What we have done
We have done all the function of our tool, and it works well to help Samantha make decisions.

What we’re doing
We are trying to simplify the information shown in our tool in order to make it more user friendly. Moreover, we are working on the format of our two tools to make them more organized. Therefore, we are trying to relate the total volume of items to the number of luggages so that Samantha could have more information to make her decision.
Assuming that Samantha brings all her tech items with her for carry-on, this well not affect the total cost, because her tech items together do not exceed the limit. Therefore, if the user selects a tech item, the weight/volume of it is zero, because it would indicate those

This will help her save money, because many items are very expensive in Yukon so she can choose to bring the expensive items. However some items that are expensive can also be very heavy so she may be charged extra fees, but she can find out exactly how much extra fees she is charged if she brings that. Therefore based off that, she can decide whether or not it’s worth it to bring an item.

What we’re doing
What needs to be done is the simplification of the tool that calculates the total cost of the trip. We must work on the format and condense the tool
What remains to be done We need to figure out a strategy to relate the weight/volume of the total number of items she chooses and the limitations we have to find the total cost it will cost for her trip.

Research
What we have done
Research which items are allowed on the carry on and which ones are not to maximize space in the luggage. For example, you must put your electronics and laptop in the carry on bag, so we assume that Samantha will bring it with her on the plane. In addition, there are many items that Samantha has to take in her purse and/or backpack her for the carry on, such as her cell phone, camera, external hard drive and headphones.
What we’re doing
No more research to be done
What remains to be done
No more research to be

    Whether you love going grocery shopping or it is something you dread, doing an end-of-trip review after going shopping can help you to save money. Before you leave your house, grab a notebook and pen. If you prefer, you can also take notes on your cell phone. As you go through the store, write down the brands and cost of the items you are buying. To make it easier to compare the cost with the same item in another store, record the cost in ounces, pounds, or another way, which will allow you to compare costs even if the other store does not carry the item in the same size.…

    Corporate Capabilities Since the establishment of the event in the spring of 2010, the Intercamp Classic has consistently shown strong financial performances and has raised a total of $291,000. Although Howard does not have a specific marketing budget in mind for the 2013 Classic, the budget is limited because, as a charity event, funds spent on marketing could be seen as taking money away from the charity and could damage the ethical reputation of the event. Past marketing initiatives, therefore, relied on volunteers, which has created poor quality results such as the 2012 promotional video and diminished brand recognition. In addition to poor quality promotional materials and low brand recognition, the implication of a limited budget is that marketing options within the budget are quite restricted.…
