Store-By-Store Analysis • The store by store data received from the parent company and individual stores is correct. The store data was received and plotted to gain an understanding of the overall health of each of the individual stores. See attached excel file. • In the instance where data was not received or unreliable, an average was used for that particular month. This only occurred in 3 months of data received. • The operational column in the store-by-store analysis were the debits received by the franchisor that were not profit, but were reimbursement for items purchased for franchisees. It was somewhat difficult to determine how this should be recorded on the income statement to get accurate numbers. The final decision was to create a reimbursement line on the income statement that took the amount for 2013 ($134,221) out of both revenue and expenses. This left the net profit unchanged but gave a more accurate number for both revenue and expenses. Projections • The projections were done for the years 2014-2018 (5 years). This timetable is the one softly set by the possible new ownership group to build and resell the business. Also, after five years it was felt that the accuracy of the projections could come into question. • The new franchise fee would increase from $75,000 per store to $90,000 per store. • The parent company cost to build a store would be $80,000 ($10,000 profit). The cost timeframe would be an $80,000 expense in the month that the store opened. • The purchase of the parent company would be financed with all equity. An individual or team of investors would pay the purchase price and they would receive equity in the Runway Fashion Exchange parent company. The value of the equity would increase as the compan... ... middle of paper ... ...hion Exchange could be a profitable venture--if bought at the right price. Paying more than $4.49 million for the company could be risky. However, the financial statements are healthy and point to continuing profit. Acquiring the parent company for $4.6 million (according to the base case) would yield a five year IRR of 10%. The current owner has built the business to maximize profits and minimize expenses but this model is not sustainable to grow the company at the projected rate of this analysis. A new owner must be willing to significantly invest in the legal and financial culture as well as the current franchisor/franchisee relationships. The business model itself is sound and profitable, but the daily operational work will need to be strengthened in order to strengthen the company foundation and position it for a much higher growth strategy.
Televisory analysed and compared the results of September 2015 quarter with September 2016 quarter. The EBITDA per square foot decreased by 6.8% from USD 12.56 to USD 11.70 as can be seen from the below EBITDA bridge. This decline was still better than the sharp decline at a CAGR of 8.8% over the past 5 years. However, the EBITDA per square foot decreased, the revenue per square foot increased by USD 9.60. The chart beneath shows that the average number of employees per store has increased. This will result in a better customer experience. The inventory turnover period improved from 103 days to 95 days. The below chart depicts that the average revenue per store has also improved. This shows that Finish Line rightly identified the underperforming stores. This, in turn, also improved the cash conversion cycle from 72.1 days to 57.1 days. The EBITDA margin decreased, however, this decrease would have been more if the underperforming stores were still

For the first time ever, the "Coop" is experiencing a decline in sales by 6% in 20 of 76 "Coop" restaurants even though the overall growth rate was steady for the chain. These same stores were carrying about 32% of the company's retail sales.
After these overhead costs are assigned, the costs can be allocated to the various retail stores based on their consumption of the good (e.g. the number of musical works they stock and sell).
Fourth problem- Demographic data on the two stores, Cotati, and Santa Rosa are closely related. A decision needs to be made on which store to purchase, or to purchase both stores. Can Oliver Market make a profit with these stores is the question. Also Steve and Tom need to think about their competitor best and weak strategy and who are entering in the demographic markets as well as which rivals are strong candidates to expand their product offering and enter new product segments where they do not currently have a presence.

The Body Shop International case is an interesting case study into the miscommunication of owners and stockholder interests with regard to financial conditions. Anita Roddick, the founder of The Body Shop had no financial experience and thought that all she needed to do was expand her business and the financing would take shape as she developed her business. While Anita’s product concept of a natural skin-care line was good; her lack of experience in financial matters took its toll on her business.
To begin the analysis on Krispy Kreme, the first analysis is that of the depreciation analysis. There are three different methods to calculate depreciation and they are straight-line, units-of-production and double-declining-balance (Larson, Wild, & Chiappetta, 2005). The Krispy Kreme Company uses the straight-line method to calculate their depreciation on building, machinery, equipment and leasehold improvements. The breakdown of the depreciation on property and equipment consist of land, buildings, machinery and equipment, leasehold improvements and construction in process (Larson, Wild, & Chiappetta, 2005). Krispy Kreme’s total gross property and equipment in 2002 was a total of $156,484,000 and in 2003, it was a total of $252,770,000. The accumulated depreciation for the year 2002 was a total of $43,907,000 and for the year 2003, the total was $50,212,000. To find the net property and equipment amount, taking the gross property and equipment and subtracting the accumulated depreciation is the equation used. The net property and equipment for the year 2002 would be $112,577,000 and 2003 would be $202,558,000. Once b...
A tall, glamorous runway model is every girl’s dream. Long beautiful legs, lean body, and beautiful shiny hair is what an average young woman views as an ideal image for a female. If you don’t resemble the images of those stunning Victoria Secret models and Fashion Week models, you suddenly become ashamed of your own body. It is a great life to have with the high pay, fame, drinking champagne on a yacht with famous celebrities and even being on the Vogue cover page. Fashion Modeling Industry has been the most influential source in our young women’s lives. Young girls and young women are seen eating as little as they can, even starving themselves at times to resemble those models. What they don’t realize is that they are contributing to the 2.7 percentage of 13- 18 year olds suffering from anorexia and bulimia. Susan Albers, a psychologist at the Cleveland Clinic said exposure to thin models is a great trigger in maintaining an eating disorder. When watching America’s Next Top Model or flipping through a Fashion magazine, these young women don’t apprehend that those models are either naturally slim or they are suffering from an eating disorder themselves, in other words, hostages in the dark hell hid behind those runway curtains. The growing number of young anorexia and bulimia patients, and the number of websites such as thinspiration, where girls put up pictures of their thin bodies clearly suggest that the fashion modeling industry do not at all bear any responsibility in providing healthy, realistic physical role models for young women.

Introduction Historically, multiple styles of dressing have been created during the last several decades, which played an important role in modern fashion in the UK. Everyone has a different and unique dressing style in their everyday life. Some styles are influenced by vintage styles which are attributing to the deep effects of old vogue, and another group of dressing styles are inclined into the fresh element. Despite those different styles, some of them have even evolved into the milestones in fashion history. To start this essay, it will introduce the evaluation of the first significant revolution of dressing style in the 1960s.
