Invest in Cash Forecaster where all the hard work and difficult formulas have already been calculated for you. Save time, look professional and get the job done fast.

How a client explained it: “You can spend your time producing accurate figures rather than trying to work out how to make the balance sheet balance with the cash flow forecast!” Tim Moorhouse.

3. VAT (Sales Tax/GST) entries calculated automatically

Making the correct VAT-inclusive* or VAT-exclusive* entries are complicated. Getting them on the right reports can be tricky too.

It’s important to differentiate between the ‘net of VAT* (Sales Tax) figures,‘ which are reported on the profit and loss projection reports; vs the numbers that are shown on the cash flow forecasts.

However, this is all taken care of with our financial projections template for you.

Cash Forecaster Software makes this quick and easy. VAT* entries are done for you. You just need to know which products, expenses or services are Vatable*…simple.

 * The financial projections template is also set up to account for sales tax and/or GST.

4. Capital expenditure, net of asset disposals and asset depreciation calculated automatically

Most small businesses have capital expenditure. They also have assets disposals  too. Additionally, businesses depreciate their assets over time. In addition to including these numbers on the cash flow projections, the need to be incorporated on to the projected balance sheet too.

Capital expenditure could include buildings, motor vehicles, plant, equipment, computers, furniture and other assets.

Using our financial projections template you enter your opening fixed assets. Then add any new planned-for capital expenditure and any planned disposals in the forecast period.

It’s extremely easy to enter the asset type; the fixed asset cost; the fixed asset purchase date; the VAT (Sales Tax) rate; the sale date of assets disposed of; and the software does the rest for you, including automatic depreciation calculations.

All the numbers are put in the right places on right reports, in the correct month ending with a projected balance sheet at the end of your forecast period(s), be it 3 year forecasts, 5 year forecasts or a shorter 12 month forecast.

5. Business loans, hire purchase investor finance made easy

Our forecasting template incorporates business bank loans or hire purchase contracts for fixed asset purchases.

Your financial projections can also be used to calculate any bank overdraft facility requirements for your small business.

This easy to use loan function includes many different loans types that are available to small businesses. The template has built-in loan and hire purchase functionality to suit most types of business loan facility. The outstanding amount on any loan or hire purchase is included on the projected balance sheet at the end of each month of the forecast reports, and on the summary yearly balance sheet report.

6. Sensitivity analysis will save you time

Another time-saving feature of our cash flow Excel template is the sensitivity analysis tool. It’s important to stress test your cash flow and profit and loss forecasts.

With Cash Forecaster, this is made to be easy. With the click of a button, you can quickly increase or decrease your sales and/or cost of sales. This feature saves you time by not having to re-enter your data over and again.

Banks and investors often want to know your best case or worst case business scenarios, before they will lend or invest. Our simple financial projections template makes the task of your what-if scenarios quick and easy.

7. Need a feature listed in Cash Forecaster?

Everyone benefits when our Cash Forecaster software is upgraded. Most of the new features we include are suggestions from customer that have already purchased. Recently a client was recommended to use our software by Lloyds Bank Plc. This customer asked for a specific report, so we upgraded Cash Forecaster free of charge, as it would benefit future customers too.

Projected balance sheet format

The projected balance sheet format uses the standard balance sheet. An example of which is shown in Figure 1.

The format used for the projected balance sheet is with the assets and liabilities in the top section; with share capital and reserves in the bottom section.

This is a key commitments to our customers. So if you’d like us to add a new feature that will help you prepare cash flow forecasts for your small business, we will include it free of charge. The only caveats are: the feature required is possible to do; and we feel that it will benefit other clients too.
