Startup financial scenario planning

Compare baseline, lower-revenue and reduced-spending scenarios using your startup numbers. Inspect the effect on monthly cash usage.

Start with the right context.

Scenarios answer a defined question, such as how a delayed payment affects cash. They are not predictions. Specify the size and start date of a change, and keep the baseline visible so the comparison is understandable.

Prepare a result you can use.

Ask for a table with the same fields across scenarios: revenue, spending, net burn and cash remaining. Change one input at a time before combining changes. A chief with computer access can calculate a month-by-month table and save it for review.

Review before the next step.

Check that each scenario uses the assumptions you actually supplied. Savings may take time to begin, and revenue changes may affect costs. Avoid making a business commitment from an unexplained aggregate figure.

What to bring to your chief

  • Current cash, receipts and spending
  • The specific changes to model
  • Timing and constraints for each change
