What the numbers look like in Springwater

The arithmetic

A fruit orchard and farm market in Springwater deposits about $46,000 a month, of which roughly $29,900 comes from card sales. It takes a $32,000 advance for a renovation before the busy season at a 1.30 factor rate, so the total to repay is $41,600. With a 9% holdback on card sales, about $2,691 a month goes to the funder and the advance is repaid in roughly 15 months; in a slower month the payment shrinks with sales.
