Contemporary Business 14th Edition by Louis Boone, David Kurtz

Exercise 31

Brainstorm a small business idea. Research the industry and major competition online. Draft a business plan. Include your decision on whether your firm will be a sole proprietorship or a partnership.
4. Identify an organization-such as Americorps or the United States Postal Service-that is owned by a unit or agency of government. Imagine that you have been hired by that agency as a consultant to decide whether the organization should remain publicly owned. Research its successes and failures, and write a memo explaining your conclusion.
