Act as a senior FP&A and treasury analyst specializing in inflation and foreign-exchange planning.
Develop an inflation and foreign-exchange budget adjustment plan using the information below.
Organization:

Planning period:
{{planning_period}}
Original budget:

Inflation assumptions:
{{inflation_assumptions}}
Currency exposures and rates:
{{currency_exposures}}
Contracts, pricing, and pass-through terms:

Hedging and treasury information:

Analysis requirements:
1. Identify budget lines exposed to:
- general inflation;
- wage inflation;
- commodity inflation;
- energy inflation;
- supplier-specific price increases;
- foreign-currency transaction exposure;
- translation exposure;
- economic exposure; and
- imported inflation.
2. Separate:
- local-currency costs;
- foreign-currency costs;
- foreign-currency revenue;
- hedged exposures;
- unhedged exposures;
- fixed-price contracts;
- indexed contracts; and
- pass-through arrangements.
3. Adjust the budget by month or quarter using supplied inflation indices, timing assumptions, and exchange rates.
4. Distinguish:
- rate effect;
- volume effect;
- price effect;
- timing effect;
- mix effect;
- hedge effect; and
- accounting translation effect.
5. Build base, favorable, and adverse scenarios.
6. Quantify:
- revenue impact;
- cost impact;
- gross-margin effect;
- operating-profit effect;
- cash-flow effect;
- working-capital effect; and
- covenant or funding implications, where relevant.
7. Identify natural hedges, pricing actions, contract renegotiation opportunities, sourcing alternatives, and treasury responses.
8. Separate the economic effect from the accounting presentation where relevant.
9. Flag assumptions that require tax, treasury, accounting, legal, procurement, or commercial validation.
10. Do not invent inflation rates, exchange rates, hedge terms, pass-through rights, tax rules, or accounting treatment.
11. State whether rates are spot, average, closing, budget, contracted, or scenario rates.
12. Present all calculations transparently.
Present the result as:
{{output_format}}
Include:
- exposure map;
- inflation and FX assumptions table;
- adjusted budget;
- rate-volume-price bridge;
- scenario comparison;
- margin and cash-flow effects;
- hedge and natural-hedge analysis;
- pricing and sourcing responses;
- key risks;
- validation requirements; and
- monthly monitoring recommendations.Customization Variables
Replace each variable shown in double curly brackets with accurate information from your own professional context.
{{planning_period}}
Planning Period
Example: Example: FY2027 monthly budget
Specify the budget period and frequency.
{{original_budget}}
Original Budget
Example: Paste revenue, cost, margin, cash-flow, and working-capital budget lines.
Use currency and unit labels consistently.
{{inflation_assumptions}}
Inflation Assumptions
Example: Provide approved wage, commodity, supplier, energy, and general inflation assumptions by period.
Use approved internal assumptions or reliable external indices.
{{currency_exposures}}
Currency Exposures and Rates
Example: List revenue, cost, balance-sheet, currency, amount, timing, and applicable rates.
Identify whether each rate is spot, average, closing, budget, contracted, or scenario.
{{contract_terms}}
Contracts, Pricing, and Pass-Through Terms
Example: Describe fixed prices, indexation, repricing rights, pass-through clauses, and contract dates.
Contract terms determine how much inflation or FX movement can be recovered.
{{hedging_information}}
Hedging and Treasury Information
Example: List forwards, options, swaps, natural hedges, maturities, rates, and hedge coverage.
Include both financial hedges and operational natural hedges.
{{output_format}}
Output Format
Choose the format appropriate for modeling, review, or management action.
Expected Output
An adjusted budget with transparent inflation and FX assumptions, exposure mapping, scenario comparisons, rate-volume-price bridges, margin and cash effects, hedge analysis, response options, and validation requirements.

Prompt Anatomy
This breakdown explains how the prompt’s major components work together to guide the AI toward a useful, reliable, and well-structured response.
Role
Positions the AI as an FP&A and treasury specialist in inflation and FX planning.
Context
Combines budget lines, inflation assumptions, currency exposures, contracts, and hedges.
Task
Requires budget adjustment, scenario modeling, exposure analysis, and response planning.
Constraints
Prevents invented rates, hedge terms, legal rights, tax rules, and accounting treatment.
Output Structure
Requires exposure maps, adjusted budgets, bridges, scenarios, margin effects, responses, and monitoring.
Input Variables
Organization, period, original budget, inflation assumptions, exposures, contract terms, hedges, and output format.
Customization Tips
- Label every exchange rate by type and date.
- Separate transaction, translation, and economic exposure.
- Provide contract repricing and pass-through terms before assuming costs can be recovered.
- Distinguish general inflation from wage, commodity, supplier, and energy inflation.
- Include hedge maturities and coverage periods so budget effects align with actual treasury positions.
