Case Study
We analyze a loan request for an owner occupied commercial real estate loan and a working capital line of credit.  Attendees learn how an analyst/lender would obtain, process, and analyze financial information. 

We discover how to generate a set of key questions and determine the primary strengths and weaknesses of the borrower.

  • Return on Sales
  • Return on Equity
  • Return on Assets

  • Debt to Worth
  • Cash Flow to Current Maturities
  • Dividend/Distribution Payout

  • Average Age of Accounts Payable
  • Inventory Turnover
  • Total Asset Turnover

Cash Flow Analysis

Using the borrower's 1120S (S Corporation) federal tax return, Schedule L, M-1, M-2 and K-1, attendees construct a cash flow statement, evaluate projections and analyze the borrower's capacity to service debt.  Emphasis given to factors that could impact the global cash flow and debt service capacity.

 

Working Capital Analysis

Attendees learn how to estimate the borrower's working capital requirements.  We review how to evaluate and determine eligible accounts receivable & inventory for a borrowing base.  How to review accounts payable and overall vendor credit.
