Results

Some inputs are not valid numbers. Results below are from the last valid scenario, if any.

Cash for owner = EBITDA minus debt service, before owner draw and income tax.

Sensitivity to cutting price (Year 3 staffing)

Service tier mix

Price tiers on the same unit and cooler. Full service: staff kill and cut under the company's Custom Permit (Option B). Coached: the owner does the work and the company advises only (Option E). Rent: unit plus cooler storage, owner does the work (Option D). Each tier is a legal configuration, not only a price: staff hands-on work on a Coached or Rent job makes it a custom-exempt job with the company as operator. Whether storing personal-use carcasses needs extra VDACS permits is an open question. Not legal advice.

Presets: Full service only (defaults) · Balanced 50/30/20 · Rental-heavy 20/30/50

Labor check

Staff hours per head by tier times head, against employee hours plus 2,500 unpaid owner hours. Payroll still follows the employee hours entered by year, so a Rent-heavy mix with default hours carries more payroll than it needs.

No static cooler (Option G)

Presets: Rolling onboard cooler, 8 slots, 7-day hang · 8 slots, 14-day hang. The presets drop the cooler, sewer and site lease but keep the $300k unit price; a 12-16 slot unit is quote-only, and 24/7 generator fuel, a separate chill compartment and delivery trips are not modelled.
