Have Any Question?
What is Financial Planning & Analysis?
Financial Planning & Analysis, or FP&A, is a financial management function focused on planning, budgeting, forecasting, financial analysis, performance management, and decision support.
What does an FP&A team do?
An FP&A function typically supports budgeting, forecasting, financial modeling, variance analysis, profitability analysis, management reporting, KPI analysis, and strategic financial planning.
What is the difference between FP&A and accounting?
Accounting primarily records and reports historical financial activity. FP&A focuses more heavily on analyzing performance, forecasting future results, planning resources, and supporting management decisions.
Is FP&A only for large companies?
No. Growing and smaller businesses can also benefit from FP&A when financial complexity increases and management needs better planning and financial visibility.
What is financial forecasting?
Financial forecasting involves estimating future financial performance using historical information, current performance, business assumptions, and other relevant information.
Can Assurance360 help with budgeting?
Yes. Budget development, budget analysis, and budget-versus-actual reporting can be included in FP&A services.
Do you provide FP&A services to CPA firms
Yes. Assurance360 can provide defined FP&A services as an extension of a CPA or accounting firm’s capabilities.
Can you help with financial modeling?
Yes. Financial models can be developed for growth planning, hiring, expansion, investment, pricing, fundraising, and other business scenarios.
What is variance analysis?
Variance analysis compares actual results against a reference point such as a budget, forecast, prior period, or target to understand the difference and potential reasons behind it.
