Find models that represent the various aspects of a business, such as its operations, marketing, and sales. Financial modeling involves using historical financial data and other relevant information to create projections of future financial performance, such as revenue, expenses, profits, and cash flow. These analyses can help you plan for the future, make investment decisions, evaluate the impact of different business scenarios, understand how different factors affect overall performance, and identify areas where you can improve efficiency and profitability for yourself or your organization.
