You are to create an operating budget for 2017 based on the following information (revenues and expenses). Use the Excel file provided to create the budget.

Information for 2017

Calculate the gross revenue that was generated by Savalife Physician Group in 2017.

Assume that 9% of the revenue was uncollected due to bad debt.

Calculate the net revenue for Savalife for 2017.

There are 4 physicians on staff.

Two make a salary of 198,000 per year

Two make a salary of 220,000 per year

There are 7 staff members

1 office manager makes a salary of 60,000 per year

4 RNs make a salary of 55,000 per year

3 clerical staff make a salary of 37,000 per year

Supplies are based on office visits only (new and established patients). The supply cost per visit is $23.50.

You pay professional dues for the nurses and the physicians.

Nurses: $180 per year

Physicians: $250 per year

Rent for the building and furniture is 15,600 per month

Utilities, phone and the internet cost 5000 per month

Payroll taxes are 20% of the total salaries.

Now that you know the activity for 2017, you must prepare a proposed budget (revenues and expenses) for 2018. Here are the assumptions for 2018.

Your number of visits and consults will remain the same

35% of your total revenue comes from Medicare

Because you met your value based goals, Medicare will increase your payment by 1% for Medicare patients.

You have improved your collections and therefore, your allowance for doubtful accounts has decreased to 7.5%

The physicians will receive a 5% raise

Your manager will receive a 2% raise

Your nurses will receive a 3% raise

Your Clerical staff will receive a 3.5% raise

Rent will increase to 16000 per month

Payroll taxes are still 20%, but are based on the new total salaries (based on the raises).

All other numbers remain the same.
