...SWOT Analysis BUS/210 The business plan I chose to do a SWOT analysis on, is a desert bakery business plan called Rutabaga Sweets. This is a very well written business plan that was obviously thoroughly thought out. Rutabaga Sweets is a desert bar and bakery located in Washington DC. This bakery has an interesting twist on what people may think of a normal bakery. I will be conducting a SWOT analysis by providing information about the business’s strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats. It will explain the health of the business, problems the business venture may face, as well as, ideas that might improve this business venture. Some strengths in this business venture are, it is a sole proprietorship. Which means there is only one owner, and they are responsible for any liabilities, or cash made by this business. Another strength to this business, is that it is not just a regular bakery. Customers can go in and eat there, and watch their food be prepared, or customers can call in and pre-order deserts for parties and things. This bakery also, offers cooking classes and clubs. These strengths will attract customers, and create many sales. Opportunities in this business are, Washington DC has the perfect climate for a business like this, and Washington DC residents spend more money dining out than anywhere else in the country. Therefore, Rutabaga Sweets should have plenty of opportunity. Washington DC may have a lot of bakeries, ice cream shops, and coffee places...

...Capacity Needs Biddy’s Bakery was started as a hobby for Elizabeth and her friends and not with the intent to be a big business. Elizabeth’s business had a slow start and operated at a loss for the first few years. When Elizabeth moved her business into a larger building, she did not consider decreases in future profits and customers. When business started out to be slow and then increased slowly, Elizabeth should have taken that as a sign not to be too aggressive in her approach to obtain more space. It would have been a different situation if business would have increased consistently from the time it became known. The expansion to the storage area in the initial location of Biddy’s was a smart decision. It allowed there to be extra space while not taking too much of a risk. “Capacity planning is the process of projecting future capacity needs based on current company use and industry trends. For example, the gradual increase of a production workforce in response to an increase in product demand is capacity planning. A company invests significant resources into capacity planning, including the purchase of new equipment and the leasing of new facilities. Understanding the advantages of capacity planning can help justify the costs” (Anderson). The following are elements that Elizabeth should have considered when evaluating capacity needs before moving into the larger facility: Monitor Costs If Elizabeth would have taken into account facilities, personnel...

... Type of business, which form do you recommend and why? The most recommended and simplest form of business is a sole proprietorship. An individual proprietor owns and manages the business and is responsible for all transactions. The owner is also responsible for all debts and liabilities. A sole proprietor can own the business for any duration of time and sell it when he or she sees fit. As owner, a sole proprietor can even pass a business to heirs. In this type of business, there are no specific business taxes paid by the company. The owner pays taxes on income from the business as part of personal income tax payments. Sole proprietors need to comply with licensing requirements in the states in which they're doing business, as well as local regulations and zoning ordinances. The paperwork and formalities, however, are substantially less than those of corporations, allowing sole proprietors to open a business quickly and with relative ease from a bureaucratic standpoint. It can also be less costly to start a business as a sole proprietor, which is attractive to many new business owners who often find it difficult to attract investors. Advantages of a Sole Proprietorship • Sale or transfer can take place at the discretion of the sole proprietor. • No corporate tax payments. • Minimal legal costs to forming a sole proprietorship. • Few formal business requirements. • Easy and inexpensive to form: A sole proprietorship is the simplest and least expensive business structure...
