We are excited to be launching a new business, With any launch, having a financial plan is one of the keys to success, and we would like to involve students in creating one for our new venture.

This will involve several different steps for the students, including:

• Learning about our business strategy from various employees to become familiar with our goals, mission, and products.
• Creating forecasts using Excel (or another financial software) for sales in the first year of operation as well as an income projection (conservative and aggressive).
• Conducting a break-even analysis timeline using financial projections.
• Reporting on projected assets and liabilities.
• Including visual comparisons such as graphs and charts to show the differences between the conservative and aggressive income projection.

If you are a self-motivated individual with excellent analytical skills and a passion for finance, we encourage you to apply for this exciting opportunity.

By the end of the project, students should complete the following list of activities (this is basically a retelling of the steps above):

• Creating forecasting Excel including assumptions, revenue and costs of revenue, income statement section, balance sheet section, and cash flow section.
• Conducting a break-even analysis timeline using financial projections.
• Including visual comparisons such as graphs and charts to show the differences between the conservative and aggressive income projection.
• Working directly with the CEO.

Final deliverables:

• A final report including all research, analysis, models, and recommendations.
• A 30-minute presentation to be presented to the project manager.
