Question 1

Which of the following is NOT a step in establishing a business?&#10;A) Developing a business plan&#10;B) Getting a truck or other vehicle&#10;C) Getting a business license&#10;D) Obtaining insurance

Accepted Answer

Getting a truck or other vehicle is not a necessary step in establishing a business. While it may be important for some types of businesses, such as a delivery service, it is not a fundamental requirement for all businesses. Developing a business plan, obtaining a business license, and obtaining insurance are all essential steps in establishing a business.

Question 2

Which section of the business plan is to be developed last?&#10;A) Table of Contents&#10;B) business Description&#10;C) Market Analysis&#10;D) Executive Summary

Which of the following is NOT considered a startup cost?&#10;A) vehicle or truck&#10;B) tools&#10;C) insurance&#10;D) escrow account

Vehicle or truck, tools, and insurance are all considered startup costs as they are necessary to get the business up and running. An escrow account, on the other hand, is typically associated with ongoing expenses such as taxes or loan payments, and is therefore not considered a startup cost.

Question 6

Which of the following would NOT normally be a part of a business plan cover letter?&#10;A) Name of business&#10;B) Name of owner&#10;C) Owner financial statement&#10;D) Telephone number of owner

Accepted Answer

The owner's financial statement would not normally be a part of a business plan cover letter. The cover letter typically includes basic information about the business such as its name, owner's name, and contact information. It may also provide a brief overview of the business plan and the purpose of the letter. However, detailed financial information would typically be included in the actual business plan document itself.

Question 7

Which of the following is NOT included in a financial plan?&#10;A) Start-up cost analysis&#10;B) Credit Report&#10;C) Break-even analysis&#10;D) Profit/Loss statement

Accepted Answer

While a credit report is an important aspect of managing personal finances, it is not directly related to creating a financial plan. The other options - start-up cost analysis, break-even analysis, and profit/loss statement are all key components of a comprehensive financial plan.

Question 8

Which of the following is to be kept as part of a ledger?&#10;A) Employee addresses&#10;B) Parts sold&#10;C) College transcripts&#10;D) Insurance certificate

Accepted Answer

A ledger is a record of financial transactions, so parts sold would be the correct choice to be kept as part of a ledger. Employee addresses, college transcripts, and insurance certificates are not financial transactions and therefore wouldn't be recorded in a ledger.
