Learning Objective

  • To use a disciplined approach using Excel to develop financial analysis.
  • To prepare financial projections of the income statement, balance sheet, and statement of cash flows.
  • To analyze the approach that keeps model integrity and credibility top of mind throughout development.

Course Overview

A financial model is simply a tool that has built-in spreadsheet software such as MS Excel to forecast a business’ financial performance into the future. The forecast is typically based on the company’s historical performance, and assumptions about the future, and requires preparing an income statement, balance sheet, cash flow statement, and supporting schedules (known as a 3-statement model).

In this Online Excel CPE webinar, we are going to learn how to financially model a business using Excel. Financial models underpin strategic and business planning, solicitations for financing, budgeting and forecasting, business valuations, cash budgeting, capital budgeting, and so many other corporate finance purposes.

The CPE/CPD Finance course is going to concentrate on the preparation of a financial projection of the income statement, balance sheet, and statement of cash flow. It will use an approach that keeps model integrity and credibility top of mind throughout development.

This course covers the following Major Topics: 

  • Planning Your Financial Mode
  • Building a Model Template
  • Projecting the Income Statement
  • Projecting the Balance Sheet
  • Projecting Cash Flows
