Profitability Analysis:
Return on Investment (ROI)measures the profitability of an investment and is calculated as:
Calculations for Each Year:
- Total Investment (Initial Capital): ₦6,280,000
Year 1:
- Net Profit: ₦8,180,700
(8180700/6280000) x 100 = 130.31%
Year 2:
- Net Profit: ₦9,637,020
- ROI = 153.40\%
Year 3:
- Net Profit: ₦10,932,565.35
- ROI =174.06
Breakeven Analysis
The breakeven point is the point at which total revenues equal total costs, resulting in neither profit nor loss. It helps determine the minimum sales needed to cover costs.
Breakeven Formula:
Calculations:
Fixed Costs (per cycle):
- Lease: ₦500,000 (per year, so ₦250,000 per cycle)
- Marketing: ₦500,000 (per year, so ₦250,000 per cycle)
- Miscellaneous: ₦500,000 (per year, so ₦250,000 per cycle)
- Salaries (6 months): ₦3,120,000
Total Fixed Costs per Cycle: ₦3,870,000
Variable Costs (per unit):
- Fingerlings: ₦75
- Feed: ₦675,000 / 3000 = ₦225 per fish
- Cost of Capital (33% of initial investment): ₦2,072,400 / 3000 = ₦690.80 per fish
Total Variable Costs per Fish: ₦75 + ₦225 + ₦690.80 = ₦990.80
Selling Price per Fish: ₦4000
Break-even units = (3870000/(4000 – 990.80)) = 1151.37
So, we need to sell approximately 1152 fish per cycle to break even.
Summary:
- Year 1 ROI: 130.31%
- Year 2 ROI: 153.40%
- Year 3 ROI: 174.06%
- Breakeven Point per Cycle: Approximately 1152 fish
These calculations provide insights into the profitability and financial viability of our modern catfish production business over three years, as well as the sales required to cover costs.
