Hard Times Ahead - Cost Control Model

With hard times ahead this model helps keep on top of a business's finances - planning the year ahead, measuring results and allowing corrective action.

Description
It is more important than ever to keep strict control and clarity on your business’s or your private Income & Spending.
This model for use with MS Excel will helpfully do this for you by:
1. It allows you to plan your Income & Spend will be over the next 12 months.
2. Then on a daily basis, or less frequently if wanted, enter actuals into the model to achieve real-time comparisons as you progress through the year. This puts in place the most important aspect of any control system – the ability to take immediate correcting action.
3. And the model does this by producing a series of five Dashboards & Reports – that start at a high level and drill down to individual Spend or Income results.
The model allows you to use:
1. Up to fifty Income & fifty Spend types - these are just major income and spend types. When you come to inputting plans or actual results under them - in the description column you can add subsidiary information - eg for a department's Staff type - individual employee names.
2. Then Up to one hundred thousand planned or actual transactions during the year.

All the inputs and reports are designed for maximum ease of use and clarity.

Please note there is also a free trial version with 100 transactions available for your evaluation.
