Instructions Assumptions
This is an ROI calculator for retail companies that plan to open a new shop and want to calculate their
return on investment with given assumptions and breakeven sales volume.

This worksheet contains key assumptions that are needed to calculate current costs and sales in the NPV
plan worksheet.

Fill the data for the new shop for each year:
Rent area in square feet;
Rent price in $ per square foot;
% of annual sales that should be paid as a rent, if there is such a condition in your rent agreement,
otherwise put 0%.
For example, if annual sales are $1,000,000 and Rent, % is 7%, then $70,000 is the annual amount of
rent. If during the year you have paid less than $70, 000 then difference between this sum and actually
paid sum will be added to current costs in 13th, 25th and 36th months (row 21 Rental adjustment in
worksheet NPV plan).

Public utilities in $ per square foot;
Marketing fee in $ per square foot;
Number of employees;
Average gross salary;
Interest rate per annum;
Employment taxes and benefits, % of salaries;
Sales growth rate.
For example, if you assume that sales per month in Year 1 are $10,000 and sales growth rate in Year 2
is 5%, then sales for Year 2 in calculations will be $10,000 + 5% = $10,500.
Effective sales tax rate (federal+state taxes).

Type Product groups' names in cells G9:G14. These names will be automatically used in other
tables in the model.


After you finish filling in this worksheet please proceed to Scenarios.

Instructions Scenarios
This model facilitates evaluating investments in four different scenarios:
Min the worst-case scenario with the lowest sales per month,
Avg the base case scenario,
Max the optimistic scenario with the highest sales per month,
Break-Even corrects Avg scenario by multiplying Avg sales by a correction factor.
This scenario shows the minimal amount of sales needed to ensure the recoupment of
investments at a desired rate of return (NPV=0).
NB! Correction factor calculation steps are described in the worksheet NPV plan


Type the total amount of monthly sales, including sales tax, for each scenario in the
blue cells B9, B19 and B39. Dont mind about the names of the product groups yet.
The names of the product groups may be changed in cells G9-G14 at Assumptions
worksheet.
To provide for yearly seasonality, use row 14 on the Assumptions worksheet.
For each scenario in column B put the proportion of each product group in the total
sales.
It is possible to change scenarios in cell B54 in worksheet "NPV Plan".



After you finish filling in this worksheet please proceed to NPV plan.

This is the main worksheet, which contains table with the main calculations for the investment project. In this worksheet
such indicators as NPV and ROI are calculated:
PV (Present value) - The current worth of a future sum of money or stream of cash flows given a specified rate of return.
Future cash flows are discounted at the discount rate, and the higher the discount rate, the lower the present value of the
future cash flows.
NPV (Net Present Value) The difference between the present value of cash inflows and the present value of cash
outflows. NPV is used in capital budgeting to analyze the profitability of an investment or project. If NPV > 0, it is worth
investing in the project, and it will bring you at least the expected return. If NPV < 0, you should not invest in this
project.

ROI (Return on Investment) the percentage income that you get on your investment.


Type a start date in cell B65 and interest rate per annum (WACC or desired return on your investment) in cell
B63. The higher is interest rate per annum, the lower is NPV.
The model assumes that all investments are made in the 0th month, but the new shop starts working in the next (1
st
) month.
If you need to project for a longer period before the opening to make investments - you can order a customization of the
model by contacting us at info@cfotemplates.com.
Make a list of investments in appropriate table (rows 5-16) and put the appropriate amounts for each position.
The model foresees: 1) that at the end of the period guarantee deposit (row 14) will be returned and this sum
with the sign minus will appear in column AM; 2) that the initial inventory will be sold at the end of the period (at
purchase prices). As a result, this will increase sales in the last month (cell AM20). In row 16 Bank funding
changes in 0
th
month loan sum should be written with sign minus, but further loan payments should be written
with sign plus.
Current costs (rows 39-52): if data are written in a light blue color, it is possible to change them manually. Data
written in a dark blue color are calculated automatically, according to assumptions (see worksheet
"Assumptions");
In cells B30:35 show the markup for each product group the average percentage that is added to COGS in order
to create the sales price. You should take into account discounts that the shop may be giving to its clients and
adjust the markup downwards accordingly.
It is possible to change scenarios (which are described in worksheet Scenarios) in cell B64 by clicking on this
cell and choosing scenario from the validation list.
If the Break-even scenario is chosen, go to Solver worksheet.

Necessary funds - project cash balance. If it is negative then it shows the amount that should be invested by the
owners.


If you need to make more changes in assumptions or scenarios, proceed to appropriate

The model provides calculations for 3-year investment (36 months). If you need longer period, you

NPV of the project and necessary funds are illustrated graphically in worksheet NPV chart.
Necessary funds - project cash balance. If it is negative then it shows the amount that should be invested by the
owners.


If you need to make more changes in assumptions or scenarios, proceed to appropriate
worksheet.





The model provides calculations for 3-year investment (36 months). If you need longer period, you
can order a customization of the model by contacting us at info@cfotemplates.com.
