Contract value

$900,000

Based on the contract document, the estimated value of this contract is difficult to determine, as it is a revenue-based contract and the revenue percentage is based on the total monthly gross sales. However, assuming an average monthly gross sales of $3,000 per machine, and an average revenue percentage of 7.5%, the estimated annual revenue for the county would be approximately $27,000 per machine. With multiple machines, the total estimated annual revenue could be in the range of $100,000 to $500,000. Therefore, the estimated value of this contract over the three-year term could be in the range of $300,000 to $1,500,000.
