Murphy Business And Financial vs P3 Cost Analysts
Reviewed figures from each brand's Franchise Disclosure Document (FDD), side by side. Each figure carries its FDD year and page. This is not a ranking or recommendation, and the two FDDs may cover different years and location groups.
Before you compare
- Murphy Business And Financial figures come from its 2026 FDD and P3 Cost Analysts figures from its 2025 FDD, so the years differ.
- Murphy Business And Financial discloses more than one business format, so the investment range spans formats; the full report breaks them out.
- Item 19 figures cover the location groups each FDD names (Murphy Business And Financial: 11, P3 Cost Analysts: 3). Different groups are not directly comparable.
