This brings me to my currently dilemma.  I am completely stuck on the financial planning section where they want me to create a projected balance sheet, a projected income statement and a projected cash flow statement.    I'm at a loss as to how deep of a dive to take here.  Do they want nitty-gritty specifics, like what will I likely spend in office supplies, and how much do I anticipate my office equipment depreciating?  Or is it more of an overview of "here's what I want my revenue to be, here's my anticipated expenses (broad expenses...rent, etc)" and then go from there?  I think I got lost once I pulled my Quickbooks reports and realized just how detailed these reports are.  

This is only my 2nd study.com course that has an assignment on it.  I'm still waiting for my first one to be graded, so that's adding to my worry in that I just don't know how much/how little they scrutinize these assignments.  Any help is greatly appreciated, thank you in advance!
