Tomas would like to know whether his new business will be profitable, how much financing he will need, and whether he will have adequate cash flows. Tomas can get this information from:

Answer 1

Answer:

Pro forma financial statements

Explanation:

The term pro forma financial statements refers to a type of financial statement which estimates future financial results. It doesn't follow the GAAP, instead it is designed to focus on specific figures about a company's expected earnings. Although pro forma financials are only expected financial statements, it is still illegal to mislead investors using them.

By preparing a pro forma financial statement, Tomas will be able to estimate if his new business will be profitable or not, approximately how much financing he will need and estimate the future cash flows of his project.
