Hello,
I am currently in the process of developing a business plan for a camp and I have reached the point where I am attempting to make projections. I am not certain where to start in terms of finding what the average costs would be for each item. Below are the costs that I can think of.
Expenses:
1-Salaries, benefits, payroll taxes year round employees
2-Salaries and payroll for seasonal employees
3-Program and Supplies
4-Transportation expenses (camp vehicles, buses, vans, leasing and renting)
5-Food and Related expenses
6-Insurance (Liability, Comprehensive, Vehicle, Workers Comp, Staff Accident/Medical)
7-Marketing and Promotions
8-Maintenance, Construction, Equipment, Building, Depreciation
9-Utilities (Electricity, Gas, Propane, Waste, Trash Removal)
10-Training, Education, Conventions
11-Reserves/Savings
12-Property
13-Debt
14-Sales/Property Tax
15-IT/Technology
16-Health Center/Medical Supplies
17-Cost of Goods Sold in Camp Store
Are there any other potential expenses I am missing? Also how could I go about finding the cost of these items annually for a facility that will be operating for 12 weeks from late May to late August, weekends during the year, and partially during the week every week of the year minus 4 weeks? Any assistance would be much appreciated.
