Show formulas, assumptions and basis
Revenue = units × unit revenue. Variable cost = units × unit variable cost. Acquisition spend = modeled monthly new customers × acquisition cost per new customer.
Depreciation = startup cost × 70% depreciable share ÷ 60 months. It reduces modeled owner surplus and is added back to operating cash flow. Working-capital change = incremental variable cost × 8%.
Operating cash flow = modeled owner surplus + depreciation − working-capital change. The 18% tax reserve applies only when pre-tax surplus is positive.
Current assumption basis: Synthetic field-service default reflecting equipment intensity, travel and parts working capital. No supplier quote, asset-life record or accounting policy is connected.

Licenses and operating requirements
- Washington State business registration
- Role-specific insurance and certifications
- Documented safety and data-handling procedures
Primary failure factors
- Certification, insurance or access requirements are underestimated
- Utilization stays below the modeled break-even level
- Downtime and rework are not priced into contracts
CATEGORY-SPECIFIC ACTION PLAN
Confirm role-specific licenses, insurance, site-access rules and rental alternatives; interview five operators responsible for the relevant assets.
Complete one paid, tightly scoped field pilot and log travel, setup, downtime, rework and equipment utilization separately.
Compare observed utilization and service risk with the technical model before purchasing equipment or accepting longer contracts.
