Revenue & Cost Drivers
[Company Name]’s revenues will come primarily fromnew homes. 15% of revenue will come from renovation and additions. For each new home project, half of the fee is expected at signing and half on completion of the work.
As with most services, labor expenses will be key cost drivers – including both salaried employees and hired subcontractor labor. Cost of sales, which will include subcontractors, materials, and direct labor for projects, is equal to roughly 75% of revenue for projects. This percentage is expected to drop with experience over the first five years of operation. Marketing and lease for the company’s office and storage space will be secondary costs.
