2 Understand the difference between cash flow and profit Understand and explain the principle and application of benchmarking using worked examples

3  Recap on last week  Cash and Profit  Benchmarking  Assessment

4 Education for children A decent standard of living Provision for retirement A healthy business to pass on to next generation Top-class herd, flock, crop

5  Last Week: ◦ Be able to calculate gross margins and net margins for an enterprise ◦ Know how to categorise receipts and expenditure for an enterprise  Accounts – Planning and Control  Enterprises  Costs (Variable, Fixed, Capital)  Depreciation  Margins (Gross and Net)  Cash – Can you pay your bills this month?  Profit – can you fund private drawings and business growth?

6 Cash Flow Budget (Liquidity) Planning “A forecast of money going into and out of a business over a specific period of time” Control Compare actual payments with expected. “Can you pay your bills this month?”

7 Overdraft not being repaid

10  Not reinvesting in the operation or selling assets  Low drawings ◦ Off farm income reducing the need for drawings to fund family expenses  Borrowing money  Not paying bills

11  An expanding business with increasing assets, but few sales  High withdrawals for family living  Repaying debt rapidly  Buying next year’s inputs from this years cash ◦ e.g. prepay on fertiliser)  Increase in accounts receivable ◦ have not been paid yet for product sold

12  Vital to plan and review bank borrowing  A means of adjusting the timing of payments and income  Shows if it is worth while (or possible) growing or continuing the current farm business Poor Cash flow & ProfitPartial Budget

13  How healthy is the farm business?  What information do you use to make management decisions?  Which enterprises are making money?  BENCHMARKING

15 “Helps farmers to assess their own business performance and compare their physical and financial results with other similar farms”

16  Collect data  Analyse data  Compare your results  Identify reasons for variation  *Formulate action plan*  *Implement plan*

17

18  Output ◦ Sales ◦ Value of product grown but not yet sold  Variable costs ◦ Costs associated with production that vary depending on scale  Gross margin – (Output – Variable costs) ◦ this will show how efficient you are with raw materials needed for the enterprise e.g., Seed, fertiliser, Sprays and other variable costs  Fixed Costs – costs that do not vary with scale ◦ looking at the whole business. What is needed after variable costs. The biggest variation between farms is the amount spend on fixed costs  Labour, conacre and finance ◦ Value of your own labour, rent for land and interest and capital loan repayments  Gross Margin – (Fixed costs + LCF) = Profit!!!

19 A. Enterprise reports on Physical performance B. Enterprise reports on Financial performance

20  Group Exercise – Enterprise specific  4 or 5 key performance indicators for  Physical performance  Financial Performance  Include some figures about what good performance might be

21 Physical performance is a measure of the quantity and quality of what you produce on your farm. These will differ between enterprises, e.g.: ◦ Grain/Crop yield Tonnes/Ha ◦ Straw Yield (T/Ha) ◦ Tonnes / Labour Unit ◦ Seed Rate Kg/Ha ◦ Fertiliser Rate Kg/Ha

22 B.Financial performance is a measure of how much money it took to achieve the quantity and quality of product sold from the farm. This financial performance will be broken down into output, variable costs, overhead costs and capital costs. This will then produce various performance indicators e.g.: ◦ Gross Margin/Ha ◦ Gross Margin / Tonne ◦ Total overhead costs ◦ Overhead costs/Ha ◦ Total cost of production/Tonne ◦ Machinery Costs as a % of Total Costs These are only a few examples. On the next few slides we will study a real benchmark report and see the different physical and financial performance indicators
