Participate in a simulation of the purchasing function in a restaurant. The simulation will take you through setting initial purchasing levels based on forecasts of capacity, table turns, entrée sales, and ingredient use as well as adjusting purchasing of some ingredients that are selling out and causing customer dissatisfaction. You will need to adjust for different sales volume by day of week to dramatically reduce waste from perishables that expire. You will then demonstrate your learning by applying your knowledge to purchasing for a second restaurant to meet profit goals.

Write an essay no more than 3 pages of written content, along with a properly formatted title page and reference page (5 pages total at most). An abstract should not be included. Provide a summary of the experience. The summary will describe the scenario that was presented to you, the decisions you had to make, and your reasoning for the decisions you made. References will be expected to support, refute, or corroborate your perspective or reasoning. As a part of your summary, you will need to also describe the results you anticipated and what the actual results were.

The summary should be concise, providing an analysis of your performance.
