III. PROCEDURE

A. Reviewing previous lesson or presenting the new lesson (Balik-aral sa nakaraang aralin at/o
pagsisimulang bagong aralin)
Hello! How are you today? Before you proceed to your lesson, let us have a short recap about the
things you learned in the previous lesson. Answer the following orally.

1. What are the steps in preparing a pillowcase and a table runner?

2. What is the importance of following safety precautions in sewing?

B. Establishing a purpose for the lesson (Paghahabi sa layunin ng aralin)

This lesson will discuss the importance of producing quality products while keeping costs down.
This will also discuss the importance of keeping a record of expenses. Proper packaging of one’s
product is also important as it is the first thing the customer will notice about the product. Lastly, it is
important to market it properly. This will discuss ways to market your project.

C. Presenting examples/instances of the lesson (Pag-uugnay ng mga halimbawa sa bagong aralin)

If you know someone that sells product such as household linen, ask him/her what are the things that
he/she do to make the business successful. In the previous lesson, you were able to make table napkin
with embroidery/pillow case. Let us now compute the cost and see how much you can sell one piece of
the item.
D. Discussing new concepts (Pagtalakay ng bagong konsepto at paglalahad ng bagong kasanayan
#1)

Here is a sample costing.

A. Linen cloth
Embroidery thread (assorted colors) Php 100.00
Needle

B. Php 100.00 Cost

X 20% Mark-up
__________________
20.00

C. Php 100.00
X 20.00
__________________
120.00 Selling price

The standard percentage of mark-up could be higher or lower depending on several factors.
Among these is the prevailing market price of the same or similar goods in the market. How much are
they selling them? What is the quality of similar products in the market? Are they made of the same
quality materials? More importantly, are the products fast moving or are they difficult to sell? These are
some of the considerations to take in deciding how much profit you will end up with.

If you produce good enough products there is a good possibility that you will get regular costumers
Who would buy your finished products at a reasonable price? How would you monitor the production
and sales when the orders start increasing? How would you know if you are earning or not?

E. Continuation of the discussion of new concepts (Pagtalakay ng bagong konsepto at paglalahad ng

bagong kasanayan #2)

Record Keeping

To start a small business project, make sure to keep a single record of costs and expenses. This is
important particularly if you want to ensure the viability of your project. This means making sure that
your cost are kept to a minimum without compromising quality. Keep a ledger or record book of daily
expenses in connection with the project Indicate the type of expense items you are listing. The expenses
will all be added up when the project is completed. Below is a sample record of expenses.

Example:
RECORD OF EXPENSES/PRODUCTION
Date Item/s Quantity Amount Remarks
Aug 1, 2017 Oil for sewing 1 bottle 35.00 Maintenance
machine
Aug 2, 2017 Tricycle to crafts 15.00 one way x 30.00 Transportation
store 2
Aug 2, 2017 Fabric thread 1 yard 100.00 Materials
1 spool 20.00
Aug 6, 2017 Plastic 1 pack 50.00 Packaging
cardboard 1 pack 25.00
Aug 8, 2017 Printing of flyer 1 copy 10.00 Marketing
photocopy of 10 copies x 2 20.00
 flyer

Make sure to keep your record book updated. List down expense items as they are incurred so
you will not forget them. Be specific in listing down items. Keep receipts and file them in a folder or
envelope.

Packaging

Sometimes special packaging materials are used to keep the items being sold in good condition
all the time. It keeps out dirt and moisture while the items are kept in storage until they are sold.
Common packaging materials are made out of paper, plastic, cardboard, or even indigenous materials
such as local fibers like, sinamay. Here are some creative ways to package household linens.

F. Developing mastery (Paglinang sa kabihasnan)

Questions:
1. How do you compute for the costs, sales and gains for household linen products?
2. How do you market a product to gain customers?

G. Finding practical applications of concepts and skills in daily living (Paglalapat ng aralin sa pang
araw-araw na buhay)

Direction: Try to create of your own record keeping. You have made your own project plan in your previous
lesson. Estimate the price of the materials that you need in creating your project.

H. Making generalizations and abstractions about the lesson (Paglalahat sa aralin)

REMEMBER: Your hobby in sewing can give you a profitable livelihood. Household linens with
appealing design may attract a number of customers. To maximize this potential, you have to offer it to
other people and use special packaging for added value.

I. Evaluating learning (Pagtataya ng Aralin)

Direction: Given the following capitals and mark-ups, compute for the gain and selling price.
 1. 1,500.00 x 20% =

2. 2,000.00 x 15% =

3. 5,000.00 x 30% =

4. 500.00 x 10% =

5. 750.00 x 12% =

J. Additional activities for application or remediation (Karagdagang Gawain para sa takdang-aralin/ o

remediation)

Directions: Go back on the activity that you had in letter G. You can now compute the total expenses of
your projects and compute the selling price.
