Projected Sales and Profit/Loss

ALL SALES, INCOME, EXPENSE FIGURES IN US DOLLARS

PROJECTED MINIMUM SALES AND COST:

I will make this projection starting with the income and expenses for a single shift. It is now my opinion that the hours of operation should be opening at
8 (08:00) AM each morning and closing at 2 (02:00) AM the next morning.
The first shift will arrive at work at 07:30 hours each morning and work until
17:00 hours. The second shift will arrive at 17:00 hours and work until restaurant closes at 02:30 hours. At 01:00 hours a cleaning person will arrive and clean and dispose of all trash and garbage having restaurant ready for morning operations the next morning. Employees will be paid a daily salary paid every 1st and 15th of each month for the number of days work during the time period.

For computing purposes every month will be considered to have 30 days.

General Manager/Director----------------------------$1500 per month (per shift $25)

Assistant Managers (1)------------------------------- $650 per month (per shift $11)
Dinning Room/Service Manager (4)---------------$400 per month (per shift $20)

For projection purposes we will assume that our new restaurant will prepare
an average of 125 meals per shift. For the sake of ease and convenience we are going to project that these meals will be our most popular item on our menu which should also be the average for food cost. The meals served will be the
200 gm fried chicken filet lunch/dinner, including cole slaw and choice of potatoes or dirty rice.

Cost Breakdown for Fried Chicken Dinner:

Market Cost of Chicken Filet as of today 2.50 Lats or $4.00 per kilo.

200 grams of Chicken Filet------------------$.80
Serving of Cole Slaw--------------------------$.10
Potatoes or Rice--------------------------------$.10
Oil, Spices, Flour, Milk------------------------$.10
Total meal cost-----------------------$1.10

Formula for determining menu cost, remembering that Latvia has a VAT tax.

Cost of meal times 2.75 plus 18%. This meal then would be:
$1.10 X 2.75 X 1.18 ======= Menu Price of $3.60 In Lats item would be 2.25 Lats

Total Sales for our Shift will be 125 dinners times $3.60----------$450.00

PLEASE LET ME BRING ONE ITEM OF THESE PROJECTED SALES TO YOUR ATTENTION: THE FIGURES IN THE PROJECTIONS ONLY
ARE FROM FOOD SALES, I AM SURE YOU WILL AGREE THAT
NEARLY ALL "EAT-IN" CUSTOMERS WILL ALSO ORDER A BEVERAGE OF SOME TYPE, THIS ALONE CAN ADD AN ADDITIONAL 33% TO SALES. BEVERAGE COST SHOULD RUN IN THE 35% COST RANGE, SHOULD THE OPERATION BE ABLE TO SUSTAIN ITSELF WITH FOOD SALES ONLY THEN THE ADDITION OF BEVERAGE SALES CAN MAKE THIS A VERY PROFITABLE VENTURE. NOTE: ALSO WE ARE SPEAKING OF ONLY BRINGING 250 CUSTOMERS EACH 18 HOURS INTO THE RESTAURANT, THIS IS LESS THAN "ON AVERAGE" 15 PAYING CUSTOMERS EVERY HOUR. TRULY I BELIEVE THAT 250 DINNING CUSTOMERS EACH DAY ON AVERAGE IS NOT AN UNREASONALBLE PROJECTION. WE ARE PLANNING A SIT DOWN FULL SERIVCE EATING ESTABLISHMENT NOT A "FINE" DINNING ESTABLISHMENT. THE IDEA IS TO GET IN THE DOOR FEED THEM COLLECT THE MONEY AND PUT ANOTHER CUSTOMER IN THE SEAT.
It is going to be just a great eating experience; one that customer will wish to repeat time and time again.
