EBITDA: $50,000


So the business breaks even give or take and the owner pays themself 50k? Did you miss a zero? That is a terrible idea given you have to be open 6 days a week and 8-10 hours.

That’s kind of what I was thinking. You’re only making $50,000 and have all the risk.

I would not want to own any convenience store. Chance of armed robbery is high.

That is what threw me off! They only have 4 employees.
I don't know where in the world the revenue is going?

Assuming the owner pays himself a salary, that would not be part of EBITDA. The EBITDA would be after salaries - including the owner's.

How much salary the owner is paying himself, or other family members, plus any other personal expenses ran through the business, is crucial to know to get an accurate picture.
