The Ingredients of a Financial The Ingredients of a Financial PlanPlan
A financial plan consists of several ingredients• Expectations about the economic
environment• A sales forecast• Cash Budget• Pro forma (forecasted) financial statements• Asset requirements• Required new financing
We will focus on developing the pro formas financial statements

Financial Statements Financial Statements ForecastingForecasting
The Percent of Sales Method
• Once sales have been forecasted , we must forecast future balance sheet and income statements.
• The most common method is the percent of sales method • Many items on the income statement and the balance
sheet are assumed to increase proportionately with sales.• Each item will grow at the same rate (%) as sales and this
approach is called the constant ratio method.• Every case could vary so the assumptions pertaining to a
particular question need to be strictly followed.

Types of Assets and Types of Assets and LiabilitiesLiabilities
There are two types of assets:• Current assets are the firm’s short-term assets and
can generally be expected to vary directly with sales• Fixed assets are the firm’s long-term assets and
generally do not vary directly with sales There are two types of liabilities:
• Spontaneous liabilities are those that occur naturally during the ordinary course of doing business. These sources vary directly with sales
• Discretionary liabilities are those that require a special effort for the firm to obtain. These sources do not vary directly with sales

Lets analyze this method in detail with the subsequent example of Elvis Products International
The company will be operating below capacity in 1998. Sales is expected to increase by 10% Spontaneous assets & liabilities grows proportionally with
sales. Cash & equivalent levels are expected to be maintained at
the same as the previous year. The company expects to give $22,000 as dividends in
1998. We need to prepare here the forecasted financial
statements of EPI for 1998.

Discretionary Financing Discretionary Financing NeededNeeded
Ordinarily, the pro-forma balance sheet will not balance!
This is intentional, and the amount needed to make it balance is referred to as the Discretionary Financing Needed, DFN (or External Financing Needed, EFN)
This is a “plug figure” that represents the amount of discretionary financing that the firm will need to obtain in order to support its forecasted level of sales
In the case of Elvis Products International , the discretionary financing figure is $33.88 which has to be provided in one of the following ways (shown in the next slide)
9
Discretionary Financing Discretionary Financing NeededNeeded
The four common methods of discretionary financing
are as follows:-
Borrow more short-term (Notes Payable) Borrow more long-term (LT Debt) Sell more common stock (CS & APIC) Decrease dividend payout, which increase
Add. To RE

Most Firms forecast their capital requirements by constructing pro forma income statements and balance sheets as explained before.
However if the ratios are expected to remain constant, then the following formula can be used to forecast financial requirements
AFN = (A*/S0)S - (L*/S0)S - M(S1)(1 - d)
The AFN FormulaThe AFN Formula
12
AFN = (A*/S0)S (L*/S0)S M(S1)(1 - d)
AFN =
A* = assets that are tied directly to sales, hence must increase if sales are to increase.
S0 = Sales during the last year. L* = Liabilities that increase spontaneously. S1 = total sales projected for next year. S = change in sales. M = profit margin

AFN (Additional Funds AFN (Additional Funds Needed):Needed):
Key AssumptionsKey Assumptions To illustrate the calculation of AFN, consider the
given data of Funky House for 2001. Operating at full capacity in 2001. Each type of asset grows proportionally with
sales. Payables and accruals grow proportionally with
sales. 2001 profit margin (2.52%) and payout (30%) will
be maintained. Sales are expected to increase by $500 million.

What is the AFN, based on What is the AFN, based on the AFN equation?the AFN equation?
AFN = (A*/S0)S - (L*/S0)S - M(S1)(1 - d)
= ($1,000/$2,000)($500) - ($100/$2,000)($500) - 0.0252($2,500)(1 - 0.3)
= $180.9 million.

Assumptions about How AFN Assumptions about How AFN Will Will
Be RaisedBe Raised
No new common stock will be issued. Any external funds needed will be
raised as debt, 50% notes payable, and 50% L-T debt.
19
How will the AFN be How will the AFN be financed?financed?
Additional notes payable = 0.5 ($180.9) = $90.45 $90.
Additional L-T debt = 0.5 ($ 180.9) = $90.45 $90.
But this financing will add 0.08($180.9) = $14.472 to interest expense, which willlower NI and retained earnings.(assuming the average interest rate of 8% on the debt)
