With HortiBench there are no more financial estimates. HortiBench will calculate exactly what your nursery’s financial results will be. First of all the planned turnover. Every plant variety can be given a sales price. Not just one price, but a price which can vary for every week of the year. This way HortiBench reflects market prices. From the weekly plant availability and these varying prices HortiBench calculates your expected turnover. Next come the costs, material costs, labour costs and overheads. HortiBench calculates the material and labour costs from the requirements explained earlier. It can do this because you can enter in HortiBench the cost price of every unit of growing material and the cost price of the different labour categories. The last cost category, the overheads, are entered separately into HortiBench. You can enter here anything from heating, electricity and office staff to the management costs. All these figures are calculated and totalled by HortiBench into the Financial Results report. Not only the financial result but also the cash requirements can be read from this report. Your bank manager will certainly be impressed. To analyse the contribution a certain variety or specie had to the nursery result you can print the Profitability report. This report shows in chart form the cost build-up of the variety and its contribution towards the total financial result.
