I'm not sure exactly which planet you start on... but you do have a 200 ton free trader vessel...
I'll work out the running costs/revenue for you if you like

Free trader stats from book 02:
FreeTrader :200-ton
Jump Drive A (1 parsec jumps max)
Maneuver Drive A (can pull 1G)
Fuel: 30 Tons - sufficient for 1 jump and endless maneuver
Computer model/1
10 Staterooms (for crew and passengers)
20 Low Berths (for dirty ole low passage, or emergency freezing of casualties)
2 hardpoints. weapons can be installed here.
2 tons free space for fire control. (or anything)
Cargo Capacity: 82 Tons.

Required Crew:
Pilot: salary 6,000 Cr/mnth
Engineer: salary 4,000 Cr/mnth
medic: salary 2,000 Cr/mnth
Steward: salary 3,000 Cr/mnth
so a total of 15,000 Cr of wages each month.
Fuel: 500Cr/ton of refined fuel.
your 30 ton fuelage allows for 1 jump, and usually one does 2 jumps per month, so you'll need 60 ton/month.
that's 30,000 Cr/mnth on fuel.
Life support costs 2,000 Cr per occupied stateroom
low berths cost 100 Cr per occupied berth.
TOTAL RUNNING COST/MONTH: 45,000 Cr (not including life support)
OK. Revenue
the amount of passengers and cargo differs depending on population of the worlds being travelled between. (you gotta roll it)
you can do 2 jumps per month. so i'll X2 everything at the end
rough averages of a trip between two average worlds:
PASSENGERS:
High Passengers: 6. 10,000 Cr each. so 60,000 Cr. X2 = ~120,000 Cr. ok you just covered your running costs!
Mid Passengers: none can be taken... all staterooms occupied. (4 crew + 6 high passengers)
Low Passengers: 9. 1,000 Cr each, so 9,000 Cr. X2 = ~18,000 Cr
CARGO: (ships at 1000Cr/Ton)
Major Cargo: 15 tons. 15,000 Cr X2 = ~30,000 Cr
Minor Cargo: 15 tons. 15,000 Cr X2 = ~30,000 Cr
So, TOTAL REVENUE/MONTH: ~198,000Cr
life support costs/jump: staterooms: (10 rooms occupied) 20,000 Cr. X2 40,000 Cr/month
Low berths: 9. 900 Cr. X2 = 1,800 Cr/month
total life support cost of 41,800 Cr
TOTAL RUNNING COSTS/MONTH: 86,800 Cr
AVERAGE REVENUE/MONTH: 198,000 Cr
PROFITS/MONTH: 111,200 Cr
So it's looking pretty good!
