This document discusses key financial documents and concepts for businesses: the balance sheet, income statement, statement of cash flows, financial projections, budgets, forecasts, and break-even analysis. It explains how to calculate and use ratios from the balance sheet to analyze a company's financial health. Preparing budgets, forecasts, and break-even analysis can help entrepreneurs understand their business's financial requirements and determine if a certain output level will be profitable.

• 1. The balance sheet (also called the statement of
financial position)
• .
• 2. An income statement or profit-and-loss (P&L)
statement.

•
4. Balance sheet equals= Liabilities + Shareholders
equity
Book Value= total of the tangible assets less
subtracting all the liabilities
Book value doe not include intangible assets –
like patents and Intellectual Property
Goodwill- includes factors like brand, market
share, and human capital
Value of the Balance Sheet
5. How to use Ratios for Financial
Analysis

10. The break-even technique is a decision-
making model that helps the entrepreneur to
determine whether a certain volume of
output will result in a profit or loss.
Preparing a Break-Even
Analysis
11. this formula, the price per unit (P)
multiplied by the number of units sold
(X) is equal to the fixed costs (F) plus the
variable costs (V) multiplied by the
number of units produced expressed as
the following formula:
P(X) = F + V(X)
Use the Break-even Formula
12. As an example, if fixed costs (F) are $40,000, the
variable costs per unit (V) are $15 and the price
per unit (P) is $20, the break-even point (X) can
be calculated by plugging these values into the
equation:
20(X) = 40,000 + 15(X)
20X – 15X = 40,000
5X = 40,000
X = 8,000 units
Example of Break Even
13. The annual budget presents a month-
by-month projection of revenues and
expenses over a one-year period. The
budget is the foundation for projecting
the other financial statements
