Financial Plan; NPV; IRR; Financial Ratio

One of the tourism industries that contributes to national development is the hotel industry. The hotel business can support other businesses, whether it is the right place to hold meetings or cooperation agreements, it can also be a place to increase human resource competency through training. The hotel is also a means for family gatherings to relieve fatigue, a place to stay for delegations from fellow countries at state meetings. The existence of a hotel must of course be accompanied by excellent service, including cleanliness and quality of towels and linen for its guests. The presence of a laundry business service that serves hotel needs is very much needed. This business plan offers a premium laundry service specifically for 4 and 5 star hotels. PT. Luxury Indah Jaya (Luxury Laundry) not only offers towel and linen laundry services but also provides towel and linen rental and guarantees the availability of hotel needs. Luxury Laundry has an IFE score of 2.90 and an EFE score of 3.02, where Luxury Laundry's competitive strength is in the medium category based on the results of the Five Forces Portes Model analysis. Luxury Laundry's financial plan is prepared by considering capital requirements and all costs in running a business company. This research aims to analyze Luxury Laundry's financial planning. The method used in this research is qualitative analysis.

 

 

INTRODUCTION

The tourism industry is one of the industries that contributes to the economy in Indonesia. The existence of the tourism sector is very necessary to bring in foreign exchange and state income. Even though previously the tourism industry had stopped its growth due to the Covid-19 pandemic that hit the world, now the tourism industry is able to develop again. This can be seen from the number of foreign tourists visiting in April 2022, which has increasingly shown a positive trend since the beginning of 2022. It was recorded that the number of foreign tourists visiting Jakarta was 36.06. This figure grew by 170.2% YoY from last year. Comparison (YoY) 2021-2022 foreign tourist visits to Jakarta increased by 683.5%.

In supporting the tourism industry, one factor that plays an important role is the hotel sector. Based on data from the Central Statistics Agency, there are no less than 212 hotels spread across Jabodetabek. In Jakarta itself, hotels are dominated by 4-star and 5-star hotels. These hotels really maintain the quality of comfort and cleanliness. With the number of 4 and 5 star hotels spread across the Greater Tangerang and DKI Jakarta areas and the lack of interest in establishing and managing in-house laundry by 4 and 5 star hotels, it is certain that there is a need for laundry services with premium service and guaranteed best quality in Tangerang. Raya and DKI Jakarta are still lacking. Moreover, driven by hotel occupancy levels following the easing of Community Activity Restrictions (PPKM) related to the Covid 19 pandemic, laundry business opportunities are very open and promising.

This very open business opportunity must of course be able to meet the standards required by the hotel industry. To meet these needs, of course laundry services must have very good planning. Good financial planning is very necessary to maintain business continuity. To achieve good finances, according to (Joo & Grable, 2004) companies must pay attention to spending plans, keep debt low and accumulate savings. Strategic thinking focuses on long-term goals which are very different from the current situation and there are many ways to achieve long-term goals (Liu et al., 2021). The purpose of financial planning is to maintain operational cash flow and financial efficiency to achieve the company's vision. The goal is that finance can provide support to the marketing department, operational department and human capital department in carrying out the goals and targets that have been planned for the future.

This research aims to analyze the financial planning of Luxury Laundry with several measurements such as projected financial position and profit and loss, Return On Investment (ROI), Net Present Value (NPV), Internal Rate of Return (IRR), and Payback Period (PP) , liquidity ratio, solvency ratio, profitability ratio and activity ratio.

 

METHOD

The method used in this research is qualitative analysis. Qualitative analysis is analyzing data, written descriptions and oral descriptions, then connecting them with data, written descriptions and other oral descriptions to obtain clarity of truth, and vice versa, to obtain new perspectives or to strengthen existing perspectives (Basias, N., & Pollalis, 2018). The qualitative research workflow begins by asking questions, then formulating a hypothesis, preparing data collection tools, then carrying out data collection activities, then carrying out data analysis, and finally writing research conclusions (Rijali, 2019). In qualitative research, conceptualization, classification, and description are developed based on "events" obtained during field activities. This research is included in Descriptive research because this research aims to describe one incident, namely financial planning at Luxury Laundry. To analyze the company's sustainability better in the future, a good financial plan is also needed. So this research focuses on discussing matters related to financial planning at Luxury Laundry, namely (1) Financial Report Projections (2) investment feasibility analysis (3) Liquidity Ratios (4) Solvency Ratios (5) Profitability Ratios (6) Ratios Activity.
