    Although the sales of the company have declined significantly their cost of goods sold has remained high, especially between 1994 and 1995 the company had a decline in sales and an increase in cost of goods sold. This is evidence the company is having problems passing costs to its consumers. The company is not very asset intensive and its decrease in total asset turnover can be due to their decrease in sales, however their rather low total asset turnover which is also decreasing from 2.1 to 1.5 shows their assets are not being used very efficiently. As a result of their sales decrease their Fixed Asset turnover also decreased from 7.0 to 5.4. The decrease in sales and increase in competition also means more shelf time for their inventory which has increased from 103 to 129, which makes Haefren Baum’s price cutting strategy questionable. The company is already experiencing a loss of revenue due to their lower prices; however this is not stimulating the number of different sales because the inventory is sitting in the…

    Over the three season period, the lemonade stand has shown a non-steady revenue growth. Although this growth is positive, there are aspects of the business that, if managed more efficiently, could have brought the stand a significant increase in overall profits. First, the price per cup could have been increased before the end of Season Two. This simple increase in price would increase revenues and profits for the season. Second, there was a lack of wise management towards the purchase of supplies during season two. It was difficult to forecast the turnout for each day and not enough supplies were purchased in preparation for a predicted rush of customers. This mismanagement leads to having not enough supplies; a high inventory turnover, decreased expenses due to management mistakes instead of business operations. However, despite the downfall in Season Two, inventory turnover did improve in Season Three.…

In addition there is not many variations or species of kiwifruit available on the market with exclusion of Zespri’s gold .
