# Cash Flow Forecast
A cash forecast is not a P&L on a different template. It tracks when cash actually moves, not when revenue is recognized or expenses are accrued. Precision on timing is the entire point.
## Two Horizons, Two Approaches
Run two forecasts in parallel. The 13-week forecast is a bottom-up, week-by-week view of actual cash in and out. It is operational. The 12-month forecast is a top-down driver-based model used for planning and runway. They should agree in the overlapping weeks - if they diverge, the 13-week is right and the 12-month needs recalibration.
## 13-Week Forecast Structure
For each week, project: collections from customers (use AR aging plus expected new bookings converted with your average days-to-collect), payroll runs (use the exact pay schedule), vendor payments (use AP aging plus expected new invoices), recurring SaaS and fixed costs (pull from your vendor contracts), and any scheduled debt or tax payments. Sum to net cash change per week, accumulate to ending cash balance. Flag any week where ending cash falls below your minimum operating reserve (typically one to two months of fixed costs).
