Ques:- I was sitting in one of Chicago’s new specialty ‘Cigar Bars’ around the end of August with a friend. It was a Saturday night and the weather was fair. While enjoying one of the bar’s finest stogies and sipping a cognac, I asked my friend how much he thought the bar was worth. On the back of the envelope, how would you go about determining the value of this bar?
Right Answer: To determine the value of the cigar bar, consider the following steps:
1. **Revenue Estimation**: Estimate the bar's annual revenue by analyzing average customer spend, foot traffic, and peak hours. Multiply the average spend per customer by the estimated number of customers per day and then by 365 days.
2. **Cost Analysis**: Calculate the annual operating costs, including rent, utilities, staff salaries, inventory, and other expenses.
3. **Profit Calculation**: Subtract the total annual costs from the total annual revenue to find the net profit.
4. **Valuation Multiple**: Use a valuation multiple (often based on industry standards, such as a multiple of earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization - EBITDA) to estimate the bar's worth. A common multiple for bars might range from 3 to 5 times the net profit.
5. **Market Comparison**: Research recent sales of similar establishments in the area to validate your estimate and adjust based on
