Business plan
Current situation
We are based in Saint Germain en Laye, population has been decreasing since 2006.
There is a problem here. The total I is below the half of the Capital, this is not supposed to
happen and it reveal a dysfunction in the management of shares.
According to the law, the shareholders have 6 months to find a solution after the end of the fiscal
year to make a decision, this situation can no longer be.
The solution would be to transfer a part of this deficit to the shareholders.
There are 3838 shares.
Capital = 247 012
To invest, we have to purchase shares or increase the capital.
The increase of the capital seems to be more likely.
Assumption
If we increase the capital, create shares of a value of 60 (2417 012/3838). We invest for instance
200 000
(200 000/60 = 3333 shares)
The value of shares after the increases of K = 195 362 / (3333+3838) = 27.24 (purchased 60)
If we play an accordion trick we put the increased capital in condition. We transfer half of the losses
to the capital which will be paid by the shareholders. (thanks to the law). That way we get half of the
losses transferred.
Losses = 263 807
losses = 131 904
Decreases the capital of 131 904
After playing the accordion, the shareholder's equities will be of -4698
This being said, we also have to decrease the number of shares because the capital is decreasing.
We would have to get rid of 2198 shares (131 604 / 60)
Recommendations
We need to reduce time of payment to 30 days to get back cash because it increased from
230 000 to
750 000 but being careful if the firm starts a marketing campaign with a
loan, on how many months. Its important to find cash, to pay the debts (+66 000).
We need to propose in priority middle range products because there is a lot of family, with
kids, they need space in the car and a reliable one. Also a high range because of
competitors (audi or porsche) and the 37% of singles which will not necessary want a 5
doors car but something more sporty like the PRO_CEED GT ; or the Picanto (more for
women).
Some of the employees might be paid less commercial team, maybe playing about a fix
salary and to work on commission. Also we dont need two receptionnaires in Saint
Germain. It would be too expansive to fire one of them , but maybe discussing about
retirement (enter date 02/10/1989, more than 25 years in the company).
Marketing recommendations:
The challenge for Kia has been to increase awareness of its brand within European
markets
Kia has to develop its brand identity
Improve the communication
To give a better brand image: Most of the time people do not think positive things
about KIA
To set up partnership abroad with good automakers
To align compared to its competitors: Toyota, Honda, Nissan which are the most
important
Improve the quality of the cars: In some cars the wheel vibrates which is dangerous,
moreover there is a lot of breakdowns
The After sales service is not good, there is too much complaints
To improve the Customer service: Too much waiting
To simplify the web site with less tabs
Other recommendations:
The distributor propose rentals and lising so payment are
over several months, Kia should demand payment at time
Normally, its BtoC, so they cash the client and send back
money to KIA but sometimes they forgot . The company
should be paid first before sending products.
