Have It Your Way is a fast-food restaurant company with thousands of franchise organizations all around the country.  They desperately need you and Just Right Company to develop their latest software application to run on their local store computers.  This important application will help them become more efficient at inventory/supply management and billing functions, which, in the long term, will enable Have It Your Way to continue to meet Wall Street financial quarterly projections, as well as investor expectations.

  1. Cost:  Whatever it takes to complete the project, but keep in mind that your billing revenue cannot exceed $250,000, and you need to make a profit on this contract!

     

  2. Overhead Charges:  The rates that The Just Right Company’s internal accounting department charges to your contract are as follows.

    1. Eighteen percent (18%) of the billing revenue is charged for any and all lab and testing facilities. 

    2. Twenty percent (20%) of the billing revenue is charged to your staff members.

Your Activity responses should be both grammatically and mechanically correct, and formatted in the same fashion as the Activity itself.  If there is a Part A, your response should identify a Part A, etc.  In addition, you must appropriately cite all resources used in your response and document in a bibliography using APA style.  (A WBS and matrix are required.)

Part A        Create a work breakdown structure (WBS) similar to the one found on page 117 of the text.  Research and include at least two (2) logical subdivisions for each Activity’s Support Responsibility team members.
