SYNOPSIS
Cash is the important current asset for the operations of the business. Cash is the
basic input needed to keep the business running on a continuous basis; it is also the ultimate
output expected to be realized by selling the service or product manufactured by the firm.
The firm should keep sufficient cash, neither more nor less. Cash shortage will disrupt the
firm’s manufacturing operations while excessive cash will simply remain idle, without
contributing anything towards the firm’s profitability. Thus, a major function of the financial
Cash is the money which a firm can disburse immediately without any restriction.
The term cash includes coins, currency and cheques held by the firm, and balances in its bank
accounts. Sometimes near-cash items, such as marketable securities or bank deposits, are
also included in cash. The basic characteristic of near-cash assets is that they can readily be

Cash management is a broad term that refers to the collection, concentration, and

Cash management is particularly important for new and growing businesses. Cash flow can
be a problem even when a small business has numerous clients, offers a product superior to
that offered by its competitors, and enjoys a sterling reputation in its industry. Companies
suffering from cash flow problems have no margin of safety in case of unanticipated
expenses. They also may experience trouble in finding the funds for innovation or expansion.
It is, somewhat ironically, easier to borrow money when you have money. Finally, poor cash
It is only natural that major business expenses are incurred in the production of goods or the
provision of services. In most cases, a business incurs such expenses before the
corresponding payment is received from customers. In addition, employee salaries and other
expenses drain considerable funds from most businesses. These factors make effective cash
When cash is received in exchange for products or services rendered, many small
business owners, intent on growing their company and tamping down debt, spend most or all
of these funds. But while such priorities are laudable, they should leave room for businesses
to absorb lean financial times down the line. The key to successful cash management,
establishing effective billing and collection measures, and adhering to budgetary restrictions.
