Flying Fish.com

Flying Fish is organizing its corporate information before it creates an extension of their existing business on the Web. Their new business, Flying Fish.com, will provide fish owners with advice on fish health, behavior and nutrition, and sell such products as aquariums, filters, heaters, decorations, and water treatment aids. The web site will also have capabilities for fish owners to exchange electronic messages about their fish and fish care with other owners.

You have been asked to construct a database for Flying Fish.com, organizing their information on customers, fish care products, and fish care books. The following business rules govern the database you are to construct:

Customers can purchase either books or fish care products; a customer may purchase many books or many fish care products, or may purchase none of each. A given book can be purchased by one and only one customer and a given fish care product can be purchased by one and only one customer.

Books are tracked by ISBN number and serial number, as well as by title, author, book type (type of fish), price, date received, date sold, and purchase status (sold or not sold). Flying Fish.com carries only fish care books.

Fish care products are tracked by item number and serial number, as well as by manufacturer, product name, fish type (tropical, domestic), invoice price, purchase price, date sold, and purchase status (sold or not sold). Flying Fish.com only carries fish care products.

Customers are tracked by a customer identification number, last name, first name, and fish type (tropical, domestic, or both).

The company would like to generate reports that show their customers and the products or books they have purchased over the past year.

    Aqua Fish Canada Inc Ai

    May 2007 to April 2009 Update Over the past two years, AFC has faced more intense competition, particularly from aquaculturists in Chile. In addition, Chilean output has increased the supply of salmon and the Canadian dollar has strengthened in relation to the U.S. dollar. As a result, AFC has been unable to meet its budgeted revenue targets. Stocks of unsold harvestable fish have increased, as well as the corresponding cost of maintaining the fish, and the company barely made a profit in fiscal 2009. In January 2009, AFC lost one of its largest retail customers, S&F Seafood, to a new salmon aquaculture firm, Nu-Farm Inc. This new competitor uses a sophisticated, computerized system for supply chain and product distribution functions. The system allows Nu-Farm to establish web links with customers, such as S&F Seafood, and to manage orders and deliveries directly for each of the customer’s retail outlets. This has eliminated the need for customers to make separate arrangements to receive and warehouse fresh fish, and to ultimately distribute the fish to their retail locations. In February 2009, 2,000 kilograms of fish from Site 4 were rejected by three important customers, two of which are located in the United States. An internal investigation revealed that two employees at Site 4 had neglected to follow established procedures and failed to reject some fish that did not meet quality standards and were not certified by the staff veterinarian. In April 2009, employees neglected to secure some of the net-pens at Site 3. During a storm, more than 300,000 kilograms of young fish escaped from these net-pens and most were subsequently lost to predators. Although the company’s property and liability insurance covers criminal theft of fish, it does not cover the loss of fish from disease, parasites, escape, or predators. In addition, there is no liability coverage with…

    The experience that came from the multiple field trips we went on was extremely beneficial and a great life experience. Within all three field trips, we surveyed freshwater and saltwater fish and identified their species. We had two trips to the Mead Gardens and one trip to the Florida Keys. To survey the fish, we used multiple fish catching techniques. In the Mead Gardens, to catch fishes, we used two separate types of fish traps. Furthermore, in the Florida Keys, we caught fish with a gill net. We also observed and identified the fish differently in both places. In the Keys, we went snorkeling and identified fishes from memory and pictures, but in the Mead Gardens, after we caught them, we put them in a jar and identified the species. Throughout…

    In 1983, “Bait and Reel” was established in Pennsylvania, by local fisherman and environmentalist Jamie Roberts. It started as a small fishing store that provided fishing supplies for the convenience of the local fishermen in the area. Later on, the business grew as people all over the county started to patronize Bait and Reel as they were induced by its ability to provide excellent services and extensive supply of fishing materials. In the mid-1990s, the business expanded into a superstore and the number of employees increased every year. To make business operations more effective and efficient, the management decided to install an automated computer system. With the upgraded system, revenue increased sharply over the years. However, in 2001, problems started to crop up; notably, there are discrepancies between the on-record and actual level of inventories. With these, the management began to reconsider its operations, particularly its expenditure cycle procedures, and seek solutions to its internal control weakness.…
