I don't know about bookstores specifically, but in retail your occupancy cost should be 12-14% of revenues.

Ie for your rent of $3600/month you'd want to turn over $30000.


Look at this pallet. You would have to sell this many books x 2.5 every month (assuming 0.5 kg and $10/book)

You'll also need to find the cash for $50000 in inventory, so the store can operate, and at least a year of expenses. Let's call it $100k all up.

No, $50000 would be the cost price.
