You cannot start and operate a small business or project,
or make it successful, without enough money. Lack of cash
is one of the main reasons why a large number of small
businesses fail within the first year of existence.
 Many first-time business
owners do not properly evaluate and judge the amount of
money needed to get their small business off the ground.
Consequently, they do not secure enough financing to run
their businesses (or their
family) before the business
starts making money.
START UP

Start-up consists of the

process of starting,
regulating and
balancing the different
equipment and systems
on a scheduled basis.
 HOW TO CALCULATE THE COSTS OF
SET UP
Calculating how much money you will need to start
your business requires a careful analysis of several
factors. Make a list of the various initial costs involved
in opening your doors: those expenses that you only
have to pay one time.
FACTORS TO TAKE INTO ACCOUNT
• Physical location to install the company
• Headquarters equipment
• Machinery
• Furniture
• Decor
• Raw Materials
• Initial inventory
• Protection for the company
• Insurance
• Advertising
• Public services
• Licenses and permits
• Unforeseen expenses
You may want to evaluate your daily business and
personal expenses when determining how much
cash you will need.
If you are leaving a salaried job to start a
business, you should include in your
expense projection an estimate of your
and your family's living expenses during
the months it will take to set up your
business .
