All I know is that I am to use an imaginary company that I make up other than that I don't know what to do. This is what I was given. This is all the information I was given. The company was not given nor were any numbers. I am trying to figure out what I need to do.

I have no other information. This is what I was given hince the reason for the assistance.

the financial numbers were not given. I just need a general idea of how to complete this with any numbers so I can understand what I'm supposed to do.

Projecting your balance sheet can be quite a complex accounting problem, but that does not mean you need to be a professional accountant to do it or to benefit from the exercise. The desired result is not a perfect forecast, but rather a thoughtful plan detailing what additional resources will be o needed by the company, where they will be needed, and how they will be financed. Using your last historical balance sheet as a starting point, 9 project what your balance sheet will look like at the end of the 12 month period covered in your Profit & Loss and Cash Flow forecasts. How will 10 the year's operations affect assets, debts and owners' equity? For example, if you are planning significant sales growth in the coming year, go 11 through the balance sheet item by item and think about the probably effects of assets. 12 Ex. ASSETS: Inventory and Accounts Receivable will have to grow. New equipment may be needed for increased production. 13 You may draw down on cash to finance some of this. 16 Now, since a balance must balance, you need to consider the effects on the other half of the statement, liabilities and equity. Ex. LIABILITIES & EQUITY: Some of the growth may be financed by profits retained in the business as Retained Earnings. Your Profit & Loss 19 Projection will tell you how much might be available from that source. Funds may be contributed by the owners through contributions of more Invested Capital or loans to the company (Notes Payable to Stockholders). Suppliers may provide some of the financing via increased Accounts 18 Payable. The rest will have to be financed by borrowing, which can be: Short term loans (due within 12 months) such as a line of credit or by Long 19 Term Debt (maturity greater than 12 months). 20 21 Technical Tips: 22 1. Your firm's balance sheet no doubt has more lines than this template. For clarity and ease of analysis, we recommend you combine categories 23 to fit into this compressed format 2. As always for projections, we recommend that you condense your numbers. Most people find it useful to express the values in thousands, rounding to the nearest hundred dollars, for example, $11,459 would be entered as 11.5. 3. In the Fixed Assets section, the "LESS accumulated depreciation" 26 figure is the total of all depreciation accrued over the years on all fixed assets still owned by the company. Be sure to enter it as a negative 21 number so the spreadsheet will subtract it from Total Fixed Assets. 28 4. In Owners' Equity, "Retained Earnings-Beginning" is retained earnings as of the last historical balance sheet or the end of the last fiscal year. 29 "Retained Earnings-Current" is net profit for the period of the projections, less any owner's draw (for partnerships and proprietorships) or dividends 30 paid (for corporations). 31 32 25 Sheet1 Sheet2 Sheet3 + READY @ U -- + 100% - 11:28 PM O a Type here to search E 4/5/2020 Balance sheet projected (1) - Excel (Product Activation Failed) ? - .
