Quick method: the goal is to get in a quick way, the
estimate for the financing needs (main assumption is the
evolution of sales)
FN=(A/S*∆S)-(L/S*∆S)-(ROS*S1*(1-d))
Direct method: the starting point is the turnover (sales)
forecasts. Then estimates of the accounts that change with
turnover are obtained. The accounts that are independent
of sales should be estimated autonomously. Based on
these estimates we will be able to prepare pro forma
financial statements.
