This time P erin over the long-run is takes to be the coming two five Year Ui ine Period referred to as the planning horizon and this is the sion of the planning process that must be established. ‘The second dimension of the planning process that needs to be determined is the level of aggregation. Aggregation involves the determination of all of the individual projects together with the investment required that the firm will undertake and adding up these investment proposals to determine the total needed investment which is treated as one big project. ‘fier the planning horizon and level of aggregation are established, a financial plan requires inputs in the form of alternative sets of assumptions about important wea ables. This type of planning is particularly important for eyelical businesses & business firms whose sales are strongly affected by the overall state of the economy or business cycles. WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS THAT CAN BE DERIVED FROM FINANCIAL PLANNING? Due to the amount spent in examining the different scenarios, and variables that will eventually become the basis for a company’s financial plan, it seems reasonable to ask what the planning process will accomplish. {ved from financial planning are the Among the more significant benefits of deri following. 1. Provides a rational way of planning options or alternatives.

Interactions or Linkages between investment proposals are carefully examined. y the linkages The financial plan enables the proponents to show explicitly th i vities of the between investment proposals for the different operating acl! : firm and its available financing choices. For example, if the firm is planning on expanding or undertaking new investments and projects, all other relevant variables such as source, terms and timing of financing are thoroughly examined 3. Possible problems related to the proposal projects are identified actions to address them are studied. Financial planning should identify what may happen to the firm if different events take place. Specifically, it should address what actions the firm will take if expectations do not materialize and more generally, if assumptions made today about the future are seriously in error. Thus, one objective of financial planning is to avoid surprises and develop contingency plans. 4. Feasibility and internal consistency are ensured. Financial planning is a way of verifying that the goals and plans made for specific areas of a firm’s operations are feasible and internally consistent. The financial plan makes explicit the linkages between different aspects of a firm’s business such as the market share, return on equity, financial leverages, and so on. It also imposes a unified structure for reconciling goals and objectives. 5. Managers are forced to think about goals and establish priorities. Through financial planning, directions that the firm would take are established, risks are calculated and educated alternative courses of action are considered thoroughly. . .

Notice that tota| as: me thing as decreasing capital intensity. turnover is the The sustainable growth rate is a very useful planning number. What it illustrates is the explicit relationship between the firm’s four major areas of concern: (a) its operating efficiency as measured by profit margin, (b) its asset use efficiency as measured by total asset turnover, (c) its dividend policy as measured by the retention ratio, and (d) its financial policy as measured by the debt-equity ratio. Pro forma Statements. A financial plan will have a forecast statement of financial position, income statement, statement of cash flows and statement of stockholders’ equity. These are called pro forma or projected statements which will summarize the different events Projected for the future Asset Requirements. The financial plan will describe Projected capital Spending. Ata minimum, the projected statement of financial position will contain changes in total fixed assets and net working capital. These changes are effectively the firm’s total capital budget. Proposed capital spending in different areas must thus be reconciled with the overall increases contained in the long-range plan, Financial Requirements. The financial plan will include a section about the necessary financing arrangements. This part of the plan should discuss dividend policy and debt policy. Sometimes firms will expect to raise cash by selling new shares of stock or by borrowing. In this case, the plan will have to consider what kinds of securiti of issuance are most appropriate. itegic Growth 199 6. Additional Fi nal Funds No Needee oN] anvestimatelotiihe ceded (AEN).

For year 20X5 earnings before interest and taxes are projected at 625,000 and earnings after taxes of £269,000. Dividends to preference shares and ordinary shares are projected at £8,000 and P125,000, respectively. Figure 15-2 comains Tamarind’s 20X4 actual and its projected 20X5 statements of financial position. Total assets are projected at P4,400,000 while the forecasted liability and equity accounts total to only 4,176,000. Since the resources or assets required to support the higher sales level exceed the available sources, it means that additional funds will have to be obtained. The ‘AEN of P224,000 will be raised by borrowing from the bank as notes payable or by issuing long-term bonds or by selling new ordinary shares, or by some combination of these actions. 208 Chapter 9 actors, Tamarind decided on the U.Assume that after considering all the relevant fi following funds financing mix to raise the AFN of P2 4,000: Percent Amount Interest rate Notes payable 25% P 56,000 8% Long-term debt 25 56,000 10% Ordinary shares* 30 _112,000 ‘Total 100% 224,000 * 2,400 shares Construct the pro-forma income statement and statement of financial position to incorporate the financing feedback which results from adopting the financing mix given above.

Forecasting is an iterative process, both in the way the fi statements are generated and in the way the financial plan i planning purposes, the consultant or financial staff develops a preliminary forecast based on a combination of past policies and trends. This will serve as a starting, point or "baseline" forecast. The model is then modified to what effects: alternative operating plans would have on the firm’s earnings and finance’ condition. Likewise, alternative operating plans are examined under different sales growth rate scenarios and linked to the firm’s dividend policy and capital structure decisions. The revised forecast or model can also be used to analyze alternative working capital policies.
