It sells pencils and pens, paper goods (including computer paper and forms), staplers, calendars, and other items, excluding furniture and other major items such as copy machines that you would expect to find in an office. Sales have been growing at 5 percent per year during the past several years. Mr. Marina, the president of TM Office Supplies, recently attended a national office supplies convention.

TM Office Supplies vendor turnover is significantly lower than the industry average. The new market analysis system was supposed to be ready two years ago but has been delayed for more than one year in systems development. A staff position, reporting to the president, for a person to prepare and analyze cash budgets was created two years ago but has never been filled. Mr. Marina has called on you to conduct a systems survey of this situation. You are to assume that a request for systems development has been prepared and approved.
