Total Number of kids: 750
Alleged Retention rate: 40%; 750 x .40 = 300 graduates
Average yearly tuition 2000: $5,000 x 19 months = $95,000
Average yearly tuition 2006: $5,950 x 19 months = $113,050
Average yearly tuition 2000 - 2006 = $104,025
Average income from graduates alone: $31,207,500 ($104,025 x 300 students)
Mandatory 3 month pre-paid tuition = $16,425
Non-graduates: 450
Average income from pre-paid tuition from non-graduates = $7,391,250 ($16,425 x 450 non-graduates)
Average stay of non-graduates: 12 months
Tuition from non-graduates: $29,565,000 (12 months x 450 kids x $5475)

Didnt Susie the Bullfrog claim no one was making any money at HLA, that it was VERY expensive to run?
I guess that makes sense what with the cost of legal fees to silence dissenters and the constant threat of lawsuit and all.
kid_thorazine:
i dont doubt that even with HLA cutting corners on everything, its still pretty expensive to run, i mean they do have to (occasionally) pay for foodservice, and im assuming they pay all of thier staff (most of the time) plus they (occasionally) have to pay income taxes when money is shifted out of the nonprofit organization. Also im sure thier insurance (which aparently they have since is wasnt mentioned anywhere in the law suit, has got to be really really really expensive. but yeah i think about half of that figure maybe a little more is profit, and thats a lot of money.
RobertBruce:
Not to mention the Buch's personal taxes and extravagent dinners.
kid_thorazine:
dont forget trips to europe and lavish gifts to educational consultants, not to mention paying for thier trips to atlanta.
