Answer preview

The business will significantly focus on selling its products in cash, especially to individual customers. However, the business will sell 25% of its product on credit, especially to groups and organizations through clearly agreed payment terms. The payment period for goods sold on credit should not exceed two weeks (15 days), but in special instances, the business will sell at credit within 30 days at premium prices seeking to maintain a steady cash flow.

The business will provide benefits to its salaried/full-time employees at an average cost of $3500 per year for each employee. The most significant benefits include medical insurance, paid time off, free food, and fitness parks (Miner, 2020, November 27). For the hourly/part-time employees, each employee’s average cost of benefits per year is estimated at $1000. The most significant benefits include medical insurance, subsidized foods, and fitness perks. The employee benefits are estimated to increase at an average cost of 6% per year.
