ATV and UTV rental operators typically earn 70-80% of annual revenue in a four-to-five-month peak season, so a 15-20% off-season reserve, per-unit fleet depreciation, monthly-accrued insurance, and a waiver trail tied to rental number and unit ID are the bookkeeping controls that keep the business solvent and defensible.
