Because of the long period of time without any revenue coming in, Iconoclast Studios has done an 18 month profit and loss projection.
Iconoclast’s cash flow projection shows $117,083 paid out, but keep in mind this includes paying back the loans and $10 million to buy back shares; which is earlier than required.

The balance sheet shows what assets, liabilities, and owner’s equity is in the business; both when the film shooting begins and year end 2009. It is mandatory in accounting for the assets to equal the liabilities and owner’s equity.
The breakeven analysis shows the amount of revenue it would take to “breakeven”. $177,238,000 would pay for everything the company bought, payback all loans, and all investors would walk away with exactly the money they invested.

The bottom line is that it is nearly impossible to predict viewers’ reactions; but with the experience and creativity of our people, We plan to produce mainstream movies with mass appeal. We will specialize on smaller, more personal, socially-conscious projects, and we'll work with the biggest A-list actors alongside up-and-coming, undiscovered talents and make a profit while doing it.
