Natalie and her friend Curtis Lesperance decide that they can benefit from joining Cookie Creations and Curtis's coffee shop. In the first part of this problem, they come to you with questions about setting up a corporation for their new business. Curtis has operated his coffee shop for 2 years. He buys coffee, muffins, and cookies from a local supplier. Natalie's business consists of giving cookie-making classes and selling fine European mixers. The plan is for Natalie to use the premises Curtis currently rents to give her cookie-making classes and demonstrations of the mixers that she sells. Natalie will also hire, train, and supervise staff to bake the cookies and muffins sold in the coffee shop. By offering her classes on the premises, Natalie will save on travel time going from one place to another. Another advantage is that the coffee shop will have one central location for selling the mixers The current market values of the assets of both businesses are as follows. Curtis's Coffee Cookie Creations Cash $7,500 $11.630 Accounts receivable 100 BOO Inventory 450 1,200 Equipment 2,500 1,000- "Cookie Creations decided not to buy the delivery van considered in Chapter 9. Combining forces will also allow Natalie and Curtis to pool their resources and buy a few more assets to run their new business venture Curtis and Natalie then meet with a lawyer and form a corporation on November 1, 2020, called Cookie & Coffee Creations Inc.
