The Visual Language of Finance™Cashflow Dialog
The Cashflow Dialog tool is based on the fundamental principle that with only two parameters, turnover and EBITDA margin, one can simulate a company's forward-looking cash flow and can influence the balance sheet and income statement. This basic principle has been further developed in the Cashflow Dialog. It allows one to, in addition to sales and EBITDA margin, also simulate other parameters such as stock turnover, extended credit to the customer, and received credit from the supplier. From these assumptions, the purpose of the tool is to create an understanding of how different outcomes in the firm's activities affect the forward-looking cash flow, balance sheet, and income statement. What if the company gets its customers to pay faster? Or what if the company's stock turnover rate decreases? Cashflow Dialog makes it easy for you to simulate various business events to obtain clear visual feedback on how the company will be impacted. Cashflow Dialog can be paired with BonanzaGraf for deeper analysis of key figures and to produce graphs of the historical and the forecasted financial outcomes.
