PROJECT SUMMARY

Name of the enterprise

The feasibility project name of the enterprise is E-TronicBug. The project is all

about a business which offers electronic components.

Location

The project is located at Batac City where many repair shops for electrical devices

and appliances are located.

Description Definition of the Project

E-TronicBug can help those customers for what they need especially for those

students who need electronic components for their projects. The following below are

some list of services available at E-TronicBug.

o Good quality of the products

o All electronic components were new

o Affordable
 9

Project’s Long-range Objectives

The E-tronicBug looks forward to be the most competitive shop in Batac City.

The researcher dreams of making good profit and for the continuously success of the

business. For operating and establishing Electronics Shop. These are the objectives.

o To satisfy our customers

o To earn profit at less investment

o Providing the price at low cost

o To know a fair return on the capital invested by the owner

Feasibility Criteria

The following are the most criteria by which almost every subject is being

measured.

1. The Capital – this is the most important matter in having a business. Whether

the she will produce the money by her own pocket or she will have a business

loan in a bank.

2. Recognize profit from the business – the main reason of a person for going

into business is profit. The expectation to earn money or have an income, one

of the business man tends to enter this kind of business.

3. It helps the economic growth of the area - this Electronics shop will give a job

opportunity to other people especially in Batac City.

4. Enhance the availability of the Electronics shop – the electronics shop will

become stable if it has the ability to complete to their competitor and ability to

continue operations yet there is expected risk in a business.

 10

Highlights of the Project

To pass into the target market, different marketing strategies and promotions will

be considered in this business. The researcher will offer different promos to attract the

customers to buy the products and will be displayed on the store windows. They will

disseminate flyers or make a tarpaulin in the front of said shop to promote the opening of

the shop so that the people may know that there will be a new Electronics shop.

Major Assumptions

Before formally conducting the research, the following assumptions were

established:

The initial capital is P500,000.00

o The location of the business is in Batac City

Definition of Terms

Computer - A computer is a device that can be instructed to carry out arbitrary

sequences of arithmetic or logical operations automatically. The ability of computers to

follow generalized sets of operations, called programs, enables them to perform an

extremely wide range of tasks.

Customers – a person or organization that buys goods or services from a store or

business.

Electronic components - the constituents of electronic circuits.

 11

Services – the action of helping or doing work for someone.

Chapter 2

THEORETICAL AND CONCEPTUAL FRAMEWORK

Theoretical Framework

To make the business succeed, it should be given time and effort. The proponent

of a electronics business such as other electronic shop must possess the needed creativity

so as to be able to provide quality service to the customers. This satisfaction of the needs

and wants of the customers or target must be the main objective of the proposed business.

In every feasibility marketing aspect is considered the most important in making

business because it will require discreet analysis of the business total demand and supply.

RESULTS AND DISCUSSION

FEASIBILITY CRITERIA:

G. MARKET STUDY

 Product Description

The E-tronicBug stocks a wide variety of electronics parts for

universities and other consumers.

In this business, many electronic products are to be offered as this

generation demands more of electronic components due to high number of

appliances and devices that uses many components.

Products offered in this business includes the following:

RESISTORS- a passive two-terminal electrical component that

implements electrical resistance as a circuit element.

TRANSISTORS- a semiconductor device used to amplify or

switch electronic signals and electrical power.

CAPACITORS- a passive two-terminal electrical component

that stores potential energy in an electric field.

SENSORS- a device that detects or measures a physical property

and record, indicates, or otherwise responds to it.

SPEAKERS & BUZZERS- an electrical device, similar to a

bell, that makes a buzzing noise and is used for signaling.

RELAYS- an electrically operated switch.

SWITCHES- a device for making and breaking the connection

in an electric circuit.

PCB- a device used to mechanically support and electrically

connect electronic components using conductive pathways,
 14

tracks or signal traces etched from copper sheets laminated onto

a non-conductive substrate.

 Demand

In business, market are very important factors in the proposed

business in order to be sure if has a potential to grow in the market. The

demand is the quantity of the good or service that the business is able to

buy at a given price in a given time period.

The demand of the electronics circuit supply in Batac City for last

2 years, based on my observation that the proponent did it is already a

demand especially for the students near in school and many repair shops

situated in the said city.

 Supply

The equipment and supplies is being ease to find. For the other

circuits component, Unigate electronic shop in Batac City is one of the

most popular seller of circuits component and in Laoag City we have the

Esteban here in Ilocos.

the partnership’s net income is reported separately on the income
statement.
Statement of Financial Positions- The owners; equity section of
the balance sheet lists the partners’ current capital amounts.

J. SOCIO-ECONOMIC STUDY

In this proposed business, social impacts are also considered as many

business factors can affect it.

E-TRONICBUG

TAX EMPLOYMENT

Figure 4
 25

1. Tax Contribution- The business is expected to give a contribution to

2. the government through the profit earned by the owners/partners
which is taxable.

3. Contribution to employment- opening the business decreases the rate

of unemployment though it might be a minimal rate but it was an
opportunity to help other people to have their job.

K. ORGANIZATION AND MANAGEMENT STUDY

 Form of Ownership

There are many types on how to put up a business according to its

ownership and as to this study partnership type of business can truly fit

this.

Partnership business is a specific kind of legal relationship formed

by the agreement between two or more individuals to carry on a business

as co-owners.

As partners, they will pool their properties specifically money to

fund the business having the same goal of gaining profit. Through this

type of ownership, it will be easier to establish the business by having a

greater source of capital which means the business will be capable in

transacting its operation normally and it will be more advantageous to the

business because of wider ideas in managing the business.

A partnership, as different from a corporation, is not a separate

entity from the individual owners. The partnership income tax is paid by

the partnership, but the profits and losses are divided among the partners

as per agreement of 50% of each partner of the net profit of the business.
 26

A partnership, like a sole proprietorship, is a pass-through business,

meaning that the profits and losses of the business pass through to the

owners.

 Organizational Chart

Figure 5

 Officers and Key Personnel

PARTNERS/ MANAGERS: As the owners of the business, they

got all the power to organize, design, control and plan every business

actions. Being the owners and as the managers it will be easier to

implement every plans because they were also the maker of decisions.
 27

1. Organize- To have a perfect business, it must be well organized.

The managers must establish the business in a way it looks very

neat though it will display a wide types of electronic products.

2. Design- Managers must design its every actions uniquely.

3. Control and Planning- The managers must also protect the business

by properly controlling the its employee by giving them the proper

rights and care and planning the business’ success by

implementing business strategies.

L. RISK MANAGEMENT

Every business assumes risk in its environment in order to

recover quickly in the case that certain incident occurs. In order to

identify the proper step, the management should prepare a risk

management plan and analysis.

Risk Management Plan – the plan includes Avoiding the risk by

changing the previous plans to avoid getting into a problem.

Mitigating or controlling the risk can also be used if the problem

encountered by the business can still be solve by the management.

Transferring the risk through outside parties can also a great action

to manage the outcome of a certain condition which can be done

through insurance contract outsourcing activity.

Risk Analysis – the business shall conduct an analysis that

determines the suitable plan in dealing with any kind of risk
