Financial Sustainability
Team C’s presentation will review 5 financial areas within ABC Co. We will first define financial sustainability; address calculating cost, revenue, and profit, the rule of 72, calculating interest, and compound interest. We will use math concepts and rationale businesses and how companies can use our math concepts and rationale to achieve financial sustainability.
What is Financial Sustainability?

* Define it! * Is it a buzzword? * What does it mean to an individual? * What does it mean to an organization? * Is it important for a business owner to understand financial sustainability in both personal and professional areas?

Financial sustainability has become something of a buzzword in the non-government sector (NGO) sector. We believe that it’s an important financing strategy to help companies decide what opportunities and activities the organization should pursue once they develop a financial strategy (Mango Guide, n.d.). “The first step to helping an individual or business understand their financial health and well being is how we define financial sustainability? What is financial sustainability? To an entity, financial sustainability refers to the ability to sustain itself financially. To an individual, this means to financially live within one’s means” (University of Phoenix, 2010).

When our team met with ABC Co. we gave first gave the chief financial officer and his team the financial sustainability definition for both an individual and an entity. Why did we give them both definitions? Because we believe that if you can’t manage your individual finances you probably won’t effectively manage your business finances either.
