Nightclub Saloon Business Plan

The financial projections for this plan are presented in the tables and charts of the following subtopics.

7.1 Important Assumptions

The financial plan depends on important assumptions, most of which are illustrated in the following table.

The key underlying assumptions are:

• We assume a slow-growth economy of five percent the first year, and three percent thereafter, without major recession.
• We assume that we will grow as managers during the process, this growth will manifest itself as flat line expense growth over the five-year period, leading to increased annual cash flow.
• We assume access to equity capital and financing sufficient to maintain our financial plan as shown in the tables.
• We assume continued popularity of nightclubs in America and the growing demand for high-energy themed and casual dining venues.

7.2 Break-even Analysis

Example Break-Even Analysis formulas are presented in the text below. Business Plan Pro’s interactive table and chart are still linked to the program spreadsheets.

Fixed Costs $X,xxx,xxx
Variable Costs $Xxx,xxx
Revenue (Estimated)$X,xxx,xxx

*S = Gross Sales

S = $ + [($Xxx,xxx/ $X,xxx,xxx) x S]

S = $X,xxx,xxx + [(.xxxx) x S]

S = $X,xxx,xxx

Break Even Point = $X,xxx,xxx

Average Nightly Break Even Revenues – approximately $ X,xxx
Minimum Nightly Required Spending Per Person – $8.75 + $9.75 = $18.50
Minimum Nightly Required Incoming Traffic – Xxx
