The business plan calculations will help you determine the following:

  • How much does it cost to start your business?
  • How are you going to fund your business activities?
  • What costs will your business incur and what should be your sales target?
  • How much working capital do you need to manage your early-stage costs?

You will also need this information later on as you develop your business.

A well executed financing statement should take into account all the investments and operating expenses required to start a business. These include, for example, costs related to tools, machinery, cars, rent, marketing, initial inventory and possible salaries.

The sources of funding need to cover all your funding needs, so you will probably also need to obtain funds from outside sources, such as a bank. Keep in mind that the start-up grant is not considered an actual source of funding, because it is meant to cover the entrepreneur’s personal living costs only.

A profitability calculation shows how much you need to sell to make your business profitable.

In the sales volume calculation you can specify the minimun invoiced sales target indicated by the profitability calculation by apportioning it among different customer groups and products.

The cash flow statement helps you ensure that you always have enough money in your bank account to pay the bills.
