The business plan that you create for your proposed business, hypothetical or real, your grade will be determined by the rubric below. Other sample plans, outlines in the text, are helpful to review, but this rubric will determine your grade, see every section and ensure your plan meets every requirement on this rubric. 
Given several good suggestions and the need to have a total of 100% for all elements of the plan here is what I am proposing:
Executive Summary  including Business Description   20% 
Industry Analysis   10%
Management Plan including Contingency Plan  20%
Marketing Plan    20%
Operational Plan   20%
Financial Plan   10%
