Financial modelling

Empower yourself and get greater control and clarity when it comes to making decisions about your business.

Baker Tilly Staples Rodway has an expert, multi-disciplinary team trained in financial modelling to ensure the services provided are high quality, low risk and offer excellent value.

The use of special software reduces the risk of errors, producing models that are easy to understand and use, and quick to build. The ultimate outcome of a financial modelling engagement is a set of historical and forecast financial statements. These show how a business has performed to date and how it will perform in the future, based on a set of assumptions. Baker Tilly Staples Rodway is a New Zealand for Modano financial modelling software partner.

Growing your business

  • Forecasts prepared using financial modelling can be used to support funding applications, producing a robust integrated income statement, balance sheet and cash flow statement.
  • Cash flow forecasts will indicate your working capital requirements to support your business growth and decision-making.
  • Reports can analyse business performance against forecast/budget and dashboards, tracking your growth versus goals.

Flexible financial modelling 

  • The financial model is created in Excel so it can be viewed by anyone with Microsoft Office and allows the model developer flexibility to customise areas.
  • Assumptions and calculations are separately identifiable so the model user can easily change assumptions to understand how the business will perform under different scenarios.
  • The financial model combines generic areas selected for the business to produce a "whole of business financial model" encompassing tax, capital structure, working capital, operational, outputs, assets, financial statements and checks.
