Cash flow statements are important to business operation and performance, influencing financing and investment decisions. Supply chain and logistics are also important aspects of cash flow management in any business, and solving logistics issues can improve cash flow.
Reducing inventory is one of the main ways businesses can improve their cash flow. Although business drivers operate independently, they also focus on increasing cash flow, so proper understanding of the logistics cycle, measurement of progress and logistics management are all key to reaching a business’s potential.
This course has been designed to help you understand cash flow statements and their role in business operations. It first defines cash flow statements and their various functions, then lists the different components or categories of a cash flow statement and discusses each in detail.
