Im In the middle of doing a Business Plan.

...
or

Sales
_____

Cadbury Bar

What a sweet idea!

The manufacturer doesn't really matter; what matters is the price you're buying for and the selling price for each item, so you can work out your cash flow and make sure you've got some dosh from sales to buy more bars.

So you'd normally do it by item. Although if you want to be really simple, then you can just fix your margin on each sale and it doesn't matter what product it is.

And by the way, are you American?
