Cash flow statements and forecasting views
Cash reporting is about timing, not just totals. We model drivers and assumptions so the forecast is explainable and usable for planning.
Service overview
We build cash flow views that connect operating activity to expected cash movement. The work centers on definitions (what counts where), timing assumptions, and scenario inputs your team can update.
Timing
Assumptions that reflect how cash actually moves.
Drivers
Inputs tied to AR, AP, and operating cadence.
Explainability
A model that can be reviewed and maintained.
Common problems solved
- Cash surprises despite “good” revenue months
- Forecasts depend on one spreadsheet owner and break easily
- Timing assumptions aren’t documented or reviewed
- No scenario way to explore timing changes or seasonality
What implementation includes
Model design
- Cash flow structure (weekly/monthly views as appropriate)
- Driver inputs and timing assumptions
- Scenario toggles and exception handling
Delivery + handoff
- Documentation of definitions and data sources
- Update checklist and ownership guidance
- Review template for explaining changes over time
Typical outcomes
Clearer timing
Better visibility into when cash is expected to move.
Scenario-ready
A way to model timing changes without rebuilding the file.
More maintainable
Definitions and workflows reduce single-person dependency.
Decision-support and unlicensed services
This engagement focuses on modeling, definitions, and forecasting structure for internal planning. We explain and model; we do not provide tax, legal, audit/assurance, or investment advice, and we do not recommend regulated actions.
