How to reward enthusiastic employee/contractor who goes above and beyond when there's low cash flow?
One of the people I hired on is super enthusiastic and always trying to improve our system in ways he's not really being compensated to do. I don't feel he is money motivated, I think he just loves the business. At the same time I want him to feel appreciated for his efforts. A hearty thanks doesn't feel like enough, cash flow is low, and I have little idea how to assign him stock/co-ownership (currently this is a sole proprietorship). Any ideas?

Two quick suggestions that might apply in this case and in other cases in general.
1. Give him a fancier title. Costs you nothing and makes him feel even more involved.
2. Give him some bonus time off. Sounds like he is probably doing more than the minimum already, and giving him an occasional long weekend might be something you can afford and he'd appreciate.
3. (Bonus suggestion!) You are probably correct that he isn't simply seeking money, so don't feel awkward at not giving any. And of course, an equity share is out of the question with a sole proprietorship. Simple sincere appreciation and thank yous are probably a good response. Maybe also you can 'double down' and not only give the fancy title, but also actively seek out his input and suggestions for the future, too.

There are many nonmonetary rewards to choose from. But to choose the right one you must get to know the employee's psychology. For instance, I have had CEOs hold meetings to personally and publicly thank employees for specific above and beyond accomplishments. These need to be near in time to the accomplishment to be meaningful. Some people really love the limelight and find this very motivating.
But some employees are painfully shy and hate public recognition. I had one employee who got wind of such announcement and developed a stomach ache and went home just before the award meeting to avoid the possibility of being called to the front of the room to have their hand shaken by the CEO. But that employee loved getting plaques and trophies that they could display on their desk long term. So I made sure they got a "permanent" recognition award for his desk signed by the CEO to show off, and he was thrilled by that. I have also made my own awards by hand when I had no cash. But I had employees who had received a lot of plaques, etc. who found them "cheesy" and preferred a clean desk and threw them out.
Others like a bouquet of flowers that is there only a week. But some employees would cringe at the thought of receiving flowers.
Some employees are motivated by a company paid dinner for 2. Or a fruit basket, a bottle of wine, concert tickets, tickets for a sporting event, a weekend getaway, etc. or even an extra day or two off, etc. I had one CEO at a bootstrapping company where there was no money who had a vacation home that he would provide for a couple of days to employees and their families
For employees who may be taking time away from loved ones and responsibilities for others, this is a way to thank to let the family members know that their sacrifices are appreciated too.
I had one too employee who received all kinds of awards from cash bonuses and stock,plaques and public recognition, and dinners and getaways. Years later she told me that the form of recognition that had most motivated her was a thank you note I wrote for her, describing her above and beyond accomplishments and what they meant to me and the company.
She had saved them and she said that caused her to keep stretching as long as I was her boss. But since we had both left that company and both looking for jobs, she was wondering if I would resend them as a recommendation she could put on her LinkedIn page. For some people "words are cheap". Butfor her, my heartfelt words of praise that cost me and the company nothing meant more than all the other awards combined.
If you know your employee well, you will know what is right for them and what will backfire. If you don't know them well, spending some time with them to find out will be a good investment of your time and that attention itself will be appreciated. If you are bad at reading between the lines, you can even tell them you are thinking about nonmonetary recognition awards programs and you would like their thoughts on what would be good. Employees like being asked for opinions, especially when management is actively interested in acting on them.
I hope that helps.

Autonomy, Mastery, Purpose...and eventually access and the ability to make things happen. That's what motivates enthusiastic people who have broken the work/life balance.
I could say more on the subject, but Dan Pink has already said it all better than I ever could. Watch his 'Puzzle of Motivation' presentation and check out some of his other work (it's kind of his thing). I suspect you'll keep thinking 'Yup! That's the guy I'm talking about' when you start watching!

NEW YORK Old guys are resting, young teams are angling, and Kobe Bryant is dreaming of another championship. Its that time of year: the NBAs playoffs are upon us!
And thanks to the Milwaukee Bucks losing to the Indiana Pacers on Thursday night, the Knicks (33-29) officially clinched a berth in the NBAs postseason party. At the very least, Knicks fans can be a.ssured of four more games after the Knicks conclude their regular season in Charlotte on April 26, even if were yet to learn whether they will square off against the Celtics, Pacers, Heat or Bulls.
This time of year is renowned for playoff discussion but considerable time is also spent on arguments as to which of the leagues elite deserve accolades in the form of the NBAs annual season-ending awards.
Youve probably read accounts about how Tyson Chandler has changed the defensive culture of the Knicks. As Jamie OGrady pointed out in the New York Times Off the Dribble Blog, the Knicks are 11th in the NBA in points allowed per game up from 27th last season. And speaking of last season, the Bockers were ranked 26th in points allowed in the paint; this season, they are a much more respectable ninth.
The improvement is a result of a team-wide effort to defend. But anyone that follows the Knicks knows that Chandler is the diesel engine that motors the Knicks defense.
I recently had the opportunity to speak to Chandler about his defensive contributions to the team and what winning Defensive Player of the Year would mean to him.
It would be huge for me, he told me. It would signify a lot of hard work being recognized as well as the hard work of my teammates.
Over the past decade, the NBAs awards have been dominated by players on winning teams. Most voters subscribe to the notion that only the leagues most successful teams (e.g. top four seeds in each conference) deserve to have any individual award winners.
Rubbish, I say!
And thats the same way I felt back in 2002 when Jason Kidd lost one of the NBAs closest MVP races to Tim Duncan. Duncan led the Spurs to a 58-win season and won the award over Kidd, whose arrival in New Jersey was the primary reason the Nets doubled their win total to 52, one of the biggest single-season turnarounds in NBA history.
After the ballots were cast, Duncans Spurs lost in the second round while Kidds Nets made their first trip to the NBA Finals. Maybe it was poetic justice.
Even still, to me, that was a travesty, and Ill always remember it. But I cant necessarily say it was unfair. Most Valuable is a subjective term. And as the years have gone by, the question as to what it means to be MVP has not become any clearer. Kevin Love will probably receive some votes this year, and hes headed to the draft lottery. Thats simply because some voters value individual statistical production while others care more about wins and losses.
At this point, I do not think that Chandler is going to win, and I can understand why. Although he may not be Defensive Player of the Year (especially since Chris Sheridan himself confided to me that he does not plan on voting for Chandler for first place), hes probably the NBAs Most Valuable Defensive Player.
If those two things seem like theyre the same, theyre not. Unfortunately, due to an overall dearth of responsible accounting and metrics, the NBAs statistics do not lend themselves to accurately portraying defensive dominance.
Thats something Chandler and I agree on. I think people get caught up so much with blocks and statistics and what a person averages. He said. To me, thats not necessarily the best defender.
And therein lies the problem. This new era of statistics and advanced metrics have revolutionized the way we watch and think about the game. Too often, we seek to resolve arguments as to who can and cant do something based on averages or percentages. Easily accessible box scores and running numbers gives anyone a voice in any argument.
For example, LeBron James is shooting 53.3 percent from the field while Kevin Durant is shooting 50.1 percent. Does that make James a better shooter than Durant? Of course not.
So forgive my refusal to anoint Serge Ibaka with the defensive distinction merely because of his league-leading 3.6 blocks per game. Chandler, ranked 16th in the league, blocks only 1.5 shots per game.
But heres the difference: Ibaka usually has Kendrick Perkins beside him. Ibaka is free to roam and come off the weak side in an attempt to block shots. Going after those blocks is a risk and its one too great for Chandler to take as often as hed like.
To me, a lot of the time when you go after blocks, you take yourself out of position, he said. Im a little different, I like to not take myself out of position and just challenge shots, make em miss, and let my teammates get the rebounds.
Its just another example of how everything Chandler says and does while on the court is about the team. He once famously said You dont just play with your teammates. You play for your teammates.
So no, I dont think this is all a coincidence.
But what I do think is that the NBA needs to redo and rethink the way in which it officially keep track of individual players defensive statistics.
Id like to see the following :
Forced Misses: When a defender is guarding an offensive player who misses a shot
Forced Turnovers: When a defender causes an offensive player to turn the ball over via a bad pass, traveling violation or offensive foul
Deflections: When a defender separates the offensive player from the ball without causing a turnover (in other words, the defender pokes the ball away but the offensive team retains possession)
I want to know who leads the leagues in those categories. Because I think theyre more telling than steals and blocks. And I also happen to believe that Chandler would be among the league leaders in all three.
In the Knicks last three wins (at Nets, Celtics, Wizards), based on my count, Chandler had 21 forced misses, seven forced turnovers and nine deflections. I tracked those stats because I knew that a lot of the effort plays he makes plays that ultimately make a huge difference are invisible in box scores.
As basketball fans, we are trained to watch the ball. Very few of us are interested enough in the intricacies of the game to watch a particular player for five consecutive minutes when that player doesnt get the ball or when that players activity causes the player he is defending to not get the ball.
Worse, NBA stats that are supposed to prove defensive superiority are flawed. For the most part, steals result from playing passing lanes and shooting gaps. Blocks often come from the weak side, and rebounds (considered by some to be a defensive stat) can be poached by a point guard when his power forward does a good job of boxing out an opposing big.
Too many of us judge good defenders by how many steals and/or blocks they average per game.
Defense is more about team, and the stat-conscious might jeopardize valuable points in the hunt for numbers. Chandler, however, is the antithesis. He is content with playing his position on the court and doing a lot of his defensive dirty work behind the scenes when nobody is watching. Its not about individual glory.
Coach Woodson and his staff watch tons of game film and I try to do my own scouting and watch teams, Chandler told me. He throws out the game plan and if I saw something Ill kinda pull him to the side and well talk about it and we might try to find a way that we know will make the team understand it.
And scouting opponents prior to games isnt all Chandler does to make the Knicks defense click. During games, hes actively coaching defense on the floor.
I want my teammates to feel comfortable out there, he said. I want to let them know where theyre supposed to be and whats coming. I feel like if your teammates constantly hear you talk and they constantly hear a voice, they wont feel like theyre out there by themselves.
For a championship-starved city, Chandler is a breath of fresh air. The big money, riches, and the championship ring he won with the Dallas Mavericks havent affected his desire to win. He knows that it takes a team to win, and both team and winning are more important than any individual accolades.
Bill Russell was one of the great position defensive players. He got a lot of blocks but he kept a lot of blocks in play, Chandler told me. But I think he was even better at just challenging shots and making guys miss. Thats what I want to do most.
From scouting to coaching, playing, and idolizing, Chandler is there for his teammates.
And while those attributes might not be quantifiable from a statistical standpoint, Chandler is probably the NBAs Most Valuable Defensive Player, even if hes not Defensive Player of the Year.

CLEVELAND Amare Stoudemire said he is pain-free and doesnt understand what the fuss is about regarding how he and Carmelo Anthony will mesh.
Stoudemire will start tonight vs. the Cavs but Mike Woodson will limit his minutes to about the 20-minute range in his first game since March 24th.
The Knicks are 9-4 in Stoudemires absence.
When Mike took over when I was on the court, our record was 6-1, Stoudemire said. I dont see what the big deal is. Well get back to doing what we did before. We were 6-1 with me, Carmelo and the full team with Woodson taking over. Well get back to that.
Stoudemires back injury first occurred vs. Boston in the playoffs last April but the bulging disk did not appear to be a big deal when first discovered.
Stoudemire, in making his first extended interview since his injury, said his bulging disk became more noticeable after an MRI in late summer that extended his lockout rehab.
Stoudemire blames the lockout on his continued woes. He felt he wasnt able to properly rehab with the same Knicks medical staff that treated him last April. Once July 1st began, he was unable to use the Knicks medical staff and felt he wasnt prepared when training camp opened. Stoudemire, though, said he didnt feel symptoms from his bulging disk until the Detroit game last month.
I wanted to use the guys who were working on me but I couldnt, Stoudemire said. This rehab we took was much more aggressive. The problem with the lockout, you cant use the Knicks training staff. When the injury first happened in Boston (last April), I couldnt use the same training staff here that knew about the injury,. I had to go out and find other specialists to work my back. It was somewhat displeasing thing for me. I wanted to use guys that I was working with .
Stoudemire underwent a steroid epidural injection three weeks ago as the central thrust of his rehab and he said he felt better in two days.
Im actually pain-free. Im doing a great job attacking the injury and making sure everything around the injury is secure, Stoudemire said. I responded to (the epidural) great. It was the first time I ever heard about it so I did my research on it and it worked out great for me. It took me about two days. Once that procedure was done, I took more time to strengthen the injury.
Stoudemire admitted to being worried his season was over. I was definitely worried about the rest of the season, Stoudemire said. I didnt know about the procedure. I was concerned, very concerned. It was nerve-wracking because I didnt know what to expect.
Stoudemire nearly played in Newark but pushed it back two days. I wanted to get in better shape, Stoudemire said. So I did more work in the weight room, more cardio. I wanted to make sure I was totally healthy.

CLEVELAND - The Knicks (33-29) still have a chance at the sixth seed, but they would need a fair amount of help from the Magic (36-26).
Mike Woodson, whose Knicks trail Orlando by three games with four left, was adamant about not resting his players in an attempt to overtake the Magic, while also getting his players in rhythm.
We can move up as high as six, Woodson said after Friday mornings shootaround. Thats what Im reminding these guys. We gotta continue to win. Its not about sitting down and resting and taking it easy until the playoffs.
Orlandos magic number is two, meaning that any combination of Magic wins and Knicks losses equaling that number closes out the Knicks slim hopes of the sixth seed.
However, the Magic, which just lost Dwight Howard for the year, have lost three of its last five games. The Knicks in contrast, have won 9-of-13 and are activating Amare Stoudemire and his 17.6 ppg for Friday nights game in Cleveland.
Woodsons other motivation besides attaining the 6th seed and thus avoiding a matchup with Eastern Conference powers Miami or Chicago, is getting Stoudemire back into the rotation. Stoudemire has missed 13 consecutive games with a bulging disk in his back and will make his return Friday night in Cleveland.
Ive been on teams where guys are rested and it just destroyed what momentum you had going into the playoff season and Ive seen it the other way. I dont want to rest guys. I want guys to stay ready to play and feel good about themselves when they step out on the floor for the first playoff game," Woodson said.
Stoudemire said that the sixth seed is definitely within the Knicks grasp.
Thats something that we really want to attack and exploit so if we can get there, then great. If not, then we just gotta prepare for whoever were gonna play in the playoffs, he said.

"Baron looked happy as clam in #Knicks locker room late Friday night. Didn't seem effected by stomach virus. Theory is he was resting his hamstring. But the best part is Mike Bibby, in third straight game with big minutes, is getting his groove back. Can't guard anyone but definitely runs the offense with aplomb and doesn't take ridiculous BD shots. Don't sleep on him in playoffs. Woodson knows he's only got 20 good minutes from Davis a game. One hundred career playoff games for Bibbs. #Knicks "

ATLANTA Tyson Chandler said he is willing to sit out the last couple of games of the regular season to heal for next weekends playoffs with the Knicks no longer jostling for playoff position. But its not up to him.
Chandler has missed just one game this season amid a series of bumps and bruises. He has a mysterious wrist injury that still lingers and last Sunday he bruised his knee in a collision with the Heats Joel Anthony.
The Knicks have three games left Sunday against the Hawks, their final home game Wednesday against the Clippers, and Thursday in Charlotte. Their first-round playoff series could open Saturday, but more likely will begin Sunday.
The Knicks are a virtual lock to finish either seventh or eighth and face either the Heat or Bulls in the first round. Their pipe dream of moving to sixth and supplanting the Magic still hangs by a thread. Orlando lost 117-107 to the Jazz last night in Utah.
Chandler had one of his more invisible nights Friday in Cleveland and perhaps hes saving himself already for Miami.
I think its important for us for our bodies to rest, Chandler said. Its more important to rest and get healthy at this point of the season. Im going to talk to coach and see what he thinks and do whats best for the team. Im a little banged up. The most important thing is I feel great going into the playoffs. Ill see what he says. Its what he wants. Ive been banged up.
Interim coach Mike Woodson, who cancelled Saturdays practice, said Friday hes not in favor of resting guys, but wasnt absolute. He needs to get Amare Stoudemire in sync with the other starters. Its a tough call.
Ive been on teams where guys rested and it just destroyed what momentum we had going into the playoff season, Woodson said. And Ive seen it the other way. I dont want to rest guys. I want them ready to play and feel good about themselves when they step on the floor for the first playoff game.
Chandler, a lock to make the U.S. Olympic Team after Dwight Howard and LaMarcus Aldridge needed surgery, said his sore wrist is feeling better than when he wrote a brace last month.
Theres just little things, nothing is really, really bothering me, Chandler said. Its aches here and there.
Carmelo Anthony, finally healthy after battling a.ssorted injuries during the lockout season, is learning toward not resting. Baron Davis sat out the last two games with a stomach virus, but possibly also to rest his hamstring.
I dont make those decisions, Anthony said. You have to talk to Woodson. Ive been feeling good as of late. If theres time I need to take to get ready for the playoffs, its something that could be discussed. Right now I dont think so.

"If #Knicks had better shot at No. 6 Orlando, Tyson Chandler would've played today. But asked if rest is more important than playoff positioning, Woodson said. "I think so. For him it is. He's going to log some big minutes once we get started. If he tells me he's tired, I believe that. I got to respect that.'' Anthony said Friday he wanted to play. Woodson won't stop him. "I thought about it. He wants to play. He knows his body. I'm sure if there's any issues he'll tell me and we'll back off.'' "

" "Meanwhile, thanks, Allan! New York is without a true "shooting coach" (at least as far as I know) since Phil Weber left the organization, so it seems that Houston's been visiting to impart morsels of moisture on New York's various impure shooters. Iman Shumpertwas seen working with Houston before the Bucks game on March 26th. Since then, he's [mathmathmath] hit 21 of 54 three-pointers (39 percent) after connecting on 26 percent of his threes before that point. That's quite a bit better, and it's probably why you no longer find yourself cringing when Shumpert sets his feet to shoot. If we could get to that point with Landry as well, that'd be really, really, really great. Timely, too. Keep it up, Landry. You too, Allan."
Again, the backcourt issues, to me, are a glaring weakness heading towards the playoffs but with Houston's help it seems that they are getting more out of Shumpert and Fields and making shots from 18-22 feet is super critical to winning playoff games in my opinion."

"#Knicks can still move to six or fall back to eight. Sixers win over Nets got them in standings tie with New York holding tiebreaker. Both clubs have two games left. But Sixers have now clinched and could go in tank mode. Philly finishes with Milwaukee and Detroit. Knicks with Clips and Bobcats. Sixers have to beat Knicks by a game to get 7. Naturally, if Bobcats upset No. 6 Orlando Wednesday, well, we may not be talking Chicago or Miami anymore in first round but Pacers."

Note: Sample below may appear distorted but all corresponding word document files contain proper formattingExcerpt from Research Paper:
simulation, a very powerful computer-based technique has rapidly gained acceptance as a decision-making tool in business as well as industry (Wynn et al.,2007). The main uses of simulation in business processes are the improvement of operating as well as operational efficiency (Watkins & Hill,2009). The basic idea of the concept of simulation is to accurately model a given physical process on the computer screen by incorporating the various uncertainties that are somehow inherently present in all the real and actual systems. In this paper, we discuss how simulation can be used in judging the pricing as well as R & D. allocation of three different products (X5, X6, and X7) in an effort of formulating a better product marketing strategy that would see a company, Clipboard Tablet Co, make maximum profit from its sales operations. Our aim is to maximize the products' cumulative products over a five-year period. Also discussed is how Cost Volume Profit (CVP) and Profitability analysis can all be used in business in the improvement of operating as well as operational efficiency.
How the simulation process is conducted
The simulation process is carried out by first building a suitable model. The model is in this case built on Forio Simulate, a popular simulation software interface. The simulation is done in order to accurately simulate the effects of the actual sales process as well as to make clear any possible consequences that may affect the sales functions of the three product categories. The simulation may be done in a way that models the actual flow of individual product categories that the company deals on over an extensive period of time. The analysis may then make several virtual changes to the product variables in order to observe the effects without ever making actual changes to the real products or even manufacturing new products.
It is worth noting that simulation models can also be used in the analysis of the consequences of the alternative scenarios in the marketing and financial strategy of the said product strategies.
The use of simulation has therefore been indicated to have several benefits in actual industry since it can lead to great reduction in costs and increase in profits due to improved decision making processes. It is however important to note that despite the successes of simulation, the technique also has serious fundamental flaw. This is because simulation has an inherent inability to effectively evaluate the large range of possible options that are available. Simulation, Cost Volume Profit (CVP) and Profitability analysis can all be used in business in the improvement of operating as well as operational efficiency.
Cost Volume Profit (CVP) analysis
Cost Volume Profit (CVP) analysis is noted by Cafferky and Wentworth (2010) to be an important decision making tool for managers. CVP helps managers in understanding the connection between the cost and volume with organizational profits in mind.In our previous exercise, we contemplated going back in time and then coming up with the best choices regarding the manufacture of the three handheld devices- X5, X6 and X7. In this study, we use CVP analysis in guiding our decisions on the manufacture of the three product ranges.As Harngren, Datar and Foster (2006) noted, CVP analysis is important in the formulation of product strategy and policy. Our reliance of CVP analysis is based on the fact that it can help in the making of the right choices on our 3 product ranges since the year 2006.This is done without the need for concentrating on the beginning and end of each and every year's product performance levels.CVP as a decision making tool can be used in various ways. It can for instance be used in calculating the break even point as well as the special product price that would help the product to generate profits.In this situation however, our major concern is to achieve a berr performance of the products that the one achieved by one Mr. Joe Schmoe. Our strategy is therefore geared towards the building of a better strategy that can increase the bottom line. Our profit projection should be far much greater than the $954,830,241 which the corporation made between 2006 and 2009 under Mr. Joe Schmoe's leadership. Our strategy is aimed at helping the corporation bag over 100M in profits. This fete should be realized by following the profit distribution strategy over a four-year period as shown in the diagram below. This profit distribution strategy was arrived at after an in-depth examination of the profit that the firm made under Mr. Joe's leadership (In Time Wrap 1 and 2). A review of the outcomes of Time Wrap 1 indicates that X7 as a product requires a lot of efforts in the coming years since it is the future of the corporation's clientele. The R&D allocation for this product should therefore be doubled.Profitability ratio analysis is one of the most commonly used tools in financial analysis. This is because it can be used conclusively to determine a firm's bottom line as well as its return on investment. Measures of profitability are important to managers and investors who place their money in the company. As Bodie, Kane, & Marcus (2004) noted, the concept of profitability ration is used in measuring the ability of a company to generate earnings relative to assets, equity and sales.These ratio as used in the assessment of a company's ability to generate profits, earnings as well as cash flow relative to the anount of investment.The most widely applied profitability ratios are return on investmentt, netprofit margin as well as gross profit margin.These ratios are important since they indicate the level of a company's performance in activities related to profit generation. Groppelli and Ehsan (2000) noted that profitability analysis comprises of a core set of profitability/bottom-line ratios that are critical to the analysis of all investments.
A review of the products
In this section, a review of the product characteristics is carried out. Also included in this review are the product life cycles and how the products stack up in regard to price and performance. The products X5, X6, and X7 are all tablets. A review of the sales and performance parameter for the three products indicates a variation over the years. However, a cumulative consideration of these parameters indicates that X6 has the highest price index followed by X5 and then X7 comes last. Se Figure 1 below.
The performance of the three periodic also shows a periodic variation over the years. However, a cumulative outlook of the same indicates that the best performing products over the five-year period are X5 and X6 while the worst performing one is X7. This is indicated in Figure 2 below.
Financial review of the products
The sales of the table X5 would see a considerable variation over the years. The sales would continuously increase 968979 to 1647592 to 2145622 and then see a reduction to 1853177 and then 963776 followed by the lowest figure of 614026. This reduction in sales figures can be attributed to the change sin market saturation levels of the years. The costs, profitability, unit prices as well as unit margins follows the same pattern due to their direct link with sales function.
The sales of X6 will also see a continuous rise from the 2011 figure of 562961 to the highest figure of 2364061 in 2014 and then sharply reduce to 1118142.This too is attributed to the changing levels of market saturation for this particular product. The costs, profitability, unit prices as well as unit margins follows the same pattern due to their direct link with sales function.
The sales of X7 see a continuous steady rise from zero (2011) to 479827 (2015).This can be attributed to its futuristic design elements as well as a relatively low level of…[continue]

Good independent cafe with a nice vibe. Had some hearty soup on a cold December day. A little cramped inside but that's part of the quirky charm.
Fantastic cafe with lovely staff and atmosphere. There was a vast selection of gluten free options, with delicious lunch/ brunch items and great selection of cakes. A must visit for anyone eating gluten free!
A perfect place for lunch. I visited on a Saturday lunchtime with my eldest son. We ate ciabatta's, one with goats cheese and relish, one with haloumi and pesto plus delicious fresh and vibrant salads. Lovely staff and great service. There is also a really fun small play area for young children, beautifully designed to look like a boat. I...
The cafe is very small and is 'shabby chic' I found it to be cosy but my boyfriend about suffocated with the heat.
For vegans there are lots of drinks options, we asked for iced soya lattes and received a small glass mug with said latte in and some ice cubes. I feel they could have given us proper glasses....
We recently visited this café as my cousin needs special food. This café has a big choice of gluten free, very tasty cake- even black forest.
Dropped in for a bit of breckie on Sunday morning as had great reviews on Trip Advisor. Definitely worthy of the rating, fantastic little place, food was great and staff friendly.
I stopped off at this cafe with my partner for an afternoon tea and it did exactly what it said on the tin! Arty decor and good freshly prepared food was a nice shelter from the bracing sea air outside! A lovely little coffee shop with hearty food and fantastic loose leaf tea! A must for cream scone!
After walking round Lyme for hours in the wind, I was so glad to stumble upon this little cafe! The decor was fun, and the staff were very welcoming. We had lovely hot chocolates (if you like dark chocolate - go for the darkest one they offer!) and a delicious almond cookie. Such a good little pit stop.
Very quirky little coffee shop , with vegan and gluten free options which I loved as I can only have gluten free bread . But be prepared for a long wait as its always very popular and busy , it took 20 minutes just to get the pot of tea and a coffee , and another 30 mins for our...
Despite its tiredness, I like this quirky place. The food is really good and the coffee sublime. The dressing on the salad is especially good but avoid asking what the recipe is because you might get a short (bordering on rude) reply from the main man. Waiting staff are great. Well worth a visit.

Assuming the announcement was not expected, what effect, other things held constant, would that have on bond prices and interest rates?1) Prices and interest rates would both rise.2) Prices would rise and interest rates would decline.3) Prices and interest rates would both decline.4) There would be no changes in either prices or interest rates.5) Prices would decline and interest rates would rise.Question 7Which of the following statements is CORRECT?1) Corporations are at a disadvantage relative to partnerships because they have to file more reports to state and federal agencies, including the Securities and Exchange Administration, even if they are not publicly owned2) In a regular partnership, liability for the firm?s debts is limited to the amount a particular partner has invested in the business3) A fast-growth company would be more likely to set up as a partnership for its business organization than would a slow-growth company4) Partnerships have difficulty attracting capital in part because of their unlimited liability, the lack of impermanence of the organization, and difficulty in transferring ownership5) A major disadvantage of a partnership relative to a corporation as a form of business organization is the high cost and practical difficulty of its formationQuestion 8Which of the following statements is CORRECT?1) In a regular partnership, liability for other partners? misdeeds is limited to the amount of a particular partner?s investment in the business2) Partnerships have more difficulty attracting large amounts of capital than corporations because of such factors as unlimited liability, the need to reorganize when a partner dies, and the illiquidity (difficulty buying and selling) of partnership interests3) A slow-growth company, with little need for new capital, would be more likely to organize as a corporation than would a faster growing company4) In a limited partnership, the limited partners have voting control, while the general partner has operating control over the business. Also, the limited partners are individually responsible, on a pro rata basis, for the firm?s debts in the event of bankruptcy.5) A major disadvantage of all partnerships relative to all corporations is the fact that federal income taxes must be paid by the partners rather than by the firm itselfQuestion 9Which of the following statements is CORRECT?1) If you purchase 100 shares of Disney stock from your brother-in-law, this is an example of a primary market transaction.2) If Disney issues additional shares of common stock through an investment banker, this would be a secondary market transaction.3) The NYSE is an example of an over-the-counter market.4) Only institutions, and not individuals, can engage in derivative market transactions.5) As they are generally defined, money market transactions involve debt securities with maturities of less than one yearQuestion 10Which of the following factors would be most likely to lead to an increase in interest rates in the economy?1) Households reduce their consumption and increase their savings2) The Federal Reserve decides to try to stimulate the economy.3) There is a decrease in expected inflation4) The economy falls into a recession5) Most businesses decide to modernize and expand their manufacturing capacity, and to install new equipment to reduce labor costsQuestion 11Which of the following statements is CORRECT?1) Hedge funds are legal in Europe and Asia, but they are not permitted to operate in the United States2) Hedge funds have more in common with commercial banks than with any other type of financial institution3) Hedge funds have more in common with investment banks than with any other type of financial institution4) Hedge funds are legal in the United States, but they are not permitted to operate in Europe or Asia5) The justification for the ?light? regulation of hedge funds is that only ?sophisticated? investors with high net worths and high incomes are permitted to invest in these funds, and such investors supposedly can do the necessary ?due diligence? on their own rather than have it done by the SEC or some other regulatorQuestion 12Which of the following statements is CORRECT?1) The New York Stock Exchange is an auction market with a physical location2) Capital market transactions involve only the purchase and sale of equity securities, i.e., common stocks3) If an investor sells shares of stock through a broker, then this would be a primary market transaction.4) Consumer automobile loans are evidenced by legal documents called ?promissory notes,? and these individual notes are traded in the money market5) Consumer automobile loans are evidenced by legal documents called ?promissory notes,? and these individual notes are traded in the money marketQuestion 13Which of the following statements is CORRECT?1) The corporate bylaws are a standard set of rules established by the state of incorporation. These rules are identical for all corporations in the state, and their purpose is to ensure that the firm?s managers run the firm in accordance with state laws2) The corporate charter is a standard document prescribed by the state of incorporation, and its purpose is to ensure that the firm?s managers run the firm in accordance with state laws. Procedures for electing corporate directors are contained in bylaws, while the declaration of the activities that the firm will pursue and the number of directors are included in the corporate charter.3) Companies must establish a home office, or domicile, in a particular state, and that state must be the one in which most of their business (sales, manufacturing, and so forth) is conducted4) Attorney fees are generally involved when a company develops its charter and bylaws, but since these documents are voluntary, a new corporation can avoid these costs by deciding not to have either a charter or bylaws5) The corporate charter is concerned with things like what business the company will engage in, whereas the bylaws are concerned with things like procedures for electing the board of directorsQuestion 14Which of the following statements is CORRECT?1) If expected inflation increases, interest rates are likely to increase2) If individuals in general increase the percentage of their income that they save, interest rates are likely to increase3) If companies have fewer good investment opportunities, interest rates are likely to increase4) Interest rates on all debt securities tend to rise during recessions because recessions increase the possibility of bankruptcy, hence the riskiness of all debt securities5) Interest rates on long-term bonds are more volatile than rates on short-term debt securities like T-billsQuestion 15The primary operating goal of a publicly-owned firm interested in serving its stockholders should be to ____1) maximize its expected total corporate income2) maximize its expected EPS3) minimize the chances of losses4) maximize the stock price per share over the long run, which is the stock?s intrinsic value5) maximize the stock price on a specific target date
