Pro forma balance sheet in LBO model test?
If the exam is say about an hour, how necessary is the pro forma balance sheet with the balance sheet checking out at the end you think? If this isn't built out, would this ding you?

Depends. I just went through on-cycle recruiting, and some places required full three statement in 1 hour, while others didn’t specify (in which case I just did working cap schedule, but ignored full balance sheet)
in that case, assuming you make the income statement, CFS and debt schedule? For the balance sheet, instead of building out a full balance sheet did you just project out NWC and change in NWC for this part before linking it to the CFS? Assuming it was just NWC as a % of revenue unless otherwise stated? If so what is a safe % to assume?
