cash Budget
A cash budget involves detailed estimates of anticipated cash receipts and disbursements for the budget period. It is generally recognized as a useful and essential management tool. Effective cash management entails having the right amounts of cash in the right places at the right times. It involves managing flows of cash and treats cash as an income-producing asset rather than simply as currency for paying bills. Even if a company does not prepare extensive budgets for sales and production, it should budget cash receipts and disbursements.
