Cash flow is the lifeblood of any business. Understanding your cash flow is essential for maintaining financial stability, making informed decisions, and planning for the future.

In the financial reporting arsenal of any business, the cash flow statement holds a place of critical importance. Often overshadowed by its more famous counterparts - the income statement and balance sheet - the cash flow statement is, in many ways, a more realistic gauge of a company's financial health.

Understanding your own companies’ finances is a key component of your company’s success. This financial visibility comes from good record keeping and reporting these records in such a way that a business owner has information to make smarter business decisions.
