How much can you earn from a bowling alley?

The average cost of bowling game is $25 per lane per hour. After facility leasing costs, equipment, employee wages, and maintenance, your profit margin should be around 35%. 

In your first year or two, if you have six bowling lanes you could rent out each one for five hours a day at $25 an hour. This would translate into annual revenue of $274,000. Assuming that 35% margin, you would make a profit of $96,000. As your bowling alley builds a reputation, you could rent each of your lanes for eight hours per day and increase your hourly rate to $30. With annual revenue of $526,000, you’d make a tidy profit of $184,000.
