CashFlow
Cash flow refers to the amount of cash or cash-equivalent that a company receives or expends as
payment(s) to creditors. Cash flow analysis is frequently used to assess a company's liquidity position. It
provides a snapshot of the amount of cash coming into the business, where it is coming from, and how
much is leaving.
Cash flows can be both positive and negative. It is computed by subtracting the cash balance at the start
of a period, also known as the opening balance, from the cash balance at the end of the period (which
could be a month, quarter, or year), also known as the closing balance.
If the difference is positive, you will have more cash at the end of the period. If the difference is
negative, it means you have less cash at the end of a period when compared to the opening balance at
the beginning of the period.
