Ronald Rhy is the head fry cook and bottle washer at a local chain restaurant. Although his choice of career hasnt been the most financially rewarding he has always had a passion for providing great food to customers. His specialty dish is the triple fried Belgian style fries with his secret seasonings. Lately the tedium of his position is starting to wear on him and he finds himself thinking about leaving the organization to start his own business. He even has a name picked out; Rhys Fries. He is hesitant to take the plunge and leave the security of his current job but a recent advertisment he saw about an upcoming event; The LadLard Food Fair has him very intrigued. He feels this is could be an excellent way to see if venturing out on his own can work. The LadLard Food Fair is a two day convention that takes place May 29 and 30, 20X1. The event allows deep fry masters to showcase their skills and sell food to swarms of hungry customers. For a one time fee, vendors get access to a booth and are provided with cooking oil, disposable plates and cutlery for patrons. The food or any other products they wish to sell are not provided. Vendors can bring in their own equipment or rent a deep fryer for an additonal fee. The fee for the convention is $1,500 plus an additional $600 for the deep fryer rental but Ronald is currently short on cash. He is able to put $1,800 of his own cash into the business but will have to borrow the remainder from a family member. He also will have to borrow money to buy the potatoes he needs for his fries. Ronald is unsure how big this event will be but estimates that he will need 45 bags of potatoes (each bag costs $50). To cover off these costs as well as have a small contingency fund he will need to borrow $3,800 from his family. Ronald approached his uncle, Bob, for a loan as well as some advice as Bob is a CPA and has been running a successful accounting firm for many years. Bob provides the $3,800 loan to Ronald and provides some free accounting advice; Keep all your receipts and keep track of everything because this is now a business. Bob also tells Ronald to register the business as a corporation, as it can help limit the personal liability in case something happens. Ronald takes the loan from Bob, immediately pays the fees (entrance and deep fryer) and then buys the potatoes he needs. He also went to city hall and registered his business as Rhys Fries Inc. a private corporation where he is the primary shareholder. The business registration cost $100 and hes declared that the fiscal year for this organization will run from May 1st to April 30th.
