and manage all the performance of the business. It takes the concern over all the financial
objectives and items to evaluate the financial position and perfo5rmance of a business.
Financial management not only limited to the financial activities and recording of financial
transaction rather it takes the concern over all the factors which could directly or indirectly
affect the financial position and financial performance of the business (Ward, 2012).
The approach of financial management is followed by the financial department and

net profit, financial position of the business, the breakeven level of the company, sensitivity
analysis, vertical analysis, ratios etc. The main motto of the financial management to identify
and raise the funds and allocate those funds to the different project to earn more. Financial
management starts from finding the sources to raise the fund to earn more funds (Zabarankin,
Pavlikov and Uryasev, 2014). In the report, the case of Daniel has discussed where Daniel

Daniel is a France citizen who has retired from his job and got some amount. Now,
rather than being at home, he is planning to open a new venture of rose oil. One of his friends
lives in Bulgaria market and he has decided to import the rose oil from him. The rose oil will
be bought by him in Kgs and he planned to sell it in small packets of 2.5 grams in the France
market. The market feasibility shows that the demand of the product would be high and from
the 50 units in the first month, the sell would be improved to 800 small packets by the end of
the year. The sales of the company would be variable and Daniel has decided to order the
rose oil on the basis of the demand only. The market feasibility of the company states that the
total revenue of the company would be improved by the end of the year because of the
increment in the demand. With the increment in the sales, profitability level of the business
would also be improved. There are various fixed and variable expenses associated with the
business which would affect over the profits of the business. However the study over the
market and business depicts that the main fixed expenses of the business are rent, labour and
machineries of the business.
Daniel has also explained in the business brief that if required, Daniel could take the
loan from the bank. The maximum limit of the bank loan is € 75,000 which would be lent on
the rate of 8%. The total savings of Daniel are € 7,30,000 which will be invested in the
business to run the business smoothly and earn more money from the business. Daniel would
sell the rose oil from online portal as well as one of his friend has also approach to sell 20
bottles on monthly basis. In order to sell 20 bottles to friend, Daniel would require purchasing
new machinery and hiring assistant. The business would help the Daniel to meet his goals.
The main vision behind this business plan is to ensure that the financial performance of the
business become well as well as the business could serve better to its stakeholders. Below is
the list of the case facts and figures:

updated in the nature and hence, it cannot be considered as an asset.
8. The entire personalized bottle would be sold to Nina only.
9. Breakeven analysis study has been performed on Nina’s order and sells from online
portal differently because of the different cost involvement.
10. It has been assumed that the entire cash would be invested by Daniel in the business.

On the basis of the above analysis, assumptions, findings, the financial statement such
as profit and loss statement, monthly cash flow, annual cash flow, balance sheet, sensitivity
analysis, breakeven point etc have been prepared.
Break even analysis:
Financial activities include breakeven analysis. It is an approach which is used by the
financial managers or the top level management of the company to decide that at least how
units are required to be sold by the company in the market to reach over breakeven point
(Zabarankin, Pavlikov and Uryasev, 2014). Break even point is the level where business does
not suffer any loss as well as it does not get any profits (Lord, 2007). Breakeven analysis
makes it easiest for the financial mangers to identify that how much units are minimum sold
by them to sustain in the market and in order to earn a specific level of profit, how much units
are required to sell in the market. Breakeven analysis approach considers the sales per unit,
variable cost per unit and fixed cost of the business to identify the minimum number of units
which are required to be sold to sustain in the market and cover all the expenses of the
business (Weston and Brigham, 2015). This process does not only depict about the selling

On the basis of the above analysis, assumptions, findings, the financial statement such
as profit and loss statement, monthly cash flow, annual cash flow, balance sheet, sensitivity
analysis, breakeven point etc have been prepared.
Break even analysis:
Financial activities include breakeven analysis. It is an approach which is used by the
financial managers or the top level management of the company to decide that at least how
units are required to be sold by the company in the market to reach over breakeven point
(Zabarankin, Pavlikov and Uryasev, 2014). Break even point is the level where business does
not suffer any loss as well as it does not get any profits (Lord, 2007). Breakeven analysis
makes it easiest for the financial mangers to identify that how much units are minimum sold
by them to sustain in the market and in order to earn a specific level of profit, how much units
are required to sell in the market. Breakeven analysis approach considers the sales per unit,
variable cost per unit and fixed cost of the business to identify the minimum number of units
which are required to be sold to sustain in the market and cover all the expenses of the
business (Weston and Brigham, 2015). This process does not only depict about the selling

units rather it also tells the financial manager about the total sales amount which must be earn
by the company.
In Daniel’s venture, the main product of the company is rose oil bottles which would
be sold by him through online portal. Along with that, there is one more product also which
would be personalized for his friend. Through the calculations, it has been found that the
selling price of rose bottle which would be sold online is 45 and the personalized bottle
would be sold in € 35.00. The variable cost of each of the product is € 16.8 and € 16.8 equally
(Palicka, 2011). However, the fixed cost of both the product differs because of the labour and
machineries. Through the calculations, it has been measured that the contribution margin of
each of the product is € 28.2 and € 18.2. Hence, it has been found that the breakeven units of
the company are 121 units and 59 units. The breakeven sales amount of the company is €
5479.6 and € 2050.51. It depicts that from the initial months, company would be able to cover
the expenses and earn the profits. If the sales of the rose oil bottles would be lesser than the
calculated break even units then it will lead the business towards losses and affect the
performance of the company (Oliver and Schoff, 2017). The performance of the company by
the end of the year would be impressing and it would help the Daniel to make better profits.
The breakeven calculations of the company are as follows:
Cost-Volume-Profit Relationships - Breakeven

Selling price € 45.00 € 35.00
Variable costs € 16.80 € 16.80

business to manage the market level and improve the performance of the company.

bottle would be € 8400. Cost of goods sold of the business at the end of the year would be €
85592.47 (Radebaugh, Gray and Black, 2006). It leads to the further outcome that the gross
profit of the company at 31st Dec 2018 would be € 181,324.31 (Madura, 2014). Further, the

defines that the huge profit would be generated by the company. The available financial
resources of the company are also impressive. Along with that, the cash position of the
company is also better (Gapenski, 2008). All of these points conclude to the decision that the
business must be undertaken by Daniel.

business to grow further in the market. Along with the financial performance, the non

etc financial techniques define that the performance of the business would be great. In terms
