7.3 Projected Profit and Loss

The following table will indicate projected profit and loss. We estimate purchase of new shoe display inventory, primarily for the seasonal changes in styles. Because these are displays, we are tracking them as expenses. It is estimated that new styles (especially around the change in seasons) will require regular purchase of shoe displays as part of the normal course of business.
