Case Study : Short-term Financial Planning
Introduction: Heavenly Reception
Heavenly Reception Limited is a local dealer for a national satellite television distributor. Recent growth has been very strong, but the company has to increase its financial leverage to deal with expansion. The high degree of financial risk is a concern to the company's controller as she prepares the budget for the coming fiscal year.
Assume the role of Abby Jeffers and prepare pro forma income statements, cash budgets, and balance sheets for Quarters 1, 2, 3, and 4 of 2004. Accompanying the budget should be a one-page memorandum which describes the changes in sales and cash flows each quarter, the financial decisions made, and if the company is in compliance with its ratio requirements.
The memo should be single-spaced and use the 11-point Arial font with .7 inch margins. All headings should be in12-point font and be bolded. Submit one Word file containing the memorandum and an Excel workbook file containing five worksheets: Input Data, Income Statement, Cash Budget, Balance Sheet, and Key Financial Ratios. The following templates for the pro forma financial statements should be used:
