About this title

From the Back Cover

Key Benefit: Threshold is a business management program that simulates a small business. The user makes decisions needed to run a small manufacturing business, managing separate companies in competition with one another in the same marketplace. The computer processes decisions and provides reports demonstrating the results of those decisions. Key Topics: By allowing participants to put management principles into practice, the simulation develops planning, organizing, staffing, directing, and business control skills. It presents the interrelationship of business, including Marketing, Finance, and Manufacturing. Makes financial statements meaningful since participants see how decisions impact on the income statement and balance sheet. Provides the opportunity to ask "what-if" questions and shows the results of those questions with the opportunity to correct mistakes in subsequent business quarters. The second edition of Threshold Competitor: A Management Simulation has been fully updated to incorporate the comments of users to the previous edition. Market: An essential resource that allows any business owner or corporate executive to test the potential of business decisions.
