The 2 key aspects that will be assessed in the Financial Plan are: whether students show a good understanding of how the financial plan links to the operational and marketing plan (i.e. numbers are not plucked out of thin air), and what the key assumptions and variables underpinning the FP are, and how they influence the numbers.

The plan should show long-term growth prospects through “scaling” the model and provide a calculation of the business valuation that could be used to attract investors.

My personal note

The business Idea I had is a JEWELRY business, we would sell high quality Cubic Zirconia (CZ) and also sell real diamonds. So basically the cubic zirconia would be for a target market of artists and wannabe gangsters and people that want to look like they have a luxury live but cannot afford the life and the real diamonds are clients that I’m can actually afford luxury and Love luxury, they have the financial means to actually spend on things like that.

It important to mention that because of the very unsustainable global economy, diamonds and gold silver are good investments people look into because it’s not like oil or stocks. These are things that would always be valuable for a very long time till the end of time.

Important things to note:

The name of the Jewelry business would be “BANABELLE”

Beaverbrooks is a company you should look into for this essay and list them as a competitor amongst other companies you find.

You would need to design a logo and include images and visuals as mentioned previously.
