What if Scenario Katie would really like to have a food truck to expand the business because there are lots of local outdoor events where she could sell her products. There is a used food truck available, but it will require some modifications to work for her business. Additionally, there will be extra expenses for operating it. The following are the costs for this that have to be accounted for - some are ongoing monthly, and some are one-time. She would like to pay for the used food truck over time like a car loan, but it will be at a different interest rate and term than her existing loan. New Trucks cost between $50 and $100K so she was really excited when she found an ad locally for the following used truck: Georgla Food Truck For Sale: $33,000,5.924 valve Cummins diesel engine, Automatic transmission -2000 Freightliner MT 45 with 363,132 miles, needs new tires. The good news? She was able to negotiate the price to $29,900 but will still have to buy tires. The truck car be bought on a loan over 6 years at 7.15% interest. To get it fully operational she will need the following: Tires $3600, Paint or Wrap to brand with Perez POPS $2500, Upgraded commercial freezer $3900, additional licensing for the food truck $145, Truck Insurance $650 monthly separate from the business insurance. 1 To operate this part of the business, she will need to hire 2 edditional workers that have commercial driver's licenses. She will have to pay these 2 people $15 per hour: The plan is to attend events and sell Perez POPS. Events vary month to month. But, each event will involve paying the workers for an 8 hour day which includes the setup time and working the event. At events, Perez POPS will be selling an estimated 1000 pops per event. Below is the schedule of events over the year and the aporoximate number of noos sold at each event. Approximate number of pops sold at each event: In a new spreadsheet, using the existing Proforma - add on these additional needs to get the food truck business started. Should Katie invest in this opportunity now? Why or why not. Add a textbox to the spreadsheet for your recommendation/answers to these questions. Recommendations: Show your client how these recommendations would affect the bottom line by recreating the pro forma for each scenario and applying the data analysis to determine profitability. You do not have to start from scratch, but note, these are completely independent pro formas. They must update accordingly from the data worksheets. Plan on showing your analysis and discussing the proforma changes that occur under each new scenario and how it affects profitability. Use a formatted text box (not a comment) to explain your recommendations under each new pro forma. This will be approximately a 2-3 paragraph endeavor
