One of the most daunting tasks for any aspiring entrepreneur is writing a business plan.

This
document serves as a roadmap for your business, outlining your goals, strategies, and financial
projections. However, one aspect that often causes headaches for business owners is calculating
overhead costs.

Overhead costs refer to the ongoing expenses that are necessary to keep your business running, but
are not directly related to producing goods or services. These can include rent, utilities, insurance,
and administrative expenses. Calculating these costs accurately is crucial for creating a realistic and
effective business plan.

deep understanding of your business operations and a thorough analysis of your expenses. This is
where many entrepreneurs struggle, as they may not have the expertise or resources to accurately
calculate these costs.
