Cash flow forecasting

Profit and cash are different things. A profitable business can still run short when customers pay late, a large BAS falls due, or stock must be purchased before a busy season.

What we do

We build a 3-month cash flow forecast from your accounting data. It includes customer receipts, wages, supplier payments, GST, PAYG withholding, super, and loan repayments. Each month we compare the forecast with what happened, update it, and plan what to do about any month where cash runs low.

What you receive

  • A 3-month forecast showing your expected bank balance each month
  • Your lowest cash point, and the month it falls in
  • Specific actions to cover any shortfall, such as chasing a debtor, timing a purchase or arranging finance early

Questions

How accurate is the forecast?

The first month is the most reliable. We compare the forecast with your actual results every month, so it gets sharper over time.
