*** Adarus Business Plan v2.0 ***

    Develop a professional business plan quickly and easily with the help of
    four step-by-step wizards (Sales, Expense, Asset/Loan, Business Plan). This
    Microsoft Excel Add-in and template creates all financial reports needed
    for a business plan such as the cash flow, income, balance sheet,
    break-even and financial ratios. A formatted business plan outline (title page,
    table of contents) is created in Microsoft Word. Adarus' One-Step tools (Print,
    Scenario, Chart) are powerful, time-saving features.
