FINPACK
Summary
FINPACK helps farm producers assess finances and make business decisions through cash-flow projections, enterprise profitability analysis and net-worth calculations. Its projections estimate peak operating loan needs and when payments can be made. It also evaluates income and expenses for each enterprise and tracks how net worth changes from year to year. Producers can use the analysis to consider the financial impact and feasibility of major changes before investing. FINPACK is an analysis tool, not a record-keeping system. Its interfaces can import cash transactions from Quicken, EasyFarm, PCMars and UltraFarm; PCMars can also provide balance-sheet data. CSV import and export are available for balance-sheet detail in specified asset categories. FINPACK+ for Producers includes an optional Guided Balance Sheet presented as a question-and-answer process. FINPACK costs $225 once for access through December 2027 and is Windows-only; FINPACK+ for Producers costs $545 once for online access through that date. The listed platforms include Windows, macOS and web, with access depending on the plan.
