Why a Cash Flow Forecast Matters
A cash flow forecast is an estimate of the amount of money you expect to flow in and out of your business. It includes all your projected income and expenses and usually covers the next year, though it can also cover a shorter period such as a week or month. Understanding business cash flow is the key to running a successful small business. Effective cash flow management helps you to anticipate and prepare for future highs and lows.
Creating Your Cash Flow Forecast
To assist you in setting up your cash flow forecast, we offer a comprehensive template. This tool is designed to help you systematically plan and monitor your financial activities, ensuring that your resources are allocated effectively to support your business’s growth and sustainability.
Components of the Cash Flow Forecast
For each period, you’ll need to fill in actual or estimated figures against each of the below items:
Opening Balance: The amount of cash at the beginning of the period.
Cash Incoming: Money flowing into the business, such as sales, debtor receipts, grants, and tax rebates.
Total Incoming: Sum of all cash incoming items.
Cash Outgoing: Payments made by your company, including accountant fees, advertising and marketing, purchases, rent and rates, and utilities.
Total Outgoing: Sum of all cash outgoing items.
Net Cash Flow: Calculated by subtracting the total outgoing cash from the total incoming cash.
Closing Balance: Determined by adding the opening balance and net cash flow.
By diligently maintaining and reviewing your cash flow forecast, you can anticipate financial challenges and make strategic decisions to ensure your business’s financial stability.
