The Dental Practice Financial Calculator - 2011

You will wonder how you ever ran your practice without it!
During challenging economic times, dental-practice owners need every advantage they can get.

Increase your personal compensation by eliminating the need to generate financial statements.  In addition to the income statement, balance sheet, and trial balance, the DPFC 2011 also creates a populated copy of your annual Form 1120S U.S. Income Tax Return for an S Corporation.

The model was designed to allow you to calculate the incremental impact to "personal compensation" for any "what-if" scenario you run. For example, the model lets you calculate the incremental personal compensation you could expect by increasing the service rate charged per hygienist visit by $10.

There are two methods you can populate this Excel-based model designed for dentistry.  You can use practice data from your Practice Management Software and related financial statements.  

Or you can use a second methodology that eliminates the needless and costly work to generate monthly and annual financial statements (whether they’re prepared by an accountant or using QuickBooks or other financial software).

The fact is, you don’t need to use traditional software to generate financial statements for a cash-basis dental practice.  In fact, that’s a waste of time and money because traditional financial statements aren’t much help in making business decisions or understanding the financial foundation of your practice.

With this simpler methodology to close your books you can eliminate the need for financial statements.  Best of all, your practice financial data will be right where it should be – in an Excel-based model designed for dentistry.  

Save time, money, and unnecessary frustration and stop paying your CPA or wasting time generating financial statements you don’t need.  The Dental Practice Financial Calculator (DPFC) lets non-financial professionals like you understand the transactions that flow through your business.  This unique method of “practice financial management accounting”  is more cost-efficient and effective than using statements from your accountant or using basic financial accounting software.  Learn How »»»
