Linux Script Question 2

I want to confirm I have the script in order, adding some features and listing all the functionality.  Let me know if there is a better process to do this.  Here is the requirement:

 Automate the following:
·         Directory and subdirectory creation
·         Files in each of the directories
·         Symbolic links from 2 subdirectories to their parent directories
·         Include branching to only execute the directory, file and link commands only if the directory or file does not already exist.
·         Set up an error log file with commands to route the errors messages into it.
·         Sett appropriate file permissions for the directories and files:
·         Directories
o    the file owner can read, modify and access the scenario company directories,
o    the group members can read and access the scenario company directories,
o    everyone else has no access.
·         Files
o    The owner can read and modify the file,
o    the group members can only read the file
o    everyone else has no permissions at all.

Below is my script thus far:

13 umask 027
      14 test -d /ARI && echo "ARI already exists" || mkdir -v /ARI
      15 #
      16 #
      17 # Create Next level of Directories
      18 test –d /ARI/SALES && echo “/ARI/SALES already exists” || mkdir –v /ARI/SALES
      19 test –d  /ARI/IT && echo “/ARI/IT already exists” || mkdir –v /ARI/IT
      20 test –d /ARI/MARKETING && echo “/ARI/MARKETING already exists” || mkdir –v /ARI/MARKETING
      21 test –d /ARI/FINANCE && echo “/ARI/FINANCE already exists” || mkdir –v /ARI/FINANCE
      22 #
      23 #
      24 # The next lines create the subfolders under the second level directories
      25 mkdir –v /ARI/SALES/REG_1
      26 mkdir –v /ARI/SALES/REG_2
      27 mkdir –v /ARI/SALES/REG_3
      28 mkdir –v /ARI/IT/OPS

      36 mkdir –v /ARI/FINANCE/ADT
      37 #
      38 #
      39 #Create symbolic links from OPS and PT subdirectories to their parent directory
      40 ln-s /ARI/IT /IT/OPS
      41 ln-s /ARI/MARKETING /MARKETING/PT
      42 umask 037

Great, thanks for the input, I updated the script with your input:.  I think I got most of the points to roll out to Production.
