refraining from reproducing or posting the assignment or their completed work where it can be
viewed by current or future students.
COURSE OBJECTIVES
Upon successful completion of this course, the student will be able to:
1. Evaluate how managerial accounting relates to business
decision-making
2. Apply cost estimation, analysis, and planning techniques for an organization
3. Assess budgets and financial documents in organizational planning, controlling, and
decision-making
BACKGROUND INFORM ATI ON
In today’s economy, businesses are forced to make financial decisions that can have a direct
impact on operations and the ability to successfully compete in the marketplace. This is why it is
imperative for a business to prepare certain forms for analysis, especially in managerial
accounting.
PROJECT INSTRUCTIONS
For this project, you will create the accounting portions of a business plan using an assortment
of tools presented in the course. You will select a business that is of interest to you or that you
would like to start. You may use an existing business as long as you concisely discuss its
founding process. Your paper should be in APA format and include at least one quality
reference (suggested length: 10-15 pages).
Note: Wikipedia, blogs, and social media do not qualify as academic resources.
To start, write 1-2 pages that describe:
Why you selected this business
Some basic information about the business’s market, location, and competition
Why you think this business would be profitable
How your financial decisions will affect the business
After this introductory portion, you will create the financial plan. Requirements for your final
project are as follows:
1. Startup Cost Analysis
In this section, you will include a detailed list of how much it will cost to start the
business. This should include most, if not all, of the following: cost of property, buildings,

machinery, equipment, planning, legal fees, consulting fees, and one year of operational
costs.
2. Cost/Benefit Analysis
In this section, you will perform an analysis of the advantages and disadvantages of the
business. Determine if your business is a sound investment decision
(justification/feasibility) by conducting a SWOT analysis, and compare the total expected
cost (disadvantages) of each against the total expected benefits (advantages) to see
whether the benefits outweigh the costs and by how much.
3. Breakeven Analysis
In this section, you will perform a basic breakeven analysis. Estimate basic variable and
fixed costs that will accrue in operations, and then compare this to how much revenue
(units that need to be sold) is needed to cover these costs. This should include your
basic operational costs (e.g. salaries, rent, utilities, product costs, etc.). Be sure to
include calculations and a graph showing your breakeven analysis.
4. Cost-Volume-Profit (CVP) Analysis
In this section, you will perform a CVP analysis and investigate the outside factors that
may influence your breakeven point. Identify 2-4 qualitative factors that can vary
between your base case (the breakeven analysis) and changes to this base case. You
also need to weigh the pros/cons of each of the outside factors. These outside factors
can include changes of location, changes in competition, or changes in outside market
factors (e.g. stock market, oil prices, commodities, or anything that can affect revenue
for your business). Be sure to include calculations and graphs for CVP analysis.
5. Pro-Forma Financial Statements
In this section, you will create pro-forma financial statements in which you will estimate
the financial operations of your business. This will include a pro-forma income
statement, pro-forma statement of cash flows, and a pro-forma balance sheet. For each
of these, project out for three years (all three years can be listed on one statement).
Although these values are estimations, they can help predict how successful the
business will be.
6. Discussion
Based on the results of your analyses, discuss whether the business will be as profitable
as you first expected. Briefly explain why (or why not) and what can be done to improve
the possible outcome.
