Venue setup
Every figure below is checked against published Australian benchmarks where one exists — and says so plainly where one does not.
The ATO bands turnover differently per format, so the same revenue places you differently — $671k is a high-turnover coffee shop and a low-turnover pub.
Your state selects the seasonal curve, and the difference is not cosmetic: on ABS household spending, New South Wales and Tasmania trough in May while Western Australia, Victoria, Queensland and the Northern Territory trough in January. Payroll tax thresholds, workers' compensation rates and public holidays resolve per state too — WA observes the King's Birthday in September, not June.
Is the name taken?
Checked against ASIC's Business Names register. That register is republished monthly and says nothing about trade marks, restricted words, or ASIC's discretion — so a clean result is "no conflict found", not "available".
Where the revenue comes from
Bills and average spend, not a turnover total — the scenarios are recalculated from these, so a quieter Tuesday moves the answer. Enter them as you expect to trade, not to match the turnover above; the two are compared below.
Average spend is what the customer pays — GST included, the figure on the bill. The engine removes GST itself, so entering an ex-GST figure understates your revenue by about 9%. Bill counts are averages across all five weekdays and both weekend days, including any day you are shut: the calculation always spreads them over a full week, so a venue closed Mondays should enter its weekly weekday bills divided by five, not by four.
These channels imply $0 a year — the same calculation the scenarios step runs.
Enter a channel and a turnover to compare the two.
