P&L Forecast - Apple

In this exercise, you'll develop a real-world P&L projection for Apple, learning to forecast key financial elements including depreciation & amortization using the D&A schedule and modeling interest expense / income.A D&A schedule tracks how a company's assets lose value each year. It handles two main things:Physical Assets (PP&E) - Like buildings, machines, and equipment.Non-Physical Assets - Like patents or software.An interest expense and income schedule is a financial tool that tracks all interest-related transactions for a company.Interest Expense: The cost of borrowing money (e.g., loans, bonds).Interest Income: Earnings from investments or cash deposits (e.g., savings accounts). This schedule helps predict future interest costs and earnings, ensuring accurate P&L projections. For example, Apple would use it to forecast payments on debt or income from its cash reserves.
