having to miss so many of their children's activities caused much frustration and disappointment to them and their children. They just weren't able to be the kind of employees, wives and mothers they believed they should be. They felt confined by their traditional jobs and overwhelmed by their family responsibilities. There had to be a better way. The two women's jobs and the stresses of motherhood were even starting to strain their marriages. Both were married to professional men and had children of elementary school age. However, their husbands, Mark Adams and Dave Rossi, were beginning to feel like third wheels in their own homes. Their wives were spending all their time on their jobs and with the children, leaving little energy for the husbands. Could the two households get by without the wives' income? Neither man thought so. But a way to get their marriages back on track, short of asking their wives to quit their jobs, had to exist. This simply was not the type of relationship either of the men envisioned when they said I do. Both had imagined their wives picking the children up from school, taking them to their activities, and having a warm family dinner ready when the husbands returned from work each day. What the husbands didn't know was that their wives were thinking the same thoughts, but were actually trying to do something about the common problems. Abby and Beth were meeting weekly at the local coffee shop to brainstorm their futures. They had the same goals: (1) to work flexible hours to enable them to spend time with their husbands and children and (2) to provide additional income for the family. …" @default.
