Jonathan Lark's lifelong dream is to own a restaurant. He owns a premium site for a restaurant across the street from the local university. Now he needs to decide what kind of restaurant to open. Recently, Jonathan began to investigate one of the fastest-growing fast-food franchises in the country, Pepper Roni Pizza. A Pepper Roni Pizza franchise costs $72,900, an amount that is amortized over 15 years. As a franchisee, Jonathan would need to adhere to the company's building specifications. The building would cost an estimated $1,093,500 and would have a $121,500 salvage value at the end of its 15-year life. The restaurant equipment (fryers, steam tables, booths, counters) is sold as a package by the corporate office at a cost of $210,000, will have a salvage value of $24,300 at the end of its five-year life, and must be replaced every five years. Jonathan estimates the annual revenue from a Pepper Roni Pizza franchise at $2,308,500. Food costs typically run 36% of revenue. Annual operating expenses, not including depreciation, total $1,032,750. For financial reporting purposes, Jonathan will use straight-line depreciation and amortization.
