Cashflow Scenario Calculator

This calculator is intended to illustrate scenarios with inventory and how the online business model potentially can grow over time. Keep in mind a marketplace store’s growth is dependent upon good standing in the platform and the available float for inventory.

Instructions

Step 1 - Decide Platform and Package

Select the platform and package tier being considered for Automated Retail Commerce to manage for you.

Step 2 - Scale Configuration

For Amazon, set your initial inventory amount (this is your starting float) and if you’d like to add more to it down the road, enter the amount under “Monthly Float” and select which month you’d like for that amount to be added in the timeline. This allows you to see the growth and potential of allocating more capital to the inventory for your eCommerce business.

For Walmart, set your monthly float with the monthly capital you would like to run the scenario on. You can add additional float down the road by adding it to “Secondary Monthly Float” and choosing when it will be allocated by selecting the month “Secondary Float Month Start”

Step 3 - P&L Forecasting

Once the appropriate information is added you’ll see two reports.

1. An inventory “Product Sales Cycle” scenario.

Once the appropriate information is added you’ll see two reports.

2. A 24 Month Forecast

This analysis demonstrates how your store could potentially grow with the assumption that product is selling within 30 days. Most inventory cycles sell within this time period but conservatively we say 30-90 days depending on the season, the volume of inventory purchased and your frequency of replenishments.

Step 4 - ROI Timeline*

With the above completed you’ll see your initial service fee ROI timeline per the forecasted scenario, along with the ROI timeline if you’re factoring in total capital allocated (service fee + inventory capital).

*Disclaimer: this is not a guarantee these timelines will be hit rather giving you visibility as to whats required to hit the desired revenue targets you’re looking to achieve with our eCommerce storefront managed service.
