Overview

  • The financial information you need to ‘run’ a company

  • Cost of Labour
  • Overheads
  • Budgeting
  • Cashflows

Cost of Labour

  • Costs
    • Wage/Salary
    • Tax — (UK National Insurance Contribution) — usually proportional to salary level e.g. 10%, can be much higher e.g. 60% in some countries
    • Superannuation
    • Medical insurance
    • Total is the payroll cost (In Edinburgh University this is 1.21 times the salary cost)
  • Effort
    • 260 weekdays in the year — Deduct public holidays + annual leave + Sick Leave + Unproductive time (at least 40-50 days per year in the UK)
    • Approx 210 days per year times 7 working hours per day = 1470 hours
  • So someone earning £30k at UoE costs (30K x 1.21)/1470 = £24.69 per hour

Budgets

  • Financial Plan of expected income and expenditure typically over a year
  • Typical sections are:
    • Overhead Costs: premises costs, management costs, advertising,...
    • Operating Costs: cost of materials, labour costs, depreciation on plant,...
    • Income (typically from sales): estimated sales of different items at different costs
  • Typically a budget should show a surplus over the year
  • Budgets are often ‘profiled’ into monthly expectations of spend and income
