1.2 INTRODUCTION
B. Nature of Business
The Baking Fairy is a business based on partnership. Our business consists of six partners that
have been assigned with individual tasks and responsibilities. Our business is comprised of a
general manager, administrative executives, marketing executives, assistant marketing
executives, operations executives, and financial executives. The six members also agreed on a
partnership agreement that will bind the partners with any capital sharing, profit sharing and other
aspects that follow. The amount of profit is distributed according to percentage of capital
contribution of RM 12,000 for each partner. The Baking Fairy is a small cafeteria that specializes
in making glow-in-the-dark cupcakes. We offer five delicius cupcake flavours, which are vanilla,
red velvet, chocolate, oreo and coffee.
C. Industry Profile
Cupcake business is seen as a booming business over the past years. The reason is that these
cupcakes are not only pleasant to look at, but also offer a hassle-free way of eating. The cupcakes
are designed in small bite size, where it only take several small bites to finish the whole unit.
Forget the boring traditional cupcakes, The Baking Fairy presents you luminous, glowing cupcakes
in a variety of flavours. Now the customers can have some fun and amusement while keeping their
stomaches satisfied.
D. Location of the business
The Baking Fairy is located at Lot LS21, Jalan Akuatik 13/64, Persiaran Akuatik, 40200, Shah
toAlam, Selangor. With population of more than 170 000 people, Shah Alam is proven to be one of
the most strategic places to incorporate a business.
E. Date of business commencement
The Baking Fairy started its business operation on the 1st November 2013. In order to ensure all
operation and business are well organised, we started our business plan on the year of 2014. All
planning were done perfectly after surveying places, raw materials and population in order to
sustain our company for three years ahead and more.
.
F. Factors in selecting the proposed business
We see “glowing cupcakes” as something that is unusual and unique. Even though there are
already a plenty of busniesses making and selling cupcakes, however, The Baking Fairy has a
distinctive special factor in our very own cupcakes. Our cupcakes are made in the way that they
are able to glow in the dark. Just how many of glowing stuffs are edible to be eaten? The Baking
Fairy offers you one! The glowing factor in our cupcakes are both exciting and mind blown at the
same time. We also are very passionate in baking. We take our baking delicacies very seriously in
order to ensure that every and each cupcake that we sell could fulfill customers’ satisfaction and
beyond. We only want the best and par excellence for our customers.
Business plan is an ideal plan that shows a company the right way to start and develop a
business. A good business plan acts as a dinamic blueprint for running and expanding the
business. It describes the direction of the company is taking, what its goals are, where it wants to
be and how it is going to get there.
A business plan contains all of our product information, mainpower and financial estimates
and plans for the future. When you make updates to your business plan, you get to see how plans
for the future and how your purposed changes will affect your entire business. Business plan will
remind the company its original goals and how business changes will affect original vision.
A good and spectatcular business plan indirectly showing how excellent the
business actually is. It shows how well the business is being managed, driven by its
goals, mission and vision. It also shows the company’s ability to create profit and
other financial values. These are important in order to convince the bank to lend
some loan to the business.
v. Understanding of business
This will help the entrepreneur to have better understand the purpose of the
business and act as guideline to manage the business effectively and efficiently.
When the venture becomes a reality, the plans and strategies outlined in business
plan will be an important benchmark to help the entrepreneur gauge the progress.

2.12 ADMINISTRATION BUDGET
Marketing is the management process through which goods and services are performed to
the customer. It includes four elements which are product, price, place and promotional strategy.
Market research involves collecting, recording and interpreting the data or information about
customer, product, competitor and market. Then, it will be used to make market decisions.
The purpose of running a business is to gain profits and growth. This is a fact that we
cannot outrun because there is no one on earth that will run a business just to finish up their initial
capital and waste their money. This is where the importance of marketing plan plays an important
role since it is one of the major steps that will directly contribute in achieving our business
objectives. This is not something small which can be done by one person alone, but it needs the
participant of everyone in the organization. Therefore, it is a ‘must’ for every business people to be
exposed on the basic knowledge of marketing.
In order to enhance the marketing strategies, the business are making advertisement
through social network such as Facebook, Instagram, and also e-mail to give more information
about the product. Apart from it is easy to handle, social networking can spread the information
faster to the consumers. From social network, the business’s product can be improved through the
comment and also suggestion from consumers to make sure our product always achieve
consumers’ needs and wants. Fliers, business card, bunting, and signboard also can be part of the
strategies to attract the customers towards the products.
Our company, The Baking Fairy will also be concentrating on target market, competitors
and promotional strategies in marketing our product to each our sales target. Our business main
priority is to maximize the profit without neglecting the satisfaction of our customers. For that, it is
important for our company to plan and implement ways on achieving our customers’ satisfaction
and gain their trust.
3.2 MARKETING OBJECTIVES
Marketing objectives can be defined as a goal set by a business when promoting its
products or services to potential consumers that should be achieved within a given time frame. A
business’s marketing objectives for particular products might include increasing product
awareness among targeted consumers, providing information about product feature, and reducing
consumer reluctance to buying the product.
A marketing effort can be focused on reviving interest in product that has been on the
market for a long time or about which people have longstanding attitude. This is because
people often seek a safety and affordable product. So, by doing these marketing,
customers will know more about the product and automatically it will improve our product
awareness.
The aim of doing marketing is to make customer interested with our product. If the products
become a market leader, it will increase the sales which then will significantly exceed the
cost incurred. It is often insufficient to simply state an objective of increasing sales by a
certain percentage and gain more profits for the long terms of operation runs in our
business industry.
A new organization will find it extremely difficult to be heard above the noise in crowded
marketplace, with public distractions by many stimuli speculations. The business must be
braved in order to face the risks in this industry. The business must prepare mentally and
physically.
3.3 PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

which include; Chocolate flavored Cupcake, Coffee flavored Cupcake, Oreo Cupcake and old time

who always seek for changes and adventure. The Baking Fairy transforms your “edible-glow-in-
the-dark-cupcake” fantasy into a living reality, just like the name suggest, a fairy indeed!
3.4 TARGET MARKET
Target market is a place where we want to market our product or give services to the
customers. The business must focus its activities on attracting a core group of customers that has
the highest potential to purchase the goods offered. First of all the company has to decide the
most strategic place in developing our business.
For our target market, we chose Seksyen 13, Shah Alam. This is because the place
is one of the most developing areas in Shah Alam. With a population of 641, 306 people in Shah
Alam itself, it opens a wide opportunity to attract people to become our potential customers. The
retail cupcake industry in Malaysia has recently experienced rapid growth. The idea of small, bite
size cakes really catch the attention of the publics, and thus, stimulate the consumption of
cupcakes throughout the year.
The Baking Fairy wants to establish a large regular customer base, and therefore is
concentrating its business and marketing on local residents, which will be the dominant target
market. This will establish a healthy, consistent revenue base t ensure the stability of the business.
In addition, tourist traffic is expected to comprise approximately 15% of the revenues. High
visibility and competitive products and service are critical to capture this segment of the market.
Our business is focusing towards kids, teenagers, and adults who are cupcake lovers.
3.5 MARKET SEGMENTATION
Firstly, to achieve our mission and vision, we had identified our target market based on the
bases for segmenting consumers which is Demographic and Geographic segmentation to identify
our valuable customers.
For Demographic Segmentation, we decided to segment the markets by their age and race.
For the age, we target our potential customers from the range of 6 years old until 45 years of age.
This is because during that age, people still love to eat desserts. In the other hand for the race, we
target all groups of ethnics which are Malay, Chinese, Indian and others to try out our
cupcakes. These market segments consume the majority of the cake industry.
3.6 MARKET SIZE
Market size can be defined as the number of individuals in a certain market who are
potential buyer or sellers of a product or service. The market size is usually quoted in a unit of
sales or monetary value for a specific period of time. The potential purchase includes the purchase
of the competitor within the same market. The market size includes all the competitors that are
already existed in the market. The competitors are in the same line and have their own share in
the market.
After conducting some research, we estimated that there are around 591 713 people
living in Seksyen 13, Shah Alam. The population of family estimated is between 80 000 to 90 000
families. The majority of the population living in Seksyen 13, Shah Alam consists of 70 percent
Malay, 20 percent Chinese while 10 percent from other races. This research is done by including
all type of ages. Results obtained are as follows:
Competitors refer to other business that offer similar, substitute, or alternative products or services
to the same target market. It is good to have a competition so that we can improve our business.
We have identified three competitors after a research has been made. They are Wondermilk,
Sugar Candy and Dizzy Cupcake.

Marketing strategy is the process of selection of the product mix and customer profile for
maximum profit. The marketing strategy consists of four key variables which is known as 4Ps ;
1. Price
2. Place
3. Product
4. Promotion
A. Product
Product may be defined as everything both favorable and unfavorable, that a person
receives in an exchange. Our cupcake has its own quality because we choose the best
ingredients. We produce chocolate flavored Cupcake, Coffee flavored Cupcake, Oreo Cupcake
and old time favorites like Red Velvet and Vanilla. What differentiate our cupcakes from others is
that our cupcakes are made to glow in the dark. We also accept assorted flavored cupcake upon
request of the customer.
B. Price
We charge our cupcakes with affordable and reasonable price to our potential customers as
a way to attract them. Price is based on total cost of the product plus standard mark up. Our
pricing objective is based on profit oriented which is profit maximization as to make sure our
business will be long lasting in the market.
We have decided to sell our product at RM 5.90 after considering all the cost involved.
Since the product is new in the market, we are not taking a risk to increase our price yet. At the
beginning, we only need to ensure our business is stable.
C. Place
We deem our location to be a strategic place by evaluating the population around the Shah
Alam Valley. The main reason for choosing Shah Alam is because it is one of the most popular
places visited by foreigners in Malaysia. Shah Alam also has a relatively high number of
population in Selangor. Shah Alam also is recognized as a place with high potential for economic
growth. Generally, we sell our cupcakes at our shop directly to our customer. We also offer cash
on delivery in Shah Alam, Subang Jaya, Setia Alam and Klang Valley area.
Our shop is located at Jalan Akuatik 13/64, Persiaran Akuatik, Seksyen 13 which is near to
Aeon Shah Alam. We choose this location because it is easy to access by people living in Shah
Alam especially to students such as from UiTM, MSU and other universities located in Shah Alam.
Furthermore, the majority of the population in this area is Malay and Muslim, in which it is easier
for our business to attract more Muslim buyers since our product is certified to be halal.

important components such as input, transformation process, output, control or feedback and
external environment. The components of an operations system can be portrayed in the schematic
diagram as shown below:
External Environment
Control / Feedback
A. Inputs
Inputs are defined as whatever entities in the form of materials personnel, capital, utilities,
and information which go into transformation process to produce output. The input that we
use to make this glowing cupcakes are tonic water, flour, butter, caster sugar, eggs, milk,
baking powder, brown sugar and vanilla essence.
B. Transformation Process
It is the actual process of physically changing the inputs into outputs of product or services.
We transform those raw materials into edible, delicious glowing cupcakes.
C. Output
It is the accomplishment of operation system that is the greater value than the sum of the
inputs. It is in the form of desired products or services. The final output of The Baking Fairy
is the glowing cupcakes.
D. Control/Feedback
It is the process of making sure that the desired output are obtained by taking actions at
various points.
E. External Environment
It is the term coined to explain that the operations system is affected by external factors
which include random and unexpected events that can cause planned and actual output to
differ.
4.2 OPERATIONAL OBJECTIVES
2. To ensure that the operation runs smoothly and systematically according to the operations
activities
In order to achieve a higher profit and customer satisfaction, The Baking Fairy has planned
several strategies in the production department. The strategies are as stated below:-
Analysing the market size and targeting the market to determine the suitability of the
product in the market area in order to fulfil the desires of the customers.
Ensuring the production process follows the specification precisely as wanted by the
government’s specification and authority.
Ensuring the condition of workers, operations place and all the materials and equipment are
in good condition.
Cooling of cupcakes
Production planning is important to make sure that our business is able to produce outputs
that are enough to fulfil the expected market demand or sales. To achieve that, it needs to have a
good production planning. In production planning, the business will determine how much output to
be produced for a certain period of time such as in a day, a week or a month. The business may
need the information from the marketing plan, for example average sales forecast.
= RM 36 657.00
Number of working days per month is 26 days. The amount of output to be produced per day is;
= 6 110 ÷ 26
If the effective working hour per day is 10 hours and 30 minutes, the total output produced per day
is;
= 235 ÷ 10.5

v Liquidity Ratio: The term liquidity refers to the availability of liquid assets to meet short-term obligations. Thus, liquidity ratios measure the ability of the
business to pay its monthly bills.The most widely used liquidity ratios are current ratio and quick ratio. Current ratio can be determined by dividing total current
assets by total current liabilities. Generally, this ratio shows the business’ ability to generate cash to meet its short-term obligations. Quick ratio, also known as the
acid test ratio, measures the extent to which current liabilities are covered by liquid assets. To determine quick ratio, the calculation of liquid assets does not take
into account inventrories since it is sometimes difficult to convert them into cash quickly.

v Profitability ratios are important indicators of the business’ financial performance. Investors will particularly be interested in these ratios since they measure
the performance and growth potential of the business. Some of the commonly used profitability ratios are gross profit margin, net profit margin, return on assets
and return on equity. Gross profit margin give a good indication of financial health of the business. Without an adequate gross margin, the business will be unable
to pay its operating and other expenses. Gross profit margin is calculated by dividing the business gross income by sales. Net profit margin is an indication of how
effective the business is at cost control. The higher the net profit margin, the more effective the business is at converting sales into actual profit. Net profit margin
is calculated by dividing the business net income by sales. Return of assets measures the overall return that the business is able to make on its assets. This ratio is
derived by dividing the business net profit by total assets. Return of equity shows what the business has earned on its owners’ investment in the business. This ratio
is derived by dividing the business net profit by total equity.
THE BAKING FAIRY
EFFICIENCY
v The efficiency ratios measure how efficient the business uses its assets to generate sales. The most widely used efficiency ratio for planning purposes is
receivable turnover and inventory turnover ratios. Receivable turnover is the ratio of net credit sales of a business to its average accounts receivable during a
given period, usually a year. It is an activity ratio which estimates the number of times a business collects its average accounts receivable balance during a
period. Accounts receivable turnover is calculated using the following formula: Net Credit Sales/Average Accounts Receivable. Accounts receivable turnover
measures the efficiency of a business in collecting its credit sales. Generally a high value of accounts receivable turnover is favorable and lower figure may
indicate inefficiency in collecting outstanding sales. Increase in accounts receivable turnover overtime generally indicates improvement in the process of cash
collection on credit sales. Inventory turnover (or stock turnover) measures the number of times inventories have been converted into sales and indicates how
liquid the inventory is. All other things being equal, the higher the turnover figure, the more liquid the business is. This ratio divides the cost of sales (or cost of
goods sold) by the average value of inventory. The average value of inventory is derived by adding the opening and closing balance of and dividing the total by
two.

Financial Leverage (or gearing) is designed to help the entrepreneur measure the degree of financial risk that his business faces. By referring to this ratio, the entrepreneur can
assess his level of debt and decide whether it is appropriate for the business. The most commonly used leverageratios are total debt (liabilities) to equity (also known as
leverage or gearing), total debt to total assets, and times interest earned (also known as interest coverage). The total debt to equity ratio measures the percentage of the
business’ assets financed by creditors relative to the percentage financed by the owners. This ratio is calculated by dividing the the total debt by total equity. The debt to
asset ratio measures the percentage of the business’ assets financed by creditors relative to the percentage financed by the entrepreneur. This ratio is calculated by dividing
the total debts by total assets. Times interest earned ratio measures the number of times interest expense can be covered by profit before interest and tax. This ratio is
calculated by dividing total inte
