Re: Bonanza and Pizza Pipeline

[Fairco Mini-Mart <faircominimart@turbonet.com>]

Reasons for not making a profit...increased cost of utilities, labor,
products used in the meals.  Another reason MAY be increased number of
"bad" checks and difficulty in collections.  Although I would think most
paid cash for the pizza slices.  Internal theft by employees MAY also add
to a diminished profit.  Finally, a decrease in the number of customers.
Many costs associated with operating a business are fixed such as
utilities, insurance, minimum staffing, and rent.

These are just suggestions and observations.  I have no "inside"
information on these businesses.
