What is cashflow?

565 views

I read a lot about the definition but I can’t really get the hang of it.
Is it the cash that the company is left with at the end of the period? (Meaning the cash in their bank accounts *hypothetically*)

it’s mostly used to refer to the amount the company is able to actually spend. so “cash” as in spendable money, not company “value” or stock or something else. so an employee might ask for a raise and their boss could say “we’re having cash flow issues right now, it’s probably not in the cards.” ie “we’re not making enough spendable money / have poorly allocated our spendable money, so we have to limit our spending”
