Start-Up Budgeting
For this assignment, you will decide what type of budget to implement for a start-up company.
Write a 3–4-page paper in which you:
Summarize the type of manufacturing company you plan to start up and determine how you will design the value chain for your manufacturing company. Describe the type of budget you plan to implement in your company and outline the budgeting review steps necessary to ensure that your company reaches the financial forecast. Select at least four specific benchmarks you will utilize in your company.
Explain the benchmarks selected and their benefits to your company. Explain the type of cost system you plan to implement in your company and identify any major challenges in implementing your cost system. Suggest a way to overcome the identified challenges. Integrate at least three quality resources using in-text citations and a reference page in your assignment
. Note: Wikipedia, Investopedia, and similar websites do not qualify as quality resources. Use Basic Search: Strayer University Online Library or the I Campus University Library Research page for your research.
You must proofread your paper. But do not strictly rely on your computer’s spell-checker and grammar-checker; failure to do so indicates a lack of effort on your part and you can expect your grade to suffer accordingly. Papers with numerous misspelled words and grammatical mistakes will be penalized. Read over your paper – in silence and then aloud – before handing it in and make corrections as necessary. Often it is advantageous to have a friend proofread your paper for obvious errors. Handwritten corrections are preferable to uncorrected mistakes.
Use a standard 10 to 12 point (10 to 12 characters per inch) typeface. Smaller or compressed type and papers with small margins or single-spacing are hard to read. It is better to let your essay run over the recommended number of pages than to try to compress it into fewer pages.
Likewise, large type, large margins, large indentations, triple-spacing, increased leading (space between lines), increased kerning (space between letters), and any other such attempts at “padding” to increase the length of a paper are unacceptable, wasteful of trees, and will not fool your professor.
The paper must be neatly formatted, double-spaced with a one-inch margin on the top, bottom, and sides of each page. When submitting hard copy, be sure to use white paper and print out using dark ink. If it is hard to read your essay, it will also be hard to follow your argument.
