Corporate Valuation and Financial Planning: Forecasted Financial Statements : The AFN equation provides useful insights into the forecasting process, but this equation assumes that all of the firm's key ratios remain constant, which is not likely to hold true. Consequently, it is useful to forecast the firm's financial statements. The firm begins with forecasting its income statement which then feeds into the firm's balance sheet. Management looks at operating ratios and their relationship with Industry and benchmark averages. The forecasted income statement begins with the prior year's Income statement and is adjusted for the sales growth forecast. Some inputs for the income statement are not under the firm's control - for example, tax and interest rates. The forecasted balance sheet is calculated from asset ratios that management has reviewed and changed based on industry and benchmark averages. An Excel spreadsheet is used for this analysis because changes in assumptions, financing, and retios can be made to the statemerits to review alternative scenarios. The impact of these changes on the firm's forecasted financial statements ultimately can be used to improve the firm's operations, Quantitative Problem: At the end of last year, Edwin Inc. reported the following Income statement (In millions of dollars): Sales $4,210.00 Operating costs (excluding depreciation) EBITDA $1,125.00 Depreciation 325.00 EBIT $800.00 Interest 170.00 3,085.00 EBT $630.00 Taxes (40%) 252.00 Net Income $378.00 Looking ahead to the following year, the company's CFO has assembled this information: Year-end sales are expected to be 59% higher than $4.21 billion in sales generated last year Year-end operating costs, excluding depreciation, are expected to increase at the same rates es sales. .
