We hope your business is successful and continues to
grow. Growth can lead to the need for
additional capital or additional debt.
We can assist with many issues related to business
expansion.
Lease versus Buy Decisions
We can provide comparisons of
after-tax consequences to cash flow based on leasing versus purchasing required
property, plant and equipment.
Increased Working Capital Requirements
Usually the expansion of business
generates the need for an additional amount of working capital. Working capital is primarily cash, accounts
receivable, and inventory, less accounts payable, accrued items and current
portion of long-term debt. We can assist
with the compilation of projected cash flow statements.
Acquisition of Existing Businesses
Sometimes expansion comes best
through acquisition of existing businesses.
This can provide an expanded customer base; property, plant and
equipment already in production; a work force in place; and it might even eliminate
a competitor. We can assist in the
valuation of that prospective business purchase.
Bank Financing
A company often needs additional
bank financing to help fund an expansion.
A bank or other lending institution often requires documentation to substantiate
the creditworthiness of a loan. We can
help provide items the bank might require:
- Historical financial statements to provide
documentation of past success
- Prospective financial statements to support an
understanding of the proposed plan
- Personal financial statements for the owners of
the business
- Copies of tax returns for the business and for
the owners
