These models are designed to be the perfect financial tool for business owners to use to make decisions for their company.

General Assumptions
Starts with basic model questions on the start date of the model, tax rate assumption, working capital assumptions, and funding assumptions, including owners/partner capital or investment into the business.
Revenue Assumptions
Revenue assumptions are the anticipated factors that drive a company’s income generation over a specific period. These assumptions form the basis for financial projections and are crucial for planning and decision-making. In our model we have included detailed inputs on No. of Hours of Operation Per Day at the Laundromat, Hours Capacity Available Per Month Per Machine (hours), Washer and Dryer Cycle duration (minutes), Washer and Dryer Cycle Capacity Per Month Per Machine (# of cycles). We have also included individual Washer (Small, Medium, Large) metrics for 12 machines (you have the ability to add more if needed) where you can input the # of cycles sold, the price per cycle, see what the machine’s revenue Is, what its utilization rate % is; and individual Dryers (Medium, Large, Extra Large) metrics for 12 machines (you have the ability to add more if needed) where you can input the # of cycles sold, the price per cycle, see what the machines revenue is and what its utilization rate % is.
We have also included inputs for a Revenue Full Service offering (Wash, Dry, Fold) with inputs to track # of customers, growth %, and price per load charged, as well as Other Income with inputs on Other Items sold (Detergent, Laundry Bags, Other accessories sold).
Operating Expenses Assumptions
Operating expense assumptions are typically based on historical data, industry benchmarks, market trends, and management’s judgment. They are crucial for estimating the business’s total cost and determining profitability. Like revenue assumptions, it’s important to regularly review and adjust operating expense assumptions to reflect changes in the business environment and ensure the accuracy of financial forecasts. In our model we have included detailed inputs on Laundromat Staff Costs (Operations Manager, Advertising Team, Other), Typical Laundromat related Operational Expenditure items (Rent, Water, Electricity, Gas, Cleaning, Credit Card Fees, Machine Maintenance Costs, Insurance, Council Rates, Advertising, however, you can add any other expenses you think may be relevant to your business in this sheet.
Capex Assumptions
Capital expenditure (Capex) assumptions refer to the anticipated investments a company plans to make in long-term assets, such as property, plant, equipment, and technology, over a specific period. These assumptions are crucial for financial planning, budgeting, and forecasting, as they impact the company’s cash flow, profitability, and growth prospects. We have included a Fixed asset cost assumption schedule here for the main items likely to be on a company’s capex sheet and also a Use Of Funds assumption list with corresponding pie chart. We have included Capex costs for both Washers and Dryers (by the # of machines you have) and the average useful life of the machines.
Monthly Projections
We have broken down projections on a Month by Month basis when projecting Income Statement, Balance Sheet and Cash Flow Statement items. The monthly projections are provided over a 5 year time frame. This is particularly useful for businesses looking at month-on-month trends and insights in the business, which leads to better decision making and also better budgeting should there be a need to either raise more capital, pursue growth opportunities from excess capital, or pay down interest-bearing debt. Monthly projections also help a business ascertain what performance may be seasonal in nature when looking at growth projections on a month-over-previous-years-month basis.
Annual Projections
The model has Annualized Financial Projections of Income Statement, Balance Sheet and Cash Flow Statement over a 5 year time frame. Annual projections provide an excellent overview of expected revenues, expenses, profits, cash flow, and other key financial metrics for the upcoming year.
