This is not enough for Kelly to earn a salary superior to what she does now, but she may be able to improve the restaurant's business in order to make that happen. Doubling the market share -- by driving a good dinner service, for example, or breakfast -- would allow Kelly to have a pre-tax profit in excess of $58,000.
Possibility C. is interesting. Initially, there appears to be a profit of at least $20,000 per year ($44,384 with double market share), but this does not include rent because there is no site for this option yet. Also, this profit level does not include principle repayments on the loan. Additionally, this is a pre-tax number, so again Kelly would make more money in her current position. />

3. There is a significant amount of additional information that Kelly needs before making this decision. She needs clarity about what she wants to do with a restaurant, and should base her cost projections on that. For Option B, she needs to know how much work the current owner does there -- she will need to take over that work. Kelly also must consider that the franchise does not yet have site, so there are additional costs that have not been included yet. Kelly needs to have a better sense of how much work restaurant owners actually put in, because she seems to think this will be a part-time job. She is also nervous about interference from the franchise, yet it is their expertise that she is paying for, so it is recommended that she learn more about the franchise ownership business before making a decision about that option. Kelly will also need to boost her knowledge of the market, of the regulatory environment and a number of other operational areas before making this decision. It is not that she cannot do it, but she needs to know what she is getting into, and right now this does not seem to be the case.

Kelly has made many assumptions that Pat does not know anything about how the iScanner product works and the basics of quality control. He thinks that Pat is trying to undermine him by talking to one of his programmers and appears to be basing, in part, some of the requirements for the retail product on products used at airports that may require higher security features. Pat assumes that Kelly and his
He states that "there is never, within Scripture itself, an attempt to prove the existence of God; if proving God's existence were demanded of all believers; one might expect to find at least one of the believers in the Bible discussing theistic arguments." (Clark, unknown). However, Clark does acknowledge that Scripture contains many examples of God proving that He, rather than the false Gods worshipped by people during biblical
Administrative Agencies and Due Process In 1866, the Civil Rights Act was ratified. This was in response to the tremendous amounts of pressure that nation was experiencing in the aftermath of the Civil War. As, Congress wanted to: protect the rights of former slaves and individuals who were deprived of them. Where, it gave citizens the ability to sue organizations and individuals that were engaging in actions that were designed to
Although the causative organism was rapidly identified (salmonella), and its introduction into the food chain proved to be a key factor, the scale of the outbreak was the result of an interaction of other factors. As with a major aircraft accident, none of the factors alone would have caused the near disaster that occurred. (Burslem, Kelly, & Preston, 1990, p. 40) This is a very useful reminder that airline disasters
Development of a Nursing Peer Review Process at Cypress Fairbanks Medical CenterTask 1: Project ProposalClinical/Organizational ProblemThe need for establishing a nursing peer review (NPR) process has been identified by researchers in the healthcare industry (Bergum, Canaan, Delemos et al., 2017). Cypress Fairbanks Medical Center currently has no NPR process in place and thus has no means by which nurses can receive peer evaluation when a patient care problem has been
