The investment advisory fee or management fee is the money necessary to pay the manager(s) of the mutual fund. On average, this fee is about 0.50% to 1.0% annually of the fund's assets, and is necessary to make sure that the manager of the fund can be very well-dressed at all times and is able to go on good vacations.
Administrative costs are the costs of record keeping, mailings, maintaining a customer service line, etc. These are all necessary costs, though they vary in size from fund to fund. The thriftiest funds can keep these costs below 0.20% of fund assets, while the ones who use engraved paper, colorful graphics, and answers their phones with pretentious accents might fail to keep administrative costs below 0.40% of fund assets
The 12b-1 distribution fee. This fee ranges from 0.25% of a fund's assets all the way up to 1.0% of the fund's assets. This fee is used for marketing, advertising, and distribution services. Yup, that's right. If you're in a fund with a 12b-1 fee, you're paying every year for the fund to run commercials and sell itself..

What Are the Costs of Fees Over Time? Looking at just broker fees alone we can calculate some of the costs.
The average broker charges 2% under 1 million in assets and 1% over a million.
Example: Account Value: $250,000 X 2% fees = $5,000 a year. $5,000 a year X 10 years = $50,000
Using the rule of 72 & estimating a return of 7% ($50,000 in funds) would have doubled in 10.2 years to $100,000! An investor would lose $100,000 in broker fees alone in 10 years! Therefore, it is important to eliminate fees! (This doesn’t include Taxes, Front-end Load Fees, Trading Fees, Administrative Costs, Distribution Fees, 12-b1 Fees, etc.)
What is the Rule of 72?
The Rule of 72 is a quick, useful formula that is popularly used to estimate the number of years required to double the invested money at a given annual rate of return.
(https://www.investopedia.com/terms/r/ruleof72.asp)
The Rule of 72 applies to compounded interest rates and is reasonably accurate for interest rates that fall in the range of 6% and 10%. This can be applied to anything that increases exponentially, such as GDP or inflation; it can also indicate the long-term effect of annual fees on an investment's growth.
The Formula for the Rule of 72 Years to Double = 72 ÷ Interest rate
In addition to all the fees paid, there is always a risk of funds suffering devastating losses due to a market correction at any time!
