i. Learning and Growth Perspective Most of the coffee shops have staff training programs such as Starbucks etc • Hold training programs regularly and set the least training hours per year It’s glad that Li Wang has already take this action. Suggestions • Hold group activities regularly • Manager/executive attend to executive education course irregularly • Decision made by one person should be replaced with Brain Storm

iii. Customer Perspective Nearly half of the customers are between 21-30 years old, which is consistent with the age of office workers Besides, about 30% of other coffee shops increase advertising to improve their business. • Set a suggestion box for customers’ complaints and encourage the adviser by coupon Suggestions • Develop membership programs - discounts. Vouchers.little gifts for special days… While, the customer base of the PCS —— local professionals and expats • Carry through questionnaire survey • Attract the office workers nearby by developing “take-away” & network business, which fulfill their needs • Attract new customers by advertising and promotion such as distributing booklet and providing coupon
iv. Financial Perspective • Categorize the cost of sales by kind Suggestions • Enhance the bargain capacity with suppliers • Consider the rationality of the assets depreciation policy • Make investment in facilities and innovations etc. which can create future value The revenue structure of the Pudong Coffee Shop is quite different from others. To verify the specific reason for low GM, suggest to categorize the cost of sales by kind.

IV-2. Break-even point Analysis Cost Variable cost Depreciation of tangible assets Mixed cost Wages and remuneration Rental Analysis Utilities (lighting and heating etc.) Garbage collection Advertising and promotions Fixed cost Assumptions: (1)Average spend per person is 50. (2)consider the mixed cost as fixed cost • BEP=(420,000+500,000+23,710)/50=18,875 • BEP=(458,640+508,720+20,066)/50=17,715
IV-3.The overall valuation of the coffee shop Assumptions: • As the consumption market in China was expanding at a rate excess of 10 percent per annum, we assume that the sales growth rate is 10%. • Because the growth rate is 10% which is really high for a business, we divide the life span of the coffee shop into two related periods, within which, one is of high growth rate and the other is called the follow-up. • In the follow-up period, according to the competitive equilibrium theory, the growth rate of sales roughly equal to the nominal growth rate of macroeconomic, which is between 2%~6%. As China is highly developing, we assume that rate is 6%. • We assume that Li be able to borrow the loan with the same interest rate . • We assume that the growth of sales is smooth. • Then we use the EVA method to value the shop. • Let the cost of equity equals the rate of net profit to equity.
IV-3.The overall valuation of the coffee shop =net operation profit after tax/ Equity =38,435/438,656=8.76% =7%×180,779 /( 180,779 +438,656)+ 8.76% ×438,656/( 180,779 +438,656) =8.25% EVA (Economic Value Added )=net operation profit after tax-total capital cost =38,435-438,656×8.25%=2,245.88 The value of the coffee shop =Investment Capital +The Present Value of EVA =681,000+ 2,245.88 /(1+8.25%)+ 2,245.88 ×1.1/(1+8.25%) ^2+ 2,245.88 ×1.1^2/(1+8.25%)^3+ 2,245.88 ×1.1 ^3/(1+8.25%)^4+ 2,245.88 ×1.1^4/(1+8.25%)^5+ 2,245.88 × 1.1^5/[(8.25%-6%) ×(1+8.25%)^5] = 799,864.8
