available in Blue Nile restaurant.

traditional foods including the well knows indigenous spices. Also there will be 15%

Plans
While careful planning was involved in setting the strategic goals for , it may be that
these goals are not met. The owner have decided to set a zone of acceptability for
meeting sales and financial objectives. For both sales and financial objectives, a 10%
negative deviation from expected sales and projected returns on assets will be accepted.
However, if sales objectives and returns on investment are less than 90% of projections,
certain actions will be taken. These actions include:
1. For unacceptable sales levels during the first year: Blue Nile Restaurant will
combat this problem by doubling promotions.
2. For unacceptable sales levels: After 6 months of marketing products, sales will be
evaluated. If not meeting acceptable sales levels, Blue Nile Restaurant will consider
additional local marketing specialists.
3. For unacceptable business liquidity: In the event that the business lacks liquidity,
Blue Nile Restaurant will examine their accounts receivable procedures to ensure that
payment periods are just and that payments are being received in a timely manner.
4. For unacceptable returns on equity: If returns on assets and owners equity fall
below acceptable levels, Blue Nile Restaurant will first examine and compare the perunit costs of production and marketing with sales prices.
