Keep records that answer a specific question
Use a buyer brief, quotation comparison, acceptance record and cash ledger matched to church choir gown stitching.
This is a planning reference for church choir gown stitching. The order below is an invented teaching case. It is not a completed customer job, an operating approval or a prediction of demand or earnings.
The example offer and its boundary
Fictional CHOIR-265 stitches eight choir gowns G01–G08 from 32 m customer-owned fabric, with actual width/layout checked before acceptance. Group approves one silhouette, colour lot and yoke trim; individual lengths remain separate. G05 sample high-shoulder-to-hem 132 cm and finished chest circumference 120 cm are approved for that wearer, not a universal choir size. Quote covers stitching/trims, not fabric purchase.

An invented invoice-and-collection record
TRAINING-0265: a fictional order for the scoped offer in section 01, using 8 priced units at KSh 2,300.00 each. Buyer group: Church choirs and performance groups. No buyer was contacted and no order was completed.
Teaching invoice = 8 x KSh 2,300.00 = KSh 18,400.00. The selected input lines in section 06 total KSh 6,660.00; their difference from this assumed invoice is KSh 11,740.00 before excluded costs and tax.
For cash-timing practice only, suppose a buyer pays a 30% advance of KSh 5,520.00. The invoice balance is KSh 12,880.00. If the selected input bill is paid before the balance arrives, additional cash of KSh 1,140.00 is needed after applying the advance. The advance is counted once, not again at final collection.
