The Importance of Business Models

Having a clearly articulated business model is important
because it does the following:

• Serves as an ongoing extension of feasibility analysis. A business

model continually asks the question, “Does this business make
sense?”
• Focuses attention on how all the elements of a business fit
together and constitute a working whole.
• Describes why the network of participants needed to make a
business idea viable are willing to work together.
• Articulates a company’s core logic to all stakeholders, including
all employees.

Financial Management
1 of 2

• Financial Management
• Financial management deals with two things: raising money
and managing a company’s finances in a way that achieves
the highest rate of return
• Chapter 10 focuses on raising money. This chapter focuses
primarily on:
• How a new venture tracks its financial progress through preparing,
analyzing, and maintaining past financial statements.
• How a new venture forecasts future income and expenses by preparing
pro forma (or projected) financial statements.
 8-85

Financial Management
2 of 2

The financial management of a firm deals with questions

such as the following on an ongoing basis:

• How are we doing? Are we making or losing money?

• How much cash do we have on hand?
• Do we have enough cash to meet our short-term obligations?
• How efficiently are we utilizing our assets?
• How does our growth and net profits compare to those of our industry peers?
• Where will the funds we need for capital improvements come from?
• Are
there ways we can partner with other firms to share risk and reduce the
amount of cash we need?
• Overall, are we in good shape financially?

Financial Objectives of a Firm

2 of 3

• Profitability
• Is the ability to earn a profit.
• Many start-ups are not profitable during their first one to three years
while they are training employees and building their brands.
• However, a firm must become profitable to remain viable and provide a
return to its owners.
• Liquidity
• Is a company’s ability to meet its short-term financial
obligations.
• Even if a firm is profitable, it is often a challenge to keep enough
money in the bank to meet its routine obligations in a timely manner.
 8-88

Financial Objectives of a Firm

3 of 3

• Efficiency
• Is how productively a firm utilizes its assets relative to its
revenue and its profits.
• Southwest Airlines, for example, uses its assets very productively. Its
turnaround time, or the time its airplanes sit on the ground while they
are being unloaded and reloaded, is the lowest in the airline industry.
• Stability
• Is the strength and vigor of the firm’s overall financial
posture.
• For a firm to be stable, it must not only earn a profit and remain liquid
but also keep its debt in check.
 8-89

The Process of Financial Management

1 of 4

• Importance of Financial Statements

• To assess whether its financial objectives are being met, firms
rely heavily on analysis of financial statements.
• A financial statement is a written report that quantitatively describes a
firm’s financial health.
• The income statement, the balance sheet, and the statement of cash
flows are the financial statements entrepreneurs use most commonly.
• Forecasts
• Are an estimate of a firm’s future income and expenses, based
on past performance, its current circumstances, and its future
plans.
 8-90

The Process of Financial Management

2 of 4

• Forecasts (continued)
• New ventures typically base their forecasts on an estimate of
sales and then on industry averages or the experiences of
similar start-ups regarding the cost of goods sold and other
expenses.
• Budgets
• Are itemized forecasts of a company’s income, expenses, and
capital needs and are also an important tool for financial
planning and control.
 8-91

The Process of Financial Management

3 of 4

• Financial Ratios
• Depict relationships between items on a firm’s financial
statements.
• An analysis of its financial ratios helps a firm determine
whether it is meeting its financial objectives and how it stakes
up against industry peers.
• Importance of Financial Management
• Many experienced entrepreneurs stress the importance of
keeping on top of the financial management of the firm.

Historical Financial Statements

Three types of historical financial statements

Financial Statement Purpose

Reflects the results of the operations of a firm over a

Income Statement specified period of time. It records all the revenues and
expenses for the given period and shows whether the
firm is making a profit or is experience a loss.

Balance Sheet Is a snapshot of a company’s assets, liabilities, and

owners’ equity at a specific point in time.

Summarizes the changes in a firm’s cash position for

Statement of cash flows a specified period of time and details why the changes
occurred.

Ratio Analysis

• Ratio Analysis
• The most practical way to interpret or make sense of a firm’s
historical financial statements is through ratio analysis, as
shown in the next slide.
• Comparing a Firm’s Financial Results to Industry
Norms
• Comparing a firm’s financial results to industry norms helps a
firm determine how it stakes up against its competitors and if
there are any financial “red flags” requiring attention.

PAYBACK PERIOD
ANALYSIS AND
BREAKEVEN POINT
Payback Period
This is one of the most common evaluation criteria used by engineering
and resource companies.
The Payback Period is simply the number of years required for the cash
income from a project to return the initial cash investment in the project.
The investment decision criteria for this technique suggests that if the
calculated payback is less than some maximum value acceptable to the
company, the proposal is accepted.
The following example illustrates five investment proposals having
identical capital investment requirements but differing expected annual
cash flows and lives.
 Example
Calculation of the payback period for a given investment proposal.

b)Find the First Non-Negative Year

Breakeven Point
The basics of break-even point
 Businesses must make a profit to survive
To make a profit, income must be higher than
expenditure (or costs)
The Break-even point occurs where total
revenue equals total costs – the firm, in this
example would have to sell Q1 to generate
sufficient revenue to cover its costs.
Breakeven point is identified as QBE. Determined
using linear or non-linear math relations for
revenue and cost

Cost-Revenue Model ― One Project
Quantity, Q — An amount of the variable in
question, e.g., units/year, hours/month
Breakeven value is QBE

Fixed cost, FC — Costs not directly dependent on the variable, e.g.,

buildings, fixed overhead, insurance, minimum workforce cost
Variable cost, VC — Costs that change with parameters such as
production level and workforce size. These are labor, material
and marketing costs. Variable cost per unit is v
Total cost, TC — Sum of fixed and variable costs, TC = FC + VC

Revenue, TR — Amount is Profit, P — Amount of

dependent on quantity sold revenue remaining after costs
Revenue per unit is r P = R – TC = R – (FC+VC)

Example: One Project Breakeven Point

A plant produces 15,000 units/month. Find breakeven level if

FC = $75,000 /month, revenue is $8/unit and variable cost is
$2.50/unit. Determine expected monthly profit or loss.

Solution: Find QBE and compare to 15,000; calculate

Profit
QBE = 75,000 / (8.00-2.50) = 13,636 units/month
Production level is above breakeven Profit
Profit = R – (FC + VC)
= rQ – (FC + vQ) = (r-v)Q – FC
= (8.00 – 2.50)(15,000) – 75,000
= $ 7500/month

The Importance of Getting Financing or
Funding

• Understanding the Alternatives for Financing or

Funding
• Few people deal with the process of raising investment capital
until they need to raise capital for their own firm.
• As a result, many entrepreneurs go about raising capital
haphazardly because they lack experience.
• To be successful in this area, it is important for entrepreneurs
to understand the role of investment capital in the success of a
new businesses, and the options available to entrepreneurial
firms for obtaining financing or funding.
Why Most New Ventures Need Funding

Figure 10.1
Three Reasons Start-Ups Need Funding
Sources of Personal Financing
(1 of 3)

• Sources of Personal Financing

• Typically, the seed (or initial) money that gets a company off
the ground comes from the founders themselves—from their
personal savings, mortgages, and credit cards.
• All founders contribute sweat equity to their ventures, which
represents the value of the time and effort that a founder puts
into a new firm.
• Love Money
• Friends and family are the second source of funds for many
new ventures. This form of contribution is often called “love
money.”
Sources of Personal Financing
(2 of 3)

• Love Money (continued)

• Love money can consist of outright gifts, loans, or
investments, but often comes in the form of forgone or
delayed compensation or reduced or free rent.
• Bootstrapping
• Another source of seed money for new ventures is
bootstrapping.
• Bootstrapping is the use of creativity, ingenuity, and any means
possible to obtain resources other than borrowing money or
raising capital from traditional sources.
Sources of Personal Financing
(3 of 3)

There are many ways entrepreneurs bootstrap to raise money or cut costs. Some of the
most common examples include the following:

• Minimizing personal expenses and putting all profits back into the

business
• Avoiding unnecessary expenses, such as lavish office space or furniture
• Establishing partnerships and sharing expenses with partners
• Leasing equipment rather than buying
• Sharing office space or employees with other businesses
• Utilizing the services or a university or community incubator
• Buying items cheaply but prudently through discount outlets or online
auctions, such as eBay, rather than at full-price stores
Preparing to Raise Debt or Equity Financing
(1 of 3)

Figure 10.2
Preparation for Debt or Equity Financing
Preparing to Raise Debt or Equity Financing
(2 of 3)

Two most common alternatives for raising money

Alternative Explanation
Equity funding means exchanging partial ownership in a firm,
usually in the form of stock, for funding. Angel investors, private
Equity funding placement, venture capital, and initial public offerings are the
most common sources of equity funding. Equity funding is not a
loan—the money that is received is not paid back. Instead,
equity investors become partial owners of a firm.

Debt financing is getting a loan. The most common sources of

Debt financing debt financing are commercial banks and the Small Business
Administration (through its guaranteed loan program).

Preparing An Elevator Speech
(1 of 2)

• Elevator Speech (pitch)

• An elevator speech is a brief, carefully constructed statement
that outlines the merits of a business opportunity.
• Why is it called an elevator speech?
• If an entrepreneur stepped into an elevator on the 25th floor of a building and found that
by a stroke of luck a potential investor was in the same elevator, the entrepreneur would
