Business Week

This week was the first week for one of the groups to go.  The first group to go was my group with Gavin and Moira.  We started Monday with two boxes of donuts and two packs of muffins.  The first day we did not get that much business because no one knew about it but we did make some money.  So for the next day we got one more box of donuts and sold out of most of them.  Then for Wednesday we bought two more boxes and sold out of all of them.  We kept the two boxes of muffins for the whole week because they were not selling and they were too expensive for the quality.  Thursday we did not sell because of mass so we gave that day to Fefe's group so they could sell their bracelets.  Then for today we bought five boxes of donuts and by today we were out of muffins.  We bought five boxes because we predicted we would sell two boxes in the morning regularly and Mrs. Ellis bought eighteen.  However, we still have some left over and we are going to sell the rest during lunch and homeroom with Mrs. Weser's approval.  From Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Friday morning we have made $122 with some change.  However, we still have to sell the rest of the donuts later in the day so we will be making more money.  Overall, we have been successful because we are able to pay our investors back with interest, raise our salaries, and still give the profit to the class for a party.  I thought it was kind of fun to do this project because it allowed you to run a "business" for a week and see how it works.  The only thing that I did not like was waking up at 5:45 to get to school at 7.
