OVERVIEW
Excel is a powerful and flexible tool that can be
used to build complex models to analyze the
effects of a firms financial decisions. Further, a
properly built Excel model has the capability to
ask a variety of what if questions.

What if expenses are


greater than expected,
how does this affect our
bottom line?

Finally, Excel has a large number of analytical tools that can


be used to investigate a variety of financial and business
opportunities. Business and technical professionals are
often called upon to analyze the effects of financially based
decisions, often without a formal financial background in
Excel model building or the use of Excel as financial decision
making tool. This in-depth and practical three-day course
will focus on financial model building and analysis using
Excel.

By the conclusion of the course:

Participants will be able to build models to generate pro forma (projected)


financial statements and evaluate proposed capital investment projects.
Delegates will also be able to use Excel to perform optimization and write simple
user-defined functions.
This training will benefit your organization by giving participants greater
knowledge on the use of Excel as a financial decision making tool.
This course qualifies for continuing education credit for licensed Professional
Engineers and also Professio
Profession Development Hours for other disciplines.

Who Should Attend?


Wh

Anyone wanting to upgrade his or her Excel skills.


Individuals being transferred from non-financial
areas to financial areas.
Individuals without a finance background or who
have little Excel experience.

Participants should bring thei


their laptops to all 3 days of the course. This course will
focus on the use of Excel as a financial decision making tool. We will use Excel to
build a variety of models.

Your organization will benefit from employees attending this course


because they will learn to use Excel to:
P Create projected financial statements, allowing them to see the effects
of financial decisions on firm performance,
P Build models to evaluate proposed capital investments,
P Perform what if analysis to see what happens when things dont go as planned,
P Find optimal solutions to problems,
P Use a variety of analysis tools in Excel

analyze data. We will also introduce VBA (Visual Basic
for Applications) and create user-defined functions in
Excel.
