Apple Inc (NASDAQ:AAPL) Earnings Model
|
NOTE: This model needs an update to include the earnings release on 4/30/2019. We will update the model and repost it here soon...stay tune!
Model Methodology: This model uses iPhone, iPad, Mac, services, and Wearables, Home & Accessories growth rates to project future revenue. We forecast gross margin to estimate cost of sales, and use ratios to project the operating expense line items. Historic averages are used to estimate Other Income, and an effective tax rate is applied to the future projected income to forecast the income tax expense. We use operating ratios to project the primary accounts on the Balance Sheet, and Balance Sheet changes and earnings estimates to forecast the Cash Flow Statement. The model is calibrated to meet management's guidance and consensus estimates as a "base-case" scenario. You can enter your own assumptions into the blue cells to form your own earnings forecast.
Basic Version: Includes 4 quarters of forecasts, Income Statement and Segment details. Premium Version: Includes ~5 years of forecasts, Income Statement, Segment details, Balance Sheet, Cash Flow, and target share valuation. Date of last Model Update: 4/10/2019 Model Developer: John Moschella, CFA, CPA |

This book demonstrates step-by-step how to create a financial model, similar to the models maintained by Wall Street equity research analysts. The accompanying spreadsheets demonstrate the key concepts and can be used as templates to create an earnings model for nearly any company. Readers without prior financial analysis experience will gain a fundamental understanding of exactly what modeling entails, and will learn how to create a basic form of an earnings model. Advanced readers will be introduced to more complex topics such as linking the financial statements, future period calibration, and incorporating macroeconomic variables into discounted valuation analysis through the equity risk premium and application of the capital asset pricing model.
