The fixed cost is assumed that Larry has discovered the other fixed cost incurred. The total investment is $800,000. The worst case scenario assumes that Larry got a total line of credit from the bank in the amount of $400,000 and invested $400,000 from other source. The Notes payable – short term and the long-term debt is (11.8 + 3.7) = 15.5 % from Table F in the handout. The Loan interest and payment per year is ($400,000 * 0.155)= $62,000. The Income data from Table F indicates that there is a 0.4% of all other expenses net out of the total sales which equals to $109,908 (5,700,666 gallons * $4.82 *0.4%) .
