Forecast

Key Assumptions

Our assumptions are detailed in the proceeding tables. We have planned for relatively slow but stable general economic growth and an interest rate on borrowing of 9.5%. Because our business is a combination of retail and wholesale our collection days may look somewhat optimistic. That is caused by our assumption that approximately 70% of our retail sales will be done on credit cards and debit cards. There is a three-day payment lag on these sales. We assumed that wholesale customers would pay on an average of 50 days and that in year one 60% of our business would be on terms. As we develop our customer base (at wholesale) this number is ramped up to 80% by year five. (Our terms will be C.O.D. on all opening orders.) Our payments to vendors are assumed at 45 days.
