Cash Flow Forecast (Rolling 4 Weeks)
What this is: A live, rolling week-by-week projection of actual cash in and out, separate from your profit statement. Type each week's numbers in, the week-end cash updates instantly and carries forward as next week's starting cash.
Used in: Volume 07, Chapter 4: Cash Flow vs Profit · Chapter 10: Budgeting and Forecasting
Fill in Week 1 first, its ending cash automatically becomes Week 2's starting cash, and so on down the line.
Warning
If any week's projected ending cash is negative or uncomfortably low, act now, ask a customer to pay sooner, delay a non-critical purchase, or draw on the Emergency Fund. Never wait until the week actually arrives.
