Breakeven and projections
Net to venue at each sell-through, from the P&L engine. Breakeven row is marked.
| Scenario | Attendance | Gross ticket | Bar | Total rev | House nut | Artist | Net | Margin |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 50% sold | 138 | $3.3K | $1.6K | $5.5K | $4.1K | $9.5K | ($8.2K) | -148.7% |
| 75% sold | 207 | $5.0K | $2.4K | $8.2K | $4.6K | $9.5K | ($5.9K) | -71.2% |
| 100% sold | 276 | $6.6K | $3.3K | $11.0K | $5.0K | $9.5K | ($3.5K) | -32.4% |
| Projected 100% | 276 | $6.6K | $3.3K | $11.0K | $5.0K | $9.5K | ($3.5K) | -32.4% |
At $9,500 this deal does not reach breakeven even at a sellout. Renegotiate the guarantee or the ticket price.
