The idea of any model is that if say the key assumptions are altered all relevant figures will automatically change for all future years; similarly if the percentage of sales is changed then again any linked data also needs to reflect this. As far as possible ALL figures should be driven initially from last years results or the previous years forecast. It is important to work out which are fixed and which are the variable costs in putting together your forecasts and consider the cost driver.
