TEMPLATE DESCRIPTION

Financial planning is crucial to each type of business. And, this Grocery Store Financial Model Excel Template will allow you to produce financial forecasts using alternative scenarios for your grocery shop.

Grocery stores, being one of the oldest types of businesses, have now become an umbrella term for different types of retail facilities, including supermarkets, convenience shops, greengrocers, and ethnic markets. Whether you are going to operate a small neighborhood’s grocery shop, niche shop, or supermarket, you need a financial plan.

Grocery-Financial-Model-Someka-S01-2In summary, with this tool, you will be able to:

  • Produce monthly and yearly financial projections for up to 10 years, using different assumptions;
  • Also account for long-term marketing trends, as well as seasonal fluctuations of sales and prices;
  • And lastly, evaluate capital requirements and make rationing of capital, combining debt and equity in different proportions.

Moreover, it is quite simple and intuitively understandable, even for newcomers.  Besides, you can use this grocery store financial model to produce nicely and professionally looking pro forma statements and charts to present to lenders or co-investors.

So, let us have a look at the Grocery Store Financial Model tool.

Grocery Store Financial Model Excel Template Features:

This Excel template allows you to calculate widely used investment metrics such as payback period, discounted payback period, Net Present Value (NPV) and Internal Return Rate (IRR). It also takes into account the effect of taxation.

You also have to understand clearly how much of your own money you will be able to put into the business, along with the loans available to cover any deficit of capital.

DASHBOARD & SETTINGS

In general, the Dashboard section contains settings and assumptions for your workbook:

  • Firstly, a Model Config section;
  • Secondly, a table of goods’ categories;
  • Lastly, a table of long-term sales trends.

Model Configuration in Grocery Store Financial Model Template

Grocery-Financial-Model-Someka-S02

  • Set a length of the Projection Period. You can set if 2 to 10 years, just pick a relevant value from the drop-down list;
  • Afterward, enter the Start Date of the project;
  • Also, enter a code of the currency in which all monetary amounts will be displayed in;
  • The Discount Rate will be applied to the calculation of Net Present Value (NPV) of the project.
  • Finally, enter Income Tax Rate that will affect net profit after taxation.

Good’s Categories

Grocery-Financial-Model-Someka-S03

You have to enter a list of categories and related assumptions. Assumptions here have the following meanings:

  • Markup percentage shows how much you are going to add to the hard cost of goods in order to get regular selling price before discounts;
  • Credit Period is the number of days showing how long it is going to take on average to pay for purchased goods;
  • Days of Inventory is a number of days showing how fast each category of goods can be sold, in other words how many days of sales your inventory is going to cover;
  • Finally, Shrinkage & Theft percentage shows how much of your inventory is going to be lost rather than sold.

Sales Trends:

A table of sales trends allows you to set long-term trends in order to account for overall sales over the years. But, if you do not expect your sales to change from year to year, you can leave this table blank.

The Dashboard also contains a navigation pane allowing you to access any part of the template.

REVENUE & COST MODEL INPUTS OF GROCERY STORE FINANCIAL MODEL

1. Sales & Inventory

In the Sales & Inventory section, select respective goods categories in the Sales Forecast table. For each category, enter the projected Average Daily Revenue. To account for seasonal changes, use the Seasonal Sales Trend and Seasonal Discounts tables.

The Seasonal Sales Trend table allows you to enter, for each category, and each month of a year, percentages of average sales (in physical units).

Grocery-Financial-Model-Someka-S04

If you do not expect changes in sales over a year, you can leave this blank.

Similarly, the Seasonal Discounts table allows you to account for seasonal fluctuations of prices separately from fluctuating physical quantities. Leave it blank if you do not expect any pricing seasonality:

Grocery-Financial-Model-Someka-S05

As a matter of fact, if you expect selling prices to increase over time (for example, due to inflation), enter the respective increase rate along with its frequency into the Price Increase fields.

Besides, the projections of sales revenue and cost of sales will be calculated automatically. If you expect inflation-driven changes in purchase prices to happen over time, enter respective parameters into the Cost Increase fields in your financial model for grocery stores.Grocery-Financial-Model-Someka-S06

Likewise, the forecasts of inventory at cost, at the end of each month, will be calculated by multiplying the average daily cost of sales in the next month by the number of Days of Inventory.

The difference between the opening and closing inventory, plus costs of sales, will give us the projected cost of purchased goods. For example, if you set your purchase credit period to a non-zero value, your cash payments to suppliers will lag after the purchase of goods by the respective number of days.

Grocery-Financial-Model-Someka-S07

After you entered sales-related assumptions in the Sales & Inventory section, go to the Fixed Costs section.

2. Fixed Costs

Firstly, in the Staff table, enter the names of employee positions, along with their respective salaries. Then, enter the expected numbers of employees for each projected month.

If you expect that salaries will increase over time, enter expected increase rates and frequencies into the Salary Increase fields. Time-adjusted salaries will be calculated for each month of the projected period.

Fixed-Cost-Grocery-Shop-Someka-S08

In the Other Monthly Expenses table, enter the names of expense items into the list, and then enter expected monthly expense amounts for each projected month.

Lastly, enter expected startup costs for your Grocery Store Financial Model.

3. Startup Costs

By all means, the usefulness of the model’s outcomes will depend on the degree of accuracy in estimating startup costs. However, as we already said, it is rather dangerous to underestimate them.

There is also an Account field there, you can indicate whether respective startup expenditure will create an asset (for example, property, equipment, software, or patents), or be accounted for as an expense. However, if you do not need to produce pro forma financial statements for your business plan, you can ignore this column altogether.

Startup-Cost-Grocery-Shop-Someka-S09

Lastly, if your purpose is simply to get a snapshot of projected revenues and costs, you can jump right to the reports. However, if you’ll need a more comprehensive financial picture, go to the Miscellaneous section first.

4. Miscellaneous

Here you can add figures related to financing and fixed assets of your grocery store financial model.

In the Debt & Equity Financing table, enter:

  • Equity contribution – money injected into the business by owners (co-investors);
  • Equity repayments – amounts of initial investments withdrawn by owners (co-investors) at par, as well as payouts to the owners (co-investors) expected to be made out of net profit;
  • Debt Issuance – amounts of loans received from a bank or other lender;
  • Debt Repayment – payments in order to repay the principal amount of the loan;
  • Interest Paid – payments for the use of the loan.

Grocery-Financial-Model-Someka-S10

In general, fixed assets are those you expect to be in use for more than one year. They include tangible assets, also known as property, plant and equipment, and intangible assets (software, patents and trademarks).

So, enter the amounts you are going to spend for fixed assets, other than startup costs, into the Fixed Assets table. For the sake of simplicity, we do not calculate depreciation and amortization; however, you can add them manually in this table.

      Our Excel Templates are designed specifically for Windows. However, most of them are also compatible with Mac – but first, please check the product description for more details. To use these templates, you’ll need Microsoft Excel for Mac, as Apple’s Numbers isn’t supported.
