Introduction
A good plan begins with a good forecast, which in turn, leads to a good budget. And since the budget is a road map of the journey a company is planning to take, it becomes a continuous cycle. It is a quantification of the activities the company must perform to arrive at its destination as specific in its Strategic Plan. Excel® is the toolbox of choice for model development. Put these two concepts together, and you have the leading-edge budgeting and forecasting course available. This program explains the budgeting process from beginning to end. It looks at budget development, how decisions affect the "bottom line," and what budget variances are saying. At the same time, you will learn how to use the leading-edge tools available on Excel®.
You will learn:
- How Excel© tools can be used to develop
* Strategic plans
* Forecasts
* Budgets
- The cyclical nature of the relationship between the plan, forecast, & budget
