Well they say 30% should go to your mortgage payments. That leaves 70% of your income. Also depending on how big your family is. If you have an average 3 person family you should dedicate 25-30% of your income to your grocery bill.
With a gross profit of 65% - 70% the maximum occupancy% (Rent, Utilities, Insurance) you can pay and still make it worthwhile is 10% of your gross sales.
No more than 30%
10-15%
Rent expense is considered an overhead cost, not a cost of sales since it does not directly relate to the merchandise you are selling. Any prepaid rent (such as at the beginning of the month) should receive a journal entry debit to an account called prepaid rent, and at the end of the month should be credited to rent expense. Hope this helps.
20 percent
Depends on the business but for most small business your total occupancy cost should never exceed 10% of total sales.
Only about 25 percent of your total income should be spent on rent. An income of $30,000 should spend no more than $2500 per month on rent.
Retail speciality rent should not exceed 10% of gross sales. Project a realistic expectation of sales to establish a rent you can support. Calculate your base rent on this projection and allow for a 20% error on the down side. Keep in mind the lessor must cover costs and realize a gain on the investment, so new facilities may not be within range of what you can support. Depreciated older property may be the best option. If your business is characterized by growth, you may want to offer the lessor a percentage of the sales over the base amount to offset a lower rent.
