Agribusiness Management Simulation Schedule
2002

We will begin running the Agribusiness Management Simulation the week
of September 23rd. It will run through the week of December 2nd as
outlined below. This will give us a total of 10 periods (each period
is to represent 1 year).

After reading the student manual, and being introduced in class as to

how the game runs, you will need to establish goals for your firm, which
are due as shown below. You should develop goals for the following
areas at a minimum, and you may want to establish additional goals:

1. Return on investment(ROI).
2. Increase in net dollar sales.
3. Increase in net profit.
4. Turnover.
5. Market value of stock per share.
6. Increase in net worth.
7. Market share.


The game will run by 5 p.m. on WEDNESDAY of each week, thus your
decisions need to be inputted prior to this time. IF YOU DO NOT ENTER
DECISIONS, VARIABLES FROM THE PREVIOUS PERIOD WILL BE USED.
