FAQs
Cash Flow Forecasts FAQs
What is a cash flow forecast?
A projection of the money coming in and going out of your business over a period, usually month by month.
How is cash flow different from profit?
Profit shows whether you earn more than you spend over a period. Cash flow shows when money actually moves, which affects whether you can pay bills on time.
How often should I update my forecast?
Ideally monthly, comparing actual figures with the forecast and adjusting as things change.
Do lenders need a cash flow forecast?
Most lenders ask for one as part of a loan application, usually alongside a business plan.
Can you include tax payments in the forecast?
Yes. We include VAT, corporation tax and other significant payments so there are no surprises.
