Managing cash in a business is important for continued success. I prefer to see incoming cash in four segments. First, tithes and charity. Second - savings. Third - payroll. Fourth - Operating Expenses. Every deposit no matter how small should be divided into these four segments based on a formula. The formula I use for my businesses is 10% of gross for tithes and charity and 10% of gross for savings. Out of the remaining 80%, 60% to payroll and 40% to operating expenses.  Installing cash segmentation of each deposit allows choices for cash flow and an indicator of daily deposits. These percentages should be created based on a profit and loss of the previous 12 months, 6 month or 30 day averages. A goal in cash segmentation is the predictability of cash on hand after the segmentation which should predict profitability for the day, week and month. Try it for 2 months and see if it works for you. You might have to change the percentages but see what happens.AH
