Dance Studio Financial Model – 5 Year Financial Forecast

Description
Dance instructors have the experience and knowledge required to offer dance lessons, but they need a venue to teach their craft. A dance studio provides instructors with space to offer dance lessons, including both group classes and private sessions.
This Financial Model provides an advanced 5-year financial plan for a startup or operating Dance Studio and is a flexible tool for owners to forecast the company’s financial and operational activities.
The model includes assumptions and calculations of Active Students, Revenue from Monthly Classes and Private Lessons for five different dance styles, Direct & Indirect Payroll, Operating Expenses, Fixed Assets and Depreciation, Financing through Debt & Equity and Exit Valuation in case of a potential sale of the business.
