The heart of the cash budget.Sales are ultimately transformed into cash receipts
and cash disbursements.Cash forecast is only as accurate as the sales forecast
from which it is derived.

Forecast Cash Receipts
Address the timing of cash collection of sales.Record all cash receipts when actually received (i.e.,
the cash method of accounting).Determine the collection pattern for credit sales; then
add cash sales.
Monitor closely slow and nonpayers.

Forecast Cash Disbursements
Record disbursements when you expect to make them.
Start with those disbursements that are fixed amounts
due on certain dates.Review the business checkbook to ensure accurate
estimates.Try making a daily list of the items that generate cash
and those that consume it.

The “Big Three” of Cash Flow Management
Accounts Receivable
Accounts Payable
Inventory
![Page 15: Managing cash flow, Slide Presentation](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022052722/555b25b4d8b42aa9738b5536/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Accounts Receivable
A sale is not a sale until you collect the money.The goal with accounts receivable is to collect your
company’s cash as fast as you can.About 90 percent of industrial and wholesale sales are
on credit, and 40 percent of retail sales are on account.
![Page 16: Managing cash flow, Slide Presentation](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022052722/555b25b4d8b42aa9738b5536/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Accelerating Accounts Receivable
Ask customers to fax or e-mail orders.
Send invoices when goods are shipped.
Highlight the due date on invoices.
Restrict customers’ credit until past-due bills are paid
Deposit checks and credit card receipts daily.
![Page 17: Managing cash flow, Slide Presentation](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022052722/555b25b4d8b42aa9738b5536/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Accounts Payable
Stretch out payment times as long as possible without damaging company’s credit rating.
Verify all invoices before paying them.
Take advantage of cash discounts.
Negotiate the best possible terms with your suppliers.
Use credit cards wisely.
![Page 18: Managing cash flow, Slide Presentation](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022052722/555b25b4d8b42aa9738b5536/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Inventory
Monitor it closely; it can drain a company’s cash.Avoid inventory “overbuying.” It ties up valuable
cash at a zero rate of return.Arrange for inventory deliveries at the latest possible
date.Negotiate quantity discounts with suppliers when
possible.

Avoiding the Cash Crunch
Consider bartering, exchanging goods and services for other goods and services, to conserve cash.
Trim overhead costs. For example:Ask for discounts and “freebies” Periodically evaluate expenses.Lease rather than buy.Avoid nonessential cash outlays.Negotiate fixed loan payments to coincide with your
company’s cash flow.
