LESSON 1: 4 M’s of Operations in Relation to the Business Opportunity and Developing Business Model

In your previous lesson, you learned about the 7P’s of Marketing Mix; Product, Place, Price,
Promotion, People, Packaging and Positioning in relation to business opportunity, wherein
marketing is about creating and accumulating customers. Marketing plans are intended to capture
a market portion and to setback competitors.
Brand name was also introduced, where it is a name, symbol, or other feature that
distinguishes a seller’s goods or services in the marketplace. Your brand is one of the greatest
assets because your brand is your customers’ over-all experience of your business.
Experts believed that a good brand can result in better loyalty for its customers, a better
corporate image and a more relevant identity.

ACTIVITY 1. GUESS THE PICTURE

The most serious issues in the whole production system are the inputs and the transformation process. Their
quality determines the quality of the output.
The factors involved in the input and the production process are usually referred to as the
Four M’s of production, namely Manpower, Method, Machine, and Materials.
Four M’s

• Manpower
• Method OUTPUT
• Machine
• Materials

Manpower

- Talks about human labor force involved in the manufacture of products.


- It is measured as the most serious and main factor of production. The entrepreneur must
determine, attain and match the most competent and skilled employees with the jobs at
the most appropriate time period.
- Educational qualifications and experience, status of employment, numbers of workers
required, skills and expertise required for the job are some of the manpower criteria that
must be highly considered by the entrepreneur. Material
- Talks about raw materials necessary in the production of a product. Materials mainly form
part of the finished product. Just in case the resources are below standard, the finished
product will be of unsatisfactory as well.
- The entrepreneur may consider cost, quality, availability, credibility of suppliers and waste
that the raw material may produce. Machine
- Discusses about manufacturing equipment used in the production of goods or delivery of
services.
- In the process of selecting the type of equipment to purchase, the entrepreneur may
consider types of products to be produced, production system to be adopted, cost of the
equipment, capacity of the equipment, availability of spare parts in the local market,
efficiency of the equipment and the skills required in running the equipment. Method
- Production method discusses the process or way of transforming raw materials to
finished products. The resources undergo some stages before it is finalized and becomes
set for delivery to the target buyers.
- The selection of the method of production is dependent on product to produce, mode of
production, manufacturing equipment to use and required skills to do the work.

Product Description

- Is the promotion that explains what a product is and why it’s worth buying? The purpose
of a product description is to provide customers with details around the features and
benefits of the product so they’re obliged to buy.
- Know who your target market is, focus on the product benefits, tell the full story, use
natural language and tone, use power words that sell, and use good images. These are
guidelines for you to have a good product description; since some customers are very
particular with it since they consider the welfare of their family, if it is safe to use.
Prototyping
A duplication of a product as it will be produced, which may contain such details as color,
graphics, packaging and directions. One of the important early steps in the inventing
process is making a prototype. Benefits are the reasons why customers will decide to buy
the products such as affordability, efficiency or ease of use. The features of the product
or service merely provide a descriptive fact about the product or service.
It is better to test your product prototype to meet customers’ needs and expectations;
and for your product to be known and saleable. Pretesting of the product or service is
similar to a sample of the product or service given to the consumer free of cost in order
that he/she may try the product before committing to a purchase.
Supplier
An entity that offers goods and services to another business. This entity is among of
supply chain of a business, which may offer the main part of the value contained within its
products. Certain suppliers may even involve in drop shipping, where they ship goods directly to
the customers of the buyer.
Suppliers are your business partners, without them your business will not live. You need
them as much as you need your customers to be satisfied. But as an entrepreneur you have to
choose a potential supplier that has loyalty and value your partnership; a supplier that would lead
you to the fulfillment of your business objectives, mission and vision.
Value chain is a method or activities by which a company adds value to an item, with
production, marketing, and the provision of after-sales service. The main goal and benefit of a
value chain, and therefore value chain analysis, is to make or support a competitive benefit.
A supply chain is a structure of organizations, people, activities, data, and resources
involved in moving a product or service from supplier to customer.
The main objective of supply chain management includes management of a varied range
of components and procedures, for instance, storing of raw materials, handling the inventory,
warehousing, and movement of finished product from the point of processing to the point of
consumption.

Business model describes the reasons of how an organization creates, delivers, and
captures value in economic, social, cultural or other contexts. The development of business
model construction and variation is also called business model innovation and forms a part of
business plan.
It is a company's plan for how it will make revenues and make a profit. It describes what
products or services the business plans to manufacture and market, and how it plans to do so, as
well as what expenses it will incur.
There are important phases in developing your business model, namely; Identifying the
specific audience; establishing business process; recording a business resources; developing

3
strong value proposition; determining key business partners; and creating a demand for today’s
generation strategy and be open for innovations.
After developing a business model, we will proceed in developing a business plan. To be
able to successfully complete this module, you need to prepare a business plan and operate your
plan and finally keep records of your business transactions.
Business plan is an important tool for you to have an idea about the future of your
business. Your business plan will be your guide in the moment you will be implementing and
operating your business proposal.
You can also make use of the business plan in securing investment capital from financial
institutions or lenders. It can also be used to influence people to work for your enterprise, to
secure credit from suppliers, and to fascinate potential customers.
Read the stories of Jessie, Mercy and Monna below to fully understand the importance of
having a business plan:
“Jessie is the eldest of five children of Mr. & Mrs. Natividad. The family is having difficulty to support
for their everyday needs. Because of this, Jessie tried to enter selling banana cue and with his dream to
make his business grow, he put up many stalls in the community without considering the advises of his
friends to make a business plan before implementing his decision. After a few months his stalls shutdown.”
“Mercy is the youngest in the family. She found out that she loves to cut hair and apply make up to her
friends. Until such time that her friends introduced her to their friends too for haircut and make up when there
are occasions. Few months after, Mercy was told by her friends to put up a beauty parlor in their place. So
she asks her mother who is also a businesswoman to teach her how to make a business plan and eventually
ended with a successful business.”
“Monna is a diligent student. Because of her knowledge gained from school about business plan
she was able to enhance her skills in business and finally found herself into his laundry shop business.”

Each scenario taught us that business is not just about how much income or profit you
can get but it’s about the life of your business. And in having a business, you also have to
consider technological forces, Social forces, Political forces, Cultural forces, Economic forces and
Legal forces.
The following are the components found in a Business Plan.
• Introduction- this part discusses what is the business plan all about.
• Executive Summary- is part of the business plan which is the first to be presented but
the last to be made.
• Management Section- shows how you will manage your business and the people you
need to help you in your operations.
• Marketing Section- shows the design of your product/service; pricing, where you will sell
and how you will introduce your product/service to your market.
• Financial Section- shows the money needed for the business, how much you will take in
and how much you will pay out.
• Production Section- shows the area, equipment and materials needed for the business.
• Competitive Analysis- is the strategy where you identify major competitors and research
their products, sales and marketing strategies.
• Market- The persons who will buy the product or services
• Organizational chart- is the diagram showing graphically the relation of one official to
another, or others of a company.

MODULE 7: FORECASTING REVENUES AND COSTS

Now that you have identified what business to undertake and are familiar with the tools and materials needed in the
operation of your business, let us apply what you have learned in the previous module by forecasting the revenues and
costs incurred in your business. You might probably be wondering how profits are computed. This module will help guide
you realize the revenues and profits of your chosen business.
Revenue is a result when sales exceed the cost to produce goods or render the services. Cost on the other
hand simply refers to the amount of money used to produce or manufacture goods/merchandise as well as costs incurred
in selling the goods/merchandise. How much revenues and costs incurred in the operation of the business? How are
these projected? And how are these used to compute profit/loss of the business shall be learned in this module.
This module is divided into two lessons:
Lesson 1 – Forecasting the revenues of the business
Lesson 2 – Forecasting the costs to be incurred
To be able to successfully complete this module, previous knowledge in multiplying numbers will best help.
Why forecast? We often watch news as Kuya Kim reports the direction of the typhoon in the next 2 days, what
Kuya Kim is doing is giving us information taken by satellites and gives us the direction of the typhoon. In weather
forecasting, the reporter is giving us advance information that could help us prepare and be ready for upcoming typhoon.
This way, risks such as accidents, devastation of properties and loss of life may be prevented.

Forecasting is a tool used in planning that aims to support management or a business owner in its desire to adjust and cope
up with uncertainties of the future. Forecasting depend on data from the past and present and make meaningful estimates on
revenues and costs. . Forecasting revenues and costs is the same as weather forecasting, though forecasting revenues and
costs is in the context of business. Entrepreneurs use forecasting techniques to determine events that might affect the
operation of the business such as sales expectations, costs incurred in the business as well as the profit that the business is
earning. Making informed estimates reduces risks that might be experienced by the entrepreneur in the future.

In this module, you will be making informed estimates about revenues and calculated estimates involving costs
incurred by the business. Factors affecting forecasting will be discussed to better help you in making projections.
After carefully studying the contents of this module, you should be able to:
• Identify essential factors in forecasting revenues and costs;
• Calculate mark-up and selling price of a product or merchandise;
• Compute projected revenues;
• Compute projected costs.
• Create a table showing projected revenue and costs.

FORECASTING THE REVENUES

Making informed estimates requires careful considerations on several factors that might affect the outcome
of your travel such as, distance from home to school, the means of transportation you will be taking, the number of
passengers and etc. Traveling from home to school on regular basis had helped you arrive with an estimate that was
very close to the actual time of arrival.
Considering these factors are essential in making informed estimates by the entrepreneur. Since the
business he/she is venturing hasn’t started yet, it is important that these factors affecting forecasting will be determined to
better help him/her in making the best decisions for the business.
The entrepreneur after realizing the potential for profit of his/her business concept, the next step is to
estimate how much the revenue is on daily, monthly and annual basis. Before going to forecasting and projecting the
revenues of the business, let us determine first what revenue is.
Revenue is a result when sales exceed the cost to produce goods or render the services. Revenue is
recognized when earned, whether paid in cash or charged to the account of the customer. Other terms related to revenue
includes Sales and Service Income. Sales is used especially when the nature of business is merchandising or retail,
while Service Income is used to record revenues earned by rendering services.
You have just learned about what revenue is. This time, let us study the various factors to consider in
forecasting revenues.
The entrepreneur would want his/her forecasting for his/her small business as credible and as accurate as
possible to avoid complications in the future. In estimating potential revenue for the business, factors such as external
and internal factors that can affect the business must be considered. These factors should serve as basis in forecasting
revenues of the business. These factors are:
1. The economic condition of the country. When the economy grows, its growth is experienced by the
consumers. Consumers are more likely to buy products and services. The entrepreneur must be able to

7
identify the overall health of the economy in order to make informed estimates. A healthy economy makes
good business.
2. The competing businesses or competitors. Observe how your competitors are doing business. Since you
share the same market with them, information about the number of products sold daily or the number of
items they are carrying will give you idea as to how much your competitors are selling. This will give you a
benchmark on how much products you need to stock your business in order to cope up with the customer
demand. This will also give you a better estimate as to how much market share is available for you to
exploit.
3. Changes happening in the community. Changes’ happening in the environment such as customer
demographic, lifestyle and buying behaviour gives the entrepreneur a better perspective about the market.
The entrepreneur should always be keen in adapting to these changes in order to sustain the business. For
example, teens usually follow popular celebrities especially in their fashion trend. Being able to anticipate
these changes allows the entrepreneur to maximize sales potential.
4. The internal aspect of the business. Another factor that affects forecasting revenues in the business itself.
Plant capacity often plays a very important role in forecasting. For example, a “Puto” maker can only make
250 pieces
of puto every day; therefore he/she can only sell as much as 250 pieces of puto every day. The number of
products manufactured and made depends on the capacity of the plant, availability of raw materials and
labour and also the number of salespersons determines the amount of revenues earned by an
entrepreneur.

Now that all factors affecting forecasting revenues are identified, you can now calculate and project potential
revenues of your chosen business. The table below shows an example of revenues forecasted in a Ready to Wear
Online Selling Business.

Example: Ms. Fashion Nista recently opened her dream business and
named Fit Mo’to Ready to Wear Online Selling Business, an online selling business which specializes in ready to wear
clothes for teens and young adults. Based on her initial interview among several online selling businesses, the average
number of tshirts sold every day is 10 and the average pair of fashion jeans sold every day is 6.
From the information gathered, Ms. Nista projected the revenue of her it Fit Mo’to Ready to Wear Online Selling
Business.
She gets her supplies at a local RTW dealer in the city. The cost per piece of t-shirt is 90 pesos, while a pair
of fashion jeans costs 230 pesos per piece. She then adds a 50 percent mark up to every piece of RTW sold.
Mark up refers to the amount added to the cost to come up with the selling
price. The formula for getting the mark up price is as follows:

Mark Up Price = ( Cost x desired mark up percentage)


Mark Up for T-shirt = ( 90.00 x .50)
Mark Up for T-shirt = 45.00
In calculating for the selling price, the formula is as follows:
Selling Price = Cost + Mark Up
Selling Price = 90.00 + 45.00
Selling Price for T-shirt = 135.00

Table 1 shows the projected daily revenue of Ms. Nista’s online selling business. Computations regarding
the projected revenue is presented in letters in upper case A, B, C, D, and E.

Total 320.00 160.00 480.00 16 3,420.00

Table 2 shows the projected monthly and yearly revenue of Ms. Nista’s online selling business.
Computations about the monthly revenue is calculated by multipying daily revenues by 30 days ( 1 month).
Example, in table 1 the daily revenue is 3,420.00. To get the monthly projected revenue it is multiplied by 30
days. Therefore,
Projected Monthly Revenue = Projected daily revenue x 30 days
Projected Monthly Revenue = 3,420.00 x 30

8
Projected Monthly Revenue = 102,600.00
On the other hand, the projected yearly revenue is computed by multiplying the monthly revenue by 12
months. The calculation for projected yearly revenue is as follows.
Projected Yearly Revenue = Projected daily revenue x 365 days
Projected Yearly Revenue = 3,420.00 x 365
Projected Yearly Revenue = 1,248,300.00

Total 480.00 480 102,600.00 5,840 1,248,300.00

Table 3 shows the projected monthly revenues covering one year of operation. The table shows an average
increase of revenue every month by 5 percent except June, July to October and December. While the month of June has
twice the increase from previous month, 10 percent. Let us consider that months covering July to October are considered
to be Off-Peak months, therefore sales from July to October are expected to decrease. It is assumed that there is no
increase in revenue from July to August while from August to October the decrease in revenues is 5 percent from
previous month. Since revenues from sales of RTW’s are considered to be seasonal, it assumed that there is 10 percent
increase in revenue from November to December.
Computation for assumed increase of revenue on specific months is as follows:
Projected Monthly Revenue (Increase) = Revenue (January) x 5 % increase
Projected Monthly Revenue (Increase) = 102,600.00 x .05 Projected Monthly Revenue (Increase)
= 5,130.00

Projected Revenue for February = Revenue (January) + Amount of increase


Projected Revenue for February = 102,600.00 + 5,130.00
Projected Revenue for February = 107,730.00

On the other hand, decrease in revenue is computed as follows:


Projected Monthly Revenue (Decrease) = Revenue (August) x 5 % increase
Projected Monthly Revenue (Increase) = 144,041.14 x .05 Projected Monthly Revenue (Increase)
= 7,202.06

Projected Revenue for September = Revenue (August) - Amount of decrease


Projected Revenue for September = 144,041.14 – 7,202.06 Projected Revenue for September =
136,839.08

June Increase of 10% from previous revenue

July to August The same Revenue

September to October Loss 5% from previous revenue

November Increase 5% from previous revenue

December Increase 10% from previous revenue


The numbers in the last table are very attractive, having revenues that are increasing in numbers is a good
sign that a business is growing. However, an entrepreneur should not be overwhelmed on these revenues as these are
just gross revenue, this is not the final amount of profit or income an entrepreneur will get at the end of every period.
Take note that the amount of net revenue is still subjected to the expenses incurred in the operation of business.

ACTIVITY 1

After learning the calculations presented, you can now compute the projected revenue by day, month and
year based on your business concept.
Aling Minda is operating a buy and sell business, she sells broomsticks (walis tingting) in her stall at a local
market. She gets her broomsticks from a local supplier for 25 pesos each. She then adds 50 percent mark-up on each
broomstick.
Every day, aling Minda can sell 30 broomsticks a day.
Use the template below and fill in the necessary figures based on the scenario. Remember to use the
factors to consider in projecting revenues and refer to tables 1, 2 and 3 as your guide.

LESSON 2: FORECASTING THE COST INCURRED

You have learned in Lesson 1 that the revenue generated by selling RTW’s has a corresponding amount of costs
incurred. This cost was the amount of RTW before adding its mark-up price. Each piece of t-shirt has a corresponding cost of
90.00 pesos, while each pair of jeans has a corresponding cost of 230.00 pesos. These costs are incurred each time
revenues are generated. On the other hand, the business also incurs costs in its operation, these costs are called Operating
Expenses. Operating expenses such as payment on Internet connection, Utilities expense (i.e.Electricity), Salaries and
Wages and Miscellaneous are essential in the operation of the business; this allows the business to continue operate in a
given period of time.
Now that you have learned what cost is, let us identify the costs and
expenses incurred by the business in generating revenues.

ACTIVITY 2

Have you tried recording the amount of money you spend from your daily allowance? You might be experiencing
difficulties in making your allowance meet your daily needs as student. Try to fill in the information below to come up with a
breakdown of your daily allowance.

Breakdown on Daily Allowance


Name: ______________________

Daily Allowance: Ᵽ __________


Less: Daily Expenses
Food Ᵽ_________
Fare _________
School Supplies _________
Recreation _________
Others _________ ___________
Total Ᵽ ___________

Were you able to get a positive total? You may have spent your daily allowance wisely and saved some of your
daily allowance. Did you spend all your allowance and ended up with a zero total? You may have spent your allowance
on expenses essential to your need as a student.
Considering your expenses as a student, a business also has expenses necessary for its upkeep. It would be
best for any business to arrive with a positive total; this would mean profit for the business. Careful consideration and
projection of these factors could mean success for the business.

You have just learned about what cost is. This time let us identify costs and expenses incurred by the business.

Cost of Goods Sold / Cost of Sales refer to the amount of merchandise or goods sold by the business for a
given period of time. This is computed by adding the beginning inventory to the Net Amount of Purchases to arrive with
Cost of goods available for sale from which the Merchandise Inventory end is subtracted.
Merchandise Inventory, beginning refers to goods and merchandise at the beginning of operation of
business or accounting period.
Purchases refer to the merchandise or goods purchased. Example: Cost to
buy each pair of Jeans or t-shirt from a supplier.
Merchandise Inventory, end refers to goods and merchandise left at the end of operation or accounting
period.
Freight-in refers to amount paid to transport goods or merchandise purchased from the supplier to the
buyer. In this case, it is the buyer who shoulders this costs.

11
In a merchandising business such as Fit Mo’to Ready to Wear Online Selling Business, the formula to
compute for costs of goods sold is as follows:

Merchandise Inventory, beginning P XX.XX


Add: Net Cost of Purchases XX.XX
Freight-in XX.XX
Cost of Goods Available for Sale P XX.XX
Less: Merchandise Inventory, end XX.XX
Cost of Goods Sold P XX.XX

Let us calculate the cost of goods sold of Ms. Fashion Nista’s online selling business for the month of
January.
Table 4 shows the costs incurred during the first month of operation of Fit
Mo’to Ready to Wear Online Selling Business. Since Ms. Nista get her stocks from an online supplier, there is no need to
order ahead and stock more items. Therefore, there is no Merchandise Inventory, beginning as well as Merchandise
Inventory, end. Ready to wear items purchased online from the supplier are then sold as soon as they arrived.
Cost of goods is calculated by simply multiplying the number of items sold every month (300 t-shirts and 180
pairs of jeans) to its corresponding cost per unit (90.00 pesos for every t-shirt and 230.00 pesos for every pair of jeans).
A cost in transporting the goods from the supplier to the seller (Ms. Nista) or Freight-in is then added to Net Cost of
Purchases.

Jeans 230.00 180 41,400.00

Total 320.00 480 68,400.00

Table 5 shows how freight-in is calculated.


It is assumed that at an average, Ms. Nista pays at least 250.00 pesos for every 12 items delivered successfully by her
supplier through a courier service.
Since her average order is 480 pieces every month, she pays:
480 pcs. / 12 pcs. = 40
40 x 250.00 = 10,000.00

Table 5
Freight-in paid by Ms. Nista every month

T-Shirts 10 300 6,250.00
Jeans 6 180 3,750.00
Total 16 480 10,000.00

Let us now substitute the values from table 4 and table 5. Since there is no Merchandise Inventory,
beginning and end, let us add Cost of Purchases and Freight-in to get the Cost of Goods Sold.
Merchandise Inventory, beginning P 00.00
Add: Net Cost of Purchases 68,400.00

Freight-in 10,000.00

Cost of Goods Available for Sale P 78,400.00

12
Less: Merchandise Inventory, end 00.00

Cost of Goods Sold P 78,400.00

Now that the cost of goods sold is now calculated, let us now identify expenses that the business incurs in its
operation. Operating expenses such as Internet connection, Utilities like electricity and miscellaneous expense are
important to keep the business running. These expenses are part of the total costs incurred by the business in its day-to-
day operation and are paid every end of the month. The operating expenses and assumed amount are presented below:
Operating Expenses
Add: Internet Connection P 1,299.00
Utilities (Electricity) 800.00
Miscellaneous expense P 300.00
Total Operating Expense P 2,399.00
To calculate the total costs incurred by the business, cost of goods sold and total operating expenses are
then added. The calculation for the costs incurred for the month of January is presented below:

Cost of Goods Sold P 78,400.00


Total Operating Expense P 2,399.00
Cost P 80,799.00

The projected monthly costs covering the first of operation of Ms. Nista’s
Fit Mo’to RTW Online Selling Business is presented in Table 6.

MODULE 8: COMPUTATION OF GROSS PROFIT

As we all know that profit is a financial gain from a transaction or from a period of investment or business activity,
usually calculated as income in excess of costs or as the final value of an asset in excess of its initial value.
It is a total revenue minus total expenses, profit is the amount of money a business "makes" during a given
accounting period. The more profit you make, the better, as profit can be re-invested into the business or retained by the
business owners. Being able to accurately determine your business's profit is an essential part of being able to judge its
financial health. It can also help you decide how to price your goods and services, how to pay your employees, and more.
To make your business gain more profit, begin by adding up all of the money your business has made in a set
period of time (either, quarterly, yearly, monthly, etc. Other sources, like products sold, services rendered, membership
payments, or, in the case of government agencies, taxes, fees, the sales of resource rights, and so on.
Note that you will need to subtract any amount of cash refunded to customers for returns or disputes in order to find
an accurate figure for your total income.
It's easier to understand the process of calculating a business's profit by following along with an example.
Let's say that we own a small publishing business. In the last month, we sold P20,000 worth of books to retailers in
the area. However, we also sold the rights to one of our intellectual properties for P7,000 and received P3,000 from book
retailers for official promotional materials. If these represent all of our revenue sources, we can say that our total income is
P20,000 + P7,000 + P3,000 = P30,000.

LESSON 1: COMPUTATION OF GROSS PROFIT

Let’s review of what is revenue of the business. This is an important tool and materials needed in the operation of the
business. It is said that revenue is the result when sales exceed the cost to produce or manufacture goods/merchandise as
well as costs incurred in selling.

Forecast is advance information that could help us prepare and ready for any incoming event. Forecasting is the tool
used in planning that aims to support management or a business owner in its desire to adjust and cope up with uncertainties
of the future. If anyone of us can predict that we can be rich so it means all of us will be rich. This fantasy is played out every
day in boardrooms across the globe with the practice of business forecasting.

It is important to have a good organization in the business to easily grow and expand in the future.

Activity 1

Read and understand the given problem.

Rodrigo is engaged in a buy-and sell business of perfumes. He bought 10 boxes of perfumes. Each box costs
12,000.00 and contains a dozens of perfume bottles. He is planning to sell one perfume bottle at P1,500. What is his
expected profit on the 10 boxes of perfumes?
The ultimate goal of any business whether a retail or wholesale is to earn a profit. Getting the difference between the
amount of money earned from the selling 10 boxes containing a dozen of perfume bottles and the cost of those 10 boxes
gives the profit.

In the example that I gave, answer the following questions:


1. How much does Rodrigo earned profit?
2. Is it good to engage in a business? Yes or No?
3. What do you think of Rodrigo’s business? Is it good for a beginner?

Compute the Gross Profit

The profitability ratios are a group of financial statement that primarily determine the profitability of the business
operation.
The gross profit rate on a product is computed as:
Net Sales xxxxxxx
Less: Cost of sales xxxxxxx
Gross profit xxxxxxx

By using the formula, the gross of XYZ Trading in the year 2017
Net Sales P 734, 000.00
Less: Cost of Sales 577, 000.00
Gross Profit 157, 000.00

15
Profit is the gross income. The amount of gross profit provides information to the entrepreneur about revenue
earned from sales.
The term cost refers to the purchase price of the product including of the product including the total outlay required in
producing it.
The gross profit margin is computed as follows:

The gross profit rate measures the percentage of gross profit to sales, indicating the profit that the business realizes
from the sale of the product.

The gross profit rate of XYZ Trading for the year computed as follows:

T The gross profit rate may signal to the entrepreneur that the amount of margin on sales is 21.39%. This rate will be
used to determine whether the amount of gross profit can cover the operating of the business. Since the gross profit rate of
XYZ Trading is 21.39%, the cost ratio to sales will be 78.61%. This information will help the entrepreneur in assessing
whether the cost is too high or too low. Any product with a very high cost will not become competitive in the market.

The gross profit rate will also help the entrepreneur set the selling price.

Operating Profit Margin Rate

The operating the profit margin is the excess of gross profit from operating expenses.
Gross profit xxxxx
Less: Operating Expenses xxxxx
Operating profit margin xxxxx

The operating profit margin is the second level of revenue in the income statement. At this stage, not only the cost of
buying or making the product that has been deducted is included but also the operating expenses. These are expenses
incurred during a particular period only, and are not expected to provide benefits to any future period. The operating expenses
are also period costs.

In case there are no financing charges like interest, expenses, and income tax, the amount of the operating profit
margin is equal to the net income.
Gross profit P 157,000.00
Less: Operating expenses 90,000.00
Operating profit margin P 67,000.00

This information that the business realized an income of P 67,000.00 during the year after deducting the cost and
operating expenses from the sales made.

By applying

The operating profit margin of the business measures the percentage of profit available after deducting the cost of
sales & operating expenses of the business. A higher operating profit margin is favorable to the business.

Net Profit Margin Rate

Operating profit margin xxxxxxx


Add: Interest Income xxxxxxx Total
Less: Interest Expense xxxxxx
Income Tax xxxxxx xxxxxx
Net Profit margin xxxxxx

The Income statement.is the net profit margin & the third level in the revenue.
The business is only given consideration like interest expense and income tax.

16
Operating profit margin P67,000.00
Less: Income tax 20,000.00
Net profit margin P46,900.00 The income statement of XYZ
Trading does not reflect any data on interest expense. Only income tax has been deducted from the
operating profit margin.

By applying the formula, the profit margin of XYZ

XYZ Trading appears to have earned 6.39% of its total sales of P734,000 during the year. This profits rate must be
compared with those of other similar businesses within the industry.

Analyze the Liquidity Status of the Business

Liquidity Ratios
Current ratio = Current assets / Current liabilities
Quick ratio =(Current assets – Inventories) / Current liabilities
= (Cash and equivalents + Marketable securities + Accounts receivable) / Current liabilities
The quick ratio measures its short-term obligations with its most liquid assets and therefore excludes inventories
from its current assets.
. Financial statements are important in a company management as a means of communicating past successes as well
as future expectations. The financial statement records all the operating results such as sales, expenses and profits or losses.

Return of Investment (ROI)

The Return of investment (ROI) measures the amount of net income per peso invested to the business.
The formula to compute ROI is as follows

The average total assets are by dividing the sum of the total assets at the beginning and end of the period.

The profitability and ratios are a group financial statement ratios that primarily determine the profitability of the
business operation. They provide information on the efficiency of resource utilization.
The gross profit represents the difference between net sales and cost of sales of the entrepreneurial venture during a
given period. It is computed as follows:

Net Sales xxxxxx


Less: Cost of Sales xxxxxx
Gross Profit xxxxxx
By using the formula, the gross profit of XYZ Co., in the year 2017 is computed as follows:
Net Sales P734,000.00
Less: Cost of Sales 577,000.00
Gross profit P 157,000.00
Profit is determined by:

What is Bookkeeping?

Bookkeeping is the process of recording business transactions in a systematic and chronological


manner.
It is systematic because it follows procedures and principles. On the other hand, it is chronological because the
transactions are recorded in order of the date of occurrence.
Bookkeeping is the starting point of the accounting process. A sound bookkeeping system is the foundation
for gathering the information necessary to answer questions related to profitability, solvency and liquidity of the
business.

What is a Bookkeeper?

Each business has a bookkeeper who is in charge to record, maintain and update business records from all
sorts of financial transactions using account title that can be found in the charts of accounts already set up by the
Accountant.

The bookkeeping function dictates the bookkeeper to keep track of all financial transactions of the business.
Only transactions that has monetary value will be recorded.

The bookkeeper uses the Book of Accounts to record the business transactions which is to be
consolidated later to help construct financial statement such as the Trial Balance, Income Statement and Balance
Sheet.

What is a Book of Account?

The book of accounts is composed of the Journal and Ledger. It depends on the type of business, some
businesses used special journals when they are engaged merchandising type of business to records business
transactions. This module will cover and provide example for service oriented business. Thus, only journal and
ledger will be used in the succeeding examples.

There are two types of books used in recording business transactions. They are called journals and
ledgers.

Journal refers to the book of original entry while the Ledger refers to the book of final entry.

24
What is a General Journal?

The general journal is the most basic journal which provides columns for date, account titles and
explanations, folio or references and a separate column for debit and credit entries. Depicted in figure 1 below is a
sample format of a general journal:

Figure 1 – General Journal


What is a General Ledger?

The general ledger is a grouping of all accounts directly traceable to chart of accounts. These accounts will
be reflected in the financial statements as a summary of all financial activities that have taken place as recorded in
the general journal and subsidiary ledgers. Depicted in figure 2 below is a sample format of a general ledger:

Figure2 – GeneralLedger
What is a Subsidiary Ledger?

The subsidiary ledger is a group of accounts directly associated from the general ledger. This record is
created to maintain individual accounts for customers and vendors whose cash is not being used as a medium of
exchange when purchasing or selling merchandise. Depicted in figure 3 and 4 below is a sample format of a
subsidiary ledgers Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable respectively:

Accounts Receivable

Buyer/Customer: Veggies Trading 11

Figure 3 – Accounts Receivable Ledger

Figure 4 – Accounts Payable Ledger


The Rules of Debit and Credit

In the process of journalization, following the rules of Debit and Credit are essential part to ensure accurate
recording and sound decision making. Debit is abbreviated as DR while CR for Credit.
It is a requirement that the bookkeeper is able to master the normal balance of each account title before
performing the tasks of bookkeeper.

When to Debit?

25
When cash or non-cash items are received, the said cash or non-cash items must be recorded in the debit column.
This means that the debit balance increased. It is called Value Received.

When to Credit?

When cash or non-cash items are given, the said cash or non-cash items must be recorded in the credit
column. This means that the credit balance is increased. It is called Value Parted with.

The following steps will be undertaken in determining account balances for every account title such as cash,
account receivable, etc.:

1. Add all the debit side to generate total debit 2. Add all the credit
side to generate total credit.
3. Subtract total debit to the total credit.
4. Determine the balance of each account.

TRIAL BALANCE

Trial balance is a list of all ledger accounts with closed or final balances on a certain period arranged
according to the rules of debit and credit. The debit and credit columns must be equal in total amount. This is the
first report prior to financial statement preparation. Depicted in figure 7 below is a sample format of a trial balance
report with peso amount.
Figure 7: Sample format of Trial Balance


As you have observed, the accounts reflected in figure 7 above are arranged according to the proper
placement of the five major accounts. The Assets, Liabilities,
Owner’s Equity, Revenue and Expense accounts. You may refer to figure 6.

On the other hand, the trial balance report has two phases. The first phase “Unadjusted trial balance” is a report of
all balances after the posting of the general ledger accounts. The general ledger account balances are extracted to
construct the unadjusted trial balance. Meanwhile, the second phase is the “Adjusted trial balance”. This phase is a
final report of trial balance after all necessary adjustments in journal entries are posted in the general ledger.

What is an Adjusting Entry?

Making an adjusting entry helps the bookkeeper capture all financial events happened over a period of time
within the accounting cycle. It is essential in keeping the financial record updated. The bookkeeper is going to look or
examine accounts that needs to be updated. Outlined below are the five basic sources of adjusting entries:
1. Depreciation expense
2. Deferred expenses of prepaid expenses
3. Deferred income of unearned income
4. Accrued expenses of accrued liabilities
5. Accrued income or accrued assets

1. Depreciation.

This is a method of allocating the cost of an asset to an expense over the accounting periods that make up
the asset’s useful life. Examples of assets subject to depreciation are: Store, Office, Building, and Transportation
equipment. These types of assets lose their ability to provide useful service as time passes. Depreciation can also be
referred to as the decrease in the usefulness of these types of assets. Take note that Land is not subject to
depreciation because the value of land mostly increases as time passes.

There are several methods or formulas to compute the amount of depreciation.


The simplest is the straight line method.

26
The formula:
(Acquisition Cost – Salvage or Residual Value)

Annual Depreciation = Useful Life


Where:
• Acquisition cost – the actual cost of the asset acquired.
• Salvage value – the selling price of the asset upon reaching the useful life.
• Useful life – is the economic or productive life of the asset.

Illustrative problem:

The cost of the equipment is PHP25,000. It was estimated to have a useful life of five years. It is estimated
that after five years, the office equipment can be sold at a scrap value of PHP1,000. To compute for the monthly
depreciation, just divide the annual depreciation by 12. One year is composed of 12 months.

(P 25 ,000 – P 1,000)
P 40 0 =
60 months

- (5 yrs x 12 mos. = 60 months) Adjusting entry:

The depreciation expense is an allocated for all sixed assets except land. Example are building, equipment
and or machineries that the business is using to generate income. It shall be reported as an expense account in the
income statement directly attributable in the said fixed assets. While the accumulated depreciation is a balance sheet
account but treated as a contra-account to the concerned fixed asset.
Refer to the illustration below:

As of ____________

Equipment (at cost) P 25,000

Less: Accumulated Depreciation-Equipment 400

Net Book value of Equipment P 24,600

2. Deferred expenses or prepaid expenses.

These are items that have been initially recorded as assets but are expected to become expenses over time
or through the operations of the business.

In order to recognize the correct amount of expenses, prepayments shall be amortized weekly, semi-
monthly or monthly, depending on its nature and purpose.

Illustrative problem:

Purchased P5,000 worth of office supplies on account. By the end of the month, PHP2,000 worth of these
supplies are still unused.

The supplies expense is an income statement account, while the supplies which is now credited is an asset
account. All asset has a normal debit balance. Considering that the supplies in this record is credited, this will be
deducted to the supplies account in the balance sheet to generate the remaining balance in supplies.

3. Deferred income of unearned income

These are items that have been initially recorded as liabilities but are expected to become income over time
or through the operations of the business.

Illustrative problem:

On February 15, 2016 Matapang entered into a contract with Makisig to maintain the computers of Makisig
for two months starting on February 15, 2016 up to April 15, 2016. On the same date, Makisig paid the total contract
amount of PHP40,000 in full. The entries to record and adjust the books are: In the February 29, 2016 entry above,
as of end of February 2016, Matapang has already earned the service revenue for the first 15 days, thus an
adjusting entry is recorded.

4. Accrued expenses of accrued liabilities

These are items of expenses that have been incurred but have not been recorded and paid.

Illustrative problem:
On February 29, 2016, Matapang received the electric bill for the month of February amounting to
PHP3,800. Matapang will pay this bill on March 2016. The electric bill represents the cost of electricity used (or
incurred) for February. Although the said bill is still unpaid and thus was not recorded, the matching principle and
accrual basis of accounting dictates that the same should be recorded in February. Otherwise, your expense will be
understated and thus the company will be reporting an overstated income (or an erroneous income). Needless to
say, erroneous information may lead to wrong decisions. The entry to record the accrual of this expense is:

5. Accrued expenses of accrued liabilities

These are income items that have been earned but have not been recorded and paid by the customer. In
short, these are receivables of the business.

Illustrative problem:

On February 28, 2016, Matapang repaired the computer of Pedro for PHP15,000. Pedro was on an out-of-
town trip so he could not pay Matapang. He told Matapang that he will pay for their services on March 1, 2016.
Matapang has already earned the PHP15,000 but was not paid as of the end of February 2016. Therefore, an
income should be properly recognized in February 2016 for this transaction. The entry to record this is:

LESSON 2: PREPARE INCOME STATEMENT AND A BALANCE SHEET

INCOME STATEMENT

This statement is one of the major financial report. Also known as profit and loss statement or statement of
comprehensive income. This statement summarizes the results of company’s operations for a specific period of
time. If the result of operation is positive, then the business earns net income otherwise, net loss.

Ledger accounts that can be found in the income statement are called Temporary accounts of Nominal accounts.
They are called such because at the end of the accounting period, balances under these accounts are transferred to
the capital account, thus having only temporary amounts and resulting to zero beginning balances at the beginning
of the following year. (Haddock, Price, & Farina, 2012) Examples of temporary accounts include revenues, sales,
utilities expense, supplies expense, salaries expense, depreciation expense, interest expense among others.

Depicted in figure 8 below is sample format of an income statement.

The different parts of income statement are:


• The heading or title of report
• Name of the company
• Date or period covered Major parts are:
• Income or revenues - consist of all income received within the period upon provision of services for
service-concern business and sales for merchandising
• Expenses – money spent during the conduct of business operations
• Net income / net loss – the outcome of business operations.

29
Figure 8 – Income statement of a Service Type Business

and owner’s equity. In general, it provides the financial condition of the business on a specific date.

The balance sheet is composed of Permanent accounts. Permanent in nature because their balances remain
intact and will be forwarded from one period to another.

Contra asset are those asset account presented under the asset portion of the balance sheet such as Allowance for
Bad debts and Accumulated depreciation. Depicted in figure 9 below is sample format of a balance sheet of a
service type business presented in as an account format with contra asset account.

The different parts of balance sheet are:


• The heading or title of report
• Name of the company
• Date or period covered

Major parts are:

• Assets (Current and Non-current)

Current Assets – Assets that can be realized (collected, sold, used up) one year after year-end date.
Examples include Cash, Accounts Receivable, Merchandise Inventory, Prepaid Expense, etc.
Current Assets are arranged based on which asset can be realized first (liquidity). Current assets and
current liabilities are also called short term assets and shot term liabilities.

LESSON 3: IDENTIFY IF THERE IS PROFIT OR LOSS OF A BUSINESS

Profitability has always been the overall goal of the business. It is of great achievement in a successful
implementation of strategic, operating and other plans.

In identifying the profit or loss of a business, the business will record every detail of all business
transactions and translate it into financial report.

An income statement is a financial report that reveals the total revenue or income, total expenses incurred during the
conduct of the business and, most of all the net profit or net loss as a result of business operations over a specified
period of time.

Below is the basic equation of income statement of a service-concern business:

Net Income/Loss =Service Income - Total Expenses

LESSON 4: Interpret Financial Statements (Balance Sheet, Income Statement,


Cash Flow Projections and Summary of Sales and Cash Receipts)

INTERPRETATION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Financial statements will reveal the outcome of the business operations. A financial analyst is like a medical
doctor who will conduct diagnosis by reading the financial report and render interpretations on it which will be used
as the basis of a sound economic decision making.

As previously defined, balance sheet reflects the financial position and condition of the business. The financial
position refers to the assets of the business which will be financed by the liability and owner’s equity. On the other
hand, financial condition refers to the situation wherein assets, liability and owner’s equity are used to maximize
income. Also, assets, liability and owner’s equity may encounter growth or decline in value.

There are many available financing tools to be used in analysing and interpreting financial statements. It depends
on the purpose. Most of these tools are able to evaluate and interpret asset growth of the business, profitability,
liquidity and solvency. In general, it will provide a bird’s eye view of the overall health of the business.

Depicted in figure 14 below is a matrix of financial interpretation with formula and explanation.

business transactions that transpired during the month. It will reflect the inflows and outflows of cash, provisions of
services which generate income.

The debit and credit columns should always be equal. Otherwise, the record will affect overall accuracy of
the entire financial record. The error should be properly corrected before the next step in the recording process takes
place.

Activity 2 : Posting journal entries to the General Ledger using T - accounts.

In this activity, you are task to post journal entries in the general ledger. The most convenient and fastest
way of posting journal entries to the ledger is by way of using “T” Account. A T- Account is divided into two sides.
The left- hand side is called the debit side and the right-hand side which is the credit side. The left -hand or debit
side shows the value received while the right-hand side shows the value parted with.
This is called T account because it resembles capital letter “T.” an account title is written above the T- account.

After performing the T-accounts, balances for each account under Assets, Liabilities, Capital,
Revenue/Income and Expenses, can now be determined.

Depicted in figure 12 below is a T-account and its description:

What is cash receipt?

Cash Receipts include all of a firm’s inflows of cash in a given financial period. The most common
components of cash receipts are cash sales, collections of accounts receivable, and other cash receipts.

What is a sales report?

A sales report is a record of all sales transactions. There are two type of sales transactions. A cash sales and a
credit sale.

The amount received in cash sales transactions will be recorded in the cash receipt record book bearing the account
cash. This will increase cash inflow. While the credit sales transactions cannot be recorded in the cash receipt
record book because there were no inflows of cash. Instead, it will be recorded in the account receivable account.
This means, that the business has a collectible account from a customer who bought the merchandise on his/her
account.

What Is Cash Flow Projection?

A cash flow report records all cash inflow or out flow of the business.

Normally, it will report three business activities, namely, the operating, investing and financing activities.

The operating activities involves the main operations of the business which the buying supplies (cash outflow) and
selling (cash inflow) of its products.

The investing activities involves the acquisition of long term or fixed assets of the business (cash outflow) and
selling the old one’s cash inflow).

The financing activities involves the acquisition of capital of the business thru borrowings or investors ( cash inflow)
and payments of investors and creditors (cash outflow).

The cash flow projection is an important task of an accountant to determine the cash requirement for the next period
of business operations. The business will be guided as to how much cash should be needed in order to pay
operating expenses and how much cash should the business spend for fixed assets in order to increase sales, cash
collection or a market share.
