Financial reports. Cash flow statement
The investment analysis is based on the discounted cash flow valuation technique (DCF) used to analyze the attractiveness of a certain investment opportunity. Unlike static plans, the program for developing business plans should be able to plan for relatively "real" money, which should be reflected in the financial report ("Cash flow statement").
To calculate the discounted cash flow in the "Budget-Plan Express" uses a "direct" method of forecasting cash flows. In IAS 7, it is also recommended that a direct method for calculating operating cash flow (Net Operating CF, NOCF) be used in financial planning. Indirect method is used when there are no forecasted values of revenue and cash flows, that is, a fairly accurate forecast of the financial result.
Budget-Plan Express is a software product for preparing business plans and presentations in Word and Excel format, optimal for small businesses and studies (for students, graduate students, MBI students, etc.)
