I leased a credit card machine for a business but now that the business is closed, I no longer use it. I've asked the company if I could get out of my lease but they won't let me break it unless I pay the remaining months plus a fee. Am I getting screwed or is this normal? There is nothing wrong w/ the machine, it's just not being used any longer.

If there are any foodstall holders out there who have hired foreign workers, I need your advice. I am planning to operate a foodstall soon, and I need to know the procedure of applying work permit. I just want to hire one worker. This is the FIRST time for me to get the licence, what are the necessary things for me to do upon application at MOM? The main thing is my side, what should I do beside producing the licence? I hope you can advise step by step.

My wife is an extremely talented fashion designer (in high fashion). I am adept at selling and plan on selling higher end dresses ($40.00 retail and upwards) to smaller stores and chains (I prefer not to deal with the larger chains at this time nor do I want to compete with China). There are some things I know nothing about in this industry. They are:

1. Sales timing vs. seasonality of clothing items and how that selling opportunity window may vary with the size of the store or chain doing the buying. ie when do stores want summer items to arrive, etc. When do they quit receiving summer items? Winter items? Other special seasons?

2. What percent of manufacturer list do stores expect to pay. How does that vary by store size or item type?

3. What kind of return policy (to manufacturer), if any, do stores expect upon purchase.

4. Is there anything I should know about packing clothing for shipment?

5. Anything else I should know that I didn't know to ask here?

Hi, I am trying to start a really cool idea for a "donation station" for my school. We sell things, not for profit, but for donations to a charity of our choice. So, my question is: Should I sell a women's watch with sunglasses set in a pretty box or should I sell a His and Her watch set? Which would sell?

I have the worst boss ever but I have great co-workers. We enjoy working together, but our boss just drives us crazy. He always takes obviously wrong decisions and doesn’t want to listen any of our advices. Of course most of the time he’s not in the office and we do the business in the way we believe is right. But when he shows up is a disaster. He ruins all of our ideas and efforts, creates one big mess and leaves again. We don’t want him to be our boss, but he owns the company. Is there a way we can fire him, in case we all don’t want him there, no exceptions.

I've started working with QB 06 Pro and am shocked at the AWFUL state of their UI and unprofessional look and feel of the software. It looks like Intuit is the product of BAD Open-Source programmers the way they claim their user-customizable options have only 'their' options customizable. I know Accouting, Inventory, Bookkeeping is a tedious business but I'm amazed at the number of glitches Intuit pays no attention to despite having huge forums of users point them out and offer fixes. Is there a package that has a standard UI, reliable and standard (best practice) accounting rules and customizable options that actually are 'customizable'? QB seems to own the world for small-business bookkeeping and I can't believe the quality of their product. Any suggestions?

Like a library.
Kids will be able to check out hamsters, mice, rats, guinea pigs, rabbits, assorted reptiles and birds, try them for 2 weeks and return them before they become a hassel to parents.
Not dogs or cats of course, but the caged pets kids beg for then lose interest in.
Parents will buy a "library card" to cover them not bringing the pet back. That fee will be refundable when they return the pet. There will also be free pick up service.
Then there will be a smaller charge for each pet they borrow.
I will include care sheets and everyone will sign waivers for when the animals bite the kids or damage anything.
What do you think?
What would you pay? For the "card" and the rental?

Benjamin O’Henry owns and operates O’Henry's Data Services and wants to sell the business. I am interested in purchasing the business and obtain its most recent monthly unadjusted trial balance. I am willing to pay 20 times the monthly net income I could expect to earn from it and his asking price is the ending capital. After computing the net income, I came up with $6350. After multiplying this number by 20 I found that I would be willing to pay $127000 for the business. I computed the ending capital and came up with $144750. Under these conditions, how much should I offer O'Henry? Give your reason.

I would then keep half of the collected money and pay the other half to the company due the refund. (some companies ship a lot of packages and would have to pay someone to track the late ones). is this market saturated? is this a viable way to make money?
