Enter Basic Fixed Costs and Fixed Costs

The Breakeven Assessment Form includes sections for you to enter information about basic fixed costs and fixed costs at the restaurant.

The area for basic fixed costs lists the type of cost and a description of the value that you should enter. For example, for electricity you would enter the average monthly cost. When you enter values in the center column, LiveIQ calculates and displays the corresponding weekly and hourly fixed costs in the columns on the right side of the table. [Show image.][Hide image.]
