Recommendation
The group recommends ACA # 1 (Expand) only after any, or all of the four ACAs (#3 to #6)
are accomplished. Based on the companys comparative statement of income, the stores sales
are doing well and the net income is increasing every period. Also, the business inventory
turnover ratio is great and this makes it easier to look for suppliers. With this, we have decided
to expand because we believe that the store has potential to grow into something bigger, only
if it was handled or managed well. ACA numbers 3 to 6 are necessary before expanding so as to
gain more customers, to cater to more people and to improve the performance of the business.

Conclusion
We believe that if our recommendations were to be implemented, the store would improve
its performance and the store would generate more cash given a number of years. With these
recommendations implemented, surely, the organizational objectives will be achieved and
success is probable.
