    Thank you for making this video, it is extremely clear to understand. My challenge though is that I am now starting a home business, invested everything plus a loan to get the structure in place with furnishings. I simply don't have money from a previous month. So there is no opening balance, but I need to do a forecast as a requirement to open a business account. Any suggestions how best to navigate this?

    • @TwoTeachers
      @TwoTeachers  8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      The opening balance is whatever is the closing balance left from the previous month, whether that is 0 or a negative amount i.e. - 1,000. So if you had - 1,000 in January that would be the opening balance in February. Any income from February would then minus the 1,000 making the closing balance from February. Best of luck with your business 😁

    When completing a forecast how do you input the forecast for things such as building repairs for example? I have previous years accounts, do I split it up over the month or just guess in one of the months that there could be a repair?

    • @TwoTeachers
      @TwoTeachers  7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      It is best to try and be as accurate as possible so you can get an accurate forecast. If you have previous years accounts you could look at the historic data and see if there are certain month and amounts that were common for building repairs and then allocate them accordingly to the best of your ability. As it is a forecast there is some estimating however using historical data could help this be as accurate as possible. Hope this helps 👍

  • @AmmarKhan-vs2ti
    @AmmarKhan-vs2ti ปีที่แล้ว +2

    I want to know if i pay rent for 1 year in advance, how shall i put in cash flow forecasting ? I shall put monthly rent amount in each month forecasting or one year rent amount in the month i will pay?

    • @TwoTeachers
      @TwoTeachers  ปีที่แล้ว

      If you pay rent for one year in advance, you should put the one year rent amount in the month you make the payment in your cash flow forecast. This means that the monthly rent amount should not be included in the cash flow forecast for the remaining months of the year.
      For example, if you pay £12,000 for one year of rent in January, you would include the £12,000 payment in your January cash flow forecast and then exclude the monthly rent amount from your February through December forecasts.
      This approach accurately reflects the cash flow impact of paying rent in advance and helps you to avoid double-counting the payment in your monthly forecasts.

  • @onelove762
    @onelove762 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

    is there a need to include capital (under cash inflow) and equipment/fixed assets ( under cash outflow)if its not a new business?

    • @TwoTeachers
      @TwoTeachers  2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      If the capital and equipment/fixed assets transactions are not significant or relevant to the current financial reporting period for an existing business, there may not be a need to include them in the cash flow statement. However, if these transactions are substantial or if disclosure requirements mandate their inclusion, then it would be appropriate to include them to provide stakeholders with a comprehensive view of the cash flows within the business.

    hi
    Could you please tell me if there is any technique or mechanism to forecast cash flow for company?

    • @TwoTeachers
      @TwoTeachers  ปีที่แล้ว

      Good question, there isn't really a set technique or mechanism Bikram. A business just needs to identify all of its predicted income and outgoings for each month then put them into a table to calculate the cash flow for the set period. It's just a prediction to help make business decisions and it's not an exact science so the actual inflows and outflows will vary.

  • @Plant.Eat.Licious
    @Plant.Eat.Licious 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Hello and thank you for your videos, now I am starting the process of a cash flow forecast and I do not understand the net cash and closing balance. Can you explain how you calculated the amounts in the video. Thank you.

    • @TwoTeachers
      @TwoTeachers  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Net cash flow is the total cash inflow minus the total cash outflow. In the video for April that would be 6,750 - 4625 = 2125. Net cash flow = 2125. Closing balance is the opening balance plus net cash flow. In April in the video this is 1,200 + 2,125 (from the previous calculation) = 3,325. Closing balance = 3,325. Hope this helps 👍
