Original model walkthrough

See how the kiosk business model works.

Explore the original three-year forecast, including startup costs, kiosk expansion, sales assumptions, financing, and financial summaries.

Open the original model screenshots

Preview the original workbook's assumptions, reports, and charts.

Advanced version included

Add seasonality to your kiosk deployment plan.

The Advanced version includes seasonality logic and an updated layout for deployment assumptions, cost of goods sold, and operating expenses. It is included in the same purchase.

Open the Advanced version highlights

Review the Advanced version's deployment, seasonality, and expense planning layout.

Updates applied to both versions

Connect kiosk capacity to financial performance.

Both versions include updated revenue and expense logic, monthly and annual financial statements, a capitalization table, and a capital expenditure schedule.

Capacity-driven deployment

Revenue is driven by a kiosk deployment schedule built around capacity assumptions. Visuals show how changes in those assumptions affect unit sales per day per kiosk.

Fixed and variable operating costs

Plan costs such as electricity, refill labor, repairs, and maintenance. Include other monthly line items that fit your kiosk concept.

Monthly and annual statements

Review the Income Statement, Balance Sheet, and Cash Flow Statement to see the projected financial position and performance of the business.

Capex, depreciation & capitalization

Use the capital expenditure schedule with depreciation logic and the capitalization table alongside your operating forecast.

Build your kiosk forecast

Start with the deployment plan, then test the economics.

The original model uses light yellow tabs and input cells for assumptions, with blue tabs for summaries, reports, and visuals.

  1. Plan startup units and expansion

    Enter your starting kiosk count and acquisition costs. The original Startup Costs layout supports additional units at up to five selected times over its three-year forecast.

  2. Enter sales and running costs

    Build your base sales assumptions, cost of goods sold, and fixed and variable expenses. Use the Advanced version's seasonality inputs when demand varies through the year.

  3. Set financing and test sales scenarios

    Enter financing assumptions if applicable. Use the High, Base, and Low controls to test the effect of percentage changes in unit sales volume.

  4. Review the financial summaries

    Examine startup cash requirements, projected cash flow, debt balances, break-even revenue, and returns. The original Financial Summary also shows debt remaining at the end of year three.

High / Base / Low sales scenarios

See what happens when daily sales change.

Set a base sales case, choose High, Low, or Base in the Global assumptions, and enter the percentage adjustment. The revenue calculation adjusts daily unit sales, with the effect flowing through the model and its summaries.

Compare the resulting cash requirements and profitability to evaluate how much room your plan has for slower sales or how a stronger sales case supports expansion.

Break-even analysis & valuation

Review the sales required and the value of projected cash flow.

Operating metrics and break-even revenue

Review revenue by serving type, cost of goods sold, expense breakdowns, and the revenue required to break even each year based on fixed and variable costs.

Three-year DCF valuation

The original model discounts projected pre-tax net cash flows over three years and adds a discounted terminal value based on an EBITDA or revenue multiple to estimate enterprise value.
