Cash Flow Calculator

Back to Previous Page
Having adequate cash flow is essential to keep your business running. If you run out of available cash, you run the risk of not being able to meet your current obligations such as your payroll, accounts payable and loan payments. Use this calculator to help you determine the cash flow generated by your business.

This Financial Calculator requires a Browser with Java(TM) applet Support. If you are seeing this message you will need to download SUN's Java(TM) Plug-in. This can be done simply, and automatically, by clicking the link below:

Definitions
Cash at beginning of period
Total cash available at the beginning of the period.

Cash at end of period
Total cash calculated for the end of the period. If this amount is lower than your beginning balance, your business has a negative cash flow. If this amount is negative, you may need to increase your cash flow to maintain your current operations.

Received from customers
Cash received from your customers for the period. Make sure this amount is based on your actual receipts, not your booked sales. An increase in your accounts receivable may increase your profit on paper, but it does not change your cash flow.

Other cash receipts
Any other cash received during this period. Again, make sure this amount is based on the amount actually received.

For inventory
Total cash paid for the period to purchase inventory. Like your cash received, your cash paid during a period should be your actual cash payments.

For insurance
Total cash paid for insurance, advertising, rent payments and lease payments.

For payroll

Any other cash received from your investment activities.

Capital expenditures
Cash used to purchase capital equipment or land for use in your business.

Other Use

New borrowing
Net new borrowing for the period. Include new borrowing as well as the net increase in any line of credit borrowing.
