Retail Financial Plan – get control of your shop’s financials!
The Retail Financial Plan is an all-inclusive financial planning template for the retail industry. Whether you have a large retail chain or just a single shop – the retail budget template allows you to project financials for your company.
This is a great tool for owners/CFOs of retail businesses to forecast cash flow, purchases, and inventory. You will be able to see how changes in the inventory levels affect the company’s cash flow.
The Retail Financial Plan also allows you to see the projected profitability of your shops. Who knows, maybe some of them are bringing losses to the company?
The template contains assumptions and projections for the Profit and loss statement (P&L), Balance sheet (BS), and Cashflow statement (CF). It also provides detailed projections for different cost groups, e.g., payroll, rent, marketing expenses, and others. These projections influence the big picture and are logically subdivided into worksheets. Detailed instructions are given on each worksheet.
The functionality of the Retail Financial Plan:
– separate profit and loss budget and cash flow budget
– balance sheet by months
– monthly earnings by product groups and shops
– forecast your company’s expenses
– forecast payroll
– create a products purchase plan, taking into account the forecasting market situation and scheduled sales volumes
– calculate optimal inventory levels
– forecast possible payments to suppliers, as well as the possible payment schedules for certain suppliers
– forecast possible payments from debtors, and the possible payment schedules for certain debtors
– quickly change the most important assumptions. The changes will be automatically reflected in all positions of the budget. Thus, it will be possible to quickly analyze different scenarios and adjust your plans accordingly
