CALMS Ice Cream Delight

The current business plan is indicated to require a budget of approximately $70,000 to manage the operational and functional activities of CALMS Ice Cream Delight. The prominent sources of finances are bank loans and the involvement of potential investors. As a bank loan is a suitable alternative for newly established businesses, CALMS Ice Cream Delight intends to obtain one to handle continuing financial activity as this provides numerous benefits, such as inferior interest rates and venture capital which will enable the business to initiate sufficiently. . In addition, the CALMS Ice Cream Delight will also incorporate potential investors privately to mitigate the associated risk factors and gain funding regardless of the concerns related to enterprise success or failure. The business is determined to acquire both types of finances, having the proportion of 50% for each. The start-up summary is prepared for business which is placed in an appendix.
