Real Disposable Income
and a Growing Economy have always been major
reasons for continued expansion of the
Apparel Industry in terms of real and
sustainable growth, the focus on real
disposable income. The CBO anticipates that
the current recession, which started in
December 2007, will have lasted until the second
half of 2009, making it the longest
recession since World War II they anticipate
that real GDP will have dropped by 2.2 percent in
the calendar year 2009, a steep decline.
Severe
economic downturns often sow the seeds of
robust recoveries. During a slump in
economic activity, consumers defer
purchases, especially for housing and
durable goods, and businesses postpone
capital spending and try to cut inventories.
Once demand in the economy picks up, the
disparity between the desired and actual
stocks of capital assets and consumer
durable goods widens quickly, and spending
by consumers and businesses can accelerate
rapidly. Although CBO expects that the
current recovery will be spurred by that
dynamic, in all likelihood, the recovery
will also be dampened by a number of
factors. Those factors include the
continuing fragility of some financial
markets and institutions; declining support
from fiscal policy as the effects of ARRA
wane and tax rates increase because of the
scheduled expiration of key tax provisions;
and slow wage and employment growth, as well
as a large excess of vacant houses.

Projections and revisions.
In CBO’s
forecast, real GDP increases by 2.1 percent
between the fourth quarter of 2009 and the
fourth quarter of 2010 and by 2.4 percent in
2011 (see Table 2). Given CBO’s estimate of
growth in potential output, those GDP growth
rates will narrow the difference between
actual output and potential output (the
output gap) only slightly. Growth of real
GDP will accelerate after 2011, spurred by
stronger business investment and residential
construction.

Congressional Budget Office Economic
Projections and revisions.
The rebound in
GDP and will also affect real disposable
income growth which is expected to grow by
1.2% in 2010 after .50% growth in 2009. For
2012 through 2014, CBO projects that real
GDP will increase by an average of 4.4
percent per year, which would close the
output gap completely by the end of 2014.
Even though economic activity began to
increase again during the second half of
2009, the unemployment rate continued to
rise, finishing the year at 10.0 percent.
Hiring usually lags behind output during the
initial stages of a recovery because firms
tend to increase output first by boosting
productivity and by raising the number of
hours that existing employees work; adding
employees tends to occur later. CBO expects
that the unemployment rate will average
slightly above 10 percent in the first half
of 2010 and then turn downward in the second
half of the year. As the
economy expands further, the rate of
unemployment is projected to continue
declining until, in 2016, it reaches 5
percent, which is equal to CBO’s estimate of
the rate of unemployment consistent with the
usual rate of job turnover in U.S. labor
markets. Reflecting the large amount of
slack in the economy, inflation will
decrease further from its already low level
in 2009, CBO forecasts. The core price index
for personal consumption expenditures (that
is, the PCE price index excluding the prices
of food and energy) will rise by about 1
percent (on a
fourth-quarter-to-fourth-quarter basis) in
2010 and by 0.9 percent in 2011. The overall
PCE price index will rise by 1.4 percent in
2010 and 1.1 percent in 2011.
For
operators just getting started this may be
the best time within the business cycle to
plan and open your new facility
understanding that with interest rates still
at all time low levels and marginal
operators going out of business you will
have accounted for the marginal efficiencies
necessary to not only survive against the
competition but to thrive as we cycle once
again into economic expansion.
Starting a small business is
always risky, and the chance of success is
slim. According to the U.S. Small Business
Administration, over 50% of small businesses
fail in the first year and 95% fail within
the first five years.
Whether you are
starting a new Boutique,
are looking to raise
additional capital to expand your currently
profitable Store , or looking to evaluate
and value your Store to sell, current
statistics prove that you will do much
better with a business plan than without.
According to Dunn and Bradstreet the primary
reasons for failure vary, but all of the
reasons come under the category of poor
planning. You are a part of one of the
largest Industries in the United States and
one of the most competitive Industries in
the world. Your management decisions will
decide whether your Store survives or
thrives in the face of increased
competition. The most important benefit of a
business plan is that it sets the stage for
the future of your business as you want it
to be positioned in the marketplace. A
business plan will make it easy for your
banker to take action as he/she gains
insight into the details of your Company and
the goals that you have outlined. Potential
investors can review your plan and decide
whether or not to make an investment based
upon the risk. You will benefit most as you
study and gain detailed insight into your
own operations. Updating and constantly
reviewing your plan will give you more
insight as both a manager and decision
maker.
TIME IS MONEY...We
have estimated that it takes an average of
100 hours to research, and write a
comprehensive business plan within any
Industry. Creating and compiling the five
year financial plan and forecasts including
5 years of budgets, income statements,
balance sheets, cash flow analysis, and key
financial ratio analysis can take more than
20 hours of work by you or your accountant.
Now consider sitting down in front of your
computer to edit and fill in the details of
an already written and organized sample
Apparel business plan and outline. Whether
you are starting a small clothing boutique
or are looking for expansion capital to open
your second Outlet, or want to sell your
multi Store chain, you will be able to edit
this plan into your own.
