The cash flow budget tells if you have sufficient
money to pay your bills at the end of the month.
A cash flow budget is a chronological overview of expected income and
expenses over a given period of time. The cash flow budget looks much like the
operating budget. It has many of the same categories.
Real money
The cash flow budget focus on the cash (money) that actually has to be taken
out of the cash box or the bank. Cash to pay salary or debtors. It also focuses
on cash that actually is received from customers. Cash you can see in the cash
box or in a bank statement.
Capital requirement
A cash flow budget shows a company´s monthly capital requirement. Some
months there might be lack of cash to keep the business in operation. If the
cash flow budget shows lack of money at the end of a month you have to find the
money which is needed. It can be found in different ways:
- You can borrow more money from the bank
- You can make your debtors pay earlier
- You can delay the payment to your suppliers
- You can cut down expenses
- You can postpone a larger investment
- You can stop withdrawing money to yourself
- You can introduce ´Cash on delivery´
- You can combine all of the possibilities

accountants". The cash flow budget is a bit more difficult. There are more unknown figures to calculate and evaluate. This demands a clear view of the
budgets. However, it is still basically common sense so you can do it.
