Example - Dynamic Mattress Company

Event Source or Use ?


1. It earned $60 million of net income (operating activity)

that depreciation is not a cash outlay. Thus, it must be
added back in order to obtain Dynamic’s cash flow
(operating activity).
3. It reduced inventory, releasing $5 million (operating
activity).
4. It increased its accounts payable, in effect borrowing
an additional $25 million from its suppliers (operating
activity).
5. It issued $30 million of long-term debt (financing
activity).

The Cash Cycle


Cash = Average + Average - Average
cycle days in collection payment
Inventory period period

inventory at start of year


Avg Days in Inventory =
annual COGS/365

receivable s at start of year


Avg collection period =
annual sales/365

payables at start of year


Avg payment period =
annual COGS/365
13-29

Example: The Cash Cycle


FPT's has:
- Accounts receivable of $83,700
- Inventory of $154,200
- Sales of $414,200
- Cost of goods sold of $243,400.
How long does it take the firm to sell its inventory and collect
payment on the sale?

Average days in Inventory = 154,200 / 243,400 x 365 = 231 days

Average collection period = 83,700 / 414,200 x 365 = 74 days


13-30

Example: The Cash Cycle


Bulldog has following information at Beginning & Ending:

Calculate operating cycle and cash cycle?

Average days in Inventory = 53.06 days


Average collection period = 30.93 days
Average payment period = 46.25 days
=> Operating cycle = 84 days , Cash cycle = 37.74 days
13-31

Cash Budgeting
Steps to preparing a cash budget
• Step 1 - Forecast the sources of cash.
• Step 2 - Forecast uses of cash.
• Step 3 - Calculate whether the firm is facing a
cash shortage or surplus.

The following is the sales budget for Shleifer, Inc., for the quarter of
2010:
Jan Feb Mar
Sales budget $173,000 $184,000 $205,000
Credit sales are collected as follows:
▪ 65% in the month of the sale;
▪ 20% in the month after the sale;
▪ 15% in the second month after the sale.
The account receivable balance at the end of the previous quarter
was $79,800 ($57,200 of which were uncollected December sales).
1. Compute the sales for November.
2. Compute the sales for December.
3. Compute the cash collections from sales for each month from
Jan – March.

Dynamic Futon forecasts the following purchases from suppliers:
Jan Feb Mar Apr May June

Value of 32 28 25 22 20 20
goods
($ mil)
a. 40% of goods are supplied cash-on-delivery. The remainder are
paid with an average delay of one month. If the company starts
the year with payables of $22 mil, what is the forecasted level
of payables for each month?
b. Suppose that from the start of the year, the company streches
payables by paying 40% after one month and 20% after 2
months. The remainder continue to be paid cash-on-delivery.
Recalculate payables for each month assuming that there are
no cash penalties for late payment.

Financial Planning
Why Build Financial Plans?
➢ Contingency planning
➢ Considering options
➢ Forcing consistency
13-55

Long-term Financial Planning


Planning Horizon - Time horizon for a financial
plan.
Departments are often asked to submit 3
alternatives
– Optimistic case = best case
– Expected case = normal growth
– Pessimistic case = retrenchment
➢ Financial plans help managers ensure that their
financial strategies are consistent with their
capital budgets. They highlight the financial
decisions necessary to support the firm’s
production and investment goals.
13-56

Financial Planning Steps

Inputs Planning Outputs


Model

Inputs - Current financial statements. Forecasts of


key variables (such as sales or interest rates).

Planning Model - Equations specifying key


relationships.

Outputs - Projected financial statements (pro


forma). Financial ratios. Sources and uses of funds.
