FINANCIAL PLANNING AND FORECASTING

REVENUE FORECAST

We have estimated the expected sales for our company Bahon for the next 3 years using

our best judgement. For the entire business plan, the assumptions that we are setting is extremely

important and solely based on judgement. Initially, in our first year of operation, we have

assumed a conservative position with a base number of services of only 300 in the first month.

As we move forward, we have assumed an exponential increment in our service’s demand, and

therefore, driving up the number of services in every month till December. For the 2023, we

have broken down our implied revenue on a monthly basis.

We have used exponential smoothing to derive a more accurate analysis of our

calculation for the number of services provided per month in the year 2023. The service charge

per user has been assumed to be TK 82 BDT inside the target areas on average per user

considering the increase in crude oil and gas price, and the overall inflationary effects on the

economy. Due to our heavy marketing and promotional events, we are expecting a sharp increase

in our user base for the months following January. The following contains the monthly sales

breakdown for the year 2023.

Break Even Analysis

While most delivery services are a demand for a big metropolitan city such as Dhaka, the
number of quality service providers are quite scarce. Keeping that in mind, our goal is to provide
the excellent top-of-the-shelf service against our competitors and quickly grab a significant
market share. With that goal in mind, we plan to heavily invest on marketing and promotional
campaigns. This drives up our operational costs, however, with using our best judgement, and
considering the potential demand in the market, our projections and analysis gives us a small but
a positive Net profit from our first year, given we received investments from an experienced
angel investors with particular expertise on the market. With all the insights and wisdom, we are
confident in our judgment that we will reach breakeven at the start of our beginning operational
year. Keeping that in mind, we did not find it necessary to show a detailed calculation of the
break-even analysis.

Sources of Fund

In the initial stage of we assumed a capital investment of 2000,000. We have a total of four
partners, and we will contribute BDT TK 250,000 each. The rest BDT 1000,000 TK will be
funded by an angel investor, for a 10% equity in the company. As we are initially financing our
business through capital investments, we will not be highly leveraged company. We will only
acquire some short-term loans to meet our short-term operational obligations.

From the above graph, we can analyze the Net Profit margin for our company in the next 4 years.
AS we can see a steady growth from 2023 to 2024, we can however see a decline in 2025, which
indicates a heavy investment for capital expenditures for possible expansion of the company.
Later, we can again see an upward trend from 2026 in our NPM.

We have calculated the ROA for our business using the pro-forma statements. As we can see,

there is a sharp increase from the year 2023 to 2024, however, we can also see a massive decline

in 2025, and then again, the company ROA increased in the year 2026, which simply implies that

the company made several capital expenditures and very likely to squeeze more profits in the

coming future.
