Note: This comparison does not reflect any deposits or down payments on capital items (such as telephone system, furniture and equipment leases or utility and telephone service) needed to set-up a conventional office. It also does not reflect the time and dollar costs of managing the staff on a day-to-day basis, nor the cost of replacing the staff during absences. In addition, conventional leases usually require a minimum of three year term and may require leasehold improvements.
