The stress and strain of business

The students of 4s are learning all about the stress and strain of starting and running a real business as the Performance Assessment Task gets closer and closer. They have created their companies, chosen what goods or services to offer and started to locate their suppliers. They have looked at all the issues that surround demand and thought about how they can create demand for their goods and services. Today they have been thinking about supply and all of the complications that are connected to it. They decided that they need to answer the following questions to make sure they are totally organised:

1. Who will get the money for our supplies?
2. Where will we get our supplies?
3. Who will get the supplies?
4. What kind of things will we supply?
5. How will we get our supplies?
6. When will we get our supplies?
7. Who will we supply to?
8. How much money will our supplies cost?
9. Do we have enough money for our supplies?

They have been working really hard to try and answer all of these important questions.
