Investments

Investments are crucial for the growth and development of your business. They form the building blocks that bring your vision to life and elevate your company to new heights. Below is a short guide for including your investments in your business plan:

1. Category: Select the type of investment from the dropdown list. This may range from equipment to intangible assets. Choose the category that best fits your specific investment.

2. Description: Provide a brief description of the investment. This makes it easier to identify the investment later and understand its added value.

3. Purchase Date: Indicate when you expect to acquire the asset. This helps in planning your financial resources and determining the investment timeline.

4. Purchase Value: Enter the amount you expect to spend on the asset. This includes the purchase price and any additional costs such as installation and transportation.

5. Depreciation Months: Specify how long you plan to use the asset before it is fully depreciated. This may vary depending on the type of investment and its expected useful life.

6. Residual Value: Estimate the value of the asset at the end of its use. This helps calculate total depreciation and the long-term financial impact.

7. Depreciation Method: Choose the preferred depreciation method. If you select linear depreciation, the system will automatically calculate it based on purchase value, useful life, and residual value. You may also choose another method, such as variable depreciation, depending on applicable regulations or your business model.

8. Years: Enter annual depreciation. You can choose to depreciate linearly—spreading the cost evenly—or use a method that better aligns with your financial strategy.
