Understanding Cashflow

What is Casflow Forecasting?

Cash flow forecasts are tools that estimate the flow of money in and out of a business over a specific period. These forecasts help businesses anticipate periods of surplus or deficit, enabling them to plan effectively

[/et_pb_text][/et_pb_column][/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.23.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.23.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”5a17d3c2-1bdb-4915-be09-212c3035c6db” text_font=”Bangers||||||||” text_text_color=”#0033ff” text_font_size=”18px” text_letter_spacing=”2px” custom_margin=”-21px|||||” custom_padding=”0px|||||” hover_enabled=”0″ text_text_shadow_style=”preset1″ global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″]

Key Components:

Inflows (Receipts):

Cash Sales: Immediate payments received for goods or services sold.
Credit Sales: Payments received after a delay, such as 30 or 60 days.
Loans: Borrowed funds to finance operations or investments.
Capital Introduced: Money invested by business owners or shareholders.
Sale of Assets: Cash generated by selling company property or equipment.
Bank Interest Received: Earnings from positive bank balances.

Outflows (Payments):

Cash Purchases: Items or services paid for immediately upon purchase.
Credit Purchases: Payments made after an agreed period.
Fixed Expenses: Rent, utilities, salaries, and insurance.
Variable Expenses: Costs that vary with business activity, such as raw materials or commission-based wages.
Loan Repayments: Scheduled payments to clear borrowed funds.
Tax Payments: VAT or corporate taxes.

Net Cash Flow:

Formula: Net Cash Flow = Total Inflows – Total Outflows

Opening and Closing Balances:

Opening Balance: The amount of money available at the start of the period.

Closing Balance: The remaining money at the end of the period, calculated as: Closing Balance = Opening Balance + Net Cash Flow

Importance of Cash Flow Forecasting

– Short-term Planning: Helps businesses prepare for periods of surplus or deficit.

– Monitoring: Tracks actual performance against forecasts to identify variances.

– Securing Investments: Demonstrates financial health to banks or investors.

– Preventing Insolvency: Helps businesses plan for liquidity and avoid running out of cash.

What is Break-Even Analysis?

Break-even analysis is an essential financial tool used by businesses to determine the point at which they
neither make a profit nor incur a loss. This is called the “break-even point.” It helps businesses understand
the minimum sales volume they must achieve to cover all fixed and variable costs.

[/et_pb_text][/et_pb_column][/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.23.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.23.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.23.4″ _module_preset=”5a17d3c2-1bdb-4915-be09-212c3035c6db” text_font=”Bangers||||||||” text_text_color=”#0033ff” text_font_size=”18px” text_letter_spacing=”2px” custom_margin=”-21px|||||” custom_padding=”0px|||||” text_text_shadow_style=”preset1″ global_colors_info=”{}”]

Key Terms:

Fixed Costs: These include expenses that do not fluctuate with production levels, such as rent, salaries, and insurance.

Variable Costs: These are costs that increase directly with the production of goods or services, such as raw materials, direct labour, and packaging.

Contribution per Unit: This is the amount each unit sold contributes towards covering fixed costs. It’s calculated by subtracting the variable cost per unit from the selling price.

Extended Explanation:

Break-even analysis is especially useful for businesses that operate on thin profit margins or experience high variability
in demand. It helps businesses assess whether their products are priced correctly and if they need to reduce costs or
increase prices to become profitable.

To fully understand the financial dynamics of your business, follow these steps to prepare a break-even chart:

[/et_pb_text][/et_pb_column][/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_3,1_3,1_3″ _builder_version=”4.23.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”1_3″ _builder_version=”4.23.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.23.4″ _module_preset=”3a7df165-f505-4dda-a536-f97f50faadc7″ text_font=”Bangers||||||||” text_text_color=”#ffe900″ text_font_size=”18px” text_letter_spacing=”4px” header_font=”Bangers|700|||||||” header_font_size=”42px” header_line_height=”1.3em” header_2_font=”Bangers||||||||” text_orientation=”justified” background_layout=”dark” min_height=”379.6px” custom_padding=”||0px|||” header_font_size_last_edited=”off|desktop” text_text_shadow_style=”preset1″ header_2_text_shadow_style=”preset1″ locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}”]

1. Determine Fixed Costs:

Identify all expenses that remain constant regardless of sales, such as rent, loan repayments, and full-time staff salaries.

2. Calculate Variable Costs:

These are expenses that vary depending on output, such as costs for materials, packaging, and energy use during production.

[/et_pb_text][/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_3″ _builder_version=”4.23.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.23.4″ _module_preset=”3a7df165-f505-4dda-a536-f97f50faadc7″ text_font=”Bangers||||||||” text_text_color=”#ffe900″ text_font_size=”18px” text_letter_spacing=”4px” header_font=”Bangers|700|||||||” header_font_size=”42px” header_line_height=”1.3em” header_2_font=”Bangers||||||||” text_orientation=”justified” background_layout=”dark” min_height=”267px” custom_margin=”-72px|||||” custom_padding=”||0px|||” header_font_size_last_edited=”off|desktop” text_text_shadow_style=”preset1″ header_2_text_shadow_style=”preset1″ locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}”]

3. Set a Selling Price:

Determine the price at which you will sell each unit of your product or service.

4. Calculate Contribution per Unit:

The formula for this is:

Contribution per Unit = Selling Price per Unit – Variable Costs per Unit

[/et_pb_text][/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_3″ _builder_version=”4.23.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.23.4″ _module_preset=”3a7df165-f505-4dda-a536-f97f50faadc7″ text_font=”Bangers||||||||” text_text_color=”#ffe900″ text_font_size=”18px” text_letter_spacing=”4px” header_font=”Bangers|700|||||||” header_font_size=”42px” header_line_height=”1.3em” header_2_font=”Bangers||||||||” text_orientation=”justified” background_layout=”dark” custom_padding=”||0px|||” header_font_size_last_edited=”off|desktop” text_text_shadow_style=”preset1″ header_2_text_shadow_style=”preset1″ locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}”]

5. Calculate the Break-Even Point:

Use the formula:

Break-even point (in units) = Fixed Costs / Contribution per Unit

6. Plot the Break-Even Chart:

Plot fixed costs, variable costs, total costs, and total revenue lines. The point where total costs and total revenue intersect is the break-even point..

Extended Insight:

Businesses should review their break-even analysis regularly as market conditions, costs, and prices can change,
impacting their financial equilibrium. It’s also vital for businesses to understand the limitations of the break-even analysis,
as it assumes that all units produced are sold, and it does not factor in economies of scale or changes in market demand.

Key Terms:

Fixed Costs: These include expenses that do not fluctuate with production levels, such as rent, salaries, and insurance.

Variable Costs: These are costs that increase directly with the production of goods or services, such as raw materials, direct labour, and packaging.

Contribution per Unit: This is the amount each unit sold contributes towards covering fixed costs. It’s calculated by subtracting the variable cost per unit from the selling price.
