CASH FLOW CHALLENGES
Cash flow is notoriously hard to forecast, but the importance
of analysing and structuring cashflows, particularly in a financial
transaction are paramount. In addition, forecasting leverage, leasing and
tax issues add to this complexity.
Understanding cash flow facilitates better control over a business,
enables easier comparisons between actuals and projections and
enables managers to identify unanticipated trends and apply corrective
actions.
