Owning a McDonald's franchise can be a lucrative business, but it requires a lot of cash. The average McDonald's restaurant generates $2.5 million in sales annually, making it the second-highest-grossing chain in the US by sales per unit behind Chick-fil-A, according to QSR magazine. But to open a single restaurant, the company requires that potential franchisees have liquid assets of at least $750,000. Startup costs, which include construction and equipment expenses, average between $955,708 and $2.3 million, according to McDonald's.
Effective July 1, starting wages at McDonald's (MCD) will be at least $1 an hour more than the minimum wage set by local law, the fast-food chain announced Wednesday. All employees up to restaurant managers will get a pay bump as well. The result: the fast food giant projects that its average hourly wage will reach more than $10 an hour by the end of 2016 -- up from $9.01 currently. The new average will be $2.75 above the federal minimum wage. There's a catch: The raise only applies to the 1,500 McDonald's-owned restaurants in the U.S. It doesn't apply to workers at the franchise-owned stores, which make up about 90% of the McDonald's restaurants in the country and the bulk of its workforce.
