Franchise Sub Shop
Financial Plan
Our financial plan is available in the following chapters. Our numbers are based on past experience, knowledge of the industry, growth expectations for the fast food sector nationwide, and common sense.
7.1 Long-term Plan
Our long-term plan includes expansion into the Medford market in year two, followed by healthy dividend payouts in years three through five. Our goal is to build a business out of two franchises, and run each franchise as a profit center for the purpose of building wealth for employees, the community, and the Walsh family.
7.2 Important Assumptions
The SBA 504 loan program stipulates that loans for the purpose of purchasing and improving small business real estate will not exceed 7.5%. The loan is pegged to the 10 year treasury note +1.7%. The current rate for the US Treasury Note is 5.13%, so our estimated long-term loan rate will be about 7%.
The tax rate includes the Oregon State Revenue Tax, currently at 6.6% of NET revenue. We have prorated the assumptive state tax rate to 4.6% due to the fact that this tax is levied on NET revenue, not GROSS. The Federal tax rate average for our net revenue is expected to average 31%. Thus, or assumed total tax rate for this table is 37.6%.

7.3 Key Financial Indicators
The following chart shows the projected benchmarks.
7.4 Break-even Analysis
Our break-even analysis is based on a rough estimate of fixed costs. We predict average fixed costs to include the cost to lease the building, equipment leases, and various other equipment costs and fees. Our variable costs include the cost of labor, food inventory, and other product-related costs. Our variable cost estimate is $1.14 per unit, although that number may be revised as we review our actuals in the coming months.
Our monthly break-even unit sales are 12,754. This includes units other than sandwiches, such as cookies, soda, chips and other add-ons. The basis for this break-even point is an average of entrees (sandwiches) and add-ons. The average per unit revenue is $3.26.
