Common questions about our training courses
Financial statements are covered in terms of their function, structure, and what they reveal about business performance and financial strength. The course focuses on how to read and interpret financial results rather than how to prepare them, giving technical professionals the ability to engage with financial information in project, commercial, and investment contexts. The vital difference between profit and cash flow is addressed as a key practical distinction.
Cost behaviour, cost-volume-profit analysis, gross margin, break-even, and cost classification are all covered alongside a strategic approach to cost reduction. Cost and value approaches to pricing are examined, and delegates build an Excel pricing model during the course. This gives technical professionals a practical command of how costs and pricing decisions affect financial performance.
DCF analysis is covered as a step-by-step applied methodology, addressing how future cash flows are identified, discounted, and used to evaluate project value. Delegates build an Excel investment appraisal model during the course rather than working through theoretical examples. This gives them a replicable tool they can apply directly to the investment proposals they work on.
The course covers a systematic approach to financial analysis, including performance analysis, asset management efficiency, capital structure and risk interpretation, and key cash flow ratios. An investor's perspective on financial appraisal is also addressed, giving delegates a broader view of how financial decisions are evaluated beyond the immediate project context. These techniques are taught as applied tools rather than theoretical frameworks.
Revenue forecasting using time series analysis in Excel, project cost estimation methods, and the identification of relevant project cash flows are all covered. Excel statistical analysis tools are introduced alongside the principles of good financial modelling. Delegates leave with a structured approach to building forecasts that support credible project investment cases.
Sources and cost of business funding, funding strategy, optimal capital structure, and the bank's perspective on project finance are all addressed. Delegates gain a working understanding of how projects are funded, what lenders and investors look for, and how funding choices affect project economics. This is directly relevant for those involved in preparing or presenting investment proposals for internal or external approval.
