Modeled overhead is 48.9%, below the 60-65% reference band. Confirm that all normal monthly expenses are included before drawing conclusions.
Compare the same categories over time
Monthly operating income before owner compensation models at $46,000. Use consistent categories each month so trend changes are meaningful.
Owner compensation is excluded
