  4. Reasons for Cash Flow Problems • Difficulty in collecting receivables (example) • Seasonality of sales (example) • Unexpected variation in sales • Policies on how payments are made to suppliers (example) • Large expenditures up front for customer projects • Capital projects • Ineffective inventory management © Mark T. Schenkel

  5. Measuring Cash Flow • Cash Flow from Operating Activities • Cash Flow from Investing Activities • Cash Flow from Financing Activities © Mark T. Schenkel

  6. Bleed Rate • In periods of negative cash flow, entrepreneur must measure and understand the “bleed rate” of the venture • Bleed rate = monthly negative cash flow • Understand source of bleed • If business has operating bleed focus on time to operating break-even • If business has operational positive cash flow, keep overhead and new fixed costs to a minimum until overall positive cash flow is achieved © Mark T. Schenkel

  7. Time Out of Cash Cash on Hand + Cash Available from Financing Sources TOC = _____________________________________________ Monthly Bleed Rate Typically Measured in Months (sometimes in weeks or days) Gives time measure of cash remaining © Mark T. Schenkel

  8. Extending Time Out of Cash • Decrease bleed by cutting costs • Decrease time to break-even by accelerating sales growth • If pricing is inelastic, price increase possible • Raise more money…. © Mark T. Schenkel

  9. Managing Cash During Inflation • Keep overhead low – Did I mention that Cash is King?? • Build cash reserves to buffer short term price increases that precede higher prices on your part • Watch your margins carefully. Worry about growing profits, not sales © Mark T. Schenkel

  10. Managing Cash During Inflation • Don't lock into long-term contracts that have narrow margins with large customers • When inflation heats up even a little, be aggressive with frequent small price increases rather than waiting and trying to catch up at some point with one big jump • Pay down variable interest loans ASAP to avoid interest rate hikes in the future © Mark T. Schenkel
