[Verse 1]
When the market shifts and numbers change
Your perfect plan might rearrange
What happens when the costs go up
Or sales fall down, will you give up?
Sensitivity shows the way
Test each variable today
One percent change in selling price
Could make or break your sacrifice
[Chorus]
Sensitivity analysis, what if this, what if that
Change one input, see the impact, where your profits might be at
Scenario planning takes you further, best case, worst case, most likely too
Test your assumptions, find the truth, that's what smart accountants do
S-A-S-P, Sensitivity And Scenario Planning
Help you see uncertainty, keep your business understanding
[Verse 2]
Start with base case numbers clean
Then tornado charts will show the scene
Which variables matter most
Fixed costs, volumes, what's your cost?
Interest rates and foreign exchange
Labor costs within their range
Each input gets its moment tested
See where risk might be nested
[Chorus]
Sensitivity analysis, what if this, what if that
Change one input, see the impact, where your profits might be at
Scenario planning takes you further, best case, worst case, most likely too
Test your assumptions, find the truth, that's what smart accountants do
S-A-S-P, Sensitivity And Scenario Planning
Help you see uncertainty, keep your business understanding
[Bridge]
Build three worlds with different stories
Pessimistic, optimistic glories
Realistic in between
Plan for what you haven't seen
Monte Carlo simulations
Random variable creations
Thousand runs will show the spread
Of outcomes lying just ahead
[Verse 3]
Break-even points will shift around
When key assumptions hit the ground
Margin of safety gets revealed
When uncertainty is peeled
Dashboard warnings, trigger points
When the analysis disappoints
Contingency plans standing by
For when the numbers don't comply
[Chorus]
Sensitivity analysis, what if this, what if that
Change one input, see the impact, where your profits might be at
Scenario planning takes you further, best case, worst case, most likely too
Test your assumptions, find the truth, that's what smart accountants do
S-A-S-P, Sensitivity And Scenario Planning
Help you see uncertainty, keep your business understanding
[Outro]
When the future's not so clear
These tools will calm your fear
Test and plan, understand the range
Prepare your business for the change
