What is a decent profit? $45,000? $35,000? What is the figure you would accept as decent if you owned a bakery?

Why do you think that a new bakery/business in Wildwood would be dependent on villagers shopping there? Are there not other high density developments in the area and local residents from which to draw clientele? Might the bakery have business accounts as clients, also? Am I incorrect in feeling a negative vibe from you re Sweet Tables? Whatever might be a decent profit to any of us is probably totally irrelevant to what is necessary to survive to Sweet Tables.
