IGCSE Business P1
« on: May 15, 2010, 11:26:35 am »
Hey :)
I'm hoping someone can help me out with Cash Flow. Its the only topic i'm not too sure about..
-Cash flow forecasting, why it's necessary, what causes cash flow problems and how to rectify them.
Thanks!

Cash flow is basically the flow of cash in and out of a business.
Cash flow forecasting can be useful when planning budgets etc
Cash flow problems can be caused by many things, most notably debts as you may be unable to pay back the debt/loan etc

Well you have today and tomorrow. Business is pretty easy once you have a strong foundation. Do past papers to get the hang of how to answer questions and what they look for in each answer.

This is helpful too

That's impossible to know, as none of us has received the paper in advance, which would defeat the purpose of taking the exam. Just study hard, and do past papers. The curve will take care of it.

OP's question: Cash flow problems arise when more cash is flowing out of a business (e.g. for raw materials, wages, expenses etc) than is flowing in (e.g. from sales). In order that the business can survive/ meet its commitments, it will borrow, short term, from a bank
to cover the difference between income and expenditure.

Adding on to furqan's answer, if the case study/question indicates the firm is "international" then it's possible you'll have to draw an organisational chart for 2-3 countries to get full marks.
