CASH BUDGET
It’s often said that it’s important to be able to budget and manage your cash flow. Well, in these difficult times for all of you, it may even be a matter of survival. Here’s a sample cash budget you can use to help you do just that.
Forecasting your cash inflows and outflows will help you anticipate and determine your financing needs, as well as speed up the processing of your applications for financial assistance should the need arise.
Our aim is to provide you with a simple, easy-to-use tool, so feel free to adapt it to your needs. The important thing is that you understand how it works. You can even make your own tool using Excel.
It’s not a question of drawing up a projected income statement listing all your company’s income and expenses, but rather of determining and scheduling your projected cash inflows and outflows according to the reality that each of you is currently facing.
Factor into your budget any payment facilities or concessions obtained from your business partners, and be realistic about your cash flow.
Please note that our cash budget does not take into account cash available on credit cards or lines of credit. Consider this cash as a possible source of financing, and don’t forget to take into account any repayments you’ve made.
For those who would like to go further, we offer a more detailed cash budget developed by the Clinique d’accompagnement entrepreneurial du Québec.
BUSINESS PLAN TEMPLATE
A business plan, when starting up a company, helps determine the company’s direction and strategy in order to prove its viability and find potential partners (partner, bank, investor…).
In general, it defines the target clientele, needs, products and services offered, and explains how the company will market its products and attract more customers. You need to determine what strategy your future business will use to generate revenue.
Although it’s not compulsory, it’s a very important asset in many situations.
