專案管理第四章 進行財務分析
你可以從下幾個方面來參與財務分析工作:
1. 計算現金流入:廣泛思考以找出你的專案能幫公司賺錢或省錢的所有方式。你可以參考用來提高營收的方式,包括:增加銷售業績、降低營運成本以擴大利潤、節省材料與減少廢料等。
Estimate cash inflows: Think broadly to identify all the ways in which your project may help increase dollars taken in or the portion of those dollars your company can keep. Consider increased revenue from higher sales, greater margins due to lower operating costs, material savings, and waste reduction.
2. 計算現金流出:找出專案的一切支出,包括薪資、材料、設備、資訊科技、外部顧問等等。另外也要考量專案帶來的持續支出,例如營運成本增加等。
Estimate the outflows: Identify any expenditure incurred for the project, including salaries, material, equipment, IT, external consultants, etc. Think too about ongoing expense that may result, such as increased operating costs.
3. 繪製現金流量表:整理出年度資金流出與流入(也可以以季為單位,是產業性質而定)。如果你的專案需經多年累積,那就合公司內部的財務專家一起將通貨膨脹因素列入,找出折現值。
Construct a cash flow tables: Summarize outflows and inflows by years( or by quarter, depending on your industry). Work with internal financial experts to identify the discounted value if your projects results will accumulate over years, to account for inflation.
