Although Goldman Sachs paid Heather $90000.00 per year, she was not satisfied with her job. She had loved going white-water rafting and skiing with her family in Utah since she was a little girl. So last year, she decided to open her own business: Family Adventures. During the summer, she takes families on different white-water trips, and in the winter, she leads clients on skiing trips. To start her business, Heather borrowed $100,000 from a bank and used $70000.00 of her savings. Her savings earned 10% interest. At the end of the year, she wanted to know whether her new business venture was worthwhile. The table below lists her total revenue and itemized costs for Family Adventures.
