Your goal in this game will be to make as much money as you can within 30 days. To do this, you've decided to open your own business -- a Lemonade Stand! You'll have complete control over almost every part of your business, including pricing, quality control, inventory control, and purchasing supplies. You'll also have to deal with the weather, which can be unpredictable. Unfortunately, the weather will play a big part when customers are deciding whether or not to buy your product.
The price you set will be a large factor in determining a customer's happiness with your product. As the weather becomes hotter, and clearer (not cloudy, raining, or overcast), customers will be willing to pay more for your product, because it's in a higher demand. As the weather turns bad, there is less demand, and customers won't pay as much.
The amount of sugar and lemons you add determines the overall quality of your product. Most people will expect 4 lemons and 4 cups of sugar per pitcher of Lemonade, however to save on costs you can reduce this (and reduce quality). If you're more concerned with satisfying the customers, you can add more lemons and sugar, and make a better product that, over time, they'll be willing to pay a little extra for. (Also, if you plan on overcharging for your product, this is a good way to help offset the negative reputation you would otherwise build).
The amount of ice should be determined by how hot it is outside. Too much or too little ice will lower your quality, and your customer's satisfaction! For instance, at 50 degrees, most people will want about 1-4 ice cubes in their lemonade; as you get into the 95 degree days, I'd recommend about 12-15 ice cubes per cup, to make sure it's nice and cool for the customer. Another benefit of adding more ice, is that your pitcher of lemonade will be able to make more cups - more ice and less lemonade in each cup, means your pitcher of lemonade is spread out among more cups!
