Case Study #1 (Pge. 35)
1. Prior to starting EET, what types of things did Michael and Sheena do to help themselves build entrepreneurial knowledge/skills?
- Everything grew from their small actions. They started seeking bulk purchases from schools and other youth organizations. They also started talking to groups of students when they school purchased books. They then realized that people would pay them to speak whether they purchased a book or not. They started charging for their speaking appearances. Michael and Sheena started building relationships with people in the market and helped them understand their customers’ needs and wants.
2. What motivated Michael and Sheen to start EET?- What motivated them to start EET was that they needed to get more profits to support them full time. They thought by selling more books to schools and youth groups will help them get more income. At the end, they started speaking as guest speakers and eventually EET was launched.
3. How did they determine that EET was a sound idea? Did they use a feasibility analysis? What ideas did they discard before deciding on EET?- They tried selling their ideas in a market place whether they could sell it. - Michael and Sheena used the “Economic of one unit”.
- They started slowly, with scaled down version of the program.
- They applied the entrepreneurial mindset to varieties of career book lines.
4. What are the key messages that the EET delivers to prospective entrepreneurs?
- Entrepreneurships
- Dream action (the entrepreneurial mindset).5. Is the EET a business model that would be conductive to franchising? Why or why not?
- I think yes because, EET is still growing and I think the two owners of EET has great ideas and I think EET will keep on growing and expand globally. The franchise will not be as expensive because their business plans are mostly the use of PowerPoint’s presentation slides and they make it simpler and easy to adjust their plans.
6. EET is a family

    Assignment 5 (30 points) 1. (5 points) Compute the longitudinal and transverse stiffness E1, E2 of an S-glass epoxylamina for a fiber volume fraction Vf = 0.7, using the properties from attached Tables. 2. (5 points) Plot the longitudinal stiffness E1 of an E-glass/nylon unidirectionally reinforced composite, as a function of the volume fraction Vf of fiber. Use the properties from attached Tables. 3. (5 points) Plot the longitudinal tensile strength of an E-glass/epoxy unidirectionallyreinforced composite, as a function of the volume fraction of fiber, assuming tensile strength follows a volume rule of additivity. Use the properties from attached Tables. 4. (5 points) What is the maximum volume fraction of spherical fillers that could be obtained in the particle-reinforced composite assuming cubic packing? Please show the step. 5. (4 points) Using the Takayanagi model and assuming uniform strain in the matrix, derive a relationship for the transverse, tensile compliance of a unidirectionally-reinforced composite. 6. (6 points) Two test specimens have the same Young’s modulus in tension. However, one of the specimens is homogeneous while the other one has two layers with one layer stiffer than other layer. How will the flexural modulus of the two specimens differ? Explain. (Hint, use Parallel and Series model to calculate the modulus to compare them. Assume the modulus of stiff material is 1X109MPa as and the modulus of soft material is 1X108 , and the volume fraction of each one is 0.5) Properties will be used for solving above problems: The modulus of S-glass is 85.5 GPa, the modulus of E-glass is 72.4 GPa, the modulus of Epoxy is 3.5 GPa and the modulus of polyamide (nylon) is 3.0 GPa. The tensile break strength of E-glass is 2.4 GPa and that of epoxy is 45 MPa. The break strain for E-glass and epoxy is 2.6% and 1.28%, respectively.…

    Since the age of 7 years old, I have been a participant of the benevolent organization Junior Achievement. My earliest memory of being a participant of Junior Achievement is when Mr. Michael Troutman visited the Boys & Girls Club of Trenton/Mercer County in 2006.Mr. Troutman taught a lesson about entrepreneurship and I was immediately compelled to learn, when he mentioned how successful entrepreneurs make a lot of money. Using what I had learned from the lesson, I started a candy business. I ran the candy business from June to late August and made a very satisfying profit. Ever since Mr. Troutman came to the Boys & Girls Club, I have stayed involved in Junior Achievement.…
