FINANCIAL PLANNING MODEL

This program produces an Income Statement, Balance Sheet, Cash Flow Statement, and various financial and operating ratios for five one-year periods with the first year shown by quarters. It is operable in a time-sharing environment only. Deterministic in nature, the program requires substantial initial data from the user, after which be may make data changes by means of a simple conversation mode. Technical highlights are the internal handling of long-term and short-term debt, financial charges, capital investments, depreciation (ICC and IRS) and state and federal taxes.
