Financial Plan

The following topics present the financial plan for CorbelArch Real Estate Inspectors. Topics covered include a Break-even Analysis, Cash Flow, P & L, and a Balance Sheet.

7.1 Important Assumptions

We are assuming steady growth from good management, barring any unforseen local, or national disasters such as the economic slowdown seen by most of the country following the September 11th, 2001 tragedies.

7.2 Break-even Analysis

The break-even analysis is based on our average monthly expenses. The total expenses anticipated for the 12-month plan period was divided by twelve to establish the monthly average. The table below shows what we must average in revenue each month. We recognize that our actual revenue and expanses will vary each month.
