Budget estimate

$32,000 – $120,000

The budget for this opportunity is likely to be based on the commission percentage of the gross receipts from the horseback riding concession. With an estimated 2000 to 3000 rides annually, and assuming an average cost per ride of $20 to $50, the total annual revenue could be between $40,000 to $150,000. The commission percentage paid to the Department of Parks could range from 5% to 20%, resulting in an estimated annual budget to the concessionaire of $32,000 to $120,000. Factors that may influence the likely payment range include the actual number of rides, the cost per ride, and the commission percentage.
