Financial ForecastingFinancial Forecasting
Process of attempting to estimate a firm’s future financing requirements
Steps:1. Project the firm’s sales revenues and expenses
over the planning period2. Estimate the levels of investment in current and
fixed assets that are necessary to support the projected sales
3. Determine the firm’s financing needs throughout the planning period

Sales ForecastSales Forecast
The key ingredient in a firm’s planning process is the sales forecast
Reflects:
1. Past trend in sales
2. Anticipated events

Percent of Sales MethodPercent of Sales Method
Estimating the level of an expense, asset, or liability for a future period as a percentage of the sales forecast.
The percentages used can come from recent financial statements or from averages over past years

Spontaneous FinancingSpontaneous Financing
The trade credit and other accounts payable that arise spontaneously in the firm’s day-to-day operations.
Normally vary directly with the level of sales
Accounts Payable and Accrued Expenses

Discretionary Financing (DFN)Discretionary Financing (DFN)
Require explicit decisions on the part of the firm’s management every time funds are raised.
Do not normally vary directly with the level of sales
Notes Payable, long-term debt, common stock, paid in capital
![Page 9: Chapter 14. Short-term Financial Planning Chapter Objectives Percent of sales method to forecast financing requirements Sustainable rate of growth Limitations](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022072006/56649d175503460f949ed048/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Calculation of DFNCalculation of DFN Four step process (Using percentage of sales method)
1. Covert each asset and liability account that varies directly with firm sales to a percentage of the current year’s sales
– Current Assets/Sales2. Project the level of each asset and liability account in the
balance sheet using its percentage of sale multiplied by projected sales or by leaving the account balance unchanged when the account does not vary with the level of sales
– Projected current assets = projected sales X (current assets/sales)
![Page 10: Chapter 14. Short-term Financial Planning Chapter Objectives Percent of sales method to forecast financing requirements Sustainable rate of growth Limitations](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022072006/56649d175503460f949ed048/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
3. Project the addition to retained earnings available to help finance the firm’s operations. This equals projected net income for the period less planned common stock dividends.
Projected addition to retained earnings =
projected sales X Net income X {1-(cash dividends
Sales Net Income)}
4. Project the firm’s DFN as the projected level of total assets less projected liabilities and owners’ equity
DFN = Projected total assets – projected total liabilities – projected owners’ equity
![Page 11: Chapter 14. Short-term Financial Planning Chapter Objectives Percent of sales method to forecast financing requirements Sustainable rate of growth Limitations](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022072006/56649d175503460f949ed048/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
DFN RelationshipsDFN Relationships
DFN = Predicted change in total assets – Predicted change in spontaneous liabilities – Predicted change in retained earnings

External Financing Needs External Financing Needs (EFN)(EFN)
All the firm’s needs for financing beyond the funds provided internally through the retention of earnings
EFN = Predicted change in total assets – Predicted change in retained earnings
![Page 13: Chapter 14. Short-term Financial Planning Chapter Objectives Percent of sales method to forecast financing requirements Sustainable rate of growth Limitations](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022072006/56649d175503460f949ed048/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
DFN and EFNDFN and EFN
DFN = Predicted change in total assets – Predicted change in spontaneous liabilities – Predicted change in retained earnings
EFN = Predicted change in total assets – Predicted change in retained earnings
Difference between DFN and EFN is the inclusion/exclusion of spontaneous liabilities

Sustainable Rate of GrowthSustainable Rate of GrowthThe rate at which a firm’s sales can grow if
it wants to maintain its present financial ratios and does not want to resort to the sale of new equity shares.
Sustainable rate of Growth (g) = ROE (1-b)ROE is return on equity
or net income / common equityb is dividend payout ratio or dividends/net
income(1-b) = plowback ratio or the fraction of earnings
that are reinvested or plowed back into the firm
![Page 15: Chapter 14. Short-term Financial Planning Chapter Objectives Percent of sales method to forecast financing requirements Sustainable rate of growth Limitations](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022072006/56649d175503460f949ed048/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
ROEROE
Return on equityNet income / common equityROE = (net income / sales) X (sales/assets)
X (total assets/common equity)
or NPM X Asset turnover X capital structure

Limitations of the Percent of Limitations of the Percent of Sales Forecast MethodSales Forecast Method
Method provides reasonable estimates of financing requirements only when asset requirements and financing sources can be accurately forecast as a constant percent of sales
Economies of scale are sometimes realized from investing in certain types of assets
Some assets are lumpy assets or assets that must be purchased in large, nondivisible components

Budget FunctionsBudget Functions
A budget is a forecast of future eventsPerform three functions:
– Indicate the amount and timing of a firm’s needs for future financing
– Provide the basis for taking corrective action in the event of variances
– Provide the basis for performance evaluation and control
