you will develop a 3-page paper in which you address the following.
1. Briefly discuss the ways a realistic budget will benefit the owner of Babycakes versus no budget at all. Be sure to use Babycakes as the company
and any specific product details in your explanation.
2. Prepare a sales budget for the LA Babycakes store for the fourth quarter of 2016. Present the number of units, sales price, and total sales for each
month; include October, November, and December, and the total for the quarter. Use one half of the Valentine’s Day sales as the basis for a usual day
in the new quarter. Use 30 days for each month. Calculate the total sales for each month for October, November, and December.
3. Create three new products, one for each of the three holiday seasons in the fourth quarter. Estimate the sales units, sales price, and total sales for
each month. Describe the assumptions used to make these estimates. Include an overview of the budget in the report, presenting the actual budget
as an appendix with all the data and calculations. Add these amounts to your sales budget.
4. The owner of Babycakes is interested in preparing a flexible budget rather than the static budget she currently uses. She does not understand why,
when sales increase, her static budget often shows an unfavorable variance. Explain how a flexible budget will overcome this problem. Use the
details of your newly prepared budget for the fourth quarter of 2016 to address her concern.

In this oil on material, the craftsman depicts the sentimental topic between mariners. In the closer view, Cadmus represents the mariner in white, resting on the ground while another figure is on him. Cadmus’ style of attracting this artwork outlines his spotlights on sentimental connections as well as just as each figure. Cadmus painted the garments on figures to be extremely dainty and tight as the muscles are semi-straightforward. The rendering of lines and forms characterize clear bodies parts in the work of art. The mariner in white outfit puts his correct hand on his private zone, showing his sexual wanted. The way the craftsman sythesis the body of a mariner in white with his left hand over his way while confronting the crowd could depict as he needs to have physical contacts with the figure on him. The craftsman utilizes the red, one of the essential hues to draw crowd consideration.
Wearing ladies’ garments and have thick layers of cosmetics all over, Cadmus characterize his body by rendering huge muscles, and men body type contrast with two different figures out of sight who are females. The craftsman intentionally painted the gay relationship in the closer view while other two couple is hetero show his primary concentration and subject are a sentimental connection between two men.
Paul Cadmus painted Sailors and Floozies in 1938. At the point when Cadmus was at 29 years old, his vocation was soared by a stroke of Mapplethorpe-ish karma. His animalistic artistic creation, “The Fleet’s In,” a scene of full-bodied mariners and women cutting loose in tipsy celebration, was killed from a show at the Corcoran Gallery Art in Washington by the interest of the US Navy (figure 2). Significantly lustier than The Fleet’s In are two other “mariner” works of art. With “Shore Leave,” brawny gobs grab guileful airheads, carnal direness worried by those skin-tight garments (figure 3). The most express of the three, Sailors and Floozies, slithered over by a grinning trumpet, alongside different sets stirring out of sight.
As indicated by New York Modern, The Arts, and the City, by Peter M. Rutkoff and William B. Scott, the painter had his craft on presentation at the Whitney “offered calm, basic, and measurable pictures of contemporary life.” What Paul Cadmus acquired with his artistic creation was contemporary since he indicated something that many individuals probably won’t have considered as craftsmanship and he painted it in an exceptionally intriguing way. The work of art was shocking; most pundits thought about that it was unpatriotic, terrible and tasteless in light of the fact that it indicated alcoholic mariners through the beginning of the Second World War. It was not the expectation of Cadmus however; his image is progressively about homoeroticism rather than enthusiasm.
