Module 7 Lesson 1: Forecasting the Revenues of the Business

Activity 1: (Handwritten or printed/ yellow pad or bond paper)

Have you tried estimating the time that it takes you to travel from home to school? Try to
fill in the necessary information in the table below. Write your estimate in Estimated Time
column, after arriving to school fill in the Actual Time in the blank provided.

Estimated Time Actual Time

1. ____________ __________
2. ____________ __________
3. ____________ __________

How close were your estimates compared to the actual time? Did your estimate fall short
compared to the actual time? What do you think were the factors that might have
contributed in getting you early to school? List the reasons in the blank.

_______________________________________________________________
_______________________________________________________________
On the other hand, does your actual time exceed your estimates? What do you think were
the factors that might have contributed in arriving later than your estimated time? List the
reasons in the blank.

Making informed estimates requires careful considerations on several factors that might
affect the outcome of your travel such as, distance from home to school, the means of
transportation you will be taking, the number of passengers and etc. Traveling from home
to school on a regular basis had helped you arrive with an estimate that was very close to
the actual time of arrival.

Considering these factors is essential in making informed estimates by the entrepreneur.


Since the business he/she is venturing hasn’t started yet, it is important that these factors
affecting forecasting will be determined to better help him/her in making the best decisions
for the business.

1 CO_Q2_Entrepreneurship SHS
Module 7
For the entrepreneur, after realizing the potential for profit of his/her business
concept, the next step is to estimate how much the revenue is on a daily, monthly and
annual basis. Before going to forecasting and projecting the revenues of the business, let
us determine first what revenue is.

Revenue is a result when sales exceed the cost to produce goods or render the
services. Revenue is recognized when earned, whether paid in cash or charged to the
account of the customer. Other terms related to revenue include Sales and Service
Income. Sales is used especially when the nature of business is merchandising or
retailing, while Service Income is used to record revenues earned by rendering services.
Now that you know about revenue, Let us determine the factors to consider in
forecasting revenues.
You have just learned about what revenue is. This time, let us study the various
factors to consider in forecasting revenues.
The entrepreneur would want his/her forecasting for his/her small business as
credible and as accurate as possible to avoid complications in the future. In estimating
potential revenue for the business, factors such as external and internal factors that can
affect the business must be considered. These factors should serve as basis in forecasting
revenues of the business. These factors are:
1. The economic condition of the country. When the economy grows, its growth is
experienced by the consumers. Consumers are more likely to buy products and
services. The entrepreneur must be able to identify the overall health of the
economy in order to make informed estimates. A healthy economy makes good
business.
2. The competing businesses or competitors. Observe how your competitors are doing
business. Since you share the same market with them, information about the
number of products sold daily or the number of items they are carrying will give
you idea as to how much your competitors are selling. This will give you a
benchmark on how much products you need to stock your business in order to
cope with the customer demand. This will also give you a better estimate as to how
much market share is available for you to exploit.
3. Changes happening in the community. Changes happening in the environment such
as customer demographic, lifestyle and buying behavior give the entrepreneur a
better perspective about the market. The entrepreneur should always be keen in

2 CO_Q2_Entrepreneurship SHS
Module 7
adapting to these changes in order to sustain the business. For example, teens
usually follow popular celebrities especially in their fashion trend. Being able to
anticipate these changes allows the entrepreneur to maximize sales potential.
4. The internal aspect of the business. Another factor that affects forecasting revenues
in the business itself. Plant capacity often plays a very important role in
forecasting. For example, a “Puto” maker can only make 250 pieces of puto every
day; therefore, he can only sell as much as 250 pieces of puto every day. The
number of products manufactured and made depends on the capacity of the plant,
availability of raw materials and labour and also the number of salespersons
determine the amount of revenues earned by an entrepreneur.
Now that all factors affecting forecasting revenues are identified, you can
now calculate and project potential revenues of your chosen business. The table
below shows an example of revenues forecasted in a Ready to Wear Online Selling
Business.
Example: Ms. Fashion Nista recently opened her dream business and
named it Fit Mo’to Ready to Wear Online Selling Business, an online selling
business which specializes in ready to wear clothes for teens and young adults.
Based on her initial interview among several online selling businesses, the average
number of t-shirts sold every day is 10 and the average pair of fashion jeans sold
every day is 6. From the information gathered, Ms. Nista projected the revenue of
her Fit Mo’to Ready to Wear Online Selling Business.
She gets her supplies at a local RTW dealer in the city. The cost per piece
of t-shirt is 90 pesos, while a pair of fashion jeans costs 230 pesos per piece. She
then adds a 50 percent mark up to every piece of RTW sold.
Mark up refers to the amount added to the cost to come up with the
selling price. The formula for getting the mark up price is as follows:

Mark Up Price = ( Cost x Desired Mark Up Percentage)


Mark Up for T-shirt = ( 90.00 x .50)
Mark Up for T-shirt = 45.00

In calculating for the selling price, the formula is as follows:


Selling Price = Cost + Mark Up
Selling Price = 90.00 + 45.00
3 CO_Q2_Entrepreneurship SHS
Module 7
Selling Price for T-shirt = 135.00

Table 1 shows the projected daily revenue of Ms. Nista’s online selling
business. Computations regarding the projected revenue is presented in letters in
upper case A, B, C, D, and E.

Total 320.00 160.00 480.00 16 3,420.00

Table 2 shows the projected monthly and yearly revenue of Ms. Nista’s online
selling business. Computations about the monthly revenue is calculated by
multipying daily revenues by 30 days ( 1 month).

For example, in Table 1 the daily revenue is 3,420.00. To get the monthly
projected revenue it is multiplied by 30 days. Therefore,

Projected Monthly Revenue = Projected Daily Revenue x 30 days

Projected Monthly Revenue = 3,420.00 x 30

Projected Monthly Revenue = 102,600.00

On the other hand, the projected yearly revenue is computed by


multiplying the monthly revenue by 12 months. The calculation for projected yearly
revenue is as follows.

4 CO_Q2_Entrepreneurship SHS
Module 7
Projected Yearly Revenue = Projected Daily Revenue x 365 days

Projected Yearly Revenue = 3,420.00 x 365

Table 3 shows the projected monthly revenues covering one year of operation. The table
shows an average increase of revenue every month by 5 percent except June, July to
October and December. While the month of June has twice the increase from the
previous month by 10 percent, let us consider that months covering July to October are
considered to be Off-Peak months, therefore sales from July to October are expected to
decrease. It is assumed that there is no increase in revenue from July to August, while
from August to October the decrease in revenues is 5 percent from previous month.
Since revenues from sales of RTW’s are considered to be seasonal, it assumed that there
is a 10 percent increase in revenue from November to December.

Computation for assumed increase of revenue on specific months is as


follows:

Projected Monthly Revenue (Increase) = Revenue (January) x 5 % Increase

Projected Monthly Revenue (Increase) = 102,600.00 x .05

5 CO_Q2_Entrepreneurship SHS
Module 7
Projected Monthly Revenue (Increase) = 5,130.00

Projected Revenue for February = Revenue (January) + Amount of Increase

Projected Revenue for February = 102,600.00 + 5,130.00

Projected Revenue for February = 107,730.00


10
On the other hand, decrease in revenue is computed as follows:

Projected Monthly Revenue (Decrease) = Revenue (August) x 5 % Increase

Projected Monthly Revenue (Increase) = 144,041.14 x .05

Projected Monthly Revenue (Increase) = 7,202.06

Projected Revenue for September = Revenue (August) - Amount of Decrease

Projected Revenue for September = 144,041.14 – 7,202.06

Projected Revenue for September = 136,839.08

June Increase of 10% from previous revenue
July to August The same Revenue
September to October Loss of 5% from previous revenue
November Increase of 5% from previous revenue
December Increase of 10% from previous revenue
The numbers in the last table are very attractive, having revenues that are increasing in
numbers is a good sign that a business is growing. However, an entrepreneur should not
be overwhelmed by these revenues, as these are just gross revenue, this is not the final

Module 7
amount of profit or income an entrepreneur will get at the end of every period. Take note
that the amount of net revenue is still subjected to the expenses incurred in the operation
of business.

Activity 2: (Handwritten or printed/ yellow pad or bond paper)


After learning the calculations presented, you can now compute the projected revenue
by day, month and year based on your business concept.

Aling Minda is operating a buy and sell business, she sells broomsticks (walis
tingting) in her stall at a local market. She gets her broomsticks from a local supplier for
25 pesos each. She then adds 50 percent mark-up on each broomstick. Every day, aling
Minda can sell 30 broomsticks.

Use the template below and fill in the necessary figures based on the scenario. Remember
to use the factors to consider in projecting revenues and refer to Tables 1, 2 and 3 as your
guide.

costumer preferences and the like. This will help achieve the best educated
estimate of your revenues

It is understood that you now know how to calculate mark-up and selling
price of an item or merchandise. Let us try the following situations to see if
you have understood the concepts.

1. Kyle, a local entrepreneur is planning to sell 10 liter-bottled waters in his


sari-sari store. A local water purifying business in the city sells their 10-
liter bottled water for 20 pesos each. Kyle wants to add 25 per cent mark
up from the original cost of 10 liters bottled water. Calculate how much
mark-up Kyle should add. Determine how much should be the selling
price for 10-liter bottled water.
2. Zoei sells fruits in a local fruit stand in the market. She gets her fruits
from a local wholesaler in the city. Zoei charges 40 per cent mark up for
every kilo of watermelon she gets. Suppose the cost per kilo of watermelon
is 25, how much is the selling price for one kilo of watermelon?

Activity 4: (Handwritten or printed/ yellow pad or bond paper)

1. Now that you have learned how to forecast revenues of the business,
investigate how these concepts are being applied by existing businesses in
your community. Using the table below, fill in the necessary information

Activity 5: (Handwritten or printed/ yellow pad or bond paper)

Have you tried recording the amount of money you spend from your daily allowance?
You might be experiencing difficulties in making your allowance meet your daily
needs as a student. Try to fill in the information below to come up with a breakdown
of your daily allowance.

Breakdown on Daily Allowance


Name: ______________________

Daily Allowance: Ᵽ __________


Less: Daily Expenses
Food Ᵽ_________
Fare _________
School Supplies _________
Recreation _________
Others ___________
Total Ᵽ ___________

Were you able to get a positive total? You may have spent your daily
allowance wisely and saved some of your daily allowance. Did you spend all your
allowance and ended up with a zero total? You may have spent your allowance
on expenses essential to your needs as a student.

Considering your expenses as a student, a business also has expenses


necessary for its upkeep. It would be best for any business to arrive with a
positive total; this would mean profit for the business. Careful consideration and
projection of these factors could mean success for the business.

You have just learned about what cost is. This time let us identify costs and
expenses incurred by the business.
Cost of Goods Sold / Cost of Sales refer to the amount of merchandise
or goods sold by the business for a given period of time. This is computed by
adding the beginning inventory to the Net Amount of Purchases to arrive with
Cost of Goods available for sale from which the Merchandise Inventory, end is
subtracted.
Merchandise Inventory, beginning refers to goods and merchandise at
the beginning of operation of business or accounting period.
Purchases refer to the merchandise or goods purchased.
Example: Cost to buy each pair of Jeans or t-shirt from a supplier.
Merchandise Inventory, end refers to goods and merchandise left
at the end of operation or accounting period.
Freight-in refers to amount paid to transport goods or
merchandise purchased from the supplier to the buyer. In this case, it is
the buyer who shoulders these cost.
In a merchandising business such as Fit Mo’to Ready to Wear
Online Selling Business, the formula to compute for costs of goods sold is
as follows:

Merchandise Inventory, beginning P XX.XX


Add: Net Cost of Purchases XX.XX
Freight-in XX.XX
Cost of Goods Available for Sale P XX.XX
Less: Merchandise Inventory, end XX.XX
Cost of Goods Sold P XX.XX

Let us calculate the cost of goods sold by Ms. Fashion Nista’s


online selling business for the month of January.

Table 4 shows the costs incurred during the first month of operation of Fit
Mo’to Ready to Wear Online Selling Business. Since Ms. Nista gets her
stocks from an online supplier, there is no need to order ahead and stock
more items. Therefore, there is no Merchandise Inventory, beginning as
well as Merchandise Inventory, end. Ready to wear items purchased
online from the supplier are then sold as soon as they arrived.

Cost of goods is calculated by simply multiplying the number of


items sold every month (300 t-shirts and 180 pairs of jeans) to its
corresponding cost per unit ( 90.00 pesos for every t-shirt and 230.00
pesos for every pair of jeans). A cost in transporting the goods from the
supplier to the seller (Ms. Nista) or Freightin is then added to Net Cost of
Purchases.

Total 320.00 480 68,400.00

Table 5 shows how freight-in is calculated.


It is assumed that at an average, Ms. Nista pays at least 250.00 pesos
for every 12 items delivered successfully by her supplier through a courier
service. Since her average order is 480 pieces every month, she pays:

480 pcs. / 12 pcs. x 250.00


40 x 250.00 = 10,000.00

Total 16 480 10,000.00

Let us now substitute the values from Table 4 and Table 5. Since
there is no Merchandise Inventory, beginning and end, let us add Cost of
Purchases and Freight-in to get the Cost of Goods Sold.

Merchandise Inventory, beginning P 00.00


Add: Net Cost of Purchases 68,400.00
Freight-in 10,000.00
Cost of Goods Available for Sale P
78,400.00
Less: Merchandise Inventory, end 00.00
Cost of Goods Sold P
78,400.00

Now that the cost of goods sold is now calculated, let us now
identify expenses that the business incurs in its operation. Operating
expenses such as Internet connection, and Utilities like electricity and
miscellaneous expense are important to keep the business running.
These expenses are part of the total costs incurred by the business in its
day-to-day operation and are paid every end of the month. The operating
expenses and assumed amounts are presented below:
Operating Expenses
Add: Internet Connection P 1,299.00
Utilities (Electricity) 800.00
Miscellaneous expense P 300.00
Total Operating Expense P 2,399.00

To calculate the total costs incurred by the business, cost of


goods sold and total operating expenses are then added. The calculation
for the costs incurred for the month of January is presented below:

Cost of Goods Sold P 78,400.00


Total Operating Expense P 2,399.00

projecting costs, may it be cost of goods sold or operating expenses. This will help
achieve the best educated estimates of your costs. The entrepreneur must clearly
identify costs incurred in the business operation. ________________ is the amount
of goods or merchandise sold during a period of time which incurs a large portion
of the total cost of a _________________ business. The cost of goods sold can be
calculated by simply multiplying _____________________ to its corresponding
________________. A cost in transporting the goods from the supplier to the seller
or __________________ is then added to Net Cost of Purchases.
