due to its flavorful and fragrant aroma. The goal of the team is to offer

CROOK8 has opted for a direct-to-consumer distribution channel,


allowing them to connect directly with their customers and maintain
control over the entire selling process. This strategy eliminates
intermediaries, streamlining operations and fostering stronger customer
relationships. As depicted in the accompanying illustration, the process
begins with CROOK8's production team meticulously crafting their
signature Potato Croquettes. From there, the product reaches the
customer via two routes:

1. Stall Sales: Consumers visit CROOK8's stall, located at Max Y.


Suniel St., Carmen, Cagayan de Oro City, where they can directly
purchase and receive the product.
2. Door-to-Door Sales: For customers within the target market of
PHINMA-Cagayan de Oro College, CROOK8 employs dedicated staff
who market the product directly at its source. This targeted

29 | C R O O K 8
approach ensures personalized service and convenience for
students and faculty.

Throughout the distribution process, the company adheres to strict


hygiene protocols, prioritizing the health and safety of both its employees
and customers. This commitment is evident in the meticulous sanitation
procedures followed during both stall sales and door-to-door deliveries.
By eliminating intermediaries and engaging directly with their target
market, CROOK8's direct distribution strategy fosters transparency,
builds trust, and allows them to adapt quickly to market changes. This
approach ultimately empowers them to deliver a superior customer
experience and achieve their business goals.

Source of Financing

In the business world, source funding has a significant impact on


cash flow, sales, and profit projections. It is an internal function that
enables a business to raise all the capital required to enter the market.
Furthermore, any company needs sufficient funding to cover all project
costs and still make a profit.

The total project cost of CROOK8 company is ₱8,100.65. Given


that the company is a general partnership form of business, each of the
partners contributed an equal and fair amount as a source of financing
since the company is still at its starting level.

The following are the owners of this business, and each of them
contributes an amount of ₱320.00. The money is then multiplied by
twenty-six (26), as for the general partners of the company. The result is
₱8,320.00, and it will be used as a starting capital for the business.

Sales Forecast

This section shows the computation of the expected demand for


the product according to the results of the market study and the market
competition analysis. The forecast of quantity sold for the next 5 years is
also computed and presented in table form.

Question in Number 3

Are you willing to spend 45php to buy this combo snack?

Yes___ No___

Yes - 93% of the total respondents are willing to buy the combo snack.

478 - Total population in the area.

8 - Existing business with the same or related to the product.

Expected Demand = 478/8 x 93%

= 56 daily demands

Product Yields = 56 sets

 Due to the consumer’s other purchasing options because of the


competitors, CROOK8 will only produce 20% of the daily demands
that the sale forecast indicated which is 45 set.
 And, the company will divide its sales forecast relating to the
expected demands of the customers. The company’s forecasted
sales in the 1st year of operation will have no increase. And, it will
provide a 10% increase in demand for the 2nd year, 20% increase
for 3rd year, 30% increase for the 4th year, and 40% increase in
demand for the 5th year.

Analysis

The results from Table 5.3 shows that in year 2024, the company's
ROS results to 45.64%. In year 2025, pertaining to previous year, it
increases by 0.25%, having 45.89%. In year 2026, it continued to
increase, having 50.56% ROS. In year 2027, ROS continued to increase,
58.32%. Lastly, in year 2028, by far the most productive increase of
9.04% from the previous year, resulting to 67.36% ROS. Comparing the
first to fifth year, the company's ROS is constant in increasing each year
of the operation.

The results of table 5.4 shows the five-year computation of Equity


Ratio of the company. From first to fifth year, the company do not have
any debts, resulting to have 100% equity ratio each year. All the assets of
the company are financed by the company's funds and investments of
the partners.

Table 5.5, which displays the computation results for the


company's five-year operating margin, it is 45.64% in 2024, 45.89% in
2025, 50.56% in 2026, 58.32% in 2027, and 67.36% in 2028. The
operating margin performs well in the first year and has continued to do
so, maintaining a value above 45%, the business is considered to have a
balance between growth and profitability

Table 5.6 shows that, for the next five years, the company's Return
on Investment will be 2.03:1 in 2024, 1.42:1 in 2025, 1.32:1 in 2026,
1.34:1 in 2027, and 1.38:1 in 2028. This demonstrates how, in contrast
to net income and initial investment, ROI cash flows decline over the
course of a year. This is predicated on the idea that costs will rise in
tandem with the company's growth. This implies that while revenues can
rise, the return on investment will decrease due to increased costs. This
is merely an indication of commercial profitability rather than a clue that

95 | C R O O K 8
the company is not doing well. Furthermore, it demonstrates that there
will be a significant return on investment in the first year of operation.

Table 5.7 shows that, over the five-year period from 2024 to 2028,
the company's gross profit margin consistently improved, starting at 0.49
in 2024 and gradually increased to 0.69 in 2028. This indicates a
positive Trent in the percentage of revenue retained as gross profit after
deducting the cost of goods sold, reflecting potentially improved efficiency
and profitability in the company's core operations.
