Agenda• Accounting• Finance• Operations• Marketing• Economics

Accounting• Purpose: account for and communicate• Necessarily “backwards looking”
Prof. Mark Lang: “What’s the difference between an African village market and WalMart?”
ACCOUNTING ● FINANCE ● OPERATIONS ● MARKETING ● ECONOMICS

Financial Statements
3 Communications Pieces:• Balance Sheet• Income Statement• Cash Flow Statement
ACCOUNTING ● FINANCE ● OPERATIONS ● MARKETING ● ECONOMICS
5
Accounting: All Three
Income StatementCash Flow Statement
Balance Sheet CocaCola 2009
6
Balance Sheet
• Snapshot• Assets and liabilities• No income
• Not very relevant for startups
Like a bank statement summary: shows what you have now
7
Income Statement
• Official accounting of income (e.g., for IRS or SEC)
• Complications for startups…
Like a pay check or tax return: shows where things went
8
Income Statement: Complications• When can you book sales and how do
you handle inventory?
(cash vs. accrual)(accounts receivable and inventory)
• How do you handle loan payments?(interest vs. principle)
• How do you handle big purchases?(depreciation)
ACCOUNTING ● FINANCE ● OPERATIONS ● MARKETING ● ECONOMICS
9
Cash Flow Statement• Accounts for those
things • Very complicated• Not for us
(anytime soon)
ACCOUNTING ● FINANCE ● OPERATIONS ● MARKETING ● ECONOMICS
10
For Startups
We “project” using income statement:
EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes,
depreciation and amortization)

Variable vs. Fixed Cost• Variable = scaling with production
– COGS (cost of goods sold)– Sales commissions
• Fixed = overhead– Rent– Depreciation of equipment– R&D
ACCOUNTING ● FINANCE ● OPERATIONS ● MARKETING ● ECONOMICS
14
Variable vs. Fixed Costs• Gray area: labor cost
– Temps → variable– Salaried → fixed
• Ideal business model:– All costs are variable, and you can get
income first (accounts receivable before accounts payable)

Agenda• Accounting• Finance• Operations• Marketing• Economics
17
Finance• Purpose: planning how to invest• Invest = put some in now, get some back• “Forward looking”• Key topics:
– DCF, NPV, ROI– Liquidity– Debt and equity
ACCOUNTING ● FINANCE ● OPERATIONS ● MARKETING ● ECONOMICS
18
Finance• Time value of money: DCF
(discounted cash flow)
• Pricing risk with a discount rate (r)
PV (present value) = FV (future value)
(1+r)
ACCOUNTING ● FINANCE ● OPERATIONS ● MARKETING ● ECONOMICS
19
What is the value of:
“Two Birds in the Bush”
ACCOUNTING ● FINANCE ● OPERATIONS ● MARKETING ● ECONOMICS
20
Bird in the Hand
PV (present value) = FV (future value)
(1+r)
ACCOUNTING ● FINANCE ● OPERATIONS ● MARKETING ● ECONOMICS
25
Risk and Return• Higher risk implies higher potential
return and higher variability (we may win big or lose all)
• Risk gets converted into discount rate– Bird in the hand | r = 100%– Savings account | r = 1.5%
26
Why bother?We have to decide how much we are
willing to invest based on:• Expected risk: r• Expected end value: FV
ACCOUNTING ● FINANCE ● OPERATIONS ● MARKETING ● ECONOMICS
Examples: risk and r
Savings Account 0.75%
Money Market 1.5%
Bonds 4.0%
Public Stocks 7.0%
Tech Startup 10X !
More Examples: risk and r
Variable Mortgage 2.5%
Fixed Mortgage 3.5%
Home Equity Line 10%
Credit Card 17%
29
Another Lens: NPV• Net Present Value• The current value of future cash flows• Minus the investment required
PV – Investment = NPV
Example: $100 - $90 = $10
ACCOUNTING ● FINANCE ● OPERATIONS ● MARKETING ● ECONOMICS

ROIReturn on Investment
ROI =Gain
÷ # yearsInvestment
ACCOUNTING ● FINANCE ● OPERATIONS ● MARKETING ● ECONOMICS
Note: does not account for compounding.
31
ROI
Examples
$50÷ 5 years = ROI ~10%
$100
$1.50÷ 1 year = ROI 1.5%
$100
ACCOUNTING ● FINANCE ● OPERATIONS ● MARKETING ● ECONOMICS
32
ROI Example• $50,000 to start venture• Sold in year 5 for $150,000• ROI
– $100,000 ÷ $50,000 ÷ 5– 40% over 5 years
• Or “3X return in 5 years”
How can we estimate the exit value?
ACCOUNTING ● FINANCE ● OPERATIONS ● MARKETING ● ECONOMICS
33
Estimate Value = “Valuation”• #1 = find comparables• #2 = use multiples
• But remember– Depends on what someone is willing to pay
(= “market driven”)– Illiquid asset
ACCOUNTING ● FINANCE ● OPERATIONS ● MARKETING ● ECONOMICS
34
Liquidity• Liquid: spend/trade easily• Illiquid: takes days/months/years to trade
• Cash: liquid• Equity: illiquid
ACCOUNTING ● FINANCE ● OPERATIONS ● MARKETING ● ECONOMICS
35
Why bother?We have to decide how much we are
willing to invest based on:• Expected risk: r• Expected end value: FV
ACCOUNTING ● FINANCE ● OPERATIONS ● MARKETING ● ECONOMICS
36
Why not bother?• For startups, the odds of success and
potential future values are wildly variable• So we should know these concepts exist,
create goals, but don’t get married to the specific numbers

Complexity: Which is Better?
52
Complexity• SKUs (stock keeping unit): code for each
product• More SKUs = more complexity =
exponentially more variability = death• Simple is king
ACCOUNTING ● FINANCE ● OPERATIONS ● MARKETING ● ECONOMICS

54
Core Competency• You can’t be good at everything• Anything you cannot dominate…
…outsource!
ACCOUNTING ● FINANCE ● OPERATIONS ● MARKETING ● ECONOMICS
55
Capacity and Queues
ACCOUNTING ● FINANCE ● OPERATIONS ● MARKETING ● ECONOMICS
56
Capacity and Queues • Lookout for bottlenecks (where in the
production line you have limited capacity)– MBAs call these “Herbies,” from The Goal
• Bottlenecks = HUGE queues• General rule: capacity should be well
below 90%

Pricing Strategies
Cost Plus Going Rate PremiumSet prices to cover variable costs and a portion of fixed costs.
Create pricing wars between competitors who offer the sameor similar.
Price to match customers’ enhanced perception.
Penetration Opportunistic PredatoryPrice at a loss to gain market share.
Set premium prices for products/ services in high demand with short supplies.
Price-cutting prevents others from entering the market.

Economics GlossaryEconomies of
scaleThe increase in efficiency as size increases
Utility Measure of satisfaction
Commodity Same no matter who produces it; must compete on price
Sunk cost Amount already spent; should not be factored into future return potential
Opportunity cost
Consider the lost income of other activities; e.g., add lost income to cost of going to school
