1.0 Executive Summary
This sample plan was created for a hypothetical investment company that buys other companies
as investments. In this sample, the hypothetical Venture Capital firm starts with $20 million as
an initial investment fund. In its early months of existence, it invests $5 million eac h in four
companies. It receives a management fee of two percent (2%) of the fund value, paid
quarterly. It pays salaries to its partners and other employees, and office expenses, from the
management fee.
The investments show up in the Cash Flow table as the purchase of long-term assets, which
also puts them into the balance sheet as long-term assets. You can see them in this sample
plan, in the first few months.
In the third year, one of the target companies fails, so $5 million is written off as failure. You'll
see how that looks as a $5 million sale of long-term assets in the cash flow, and a balancing
entry of $5 million in c osts of sales in the profit and loss, making for a loss and write-off that
year. The result is a tax loss, and the balance of investments goes to $15 million.
In the fifth year, one of the target companies is transac ted at $50 million. You'll see in the
sample how that shows up as a $45 million equity appreciation in the sales forecast, plus a $5
million sale of long-term assets in the cash flow. At that point there's been a $45 million
profit, and the balance of long-term assets goes down to $10 million.
This is a simplified example. The business model holds long-term assets and waits for them to
appreciate. It doesn't show appreciation of assets until they are finally sold, and it doesn't show
write-down of assets until they fail. Sales and cost of sales are the appreciation and writedown of assets, plus the management fees.

8.1 Projected Profit and Loss

Please note that in the third year one investment is written off as a failure, producing a $5
million cost which ends up showing a loss for the year of nearly $5 million. The sale of equity at
the end of the period enters the sales forecast and the profit and loss statement as a $45 million
gain.
You will also note that there may be gains or losses in the value of the assets held as equity
investments, but these gains or losses don't enter the ac counting until there is a
transaction. The ac counting treatment is identical to what an individual investor does with
stoc ks: changes in the market price of a share of stoc k are irrelevant until that share is
ac tually sold to somebody else, or, if the company ceases to exist, that stoc k is written off as
having no value.

8.2 Projected Cash Flow
The Cash Flow shows four $5 million investments made in the first few months of the plan.
In the third year, one of the target companies fails, so $5 million is written off as failure. You'll
see that shows as a $5 million sale of long-term assets in the cash flow, and a balancing entry
of $5 million in c osts of sales in the profit and loss, making for a loss and write-off that year.
The result is a tax loss, and the balance of investments goes to $15 Million.
In the fifth year, another investment is transacted at $50 million. This shows up as a $5
million equity appreciation in the Sales Forecast, plus a $5 million sale of long-term assets in
the Cash Flow. At that point there's been a $45 million profit and the balance of long-term
assets goes down to $10 million.
The partners invest an additional $100,000 in the fourth year as additional working capital to
balance the cash flow of the company.

8.3 Projected Balance Sheet

You can see in the balance sheet how the ending balances for long-term assets were not revalued. They remain at the original purchase price until they are sold, or written off as a
complete loss. There is a $5 million write-off in the third year, and a sale of $5 million worth
of assets in the last year. That sale of $5 million in assets produces the $5 million sale at
book value plus the $45 million gain in the sales forecast and profit and loss table.
