On the other side, if you know ahead of time that the large lump of cash will lay in your bank account within the next three months. In this case, you might need to explore options to reinvest it in your business to drive growth.

Run different scenarios
A Cashflow Forecast shows you what your cash balance will look like taking into account the numbers you put into the template. It means you can play with the various variables that impact your cash flow forecast, i.e., wages, sales inflow, supplier payments, taxes, and so on. By adjusting the input amounts, you will be able to see what impact they will have on your businesses’ cash flow and when this impact is likely to occur.

REPORTS and INPUTS

Financial KPIs
The Chinese Restaurant Three Way Financial Model has key financial indicators (KPIs) that show sales and profitability performance: revenue growth rate, gross margin, and EBITDA margin.
It also has KPIs related to cash flows and raising investment: the cash burn rate, runway and funding need. You can choose the KPIs relevant to your company and industry, and monitor your company’s performance. For example, SaaS companies typically monitor and manage customer lifetime value (LTV), customer acquisition costs (CAC), LTV/CAC ratio, and the churn rate. For SaaS businesses, these KPIs are crucial.

Performance KPIs
Sales growth year-to-date. Every entrepreneur wants to see the company grow month-over-month. In some industries, sales depend on the season or other external factors. The sales growth year-to-date metric shows the pace at which the company’s sales revenue increases or decreases.

Users can monitor sales volumes over various periods – daily, weekly, monthly, or yearly. Sales growth metric helps to manage sales growth goals in the form of a percentage of last month’s sales volume or others. If the company has several sales teams, the management can monitor this metric for each team separately. It will help to monitor better each team’s achievements.

Dashboard
The All-in-one dashboard in this Chinese Restaurant 3 Way Financial Model contains all core financial inputs and core start-up metrics critical for the companies’ financial analysis. It reflects the financial data from a Balance Sheet, an p&l proforma, and a cash flow projection. Moreover, users can obtain financial information in the form of graphs or charts.

Sources and Uses
The Sources and Uses statement in our Chinese Restaurant Finance Projection shows users that financial planning does not have to be complicated. This statement shows the company’s stakeholders, e.g., lenders, how much financing the company needs, and how it plans to get it. There may be cases when the company does not need more funding. It wants to show its current investors that it has additional or alternative funding sources it can attract in case of unexpected events. These additional sources of funding may be interesting for banks, for example.

While putting together the Sources and Uses statement, companies and especially start-ups can include alternative funding sources, such as crowdfunding campaigns.
Another part of the Sources and Uses statement is the ways the company plans to use obtained funds. The total figure in this section should balance with the figure if the ‘Sources’ section, i.e., both parts of the Sources and Uses section, should balance.

Cap Table
A capitalization table or the cap table is an essential financial tool for start-up companies. A cap table in our Chinese Restaurant Five Year Financial Projection Template has four rounds of raising funding. This approach will help users anticipate the company’s ownership stakes by its shareholders, which will lead to dilution of existing shares. A cap table considers equity shares, preferred shares, share options, employee stock options, convertible bonds, and others.

Benchmarks
Our Financial Projection Model Excel has the proforma for industry benchmark analysis. Industry benchmarks, including the financial benchmarks, show users the comparison of performance indicators, e.g., financial indicators, with similar performance indicators of the other companies in the same industry.

Valuation
Our Chinese Restaurant Excel Pro Forma has two integrated valuation methods. It has a discounted cash flow (DCF) and the weighted average cost of capital (WACC) calculations to show a company’s forecasted financial performance.
