Hi,
 
I am drawing up a Business Paln and have hit a wall in estimating costs related to developing computer related hardware and software (also the operationa l components)
--monitors, mini keyboard, ear piece and software to interact. 
 
Below are things I am working on.  Any insight would be appreciated:
 

Technical description of product or service<-what does that mean








 


Operational philosophy<-dido


 


Equipment, facilities and real estate<--thoughts








 


Price/Cost model: Cost to produce product or provide service<--thoughts








 


Production: Movement of product from raw materials to finished product
<--thoughts


 
Product-Based:









o
Potential difficulties; plan to overcome

 


Distribution Chain and Strategy: Movement of product/service to customer


 


FINANCIAL PLAN


 








?
Breakdown of start-up costs and use of proceeds (e.g., hard costs, working capital, start-up); create a schedule of start-up costs








 


?
Capital Structure: Plan for financing the company (equity, debt, equipment


leasing); initial capitalization, if any.








 


?
Breakeven analysis and payback period (as supported by financials)
