Quarter 1: For the first quarter my strategy was to be as protable as I could and what I needed to do to achieve my goal. The decisions I made was not to have a sales rep. and I made my 58m expense high. Quarter 2: For the second quarter I let my large nished goods to not have a high use of assets or low inventory costs. I still made the choice to not have a sales rep, and ldidn't do any marketing research purchases. Quarter 3: For the third quarter my company still had a high total 5&A expense. My company also had a high manufacturing expense that I thought would make me more protable. I also made the choice to have a lot of idle production workers. Quarter 4: For the fourth quarter I made the decision to have a large emergency loan and a high interest rate thinking it would raise prots. I also made my manufacturing costs high thinking it would change in helping me be more protable. Quarter 5: In quarter ve my large finished goods were still too H and I still had high inventory costs. I still made the choice to not have any sale reps. Quarter 6: In quarter six I chose again to have several idle production workers but which in return drove up my COGS. My sales forecast was inaccurate and also my low plant utilization was driving up my costs and hindering the prots. Quarter 7: For quarter seven I decided not to do any market research. I then had a large emergency loan and high interest rate.

I had low spending on my plant maintenance, and my company has a high total of manufacturing expense. Quarter 11: In quarter eleven there was little worker training I felt it would help with the stress of the workers and in doing so helping the production. Quarter 12: In quarter twelve I had large raw material inventories, my manufacturing costs were high as well and I had large emergency loan. Quarter 13: In quarter thirteen my sales forecast was off in region 1 and 2, still had little work training and my plant maintenance was also still low. Quarter 14: For quarter fourteen my large nished gods were high, I had large stockouts, low plant utilization in region 1 and 2 with high (2065. Quarter 15: For quarter fteen I there were low plant utilization in region 1 and 2. Still large raw materiah in region 1 and 2. Quarter 16: in quarter 16 the last quarter we had to do nothing really changed I still had most of the same issues in the previous quarters, wasn't really sure what I needed to do tox so I didn't end up with a positive cash flow
