Ivan Dimitrov owns an art gallery. He accepts paintings and sculptures on consignment and then receives 20 percent of the price of each piece as his fee. Space is limited, and there are costs involved, so Ivan is careful about accepting artists. When he does accept one, he arranges for an opening show (usually for three hours on a weekend night) and sends out invitations to his customer list. At the opening, he serves wine, soft drinks, and appetizers to create a comfortable environment for prospective customers to view the new works and to chat with the artist. On average, each opening costs $500. Ivan has given as many as 20 opening shows in a year. The total cost of running the gallery, including rent, furniture and fixtures, utilities, and a part-time assistant, amounts to $80,000 per year.
