This article explores the crucial relationship between sales and financial planning, illustrating how changes in sales impact assets, liabilities, and owners' equity. We delve into pro forma income statements and balance sheets, showcasing simplified calculations for external funds needed (EFN) based on projected sales growth. Real-world scenarios are examined to determine the sustainable growth rate when external funding is absent. Gain insights into financial strategies that align with sales performance and understand the implications for overall business growth.

Changes in Sales Necessitate Changes in Assets and in Liabilities and Owners’ Equity Sales Assets Liabilities Owners’ Equity
External Funds Needed (Simplified) Where, CA = Current Assets FA = Fixed Assets SL = Spontaneous Liabilities S = Original Sales g = growth rate in sales = net profit margin d = dividend payout ratio
External Funds Needed (Simplified)With Numbers • CA*g = $11,350*.15 = $1,702.50 • FA*g = $20,000*.15 = $3,000.00 • SL*g = $ 5,000*.15 = $ 750.00 • S*(1+g)**(1-d) = $16,000*(1.15)*.289*.675 = $3,589.38 • EFN = 1,702 + 3,000 - 750 - 3589 = 363 365
External Funds and Growth Suppose EFN = 0, what is the growth rate? Implies that = .0995/[1-.1595-.0995] = .1343 = 13.43% Suppose no external funding of any kind is used. What is the growth rate? Suppose no external equity is used, but enough debt is used to maintain the same total debt-to-total asset ratio. What growth can be sustained?
