Due Week 7 and worth 240 points

Student life does not generally afford a great deal of free time to pursue your personal interests; however, at one point, you may have considered turning a personal interest or hobby into an official enterprise. Today, you have finally decided to turn that hobby into a business but have realized that you need start-up capital from a lender or investor.

To obtain funding, you need to convince a lender / investor that your business is more than a hobby. You need to demonstrate that you have a firm grasp of your business, the accounting practices that impact your business, the controls needed to safeguard assets, and which accounting system will produce accurate and relevant financial information.

Write a six to eight (6-8) page business plan in which you:

1. Describe the type of business you have created including:
   1. The product or service, and general staffing plan. Provide a rationale for your plan.
   2. The form of your business and the benefits it offers your particular business,
   3. A chart of accounts specific to your business, including a rationale as to the selection of each account. (Note: The chart of accounts is a blueprint of your business for the lender/investor. It should report the expected resources that you will consume in your business (assets), the sources of those resources (liabilities and equity), the sources of revenue, and expenditures that you expect to incur to earn those revenues. You may build a detailed chart that includes business units, divisions, product lines, etc.)
2. Based on the form of your business, analyze whether or not you will be required to use Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) or International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) accounting methods and how the IFRS / GAAP convergence will impact your business. Suggest how you will incorporate any changes into your books and records. (Note: You need to demonstrate to the lender/investor that you have recognized possible changes to GAAP that may impact the accounting and reporting of your accounting events.)
3. Prepare a pro forma balance sheet and income statement providing the assumptions made and support the valuations assigned.
4. Considering the value of assets (assigned per your balance sheet) used within your business, recommend two (2) specific internal controls that you will implement to protect your company’s assets and resources, justifying how each will provide assurances to management. (NOTE:  Safeguarding assets and protecting personal data are paramount to ensuring the viability of a business.  Demonstrate to the lender/investor that your assets will be safeguarded and customer information (if applicable) will be protected.)
5. Based on the internal control recommendations that you made, suggest how you will implement each within your business environment, indicating how challenges or resistances will be overcome.
6. Evaluate the impact of the regulatory environment, including the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and other regulatory requirements, on your business venture, giving considering to how you intend to comply with the requirements and the general impact to decision making within your business.
7. Use at least four (4) quality academic resources in this assignment. Note: Wikipedia and other Websites do not qualify as academic resources.

Your assignment must follow these formatting requirements:

• Be typed, double spaced, using Times New Roman font (size 12), with one-inch margins on all sides; citations and references must follow APA or school-specific format. Check with your professor for any additional instructions.

a. Research an event that has been in the news over the past 5 years that involves a conflict. Some examples might be conflicts
between countries, sports-related conflicts, contract disputes, and more! You may (in most cases) have to research this event over time, as all the information about this conflict may not be contained in one news story. If it is an event that just happened and there is no end, dont worry! You can still write the paper.
b. Please include the news story with your paper. You can either scan it, attach it, or copy/paste it.
c. Be sure to properly cite the credible source from which you obtained the news story. It MUST be a credible source (no Wikipedia, perezhilton.com, etc.!) Please feel free to email me if you would like to have your source approved.
d. Give an accurate summary of the conflict, based on the news story (1-2 paragraphs is all you will need).
e. What type of conflict is this? It is possible that this started out as one type of conflict and escalated/morphed into another type or it can be a blend of 2 types of conflict (value-policy, etc.).
f. Explain the type of conflict you have identified and explain why you feel its this type of conflict.
g. Using credible sources other than the textbook or notes, research the type of conflict you claim this situation is. This is a way to expand your learning beyond what I provide you in the lecture and what the authors of the textbook teach you. Show me that you’ve learned something else about this!
h. Utilize your research (from textbook, notes and if you chose to also use an outside source) about the type of conflict to describe this type of conflict and back-up your claim.
i. If this conflict was resolved, based on your notes and the textbook what type of management style was used?

b. The paper must be 3 1/2 4 1/2 pages (No more and no less), double-spaced, using 12 point font.
