8. Because your baking trays can hold exactly one dozen cookies, you will produce and sel
cookies by the dozen. Should you give any discount for people who order two or more dozen
All costs of ingredients and boxes for each dozen are the
same. With that said, total valuable time is 6 (wash and
mix) + 2 (spooning) + 1 (set timer on oven) + 2 (packing
time) + 1 (process payment) = 12 minutes. For a two
dozen order, total time is 6 + 2 + 1 + 2 x 2 + 1 = 17
minutes. For a three dozen order, total time is 6 + 2 + 1
+ 2 x 3 + 1 = 22 minutes.
Perhaps offering a 10% - 20% discount (or set dollar amount)
on orders of two dozen and above is an option

9. Q4> How Many Electric Mixer & Baking Tray Do We
Need?
As the charts and tables have shown, the electric
mixer is idle for a long time during the
production process, so only one is needed.
Because the mixer can only contain 3 dozens
of ingredients, during the whole process, at
least 3 trays are needed.

10. Q5>What other factors should you consider at this
stage of planning your business?
 Market: Is this attractive to potential customers?
 Cost: How can we get cheaper materials with good
quality?
 Labor: Can I do this alone? Should I hire people?
 Product: How can we make the cookies better?
 Services: Can I provide other services, such as delivery?
 Hazards: How should I handle an accident?
 Laws: Am I violating any laws?
 Investment: What kind of initial and/or further
investment is required?

Question 06>
Your product must be made to order because
each order is potentially unique. If you
decide to sell standard cookies instead,
how should you
change the production system? The order-
taking process? Other policies?
