Recently, your senior management team is considering the possibility of getting into a brand new market for the business – the consumer wearables market.

The device should not retail at more than $35 and offer the following features:

Pedometer count, Distance count, Calories Burned count

All assignments must adhere to APA style, to include (but not limited to) the following aspects: document formatting, line spacing, page numbering, in-text citation format, and referencing requirements. Assignments do not need a table of content or abstract, but you do need a title page and a reference page. Students should use the APA Manual (6th edition) to assist in their demonstration of competency in adhering to APA format. For in-text citations and reference page formatting, you will find chapters 6 and 7 of the APA manual particularly helpful.
