would further be decreased to $ 13,932 per month. The sales of the company have been
affected due to various changes in the industry of the company.
The sales budget of the comapny explains that the market position and the turnover
position of the company would be better and it would lead to the business to the better
profitability level (Gibson, 2011). The purchase budget of the company has been discussed
further and it has been evaluated that the purchase units of the company would be 1812 in
first month and it would lead to production of 1138.2 units in the last month of the year. It
explains that the position of the company would be stronger in near future and the company
would be able to generate higher profit (Higgins, 2012).
The breakeven level of the company has also been discussed and it has been found
that the company should sales at least 17,783 units to reach over a point where the sales and
the cost of the company would be same and no extra profit would be gained by the company
(Brown, 2012). Further, the study has been done on various other budgets of the company
such as selling and administrative budget, cost of revenue budget, accounts receivable
budget, cash collection budget, cash payment budget, cash budget etc of the company and it
has been found that the company would be stronger in near future and the company would be
able to generate higher profit.
The calculations of each budget have been given in the appendix to make it easier for
the organization to make the profits and manage the performance in the market. The cash
budget of the company explains that the cash flow of the company would be positive in initial
months and it would lead to negative cash flows. so the company is required to maintain the
cash position of the company which could be better and the company could invest into the
projects and the activities of the company (Brooks, 2015).
The income statement of the company also briefs about the better performance of the
company. the income statement of the company explains that in the first year, the net profit of
the company would be $ 1804 which could be managed by the company in the next year as
the performance of the company has been enhanced as well it has also impacted on the total
revenue of the company.

Cooking Burger Shop Business plan (2018)
The business plan should be implemented by the partners in August, 2018. The
company should focus on each of the element first and the strategy should be planned before
starting the business as well as the inventory and equipment should also be managed and
bought by the business before. The business is also required to hire 2 chefs and the 5 labour
staff for the business which should also be done before the August. So that the opening of the
business could be grant and no sudden risk is faced by the company in near days (Paley,
2017).
The entire activities of the business should be completed before the August, 2018.
Conclusion:
To conclude, the business plan explains that if the business plan would be
implemented perfectly by the business owners than the business would offer huge profits to
the cafe. The market share of the company would be better in few months and it would lead
to the business to huge profits. Further, it explains that the profitability level of the business
would be better in next 12 months. The costing and the operational activities are required to
be focus by the business as it would also enhance rapidly with the increment in the turnover
