Spike's Transport

Spike's Transport is in the business of moving whatever needs to be moved-wherever it needs to be moved. Spike has a fleet of trucks and drives who are all insured and licensed.

Spike has noticed that during the last year three of his employees all take off at the same time-the three employees were never very friendly prior to this year. All three work in different areas of the business.

While contracts are up Spike has noticed an increase in the costs of insurance and payroll costs and a decrease in accounts receivable payments. Accidents have increased slightly since last year and health insurance claims have also increased. Revenues are down.
