Sally’s Dilemma
Sally has been looking at properties for the restaurant with a realtor. She asks whether you believe the company’s financial position would support purchasing or leasing a property. You both have discussed the available options and issues that might impede the operation or make a deal cost-prohibitive. You explain that some leases are great investments for the property owners but not so much for the leasees. Leasing terms are often designed to squeeze all the profit out of the tenants’ operations. However, you both agree there are also Pros and Cons to owning the property. You and Sally agree to research the costs/profit ratio to determine whether to buy or lease the Boca Raton property.
The first step requires you to calculate the potential overall profit (A Spreadsheet layout works best in displaying these items). Here is the information you will need to develop the spreadsheet:
Gross Revenue = number of seats (259 seats with 90% occupied on average) x the number of meal seatings (3 per night; 6:00, 7:30, and 9:00 pm) x average meal price of $250 x 365 days of operation.
Food and service expenses are 68% of your revenue—additional costs, including insurance, professional fees, etc., equal 9.9 million per year.
Rent would cost $100 per seat per day. The cost of the mortgage is $125 per seat per day (based on a one-year term).
