What Is a Franchise Fee & Royalty Calculator?

A franchise fee calculator helps investors determine upfront costs and recurring royalty expenses to assess whether a franchise opportunity is financially viable.

🧮 Example Calculation

Initial Fee: $25,000
Monthly Revenue: $50,000
Royalty Rate: 8%
Marketing Fee: 2%
Fixed Costs: $5,000
Monthly Royalty = $4,000
Marketing Fee = $1,000
Total Cost = $10,000
Net Profit = $50,000 – $10,000 = $40,000
Break-even = $25,000 ÷ $40,000 ≈ 0.63 months
