Service · Cash Flow & Cost Modeling

Know exactly when you run out
and what changes the answer

Granular operational cash-flow models that connect every line of cost and revenue to bank balance. Track burn rate, identify runway risk, and stress-test cost structures under any demand scenario.

Why It Matters

"We're profitable next quarter" doesn't pay rent

P&L is an opinion; cash is a fact. The number of companies that miss payroll because their accountant said they were profitable is staggering. We build the model that tells the truth.

Use Case

Runway Visibility

Weekly cash position projection with payment-timing detail. AR aging, AP scheduling, payroll cycles, tax payments — everything that hits the bank on its actual day.

Use Case

Cost Stress Testing

Variable vs. fixed cost decomposition, with elasticity assumptions. Model what happens to runway if revenue drops 30%, COGS spikes, or a key contract pushes 60 days.

Use Case

Working Capital Planning

DSO, DPO, inventory days. The hidden cash trap that kills profitable companies — modeled explicitly, not buried in a working capital line.

Frequently Asked

Cash flow modeling FAQ

What's the difference between direct and indirect cash flow?
+

Direct = actual receipts and payments by week (best for short-term operations and liquidity management). Indirect = derived from net income via working capital adjustments (best for medium-term planning and investor reporting). We deliver both.

Can the model integrate with our accounting system?
+

Yes. We support imports from QuickBooks, Xero, NetSuite, and Zoho Books — either via direct CSV mapping or scheduled refresh logic. For ongoing automation, the fractional CFO engagement covers full integration setup.

How often should the model be updated?
+

Weekly for the 13-week direct forecast (especially when runway is under 12 months). Monthly for the 3-year indirect view. We can run the updates for you under a retainer, or train your finance team to do it.

We're growing fast — do we still need this?
+

Especially then. Fast growth consumes working capital. Companies that grow 100% YoY can run out of cash even when "profitable on paper" because every new customer ties up cash in receivables and inventory before the revenue lands. The model makes that visible.
