Formulas Required
- **Sales Forecasting**:
`=Base Sales * (1 + Growth Rate) * Seasonality Factor`
Example: `=E3*(1+G3)*H3` applied in the "Forecasted Sales" column.
- **Loan EMI Calculation**:
`=PMT(Interest_Rate/12, Loan_Term, -Loan_Amount)`
Example: `=PMT(B2/12, B3, -B1)`
- **Interest & Principal Components**:
Interest = Previous Balance * (Rate / 12)
Principal = EMI – Interest
- **Variance Analysis (Forecast vs Actual)**:
`=(Actual – Forecast)/Forecast` → displays percentage variance.
Conditional Formatting
- Sales Forecast Accuracy: Red if variance exceeds ±10%, Yellow for ±5% to 10%, Green for within ±5%.
- Loan EMI vs. Monthly Sales: Highlights cells where EMI exceeds 30% of forecasted sales (potential liquidity risk).
- Declining Growth Rate: Applies color scale to "Growth Rate" column to identify negative or dropping trends.
- Overdue Balance: Alerts if remaining balance is increasing due to payment delays.
User Instructions
- Open the template and navigate to the "Executive Summary" sheet for an overview of key metrics.
- In "Sales Forecast (12-Month)", enter historical sales data in the first row (if available), then adjust growth rate and seasonality factors based on market research or business strategy.
- Go to "Loan Calculator & Amortization" sheet. Input loan amount, interest rate, and term duration. EMI will auto-calculate.
- Compare monthly EMI with forecasted sales to assess repayment capacity—ensure that no month's EMI exceeds 25–30% of projected revenue.
- Use the "Forecast vs Actual" sheet to update real-time performance data and track accuracy over time.
- Update assumptions regularly (e.g., quarterly) to maintain forecast relevance.
