Introduction
The aim of this coursework is to design a new system for a company called Mig importers and exporters. This company imports a variety of textiles from Asia and the Middle East and sell them wholesale in Europe, mainly in the UK. Currently the company uses a manual based system to manage their finances, this involves using a lot of filling cabinets to store the data and invoices and then calculating the company's profit or loss at the end of each month. This method isn't very accurate and it takes along time to make any calculations. The new system I will design will model the company's finances and will be user friendly so that the user can be efficient.

They will also be able to fin out what effect a price reduction will have on their profit. This can all be done by changing a few quantities or a few prices and the formulas will automatically adjust the profit/loss. With the current system the company is unable to do this because it is impractical and will take a lot of time just to find out the results for one small criteria but with the new system answers to...
