Break-even down payment

Collect at least $0 upfront to stay cash-neutral on day one.

  • Down payments are $8,350 short of covering cost + recon on day one.
  • Annualized ROI is below 20%. Rework pricing or cost of funds to stay ahead of floorplan costs.

When to use this calculator

Replace the napkin math your collectors and finance managers use with a transparent, editable model. It is ideal for:

  • Evaluating new inventory segments (late-model vs. high-mileage units).
  • Stress-testing how different repo assumptions impact monthly cash flow.
  • Justifying higher down payments or GPS/kill-switch investments.
  • Training newer BHPH managers on capital costs and portfolio risk.
