Bauman's Frozen Custard expects to raise $70,000 in long-term debt with $25,000 from the owners. A short term loan of $5,000 will be used to maintain a level of cash necessary to maintain expected inventory levels and to buy additional inventory should sales be higher than expected. The long-term debt will be paid back over the next ten years. No other immediate financing needs are expected.
With sales increasing from $66,000 the first year to over $113,000 by year three, Bauman's Custard will begin to turn a net profit early in year two, and increase net worth in years two and three after initial decreases.
