About the session
Cash flow reflects a companies ability to meet its financial obligations, but how does it differ from profit?
Some business owners will use their bank balance as the barometer of how well their business is performing. However, this gives no visibility of any upcoming liabilities or monies owed.
Cash is King, and business owners need to have an understanding of cash flow to run a well managed business, and more importantly, not run out!
So, what is the different between your profit and cash and how can you better manage and forecast cash flow?
Topics covered
- How does cash flow differ from profit and loss
- Why is it important to understand the differences
- How do you create a cash flow forecast?
- Why do people ask for both a profit and loss forecast and a cash flow forecast?
Who is it for?
Business owners who want a better understanding of cash flow management and forecasting.
