Cash Flow Statement, a term which you have often come across
in your finance related stuff. It shows the inflow and outflow records of your
entity whether it be business or household. We have already discussed on Cash
Flow Management in our previous blog,
so let’s try to implement the term in real life.
How does Cash Flow work?

Cedrus Wealth Partners, seek to provide a more holistic approach to your hard earned money and less emphasis is given on product-specific approach- unlike the traditional financial intermediaries. We are here today to give you a short description of how cash flow statement works. You can use this method to simplify your finance and can make your own cash flow statement.
Now let’s take a look at a textbook example of a business cash flow statement:
Inflows
| ||
Wages
|
30000
| |
Interest Income
|
200
| |
Total Inflow
|
30200
| |
Outflow
| ||
Mortgage
|
10000
| |
Car Payment
|
5000
| |
Car Maintenance
|
2500
| |
Groceries
|
2000
| |
Dining Out
|
1500
| |
Utilities
|
3500
| |
Clothes
|
3000
| |
Books
|
300
| |
Entertainment
|
1000
| |
Miscellaneous
|
2000
| |
Total Outflows
|
30800
| |
Net Cash Flow
|
-800
|
You might also notice that this cash flow statement is just showing net wages, rather than listing net wages and further reducing the amount with commensurate outflow insurance, premiums, and taxes. Your amount of net pay is what matters, not on how you arrive at that number.
Back to the example, you probably noticed that you have a negative cash flow. But that's not all to it. There’s always non-recurring items which people fail to include.
Suppose,
- You won a scholarship of 10000
- You bought a loan of 15000
- You sold some products online for 5000
- You refurbish your home for 13000
- Lent money to a friend 10000
Now, give a look at the cash flow statement:
Cash Flow - Regular Activities
|
-800
| |
Irregular Activity
| ||
Irregular Inflows
| ||
Won Scholarship
|
10000
| |
Loan
|
15000
| |
Sold Products Online
|
5000
| |
Total Irregular Inflows
|
30000
| |
Irregular Outflows
| ||
Refurbished Home
|
13000
| |
Lent money
|
10000
| |
Total Irregular Outflow
|
23000
| |
Cash Flow - Irregular Activities
|
7000
| |
Net Cash Flow
|
6200
|
Now you can see after adding each and every single detail of
finance which occurred with you over the month changed the whole scenario of
cash flow statement. Now you are in a positive flow.
Using this method you can predict your future cash flow just
by sitting on the couch. The important point to keep in mind is to separate the
regular and irregular activities. We, Cedrus Wealth Partners are happy to help
you and if you have any problem related to finance we are there to help you.
