Customers can purchase one item or if they purchase in bulk they can receive a discount. There are two other suppliers in the local area that offer personalized merchandise, but they only offer bulk orders and they do not offer a storefront or popular accessories. You are planning to open your facility in a 10,000 square foot, stand-alone store and warehouse. You will need to purchase inventory for the store and stock the warehouse for bulk orders.

  13. 2013-14 Event Topics • Business Presentation • You have been asked to give a presentation to a group of small business leaders in your community on how the Affordable Care Act’s rules, costs, and tax implications will likely impact their business. • Computer Game & Simulation Programming • The player is an intern at a large company. He is navigating a six-story office building as a career journey. Starting at the bottom level, the player will encounter business-related obstacles that require new skills. Fortunately, the player can choose a high school FBLA competitive event to obtain these skills. The event choice will provide a small text segment of information related to the event skills that should lead to the correct answer or action. When the skills have been obtained, the player will level up to the next floor of the office building to take on more difficult obstacles and choices. At the top floor is the goal, a full time job of his/her dreams. There is a minimum of five skill enhancements per level. The audience is middle school technology students thinking about joining FBLA in high school. Games must conform to an ESRB rating of E for everyone.
