Natalie, too, would like to know if the company has been profitable or not during November. Natalie realizes that in order to determine Cookie Creations’ income, she must first make adjustments. Natalie puts together the following additional information. 1. A count reveals that $35 of baking supplies were used during November. 2. Natalie estimates that all of her baking equipment will have a useful life of 5 years or 60 months and no salvage value. (Assume Natalie decides to record a full month’s worth of depreciation, regardless of when the equipment was obtained by the business.) 3. Natalie’s grandmother has decided to charge interest of 6% on the note payable extended on November 16. The loan plus interest is to be repaid in 24 months. (Assume that half a month of interest accrued during November.) 4. On November 30, a friend of Natalie’s asks her to teach a class at the neighborhood school. Natalie agrees and teaches a group of 35 first-grade students how to make Santa Claus cookies. The next day, Natalie prepares an invoice for $300 and leaves it with the school principal. The principal says that he will pass the invoice along to the head office, and it will be paid sometime in December. 5. Natalie receives a utilities bill for $45. The bill is for utilities consumed by Natalie’s business during November and is due December 15. Instructions Using the information

If I were a proud owner of a new bakery shop, it would be called Eva’s Pastries. My bakery would be opened within a school district on Staten Island. The location of my bakery would play an important factor to my target market; the reason why I chose to open it within a school district is to attract the age range of the students attending the schools, as well as the parents of the students. The convenience of my bakery being opened within the school’s range is to provide the students a place near their school to grab some quick food to eat nearby for breakfast or a snack. In addition, my bakery would have different varieties of bread and cakes for the students to grab to go and also dine in for individuals to sit in to enjoy their pastries.
We were happy that the Student Council approved our proposal and gave us $150 to spend on our baked goods. After our meeting with Graduate Assistant, Farah, Kirsten drove us to the Big Y to buy our supplies. We brought different color of sugar sprinkles, frosting and baking sheet, foil, cookie mix and brownie mix. It took us approximately 30 minutes to gather all our supplies and go to the register. When the total was over our budget ($150), we were astonished. We did not buy anything that was too expensive, every item was under $5. We did not expect the total cost of everything to exceed over $150. We decided to buy all the supplies, even if it meant that we have to pay extra from our pockets. Later, we sorted out the supplies for team one and team two. Justine, Luke and I planned to bake sugar cookies, and brownies in the Maywood kitchen while Kirsten and Jessi planned to bake cake pops and chocolate chip cookies in the Dodd kitchen.
