Strategic plan• Multiyear action plan for major
investment and competitive initiatives
Senior management develops strategic plan by answering questions like:
• In what emerging markets might we have a sustainable competitive advantage?
• How can we leverage our competitive strengths across existing markets in which we currently do not compete?
• What threats to our current businesses exist, and how can we best meet those threats?
• Where in the world should we produce? Where should we sell?
• Can we deploy resources more efficiently by exiting certain markets and using those resources elsewhere?
Successful Long-Term Planning

Financial managers draw on a broad set of skills to asses the likelihood that the firm can achieve a
given strategic objective.
They determine the feasibility of a strategic plan, given firm’s existing and prospective sources of
funding.
Finance also contributes to strategic planning through risk management.
Financial managers exercise control function in implementing strategic plans.
Financial analysts prepare cash budgets to avoid or limit liquidity problems.
The Role of Finance in Long-Term Planning

Return on Investment Firms that use this metric as a growth target
attempt to maintain ROI above some minimum hurdle rate and to grow it over time.
These firms often set hurdle rates for minimum ROI at a level equal to the firm’s
cost of capital.
Economic Value Added (EVA®)EVA® is the difference between net operating
profits after taxes (NOPAT) and the cost of funds. The cost of funds is found by
multiplying the firm’s cost of capital by its investment.

Sustainable Growth Equality

Sustainable Growth Model
1. The firm has only common stock equity (E ) and will issue no new shares of common stock next year.
2. The firm’s total asset turnover ratio, S/A, remains constant.3. The firm pays out a constant fraction, d, of its earnings as
dividends.4. The firm maintains a constant assets-to-equity ratio, A/E.5. The firm’s net profit margin, m, is constant.
The sustainable growth model derives an expression that determines how rapidly a firm can grow while maintaining a balance between its outflows (increases in assets) and inflows (increases in liabilities & equity) of cash.

Sustainable Growth Model
• The insight of the sustainable growth model is that there will be some rate of growth, g*, that keeps the outflows and inflows of funds in balance:

• The model gives managers a kind of shorthand projection that ties together growth objectives and financing needs.

In 2005, Yahoo! Inc. reported the following financial data:
Sales (S) $ 5,257.7 millionNet income $ 1,896.2 millionTotal assets (A) $10,831.8millionTotal equity (E) $ 8,566.4 millionDividends $ 0
Sustainable Growth Model: An Application
sustainable growth rate g* = 28.3%.
For Yahoo! this meant that the company could increase sales by 28.3% without issuing new shares of common stock and without changing asset turnover, dividend policy, profit margins, or leverage.
From these figures, net profit margin (m) = 36.07%, A/E = 1.26, S/A = 0.485, A/S = 2.06, dividend payout ratio (d) = 0.0.

Pro Forma Financial Statements
pro forma financial
statements
• A forecast of what a firm expects its income statement and balance sheet to look like a year or two ahead.
top-down sales forecast
• A sales forecast that relies heavily on macroeconomic and industry forecasts.
bottom-up sales forecast
• A sales forecast that relies on the assessment by sales personnel of demand in the coming year on a customer-by-customer basis.
percentage-of-sales method
• Constructing pro forma statements by assuming that all items grow in proportion to sales.
Plug figure
• A line item on the pro forma balance sheet that represents an account that can be adjusted after all other projections are made, so that the balance sheet will balance.

Constructing Pro Forma Statements: Zinsmeister Shoe Corporation
1. Zinsmeister plans to increase sales by 30% in 2010.
2. The company’s gross profit margin will remain at 35%.
3. Operating expenses will equal 10% of sales as they did in 2009.
4. Zinsmeister pays 10% interest on both its long-term debt and its credit line.
5. Zinsmeister will invest an additional $20 million in fixed assets in 2010, which will increase depreciation expense from $10 million to $15 million in 2010.
6. The company faces a 35% tax rate.
We will use the 2009 historical information (income statement and balance sheet) plus the following assumptions to generate pro forma financial statements for 2010.

AEFR
The estimated amount of external financing that a firm will require in the future:
EFR for Zinsmeister is $8,111,000. In pro forma balance sheet, external financing
declined by $6.7 million. Why the discrepancy?
The discrepancy arises because the assets to sales ratio is actually not constant, as the
equation assumes.

Short-Term Financing Strategies

Short-Term Financing Strategies
17
Short-Term Financing Strategies
Conservative strategy
• When a company makes sure that it has enough long-term financing to cover its permanent investments in fixed and current assets as well as the additional seasonal investments in current assets that it makes during the various quarters each year.
Aggressive strategy
• When a company relies heavily on short-term borrowing, not only to meet the seasonal peaks each year but also to finance a portion of the long-term growth in sales and assets.
Matching strategy
• When a company finances permanent assets (fixed assets plus the permanent component of current assets) with long-term funding sources and finances its temporary or seasonal asset requirements with short-term debt.

The Cash Budget
• Develop a cash budget for Farrell Industries, a candy manufacturer, for Oct, Nov, and Dec.
• First consider the cash receipts projections:
– Sales of $1,200,000, $900,000, and $600,000 have been forecast for Oct, Nov, and Dec, respectively.
– 90% of Farrell’s sales are on credit, and 10% are cash sales.
– Farrell collects about 60% of each month’s sales in the next month, and it has to wait two months to collect the remaining 30% of sales.
– Bad debts for Farrell have been negligible.
– In December, the firm expects to receive a $90,000 dividend from stock it holds in a subsidiary.
