The gross profit margin of the company illustrates how much the revenue of the company has
been effectively lower than the expenses. There is the component in determining the gross profit
–
Revenue : The revenue of the company can be stable if the negative amount can be replaced by
the volume of the product/services and then increase in the workshops income or stabilize the
income from the workshops, e-books, consulting fees and executive search services, if these
figures are been put into the picture then the figures for the company can up and then can be
extracted to best potential.
The lower the variable cost of the company, there is higher the probability to increase the profits
for the company. The variable costs of the company will then show the cost of various expenses
and all other indirect costs which are related to the management services. So, if the indirect cost
is lower then the net profit can be at higher side.
Development of a budget
The budget of the company show the management services provided by the grow management
consultants. The budget development is very essential for the company in the evaluation of the
financial report of the company. the forecasting of the expenditure of the year 2018 already done
by the company and with the help of the expenses occurred. For the next year, the projected
capital budget ensure the expenditure plan. The services provided to the customers need indirect
cost in their implementation and by doing so the budget reflect the future position of the
company. the capital budget for the grow management consultant is shown the purchases of
materials in the services of the company, the semi-variable factors and the target generation of
the sales of the company directly linked to the estimation. To do this and the fixed cost like rent,
insurance, and property, consulting fees, accounting fees and the advertisement expenses.
Advertisement expenses are the most important while making an expenditure plan. It helps in the
generation of more income as advertisement directly linked to the income. More expenditure is
done on investment more benefit a company acquired.
Conclusion and Recommendation:
As per the financial data is a concern the company has a good gross profit ratio is not up to the
mark and so the company needs to work out on the current ratio and see the potential where the
company can find the ways to improve their short term loans and arrangement of the working

capital will work out. the interaction to the company shares is very less. But the area where the
company can boost the share price is the increase in sales and reduction of the fixed cost. This
will insight the shareholders to put more money into the business and get a good return from it.
The main growth is the profit where the sights of the investors are always there and so the
company growth is pushing the shareholders to invest more to the business. The shares of the
company has two different aspects i.e. reserves and the profit segments, the profit segments are
been increasing as the potential is increasing and the share retention has helped the company to
get return to the existing shareholders initially and then later to the new persons who are
stakeholders i.e. the financial institutions whose value can be reduced as the debt ratio has gone
down in previous years and so that can still go down
So, for the project is concern, if the company want to put the money into the project the company
should identify the project length and then the plans can be chosen from the above options, but
the short term loan will not be viable for a long term projects and it will also affect the working
capital of the company. So, that needs to be considered when the project finance option is to be
chosen.
