Your team was hired as consultants to a small incorporated owner/operator painting company with annual revenues of $500,000, payroll, some inventory management, accounts receivable and job billing. 1. Your first task is to research the popular accounting software you have chosen. Your team should ensure your research includes the following key areas: a. Using Google, find the company's website and read and learn about the following: i. Accounting software features 1. Who is the target market for this software? 2. What are the features of this software? 3. Ease of installation or is it supported on the cloud? 4. What is the support offered for this software (manuals, training video, call centre etc.)? ii. Pricing structure b. Continue your research outside of the company's website. What are users, blogs, other reviews saying about the software and the software company: 1. Pros and cons of this accounting software? ii. External training options on this software (are there other companies that train users on this software?) c. Find some demonstration videos about the software. What is your group's opinion of the software? Does it seem easy to use? Is it understandable? 2. Produce a report with the target audience being the owner of the painting company on your opinion of the accounting software and if it would be a good fit for the company's accounting needs. Your report should talk about all of the points you researched under #1, and any additional information you deem relevant. All papers should be submitted via Moodle in the appropriate submission folder. The report should contain: A cover page with the title of the project and the names of the team members. • An executive summary of no more than 1 page summarizing your report to the client. • The body of your paper should be between 6-8 pages double spaced, 12 point font, 1 inch margins. You should include at least 1 page of references at the end of the report using the APA citation system (edition 7).
