# Business Proposal for Emmanuel Women Club Broiler Project

## Executive Summary
The Emmanuel Women Club seeks to establish a broiler poultry project aimed at promoting self-sufficiency and enhancing the income of its members. With a total startup capital of K50,000, the project aims to raise 500 day-old chicks and implement a structured business approach to ensure successful production. The proposal outlines the costs, potential revenue, operational plan, and expected challenges.

## Financial Plan
### Startup Costs
The following table provides a detailed breakdown of the startup costs associated with the broiler project:

| **Item Description** | **Quantity** | **Unit Cost (K)** | **Total Cost (K)** |
|------------------------------------|--------------|--------------------|---------------------|
| Day-old Chicks | 500 | 18 | 9,000 |
| 4-Liter Drinkers | 25 | 70 | 1,750 |
| 10-Liter Drinkers | 25 | 140 | 3,500 |
| Feeders | 25 | 70 | 1,750 |
| Starter Feed (50kg) | 20 | 730 | 14,600 |
| Grower Feed (50kg) | 20 | 700 | 14,000 |

| Wire Fence | - | - | 2,500 |
| Sawdust | - | - | 700 |
| **Total Startup Costs** | | | **50,000** |

### Revenue Projection
Assuming the broilers will be sold at a weight of approximately 2.5 kg at a selling price of K35 per kg:

| **Description** | **Amount (Quantity)** | **Weight (kg)** | **Selling Price/kg (K)** | **Total Revenue (K)** |
|-----------------------------------|-----------------------|------------------|--------------------------|------------------------|
| Broilers | 500 | 2.5 | 35 | 43,750 |

### Profit Calculation
| **Total Revenue (K)** | **Total Costs (K)** | **Profit (K)** |
|------------------------|---------------------|---------------------|
| 43,750 | 50,000 | -6,250 |

**Note**: This initial assessment shows a loss. However, this proposal assumes that all chicks will mature and provides a basic framework. With good management practices and strategic marketing, this initial loss can turn into profit in subsequent cycles.
