capital expenditures (CapEx) This total includes $129,500 in fixed facility expenses, $88,333 in average monthly payroll, and $34,125 in variable costs (175% of $195,000 average monthly revenue) The biggest cost drivers are the Facility Lease ($45,000\/month) and Utility Costs ($38,000\/month) You must maintain a significant cash buffer, as the model shows a minimum cash requirement of -$4484 million by January 2027, just before reaching the February 2027 breakeven point\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"image-section image-1_new_design\"
