Integrated Financial Health Dashboard
Three-Statement Monitoring Workbook with 16-Metric Health Score
Turn monthly P&L and balance-sheet entries into a fully linked three-statement view, a 16-metric financial health score, budget variances, credit risk, customer concentration, and covenant tests. Designed for CFOs, FP&A teams, finance leads and advisors.
This professional Excel workbook gives you a complete closed financial monitoring system in one file. Enter your monthly actuals, budget and prior-year figures once, and the model automatically produces:
• Linked Profit & Loss, Balance Sheet and Cash Flow statements
• A weighted 16-metric Financial Health Score across six categories
• Live covenant testing with headroom calculation
• Working capital ratios (DSO, DIO, DPO and cash conversion cycle)
• Customer concentration and receivables ageing analysis
• Budget vs actual variance analysis (month and year-to-date)
• An executive Dashboard ready for management presentation
Unlike simple dashboards that only display numbers, this is a true integrated financial model. Cash on the Balance Sheet is driven by the Cash Flow statement. Retained earnings roll forward from net income. Every ratio and the overall health score update the moment you change an input.
